[000:00:00;00] the last 2-3 days will be decisive related to how the dynamics around the work will be. thank you mr. serhiy serhii zgorets was in touch with us a minute of silence in ukraine we will honor with a minute of silence the memory of ukrainian military and peaceful citizens

of ukraine who died in the war that it was unleashed by russia, congratulations - this is the freedom of the morning. my name is katya nekrecha, and further on in this stream we talk about such topics, the main offensive is now in the south, and the courts are having success there again , the ministry of defense and the american institute for the study of war and already reports about the battles for the willow, it is more eastern than the robot where are the armed forces moving after the liberation of this settlement, what about the logistics and supply of the russian forces in this direction, we will talk further on this broadcast , the officials in the usa have come to terms with the fact that the landslide this year will not be able to reach the sea of ​​azov and cut russia's land corridor to crimea

. the washington post writes about this , citing sources in the american government. the pentagon advises the ukrainian command to set priorities as the defense force of ukraine. officials of the usa should launch their offensive and what forecasts for the war this year and next are given to the usa. zelensky announced three necessary conditions under which elections are possible even during the war, western partners insist that parliamentary elections should be held in ukraine next year, how are the authorities preparing for this and is being prepared and how should the legislation be changed? and is it really possible to hold elections during the war? we are talking about this with representatives of the authorities and lawyers on this broadcast . that you must subscribe to the radio liberty channel in order not to miss important videos and live broadcasts on

this channel, the armed forces of ukraine are making progress in the direction southeast of the robot leg and north of the small tokmachka of the zaporizhzhia region and are securing themselves at the achieved boundaries, she informed about this in her telegram the deputy minister of defense of ukraine, hanna malyar , the day before, she officially confirmed the release of the settlement, but it was not known about this. last week, when there were reports that the ukrainian military evacuated several local residents who were under occupation all the time and since june actually lived on the line of hostilities, according to her, in the zaporizhzhia region, russian forces are on the defensive and are constantly shelling the positions of the defense forces of ukraine and civilian infrastructure about the advancement of the forces of the armed forces of ukraine to the south from the working area to the villages novoprokopivka is charming and small tokmachka was also informed by the spokesman of the united press center of the force defense of the tauri region

, oleksandr, and the stories of the soldiers about the release of the worker were published on the facebook page the 47th brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, which actually took part in the attack on this village, i suggest you watch a fragment of this video, the main commander, the population center, zaporizhzhia region, from the occupier, as many as 47 separate mechanized and adjacent units , a blue flag, a building in every ukrainian city, glory to ukraine, glory to heroes , this the task for us looked like something special. we weren't too worried. we prepared a lot and everyone worked to the maximum , maximum concentration, maximum attention , maximum adrenaline, and it was really special day with night lights glass reconnaissance cool preparation we listened to see if there were any drones we listened very carefully to where the arta was working we waited for the moment at the right moment we burst into this position

at first we conducted a night operation we approached imperceptibly imperceptibly no for active for katsaps who were not an expert went into the building with they are clean, but due to the fact that it was dark enough and with night vision, they do not allow us to monitor the entire building with quality. mined, so they did not risk the lives of healthy personnel, that is why we secured it on the first floor at the front entrance, the american institute for the study of war reports that the ukrainian military has probably already advanced near the village of verbove , 12 km east of robovo, this is indicated by thermal anomalies, according to researchers from nasa sensors and messages in russian telegram channels that write about the progress of the war

, meanwhile, the ministry of defense of russia has still not confirmed the loss of the robot well, just before the broadcast success in recruiting was confirmed, and the general staff of ukraine in the united states already agreed with the thesis that by the beginning of winter the situation at the front in ukraine will not radically change, in particular, the armed forces of ukraine will not be able to reach the sea of ​​azov and cut the land corridor of russia to crimea before the onset of cold weather, as they had hoped the american newspaper washington post writes about it with reference to sources in the american government, us officials still believe that the armed forces can significantly weaken the position of russia this year or they will pass the fortified first and second lines of defense of the russian army, then the ukrainian military unit will be able to quickly move east and west, confusing the russian troops, but by the end of this year, ukraine

will probably not strike a decisive blow, this means the continuation of the war in the 24th year and longer, so the media in the pentagon calls on the ukrainian command to set priorities first ukraine paid attention to three offensive directions instead of concentrating on one strike in the south through zaporizhzhya region to the sea of ​​azov, however, now the washington post writes that ukraine reacted by transferring some units from podbakhmut and other areas in the east to the southern front , according to one of the us estimates, this is what the publication says : at the beginning of a full-scale invasion , the ukrainian army has already used about two million shells of 150 ml military caliber , which has almost exhausted the reserves of western aid , so the biden administration is considering other options, for example, the provision of cluster munitions for rocket launchers, which can

strike deeper into the russian rear than artillery versions of e bikies the united states began supplying last month ukraine continues to advocate for long-range attack missiles, but the pentagon intervenes because it fears that the united states does not have enough attacks to supply ukraine without undermining its own readiness for any possible conflict with china this war is far from over, this is how the journalists of the washington post of education summarize the text of the broadcast svoboda early joins the deputy director of the center for research on army conversion and disarmament on international affairs mykhailo myself and mr. mykhailo. greetings. good morning. if you analyze the events at the front now, the advance of the armed forces of ukraine in the south , you agree with the thesis of the washington post that the u.s. army will not go to the sea of ​​azov until the cold weather sets in, and will only break through the first two

lines of defense of the russian forces. well we have a very similar one. it seems to me that it is a wrong tradition to start the morning by analyzing the headlines of the western press, which then we, er, these headlines begin to criticize. i don't understand why to mock the western press like this. just if we look at the headlines of the same washington post a year ago they also wrote that the ukrainian army would not be able to liberate kherson by the end of the 22nd year and that the ukrainian offensive in the kherson region had failed, in general . the army is doing as it should and i am sure that it cannot be that someone tells the ukrainian commanders how to set priorities. it seems that they did not study in military schools and academies and some american sergeant came

and told the general to the hostage general how finally, it is necessary to privatize the effort on the front. i think that what is said that our troops have reduced their forces in the bakhmut direction is not true , because literally today there is information that the ukrainian army is advancing south of bakhmut - this means that the ukrainian army is not reducing i believe this is absolutely true because you cannot focus on one direction, because the enemy will also focus on one direction and all these efforts will simply be neutralized in that, and it concludes operational military art is to shake the enemy's defenses, play chess and not checkers like an athlete and create conditions when he does not understand where the main blow will be and just stretch his reserves. the same is the same as what is happening now, that is, the enemy reserves without understanding where everything is

the main blow will still be delivered. maybe it will be the main blow delivered under the bahmut and he will have to urgently drag his troops from the south, this is and will be the success of the ukrainian strategic defense operation that is, there is an intrigue for the enemy and where to expect a strike from the zess, not only some intrigue remains complete, that is, the essence of hostilities in general is to mislead the enemy about our intentions , their intelligence must figure this out and report to the command, like the ukrainian command , for example will operate in our country. the same thing is happening, that is, it is very important for the ukrainian command to know how the enemy will act, so that is precisely what this game consists of, this

game, if you can express it that way, which is very bloody and very tragic and tense, but you can't concentrate. i'm just telling you, you can't concentrate on one direction, as the washington post writes, this is written by a person who does not understand what military affairs are, and i think that he has never served in the military . you see, the washington post refers on not named on their sources, uh, there are american officials in the united states, and america is one of the largest strategic partners of ukraine and in the supply and financial assistance of supplies, as we can see, and here is such a question , that is why we turn to this, it is not someone there wrote somewhere a respectable publication, but here is a moment because the washington post is talking about that talking with these sources of its own and about the fact that there was an expectation of the very breakthrough to the sea of ​​azov, that is, in fact, the direction of movement of the armed forces of ukraine and a certain logic of military operations in general, she is so clear and

known and what is waiting and in general how can this happen when there before the beginning of winter at what point a-a well there you can say whether or not the offensive is stopped, this is how it happens, hostilities stop so they are active and then we have to wait for the next one season, i.e. the spring of the 24th, there will already be another offensive of the armed forces of ukraine against the russian forces, well, first of all, again, the washington post can write whatever it wants. for example, i do not agree that we do not have the opportunity to reach of the sea of ​​azov or move to crimea, for example, i don’t think that this is a fait accompli and we’ll see what will happen, for example, during september , right now when we talk about the advancement of the armed forces of ukraine, we call the population

points the army breaks through breaks through stretches the main line of defense behind this line of defense, after all, there are smaller defensive structures, the prepared terrain is not that powerful how is it in the main line of defense, and if the ukrainian army a-a in the next e-e month reaches tokmak, for example, an operational space is opened there for carrying out other movements, including to the sea of ​​azov, including in order to completely cut off the e-e communication from the crimea to mainland ukraine and e-e in this way . in this way, to create the conditions for the e-e those russian troops located on the left bank of the kherson region actually found themselves in a situation where they have nowhere to go. they will not be able to go to crimea . they will not be able to go to russia because they will simply be cut off by ukrainian

troops in the same stream, i hope melitopol as well. the people of melitopol are the main logistical and transport hub in general. if we talk about this theater of war in general, then i think that it is too early to talk about any results of the summer company, especially the autumn company. and regarding when the troops will to stop. i think that in fact there may be a certain pause caused. for example, if there will be a very powerful rainy season , just as it was, for example, this spring, but it may be a dry autumn, and then there will be no need to take such big pauses, immediately move on to the winter campaign when the soil freezes if they are dry, in principle, nothing will change and the ukrainian troops will continue to advance, so there is no such sharp uh or specific date when the ukrainian troops

will have to stop their offensive and then uh the russians can go on the offensive if the ukrainian troops stop , so i think that a dynamic development of the situation will continue even during the winter , and it is possible that the dynamics may increase even during the winter season. the situation is different, i.e. if the ukrainian troops manage to cut the single theater of criminal actions that stretches from the kharkiv region to the crimea into two such theaters, crimean and donbas, and in the spring what will be obtained, for example, f16 then i think that the situation of the russians in general will reach the finish line. and if the weather conditions will not allow the theater of military operations to unfold, then during this pause, because of the rains, because of the frosts, can the russian army and the ukrainian somehow prepare , the russian army fortify itself, for the example

of the ukrainian in the same way, to sneak up somehow, that is, what is happening in general, or, well, is there as much lull in preparation as possible, the frosts, on the contrary , allow the troops to move because the ground freezes and then the troops move and the combat actions , uh, go on with no less intensity than now for example, that is, the artillery operates, the infantry operates, aviation, and everything else, that is why during the winter season, if it is a real real winter and not and uh, the weather is positive, when unfavorable conditions can really be created, especially for the advancing troops. a complex of information, the russians are increasing their combat capability, for example, i think that they will still try to carry out mobilization starting from september, because they are now categorically and critically lacking

in reserves, especially the infantry and their equipment there have been problems for a long time, but they have a problem with the infantry, that is, now they have a situation where they are moving their reserves, when the ukrainian army is moving in several directions, now, in offensive actions, and the russians, the russians do not have enough reserves to block for example, the possibility of an offensive in the berdyan direction , in the melitopol direction and in the bakhmut direction, and at the same time also trying to advance something there in the kupyan direction, and let's not forget her, avdiyivka maryinka, and so on, that is, with the russians there is absolutely not enough reserves, they will try to mobilize in order to have an additional few hundred new er-er, let's call them military personnel , although of course there will be no training there, it will be just meat that will have to be planted in trenches so that some directions are simply er-

to close at least nominally, but there is information that the usa wants to provide ukraine with cluster munitions of a better modification than they already provided last month. equivalent to atakamsk, which ukraine is very much asking for, no, this is not a replacement for attacks. of course, attacks are e missiles 300 km, that is, we will need them, uh, when we talk about decoupling and deoccupation of crimea, that is, for uh, i said that it is very important for us to cut off a single theater of military operations on two such theaters are very different, this is the donbas theater with its own characteristics and the crimean theater with its own characteristics, that is, the operation with the annexation of crimea will require, ah, it will critically require modern aviation that will be able to establish dominance in the air, this is very

it is important if we are talking about the black sea about the rather deep crimean theater. and of course, it is very important here for the destruction of the coastal infrastructure of the black sea fleet. missiles. we have the storom for a long time. we still have scalp missiles. maybe we will have taurus missiles from germany and attacks . they also added to this arsenal. that is, these are 300 km missiles. they are very important to us if we say so. about crimea, well, there are also places in the donbass where it would be important to use long-range missiles. but if we are talking about cluster munitions, then these are, after all , munitions of tactical tactical depth, just what is needed to break through the defensive lines of the enemy, that is, now we have cluster munitions artillery ammunition for the creation of artillery, and they can

give us e-e cassette tapes for ms, that is, for high-mars and low-range missiles with a range of 40-50 km, which will allow you to hit enemy positions with high precision at this depth . this is further than barrel artillery and it will create conditions for more effective creation of conditions for the advance of our troops just in case of the breakthrough of the enemy's defense lines in the south , we really need them right now, i thank you . understanding so that you don't know how to live according to the situation only the headlines read analyze also thank you deputy director of the center for the study of the army of convalescence and disarmament for international affairs mykhailo samus was a guest freedom of the morning women's summer field uniform for

a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine has been officially placed on the provision, before that all women were issued only a set of men 's cut. the ministry of defense of ukraine has already approved a sample etalon of this form and soon the feeling of the first parties will begin on the development of women's uniform. the department has been working for the last year together with volunteers who, since the beginning of the full-scale war, have closed the needs of women at the front , let's see the details in the story of the correspondent of the radio svoboda present time project, julia zhukova, vira and anastasia women's military uniforms are tried on in the volunteer showroom, there is everything for the comfort of women at the front, the uniform is sewn taking into account a woman's figure, not like a man's, it's just sticks and that's all. and considering the women's uniforms here, it's a high fit , first of all, it's very there is a big difference because, in principle, the men's uniform ends somewhere here, it rubs you, it burps you

, it just doesn't fit on the hips. with pins and a belt, i haven't seen a single woman who would pretend to be a man's uniform, put on a coat or something else, we all breathe hard in them, or you have such wings on your back, it's so healthy because, well, it 's calculated on the shoulders, or you just don't have it it is fastened in the front and then you have nothing to breathe, another painful question about underwear in the army, women are also issued so far only men's. again, when we were dressed by the military commissariat, i was asked to remove men's underpants, and i ask. and why are underpants supposed to be issued ? i say yes, man. what do i do with them? to do well, they give, they take. well, okay, i took it, gave it to the boys, and they still give me men's underwear all the time. well, it's a physiological issue of menstruation. excuse me, how should i glue something to men's boxers or how should i get out of this situation, these are also completely natural things that are not considered in unfortunately, but we are going to this, and it is wonderful

. well, let's put a bra on the man, yes, instead of a shirt, instead of a t-shirt, wear a bra . it will be comfortable for you . about five thousand sets of women's military uniforms and common underwear, uniform samples were changed several times, the wishes of women were taken into account after testing in field professions. the founder of the volunteer organization, iryna nekurak , during the development of women's field uniforms, constantly consulted with the ministry of defense. as a result, this sample became a working group was created as the basis for the implementation of women's uniform at the state level, and we worked together and created

a women's military uniform from scratch, eh, we didn't want do not engage in any amateur activities, so we took into account all their recommendations, wishes and comments . of course , there were pockets. it is very convenient for combat vehicles, i.e. it is stretchy with low movements at all, one of the advantages of the uniform can be worn even during pregnancy, the upper part of the pants is elastic and very good stretches to the required size, soon after all the tender procedures are completed, the sewing of 50,000 women's sets will begin, says deputy minister of defense hanna malyar, our uniform is very modern

, taking into account all needs and features. they chose the best one that can, well, even the woman herself can regulate certain parameters already there, indicators for her convenience, about 42,000 are currently serving in the armed forces five and a half thousand of them women are on the front lines, and since 2015 the number of women in the ukrainian army has doubled, they have gained access to many combat and officer positions, and today paramedics, gunners , snipers, scouts perform various tasks at the level of men, it is worth noting that far not all countries, including a member country of gnato, have a female uniform, and even more so a female field uniform, so we can say here that ukraine is one of the first to introduce a uniform of this quality and which is already

is currently testing this uniform directly in the combat zone, while the ministry of defense is just preparing to sew a summer field uniform in the sewing shop of the women's veteran movement, meanwhile, a serviceman is trying on one arrow of the winter and demi-season version, it was designed and sewn by volunteers , because the cold weather will soon be here here there is a tightening and it is possible, well, on the head, here they tighten if necessary, your load was more in winter or rarely, but there is no difference, yes, there is a difference all the time, er, in the summer, you need a summer in winter, a comfortable winter uniform is not the only need of women at the front, more important is ammunition, helmets, plate carriers, body armor, which also often do not correspond to the features of the female figure , but the ministry of defense assures that this issue is also in the process of being worked out yulia zhukova serhiy dykun vasyl martyshchenko specially for radio

svoboda more interesting materials you can find on the pages of radio svoboda in youtube radio svoboda radio svoboda ukraine - these are two of our channels also subscribe to radio svoboda in various social networks we are everywhere well next, let's talk about the elections. president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi said that in order for the elections to be held in the 24th year during the war, three conditions must be met: change the legislation, get additional funding from western partners and provide observers almost in the trenches, so that the elections are considered legitimate. he said this in an interview. to the journalists of the 1+1 tv channel, nataliya moseichuk, noting that it is not easy to ensure everyone's right to self-expression in the conditions of war , and he will not give 5 billion to hold elections on credit, because i am not a person who is engaged in paving and will not be able to simply take 5 billion from the budget. it seems to me that this is the amount needed to hold

elections in normal time, and in the military i do not know what these amounts are, so i told him if the united states of america together with europe will give us financial support, i'm sorry i do not ask for anything to hold elections on credit, i will not take money from weapons and give them to the elections, and i will not give them to the elections. lindsay graham called on the allies to provide ukraine with all the necessary financial and technical assistance to hold elections in 2024. he wrote about this in his own twitter. i will remind you that a few days ago, this same senator , while in kyiv, said that elections should be held in ukraine next year, saying that this is exactly what happened . his message to the ukrainian president i want free and fair elections to be held in this country even during the attack on it, the american people should know that

ukraine has changed in the past it was very corrupt country, but we keep an eye on every dollar and every weapon. we continue to contribute and i am satisfied that the ukrainians do not profit from the american people. they help the american people and i believe that in ukraine it is time to take the next step in the establishment of democracy, namely to hold elections in 2024, and in a radio broadcast on svoboda on the occasion of ukraine's independence day, the secretary of the national security and defense council, oleksiy danilov, said that holding elections in ukraine in 2024 is possible only if hostilities will end, it is possible when the hostilities will end. because during the war, holding elections is quite a difficult thing, because once again, this is about justice , the state must ensure that all citizens who have the right to vote vote, but is it practically and legally possible to hold
