, the commander also reported on the successful offensive operation in the direction of bakhmut andriy biletskyi of the third assault brigade of the armed forces of ukraine also showed a video of the battle for the positions near bakhmut recorded on the chest camera of the ukrainian soldiers. we must warn you that these videos contain footage of a real battle and the capture of russian soldiers and may shock you. on the shoulder of this guards motorized rifle brigade of the russian federation, in fact, this battalion ceased to exist as an organized military force, more than 30 killed by the enemy, a dozen, a

dozen prisoners, and fifty wounded that is, the broth does not exist as far as the west bank of the siversky canal, donetsk, donbass is completely cleared of the enemy, i will note the diary reports of the russian ministry of defense report that all the attacks of the ukrainian defense forces on artemivsk are successful, so in russia they still call it bakhmut , let's talk about these events in detail oleksandr borodin, press officer of the third separate assault brigade joined the air svoboda ranok. i welcome you to our air. thank you for joining mr. oleksandr, tell me the details . on june 24, mr. biletskyi said that the bridgehead

the enemy on the western bank of the channel siverskyi donetsk donbass has been completely cleared, what details of this operation can you tell us ah well, in general, i can’t be very specific because this is part of the next assaults, but we went for a very long time step by step to clear this coast because ah it was very important that this coast is optimal and as for defense if there will be a counterattack as well as for the accumulation of slopes . this storm extreme assault let's say he completed this uh this work was the last one there for several weeks uh and we have reached this point therefore now there is no longer an enemy here in general it is done this is how the extreme assault was done in general one many uh we have in general, such an operation, they are point-based, that is, we do not throw many people there , they are small groups of attack aircraft, only

professionals and they prepare very carefully by the meter, they literally work out in the training center and accordingly work successfully . that is, can you elaborate on this for a long time how much is meant? see, this is all a series of small assaults, roughly speaking, small in relation to the front, which took place over the course of a month and which led to the fact that we destroyed the enemy on this coast. and every time, we prepare very carefully . that is, we take the same ones, the next operation is going on, we know where we are going to fight, we find the same area of ​​terrain in the rear, well, the same one, and we practice on it. along the metro in small groups , how will it go where? how will the armor go, and so on that's why we still carefully and chi

can you explain how important these positions are and what opportunities their recapture gives to the ukrainian military now well, first of all, although we now consider the initiative on our side to be an initiative in order to carry out the rudder further, but for example, the defense component is very important because between us and the enemy as anal what well, he will move with the existing forces, it’s unrealistic, that is, some kind of counter, and yes, from his side, well, at least to our positions, to the positions of our brigades, well, it’s unrealistic. but on the other hand, there is an opportunity to accumulate more bridgeheads and let's say it's better to have better starting positions in order to advance further and how many of the russian military were taken prisoner on the video, there are such fragments and can you tell me who these russian military are, they are cadre military there, they are mobilized, er, they are mobilized, although i would like to point out

what about growth - our extreme assault was comparable to previous assaults, there were many tromozites and regular army storming, but they put them in front of them as such, let's call them fines. so now it was still a more personnel army mobilized and volunteers were mobilized fewer, these are very motivated people, i mean volunteers and personnel soldiers and it was a complex assault and more self-identified soldiers were taken prisoner, well, that is, they surrender more often let's say that because the personnel are trying to pull away or run or hmm fight to end and did the wagnerites meet in this direction or do they still remain or are they still in ukraine on the battlefield er-er these wagnerites we haven't seen them for probably more than a month well more than three weeks yes exactly a-a because well, they are in principle when

they said that they are shooting there if there is nothing in our positions , ah, and they really stopped being there - instead of them, in this storm of terminological defense, the central military commission of the russian federation and personnel troops act differently than the mobilized russian military, eh, again, what is it some kind of motivation is mobilized at all, if they really surrender in order to survive, do they see any sense in the fact that they are participating in the russian-ukrainian war, well, look at the volunteers differently, well, they are mobilized, there are two groups, the first of which was simply captured somewhere and there are volunteers, volunteers, so they, er, they have some er, their own ideology regarding all this and they fight there quite strongly, and again, er, in the majority, you understand that war is at the level of

military personnel and in they lose this motivation because of the first map of the shelling of people, which is why there is a storm here in different ways to take very pumped up propaganda, that is, they think that they will have their uh something will be cut off from them, and yet another thing is that they are afraid to surrender, although later they understand that they could in the best in the conditions than it was in russia because they were all prisoners, and here we have food and, in principle , warmth, yes, but they are very washed-up military personnel, they drag their own, well, they compare with the first second groups, uh, that is, they have 300, so they are engaged in 300 -you, they don't leave theirs, they occupy theirs, yes. well, they do according to the constitution exactly as they should do. such a new soviet army, we are with you. thank you for such details. thank you for taking the time to join. oleksandr borodin, press officer

of the third separate assault brigade was a guest freedom of the morning became a stronghold for the ukrainian military near bakhmut, the city of the time ravine is taken there, wounded ukrainian soldiers are taken there during battles near the city, ukrainian artillery works near the city, artillerymen support the infantry during counteroffensive actions against the armed forces of ukraine, journalists from the router visited the positions near the time ravine, details are offered to see here this is how ukrainian artillery works near temporary yar, which is located 15 kilometers west of bakhmut , ukrainian artillerymen support the infantry in counteroffensive against russian forces igor, an artilleryman of the 57th separate motorized infantry brigade, says that they work like this almost constantly 3-4 times, since ours have now gone on the offensive, they are asking

to break the line of defense and we work regularly . igor's brother, 29-year-old mykhailo, says that the ukrainian infantry is breaking through the russian defense but has made little progress in the last week in our direction, the situation is very tense due to the fact that our infantry is breaking through the enemy force and since we are his artillery, we help them, support them and thanks to us thanks to a skillful whim, we are breaking through, making some small progress, but the doctor with the call sign yoda, before the start of the full-scale invasion , worked as a family doctor , now he helps wounded ukrainian soldiers who were evacuated from bakhmut, he says that 90% of patients have shrapnel wounds , shrapnel wounds are more than mines, but

there is a lot of artillery, there are tanks and tours , it is clear that when you get there , there are not many bullets, but in fact, an hour before you arrived, there was a bullet in the shoulder and in the chest, so there will still be a percentage of shrapnel 90 in july last year, in may 2023, the head of the private military company wagner yevgeny prigozhin declared that the ukrainian side had completely captured the city - this was not confirmed, stating that the siege was held in the western part of the city in the area of ​​the plane , along with this, the gods continued on the flanks near bakhmut anastasia potapenko freedom of the morning , russian forces probably killed two minor boys from the residents of occupied berdyansk. this was reported by the verkhovna rada commissioner for human rights, dmytro glubinets , he also called the two boys killed - this

tigran oganisyan and nikita khangan and here is his in the given earlier these guys fell into battle with the occupiers and allegedly killed one russian military and local policeman in a video that appeared on the network, one of the guys with a machine gun in his hands and tactical gloves says this is the death of the boy forgive the glory of ukraine and continue, the video is interrupted, the representative of the occupation authorities of the occupied zaporizhzhia , volodymyr rogov, confirmed the death of two people as a result of the shootout, he named one of the allegedly dead tigers on oganessyan at the same time, from olga reshetilova, coordinator of the action initiative for human rights, reports that the parents have not yet seen the children. they have been interrogating them for a day. searches are being conducted and they are not sure if the boys really died or are being held for some purpose . but they managed to escape. now, according to her, ukrainian investigative

bodies have initiated criminal proceedings for the murder of children. i will remind you that in the spring of 23, the investigative committee of russia nominated the boys were accused of allegedly preparing sabotage on the railway, they were accused of violating the article, which provides from 10 to 20 years of imprisonment, the causative agents of dangerous diseases , the extinction of forest lands, the reduction of the population of birds, animals and fish, this is all a far from complete list of environmental consequences that ukraine will experience due to the destruction by the russians ecologists have only just begun to calculate the damage caused by the kakhovsky hpp dam, because the final assessment of the scale will be possible only after the complete deoccupation of the territory. however, already now in zaporizhzhia, dnipropetrovsk, kherson, mykolaiv, and odesa regions, swimming and fishing have been banned , people are being scared by pathogens of dangerous viruses, as if correspondents ivan antipenko and kateryna

bankova tried to find out and what damage has been done to the environment, and this is the result: odesa square in kherson at the moment of the greatest flooding after the destruction of kakhovskaya the hydroelectric power station water here dragged several meters here , rescuers from the state emergency service, volunteers and other services evacuated people and pets now . as you can see, the water has already receded, but left mrs. olga still has a lot of problems for herself. she is currently putting the family business in order. her family owns a grocery store in the kherson region. she says that the water in the store was above the windows , the refrigerators were all over the top, they drank the equipment. i want candy, ice cream , sausage .

they didn't suffocate the stinker, they flooded it, that is, they didn't bomb it, they flooded the pillows , that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's all that was, i won everything, that's all that was inside. they emphasize that the damage caused by the flooding of such a human faucet is relatively small. compared to what was also swept away by the great water on its way, cattle cemeteries, this cemetery, these warehouses are good for poison chemicals and a storage of petroleum products, in such a nutrient environment , microscopic algae and bacteria, many of which multiply very quickly are the causative agents of very dangerous diseases, because of this in kherson oblast, swimming and

fishing have already been banned tests, certificates, well, the most. trust, yes, we used to take river fish, cook it, eat it without problems, early damage to the fish resources of the region is said in the ecoinspection to be a significant 95,000 tons, which is the loss of this farm , taking into account the loss of the fish that was already in the kakhov reservoir, the loss of the fish that could be reproduced in our natural volumes, prohibited fishing and swimming are currently in force in the neighboring mykolaiv odesa , dnipropetrovsk and zaporizhia regions , in addition to the causative agents of dangerous diseases, the ecoinspection is monitoring oil spills which was in the mechanisms of the destroyed hydroelectric power station and is wary of mole deposits, we will test all these tests for the presence of nitrates or a third of phosphates , that is, all the chemical elements this time, which controls are you sure the inspection for suspended substances, let them really be extremely large, the excess is currently the state consumer service of the region does not recommend using water from the well bottled water is recommended for drinking, meanwhile, ecologists are calculating

the damage caused to nature under the flood , about 50,000 hectares of forest land has been affected , half of them will simply die due to shut down, this disaster became very important for the animal reproduction period, the spawning period, we are not worried about the hedgehogs there, the lizards there, the newts there, the media, there are millions of soaps, you understand, before the destruction of the dams , about 20 cubic kilometers of water were stored in the kakhov reservoir. four , many communities above the dam are currently building new waterworks because the old water intake pipes are dry, and even now the unique irrigation system of the south is not working, the consequences of the destruction of the dam the kakhovka hydroelectric power station was not bypassed, and odessa still receives various garbage, but in addition to such obvious damage, there is something worse , dangerous infections were found in the water, so the already

unsuccessful resort season in odessa was finally ruined . on the sand from the longa but after the destruction of the hydroelectric power plant and the water pollution , there are not many people who want to relax on the beach , there are very few logs, the house floated here and there , then it collapsed somewhere. horror, i do not enter the water and with friends, what am i telling them so that it is not dangerous for you? and personally, it is difficult for odesa. it is very difficult, that is why i do not enter the water. first of all, i will emphasize once again that this is a ban and it is clear. well, secondly, the water is not conducive to swimming at all. as they say in odessa , the sea is under repair, it is already 100%. but sometimes to

it is not only junk that comes ashore.'' the cemetery of animal corpses , the decay of organic matter will lead to the flowering of water, to the eurifification of water bodies, sooner or later to the formation of oxygen-free zones, to exhaustion, when a large amount of animals is thrown ashore. and they also emphasize nature. lines of defense, however, calms the ecologist, natural ecosystems and biosystems are recovering quite well , but for this, the destructive

factor of war must disappear kateryna bankova ivan antipenko vladyslav nedilsky radio svoboda is the freedom of the morning and i will remind you that we are with you every weekday from 9:00 here on the radio svoboda channel , the eastern group of troops launched an offensive in several directions at the same time. in particular , in donetsk region, in the direction of orekhovo cornflower, bahmuta , bogdanivka, berry tick, and kuryumovka, there is an advance, she noted all these settlements along the contact line near bahmuta . i have to mark it in the southern directions heavy fighting continues during the offensive, the painter told about it, the russian forces there are on the defensive and , according to her, making little effort to stop the offensive of the armed forces of ukraine, meanwhile, the russian so-called soldiers report that they allegedly crossed the dnipro river in the kherson region in the area of

​​the antoniv bridge and now they receive small bridgeheads on the left occupied bank, they also report the threat of encirclement officially, neither the ukrainian nor the russian command has yet confirmed the authenticity of this information we also cannot quickly confirm and verify in the conditions of war about the situation on all areas of the front, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhnye told general mark milli during a phone call emilia, i remind you, is the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of the united states , he spoke about offensive and defensive actions of the ukrainian units, you noted that the operation is ongoing. as a guest, serhiy cherevaty, the spokesman for the eastern group of the armed forces of the ukrainian armed forces, joined

the freedom of the morning. sergey , i congratulate you . thank you for joining. good morning, tell me what is the situation at the front, what are the updates for the last few days, well, in the bakhmut direction. during the day, there were 17 combat clashes there 343 times, the enemy attacked panas with various types of artillery , carried out two raids during our actions, we destroyed 153 invaders, 203 were wounded, out of six were captured, we also destroyed two self-propelled guns artillery installations of the e-e, 13 communities, an amphibious assault vehicle, four unmanned aerial vehicles, one control point for unmanned aerial vehicles and one anti-tank complex, e-e, the enemy also tried to storm our limon in the kupyan direction , 477 times on the nose, various types

of artillery hit our positions 12 so the enemy 11 air raids in the course of repulsing the enemy's fields, 99 occupiers were destroyed, 152 were wounded, two were taken prisoner, two armored personnel carriers were knocked out , one infantry fighting vehicle with a machine gun, a stas artillery installation, a d-20 howitzer six kamikaze drones, a mortar and a mortar, and at the same time as the events in russia this weekend, the deputy minister of defense anna-malyar reported that the offensive is advancing in six directions on the front at the same time. are these offensive actions continuing now, or has the situation changed somewhere ? in the higher said we are storming the enemy in the direction of bakhmut, the military reports on the advance in the area of ​​bakhmut , can you tell us why this became possible and what has changed, how can you now

sum up which territory is currently controlled by the armed forces of ukraine temperature verification will be a little later on yesterday we gave data, and i hear that thanks to which it was possible, i will say that here is a very important fact, the fact must be taken into account that it is thanks to the talent of our military chiefs of staff, the incredible courage and ingenuity of our soldiers, because we have here there is no superiority in personnel and technique over the enemy, only the motivation of the students allows us to beat him to achieve using each of his elements , some, some, some of its weaknesses, their inconsistencies and rotational processes, this and thanks to this, we will line up the enemy as it was during the kharkiv operation, when we also did not have an advantage over it, the training of these people is our main weapon , these people, from penalty officers to an officer

of an assault company or a sergeant or a soldier who goes into battle exactly thanks to them, mr. serhiy is able to achieve success there. the events in russia were not directly reflected on the front, that is, the deployment of russian forces, the number of armaments of the russian forces, the number of russian troops, as it was in the ukrainian at the front, it remained unchanged there, a little bit, you even have to think backwards that it was the events in the bakhmut direction that were the trigger for the events in russia, eh, the defeated wagner was returning to russia, eh, the fact that he was defeated caused friction between them, the political leadership, the military the political leadership, the political military leadership, gerasim and shelga in this strife continues on the territory of russia, led to those events, and so, of course, this all demoralizes the enemy, just like the very exit to england

of the broken - this is kolyvan wagner when they the landing party, which infantry, which they saw, of course, did not give them any optimism, and what is currently working there is also what we hear from the intercepts, it demotivates the enemy, we use this in every one of their micros , such a disadvantage, and we are already trying to use it to our advantage here are there any representatives of the wagnerites still left at the front, have they all left and left their positions, these two supermans? i have already forgotten their nicknames, which you remember in bakhmut. he said that if it is difficult for the armed forces russia, they will help them. no, he brought out his units . and it is even more so that they are preparing for this putsch, and what is more, there was even friction between them, and you remember when they and the lieutenant colonel of the russian army were taken prisoner there

the attempt to detonate was such that there is no big brotherly relationship between them, and it makes sense, accordingly, there are other chivykas there and other dudes , shallower ones there from gazprom. their recruitment of criminals at the military commissariats, storm companies, storm z ugh, that is, these groups actually replaced the wagnerites at the front, correctly, and we are the main force of the landing force - this is a clear marker that they will receive bakhmut at any cost, because the rapid loss of bakhmut - it's simple. it's probably already the bifurcation point of their inglorious end, because at first they didn't take it in 10 days. they didn't take it until the end in 10 months. they took the district center when they took rostov voronezh in a day and then
