[000:00:00;00] have their own opinion for those who want to read the opinion of our viewers go to our youtube channel and read these e-e comments on this i put a full stop i wish everyone a good evening and i wish you all the best take care of yourself and your loved ones goodbye i welcome you to the bbc today we are talking about what price is given to the armed forces of ukraine for every meter of freed ukrainian land right in the studio of iryna taraniuk the armed forces of ukraine surround the russians in the bahmut exclusive bbc report from the battlefield where our correspondent on issues defense learned what general syrsky will think about the pace of the ukrainian continent, western military analysts say that expectations of a quick breakthrough were exaggerated and unrealistic and note

that every even small victory on the battlefield is already a lot of revenge for the attack on the kerch bridge, moscow called airstrikes on the southern ukrainian ports of odesa and mykolaiv last night, the command of the air force of ukraine reports that the air defense forces shot down all the drones and cruise missiles, but admits that the debris fell on some objects of the port infrastructure at times, the russian authorities restored traffic on the part of the bridge that survived the russian threat of new so-called toll strikes, western correspondents called the strikes on the crimean bridge at dawn on monday a slap to the reputation of putin personally, for whom the bridge to the illegally annexed crimea was an image

project in these shots, milli and the united states secretary of defense lloyd austin of the united states opens an online meeting in the format of rammstein undertakes to supply weapons to the armed forces of ukraine as much as it will be needed. the experience that western armies are going through this statement was made today by the british minister of defense ben wallace, who said that the experience of the armed forces on the battlefield will become a model for reforming the british armed forces. the main lesson for future military reforms is the role of the latest technologies, in particular, means of electronic warfare. britain is currently reviewing its military the strategy is precisely the experience of ukraine in many ways helps the british , listen ukraine, unfortunately, and it is a tragedy that it has turned into its native combat laboratory for all those who offer

the weapons of ukrainians are taken and used, we donate them and ukraine says whether they work or not and this means that it would be foolish not to learn these lessons and not to apply them in our own armed forces to ensure that we can withstand any future conflict, one of the leading of the ukrainian military commanders, the commander of the eastern group of troops, oleksandr syrskyi, in an interview with the bbc, admitted that the counteroffensive of the armed forces of ukraine is not advancing as quickly as he would like. according to him, a lightning breakthrough is practically impossible because the russians prepared strong defensive positions bbc defense correspondent jonathan bilh visited the positions of the armed forces of ukraine near bakhmut more ihor's report the bloody battle for bakhmut is not over now the city is under the control of the russians and the armed forces of ukraine are trying to take it back together with the military we

are going to the positions of their offensive so far slow, the troops are being resisted, well , it is tense, this military man tells us that the situation at the front is tense, and as we can see, the enemies are shooting at their position, they are causing the attack is answered with the help of mortars supplied by finland and even western weapons sometimes fail far away they just launched a shelling their positions only three kilometers from here when i was last here two months ago the situation was the opposite ukrainian troops were losing their positions and were under threat from the encirclement now everything this bunker has changed, the place from where the ukrainian command coordinates steps to recapture

bakhmut, dozens of drones monitor the situation on the battlefield in real time, the commander admits that the military is incurring costs, but not in on such a scale as the russians, the initiative is ours and taking into account the amount of force that the enemy is bringing here, accordingly , he very much does not want to allow this to happen. ukrainian troops are forced to distribute their limited resources to several areas of the front, and very soon the armed forces of ukraine will receive new weapons. the united states has handed over cluster ammunition for the same american howitzers this art system you will use it for cluster munitions yes yes and do you

have any concerns on the battlefield no in the cities to use it i forbade it because it is not a politician decos notham oleksandr syrian general who manages all military operations in the east of ukraine this commander's car . that's right. he led the defense of kyiv and during the hasty counteroffensive in the kharkiv region, unlike many russian commanders, he is a favorite of his soldiers and is currently focused on returning bakhmut, that is, returning bakhmut. sovkos, of course, i am trying to do it. the offensive has been going on for over a month now. zelenskyi even president zelenskyi said that he is going slower than

expected . groups about their direction, and i want to say that in my direction around bakhmut, the entire large territory is prepared in terms of engineering, there are many strongholds, therefore, all advances. well, really are not moving as fast as we would like that the military has little success the majority of the front remains relatively stable these ukrainian trenches in the east have not moved since 2014 ukraine must mobilize all its forces for the offensive along with this and break through the heavily mined main russian

defense lines and we will talk more about the situation at the front with the guest of the broadcast, military expert dmytro snyiryov p dmytro i congratulate you and immediately to the main one you heard the report of our correspondent on the words of general syrsky about the fact that i would like to be faster but it is necessary to be realistically, in your opinion, when and under what conditions is it realistic to expect a breakthrough of the russian harrow, is it realistic to expect a breakthrough of the ukrainian troops at the time of providing us with the appropriate weapons, a line of aircraft and in 16 , respectively, engineering demining equipment , the conditions for this demining and, accordingly , the remote demining system without this breakthrough - a lot of crazy things it is impossible for the russian defense to explain something there, the level of mining by the russian occupiers of intersevity reaches in the case of 15 km in the absence of

appropriate engineering equipment about voting units of the armed forces takes place even in the traditions of the second world war, when sapper units have to remove mini-barricades with their hands, at the same time, the russian side has remote land exchange systems that actually throw mines even those areas of the front that have already been demined by the armed forces. and the main thing is the lack of support in the district without f16 the advancement of the armed forces of ukraine is quite problematic, because the russian federation currently has air superiority, they use, in addition to means of destruction, barrel-guided rocket artillery support for k-52 helicopters that operate from a distance that is safe for them, therefore, in addition to the planes, these are demining systems. we need anti-aircraft defense systems, and both army and , accordingly, with a large e-e radius of action, what is currently happening is missile terror on civilian cities and, most importantly, the lack

of cover for advanced units of the armed forces directly on the line of combat collision, mr. dmitry, it is clear that the f-16 will not be provided by the western partners before the start of this counteroffensive, it was known before, uh, and the problem of saving ammunition is a phenomenon that is mentioned in every at the international forum today, the 14th rammstein, where they also said that ukraine will be provided with anti-aircraft means to counter this missile terror that you are talking about and the new shells of the u.s. armed forces. as you heard again in our report , cluster munitions provided by the americans will begin to be used on the front, cluster munitions are able to change this minefield , they are able to change the situation on the battlefield, it is worth mentioning that the concert munition works on the coverage area from 100 to 300 m, respectively

, the use of cluster munitions will give the possibility for the armed forces of ukraine to significantly improve the capabilities of the advanced assault or detachments at the moment of the breakthrough of the occupiers' defense line, respectively, by neutralizing not only the enemy's manpower, but also the corresponding armored vehicles, in addition, it is worth saying that concert ammunition is actually an improvement of the situation with projectile support at the moment or in the future the advantage of e-e coefficients is one to 1.5 in favor of the occupying forces, therefore the use of this type of projectiles will significantly improve the actual firepower of the armed forces mr. metrenoy of ukraine, what kind of armed forces is this model for reforming the british e-e armed forces for the future on the fields themselves , nato, he released a remark that made a great industry if you remember in ukrainian social networks. and this weekend he announced that

he is leaving his post in september ukraine will continue to be supported here briefly please, literally as briefly as you can, briefly say what you think the ukrainians should be grateful for for supporting ukraine at the time of rearmament, it is worth saying that great britain is, accordingly, a beehive acted as locomotives at the moment of providing e-e cruise missiles e-e long-range radios of defeat - it was the first to actually act as the vanguard of providing us with challenger 2 tanks, this is the tank coalition, in addition, great britain acts as e-e locomotive at the moment e promoting ideas regarding the construction of the london-kiev axis ankara and this is, respectively, the influence of ukraine, great britain , the black sea basin, bbc ukraine, thank you. and

could yesterday's attack on the crimean bridge somehow contribute to the ukrainian counteroffensive , according to the pentagon spokesman, the significant difference in the battlefield and the event will not do, but here it is important to demonstrate the vulnerability of the russian infrastructure and russian supply chains. this is what the former british military strategist said on the bbc broadcast . vselensky yana zelenskyi has a kino. i don't know what he has in mind, but if you look at it from the point of view of war and planning a military campaign, everything that can delay the replenishment of supplies and weaken russia's ability to go to its goal is good. the numbers you are talking about refer to how many kilometers of territory they were able to return, but it must be taken into account attention and how many lives. it costs how much time and resources to get these, as i call it, the limitation of gains at a certain moment and speclogistic support becomes the key to the success of any war, because as one famous military leader said that if there is not enough

logistical support, the military effort is exhausted very quickly, and this is what we are seeing now, this problem in russian capabilities has always existed, something prevented them from launching any long-term counteroffensive. and what the ukrainians are doing is precisely what prevents them from doing it in military language. center of gravity there is such a thing after an attack on which you can bring the enemy to his knees, i think that the bridge was an analysis of the center of gravity of the ukrainian company one of the other aspects of this center of gravity i already mentioned critical opportunities and critical requirements there are also critical vulnerabilities and i would be surprised if in the process of strategic the planning of the russian company, they did not identify the bridge as one of their critical vulnerable places. therefore, it would force them to think about how to protect this bridge at any cost from attacks. it is because of the significant consequences that it will have if the ukrainians manage to damage this line of communication in any way, all this will help to be one step ahead, there must be

an understanding of what the consequences and actions will be in case of unforeseen situations if this critical vulnerability is damaged just now it happened and it is very, very interesting to see how russia will deal with this , the use of the sea line was mentioned as one of the contingency plans, but until the time when the so-called climax will come, there will still be so many unforeseen situations, it's all out of our hands today take care there are discounts on the number two in one 10% in pharmacies traveler pan and save pain can become an obstacle on the stairs not with my knees from

my greetings are freedom of life. my name is vlasta lazur and we are starting the issue after the crimean bridge was blown up. the russian authorities are calling for the use of so-called alternative routes through the occupied territories of ukraine . mariupol, berdyansk, melitopol . how many russians are ready for such a trip? in a minute well, after the attack on the crimean bridge , russia officially withdrew from the grain agreement that allowed the export of ukrainian food from black sea ports despite the war, how will the grain corridor work now? well, we return to the eternal topic of what the state buys during the war, and what the ukrainian government spends the money of ukrainian taxpayers on, the reconstruction of stadiums , the construction of museums for shooting new year's comedies, how appropriate such expenses are during the war, we will talk today freedom life kerch, or as it is also called the crimean city, is one of the most important links in the supply system of the russian army in

the southern regions of ukraine, critically important the object of infrastructure and the symbol of the occupation of the ukrainian peninsula was destroyed tonight for the second time since the beginning of the full-scale invasion . the crimean bridge seemed to be damaged only once , on october 8, 2022. then, as a result of the explosion of a truck with a trailer, three spans of the road bridge collapsed, and the railway bridge was also badly damaged this time judging by the published photos and videos, the railway was not damaged. by the way , the main main flow of military cargo passes through the railway, and therefore there are currently doubts about whether supply problems will begin in the russian army, how noticeable they will be, instead, almost 150 passenger cars are waiting for the ferry crossing in kerch after the traffic stop on the car lane, this is reported in particular about the kremlin news agencies, the russian authorities urge to prepare by so-called alternative routes, that is, through the occupied territories of ukraine - this is mariupol , berdyansk, melitopol, in the occupied territories

they even canceled the curfew specifically for the passage of transport to the crimea and from crimea, but how attractive such a route will be for ordinary russians is the question. well, what happened in crimea today? the chronology of events was compiled by olga armenian on the night of april 17 near the crimean bridge . at first, russian and occupation media reported about it, videos and photos began to appear on social networks. with the destruction of the crimean bridge, they can see how one of the spans of the automobile part of the bridge has come off the support, the guys of the ministry of health are closed, the governor of the belograd region, russia, vyacheslav glatkov, said that as a result of the explosion on a couple died on the crimean bridge and their daughter was injured in the hospital. the family allegedly went from russia to the crimea on vacation. the investigative committee of russia opened a case under the article of terrorist acts controlled by russia. the head of the occupied crimea, serhii aksyonov

, called the destruction of the bridge an extraordinary event in his telegram channel and urged to go to russia through other occupied territories of ukraine , which he called the new regions of russia and crimea , please use the land corridor , respectively, through the new region of the russian federation krymsky bridge was attacked by ukrainian unmanned surface drones, and the national anti-terrorist committee of russia came to this conclusion, ukrainian media, citing sources in the security service of ukraine, note that the sbu and the naval forces of ukraine were involved in the attack, but none of the ukrainian agencies officially took responsibility for the explosions in sbu reacted to the event in verse form nightingale dear brother again the bridge went to sleep taras - two postscript music

folk words sbu and the spokesman of the gourmet of ukraine andriy yusov responded in a public comment. yes, now the whole world sees multi-kilometer traffic jams and violations of bridge structures. as for additional comments, we do not comment on the reasons for this. we can only quote the words of the head of the state department of the ministry of defense of ukraine, kyryll budanov , that the construction of the crimean bridge is unnecessary. meanwhile, the president's secretary dmytro piskov of russia, in a comment to the russian media , said that putin was informed about the events on the crimean bridge. putin ordered to organize repairs to the question of how he would react russia responded to this sand attack that it does not know about it yet. now, i can’t tell if we take the final perspective, then the answer will be the achievement of all the tracks of the special military operation. the city received a lot of attention in the vava media. this is how the head of the russian project, margarita simeyan, reacted. the bridge was built with the help of the british special services, does this make

the tower bridge a legitimate goal, in my opinion it is so good, and this is a reaction about the kremlin leader volodymyr solovyov, and the bank is still standing, or is there already a giant funnel edition of the council still not destroyed and how is the bridge over the dnieper still standing after the attack on the krymsky bridge, railway transport has already resumed operation, but cars from the crimea to russia go through the occupied parts of the kherson zaporizhia and donetsk regions , this is the situation now in front of the shungar bridge of some passengers who did not make it to go by bus across the bridge to the territory of the crimea, they allegedly sent there by ferry , but today not all who wanted to get to the crimea blew up the bridge and you couldn’t in front of us

for a damn time oh in short we arrived in the fog and no, my life is shorter for us сейчас вы обратный или стоитемании мы такие olga armenian radio freedom, we are following the events in crimea well, in the meantime, they can neither confirm nor deny . how the incident with the bridge across the kerch strait will affect the events at the front and what are the chances that the bridge will eventually tire in the near future , my colleague daria kudimova asked the representative of the main intelligence agency about this the ministry of defense of ukraine, andriy yusov, bbc writes with reference to interlocutors that the sbu and

the ukrainian navy were involved in the bombing, and ukrainian intelligence was involved. ukraine and a full-scale promo invasion, in particular, this is definitely a consequence of these events . of international law well, if it is strong and legal, then everything that happens there can be said that well, actually, it does not exist, and of course after the victory we will taste and learn many interesting details, but now we should discuss only those things that really bring the ukrainian victory closer, that is the fact of what is happening with by the logistics of the occupiers . the crimean bridge, which well, we do not have an official version about this because there is an old assessment - it is an illegal construction, general bohdanov said that

the construction is unnecessary there, it should not find its numerical assessment, that it is actually not seismically stable, and the zone there is such an unfavorable bridge built with by many violations of security norms and violation of ukrainian dbn well, you can go on for a very long time, but in fact the occupation authorities are responsible for what happens in the occupied territories, well, this means that the occupiers do not control the situation in including non-logistic objects of their own, and for the general public, it should be emphasized once again that staying in close proximity to the accumulations of military equipment of the russian military objects of war criminals is something that is dangerous for life and should be avoided by everyone who is not involved in this barbaric aggressive of russia's genocidal war against ukraine, guests of the peninsula should refrain from traveling through the crimean bridge

for security purposes, choose an alternative land route through new regions, this is a literal quote, and what are these routes and are they safe for russians, it is worth emphasizing once again that there are no safe routes for russians in ukraine, there is a language that can talk about safe routes only for those russians who came out voluntarily to surrender to the ukrainian polony , use the state program, i want to live there, that's how we are ready for it to work in everything and in all other cases to expect that travel through the temporarily occupied territories will be safe for representatives of the invaders , and today a russian passport in ukrainian territories is actually a sign in particular the occupiers of the invader, well, it would be very naive and in this situation, aksyonov deliberately exposes possibly insufficiently certified, insufficiently qualified residents of the territory called the russian

federation to this kind of danger to the people who live today in this territory of this entity . it is advisable to avoid any stay in the temporarily occupied territories at all ukrainian and this means not to be swayed by any advertising offers, not to buy, for example , housing in mariupol or to take it from murdered families, not to go on vacation to the temporarily occupied crimea, well, actually the majority so it doesn't go well, there is some exotized percentage that is quite small not to participate in any propaganda , informational and other actions well, because it is simply dangerous for life and health, besides, you risk being involved in war crimes and accordingly suffered punishment for this if we he knows it for sure because he is certainly not a fool so far. well, this is already a story for how much the russian administration values ​​the lives of its own civilians. mr. andriy
