[000:00:00;00] diet hardly added such as demonstrated by the russian side, er, i think the russians showed us the same five vehicles a thousand 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 from both sides to the ukrainian side and added that it is possible to take and the sincerity of the allies to provide support and in the future as long as needed wiels war is dynamic it is a contest of wills full of uncertainty and a high price but i can say that every day ukrainians demonstrate the courage and tenacity necessary to return their territory in a planned manner, ukrainian forces have decisive battles ahead, rammstein ferma participants emphasize here , so for assessments or forecasts

, they say it is too early to assess ukraine's urgent needs at the front and, as far as possible , satisfy them from brussels zoryan stepanenko maryk hayduk radio svoboda spokesman of the air force of the armed forces of ukraine yuriy ignat refuted the statement of the secretary general of nato and yensi stouping, gabbro territory, the beginning of training of ukrainian pilots for fighter jets f16 that the training of ukrainian pilots on fighter jets has begun, the secretary general of nato said the day before during the meeting of the nato defense ministers in brussels before the meeting in the rammstein format. however , ignat says he is correct. she translated stoltenberg's words somewhat incorrectly, because the process of training pilots is not simple, according to him, it stretches for thousands today , ukrainian military personnel are studying in europe on various courses, including aviation specialists, they are those who ensure

the process of piloting at various stages and directions, in particular, the officers of combat control and search and rescue support regarding the pilots themselves well, unfortunately, we all want them to get together and leave as soon as possible. i will return, but for now , they say that they are ready. they are just very much into it . they probably want and constantly update this information. i have already left and they will come soon. well, we will wait for you to file. they left earlier. the routers agency reported that denmark has decided on the date for the start of training of ukrainian pilots on the f-16. it is likely about august of this year, according to a report by the same reuters regarding the ukrainian counterattack, ukraine has so far engaged only three of the 12 brigades . the decisive battle is still ahead, so writes the reuters agency. military expert oleksia hetman joins our broadcast. i congratulate you

, oleksia. about the result of the meeting in the rammstein format about the fact that they promised more air defense and there of course they were waiting for certain information about what stage the ukrainian counteroffensive is at and there in the west, they look at the successes of ukraine, or what does the supply of western weapons to ukraine depend on, and that with the f-16 issue , it is already resolved , the planes will be provided, training is starting, well, the planes will be provided. rammstein is being resolved by a meeting of the putin coalition at the level of chiefs of staff and ministers of defense. well, more than 50 ukraine are being resolved there , mostly a technical issue. well, some nuances, a political issue, a strategic issue

is decided at the level of the head of ukraine and such a decision on the supply of aircraft to us. it has already been made. it has already been made . therefore, now it is a technical question. when to learn how to learn how quickly . it's better if something has already started, well, i think it's a little funny situations, but it's a technical issue. i think they'll start soon, so let's understand that learning on airplanes is not only about flying directly on the plane itself, the plane first of all needs documentation, well, when a person gets into the cockpit of the plane, there are certain devices there, a person must understand what, what, what the device means , he must study without sitting in the cockpit of the plane, and he also reads certain literature and raps working on simulators well, let's not somehow uh , well, don't fantasize about how training takes place. first, then there are certain certain uh tests on simulators, a person tries to use all this, what happens there

uh is located and only then and directly flying on an airplane, our pilots know how to fly, they include incorrect flights, we fly, i think that after there 200-300 combat sorties, the airplanes are not very comfortable, we can teach many of our partners how to fly, our task is not to learn the rules of flying and to learn the instrument panel is on this plane as a certain representative, that’s all, but regarding the information from the routers agency that ukraine has so far engaged only three of its 12 brigades in the counteroffensive. can you describe it, it was the beginning of such a counteroffensive that began there well, mostly in the zaporizhzhia direction, ah, in fact, we already know about the liberation of certain villages. the main battles are really still ahead, or how to explain these words from a military point of view , 25% of our forces

? someone is paying journalists something somewhere , i mean our foreign friends who are starting to say that if we are not as successful as everyone expects, then the supply of weapons to us may stop. or unconsciously they start to repeat to me the russian federation we will not conduct hostilities under some kind there will be something bad, we will take offensive actions so that it is as effective as possible, so that you inflict maximum damage on the enemy , advance as much as possible with minimal losses, act, we will be those units, those units are formed at the time when we when we says our general staff and i am sure that these actions were planned, what is this, it is starting to get a little annoying that someone is sitting somewhere 1000 km from the front line, or even

on the other side, and the oceans will start not telling the speed, we are attacking quickly, we are doing everything as it is necessary, as everything has been calculated so far, as they report to our military and political leadership. it follows the plan that was developed by our general staff for the price of foot surgery, and some people like it , they don’t like it, well, they don’t like it i would like it to be faster , he comes to ukraine, picks up a machine gun, and speeds up. well, what kind of conversation is this? it is really very important. there are three directions where the armed forces of ukraine are conducting counteroffensive actions . at the moment, it looks like the south for the south will be such a priority fight in the near future. and in the zaporizhzhia direction are the most active battles going on right now ? do we understand it correctly? at the moment, we can see on the map of the hostilities and then which forces are involved somewhere. well, and then the forecast, then the analytics,

which was even before the start of this full-scale well, i don’t remember, because our next one is full-scale, you can say that it is very important for us to go to the coast of the sea of ​​azov in order to cut off the groups in crimea and around it without supplying anything with, well , conditional leadership part of russia, so that only the crimea bridge or those ships that are in novorossiysk is in the cargo ships, well, paratrooper ships that the russians have already rebuilt in transport in order to deliver something to the crimea. well, they also understand that what they have discovered can be cut off by land from the russian federation yes, this is true, it would be very good because crimea, having found itself in such a conditional environment, because i think very quickly because we would be able to liberate it, because if the group remained in crimea, it would be without the supply of everything necessary for conducting hostilities. well, of course, what kind of hostilities could they do? would lead all the more with such a moral e-e state that they have panicked moods discouraged their own well, we know the very low morale level of russian servicemen, so well

, it is quite possible that this will be our main task, although again this solves the exclusion of the general staff , it can be a distracting maneuver, the most important thing is to achieve the goals that were set by the general staff. so far, everything is going as we planned. well, there is nothing. this is what the ukrainian ministry of defense and independent experts emphasize , and there they say that the russian military has built powerful lines of defense, and to overcome them, ukraine needs more people or more heavy western equipment. we need more artillery systems and more missiles so you are so uh what do you mean more people these are meat assaults no one will do this we will need a larger number of technicians of high precision especially high week then equipment that can destroy oshi oshi groups we really need planes because from the air of a helicopter, because i didn’t place the cobra raccoons, they would have been very useful for me

to destroy these fortified fortifications, the way the enemy built them, in any case , no one will storm them with a large by the amount of equipment, or by the number of people, there are different ones, yes, i think that well, i think i know what there are, what there are, yes, only what will be used, and i think that the general staff will not, uh, propose or take any actions, well, mapping the russian the federation to simply throw people into an assault well , we didn't do it like that, we are not going to do it like that, military expert oleksiy hetman was a guest of our broadcast , analyzed, shared his thoughts on his counteroffensive situation around the front today, thank you, this is freedom, morning my name is katya nekrecha further in this stream we will talk about such topics in russia they began to judge the fighters of the azov battalion among 22 military personnel 8 women are accused of terrorist activities against russia who are these people and will they be able to return them through the exchange

of prisoners what awaits them after the so-called verdicts and whether to consider this court a war crime after the tragedy in kherson oblast, after a while they evacuated to lviv, the smell was rescued from the flooded buildings, now they are undergoing rehabilitation, waiting for new owners , we will show the details soon in the story, meanwhile you can ask questions to the speakers of our morning show, just subscribe on the radio liberty channel, we follow the chat in russian rostov-on-don , the so-called trials of the soldiers of the azov battalion have begun among 22 illegal defendants, 8 women, all of them are accused of terrorist activities against russia from the beginning, the russian side announced that 24 people would be tried, but already during the meeting there it was reported that two prisoners were included in

the exchange lists of the kommersant publication that all these military men were at the azovstal plant in mariupol, surrounded by russian forces, women among the defendants worked as cooks in the funeral service, they all face from 15 years to life imprisonment, the sushi agency and here the press reported that all the defendants asked the court to recognize them as prisoners of war , but without success. azov regiment joined our broadcast. congratulations kateryna and congratulations on your personal victory at this stage of the russian-ukrainian war, but in the russian court we also saw footage among 22 illegal the defendants were 8 women, they worked in public security. and in this case, what kind of terrorist activity does russia accuse all these people of? good day. i congratulate you as well

. i thank you very much for such personal greetings. side regarding the terrorist attack in volyn, which she committed, how can you condemn people for terrorist acts who simply prepared food, for example, to detain women, and i know that there are people on the lists who were released from captivity a long, long time ago that is, they judged this act, which they prepared a long time ago, and also at this act, the court is attended by people who are no longer soldiers of the azov regiment for 3-4 years, and that is, they are condemned for this ugh, and to be honest, this is a very painful question because this the act of the court is also torture for them because you see in what condition they are now at this moment in this court look at their complexion look at their weight and this is moral torture this is psychological torture for them

and you know they freed my husband from captivity and i i can say from my own experience that boys and girls from the azov regiment are treated the most cruelly. and that is why we must speak for them. we must shout for them and they must be prioritized in the lists for exchange. katya. and why do you think such a court is made in in russia, on the one hand, it is an opportunity for the public, as far as i understand, for relatives who may not have known anything. and to learn at least something about their relatives in captivity. although to see them, for the ukrainian side, at least to understand so that these people may be about them there nothing was known before, and on the other hand, what is the purpose of these russian courts, well, do you understand that the loudest propaganda is a-a. in ukraine, it is precisely about the vase a-a, the second point is that for them the

azov regiment is, you know, very strong a method of manipulation over ukraine and for them it is a means of their internal propaganda as well show their website as their power to show what they can now in the case of a counter-offensive from our side in the case of a counter-offensive that they can also influence us with information and give us such information leaks as this court of law the sushi agency here, the press reported that all the defendants asked the so-called russian court to recognize them as prisoners of war, but without success . you consider yourself to the russian side as a prisoner, that is, you are legally a registered person there, and we have

instances in ukraine of organizations that are engaged in the exchange of prisoners of war, and on the other hand, you know that we have a russian side exchange the same guys who were missing or who were considered dead, so it seems to me that this is also a method of manipulation on their part, and in general, how many azov citizens in particular are considered prisoners of war by the russian side ? for example , military personnel of the azov regiment who left azov became, they left the guarantees of the red cross and the red cross e-e filled out the questionnaires of the so-called prisoners of war and even the red cross at the moment cannot confirm officially that these people were captured and the russian side will of course not

confirm this, that is, there is no way you know how um from which side of the evidence base of this third party, independent so to speak , which team records all these things and katya, i thank you for finding the time to get involved and talk about such important things. kateryna plechistova, the wife of a soldier of the azov regiment who was recently released from captivity, was a guest with her gift. thank you. the ukrainian side has already reacted to such actions of russia, the representative petro yatsenko of the coordination headquarters for prisoners of war recalled that international law forbids the trial of prisoners who are competent , that is, participants in hostilities subject to international law . mykhailo podolyak, adviser to the head of the president's office, called such actions another war crime of russia. photographs of the trial held in rostov over the defenders of azov steel cause nothing but disgust, skinned prosecutors and well-dressed jurors with bright smiles try

boys and girls who resemble skeletons after concentration camp and torture similar abuse of combatants this is an official war crime that must receive a proper evaluation by the international criminal court, so tell me if anyone sees in the hall representatives of the international committee of the red cross, the public organization center for civil liberties claims that the russian side violates the basis of international law regarding armed conflicts before that according to the organization, among the participants of the court in russia are at least two civilians whose contracts and service have expired before the start of a full-scale invasion oleksandr matviychuk, a human rights activist and head of the center for civil liberties, joined freedom morning oleksandr. i greet you. good afternoon. regarding the status of these people and the ukrainian military, whom we saw on the footage from the russian court, how important is the issue of the status of prisoners of war for them, and how important is the participation of a third party here , regardless so to speak, the parties, for example

, the same red cross, which i understand was not present in this court when we are talking about 22 people who are being brought through this court in rostov-on-don, we are talking about the fact that there are soldiers of the national guard of the azov brigade and there are several civilians, information about whom our organization establishes uh, uh, uh, military uh, they are prisoners of war, and actually have the privilege of a combatant, that is, according to international humanitarian law, it is forbidden to carry out trials of military personnel for the fact that they took part in hostilities, when we look at what they are accused of, we will understand that they are being tried for exactly this, they are being tried for the fact that they defended ukraine , defended people and defended our democratic choice because they are accused of participating in a terrorist organization, this is probably how russia sees the national guard and all the armed

forces of ukraine, as well as participation in the attempt to seize power. well, this is understandable because russia considers the occupied ukrainian territories to be russian territory, when we talk about civilians, then their russia had no right to detain civilians at all, there are quite limited grounds for detaining civilians, and precisely they cannot be detained more than for the time when it is determined how dangerous they are, so here it is an obvious war crime and we have already appealed to the international criminal court to pay attention to it, you also asked about the international committee of the red cross , yesterday we issued an appeal and also called on the representatives of this international organization to use all their influence in order to stop this court and the reactions not yet. as far as i understand, there is no reaction yet, or who else besides the international committee of the red

cross can be this third party under the mandate, it should be the un, there is management of the high commissioner for human rights, it has a representative office in moscow, it is clear that it works under rather difficult conditions, but who is easy now and they were also not at the court, i cannot confirm this because i was not at the court and i do not know who was in the audience or important is it important for russia to recognize these specific people as prisoners of war in order for there to be some kind of exchange, or are there any chances for an exchange when it comes to people whom russia is in court and as you say accuses of terrorist activities , considering the same mariupol as its own the territory and look at everything is the law and there are the realities of life in our realities the law does not work i will now explain about the law and then i will explain why it is more difficult in life because with regard to the law

e-e prisoners of war can be exchanged and here it is obvious that after receiving the sentence a window will open opportunities to identify negotiations for these people whom you now see in the frame of such tired and tortured and civilian people, they should not be exchanged at all, because they should be released immediately without any conditions and any delays, this is in accordance with the law now, according to reality, we are in a situation where russia sneezed on international law and on all the decisions of international organizations , so we do not say the number of civilians. because we do not know what strategy the ukrainian state has chosen in order to return those who are now passing through this shameful court. your opinion is still in practice if we talk about it and now looking at those actions of russia on these statuses, so to speak, what it gives to these

specific people, but still there is a chance for exchange because we know that two more people were exchanged for example, they came to this courtroom before they were already exchanged and returned to ukraine. it seems to me that when we talk about statuses , we do not fully understand the situation, because when they say funds, someone was given the status of a prisoner of war, this means that this person should have the full scope of the guarantee of rights in accordance with of the third geneva convention, which protects the rights of prisoners of war, but even when russia gives such a status, it does not give these people any rights, it is no secret that our prisoners in russian captivity are tortured and held in improper conditions, they do not provide medical care, they forbid communication with the outside world, they absolutely do not contribute to their religious needs there, if it is, for example, muslims who need to send their prayers

there somehow, there is a time per day. the red cross does not have any ties with relatives, that is, even when russia gives as if this status, it does not actually give it, because the status is not just a name , the status is about legal consequences and real what opportunities should a person have when he receives this status if, uh, this law was enforced well, just now there was kateryna plechistova, the wife of an azov citizen who was recently released from captivity, and she says that according to her observations, it is the azov citizens who are treated the most cruelly in russian captivity oleksandr thank you for explaining about these processes and explained in detail what is really there should be according to the law and what, unfortunately, is in practice oleksandra matviychuk, a human rights defender and head of the center for civil liberties, was

a guest of svoboda ranok, but in lviv local these days, residents are actively rehoming the four-legged animals evacuated from kherson oblast after the destruction of the kakhovsky hpp by russian troops. volunteers brought over one and a half hundred cats and dogs to lviv. they were rescued from flooded buildings or were taken at the request of the military, and now some of the animals are undergoing rehabilitation in lviv because they are under stress , volunteers say. someone has already found new owners. my colleague oleg gallif will tell you more. he saw everything with his own eyes. this is a dog, lord. well, they found him in such a village. and anton antonivka near the city of antonivka, well, everything there is completely destroyed, all the houses, but people still live , and people came to us behind the aid lagoon for food and brought him with them and, as they say, take him to the combat team. well, not really . because there is shelling , shelling all the time, if only people would give him to us, the story of the evacuated four-legged lord is told to us by volodymyr shapovalov, a man originally from the kherson region. but in

the first days of the great war, he left for lviv and went to work in a home for rescued animals when he heard about the destruction of the kakhova hpp together with chasimova volunteers from lviv, he immediately went to kherson oblast to rescue cats and dogs after the destruction of the kakhova hpp. lviv volunteers brought about 70 dogs to the home of the rescued animals here in lviv and placed them in such wooden enclosures and now they are waiting for new owners, the volunteers say that they had to work in difficult conditions for the sake of rescuing animals and dived into the water and climbed onto the upper floors of houses whose doors were already under water, they mostly rescued animals in the kherson region, the island, were taken from the houses when the people themselves turned to us, the owners themselves, well, when there is a multi -story building and there on the fourth floor there are corners and two floors under water in the apartment and

it was necessary to get there somehow, it is clear that all the sewage and everything went up to the mountain and in fact, it was difficult to get through such points because you cannot swim to the second floor by boat, but you had to climb into the water and get to these to these animals. that is , these are cats. we took them from such a flooded house, these are dogs. a black little dog without a name got stuck in a special box. the volunteers do not know her fate, but the animal needs urgent treatment, because the body is covered with torn wounds , says the animal rehabilitator, most likely she either got caught on some objects floating in the water or was with someone, she was defending herself and because of that in she started suppurating in some places. she also had a very severe torn wound here on her shoulder that our doctors could not even sew up here because it was very big

uh there was a distance between the wound and they just did it with staples, she almost hit her head on her own, she is disoriented, together with adult dogs , puppies that are only three weeks old and cats were brought to the shelter, out of 96 rescued cats, lviv residents treated almost 70 cats in the first days , there were no serious injuries injuries but there were only mental injuries - it's a very strong stress and fear this is how we have it here she is very scared of the hands of people because people didn't really want to help there because they were saving themselves and this is the first minutes of acquaintance viktoriya yurkiv from lviv with a new pet came to the home of rescued animals to take home a kitten and immediately said she liked this light-tailed cat , all the videos, the situation

, how much she was looking for me, as much as possible. somehow the cat decided everything , collected her thoughts, analyzed it what is a big responsibility, first of all, in lviv, in the shelter, i still don’t care about rescued animals and come to help with their walks, and volunteers are ready if needed to go to kherson once again, but after the cars are repaired. one of the busses used to evacuate animals is said to have been flooded by water to lviv, it was brought to lviv by a tow truck and now the car needs repair . you can watch ukraine on the channel radio svoboda ukraine on youtube well, svoboda morning with you on weekdays from 9:00 here on the channel radio svoboda on youtube also on the tv channel espresso join subscribe and of course
