[000:00:00;00] we have a network and the enemy does not know where we will move next, a similar situation with the worker village opens the way to tokmak, and then the choice is whether to move towards melitopol or berdyansk. but whatever path the ukrainian general staff chooses, the strategic goal of the exit to the azov coast will be the real miracle achieved is that they advance and free the territory in conditions when the number of armored vehicles, artillery and aviation is significantly less than that of the enemy, but the quality of the weapons is higher. this ukrainian bradley performed the task even after it was hit by a russian tank, high-quality aerial reconnaissance, modern fire control systems and accurate ammunition allowed us to create an advantage over the enemy , we started by actively knocking out their artillery, the russian army is a descendant

of the soviet army, and they fight without an advantage in artillery in normal, the russians cannot have significant losses starting from the middle of may, especially in the artillery, these were records even comparable to march of the 22nd year, when the russians suffered the greatest losses in general. but does this indicate that partly approaching the second line of russian defense, it will be easier for the ukrainian troops. currently, it is believed that the occupiers have built three lines of defense in the south, the first is directly on the line of combat, the second is also called the main line directly behind it, and the third. and more precisely, the third covers key points for the occupiers of the population on this the video released by the western media shows russian mines on the thermal imager screen at a time when the enemy does not retreat and types of fierce

defensive actions in the area south of urozhain, respectively, in the southern areas rabbing ego engineering sapper unit begins to create additional lines of defensive defensive structures south of these lines where fierce fighting is currently ongoing , they also continue to change territories in order to once again maximize the prospects of projecting the ukrainian offensive, the second factor that affects our southern counteroffensive front in the east, there is also a hot august from the luhansk region , an attempt of the russian offensive on kupyansk is underway, the maximum task for the russians is to create a line of defense on the east bank river island, it is believed that the elite of the personnel russian army is currently in the east, which has not yet completely lost its fighting capacity , and the enemy has concentrated only on the kupyan direction , up to 50,000 personnel, a huge component and defense equipment, artillery , you have weapons, that is, the enemy is ready for

what is there is involved in the main unit of the first guards tank army, it is by definition an elite component of the russian army, the active actions of the russians in the east are also aimed at drawing part of the ukrainian forces from in the afternoon, this is a so-called distracting flank attack, that is, its purpose is to withdraw as much as possible our reserves and our ammunition, our equipment from the counteroffensive. in this way, to break the pace of the counteroffensive, but this plan is not successful as of now. it is not a failure either. it's a pity, we have to admit, they didn't achieve success, including because our command thought this moment through a lot, but this game can be played with two ukrainian kozyr has his own name bakhmut, his value is that he forces

it took a lot of resources to drag the occupiers there, and they are actually now very sorry that they did capture it because it would have been much easier for them to maneuver. and now they cannot allow the loss of this city purely for their symbolic and informational reasons because for them it will be like a public defeat, if we make intermediate results of the southern counteroffensive, then we can state that the success was achieved at the cost of incredible efforts and losses, and this hard work will continue for a long time. there are certain sentiments about that what do we know, somewhere right now we will fail the russians and actively start moving, as was the case in the kharkiv operation here. our task is to expand this bridgehead as much as possible in different directions, in fact, to unite them into a single line and start moving from there, but after after this, we will already have such active failures of the russians as there were, for example, in the kharkiv direction

, and constant ukrainian strikes on the logistical routes of the russian army and the methodical destruction of the military power of the occupiers will play in favor of the armed forces if they do not put their soldiers on the appropriate amount of equipment and that they do not provide them with weapons, adequate artillery and shells, they can mobilize at least 10 million, but a few mechanized brigades will deal with them very quickly, that the success of the ukrainian counteroffensive is measured primarily by the destruction of the military potential of the occupying russian army, and precisely by this methodically and irrevocably deals with the defense force of ukraine, and only then the inevitable collapse of this russian defense in the south

. russian bomb and again the death of civilians on the apple savior, one of the most important holidays for orthodox christians, not russian people who show off their piety so ostentatiously , launched a rocket in the center of chernihiv, aimed at a drama theater where an exhibition of ukrainian drones and a meeting of domestic developers was held , the idea of ​​holding such an event in the city from where to russia is only 60 km, to put it mildly, not very good, even though the organizers announced the exact time and place at the last moment, but apparently russian spies promptly leaked the information curator the building of the drama theater survived, but more than 140 people were injured in the central square, at this moment it is known about seven dead in the city, they managed to turn on the siren , but there was no chance to intercept the russian death, russia hit chernihiv with a ballistic missile, which, unfortunately, can shoot down only patriot complexes

, and we don't have many of them we believe that it is temporary , but there is another way to destroy the installations from which the missiles are launched together with the russian abomination that presses the buttons and this is a task just for the f16, which we will definitely receive this week without exaggeration, a landmark event took place. the united states officially allowed the data and the netherlands to transfer the american f-16 to ukraine. these two countries have under a hundred of these aircraft. the first fighters will be transferred as soon as our pilots complete their training. here is president volodymyr zelenskyi inspecting the legendary f-16. this is the netherlands, where the ukrainian president arrived today. in the morning, as part of a visit focused on the key art of fighter jets for ukraine to protect our people from russian terror

, sweden was the first country on the program, there it has already begun the training program of ukrainian pilots, moreover, they also test fighter jets. this plane is the pride of swedish aviation, and sweden could share it with ukraine , zelensky joked at a joint press conference with the prime minister of this country, ulf kristers, while it was possible to agree on the production of swedish combat aircraft in ukraine cv 90 machines and an increase in the supply of artillery systems became truly breakthrough agreements in the netherlands , which was announced at a joint press conference with prime minister mark rilte, another step to strengthen the air defense of ukraine, these are f 16 planes that we will use to get russian terrorists and further from ukrainian cities and forces. mark and i agreed that we can talk about the number of r16s that will be provided to ukraine after the training

of the pilots and f-16 engineers will definitely give new such energy confidence new motivation for both soldiers and civilians eh the author stands for today the netherlands has a total of 42 f-16 aircraft of which we need a few for training in denmark and later in romania because it is happening now language training and then the military stage will begin and then it will move to romania, all this will happen very quickly, we have to work on our infrastructure so that these planes can take off and land safely in ukraine at a military base , they are hidden, president zelensky heard information from the commander of the netherlands air force against technological features of the f-16 and even climbed into the cockpit, after that he went to denmark, which today officially confirmed

its readiness to hand over the f16 to ukraine directly in lithuania. one of the military bases of the royal air force, the ukrainian delegation was met personally by the country's prime minister, mette frederikson, who announced the key news at a joint press conference against the background of legendary fighters. today we announce that we will provide 19 f16 fighter jets to ukraine together with the netherlands . commitment to provide fighter jets and i hope other countries will follow this example, this is a very powerful support for us already starting training missions together today we spoke with our boys and girls who are studying and will work here with the f-16 and then will work with the f-16 in our skies, i was happy to hear

good words about our soldiers from my colleagues in denmark, about 70 aviation specialists from ukraine are starting training prime minister the country hopes that closer to the new year , the first six f16 aircraft will fly to ukraine next year, eight more fighters and then five more will be delivered, this is a powerful breakthrough agreement that will strengthen the air shield over ukraine, why is the f16 so important for of our air defense, due to which it is a head better than the soviet migs, as an american plane will strengthen the ukrainian counteroffensive and ultimately help win this war, all the secrets of the combat falcon were revealed to our artyom kuli by an american pilot who flew on this machine and knows it like the back of his hand, the us state wisconsin on an f-16 begins a maneuver during

military exercises, drops a 200 kg bomb on conditional enemy positions, soon they will perform their maneuvers as in the 16th in the ukrainian sky for more than a year. kyiv asked the western allies to hand over these fighters and here it came down to specifics in ukraine , three or four squadrons are primarily needed, i.e. 40-50 planes, this is the calculation of the ukrainian military command, where does this figure come from, and what is the point of changing such a number of fighters. in 16 de in hampton and ex-commander of the air forces of great britain greg bahvel for tens of years of service in the army , they took in three military mastered persian

gulfs and kosovo and therefore know almost everything about f16 f16 fighting game falcona, translated from english, the fighting falcon is a symbol of fourth-generation aviation, because it is in service with 25 countries of the world, the maximum speed is almost 2.5 thousand kilometers per hour, the combat radius is 550 km, it can gain height in vertical flight, it is equipped with a 20-millimeter cannon, it can make up to six thousand shots per minute and can use various classes of modern missiles that are capable of hitting both air and foreign targets, according to many characteristics, this fighter surpasses even the modern, more maneuverable russian su-35 is told by the american pilot ingenton radar usu-35 - this is a 30-year-old technology of the f16 radar is much more perfect and gives you much more opportunities to shoot down targets at long distances not just one but many

targets as many targets as you have missiles besides ours in airplanes the pilot is the central computer and all sensors all displays avionics weapons everything goes through the pilot we wear special helmets that allow us to never look down the cockpit f16 participated in most us military companies the most famous of which is definitely operation desert storm, but what tasks can be prepared for them in ukraine , let's figure it out, ukraine is currently capable of shooting down up to 90% of russian missiles, the latest anti-aircraft systems, and the samsairists petri ot and mammals, which are actively transferring to ukraine allies to block all vital ob "jets in ukraine cannot, and precisely the f16 will complete this chain and close the gaps. the most interesting thing about those planes is that they can reach those specific places and

close any gaping holes. so, if you using systems like patriot or your s300 or other systems and let's say one of those systems has to shut down because it is under attack then the f16 gives you the ability to close that gap so you don't have any holes in your air defense network but if against such ragged missiles like kha-101 and caliber 16 shows itself brilliantly to overcome the ballistic daggers of the iskander or the 300 on its own. it probably won’t be able to, but in this case it can become additional eyes of anti-aircraft systems when it is in the air. it has its own radar and information from this, from its radar, it can be transmitted to any system and to the patriot and nasans and arrest and magpies you then all these countermeasures on the complexes can offend this missile and even in automatic mode they are over most of the territory of ukraine enemy planes do not come in

they are afraid of being hit air defense, but on the contact line under the cover of aviation, the occupiers seem to be performing some ground maneuvers, so one of the main tasks from the 16th and the front will be the destruction of enemy attack aircraft , helicopters and other fighters, and in order to isolate the area of ​​hostilities from russian aviation, they will also be able to cover the advance of the ukrainian army on the ground, usually you fight together, one plane communicates and shares information with another, i will not give you an example when one f-16 can shoot with weapons that are controlled by another f-16 through the channel data transmission through connections and such techniques, such tactics begin to expand your range and begin to make the picture much more confusing for the enemy , for this, in the arsenal of the combatant mykola, there are a number of air-to-air missiles, for example advanced amram medium-range missile that can reach targets at a distance of up to 160 km and, unlike the modernized soviet f16 myths, can use

it almost invisibly for enemy anti-aircraft use expand the range of weapons that the ukrainian air force is capable of using fighters can use high-precision aerial bombs both guided and unguided for example, smart jade bombs that can hit targets with high accuracy, destroying armor and concrete bunkers, if we have an f16 , then it can act as a tactical tasks yes tactical operational tactical this is close to the contact line - this is the impression of the technique of the impression of the accumulation in the wound impression of the air defense systems of the rap systems all the means will be very good to destroy in 16 missiles the right method of using the f16 depends in many respects from its modification, despite the fact that the plane was put into mass production

back in 1978, it constantly underwent various upgrades, an additional plus is that everything inside is modular, so improving it is not a problem, it is a lego constructor for updating it is enough to replace only a certain block, the last version on which it is flying in 2006, i had a modification of the block 60 and it was great . i mean the color displays are great, the weapons are great , the long-range fuel tanks, or until ukraine will have 3-4 squadrons, that is, 40-50 aircraft for this the question of the former commander of the air force of great britain says directly that everything depends on what tasks these fighters will be used for, i think , first of all, we need to be realistic if we take this number as 40-50 fighters - this will not lead to the fact that ukraine will instantly dominate over russia it's just not going to be enough for objective reasons there's still a lot of ground defense systems around on both sides so we 're talking about using the f-16 in the most intelligent way to create what i call local air superiority conditions

so instead of try to dominate the entire border, you will try to use them where you choose f16 will change the course of the ukrainian counteroffensive, each plane can carry four harm missiles, destroy enemy anti-aircraft , clearing the way with another fighter and drones that will not miss the opportunity to strike enemy positions, the arsenal headquarters will help solve many problems with the crimean bridge and restore order in the sea, drive away from the borders russian planes that are shelling the front-line territory. and the key f16 will help our troops on earth to occupy ukrainian territories artem kulya facts of the week ictv is the only news, watch friends

. by the way, in the month of july 30, this is the third flight without a pilot over moscow city, the business center of the occupiers, where the ministries are located expensive apartments, the business of the invaders is being conducted. this week, a drone also attacked the russian air base in saltsiv, novgorod region. strategic bombers are based there, the 22 that the russian federation uses for attacks on ukraine . at least two sides are damaged, and this is despite the fact that the airfield is 650 km from our border. the laying of routes for drones, the detection of russian air defense points , the incredible fire in dagestan attracts special attention this week, which, according to local residents and experts, directly

connected with the war in ukraine, there was an explosion of such force that 35 people were killed, 100 people were injured, 400 houses were damaged. no, this is not a drone attack, but the story is just a detective story, according to the version of the russian investigation, the fire broke out in the premises of the car service, then spread to the nearby gas station, according to one of the versions, it was stored there saltpeter and a local businessman rented the premises. well , it's a great idea to keep an explosive chemical next to the gas station. the adventures and sound of a man from a resident of the city of caspiansk, a neighbor of makhachkala, on social networks. they started writing that it is very similar to the launch of missiles. and it must be said that it is from the caspian sea that russian bombers are shelling ukraine, perhaps one of the missiles turned out to be faulty and did not fly a bit. by the way, the video of the first seconds

after the launch , a part of the projectile could trigger the detonation of the chemicals, which is quite similar to the place where the rocket fell, this is what local journalists who conducted their investigation write, and it is not devoid of meaning let's remember the self-striking of rostov or belgorod, do you remember how in april a russian su-24 accidentally dropped an aerial bomb on the streets of belgorod as if it had been taken to ukraine and then assures that everything is going according to plan. meanwhile , panickedly looking for military and economic support, the first thing in china this week is quite alarming the bell was the visit of the head of the ministry of defense to russia and belarus, his statements on the expansion of military cooperation were made against the background of the russian army forum 20-23, what is behind this, what are the real

steps and interests, oksana explained butler's dangerous tour of china's defense minister this time with fire why did li shanfu go to moscow and minsk chinese chests hide many secrets did he meet with putin and what does the chinese service gift to lukashenka symbolize belarus is a disputed territory between russia and china will this visit affect the war in they are for peace in ukraine in those languages, and i congratulate the pregnant women for them. and will beijing decide to escalate with the event moscow , a delegation from third world countries will arrive , a security forum set up by the kremlin from even some members of the csto refused to participate in it, but the visit of the chinese defense minister seems to add solidity . and why did beijing send the head of its defense

department to russia, obviously not an unorganized cerebral international exhibition of weapons where the largest expositions were from china and the wound and india, and russian developments like that a rubber inflatable chapel for the front or another replica of a chinese robot from the russians is unlikely to have impressed pli shanfu, because even shoigu with an iron alyosha did not understand the exposition or all its completion, please, the latest military developments that can be boasted at the very security forum that praised him soviet weapons are planning equipment even of soviet production superior in their combat qualities to the western model , meanwhile, the chinese defense minister spoke about geopolitics against the background of whispered statements, although the deepening of cooperation with the eu by the countries of the global south and the nearest neighbors

sounded message to the united states is playing with fire and attempts to control china with the help of taiwan will inevitably end in failure after such statements by the son-in-law to moscow and minsk began to call it a signal for washington, saying that china has undertaken to strengthen the anti-one coalition , that is, to strengthen cooperation with russia and belarus, despite the mistake, the image of a neutral peacemaker to stop russian aggression in ukraine, which appeared after that very saudi arabia, must understand that for china, er, peace - it is not the same for us, for us it is the liberation of our territory and, ideally, the defeat of russia, moreover , it is final, and for china it is the end of the conflict and the preservation of the potential of russia as an ally of the people's republic of china in

opposed by the united states of america, he did not speak publicly about the war in ukraine, and it seems that the most interesting part of his visit took place. of the endless appearance of putin's doppelgangers, he is publicly managed by the chinese defense minister putin, who instead of speaking at the security forum sent a video message, and experts did not rule out that some secret negotiations did take place in completely rule out that, apart from the meeting with their lips, there were some closed unofficial meetings that we do not know about even with this putin himself, to whom the chinese minister of defense could simply convey a message from all of xi jinping, it cannot be ruled out that what was agreed behind those closed doors after all, it was a visit by the minister of defense, so china does not yet plan to help russia with weapons so that

it does not suffer defeat in the war of attrition in ukraine and how beijing helps moscow directly now china is a supplier , it does not supply the weapons system there directly, it seems that it does not supply ammunition, but what concerns private contractors, what concerns the supply of drones, what simply concerns the supply of electronics, including what directly prevents the single use of communication systems, not only does not stop these technologies that, well, at least pass through the category of dual use, but even contribute to the fact that the volume of such water supply would increase, it would already stop such and such assistance military cooperation between russia and china is actually not at a high enough level, they constantly conduct training, even joint sea and air patrols , in which state contracts in

the military-industrial sphere are still valid, in particular agreements on the production of as-400 missile systems , k-52 helicopters and 135 fighter jets, for which chinese components are supplied for purchase by russia with weapons, li shanfu himself has been under american sanctions for 5 years. and for a free russia in ukraine, china is not just watching and looking at russia as a mirror necessary for preparing for the great war against er, well, in general, in the pacific ocean, the pacific region against and ivaniv against the usa and others, china is already trying to figure out a lot of things from the russian experience, how best to use hypersonic missiles, because china actually has them, unlike the russians. how do your islands use electronic warfare how to improve the use of drones, and they look at how the russians are fighting incorrectly and think that they will now fight more freely after the not too ostentatious reception

in moscow of lukashenko in minsk for the chinese the guest arranged everything in the style of the father of the people with a sumptuous reception and gifts of li shangfu to the proclaimed leader of belarus, he presented a chinese samovar as if to suggest drinking not russian tea, but chinese tea, this is an important souvenir, i will definitely show it to our porcelain factory so that they will make exactly like the chinese in belarus for russia and china's somewhat disputed territory moscow may have already implemented its plan to absorb the neighboring dictatorship and it is more profitable for beijing to have it under its influence as a separate country oleksandr lukashenko oleksandr lukashenko at one time when the russian ambassador in minsk was actively organizing the same thing that he and his colleagues were doing in crimea before the annexation. lukashenko went to china and had time to complain to everyone, and as a result the ambassador was recalled most likely under pressure from china, that is, they have competition here for belarus and china

considers it as its zone of interests for china belarus is profitable as a kind of outpost near the borders of nato excellent position in beijing's anti-western coalition lukashenko understands well who is a strong guarantee of his rule, so salyubka demonstrates the role of a cheerful sisinpin, one minister, the main ideas of the current and future prospective peace settlement of the thai people's republic and belarus coincide absolutely with china, negotiated in minsk, maybe it was about nuclear weapons that russia transferred to belarus, because beijing was against it, so what signal could they convey to lukashenka, if you will be pressured from the kremlin, what will you be pressured from the kremlin to do something about it, i mean from luna to us and we will deal with this problem and if you suddenly together with them you will want to arrange some kind of story
