[000:00:00;00] situation, the intention of our military is to conduct battles in the supply lane, i.e. the first defense lane is the stationary one that they built somewhere 3-5 km further south, and now in fact those units from the armed forces of ukraine who are leading the offensive, their idea is not only to destroy these advanced positions of the enemy by moving forward and pulling out the operational reserves of the enemy's mobile artillery reserves , first of all destroy them so that later the operational reserves with heavy

equipment could enter to break through the defense, that's about it it's happening, well, the russians are doing this and uh, obviously they're pulling in their mobile reserves or it's a fairly simple tactic, roughly speaking , reporting uh, they measure everything in kilometers and population centers uh, well, this is our advantage on the one hand, but it's very difficult battles and er, well, it can drag on for several weeks. i think that after this, somewhere in a few weeks, there will be a breakthrough in the enemy's defense, and it seems that the idea of ​​the team insists on breaking through the defense in several

directions, in this way, there will be further expansion a breakthrough, but it is still too early to talk about it. let's try to analyze the current situation . on june 19, ukrainian troops conducted successful counteroffensive operations on at least three areas of the front, says the daily report of the institute of war. forces - this is the berdyanskyi and melitopolskyi directions , so it's definitely nice for me, i just thought before the broadcast that we don't say there we are there , for example, the tokmak and volnovaskyi directions we have already clearly determined that these are the mariupol and berdyansk directions and that we will move to the sea of ​​azov itself, well, the most difficult , well

, not for nothing. this group of forces, advancing here and there, we go to the t-0812 road, which has a very important tactical significance, and in this way, on the one hand, in the tokmak direction, we endanger the encirclement of this group there , closer to the dnipro, and on the other hand, kamianske man, the upper well on the meadow, in principle, this is a small population, not points. few of the average

ukrainians are interested in this, so i will say that in fact the enemy is drawing into hostilities all that salt marsh, which is on the border on the line of defense, is pulling it, and the ossetian, some detachments and assault zep and some others er, a couple of military groups, shortages of er, regular troops, and all of this is directed there with the aim of stopping the offensive of the 429th regiment, god forbid they be lucky . actually, the situation is changing seriously and

ma-er, to the east of it direction where in the last few days, well, this is for sure, well, in the information field, it will probably be written down. in fact, everything is not quite like that, the battles are very tough, the confrontation is very tough, and the enemy is losing much more uh-uh forces than our military. things and putin here, well, i will mention it because he said that the class scheme is such that it is three times more and that the ukrainian forces are there in general, he named some completely different numbers. and tell me, do you allow such a possibility that there is a counter-offensive move plan, he can now to change from the analysts of the institute for the study of war the day before they said that they are observing such trends that it is possible that the ukrainian forces will

review the counteroffensive to review this plan, ms. malyar says that the confrontation is very tough, that the occupiers are resisting this offensive. do you really allow what can should this plan be revised or the directions changed, for example, will the direction to the sea of ​​azov be preserved, well, no one expected that the occupiers would contribute to our offensive, in fact they are preventing they are counterattacking, they are actively counterattacking, and we are still passing through, i will repeat, this is the security strip. the so-called front of that first stationary line of defense. our task at the current stage is to draw them from those fortified positions here to a more or less open field and destroy them here because it will be more difficult later. and tactical plans

can change, the specific directions of tactical strikes can change, but the general direction to azov about cutting this land corridor remains, i repeat, not for nothing, well, the directions of the strikes, our teams are in their in the reviews, it is not called nitokmatskyi of volnova, but berdyanskyi of mariupol, that is, the final point is already marked for the authorities , mr. sir, thank you, i spoke with the head of the security programs of the center for global studies , strategy 21, about the offensive of ukrainian forces. pavlo lekychuk was our guest , thank you, this is freedom in the morning. my name is katya nekrecha further in this stream we are talking about such topics ukrainian ministry of foreign affairs they appealed to the hungarian side with the demand to immediately allow the ukrainian

consul to prisoners of war according to the ministry of foreign affairs hungary took 11 people out of russia, the captured citizens of their country say that they do not follow the movements of these people. and how did the ukrainian prisoners end up in hungary , on what grounds did budapest take them from russia , and will the ukrainian authorities be able to return these people, how did the war pollute the environment mines of the environment and natural resources of ukraine have calculated the preliminary losses, it is about almost two trillion hryvnias of pollution due to the so-called military waste and due to almost 60,000 destroyed buildings, so how many years what resource does the ukrainian ecology need for restoration and what damage did the destruction of the kakhova hydroelectric power station cause if you watch us on youtube , be sure to like us, subscribe to the radio liberty channel and do not forget about this option, you can ask your questions just under this stream, the ukrainian ministry of foreign affairs turned to

the hungarian side with the demand to immediately admit the ukrainian consul to the 11 ukrainian prisoners of war who, according to the ministry of foreign affairs , hungary took the ukrainian consul from russia wrote on facebook the spokesman of the ministry of foreign affairs oleg genikolenko should assess the physical and psychological condition of the prisoners of war, tell them about their rights and provide urgent consular assistance; in fact, they are kept in isolation, do not have access to open sources of information, their communication with relatives takes place in the presence of third parties, they are denied establishing contact with the embassy of ukraine attempts of the ukrainian side to establish a constructive dialogue with the hungarian authorities through official diplomatic channels unfortunately, such actions are ignored budapest is questioning the humanitarian motives declared by them for the deportation of ukrainians to hungary, although, as cnn writes, the hungarian government denied claims that it denied ukrainian diplomats access to these 11

soldiers, hungary's secretary of state for international relations zoloton koval said that most of the military had hungarian citizenship and the rest received refugee status in hungary, he says they wanted to come to hungary themselves, they are now free and they say the hungarian government no longer tracks their movements before that, on the broadcast of the single news marathon, the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, dmytro kuleba, claimed that in the removal of ukrainian prisoners of war from russia to hungary, they were personally interested in this very fact. outside the borders of hungary that he is their only defender, but the spokesman of the european commission on foreign and security policy, peter stano, in a comment to the delfy publication, emphasized that hungary should

explain its actions regarding the transfer of action of ukrainian prisoners of war from russia and his communication on this issue, meanwhile, the deputy prime minister of hungary, yellow sam , confirmed that the russian military handed over to budapest 11 ukrainian prisoners of war transcarpathian hungarians confirmed the transfer of prisoners and the russian orthodox church on the official website of the church noted that i quote with the blessing of his holiness patriarch kirill of moscow of all russia through the mediation of the russian orthodox church within the framework of inter-church cooperation at the request on the hungarian side, there was a transfer of prisoners of war, we will discuss this with the next guest, andriy yusov, representative of the press service of the main directorate of intelligence , speak to us at the circumstances of how the ukrainian prisoners ended up in hungary

in the first place , has the ukrainian side already confirmed the names of these people? does anyone know who these 11 people are? because the names of these people should, according to international law, be confirmed by the international committee of the red cross, and the aggressor state, in turn, should provide it with information. well, in this case, the conditional other state, which is also a signatory to all agreements and, in particular, the geneva conventions, should have to inform international structures about this , in this case we still have nothing to do with it, the international committee of the red cross is not actually informed about it, even the aggressor state does not officially report anything , the defense kingdom, the so-called russian the federation did not confirm the fact of the transfer. that is, we are dealing with some very strange case, to put it mildly, like many other

cases when it comes to international law and the aggressor state, well, of course, we are waiting for official confirmation of official access to presumably 11 of course, we have a preliminary list. there is a list, however, obtained from other sources, in particular, operational channels . that is, we cannot call it official. months ago, there were 13 names. there is a list of 11, er, probably 11 that were handed over, but the fact that we are discussing this situation in general now is very unfortunate, because the event, which probably could have been absolutely positive and related to the observance of international law, saving the lives of people and our defenders e is turning into some kind of dramatic detective story with a very tangible political overtones, first of all on the part

of the russian federation, which is carrying out ipso e-e with the aim of whitewashing its own so-called russian orthodox church with the aim of dissolve, spoil the image of hungary, in particular, in the european community, and not to boil down ukraine with any possible partners, but the fact remains that 11 ukrainian prisoners of war were killed in an unknown way , probably 11 because we must be sure of this. they ended up outside the borders of the aggressor state, contrary to international law and without fulfilling the geneva convention their further fate, we heard about it mainly unilaterally from officials of another state, but not from them personally, and ukraine did not have access to the released prisoners of war, and there is information, in particular, from the relatives of some of the prisoners that in fact they were not released at that time

, in fact, they were under surveillance, contacts, communication was limited , communication with relatives, including presence of third parties and limited limited well, that is, the situation is very unfortunate and i emphasize once again that ukraine is the coordinating state for the treatment of urban prisoners, all institutions that are part of it are interested in the fact that in our e-e defenders returned from russian captivity and their lives were safe, they were not threatened by anything, and unfortunately, these are the simple interests in this situation that are provided for by international law. the hungarian side did not think and did not fulfill, obviously demonstrating other negotiators, but for this we must establish the possibility of communication with all her relatives, they must communicate this did not happen with all those released so far, and er, forgive me. when er, in fact , we had information about this russian special operation before

the official official statements of the hungarian side and on the eve of ukraine on all channels er gave requests regarding the confirmation or refutation of this information. the hungarian side not only no. well, let's say it didn't say that it didn't exist or didn't confirm. she denied the fact of carrying out this operation until the information literally became public. the content was first, then it was not made public . unilaterally, the so-called rpc. and only then did the hungarian representatives of the hungarian government actually start to give quite different information , first, that they were prisoners of war, then that they were like free people, and that they themselves appealed, but we understand that this was not the case, it was a request from hungary specifically regarding the prisoners of war, and this is confirmed, including documentary evidence, that these prisoners of war in an unknown way probably ended up on the territory of hungary, and

then ukraine did not have the opportunity to deal with them like today is the day of full-fledged communication and contact, it is possible after the recent events of the latest publicity, and in particular at the level of the european union, the european commission, we are getting a change in the situation, i would really like to believe in this it's boring times, the state secretary of hungary for international relations, zolotonkovich, says, i quote, the country no longer monitors their premises, if we understand correctly, this means that these prisoners are not in captivity anymore, they just let them go somewhere in hungary or where they are. well, we let's understand the absurdity of this thesis, that is, when the russian federation once talked about the fact that it had nothing to do with the events in donbas. and there are many other families here , some such negligent people can be traced. if you want to do a good deed, then do it properly

and you will be thanked for this, and ukraine definitely appreciates and will appreciate the help of any country's governments in the institution in the protection and release of our prisoners of war, but here we are dealing with deliberate misinformation because free people . protected by the geneva conventions, which, among other things , undertook to support hungary, this means that the conditions of their stay, their condition must be monitored and verified by ukraine and such an international the red cross committee, international institutions, none of this, everything else, well, these are political statements . well, could some of these citizens of these people or all of them have dual citizenship, i.e. hungarian , including whether it gives hungary the right to enter into these negotiations with russia or somehow take away these prisoners of war we are talking about ukrainian prisoners of war who

were on the territory of the russian federation as ukrainian citizens and ukrainian prisoners of war captured by the aggressor state and everything else - this interpretation yes, according to some information, we have information that some of them could also have a hungarian passport, but first of all, we are not talking about all of them and not even about the majority of what we are now hearing about the fact that the manipulations, further manipulations could have been very different in which way and when they received this citizenship , this is also a question that needs to be clarified separately , we understand that prisoners of war are a vulnerable category and when a person is in terrible conditions of captivity, they are offered various things that sometimes border on violation the legislation of that country or out of a sense of duty or patriotic feelings, i will not continue the list because these are sensitive topics, we understand that this is pressure on a person in alcoholic circumstances and in

order to make sure that these are free people who draw their own conclusions for sure, the state of ukraine, international organizations, their relatives should get unhindered contact with seven people, and then of course we are interested in them getting proper help , rehabilitation and, uh, being in good health and in safety, mr. andrii, maybe because publicity has already been connected by the red cross, maybe now there are some visions of ways to return these people to ukraine, well, the points of the question are being worked out. i am convinced that we are getting answers to these questions, the question is what conclusions will be drawn and if the hungarian representatives insist that their actions well, there is nothing so strange about them, and they will continue such special operations with the russian federation and for the benefit of the russian federation in the future

. we are talking about a state and a member of the european union, a member of nato, and in this situation we should not have these conversations at all, but thank each other for cooperation on the humanitarian level and move on . ukrainian sovereignty in relation to our citizens and ukrainian prisoners of war defenders of the russian contest about this situation is really strange. thank you for explaining what is known at the moment andrii yusov, representative of the press service of the main the intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine was in touch with us. almost two trillion hryvnias were incurred. this amount of damage was caused to the environment of ukraine as a result of the war. such calculations were made by the ministry of environment and natural resources of ukraine for almost one and a half years of full-scale invasion. only the so-called

military waste that harms the environment was not collected 916 billion, data from the ministry of the environment show that as a result of the russian invasion , about 60,000 buildings were destroyed , economic truth writes about this, all this waste accumulates and accumulates, and most of it in in those areas where hostilities were conducted or are being conducted, such pollutants are bricks, bricks, concrete, glass, plastic and other construction materials . they have many harmful components that get into the soil and pollute it . now in ukraine, such garbage is simply buried in landfills, but in july the law on waste management will enter into force, which corresponds to the norms of the european union and should help with reuse here, the garbage separately clogs the air with combustion products and gunpowder separately, the disaster is caused by the destruction of the kakhovsky hpp dam

39 settlements are still flooded, and the total amount of damage according to the ministry of environment is almost uah 56 billion, only the area of ​​flooded forests is tens of thousands of hectares, separately flooded settlements, affected people, destroyed infrastructure, and vice versa, places where water from the kakhovsky reservoir cannot be accessed suffer from flood services, turning into desert, such as the national parks of the great meadow and kamianska sich in the south of ukraine , we will talk about these ecological damages further on with the deputy minister of environmental protection and of natural resources of ukraine viktoriya kireeva joined our communications e p victoria p victoria i congratulate you, tell me about the consequences that are known as of now after the destruction of the kakhova hydroelectric power plant, we see photos of dead fish in kherson oblast, mykolaiv oblast, odesa oblast, wild animals, rare animals and dying, ecologists are trying to save them is it possible to somehow calculate these losses for the fauna good day you know such a disaster that has come to our environment

, we did not expect it and we were probably not even ready to think about it today the estimated amount of damages is already more than uah 55 million under the threat of disappearance of 9 objects of the emerald network and five ram lands potentially in the affected zone, as you said today that the national park, for example, the nizhny dnieper national park, in the amount of uah 46.5 billion, has already suffered large losses onions, uah 15 billion , kamianska sich, uah 73 billion, due to the lowering of the dam of the kakhova hpp , thousands of species of animals and plants that have different environmental protection status are under threat in the flooded territories. 20,000 individuals of wild animals are for the nests of migratory birds such as puffin or the great gala gaz e-e chobotar and others will not fly here next year

. a few more species e-e several hundred species of bird species and i don’t know where they will nest e plants are dying under water and endemic animals, for example, there are rodents, and others that lived only in the south of our ukraine, and the most terrible thing is that the russians committed this crime during the season of mass reproduction, many animals did not have time to be born and are already deprived of a chance for life. tell me what is possible to do in in the current situation, in particular, what is the ministry doing to prevent maximum ecological damage, today the ministry is primarily conducting operational monitoring of street conditions, air conditions, and soil conditions , because it is very important for us to understand what the situation is , how it is developing, and the environment department also works to forecast the consequences of emergency situations on the environment on the climate

today, together with scientists, we are working out a plan of measures to improve the situation, namely the restoration of the pre-industrial sector in khersonsk mykolaivska in dnipropetrovsk and other regions affected by this situation, according to the data of the environmental inspection of ukraine, there were seven gas stations on the right bank of the kherson region under the flooding zone, and there is a high probability that about 10 gas stations on the left bank were also flooded, and that is why it is the first cause was water pollution by products, and now the ministry of the environment, together with other ministries, is working to ensure the safety of other territories from pollution by oil products, tell me whether

there are already preliminary estimates of the amount of construction waste that was generated in ukraine during the martial law, it is uah 900 billion, this amount was called a-a, which is needed to clean up the so-called military waste, projectiles , building materials, household garbage a-a, how is it all can it be removed, is there already an area where the occupied areas can already begin such a cleanup, at what point is it planned, and the amount of destruction waste that was created in ukraine due to military aggression today can already be equated with the amount of solid household waste that is generated in the country by year is about 10-12 million tons , of course, we will be able to tell the final figure only after the liberation of all our territories in almost a year and a half of the war , they destroyed almost 60,000 objects, and of them , 48,000 are

of residential buildings and today it was calculated by the regional state administrations together with the ministry of environmental protection that the amount of construction waste reached almost 450,000 t.i.e. this is a big problem. worked together with the changes of the region and in the document defined the mechanisms of disposal and reuse of waste generated as a result of the destruction in the order defined eh clear tools that allow eh to ensure the ecologically safe collection and further processing of this waste, we established the requirements for the reuse of destruction waste local self-government bodies, regional military administrations should identify and organize sites for temporary waste storage, which in some regions already

it has already been done, that is, it is being determined on the ground. and when the work will start, has this date already been determined? will it be this year? work has already started in some regions , for example, a positive region, we can say kyiv region, which worked with international partners, which cooperated together with the environment, and today , with the support of the japanese agency jaika, equipment for the disposal and processing of waste has already been provided, so we are unfortunately forced to end the air time ends victoria kiryaeva, the deputy minister of environmental protection and natural resources of ukraine, was in touch with us. thank you for including, to keep up to date with important events, do not forget to subscribe to radio svoboda. in a convenient social network for you, the morning broadcast svoboda morning with you every weekday from 9:00 am: 00 i'm katya nakrechena and our whole team wish you a peaceful day and
