[000:00:00;00] is the conditions that are formed on certain bridgeheads by a factor that can correspond to contour offensive actions, so we can say that this process is taking place and if we talk about the time frame, then it is within the limits of spring, when exactly april may. and the questions of more such highly specialized, well, by the way high-ranking officials of the united states and the mark of militia and loydost what exactly should kyiv decide how exactly to carry out this counteroffensive against the russian federation are ready to support a-a with equipment and the necessary means er-e any decision of kyiv, let’s give it the last i have a question about this a rather scandalous interview with the washington post, more precisely, the material of the washington post, to which we gave a comment, here is this combat and in general, if we are not talking about the counteroffensive, but about the situation at the front, he mentions that there were unprepared soldiers, they did not have enough training, and accordingly, they are there, the quote is

one of i was afraid of them, even the sound of a shot, it is important to talk about it if it is true, so let's stop here . means afraid the sounds are exactly the sounds of gunshots, and a person who has been in a combat zone for about three months gets used to the conditions in which he is. there are even situations when a person loses the sense of danger in general, and this is a fact. this is already a psychological factor. a person hears explosions of 152 caliber, for example, a large caliber. or mortar fire, the person does not even somehow try to go to the shelter, he just sits there, smokes

, for example, and does not react. while another fighter, who almost just found himself in the combat zone along the contact line, he does what he is trying to somehow hide, hide and save his life during this shelling, that is, he has completely different instincts at work well, this guy already has quite a lot of experience in combat operations, and he looks at him like, well , why are you here on earth like this, so it’s already different levels, this does not mean that a person who tries to save his life is not prepared or afraid. yes, he is afraid of his life. don't be afraid to die. it's already a problem to be afraid to die. it's all natural, and saving lives is very important. and this

the question can be considered for a long time both from all psychological factors and directly from the factors of preparation, but in our country there is no such process that a person is taken from civilian life, torn out of civilian life , for example, mobilization, does this person go as a volunteer or for territorial defense, and so on, there can be different cases of how a person gets into a combat zone, but this does not mean that he went through two weeks of some kind of training on a training ground and was immediately sent to a combat zone, no a of such a level of training does not happen. so, if a person is accepted on the line of fear of a collision, he is a slag. the basic training for conducting hostilities is clear. let's talk now about the army's ability to attack. the study of the war in recent days has recorded a noticeable decrease in the number of attacks in

bahmut, allegedly, the offensive forces of the russian federation have lost their offensive potential due to night losses and lives and manpower and techniques if so what do you think should be expected in this direction in bahmut it is not entirely related to the fact that they have lost some resource there yes indeed they are losing a large amount of forces and resources every day but they have enough in this area i would say yes, about 30 battalions of tactical groups are concentrated there, 16 btg of which are in the front line, the others are in reserve. so they have enough resources to conduct e-e assault but there is an important but they have been acting illogically lately and they are concentrating nationally for example, instead of concentrating on storm and one of the directions of the city of bakhmut, they sent a part of this resource in

the northern direction. that is, it is to siversk, it is near tsiversk, and they are now concentrating on the northwest direction along the route m- 03 and why are they trying to capture the commanding heights near the settlement of mankivka, and these commanding heights are now controlled by the armed forces of ukraine, but this is resource management. therefore , the reduction of all assault attacks near bahmutu, and accordingly, the projectile famine, which is getting worse, still has its influence. and the russian occupation troops have it, and that’s why it has decreased, although, again, they are trying to continue to press from the north and from the south of their city, you used to, uh, i see it on your twitter analyzed the prospects of offensive operations in 2023, did you compare a-a these possible operations a-a in terms

of time at least with the planning of counter-offensives in kharkiv oblast and kherson oblast successful contrasts of the operation of the armed forces in 2022 in your opinion russian troops have studied certain lessons from these operations of the armed forces of ukraine and should we expect that the military of the russian federation will defend the occupied territories in the same way, and they have experience from these events, but they do not know how to implement it and how to apply it most effectively, because we see that in general in 2022 well, somehow they did not radically change their tactics, and near the coal mine we saw how they make the same er mistakes during intervening actions. of general opportunities are not so much for him to advance, at least to introduce defensive actions, but the greatest potential in them is definitely now

concentrated in the donetsk region . it is in the direction of bakhmut, the second potential , yes, in terms of opportunities, this is exactly luhansk along the lines of criminality, but troitska is the r66 line, i still call it and there, the concentration of forces and resources is enough to carry out offensive actions on a large scale, at least at first glance. well, for this as well, but at least for defensive actions. therefore, it is more profitable there it was for the armed forces of ukraine to force them to go on the offensive in the offensive to reduce their resources and then start a counteroffensive against the russian occupiers based on the reduced resource. the worst situation for them is in the south. to conduct some large-scale offensive actions and he has rather dubious possibilities regarding the introduction of security in which a--and

therefore will not be ruled out now . in the southern direction, well, this was discussed in particular, and in the publication, politics was also discussed, and mr. bit's representative of the gur also recently spoke about the fact that one of the scenarios is to really kill such a wedge in the south and deprive russia of the land corridor to crimea , but if you compare the territories occupied by the russian army to the newly occupied, in particular, the kherson region of the e-th part of the zaporizhzhia region. but we remember the de-occupation of the e-e kharkiv region and compare these territories with those territories that have been occupied for almost the 9th year, in particular

donetsk luhansk and these are cities that have less resistance from the civilian population and are probably better built . some of the defense logistics of the russian army are different . what are the differences here ? the territories occupied since the 14th year are more fundamental, it is possible that this will be the case with us exactly when we liberate these territories, then we will first of all have a problem precisely with destroying all these lines of defense. develop e-e exactly those fortifications, if we are talking about the territory of the 22nd year that they occupied, then they very quickly formed these lines of defense there, and there is a very important nuance: not each of the bridgeheads can hold these lines of defense at all with the resources that are currently placed there the logistics there really do not work fully there, the system of providing

advanced units is not working well, and the management was transferred to the units. also, it is the zaporizhia region on the left bank of kherson region , they are building these lines of defense, they are making trenches, falsifying structures of some kind , but another question. by a snake, that is, the systematic permanent destruction of objects of the russian military infrastructure on the crimean peninsula, all these qualification structures and trenches, they will not have any effect. and when all the resources and russian of the occupation forces, who will hold the defenses along these lines at all? thus, in 2014, donetsk and luhansk

regions were occupied, and their liberation will be more difficult than, for example, the liberation of even the temporarily occupied crimean peninsula. thank you very much for your analysis. we were in touch oleksandr kovalenko, military-political observer of the information resistance group, the second most difficult direction after bakhmut is the criminal defense in luhansk in the luhansk region, the commander of the unit there says that the russian troops have changed the direction of their the attacks are now trying to advance along the road to liman, the city west of the flint, thus forming a pincer, that is, trying to surround ukrainian units , the fighters themselves tell about the situation there. well, from the enemy's side , this is the second main direction, which may be interesting for him, because if he goes to the lemon, he will in general, it should turn out

that kramatorsk in slavyansk will be under threat from the encirclement, that is, they are trying to take the pincers of the grouping of our troops from two sides. therefore, it is no less important to direct 24/7 i monitor the situation, assess the situation, make decisions, impress the enemy with my means, the fire means of the senior commander, or carry out my units to strengthen or contour offensive actions, there are no direct frontal attacks , because there are forests here. yes, we work in the same way here. well, as the artillery is closed, in fact, it is a polish tank. because here everything

is written in polish in polish everywhere, that is, it is also from the very beginning when he arrived in our part. our brigade was created and we are, that is, from that moment, that is, from them, well, this tanchik travels constantly, although the kharkiv region was now transferred to the donetsk region, well, the region is mainly we are engaged in the collection of information, which adjustments of fish are also hostile. they work as directed fish, they also have and drone-guns like ours and the same thing, they have domed ribs that simply do not allow them to fly into a certain sector, they also try to adapt over time to adjust to reality, that is, it is clear that this is always

a big problem for us, because we have to think about several steps forward, how to make a successful operation and at the same time not let the enemy understand how we do it. by the way, we were covered at the evacuation point, they discovered us for about two hours, probably in the luhansk region itself, where only two settlements remained unoccupied , the russian army is leaving behind scorched earth serhii gaidai, former head of the luhansk oda, who was dismissed from his post the day before, in an interview with radio liberty, spoke about the extent of the destruction in the region due to the destroyed cities. well, really, in their new

administrative map, even popasna does not exist. i can tell you that novoselivka does not have a single log house in the village, makiivka does not have a single house of its own, belohorivka does not exist , etc., it is completely destroyed, novatoshkivka is completely destroyed, kuzemivka is completely destroyed, and this is only what we know to date , severodonetsk, 90% of the buildings are damaged by shelling, 70% of them are not subject to restoration. the border half of the city is not there. lysychansk is shelled just as thoroughly in our country. will still restore everything without exception well, now about the international news , but still related to the war in ukraine, the polish authorities reported on the exposure of the russian spy network on its territory

, nine people who come from outside the eastern borders of poland were detained on suspicion of espionage according to the polish authorities, the minister of internal affairs of poland, mariusz kaminski, said that the detainees were planning acts of sabotage. were suspected of espionage in favor of moscow, they allegedly monitored with the help of video cameras and navigation tracking devices the movement of railway cargo in the south-east of poland, this region is adjacent to the border with ukraine precisely because of the difference, through the territory of poland western weapons are supplied to the country , according to the polish government, the detainees were also allegedly collecting data about the resort in ryashev , where western aid is delivered to ukraine and where foreign leaders also fly before traveling by train, then to

ukraine for visits. this is how the incident happened the minister of defense of poland, mariusz blaszczak, commented to the polish media that russia has always been a threat to poland, regardless of whether it was white or red or putin's now i want to emphasize the great success of the officers of the internal security agency, the entire spy network was exposed, this proves that the polish services work for the security of our country very effectively in russia, the situation with the exposure of a spy network that probably worked in the interests of the russian federation has not yet commented on what exactly the alleged spies in poland were trying to achieve, how many of them can still be in poland about this is what we are talking about later with us analysts on military and international issues chief editor of the ukrainian-polish portal dariusz maternik good evening good evening what is known now about the task that could be received from moscow allegedly by people who are now detained on

suspicion of espionage well, first of all, what is needed is that they were supposed to watch how the trains were playing, how military cargo was moving from poland in the direction of ukraine , that is, in the south-eastern part of poland, where the rzeszow yashanka airport is located nearby , as it is the most important for- now it is possible to say to the most important hubs in all of europe, through which military aid to ukraine passes, what is really interesting , we know that these people allegedly watched the very body of technical goods and cargo, on the one hand, it was problematic, but in we really need to take into account the fact that the vast majority of military cargo

, so we want auto weapons, ammunition and other things, everything else that is necessary for most of these cargoes is somehow not delivered to vocally by rail transport and the border is also very, very strong. there is also very strong surveillance by the polish and ukrainian border services here. then what were these people trying to achieve? how secure is this arms transit really, and

probably russia will not attack echelons on the territory of poland, because poland is a member of a nato member country, but they could probably collect some information . yes , it is possible that this information is what you are interested in first of all . it will be taken into account that this is not the only such group er action in poland as it should be taken into account that their people are so er two-strong for the first time there should be much more er i would still need to recruit them to the attention that the special services also has one piece of information also about other people who are engaged in such

activities eh this letter also reminds us that there have already been such cases they did not give a depressing terrorist act as well as the russian federation on the tv channel in the czech republic, if i am not mistaken. it was 2,000, maybe 16 people, or we will have this color. it was there in the enterprise, as it processed the ammunition itself, that is, it is necessary to take into account the test that there have already been cases, to approach this seriously, that is, what is it, but the threat of a thunderstorm such methodological actions as can be carried out by the educational federation. also on the territory of poland or other countries, as well as helping ukraine. well , is that correct? i understand that this is not the last group, and that we will probably learn about some

new detentions that are probably spying agent is still working on the territory of poland as far as well as far as it is possible to say with certainty that the detention of this group will somehow stop this espionage or not stop it at all it is very logical that yes and the club more it would be very strange if they only one such group was sent here. it is very graphic that there are more of them . and that there is an opportunity. development ie in my opinion all the words they directly tell that there is polish special services also have information about uh activities of this type yes yes yes and in

my opinion we should expect the following for the detention of people who are engaged in such otaku activities on the territory of poland, the polish authorities also say that among those who were detained, these are people who are not from poland, but they supposedly come from countries outside the eastern borders of poland, what is known about this, who are they, are they belarusians, russians, maybe someone else, is it possible that there is someone from ukraine through them to of today until this moment i have heard yes, one thing could be officially read today in polish eh now it goes to that for itself ah mass information that these eh people as well as football will be the first i sing that these are belarusians i don’t know if all

but but the citizens of other countries. i mean, whether in ukraine or russia, there are quite a few until this moment . that it is much easier for a citizen of bilous to go to poland and say that to the basement they are refugees, unfortunately we have problems with communication , and we were contacted by dariosh maternik, an analyst on military and international issues, the editor-in-chief of the ukrainian-polish portal, with him we talked about the fact that spies were allegedly detained in poland under the e-e, they worked for the benefit of the russian federation, installed video cameras to collect information about the movement of western weapons into ukraine, and exactly one year ago

, on march 16, russian troops bombed the drama theater in mariupol, then, according to different accounts, they died in this theater from 300 to 600 civilians. this story, which we will tell now, is about those who survived this airlift. "i came to the mariupol drama theater from where, according to them, the evacuation of the civilian population was to be organized. the family stayed there until march 16, when a bomb fell on the building . natalie's husband died on march 23. she and her son yevhen were able to leave the city on foot.

was in the blockade, we were watching, we were sitting, zhenya, this loggia was the first floor of the loggia, it was right next to the stage, it is lowered . especially so that the minimum damage from the explosions there, for example, if the ceiling falls on us, then there. behind the scenes, it will be preserved more or less and that is what happened that the bomb just fell behind the scenes and we were in that nine-ton wall, it just saved us from the main impact . that is, it took the entire impact. there was nowhere to go out in an explosive wave, she wave-likely, you know, so, so, well, she walked around the room here and there, and as a result , it turned out like a storm made of building materials , so when we were no longer sitting, well, this turns out to be logical. these chairs and when there was an explosion and the blast wave tilted this chair to the floor well, maybe because we were sitting and where it didn't hit and so it happened what

well, it all collapsed, we don't understand anything i think i covered my head like that well, how well, a reflex i was working, and i covered my head, i think well, that’s all i think well, this is the end. i think it’s not the end. i turn around somehow, fearing myself and quickly to the fire, that is, the window to breathe air, and i realize that i don’t hear anything. here i am, concussed , i don’t understand anything, i see that only people are panicking and i can't see the mother and the edge of the fly , even though she is deaf, but with one ear i can more or less hear that the mother is suffocating. you'll see there and i'm already so casual so bam bam i already saw something. well, lighten up, i started grabbing my hood and went outside in a shock system. you can’t understand what’s wrong with you

. well, i felt myself. well, my head was wounded , my hand was covered in blood. i didn’t hear him shouting, or yes, i’m talking to him, and because of the fact that i’m going to burn my whole throat in what we left there, i ’ll show you when we were already in zaporozhye , eh, in this, how is he, eh, in kindergarten when they brought us, well, as a memory, we took a general photo. there, of course. we are very tortured here there is here a photo of the car, he went out after the explosion. when we left the drama theater, we ran out. there was no mirror, but my husband was all in the same plaster, and then we were the first to do it. dad, where is misha? we are in the same place. окутционные этот ход, and he was simply overwhelmed, he was completely overwhelmed, the only thing was that

a woman from below from the basement shouted help. well, you couldn't even go to her , mmm, you couldn't even go down to her. raked, i went down and you and we pulled her up there with one man and them here someone there took over and they went somewhere, well, that is, there were already people who were sitting there, of course, in a panic, they all jumped out and ran away, the elephants, the heads, the ones , the ones, the ones in the bomb shelter are sitting, uh, too, with suitcases, with everyone, they ran somewhere and where they ran. i don't know where they are looking. few of the people are still a little girl there. she was still not far from us and it was four years old and this happened. she was lucky that nothing fell on her. and the parents, the grandmother, and everyone else went to the kitchen and cooked food. put a daughter with acquaintances and it turns out that they are left there - well, they died there, i was taken away, we began

to look for my father here and there, and one grandfather said to me that he is there, look if there are any arms and legs sticking out. so i went there, and my mother at this time i was in another place and was shouting, i was walking a man's name, a man. here i began to rake my legs, rake, well, i see that it's not my father 's, well, let's say so , i approach his hands. unfortunately, it was his, and already his hands began to dig up his face , and well, i see that my father is very it so happened that zhenya says mom, there's dad, i don't even know how there was hope that there was still a way to go. well, when we got closer, we got closer. we just got closer to the face of the plaster. we tried to dig it out somehow , but the plaster and all that started to fall from above, and we already thought that, well, we just
