, you are such a blockbuster. ah, beauty. in addition , russian villages are actively changing the fields, says the painter . this is the video posted on social networks by the ukrainian military, and with the help of the american demining system, they clear the area of ​​advance in the zone of operational responsibility of the khortytsi operational-strategic group amounted to more than three kilometers. as for the southern direction, and what do you know there, the offensive continues in several directions , and the advance of the armed forces is also gradually but surely taking place. at the same time, the enemy is putting up strong resistance. there, we are faced with the use of kamikaze drones, and with

intense shelling and the enemy just like that , of course, he does not give up his positions in general . during the last week, the armed forces liberated seven settlements in the zaporizhzhia direction, and advanced there from three to six and a half kilometers, reported the deputy oleksiy gromov, chief of the operational department of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. and in the berdyansk direction, over the past week, the ukrainian military has liberated six settlements. and in the village of melitopol , the pubic advance has reached three kilometers, and now we are in touch with andriy kovalev, press officer 112- th brigade three of the armed forces e i welcome you mr. andriy on our broadcast thank you for joining glory to ukraine glory to the heroes tell me what updates you have for the last day in which directions the advancement of the armed forces is and where now the main battles are actually being fought, the defense forces of ukraine continue to carry out both defensive and offensive actions, even though i will tell you

the powerful aviation and artillery superiority of the russian invaders, but despite everything, our boys and girls have partial success and where our soldiers are in units of the armed forces of ukraine of the past era have not lost a single position in the defense and are now conducting more offensive actions in the area of ​​novodanilivka, robotnoy and levadny staromajorsk, and are having success there, as well as in the area of ​​the city of vugledar, ukrainian soldiers have success in certain areas of the front during the assault operations did the e-e get a foothold on the achieved boundaries near ugledar ? the units of the armed forces of ukraine are conducting successful offensive operations in the area of ​​a populated place to the east of the dead end in donetsk region. they pushed the russian occupiers out of the occupied positions. of strikes during the past day, the enemy carried out five missile strikes

using x101 h-55 and x-59 cruise missiles , in addition, it carried out more than 60 air strikes and carried out more than 80 rocket attacks systems of volley fire in the past, our soldiers eliminated 590 russian occupiers, 10 tanks in 16 armored combat vehicles for master artillery systems and two enemy arsenes, and here it is also necessary to say that it is obvious that the russian occupiers continue to suffer small losses from our offensive actions and all medical institutions on the temporarily occupied territories of ukraine are now crowded with wounded russian occupiers , as a result of which the enemy has begun to equip civilian medical facilities on the territory of the russian federation and a separate belgorod

oblasts are already law-abiding civilian medical facilities in e.e. military hospitals, for example e.e. in the settlement of chernomeshka, this is the belgorod oblast, e.e. a hospital that the russian authorities at one time created as a specialized hospital, an antiviral hospital for the treatment of 19 has already been turned into an e.e. military hospital and already there in draft they brought more than 400 wounded occupiers just from the zone where the active offensive actions of the armed forces of ukraine are being carried out, also the russian occupiers feel the potential of the armed forces of ukraine, so for example now are actively transferring some units from different directions to strengthen their defense, for example, from the south to the east , yesterday they relocated one of the second assault divisions of the russian occupiers to

strengthen their e-e forces in the area in the east of ukraine, and this is the movement of russian forces that you are talking about you say, it is connected with the fact that a thus, the russian side , so to speak, determines the priority directions for itself or simply closes the holes in its defense, perhaps it is more connected with the fact that they close the holes in the defense and feel where in them, er, the forces er, and here it will be required to redeploy these units to strengthen the defense . is connected with the successful offensive actions of the defense forces of ukraine exclusively with this and that is why the russian occupiers are actively trying to include, say, those forces and means

where they have an advantage, the ukrainian military in the berdyansk and mariupol directions ah, are the main counteroffensive battles going on there now, or can you say that well, in principle, i have just named the so-called white settlements in which the main offensive actions are ongoing - this is exactly what is going on in the berdyansk and mariupol directions, and active offensive actions are also taking place in to the bakhmut direction and just now literally today we received information about such a successful attack and repulse of the enemy in the area of ​​ughledar uh that is why the offensive actions continue , well, the most important thing that i can say at the

moment is that they continue uh, the brutal actions continue extremely difficult battles eh, you know here, in fact, eh, the words of the commander of the armed forces of ukraine, valery zaluzhny, that if it were not difficult for us, she definitely will not be ashamed of the first one, we do eh, and probably this is the only way to describe what our boys and the girls are now actively on the offensive, they are fighting very difficult , tiring battles, but this is a function, it is actually the main task of the armed forces of ukraine to liberate the ukrainian territory , we have no other choice, and we are fulfilling our mission, i am convinced that we will do it mr. andriy zaporizhzhia liberated 7 villages in the direction of berdyan, ukrainian soldiers liberated six settlements. can

you tell us what the situation is in these liberated settlements ? villages that were in a forced, let's say forced evacuation e left these villages do not immediately return to these forces because even the liberated ukrainian villages and cities are full of danger e for example, the russian occupiers leave mined objects, houses, er, there may be mines or, say, rockets that did not explode, so after the liberation of the villages, we go through er, a-a, in fact, it is a difficult process , first, to search for er, explosive objects, and secondly , er there are also units that are engaged in the search for er those er soldiers or terrorists of the russian er armed forces who could, for example

, blow themselves up from their units or hide somewhere in a house or basement. therefore, er, we need to wait time when official bodies authorities when the military-civilian administrations of the oblasts already directly grant permission for e-e travel and the fact that residents can return to these villages in general e-e nothing new, let’s say, in these newly liberated villages there is nothing that, let’s say, our soldiers did not see in in the liberated villages of kharkiv oblast, kherson oblast or donetsk oblast, the russian occupiers are leaving behind uh, well, a huge tragedy, they are leaving behind a very difficult uh , socially situation, the situation with supply, very often in these villages there is absolutely no

electricity supply, so all this has to be done to restore, but i am convinced that everything will work. well, you know, we have to compare, let's say, in the winter after the liberation, to be more precise, concrete ones for peace after the liberation of the estuary, as was the case, for example, in lyman, donetsk region, that is, in lyman there was a huge number of ukrainian population and, after the battles for liman, russian the occupiers destroyed the electricity supply, they deliberately destroyed the gas supply, and in lyman it is not only private houses, it is also apartment buildings, they destroyed the water supply, people were left without any communal services, so to speak to make a living without heat, without water, and for these people, let's say it was a difficult cold winter, and in spite of everything, these people refused to evacuate, to leave the estuary, because they said that they did not believe in

principle that they could i wanted to go somewhere. they wanted to leave their cities very often. they must understand that people really want to return home. we observe it . it remains mostly people of this age who simply do not believe that they can go somewhere, so it is clear that we are seeing a catastrophe, first of all a humanitarian catastrophe. thank you for the inclusion for the relevant information for this morning. andrii kovalev, the press officer of the 112th brigade, joined our broadcast from the court. thank you, the journalists of the francepress agency showed how ukrainian servicemen from a german howitzer , a panzer howitzer, in donetsk region are shelling russian positions around bakhmut, as he said earlier the head of the communist party wagner prigozhin, the city was controlled by russian forces. however , in the last few days, the ukrainian ministry of defense reports that there is

an advance of ukrainian troops, panzer howitzers, in the direction of bakhmut 2000 is a german self-propelled artillery installation with a high level of automation of all armor systems. it is difficult to protect it from small arms shooters and fragments of artillery shells, and further firing with standard ammunition can reach 30 km, but the ukrainian military says that such machines, although they have positive characteristics, are not completely adapted for driving the russian-ukrainian war flies over 67 km on the asphalt, that is, we once flew one and a half km and shot back, but on the swamp it is very very bad and the box the automatic machine constantly lowers the revs, the weight, the shot, their soil is not like that, the mud is not like that, here we have such and such, there is no si anywhere, because

there is black soil, good winter, no one, of course, for this, for their condition, this is all they invented a shot, we will drive out the occupants and we will go home, what else to do yes, we started, well, we finished. yes, we did not expect them here . for the first time, polish border guards were shot from the side of belarus. this is reported by the polish media with reference to the border service of poland. the border guards were hit with great force by an unknown object, whether it was an air weapon or something else, it is not clear , polish media quote the spokesman of the border guard service, arkady shatovanyuk, but this object went through the side window of the car, flew out from the other side and broke another window, i note that polish border guards almost every day

they report attacks with stones and burning branches on the border from the side of belarus , despite the fact that along the border line with belarus a year ago, poland built a wall, the russian army moved to bryansk, bordering ukraine region missile complexes, because of this, the threat of shelling of the northern regions of ukraine with mbh-35 and kha-35um missiles is increasing . this is reported by the general staff of ukraine, these missiles can hit targets at a distance of up to 500 km under the potential impact of the territory of zhytomyr, kyiv, poltava, cherkasy , chernihiv, sumy and kharkiv regions that's what they say in the general staff , i would like to point out that according to the summary and the general staff of ukraine, russian forces shell almost every day from aviation, as well as from mortars and artillery in the northern region of ukraine we spoke by phone, the spokesman of the united press center of the defense of the northern direction, yuriy

povh p. yuriy, i welcome you to our broadcast, but the general staff informed about the transfer of bal complexes to the border in bryansk region and, as a result, the threat of the use of x-35-35um missiles exists in the northern direction. can you tell us about it in more detail? what are the specifics of the use of these missiles and why are we talking about the threat in the north? well, regarding the threat in the north. it really exists if it is confirmed that these complexes will be placed where the russians promised. i would like to point out that these complexes are really anti-ship ground target work is not their main task, but let's not forget the case of the s-300 sweat complex ground target work , which was in principle optional, now we

see that it has been quite a long time time, the enemy uses these missiles precisely to launch strikes on ground targets, therefore, to ignore the information that the enemy has somehow strengthened its capabilities in a certain direction would not be quite wrong, and uh, this danger must be taken into account by yuriy and why that is, anti-ship cruise missiles, they are modified. it seems so. but why are they potentially going to be used for all these areas if they are anti -ship missiles ? it acts non-standardly and fills the cavity in

certain means of defeat with such and such arzats options and that does not negate the danger of this weapon of this armament, or could it be due to the task of striking precisely with these missiles? well, more the zone of destruction, for example, what is the difference? i want to remind you that the enemy is constantly shelling the entire territory of ukraine . already noted, it turned out that this is just a patchwork of holes in the combat capabilities of the aggressor's troops, but also the polish border guards announced

on june 15 that a few days ago they were fired on from the side for the first time belarus and what is the current situation on our border between ukraine and belarus, are there certain provocations from the belarusian side. if there are, what do they look like in the last product , no such cases were recorded in the volyn and polis areas of the operation, the situation has not undergone significant changes, eh, constantly there are shellings and raids by aviation in the siversk and slobojan directions, it is working in them, it is carrying out airstrikes and mortar and artillery strikes. and how do you generally assess the situation in the northern direction ukraine, has the combat situation changed in recent weeks in this direction? and so we will try to redial now, because they are in contact, meanwhile, i will remind you, our dear viewers, and you can write your comments and questions to those speakers who are on our air.

just for the broadcast on the radio freedom channel, ask your questions in the chat . what are you interested in knowing ? we really talk a lot, and it's objectively clear. why , about the situation at the front, and you can also write from which regions of ukraine and which regions are you from? bridge from where you see us, it is possible that you are not all at home now, and you can also note this and report this information. i will remind you that we are speaking with the spokesman of the joint press center of the defense forces of the northern direction from the north . there is some news from the northern direction, one of of news is that the russian army has transferred bal missile complexes to the bryansk region bordering ukraine, and because of this , the threat of shelling, in particular, of the cock of ukraine with kha-35 and khat 35u missiles is increasing - this is against ship missiles and that is its own peculiarity

but it becomes dangerous, so to speak, with this even more, they are warning about it, especially in the villages of the defense, and now yuriy is coming back to us, yuriy, you are already from the video, i am glad to see you, not just hear, so tell me please, in general, what is the current situation in the northern direction of ukraine, is it possible that the combat situation has changed there in recent weeks in this direction, maybe somehow it is connected to this, and the story with the fact that the ball e-e missile complexes are being transferred by russia closer to midnight, i wanted to note that on volynskyi and polis directions, the operational situation has not undergone any significant changes, but in the siver and slobojan directions, the enemy continues to carry out aerial artillery and mortar strikes, etc. unfortunately , the reality of our present, in this day

and age, has been made again the enemy's artillery and mortar raids on the settlements of sumy region and chernihiv region, the enemy does not achieve its goal with such a chaotic shelling of the border area, but damages civilian objects and causes disturbances in the civilian population, according to oleksandr lukashenko he says that tactical nuclear weapons will already be placed in belarus. is there anything known about this, is there any movement of similar equipment being observed, is there information in ukrainian units, is it possible that these weapons from putin are already on the territory of belarus, it is within the competence of our e -e intelligence agencies definitely regarding the observation

of the situation in the area of ​​responsibility of the defense forces of the north wanted to inform that in the last day no significant movements of large volumes of equipment and of the enemy's personnel , our troops continue engineering arrangements, e.e. defense lines are being updated or new engineering barriers and mini fields are being created, the spokesman of the force defense unit of the northern direction was a guest of our broadcast. was the first meeting of the defense ministers of 50 countries on ukraine's partners since the beginning of the counteroffensive actions of the armed forces of ukraine , kyiv's partners reported on the future

training plans of the ukrainian military and stated that will make efforts to support and maintain the military equipment that has already been provided to ukraine, in addition, the partners promise new launchers and missiles for them , the main conclusions of the meeting will now be told by the european correspondent of radio svoboda zoryana stepanenko. military leadership of half a hundred participating countries rammstein is an opportunity to hear personally from a colleague from kyiv what is happening on the battlefield and how to support the long-awaited for many operation, if we want a fair and durable peace, then we need to provide military support to ukraine, the more successful the ukrainian counteroffensive is, the more likely it is that president putin will at some stage understand that he cannot win this war on the battlefield in an unchanged fop so that ukraine is less

vulnerable to russian missiles drones , the partners agree to strengthen air defense, there will be new launchers and hundreds of short- and medium-range missiles for them, the united states , great britain, the netherlands, denmark are already on their way to ukraine will make its contribution and canada, norway and denmark will help with munitions for the same, the european ally works centrally . putin continues to terrorize, attack and destroy civilian infrastructure and kill civilians, so we must increase our support and provide more advanced weapons to resist these attacks . defenses would be supplemented by modern fighters and there is progress in this direction. europe is preparing to receive ukrainian pilots and is currently drawing up a program

according to which the air coalition will introduce them and on the 16th, a program is being developed according to which ukrainian pilots will master the f16 . progress is being written, the head of the pentagon said, and when exactly the pilots will begin to get acquainted with western fighter jets. the process is led by the netherlands and denmark , the latter offered courses on its territory, according to the head of the danish ministry of defense , pilot training will take at least six months actually, we have no reason not to start there by the end of july , at least first in the first group. i sent pilots, selected technicians, mechanics, selected air commanding forces . for additional leopards for ukraine and 14 more, as reported by the german media, this batch will arrive next year, lost equipment in the counteroffensive and what

began in ukraine, the head of the pentagon admitted, is but he hardly added such as demonstrated by the russian side, i think the russians showed us the same five vehicles 1,000 times from 10 different angles, but frankly , the ukrainians still have a lot of combat power, this is a war, we know that there will be damage on the battlefield on both sides, how many wiels will it take, the war is dynamic is a contest of wills full of uncertainty and a high price, but i can say that every day the ukrainians demonstrate the courage and tenacity necessary to return their territory in a planned manner, ukrainian forces are fighting hard ahead, rammstein members emphasize format, so they say
