[000:00:00;00] what tv, i say goodbye to you until the next program , we will have volodymyr ogrysko , you did not miss it, please, on this, goodbye from ukraine. a new stage has begun in the ukrainian offensive, and there are even reports of a possible breakthrough of the first line of russian defense, but they say that this will not affect the speed of the offensive, one of the main obstacles

for the ukrainian army is dense mini-fields due to which breaks down. western equipment takes time to restore it, which, according to some western experts, is not enough in the ukrainian military. so, about the ukrainian offensive in the south, one of its directions is the goal of dividing the russian forces and reaching the occupied melitopol and mariupol and the crimea itself, but precisely on this front line the strongest russian defense , brigadier general oleksandr tarnavskyi, who leads the offensive in the south, said that the russian defense force makes it difficult for military equipment to advance rapidly due to multi-layered mines the ukrainian side is losing western tanks and armored vehicles from the fields, but the institute of war studies claims that ukrainian troops seem to have broken through some russian defensive positions . is the ukrainian offensive going according to plan and

have the expectations of the ukrainian commanders- in -chief changed? months and his main efforts are concentrated in the south of ukraine, where ukrainian troops are obviously trying to divide , cut, and break through the russian forces everywhere of their line of defense in an attempt to reach crimea. we spoke with the general who led this offensive in the south, this is general tarnavskyi, and he said that everything was going hard when we got to the front line, so it became very difficult for ukrainian troops to break through the well -prepared russian defenses and minefields hidden in the forest evidence of the stunning ukrainian offensive in the south is an improvised repair site where they are trying to save not old soviet equipment, but recently

acquired western armored vehicles the american bradley may have saved lives, but they themselves suffered injuries that are being slowed down by russian mini-fields, such a technician sergey says that some machines cannot be repaired, so they are disassembled for parts, this was the same brigade in the first days of the offensive, specially trained and equipped with a measure to break through the defense, on the other hand, it became an easy target and fodder for russian propaganda, now they use old soviet tanks to clear the way, but at night maxim's t-64 ran into another mine, the tank damaged one man from his team with a serious wound there are a lot of mines maxim says a huge number of mines mini fields can be in six rows it is very difficult and their ice rinks cannot withstand more than four explosions, the equipment

must be protected and the work must be done by the ukrainian infantry who are forced to cover long distances on foot, it is even more difficult for these guys to hold the terrain without armor had to retreat when their comrade was wounded behind it the drone pilot watches with pain he saw a new cruel tactic this is what he recently filmed when the ukrainian troops advancing from the right tried to capture the russian trench it was empty however it is equipped with explosives russian franchers from the russian trenches they use remote control changes and when the soldiers approach the trenches the mines explode killing our friends this is a new weapon ukraine is now also using a new weapon that is banned in more than 100 countries this howzer provided by the united states fire on

opposition russian infantry we see for the first time how they use cluster munitions cluster shells scatter dozens of small bombs over a wide area they are used to try to knock out the russian infantry and destroy the ukrainian artillery, the general who led the southern offensive defends their use, says that he is facing a more difficult enemy , they will not reach the enemy either. so that we don't have a rapid advance. how can i understand whether your offensive is a success or a failure? the most important criterion is what i see. what's for me? what's for you? if he was unsuccessful, he

didn't talk to you. the general says he hasn't yet. deployed its main strike forces, they report that this may happen soon, the bodies of dead russian soldiers and knocked out tanks indicate that ukraine is advancing, but on this battlefield there are also broken western armored vehicles, including these vehicles provided by britain, ukraine says it needs patience and time regarding time frames, it is worth remembering that most world leaders said they would support ukraine as much as they want. however, it is clear that when it gets colder, it will be much more difficult to fight , so they hope that the ukrainians will achieve significant successes this summer and they are gaining positions, of course, as the commanders say, with whom we spoke both in the east and in the south , with general tarnavskyi and others, they are not advancing all this as quickly as they would like, but general tarnavskyi also said that he has not yet used his full strike force, in other words, a large number

of troops trained in the west and equipment provided by the west, it is not involved in combat. we also heard from an official representative of the us pentagon, whom we cannot name, he said that in the last 24 hours see how ukraine is using more troops and equipment especially around the town of nuts which we visited and which is one of the two main routes in the approach to the south i think they want to show results in the near future they want to see results not only for their own morale but also to to show the west that they can return the territories taken by the russians, of course, and they really have months before it gets colder and becomes more difficult in the 9 years of war that russia is waging against ukraine, which has become one of the most mined countries in the world

the day before, volodymyr zelenskyi said in an interview with the bbc that the russian military had mined 200,000 m² of ukrainian territory, but mines are found not only in the ground, but also in ukrainian rivers and lakes. it is much more difficult to find them underwater than on land. bbc correspondent dmytro vlasov observed how ukrainian rescuers do it with the help of water drones in march 2022 the front line between ukraine and russia passed along the irpin river water and silt reservoirs hide explosive objects find and defuse them it is more difficult to find them in water than on land, at a depth of no more than half a meter, divers examine every suspicious object, it may be as a result of shelling , ammunition such as mortar and artillery shells, we also encounter ammunition even from the second world war, there are mortar mines and even hand grenades we happened to work as a diver, surface and

underwater drones help, he can now find some object, but say that it is a person there or that it is some kind of reflector, that it is some kind of thing glass can be a detail, that is why we say such a detail, now a diver will go down or with a drone we will try to photograph what is actually there, according to the state emergency service, there are about 14 thousand square kilometers of water bodies that need to be surveyed and demined, modern technologies help to find dangerous objects faster, but to lift them out of the water or to neutralize them on the spot, they will be diving, and they can go against it dmytro glaz bbc ukraine , currently one of the goals is to disperse it , the russian infrastructure appropriations in the east of ukraine

troops are destroying grain terminals on which many countries of the world rely, just recently russia destroyed 60 tons of ukrainian grain that was supposed to be delivered to china, in addition to the grain terminals , these ukrainian ports are suffering from russian attacks, and on the eve of the ministry of defense of ukraine reported that the kremlin is already preparing ships and aircraft to block some areas of the black sea , where the court will go to the ukrainian fighters, moscow will consider as a military target, regardless of the flag under which they will be, and the representative of britain at the un warns that in addition to cargo ships, russia may also begin to attack civilians further bbc correspondents markurban waves of russian drones and missiles are attacking ukrainian infrastructure and the priority of targets has shifted to ports and grain storage places, causing world food prices to rise and testing the strength of the allies' determination russia also announced that

all ships which will be heading to ukrainian ports will be considered as potential carriers of military cargo, our information indicates that the russian military may expand its targeting of ukrainian grain infrastructure and also include attacks on civilian vessels after russia withdrew from the black sea grain initiative and this happened on july 17, grain storage facilities near the odesa port came under fire at the same time , an alternative route through the danube was in the spotlight, but in recent days, sows hit on the key bridge in the south direction and monday morning on them directly one of them simply on the border with romania, a nato member ukraine still has other options available rail and

highways, but russian strikes deprive the possibility of sending large quantities of grain by sea. unfortunately for ukraine, everything began to change this week. because only on the night of monday, russian drones struck these terminals on the danube for several hours, and in our opinion, what analysts and people actually work with traders and funds, while odesa and its terminals were an important symbolic event, the donetsk terminals are more important because in recent months it was the main export hub for ukrainian grain and we are talking not only about grain, the bombing of ukrainian cities in the state of the moon was merciless, stretching ukrainian air defense and not the limits of the capabilities of russian missile production, or i think two things are important, first of all, that the russians were able to resist, but they also introduced innovations so i expected them to use shaheds. they are cheap as garbage and the russians seem to have an endless

supply of them and we know that the strategy was to exhaust ukrainian air defenses and i expect more such steps in the fall. ukrainian air defense was stretched to such an extent that there were gaps in it, and western countries. even if they wanted to send more weapons for defense from the sky, they simply may not have such an opportunity. now the question arises of how to support ukraine in the coming months economically and in terms of the supply of advanced weapons and even if the unanimity of the west to do so can be preserved , concerns are beginning to appear and sound about next year and the elections in the united states and whether this will somehow force way to rethink the strategy of the event, while the last nato summit showed the strengthening of ties between ukraine and a number of key european players, now it is american restraint and capabilities in the supply of weapons

that determine and limit how much can be achieved on the battlefield is very important and now washington pas behind and it is tragic, you know , the political arithmetic is changing, there will be elections in 2024 and they will change everything, president biden said that the american government will stand by ukraine as long as necessary, it is similar trump is the likely republican nominee if you remember rock trump he is a bit of a nato fan so until the ukrainian forces can achieve a breakthrough on the battlefield the pressure on them could not be even greater from russian attacks from the lack of weapons and from the feeling that the patience of their american allies may be running out this is it today, more history on the website bbc.ua and on our

the advance of the defense forces in the zaporizhzhia direction what is happening on the front line and whether indeed, ukraine has changed the tactics of offensive actions and why the resignation of the minister of culture and the ban on the departure of deputies from the country. publicity or if criminal proceedings were opened against the investigative journalist based on the lawsuit of the judge in which the russian passport was found, details were reported today in svoboda life, the village of vrymivka, on the border of donetsk and zaporizhzhia regions, was in the gray zone for more than a year , actually on the line of contact. despite this , 14 gunmen remained in the settlement although before the full-scale invasion

, more than one and a half thousand people lived here, and at first the ukrainian counteroffensive pushed the occupier away from the village, and residents say they felt it in radio svoboda correspondent yevheniya nazarova visited vremivka. the problem is in the cup of the garden. this is the big one. novosilky is located in this village. it was in such a gray zone for a year and a half. well, for a moment, we are taking the peasants to eat. and there are also products there. we will now go and see plantings. in connection with our counteroffensive, the guys pushed back with bearers , they are emigrating, yes, i mean 10 kilometers, and this road has become

passable well. we say words, we drive through heating, and at some time, ukraine was controlled by us, well, ukraine , then the rushes went there, and 200 of them were knocked out all the time. yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and now there was literally one here on the edge, but there, you know, behind the intersection on the street, they were still sticking out here,

in the weeds, don't put it so that's what is visible it was specially removed on the first of may here and there the wheel then on the sixth of september september and they scratched me twice on the back like we like it here neatly but everything is neat there the hall is like that and then all summer it rained here it already stuck there it is not dripping like the first one here

catch here a little, listen, it’s not scary what you have here, yours was here, probably everything was anything, nothing is scary on your land, in your village, in your country, what ’s so scary, children, great-grandfathers lived and parents, parents , we are the only people left here 14 one of the targets of the house was found in kremenets, something in the village, well, there is a relative target . well, it’s broken, but with the roof. i don’t know what it should be , how many zeros should be in order for it all to restore a peaceful sky. we need everything else, the ukrainian working, self-sacrificing people will do it themselves. i don't understand how it was possible to sit here and repeat for 1.5 years because what was invested here is such an explosion, well, how many bombs, how many hailstones, a rocket flew here, well

, it's impossible because kostyantyn denisov, the entire legion of freedom joins our broadcast konstantin, i congratulate you. thank you for finding the opportunity to join . yes, i congratulate you, the viewers of your channel. kostiantyn. i know that you are actually in the zaporizhzhia direction. please tell me what the situation is where your units are holding their positions. rifles are engaged in a counter -battery fight, our brothers are also the armed forces of the national guard and volunteer battalions, our boys are freedom, they press on the occupier , they squeeze it, they clear it, they are entrenched

, the russians respond traditionally just to the ramparts they are throwing artillery, and besides, they are actively using aviation, helicopters, their helicopters are flying here, shelling our positions in pairs, plus su-25 attack aircraft are working, the players are actively dropping bombs on the heads of our guys, shelling communities, er , they pulled many units here, if they were trying to er- not only to stop our movement, but somewhere in certain areas to recapture the lost positions, even they admit in their summaries that they lost a number of positions in the zaporozhye direction, and therefore now i i'm saying that it's just stupid sortillery all over constantine, this is the situation you're talking about there in russia, among other things, they started actively talking about the zaporizhia direction, that the armed forces of ukraine are moving forward and that

the armed forces of ukraine are suffering heavy losses , this is what the russian media are reporting. do you feel this ? such a situation as you are now describing has increased attention to this part of the front especially recently can we say that such a situation has been going on for several weeks it has been going on even for a few months ago, i keep saying that there are clashes plus they constantly mined it here, their aviation works in them why do they hold on to it so much, first of all, this is a land corridor that goes through the temporarily occupied territory of the zaporizhzhia region and also they are standing in them the number one task here is to prevent our advance towards tokmak , the vasilyvkas of the poles are large transport junctions, and

there is also a military infrastructure in tokmak, which they use to fire rockets in zaporizhzhia and in the communities of the zaporizhia district, i will remind you that the zaporizhia district is one of the five districts of the zaporizhia region that is not occupied and is completely under the control of the ukrainian authorities. of course, you feel the first thing . they already openly talk about the loss of low positions . territories, they regularly bring in batches of doctors here to treat and also some units are knocked out so theirs. i

mean that now they are waiting for replenishment, in particular, from the rostov region . that they lost a lot due to the skilful actions of our guys due to remote control artillery due to the work of the local underground, if roughly speaking due to the effective work of all the security and defense forces of ukraine actually who are you going to ask how many invaders are they quickly able to replenish their operational reserves, or is it possible that they are building new fortifications, what are you observing? well, the reserves, eh. i wouldn’t say that they are there, they are restoring them super quickly, and they are bringing them replenishment. by the way, they have already started these so- called fairy tales for a long time. i wanted the terror defense battalions to create a post. the players started to create mobs here last summer. they

are creating mobs. well, again, this is all the bullshit of mobs, battalions of terrorists, in particular, the local sudoplatova battalion. what are they? they created the first lines of defense, and behind them there are already units of the personnel of the russian army. the same marines , special purpose units and santur , find out if they are there . in addition, with regard to replenishment, they are already starting to slowly, previously they had a voluntary forced mobilization of the population from the temporarily occupied territory of the zaporizhzhia region. now they are already moving to conscription in melitopol, berdyansk , recruitment points were opened completely, they already created and brought to mind the system of military conscription desks
