[000:00:00;00] well, how am i? what is the current humanitarian situation in the city of mariupol? well, i can say that, unfortunately, not all impulses survived this winter , and what happened in mariupol there in the winter is a continuation of the concentration camp genocide that the russian federation set up in our city , that is, part of the people i was just dying from the fact that they simply had no heat in the houses destroyed by the russians, and that is why people simply fell asleep and did not wake up at a temperature below zero, and there are a lot of these facts, and the second thing that you said is true. the people of mariupol line up there for any kind of food, because the food

crisis is really one of the first problems in mariupol, well, the occupiers there on the one hand show how they are rebuilding something there , beautiful pictures, ah, a city of a hundred thousand people, just i won't say that everyone is dying of hunger, but many people have a need for food , and many people are simply proud and do not get the number of calories that are necessary for functioning and in general for human life, and the same with medical also, many people do not receive services from heart and vascular diseases, there are kidney diseases, that is, many people who contacted and told that they were forced

to send medicine for their relatives in mariupol from the controlled territory of ukraine. and in general, this is the situation. it has been almost a year of occupation, that is, or people even there went to berdyansk to get medicine for the occupied berdyansk, well , for the occupiers, mariupol knows that it only means military importance. well, here is the situation there regarding humanitarian aid. this is for them. it is not important at all and they only do what they need there in order to use the city as a large concentration camp and as a military logistics hub more than 400,000 lived in the city of

mariupol on the eve of the large-scale invasion of the russian federation. in general, together with the emigrants from other cities of ukraine, there were more than 500,000 e-e in mariupol. these are the e-e ukrainians who moved from various occupied cities since 2014. e-e, as of now , no more than 100-120,000 live in mariupol indeed, the people of mariupol, and all the other nationalities, let's say, who don't even speak russian well, were imported by a terrorist country, allegedly for the reconstruction of the city, and the local residents with whom we talk say that the public transport, which is very bad in the city of mariupol, is already

er, builders from other nationalities and more in transport than mariupol residents. actually , we can see there, you are now showing my native mariupol state university , which was also destroyed by the occupiers. say, the population is 100,000, but the death rate is about the same, even higher, when half a million mariupolians lived in mariupol, well, that is, there are many people there during the winter, and they are mostly elderly people with various chronic diseases, but these are the people who, if it were not for the russian occupation, they would still they lived for 5-10 years. but they simply died because there is no medical care

, medical care and personal nutrition, and they survived. many continued to live in basements this winter. of the houses that you are showing now, well, it does not fit into the understanding of what is normal there, but it is a real fact that people lived in basements during the winter , and the occupier of this time tells how he is building some beehives there with unknown materials, not withstanding any technical conditions, without a foundation. there are some uh, well, just a beautiful picture p dmytro what is happening with the demolition of the houses of the residents of mariupol, how massive is this phenomenon now

? mass mass history what do you know about this? this is really a mass history. the occupiers continue to simply clean up the traces of their crimes, because when the planes in march destroyed the city, the carpet was destroyed by the planes with 500s of fabs, when the houses were simply made of cards and people who were in shelters in basements, they just unfortunately , many people were simply buried there and when the russians began to disassemble the rubble, they saw how many people they had killed, 5,000 people, and they simply decided how to hide their tracks crimes, they simply did not even pick up the bodies of the dead, but simply took all this with construction debris to the landfills, now they are, well, it’s just not even there nazi germany, er

, world war ii, they simply make new building materials from all this , processing it into crumbs there concrete together with the bodies of the people of mariupol and this is simply the savagery of the 21st century, but unfortunately we saw this photo of this new building material, well, this is a separate page of the international court of justice, there should be one about it and they are really being demolished whole blocks there, my house on the left bank was demolished, the sea boulevard was completely demolished, bohdan khmelnytskyi boulevard is now being demolished, well, that is, there are not even dozens there, well, there are more - there are hundreds of houses in which the residents of mariupol used to live , we don't have time, literally, very briefly, we will remind you that today

by the way, it is the anniversary of the bombing of the drama theater and what can we do now or sum up how many people died there. for whom it actually became a fraternal nu il see the last time i was personally in the drama theater on march 14, there were very a lot, that is, we were with my family on march 12-13 , 14. we came and talked with people and there were a lot of people, and unfortunately we will never know the final number , but these are hundreds of people whom the russian federation simply killed by dropping two aerial bombs therefore, this is such a tragic page for the history of our city, this is a symbol of our city - this is the life of our mariupol residents, and the russian federation has once again shown the simple

bottom of what it committed in the genocide of the ukrainian people, remember all the pictures from where it was written specifically for those russian pilots, what are the children and dmitrek? i wanted to ask you one more question . yesterday, the day before yesterday, we spoke with the spokesman of the international committee of the red cross, oleksandr vlasenko. in that he provides various assistance to the occupying authorities. well , he provides humanitarian aid to the people of mariupol, and provides computers, i.e. office equipment, to the local occupying authorities in order for the occupation authorities to issue russian passports, to force them to obtain russian passports, to keep records of ukrainian children who

are illegally transported to the territory of russia, and the red cross rejects all the accusations, saying that well, we are simply helping to somehow work with the local population of this administration so that the local population well, to somehow improve his life in the occupied territories, in this absentee conflict, on whose side should international organizations provide various office equipment for the occupation authorities? from myself, my position may not be entirely correct, but my personal position is that it is the same as if the red cross would come because you were lead or in buchenwald and to the nazis in 40 there in the fourth year and said and this is a computer for you, please. it will be easier for you to account the prisoners of your camps so that god forbid one of them dies of hunger and what do you think, where is the truth in this story? well, you know, it looks like a story when someone brings up the cartridges of a killer, uh, if

we're talking about food medicine is definitely a story that can be, but if this story is from with the help of the administration of bullying processes for the people of mariupol it's just that there's no need to be eh, taking into account the fact that the occupiers are now forcing, simply forcing , eh, the people of mariupol to go and get the russian passport of this rag for them to use passports and receive passports of the terrorist state of the russian federation, this should also be considered in relation to international law there

, because this is such a fact that assistance is not to the people of mariupol, what about the abuse of the people of mariupol? thank you very much, dmytro dmytro zamzin, deputy of the mariupol city council, listen, let's talk a little about the situation at the front, in particular, under bakhmut, mykola volohko , the commander of the tera reconnaissance unit as part of the azov tactical group in donetsk region, is not here now and joins us directly etenu p mykola good morning to you good morning glory to ukraine glory to the heroes p mykola well you know austin lloyd the minister of defense of the united states which, emphasizing, will decide only in ukraine should she keep bakhmut or not? well, we know the answer was zelenskyi's bet, where he confirmed it, lloyd also said that this is zelenskyi's battle, and actually he decides how many soldiers there should be, nevertheless, the politician called the numbers from unnamed sources sources about the american government that the losses of ukraine in bakhmut are large and this is what

the situation is now in bakhmut that the situation there is difficult but stable about losses yes , of course, very large losses in general during this war we suffered very large injuries and despite the fact that these losses are smaller than the losses of the enemy, but in terms of quality, of course, we lose the best, the best people, the best ukrainians, and russia is losing such a tactic, it already has its own junk, and in general , i find it difficult to say something good about people who decided to go to someone else's side. the land with the aim of seizing it, but despite

all this , it’s worth it . ask russia for how many months, for six or seven months, nothing seems to be happening, so this is the situation. they will quickly take over ukraine and i liked what i heard they were talking about bakhmut and were very excited and worried that according to their information i understand from the information of russian intelligence in the direction of bakhmut the ukrainian armed forces, well at least that was how it was announced, we can say the ukrainian armed forces have accumulated up to 20 newly formed brigades, attention, well, this is a huge number of personnel and equipment among these brigades, according to the russians, there are two tank

brigades and two artillery brigades a total of up to 40 or even up to 50,000 people there, and according to the information of these russian military experts, the armed forces of ukraine are preparing a plan to encircle the russian group that is trying to surround bakhmut, that is, the russians are bypassing bakhmut. this is how the zsu is preparing an operation to encircle and destroy all russians with an even bigger ring what do you know or is such a story and such an explanation possible as to why the ukrainian armed forces are not retreating from the battle now? such information, please tell us , i am asking a lot of very difficult questions. and if i think that if you want to receive actionable information, then probably we should talk about this topic at least as always, ah, actually , about these yangs, yes, we really

do this. in fact this is our specialty now, every day, every day, we have every evening . - and the actions that will be applied to the russians to destroy them, how many of our forces are there, how many of our forces are there , and which flank, from which flank will we enter? well, you know, and i'm telling you, because i don't know. and if i knew, i still wouldn't

tell you. and then i realized that mr. mykola knows, someone knows, probably someone knows. well, it's actually good that someone knows, and all this is done and planning is done at different levels, both tactical and non-strategic, operational , and i think that the very result of what bakhmut is standing and that the defense is holding and that ah-ah the enemy's logistics are regularly destroyed, and our logistics despite uh , his uh, exceeding his resources, his resources are higher than ours, but still, he doesn't succeed, this is the result of the fact that someone thinks with his head , you know, not only fights with muscles, but i think with my head, but i listened to them, well, they almost panic, you understand. this is about this and they say what are we doing, where are we going, now they will surround us. and there are also new

brigades in the southern direction that are also preparing a special operation regarding this rupture of this not the so-called corridor to the crimea and me too i watched carefully. i liked it in principle. the main thing is that it should be so and in fact that their expectations come true. russians in both directions and in the east and in the south. how is our intelligence? mykola understands what the russians are doing there, because it is also important . well, i want you to to say that we are doing everything possible to meet their expectations, especially if their expectations do not coincide with our wishes. this is what is going on with them. well, what are they doing, continuing their efforts, banging their heads against the wall of

the bakhmut direction, uh, forehead trying to go and they try to use flank maneuvers, and what they have is demoralization, of course, because they don’t get the hell out of it, they have a very large number of infantry losses, they have losses in equipment, and there are losses from unmanned vehicles. well, i would say that in general that if you know what they say, the second army of the world has not been able to invade our country for a year now , then as a scout, i will say that they have big problems, it is difficult to say what it is related to the fact that they have such a very powerful government that they have such a very powerful military the leadership, do they have such a powerful army? i guess we will analyze it when we win. because what i want to say is that it is already obvious that russia has lost. we have not won yet, and my main task is at least to make it happen as soon as

possible. thank you very much for being able to join us. mykola vologu, the commander of the tera reconnaissance unit in the azov tactical group with the call sign abdula , joined us, well, such a difficult situation, but bakhmut is holding on. you know how many weeks have passed. how many have they already had? there are all the stories, they already took bakhmut everywhere in the plural, they said about it that they almost took him, a year has passed, if they put 800, that's 800 per kilometer, calculate that a person is even 1.50 m, if they have such an average height, i don't i know how alarming it is. well, i think it’s more, after all, it turns out that literally one step was taken and the pipes fell, that is , at every step, a huge number of them, and these british people who were preparing a report there, they published photos with this huge number of losses. there were simply terrifying, terrible photos we have testimony and photo evidence of this. ihor levchenko should be in touch now. the military observer is not yet in touch. the pentagon

predicted heavy fighting in ukraine in the spring and summer. the spokesman for the pantalon, ped ryder, said that heavy fighting awaits ukraine in the spring and summer. battles, however, the usa and partners are ready to continue providing the armed forces with ammunition and deliver them to the front line as soon as possible about this and we will start a conversation with our guest as soon as he appears on the call well , for now, let's add some more information but if you don't have it. let me talk about the black sea . typical enemy activity is observed there, the operational command of the south reports that the occupiers are on combat duty. the occupiers are receiving 20 ships, including four missile carriers and a lot of auxiliary fleet. and according to the actions of the enemy, atypical activity was recorded for the number of core groupings of 20 units

, four missile launchers, one submarine , a maximum of 28 missiles can be equipped by launch on ukrainian territory today in the black sea there is a significant number of auxiliary fleet they are trying to demonstrate their presence as much as possible where they can afford as much as the world community can afford well, i think that this is also connected with the situation with the american drone that the russians shot down just the day before in the water area 70 km from the coast of the ukrainian crimea. i specifically went to wikipedia today to find out what the depth of the sea is, so the maximum depth of the sea just south of the ukrainian crimea is 2 km 240 m maximum depth, the depth of the black sea, will they be able to get it? yesterday sergiy spoke live about the fact that the uav was taken from the sea or from the surface or the bottom of the sea, but the information is not accurate, because i read a lot of information yesterday that the americans will still try

to be the first on the spot to get it this own device so that it does not fall into the hands of the russians, nbc, by the way, the american channel has already told its sources that it was not such an accident, it was an accident, the result of the unprofessional actions of the pilot . and that they still tried to shoot down and to drown this signature of the american russian pilot or loss of control, so on, and then they went to the ram, that's all a classic scheme, so do you remember who they have as their chief, this pilot was who engaged in ramming during the years of the great patriotic war of the second world war, and the tires

were named ihor levchenko, a military observer we are in touch, congratulations, mr. igor. good morning, i wanted to continue the topic of bahmut with you, mr. igor, and about yesterday's hysteria or the day before yesterday's russian military experts, there is such a program of this norkin, well , norkin was like this when he was a conscious liberal journalist, now he is a military-propagandist the water program is still there with one of the young co-hosts, and yesterday they talked about the interesting information that , according to the version of russian intelligence, the armed forces of ukraine concentrated up to 20 new brigades in the area of ​​bakhmut, of which two are tank brigades and two artillery brigades and there are up to 50,000 personnel and the main goal now is the armed forces, well, this is open information, this is yesterday’s russian propaganda channel. it was reported that the entire group of russians was surrounded, that is, the russians are trying to surround our bakhmut from all sides, and these 40 and 20

brigades, i apologize, will surround all russians together with them later. what do you think? well, where did the russians get such information and can it be true, please? to be honest, it is difficult to say . i think that our military command will not reveal its plans in any case. where did the russian propagandists get such information from? well, we see that by the way the first er raised er if on this occasion er it was prigozhyn and connected it with the fact that he was thrown by the ministry of defense er and he was let go ahead and he is surrounded by ukrainian troops and so on, maybe his legs are growing from there. well, maybe the russians actually see something. but again, it is unlikely that they will

broadcast like this if they have such intelligence information at the level of their ministry of defense, there general staff , finally ukraine for now still remains in bakhmut and the ukrainian soldiers are holding their defense to the last as far as it is from a strategic point of view now it is appropriate and expedient what do you think about who has the initiative there an advantage in the direction of bakhmut how may events develop in the future please well here i can only rely on the statements of our of the military command, who said that the defense of bakhmut is of strategic importance for the stability of the entire

front. they are trying to advance somewhere, learn something, and so on. well, uh, the nature of the hostilities, as far as you can understand, again from the point of view of the reports, it is quite tense , intense, uh, if the aggravation there has not subsided already for several months, well , but we see that our military the command is determined to maintain the position, so it means that it is for this, for something , the secretary of defense or the minister of defense, as we call him for a better understanding, lloyd osen of the united states emphasized again that ukraine does not have time to waste and uh keeping in mind that kyiv should prepare for this offensive offensive operation in the spring. it seems that the americans are pushing kyiv, i don't know how, our command

to this offensive. well, we see that in the american political community and among the american generals, there are often resignations of generals these are the opinions on this matter, but we know again that our military command and general staff are in constant contact with the american military and with the nato military and again there are information about the fact that in europe there were meetings and even such pants games regarding the modeling of possible options for the construction of our next determination of the necessary resources and, accordingly, the determination of the probable

dates for the beginning of this offensive. i think that there if everything has already been more or less determined and agreed on including with our igor regarding the provision of weapons i already spoke about france france was accused by the media of delaying the provision of ammunition to ukraine ukraine allegedly demands that ammunition be produced in the middle of the bloc, reuters writes about this with reference to the details of the graph, that is, the british write france was accused of slowing down the implementation of the eu package of 2 billion euros for the purchase of weapons for ukraine, and paris wanted a guarantee that the agreement on the joint purchase of weapons will benefit only companies based in the eu , the telegraph reported with reference to its european sources, well, let me remind you that political publications previously received documents outlining a plan for two billion euros both for replenishing reserves in ukraine and for replenishing their own reserves

in europe, or whether there are really any artificial delays regarding the provision of weapons and ammunition for the ukrainian armed forces from the side of our european partners, in particular france . i think that these are still more work moments. well, of course, they are simply connected with lobbying and the protection of the interests of our own manufacturers, this is again not a secret what is the military-industrial complex of european countries. he is quite optimistic about the political decisions regarding the provision of military support to ukraine regarding the identification of the production of military equipment, especially ammunition well, of course, it lobbies its own interests in a certain way, and france, as a rule, also tries to
