[000:00:00;00] caused great public dissatisfaction, but one of the advantages of the president's office is precisely that they respond quite sensitively to public opinion. i think that 's what tkachenko paid for . to appoint tkachenko, he is completely leaving politics, is he still a valuable person and his skills, knowledge, skills, experience would still be needed somewhere else, there is such a tradition, i will remind our audience that often uh, loyal people are appointed as ambassadors, absolutely right yes yes, i am. well, this is absolutely possible. that is, it is really a continuation of a rather strange tradition when people who do not have any diplomatic experience are sent as ambassadors at a time when ukraine really needs and even has professional ambassadors. i will not be at all surprised if mr. tkachenko suddenly becomes diplomats to represent country to

some foreign country. i thank you very much volodymyr vyatrovych, people's deputy , european solidarity faction, member of the committee on humanitarian information policy, we talked about the resignation of the minister of culture oleksandr tkachenko, which may take place soon. well, as for who can replace him, thank you very much for flying to the maldives during the war on a business trip . deputy from the servant of the people yuriy aristov fell ill in the office of the prosecutor general . they told us what ways the deputy used to rest in the maldives. so in july 2023, ariston went to poland for three days on the basis of a business trip with the purpose, as stated in this trip, to deepen bilateral cooperation with the government of the republic of lithuania after that remotely, aristo opened a hospital stay in one of the private medical institutions of kyiv, respectively, without conducting a medical examination, and already during the hospital stay, the deputy flew to the maldives with his family. that's what

the prosecutors told the prosecutor's office today, together with the sbu and the dbr, searched the deputy's house, published photos, including passports aristov, where you can see the markings that testify to the one-week stay of the servant of the people in the maldives from july 14 to 21, investigators are establishing how the people's deputy was able to end up in holiday in the maldives, despite the ban on officials traveling abroad, in particular, they will investigate the possible entry of knowingly false information into official documents about his departure regarding the period of the purpose and countries of the trip, criminal proceedings are being investigated under the article of official forgery, the sanction of the article provides for restriction of freedom for up to three years well, i will remind you about the departure the deputy from the maldives was the first to be informed by the journalists of the investigative information, according to the journalists, the cost was seen at one of

the five-star resorts where the cost of living for two in one night, according to the prices on the booking service, the difference is from thousands to uah 323,000. well, as calculated by the head of the investigation, info on babinets, accommodation alone could have cost aristov $40,000, as the journalist notes. more precisely , society is unlikely to see the exact amount of his expenses in aristov's declaration well, because i will remind you that the declaration for officials was canceled due to the war. we invite the viewers of radio svoboda to subscribe to the pages of radio svoboda on the internet, like this broadcast, and svoboda life will return to the air tomorrow there are discounts on exoderil cream 20% in pharmacies traveller, you and oschad, pain can become an obstacle because stairs are not with knees from knee pain try

of combat operations for the period of july 18-24, 2023. at the front, there is a warm-up with counterattacks in the armed forces. successes and losses in luhansk region, the russians are breaking through to kupyansk , on the other hand, the armed forces of ukraine are having success in bakhmut and in the south of our country, luhansk region, the enemy's attack on kupyansk forced the zsu to attract reserves, according to approximate estimates, a hundred thousand group of russians has been trying to break through the 150-kilometer front for more than a month in luhansk oblast, the occupiers have several goals: firstly, to completely occupy luhansk oblast within its administrative borders, and even better to push back the defense forces as far as the skyl river in kharkiv oblast, and secondly, to force the armed forces of ukraine will attract there the reserves that were planned for the counteroffensive in the south. and in the end, a more far-sighted goal is to create tactical conditions for the occupation of the northern salient in donetsk region, which covers the entrance to sloviansk and kramatorsk. until this week

, our defenders repelled all attacks by the rashists , but on july 17-18, the occupiers found a hole in the ukrainian defense, they broke through the defense in one of the previously calmest areas of the front near the village of karmazinivka, which is 15 km south of svatovo, in a few days they managed to cross the zerebets river and create a bridgehead 6 km wide and 4.5 km deep into our territory, the main attack of the invaders was aimed at the villages of novoyahorivka and cherneshchyna of the dssu, strategic panels were engaged in the night , from them you can not only shoot russians who attack from below, but in case of their loss , a significant horizon of shelling opens up to the city of borov that on oskolia, which is the main target of the enemy, in addition to strengthening its offensive, the enemy launched attacks on several parallel sections from svatovo on a direct

route to borova through the village of raihorodka as well from this route, from the village of fontelne in the direction of vyshneve, as well as the makiyivka square, which is further south. at present, these directions of the offensive , the landslide is able to hold back and also stop the main attack of the invaders, however, for this , additional reserves had to be brought into the battle, not yet assaults , in order to bore the battles of our defenders for sinkivka in order to to create a threat to kupyansk , also to the west and south of the flint mine, they are attacking the torsky belogorivka and a wide area of ​​silver forestry . in the near future, the main strikes of the invaders will be aimed at advancing in the directions at the borov estuary, however, it is quite likely that the involved reserves of the armed forces of ukraine will completely close the breakthrough and push the enemy back to their previous positions. until the last one was obtained for

a penny, because its loss opens up great prospects for the armed forces of ukraine for the encirclement of bakhmut, and since the afternoon, every day, the occupiers have carried out massive butchery. they entered the village, partially cleared it and left it to their initial positions, waiting for a new assault, because at this stage , it was important for our military not only to make an ideal advance, because according to the data of the general staff, our troops advancing have losses eight times less than the russians however, on july 24, our defenders managed to break through the defense of the ridges near andriivka and approach the shelter of the village, as well as enter the southern outskirts of klichivka. the consequence of such a breakthrough may well be that the front it will rain and the enemy will have to flee all the way to the bakhmut horlivka road and hold defenses in the area of ​​the village of opytne. moreover, the zsu continues to storm with a wide front , advancing to kurdyumivka and ozaryanivka to the north of bakhmut near berkivka, the situation remained unchanged, but this was compensated

by the fact that the defense forces pushed back the enemy in the area interchrome and berry, actually forcing him to return to the city limits, this will make it possible to attack the berry berkhivka with a wider front, at the same time, the armed forces of ukraine gradually continue to displace the russians from the heights on the bakhmut-slavyansk highway and widening the klyna district yakovlevka and the military are trying to reach the northern outskirts of soledar and thereby create a threat to its partial encirclement on the southern front of the armed forces of ukraine are creating new pressure zones in zaporizhzhia and southern donetsk region, there are three main locations where heavy fighting continues in particular, the village of pyatykhatky in the vasylkiv direction, not over the tokmak direction, from staromayorsk in the berdyan direction, in all three sections during the week, rashly conducted a large number of their counterattacks, but all of them either they did not succeed at all or the success was very insignificant, at the same time the rashists abandoned the battle, most of their reserves, therefore, the creation of any other pressure zones becomes quite

problematic for them, for example, it happened in the strategically important for the occupiers in the village of kaminske, which closed the road to vasilivka from the first months occupation, the russians took control of the southwestern part of the village, which is divided by the river, but the other day they unexpectedly broke through the zaporizhzhia-vasylivka road. and where they occupied part of this village, russia on which all those who remained in it fell into a semi-encirclement, they will probably soon be forced to flee, in addition, the armed forces began to bypass the village, working from the flanks, and just behind it in the lowlands, the main line of defense of the occupiers was located, so the defense forces are engaged in gaining control over the heights, and then you will be able to break through from above enemy defenses in the area of ​​the table of staro maiorske shelter are not counterattacked by the armed forces of the russian federation attacking in the direction of novodarivka azsu, on the other hand, already control half of the village of staro maiorske and have entered the rear the enemy 700 m from his right flank, at the same time the defense forces are storming

the northeastern outskirts of the shelter, so the offensive troops of the occupiers may find themselves sandwiched between two ukrainian brigades within a week. offensive in several more areas, it seems that the defense of the russians will not be able to withstand the tension and will be forced to close the crimea. on july 17 , the armed forces of ukraine delivered the second historic blow to the crimean bridge despite the fact that the main goal - the city's railway remained functional, this created logistical problems on ebay and demonstrated that the task of completely cutting this artery is a matter of time and there is not long to wait, the medicine is taking weeks, meanwhile, on july 19, the armed forces of ukraine blew up a military warehouse at the stary crimea training ground what made the occupying authorities to evacuate nearby villages on july 22 , four storm shadow missiles and six drones that were not shot down flew into the warehouses of the military

base in october, where the occupiers kept three tons of projectiles were also detonated on this day in the abandoned airbase of new ivanivka and in a facility on the outskirts of simferopol. on july 24, warehouses on the outskirts of villages were hit freely and in the novosteppe, which on the jankoi-krasnogvardiyske highway. finally, on july 25 , cotton blossomed in the vicinity of the yevpatoria airfield. number and frequency of blows indicates that the time of a full-scale offensive is steadily approaching, we are winning daily death to the enemy so our troops are advancing in at least three directions , firstly in the south, secondly, near the bahmutu and meanwhile, in principle, it is enough. the difficult situation remains near the matchmaker, this is a matchmaker shade, that is, a matchmaker, well , the kremenets, er, an attempt by the russians there.

i am already in touch with ivan kyrychevskyi, a military expert defense express. greetings, ivan. good day. let's look at this situation. we have already talked about it here. let them return. maybe even the map with the piece that is near the new yew tree is er there er a little bit above the match you seem if i'm not mistaken er, yes, actually, in these last few days, er, literally, er, 25 days ago, such a story happened that the russians managed to expand near karmazinovka, er, there, their such and such a position , which they captured then, and they managed to do it all to move forward and control the new yegorivka, as well as our troops near nadia and serhiivka, well, in fact, they retreated a little and so on. and it was already said here that after

this the russians have such a desire to advance there actually tell you what the danger is of such a breakthrough and what can happen, how important is borova to them, how important is fire control to borova , what do we have now after the russians managed to advance ? a little from the other side from the other side from the same side let's say this, if we take the general picture of the russians there, it is not enough to say that they simply overtook a lot of troops there at the level of 100,000 manpower, 900 tanks, that is, in principle, 50% of all available tanks in orders of the occupying forces there, the russians even at the same time brought their revived so-called first guards tank army, which was supposed to threaten

nato, to arrange rapid tank breakthroughs and the like and the like, probably the russians just hoped that they would spend a few weeks there their strong so-called assaults with the use of e-e squads of penalty z and thus create a full-fledged let's say a breakthrough of our defense so that full-fledged full-fledged tanks can be introduced there units and introduce them into battle for such rapid breakthroughs. and then i was already asking the tasks of what format to really create . well, first of all, she thought about the possibilities of advancing on the donetsk region . if we take further a strategic framework , that is, thanks to these active actions in the kupyan, in the public direction , to create conditions when, after the completion of our contrast to the north, to return

to the attempt of this great offensive in the east and if you look at it from this point of view, then by and large the russians succeeded. well, except partly this task of pulling the reserves of bakhmut in the direction. that is, the weakening of the pressure on their positions near bakhmut, respectively, somehow, it is still too early to think below how quickly our troops will be able to take kopanki well, in the very place of the fortress, but if we take here from the situation that is behind, that is, the russians, after several weeks of pressure, were able to recapture three small villages in which before the war there lived a maximum of not 100 people, and what opens up space for them there are less than 1,250 and instead of trying to hit kupyansk because kup yansk, after all, there is a railway there for them, space opens up for them, then here we can characterize

the situation, let's say, two on one side , it is very difficult for our troops there. yes, for the guys to be forced to restrain these literally orders, because there are not a hundred thousand people on the 150-kilometer front is not what you call the russians on bahmu - for an assault on bahmu, but no less, of course, there may be losses, well, killed, wounded , and the like, and even more so, as some of the official languages ​​of the line claim, what about the russians it was possible to take these three villages only because at some point the administration was disorganized, that is, it was a very difficult situation, but on the other hand, it is worth noting that, in principle , this previous month , it was so successful that the russians were forced to carry out a defensive operation there to adjust the plans to carry out the plans for their offensive instead of introducing their tank units in full they have to use the tank well, as usual, that is, for shooting and closed fire positions from

afar and instead of attacking on the kupyansk they have the maximum that is lit offensive on the boruva but if brothers, even this is a sign that a probable attack by the russians on borova, if indeed there are russian troops there, that it is possible to establish fire control for shelling , a combat situation because another one is coming out a civilian point in the kharkiv region was under their attack. that is, our peaceful ukrainians will suffer there, but if we take into account the fact that even with the current increase in efforts, the russians are advancing approximately 3 km in a week , well, there are 20 kilometers to the border, well, let's say that the armed forces of ukraine still have enough resources from time to even prevent the advance of the russians, it is even in that direction , that's why you know, yes, on the one hand, it was bad that the russians there, in principle, there is an opportunity to advance and they create for us

problems but it's good that the armed forces of ukraine instead have the opportunity to create even more problems for the russians there, to significantly increase their offensive potential. ugh, thank you . well, viktor burlyk, a soldier of the zaporizhzhya ssu, has also joined us. congratulations, viktor. congratulations, studio. congratulations, viktor. well, first of all. uh, now it continues like this, well , it seems that the gradual advancement there is quite difficult, and by the way, we have such a graph that shows that in fact the main one is, as it were, a characteristic of the moment that at this time we are knocking out a lot of air defense there heavy equipment of the enemy, if you look at the losses of the enemy, especially heavy texts of equipment, special equipment, you will see how sharply these losses have increased in the last three months, they continue to grow, that is, in fact, the main goal now is to infiltrate, let's say, through the mini fields and knock out the a i equipment well, how is this task being carried out and how

does the situation currently look on your part of the front , if we take the direction of melitopol, i am exactly from kamiansky to horikhov, the fighting here in two sections is not the direction of the work. the direction of the pyatikhatka is foals. meadows should of course understand the problems of this area, because it is the south, there is sparse afforestation, large clusters cannot be formed than assault fists, no , at all, the equipment should be brought closer, because the enemy sees everything, their drones fly and they are trying to somehow immediately go with drones or artillery there and other atgm complexes, that is why the tactics have changed to small assault groups , the legendary 47th brigade, if you take the direction in the work on the next karadas together with the guard

that is, little by little, they are knocking out eh, they must understand that this direction has been standing for almost a year, that is, the enemy had the opportunity to dig in, mine everything, eh, make logistical entrances of the same artillery , different junctions, bull depots, that is, all of this is usually destroyed by the armed forces of the ukrainians bright an example is even to take means of ptova. i just remember a month ago , what was the situation, the stork could not fly close at once, or was sticking out, and others were knocking down some mirrors, now more or less the situation has improved, of course the enemy is pulling, but those e-e volumes that were before the start of the counteroffensive and are close to none, i will say that it is difficult, each piece of e-e release is expensive on the side of the armed forces of ukraine, because human blood is being shed

, our potential. to drive, therefore, the main task is being carried out little by little, the occupier is gradually being ground down, the artillery is working as hard as possible in order to minimize losses among the personnel of the armed forces, and with this vector we are moving further, viktor , you know, i want to ask you one more thing, since the last for two days, everyone is discussing this so-called secret report to the bundessphere, how secret it is, if it leaked into the world , that is another question, that is, the newspaper german pain. then on tuesday, july 25, it published something that seemed to be criticized in the bundeswehr. the armed forces of ukraine and there, according to those who wrote that somehow how many ukraine divides its training in the west of the brigade into small units there in groups of 10 to 30 soldiers isolated from the rest of the troops to attack

the enemy position ani western training ani better weapons, even a large number of soldiers standing nearby do not bring any benefit, this means that the advantage of the ukrainian troops over the russian invasion army, as seen by the west, will disappear, and in general, this is due to individual mistakes or shortcomings in the training of the us army and other western troops, which mostly takes place in germany and with the ukrainian operational doctrine, which they consider to be incorrect. and here the commanders on the ground literally do not allow well-trained soldiers in the west to show all their advantages. of western education, that is, we look, we all, i’m sorry, we all understand that of course, when such things are published in russia , it must be said that in germany there are quite a lot of russian agents, they have a wundesver in the bundestag , a whole alternative for germany, whose deputies simply speak directly on russian television a little every day, and that’s why the fact that this

document appeared somewhere, especially since it was leaked to the press, it is to some extent an informational operation, but all the same. partners regarding the use of this tactic of small groups, that this is only such a far-fetched thing , i believe that it is calculated to save the personnel as much as possible, because the doctrine of the war of the bundessphere, like the united states, it is objectively evaluated, it is not aimed at the fight against the russian army. and about that of some tribes, and the reaction of the afghans there to the fact that they are not against the russian army, when do you remember the situation when i was explaining to the german instructors, the instructor was asked why you don't go around my fields because they are unrealistic go around the whole line is completely mined, it's not 2 hectares, it's mined

, well, they don't even understand the volume and scale of such systems. i think that such systems are fish, objectively, let's evaluate the army by russia, if they told me there, it's one of the most powerful countries, then the system is necessary they have anti-battery combat, this is it, objectively talk about air superiority , give us 16, give us air superiority and of course the counterattack will go a little faster , you understand. there are even directions where the armed forces break through two bells , russian k-52s are raised there, their assault aircraft are raised aviation, bombers and simply destroy even approximately a segment, they shut down operationally, we have no advantage in the air, nuts are thrown with kababs, and you understood this is a very powerful weapon against which ukraine it is difficult to fight and we need to understand this, we also need air defense our beer protects a lot of just
