[000:00:00;00] by entering the code, you can get detailed instructions on how to do it. i think that this is not a problem, and my friends will put an end to the next program. i wish everyone good health. take care of yourself and your relatives . it's time to prepare for a change of power in russia . let's talk about it today on bbc ukraine. i 'm olga ponomaryev. the world continues to analyze the consequences of the prigozhina rebellion. on the part of the european union and nato, tensions in western capitals have only increased, while these events may have unexpected consequences for

russia itself and its authorities, that is, for putin , so much so that western countries should be ready and stop being afraid of a change of power in the kremlin, analysts warn, let's start with the situation on at the front from a report by a bbc correspondent, brand urbana, however, how did the progoshyn rebellion in russia affect the front line, did the armed forces of ukraine manage to take advantage , or was it at all a short spoiler so far the events in russia did not directly affect the front, but the counteroffensive of the armed forces of ukraine only began, so the turmoil that began in russia the day before had almost no effect on the war in ukraine , the british ministry of defense says that we should exaggerate the scale of destabilization, that it somehow seriously derailed the kremlin, what we

see now is the fact that prigozhin went to belarus, that wagner's group mostly lost its strength, that it was dispersed depends on how you want to interpret it, and the russian general staff is still continuing the war in ukraine, but why 10,000 well-equipped fighters were taken to the streets at wagner's exit groups but can the russian forces, which are now in a difficult situation, really afford to disband these units since last month they have not been on the front line and this after suffering heavy losses during the battles according to bakhmut, their disbandment means that the russians a vo place political loyalty higher than the presence of this reserve or they are satisfied with the current level of their military forces, they need the right people, so i believe that it was completely loyal to the regime and those they wanted to get rid of, i think it is quite possible that in russia it will be necessary to recruit even more people

to replace those who joined the prigozhin uprising, but i do not think that this is a large number of people, it is difficult to say how many there were, in fact , prigozhin himself named the number close to 25,000 but i think in reality there were up to 8,000 so i'm not sure if that's enough to really benefit ukraine and while in russia the pop house war in ukraine was going on an important change on the front in the last few days ukrainian forces have created a bridgehead on the left bank of the dnieper near the destroyed antonov bridge. it will be very difficult to expand this foothold, but if the armed forces of ukraine can cope with this, it will open up opportunities to put pressure on the western edge of the russian defense in the east. in 2014 , it was under the control of russia and the obstacles that have to be overcome are very

dangerous, this video shows how the ukrainians successfully demined the rocket field with explosives inside they rise into the sky flies through a changing field when it falls and explodes, clearing the way for further ukrainian troops in this case successfully, but with regard to the main direction of the counteroffensive, at least for now, progress remains slow, this is the section of the offensive of a wide front to the south near zaporizhzhia, a russian appeared on the network a video in which you can see how the operation of ukrainian forces to clear a minefield ended in failure, the video contains brutal footage so we cannot show it in its entirety, but on it you can see that the ukrainian military is advancing on several mines, so instead of continuing the operation, they should pick up the wounded and return to the base. you can see how they then launch smoke grenades to cover their

departure. if you look more closely at this key area of ​​the southern front, you can see where the ukrainian forces were able to take positions for example, in the village of zinopil, but if you look deeper, you will see that their successes are still quite modest, but the ukrainian forces still have five fresh military brigades that have undergone training in the west and who have not yet been involved in hostilities, so there are still many options before them, but they will have to hope that the price that ancient events in russia will really undermine the morale of the russian troops, that soon there will be a breakthrough, well, in moscow, meanwhile, the history of the mutiny is trying to be presented as a personal one putin's victory , in recent days the russian leader often appears in front of television cameras with statements and speeches that radiate confidence, but today, for example , putin spoke at a forum in moscow where he spoke

about strong ideas, russian developments and the day before, he hugged and took pictures with people in dagestan, but behind the screen everything looks completely different , bbc correspondent sara rainford says that vladimir putin has tried to prove over the past few days that he looks as if he is working as if nothing happened, so today's appearance in public is part of such an effort he talks about things that have nothing to do with challenging his authority and power with those spectacular events of the past weekend he is clearly trying to move on it will be interesting to see or not the audience will have something similar to staged questions about those events, but it won't happen , that is, if there is such a question, it means that he himself wanted to talk about it, and this is one of those opportunities to talk about it, of course, we are watching carefully and it is worth it attention, but we saw him the day before in dagestan, in the caucasus, during his visit, and there he was greeted like some kind

of rock star, people in the crowd and mostly women shouted loudly and reached out to shake his hand. putin kissed a girl on the head who desperately asked her mother to take a picture of her together with him but again, as she said, this is all part of efforts to restore putin's authority as president to show him popularly that he still controls everything. keep in mind that the russian media market is completely controlled by the kremlin, so all such pictures are part of the restoration operation his reputation, although the wounds have not healed. they are still these cracks that have come to the surface. i think that in the russian elite, in general, among the russian population, there are now many people who have seen in recent days a completely different putin and i don't think they will forget it, i don't think so, but the efforts now are aimed at moving on, so to speak, patching up these cracks, but you know, a lot of things are also happening behind the scenes, there are talks about cleansing when individual people are trying to get rid of anyone

who was involved with yevgeny prigozhin and his attempts to send people on a march to moscow and the surprise capture of the city of rostov, the question is how it happened. russian cities, so a lot of questions still remain unanswered, and i think that a purge is possible among high-ranking officials if they were in any way involved in what happened in brussels. burel, the head of eu diplomacy, noted here, i will quote, that putin is obviously coming out of this crisis weaker, but a weaker putin is more of a danger. so we need to be good at understanding the consequences. that's what burel said. well, let's go back to expert assessments or

indeed, putin is weaker. if so, how far can everything go on the bbc, the expert of the german marshall fund , christine berzina, spoke about it. it was a big shock for the putin regime. there is one thing that was perceived as something natural in the states and in europe and in beijing, too a sense of the stability and infinity of the putin regime in russia, that it was, is and will be, and here suddenly this crazy choice in moscow is stopped two hours away from it, and moscow has a feeling of possible instability and that the putin regime should not last that long how long does putin live and what other options are there and now president putin is desperately trying to dominate, he is changing narratives to reduce his vulnerability because of what happened last weekend but the cracks have not split anywhere , whether they will be fatal or not is not clear and i don't think that will clear it up in the near future but the light that penetrates through these cracks is the possibility that there may be some

other political future in russia. we do not yet know what it will be, this does not necessarily mean that there will be some work to liberate political prisoners and we are accustomed to a democratic regime, but now there is predictable uncertainty in moscow, which has a number of consequences not only for russia and russians, but also for everyone around russia. if we talk about lukashenka's role in this story, then he is not a prominent or independent actor on the political scene. in general, a very convenient pawn in the hands of putin, which allows him to deploy troops, conduct training , transfer weapons to his territory, but now to have such a semi-autonomous figure as prigozhyn in belarus allows lukashenko too look more independent if you have much more troops in your country very qualified troops and it has already been proven what atrocities wagner's fighters committed in ukraine in africa and in syria so if you have this kind of force in belarus so close to the borders

of nato that makes you an active player in the heart of nato and they should more carefully monitor the common border and also guarantees that there will be an immediate reaction to any training near the borders with the baltic countries or poland, this is a kind of powerful signal that the support of the eastern countries will be serious because we don't know what to expect from russia, we don't know the plans of belarus, lukashenka, prigozhina, and we don't want to be caught off guard by any development of events , prigozhina's mutiny is primarily an exposure of putin. a day of this was enough to raise the question of whether putin will be able to hold the levers of influence in his hands and who can come to replace him , the expert community is now thinking about whether there are alternative options in russia and whether

russian society is ready for a new leader american publicist apple bound shared her thoughts on the air one year. what should be remembered about russia is that the question is not who will replace putin, the question is also who elects this person. putin completely destroyed the very idea of ​​any election process, he got rid of it. he destroyed all potential rivals, he destroyed the liberal position, he made it impossible for society to even think about any alternative in moscow. there are probably people who would like to replace putin, but we don't even know their names, we don't see them in public prigozhin became the first of this number of people who declared himself and now it seems that putin is going to destroy him and putin has created an atmosphere around him that makes any changes impossible and that is why when such changes take place it will be a huge crisis, this means that even if he dies for example in a dream, will he be hit by a bus

, this will be followed by a crisis, because his entourage will fight for you to take his place, if we look , stalin was replaced. almost immediately after his death, an incredible struggle for power among various factions began around inside the polishers and eventually someone appeared and it was khrushchev the difference with modern russia is that now there are no roads and even approximately institutions from which one could theoretically choose a leader and i think that is why people are afraid of instability i would mention another important thing that mikhail khodorkovsky said that putin is one of the worst russian leaders imaginable he started a genocidal war he seeks to destabilize european states he interferes in elections in the united states france in many other places he destroys his own country supports dictatorial regimes around the world in venezuela is believed in africa and the idea that he can leave office

no matter what crisis it causes is not what we should be afraid of we should think about it we should hope that new opportunities are many other candidates in russia, who would be the best leaders? i am not saying that this will definitely happen or that there are any guarantees. but we have such an attitude towards russia that we want everything to remain as it is simply because it is the devil we know. we we know that every time the case gets worse and worse, and that's all for today, look for more stories on our website bbc.ua on our pages in social networks, there is always up

. several western media reported this at once. meanwhile , the russian president began to actively tour the country for what. and what will putin do to regain control over all by the kremlin, the possibility of connections with state traitors and political involvement, or why anti-corruption organizations warn against appointing the winner of the competition as the new head of armagh, what is known about elena duma, and why the head of the agency for the search for russian assets is of great importance for the work of the entire anti-corruption system , the defense force continues to advance on melitopol's berdian and in the bakhmut directions, there is progress, deputy minister of defense hanna malyar reported in telegram, according to her words, "they are biting out for isu"

every meter of land in a difficult duel, the painter also noted that the occupiers are pulling up all their reserves for defense, even a marine brigade that literally fled from kherson at one time. among the successes, she noted in particular the advance in the direction of bakhmut , including in the direction of klishivka, where the ukrainian military advanced 1,200 m and in the direction of kurdyumivka, where the advance is 1.5 km, on the air svoboda ranok, the commander of the reconnaissance company of the 57th brigade, a prisoner from yaroslavl , confirmed that the strength of the defense of ukraine in the south from bakhmut, they actually took control of the village of klishchevka, this is a strategic point from which the offensive will begin, and directly to the south of bakhmut , from klishchevka , bakhmut can be seen in the palm of your hand, in principle. battles, if berkhivka and kleschivka are completely taken under control, these are two strategic heights from the north

and share bakhmut .

uh, mined fields, uh, a very dense system of the trenches is very difficult, but during the assault and before the assault, she familiarized herself with the plans for the system of enemy trenches , so when our servicemen entered there, they already knew where to go and what to do, this greatly simplified the task, and how now is the enemy trying to recapture these territories, which in general the situation in the bakhmut direction, well, now, thanks to our actions, we seized the initiative, of course, the enemy tried to retake the position, but we managed to cut them off for the time being , so now the guys are digging better and , well, they are standing, standing in their positions about the dam, what significance does it have for further counteroffensive actions? well, here we have to look at bigger plans, and here the direction

is bigger than what our brigade alone holds and the task performed by the brigades, so here is a question of a more strategic nature , i can't say here yevhen you asked a little about the fact that the positions were densely mined. and what else . can you point out any peculiarity in how the russian troops have recently been strengthening their efforts to hold the positions, well, in contrast to the counteroffensive that we carried out for times of kharkiv, let's say so, the kharkiv company, their company. there was much more time to prepare a more serious line of defense, so it can be said that this time they had, when they had already lost their offensive potential, they used it fully in order to strengthen their defensive the potential is here, i think , not only here but also in other directions

, storming is much more difficult now due to the fact that the enemy simply had more time to prepare their defensive lines, but we are doing this work, it is not a quick process, but step by step breaks through with a step. and if we are not talking about fortifications, but about the tactics of the military themselves, have they changed? and how have they changed? if so, well, the tactics, uh, before that , when the enemy was advancing, they were obviously advancing . now they are defending. of course, defending is a little easier, especially when you have serious fortifications . buildings, therefore, the tactics of defensive combat are defended in some areas, they do not hold very well there , they immediately begin to retreat, but there are areas where the enemy is quite strong, and they fight back

to the last, we talked about the fact that areas near bakhmut, the wagnerites have recently moved away from their position. and who is currently fighting there on the russian side ? do you know about those who hold those positions? well , during the assaults, we encountered regular units of the russian army and the so-called storm z - who are they subordinate to? to the ministry of defense of the russian federation, how well are they prepared? if we talk about this storm , the so-called zed , i can’t say about the preparation, but they are standing quite normally, because i think there are already barricades behind them the squads are waiting, that's why they are not retreating as quickly as the emoera started yevgena i thank you very much for taking the time to join our broadcast thank you yevhen , an officer of the 28th separate mechanized brigade was

in direct contact with us thank you ukrainian troops carry out offensive actions in zaporizhzhya every day in the direction of trying to break through the defense line of the russian army, it partially succeeds at a great cost, and in order to preserve the personnel of the troops, they use the m2 bradley armored vehicle transferred by the united states to the armed forces, according to the soldiers, this particular vehicle is reliable protection on the battlefield about mini-fields assault actions and counteroffensive of the armed forces of ukraine in the video radio svoboda with fighters of the 47th separate mechanized brigade of magura further for your attention this is a protective plate от они ети следы от акумулятимые прилют shrapnel broke the trimplik o-e glass on ios, well, on the operators, the equipment is foreign, it helps a lot that it has a very strong outfit, the personnel from the crew , when our equipment is attacked, thank god

, it is preserved when the armor of the american brand recorded the ukrainian infantry. personally, i am alone once it was blown up in an anti-tank war and there was a direct hit of a cumulative projectile into the tower, i.e. when a cumulative projectile hit the tower, the sighting device was damaged and the triplex was broken, and only the mechanic driver sustained a concussion, all other crew members and the landing party were intact, similarly we had many times when er bradley was blown up on anti-tank mines er the maximum that happened to the car it's just a tear of the gooseneck , a bump and damage to the roller . execution of the task is the maximum injury that occurred during the detonation of the target, this is a common

contusion, not even a moderate one. we were in close combat, came into contact with the enemy, we had a very minimal number of personnel, it was somewhere around 7-10 people, we continued on, we had to go to clear the trenches there was an enemy somewhere, there was a certain amount, too, five personnel, we were already exhausted, but we had to continue our work and we went to clean up, too, there was a new one, the enemy was destroyed by our artillery, we cleaned the trenches, because we too the enemy's tank and artillery also worked, well, no matter how we did our job, we got a foothold, we were fortunately replaced, a large amount

of this work is not difficult, and when you start working with the wounded, it's just your job. even when it 's people close to you, you do your job, you don't think about some emotions about the moral side. you just work, but it becomes difficult when there is a break between battles, when it is time to rest, then you start to think about everyone, they return at night, the ambassador saved those who could have been saved, but you were not around a this is the most difficult thing, you understand that if you were there and could help someone and did not help and this is the most difficult thing, we have many of our fallen brothers and we understand that the only way out for us is to move forward well, because this is our land and we understand that it is all ours and we
