[000:00:00;00] medium threats that russia may seize kupinsk, i would not, there are risks, of course, they cannot be leveled, they cannot be easily weighed, but our forces today are coherently holding the line of defense, and in the event of a change in the nature of the introduction of combat troops actions, and which will be affected by weather conditions and the decision of our command to strengthen the eastern group, i think that the enemy will not have much chance there, thank you very much, mr. alexander, for such a detailed answer. for detailed analysis, oleksandr musienko, head of the center for military and legal studies, guest of our broadcast, we talked about the situation at the front in ukraine, and in general about how the west cooperates with ukraine in the context of defense and the actual confrontation with the russian federation today? the biggest offensive of the entire war, this is how the head of the avdiyiv military administration vitaly barabash describes the situation around avdiyivka, but he assures that the defense forces of ukraine repelled all attacks by the russian forces and

managed to gain all their positions, but the troops of the russian federation do not stop shelling of both the city and its surroundings, as well as the positions of the armed forces of ukraine. the largest coke-chemical plant in europe, which is located in avdiivka, is now smoking, but not because of the work of the workshops, but because of regular russian airstrikes and artillery fire, say journalists who visited avdiivka. how the people who stay there live, see in the story from our colleagues, a report by oleksiy prodayvoda. city-forming enterprise of avdiivka. the largest coke chemical plant in europe stopped a long time ago and now smokes not because of the work of workshops, but because of regular ones russian airstrikes and artillery shelling. last week, the company was hit by another attack from the air, the local authorities reported, showing a video of rocket explosions. from the 16th year to the 22nd, not a single flight came to the plant, and now the plant is being stupidly destroyed, and avdiivka without

a plant, it will simply not become her. shockingly. vitaly, a soldier of the special purpose police company, meets us in avdiyiv. he says the city is changing every day because of the russian attacks. what was just yesterday a burnt-out house without windows, today is already a ruin which it is not even always possible to get the victim. a rocket flew in and a woman collapsed in the basement, so she had a chance to survive, even the basement didn't save a few of them? well, yes, it had already collapsed completely, and here they couldn't get it, there was no way to get it. to save, vitaly has been serving in avdiivka since 2016, before the full -scale invasion, he maintained public order here, now he is involved in the evacuation of residents injured as a result of shelling, he says that although the city was near the front long before the full-scale invasion of russia, it is peaceful life was here. every evening, people with children, without children, young couples walked, walked, every 10-15 meters

there was lighting, but the city just lived, lived and developed, and now it, well, as you can see, is overgrown, everything is busy falls, the overgrowth between the houses on the once well-kept, crowded streets, this is a creepy exotic, but soon all this will look even scarier - says vitaliy, when the leaves fall and only gloomy ruins remain. this year i felt what ambrosia is on me, so yes, everything is left here so that like in the forest, well, maybe, maybe, if it will be like pripyat, then maybe there will be tourist tours in pripyat, like in pripyat, as well as in avdiivkom, if it is not rebuilt, then maybe there will be, i don't know, it's sad, but unlike pripyat in the chernobyl exclusion zone, where no people live , more than 1,500 residents remain in avdiivka, among them tamara and mykola, who lived in the same entrance hall all their lives and became very close under

of the region, they fled to russia, and during the occupation they cooperated with russian troops. what is known about them, i will tell later. nato says that ukrainian strikes on russia's black sea fleet seriously limited its capabilities in september. about the fact that the fleet can still perform the main wartime tasks , what are these tasks and what are the threats to ukraine? don't forget to like this video and subscribe to radio liberty's youtube channel. the security service of ukraine and the prosecutor's office have identified the persons who allegedly aimed the russian iskander missile at the village of groza in the kharkiv region. according to the law enforcement officers, these are two brothers, volodymyr and dmytro, mamony. they were residents. village the sbu says that it was still during the occupation kharkiv oblast, these men took the pro-russian side and for that received positions in the ranks of the occupation administration of internal affairs. and on the eve of the ukrainian armed forces liberating this territory of kharkiv oblast, the brothers and

their families moved to russia, but remotely, the sbu says, they began to form a network of informants in ukraine. the information was allegedly collected under the guise of friendly conversations and correspondence in messengers. when they received information about the reburial of a military man in the village... but one of the brothers allegedly handed it over to the russians military according to the investigation, from the beginning of october this year, both involved parties began to collect information about the planned reburial of the fallen ukrainian defender in the village of groza. at the same time, they understood that as a result of an enemy attack , civilians, their acquaintances from the village of groza, including those who provided them with information, would surely die. having learned the exact address and spent time. peace settlement, volodymyr mamon gave this data to the russian occupiers. the prosecutor's office of the kharkiv region issued a notice of suspicion to the men treason committed under martial law, as well as one of the brothers, volodymyr mamon, are additionally charged with

aiding and abetting violations of the laws and customs of war, combined with intentional murder and committed by a group of persons according to a prior conspiracy, the kharkiv prosecutor's office says. i will remind you that exactly a week ago, russian troops hit a cafe in the village of groza, in the kharkiv region, with iskanders, where a memorial dinner was held after the reburial of a ukrainian soldier. this morning it became known that the number of victims of a thunderstorm has increased to you are 56 as the head of the kharkiv regional military administration oleg synigubov reported, a 53-year-old woman died in intensive care yesterday evening, three more people are considered missing, identification of body fragments is ongoing. it is interesting that investigative journalists of the slidstvo.info project in august 22 published an article about a man named volodymyr mamon, who looks identical to the man whom the sbu suspects of firing on the village of groza. in the material of the investigative info it is said that a year and a half before the full-scale invasion, a man named volodymyr mamon started working for the police. already during the occupation of kharkiv oblast, he received

a car from the occupiers. the field is marked with the letters z. he allegedly brought supplies to the russian military at checkpoints, and also handed over the participants of the anti-terrorist operation to the occupiers, after which they were taken away for inspection. slidstva.info journalists received this information from the text of the suspicion of the kharkiv prosecutor's office from july 2022, which mamon was informed about in absentia. journalists write that a man named volodymyr mamon allegedly showed there the best places to place artillery and other equipment on the territory of the community. i note that according to slidstvainfo , which refers to the text of last year's suspicion of the prosecutor's office, volodymyr mamon was born and lived in the village of chkalovskoe in the kharkiv region, but from the documents issued to the men by the occupation authorities, this is a russian-style certificate of the ministry of internal affairs, which was published by the sbu after the investigation of the tragedy in georgia, it follows that volodymyr mamon was born in the village of shevchenkove in the kharkiv region, and his brother dmytro was born in the same village of groza. i will also remind you that according to the security service of ukraine, before the de-occupation of kharkiv oblast, both

suspects fled to russia. anastasia stanko, editor-in-chief of slidstvainfo, joins our broadcast. good morning, anastasia. good morning. thank you for taking the time to join. in august of last year, your colleagues wrote an article about volodymyr mamon, who was suspected in absentia because of his cooperation with the occupiers. the day before, the sbu showed men who could be gunners in the village of groza. it is one and the same. in your opinion, what are the facts? is it pointed out? well, first of all, the photo, place of birth, date of birth, and also our colleagues from the schemes after us last year found out information about his brother dmytro, that is, they found, after the deoccupation of the region, the kharkiv region, the documents of police traitors , and among these police traitors, in the kharkiv region, among these police officers

were volodymyr and dmytro, about dmytro then they only said that, because this younger brother of volodymyr, who is also now considered by the security service to be a gunner of the russian rockets to the village of groza, he also worked in the police before the full-scale invasion of the police of kharkiv region, but they have another brother, his name is oleksandr, and he also worked in the police, and we also found out that there is an absentee suspicion about him, he also went over to the side of the russian occupiers, but already in the city of kupyansk, and there he worked in the so-called, well, people's militia, kupyansk and also helped the russian occupiers in the exercise of power in this city during the occupation, anastasia, tell me, please, what is yours colleagues managed to find out when you spoke with relatives, colleagues, fellow villagers, friends. what could be his motives, but what

did those with whom you spoke talk about? in fact, our journalists were also now in the storm, and uh, several fellow villagers, several residents of the storm said then that they believed that it was caused by someone from the local people, someone who fled to russia with the russians when they fled during the de-occupation , the counteroffensive of the ukrainian army, and they told us quite clearly, we have several such comments that here are the policemen, and this they cited, and we did not compare these facts at that moment, at that moment, that it is possible that these are the same brothers about whom we already wrote last year, and when the sbu made this information public, then in our country, if all the pastors agreed that people, well, when people spoke only after the shelling, so... at the scene of this tragedy, we think that it was them, but

they did not name their names at the time, and that those who were from the sbu were, as it were, the same people, and we also managed to communicate last year and now we called the ex again to the wife of volodymyr mamon, then she told us that year that she does not believe and does not fully believe him and that it is possible for him, then she said, aklivitali, that is, they discussed that he... no, that she does not believe that he cooperates with the russian occupiers, or that it is difficult for her to believe it, and as a son, she then called her a seven-year-old son with mammon, and she told you that how to explain to her son that the father is a traitor, now she wants to completely forget and erase this person from life and that the son did not know at all about who, who was, who is his own father. anastasia, it is clear that my next question is rather, well, it is, you know, rhetorical, if you can find an answer to it, it would be good if you could explain to us, as

you think, whether this man could even have been recruited earlier on the russian side, taking into account the fact that he went to work there for some period before the war. war , he went to work in law enforcement agencies, well, we don't have this information, here we can only guess, i will say this, that all these stories, which are definitely, if only terrible, what bothers me most, as a ukrainian citizen, a ukrainian journalist , is the fact that three of my own brothers went to work for the kharkiv police, not so long before the war, and three of them eventually... went over to the side of the occupiers. and this probably speaks more to the fact that no, they are not very carefully recruiting such a very important body as the police, and well, it 's very sad to say the least, and i hope that i don't

know, we, we asked the police, but now we do not have an answer from the kharkiv region, how these people got there, what kind of inspection they are about passed what, why did they, well, find themselves in the service, all three, all three went over to the side of the occupiers, but on the other hand, this is quite, unfortunately, a typical situation when, in the occupation, the policemen go over to the side of the occupation authorities, and our colleagues from ngl , our money, lviv media, recently published a large article about the fact that local police chiefs are in the occupation of all four oblasts, where, where are occupied... parts of the oblasts and also crimea, by 80%, or even more, maybe, maybe 87, if i, if i am not mistaken, went over to the side of the occupiers, i.e. that these are local people, these are ukrainians, they manage police stations, in the occupation, during

the occupation, and well if, unfortunately, this is such a typical story, quite typical, but here we have, you understand, here we have not only... leadership , we still have a crime committed and a terrible crime committed, well, as we understand it deliberately, and this is not the first crime they have committed, because in the investigation we did last year, it is clear that if mammon had voluntarily transferred, he voluntarily searched there, found the soldiers, abducted people, and also in a thunderstorm, one of men told us that he was a prisoner of the occupiers. during the occupation and we asked if you knew who handed you in, who, who you, who said that you should be taken and where are you, he said, i grew up with them, so i know these people, and so from that conversation it was clear that he was also pointing to them. thank you, thank you anastasia for finding the opportunity to join, anastasia stanko, editor

-in-chief of sledstva.info, the material about those who are currently suspected by the sbu of carrying out an attack on the village of groza, our colleagues from the investigation. info published last year and obviously, these could be the same men who were mentioned in that material and in the suspicion of the sbu. as a result of the ukrainian strikes, the capabilities of the russian black sea fleet are severely limited, and the fleet is probably not able to continue extensive regional patrols and block ukrainian ports, as before, but the fleet is still capable of performing the main wartime tasks of striking with cruise missiles and patrolling. area, a high-ranking nato official said during the meeting defense ministers of the alliance countries, reports european truth, but the publication does not name the official who made the announcement. according to this senior official, russia's black sea fleet suffered a series of serious attacks in september, including strikes on its headquarters, and this whole situation is likely to force russia

to take a reactive stance, while at the same time demonstrating that the ukrainian military can undermine a symbolic and strategic one. action of the kremlin's forces in occupied sevastopol. earlier , british intelligence stated that after series of successful ukrainian strikes, the russian black sea fleet will obviously not be able to have the same control over the black sea as before. at the same time, the russian forces have changed the tactics of using their fleet in the war against ukraine, say the naval forces of the armed forces of ukraine. now, russia uses only caliber-type missile carriers in battle order to launch strikes against ukraine. territory, and other enemy ships actually do not take part in hostilities, said the spokesman of the naval forces of the armed forces of ukraine, dmytro plettenchuk, however, it is still too early to talk about changing the balance of power in favor. ukrainian troops in the regions of occupied crimea, because russia has more than 30 warships, not counting boats and

auxiliary fleet. meanwhile, in occupied sevastopol, a large patrol ship of the russian black sea fleet, pavel derzhavin, could have been blown up, this was reported by local telegram channels, in particular crimean vetir. subscribers of the channel informed the administrators that they heard a loud explosion at 10 o'clock in the morning. monitoring group after that, a ship discovered the crimean wind in the sea near sevastopol already in the afternoon. and the boat, it could be pavel derzhavyn, the administrators write. the head of the press center of the defense forces of southern ukraine, nataliya humenyuk, told journalists that the armed forces of ukraine are clarifying whether this is true, but she says that everything can be, the russian ministry of defense does not have any information on this matter. i remind you that in the chat under the broadcast you have the opportunity to ask your questions to our speakers, in addition, write us where you are from look, this is important for us to understand the geography of the audience, freedom of the mornings, and the traditional request. changes in order for you to always receive from us prompt, timely, important, verified information, i suggest that you become friends

with us on - youtube, for that, and you subscribe to our youtube channel, the youtube channel of radio liberty, in addition, in we have other platforms, which i also invite you to subscribe to, and in these seconds dmytro plettenchuk joins our broadcast, he is the spokesman of the naval forces of the armed forces of ukraine, captain of the third rank, dmitry, i congratulate you, i congratulate the studio, i congratulate the audience, unfortunately, i do not see you. good to hear, at least you will be able to answer the questions that are of interest to us, that is, actually from the information that was retold by me above, to what extent the fleet of the russian federation is currently combat-capable, what wartime functions it can perform, because nato officials say that the european truth conveys that perhaps not all the capabilities of the fleet are available now, but the conditions and the tasks that it has to perform in the conditions of real wartime, it is it can do so, in simple terms, how combat-ready is the fleet of the russian federation today?

well, it is unlikely to come out in plain language, we can only note that it is early to write off the black sea fleet, they still have combat capabilities, and they are quite large, they are more than 30 combat units, but as you can see, first of all, they are limited in the water area, and we see the dispersion of the ship's personnel on other bases, that is, first of all, this is the new russian feodosia, that is, despite the fact that sevastopol is the main naval base, they are now entering it in the wrong way often, this is despite the fact that they load the caliber, they are only in sevastopol, nowhere else, and secondly , as you can see, they are limited in the use of their ships, in fact , only those units that are carriers of the calibre-based missiles take part in hostilities , which have a long range, and the rest of the ships, which are not ships, they are not actually used in combat formations, so they are involved precisely in the performance of tasks for the protection and

defense of the water area, base points, but this is still not participation in real fighting actions, therefore, in principle, i can partially agree with those theses regarding the limitation of the functionality of the black sea fleet, however , one should not forget that this is a fairly powerful group and our enemy, quite... serious in this case, separate, it should be noted the work of the naval security of the fsb, the so-called russian federation, who perform other tasks, and their main task now is the protection of the so-called crimean bridge, where they have concentrated a lot of their resources, primarily ships and boats, and in more or less normal weather - this about 10 units. dmitry, but about who has the advantage in the black sea today, that is, we can talk. about the fact that the fleet of the russian federation has a complete advantage in the black sea, or is the naval forces of ukraine gradually getting over this initiative,

they had a complete advantage in the black sea, for the first time we saw them again on the cliff from the city of odessa, as it was at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, and this has been impossible for more than a year, in principle, and secondly, probably our corridor would not work by now, it is working, and let's hope that it will work in the future to a greater extent, therefore... they are, due to their powerlessness, without, taking into account the current state of the sea, forced to use a single tactic of shelling the port infrastructure, that is , they are not capable of more than that at the moment, and they are, as you you see, they do it periodically, dmitry, yesterday many telegram channels , in particular the crimean veter, with reference to the example of the spokesman of the operational headquarters of odesa ova , wrote that the great guard corps of the russian federation, pavlo derzhavin, could have been blown up by a russian mine somewhere in the district temporarily

occupied sevastopol. to what extent is this true, what is known about this ship at all, because from the information that is currently publicly available with a similar name, the ship was actually on the balance sheet, as i understand it, of the navy of the armed forces of ukraine, here is what is known in this context ? well, as far as i remember, the naval forces did not have such a ship, most likely, you are now talking about the maritime security, maybe, well, maybe, maybe, maybe, another structure related to this case, we can officially to confirm that the ship was damaged without... in what way, and again, this can be seen as another hint that it is time for the russian occupiers to leave our sevastopol, that is, it is already a confirmed fact that yesterday this ship was damaged, but you cannot say for sure at the moment whether this information needs to be verified, whether it was a russian mine, or whether it was the result of, i don’t know, a hit, for example, or some kind of

sabotage, again, you are the first, who am i under...' officially today what he got damage, i can't give you any information about the circumstances of this incident, let's call it that, but the fact is, thank you for confirming, and the question is, following that, in relation to sea mines, how much of the black sea itself is mined today, well, i don't know how to say it correctly, because if we evaluate the territory of the dry land itself, we can measure in some ways, but if we talk about the black sea in particular, how mined it is, there is some division into safe, dangerous, there is no such thing, danger is everywhere, that is in this context, what is known as of now, in order to have complete, objective , information on this matter, it is necessary to conduct a monitoring operation, a mission to find out, for sure, exactly what number of mines are currently

located, that is, you understand, of course there is reconnaissance, there is some information as a result of monitoring, there are observations, nevertheless, we will have a complete picture when we can finally conduct a full-fledged, full-scale operation to clear the waters of the black sea, which, of course, will begin with reconnaissance, this water area, because as we we see, russians they mined it, they mined it in a different way, combined, and from time to time they did it quite insidiously, simply by throwing out drifting mines downstream of the current that goes to our southern coast odesa and mykolayiv region , and once again i want to take this opportunity to emphasize that the only purpose of this mining is civilian shipping and they understand it perfectly, we literally have 30 seconds left, but i would still like to clarify, going back to this ship, which belongs to, which was actually there on the balance of the brykhov guard of ukraine, that is, it was exposed by russian forces, or is it

the other ship is theirs, if you can comment on it, they have the same name, i remember that before the war, there was such an interesting moment, i can only note that it is not a ukrainian ship, it is for sure, it is clear, thank you very much, sir dmytro, for finding the opportunity to turn on, dmytro plytenchuk, spokesman for the naval forces, armed forces of ukraine, captain of the third rank, guest of our broadcast, we talked about the situation in the black sea, and nato officials say that the actions of the black sea fleet of the russian federation are currently limited capabilities, but this fleet is still capable of striking on the territory of ukraine. still can i remind you that if you watch us on the youtube channel of radio svoboda on youtube, be sure to subscribe in order to receive exclusive information about otaku in particular, unless mr. dmytro said on our air, confirming that another russian ship has suffered injuries the day before, the nature of these injuries is still unknown, but the fact remains, the armed forces of ukraine, in particular the naval forces, confirm this. thank you to those of you who were with us, take care and

we will meet you on the air tomorrow. it's 10 o'clock on the clock, it's time to find out what is happening in ukraine and the world at this time, khrystyna parubiy is working in the studio. not a hollywood movie, but real life. in kyiv , an unknown person tried to seize. business center. the incident happened in the morning in the solomyan district of the capital. the armed man threatened the guards and forced them to leave the building. after that, he fired several shots and tried to set up a barricade near the front door to prevent the policemen from entering. in as a result of the negotiations, the attacker was detained
