[000:00:00;00] serious reserves, uh, what i see from the positive for us in the information field, i emphasize once again, not in the context of avdiyivka, in general in the information field, we become aware that the russians are withdrawing some units from the kupyan direction, hence the strategic reserve in they are not there, well, if they are not, let’s put it this way, if they are removed, then they are not enough, and therefore , throwing some units, of course, from their reserves, as well as removing them from the direction, we can analyze it in this way, but nevertheless, the number of personnel composition, a let's say, some analysts say that there are about 50,000 heads, this is quite a lot for organizing the so-called meat assaults, we know that the russians are very good at this, they are very good at doing it, burying their own, as they say, other russians, our artillery here is just god help with

cluster munitions, but nevertheless, we understand that in the avdiiv direction quite serious artillery training is underway on the part of the russians and they are accumulating resources, even regrouping, the artillery does not subside. we know that today, well, relatively speaking, at the time when we were placed there with about 3,000 shells, in general, our western partners, although according to some estimates they should have placed a million there, nevertheless, the russians received about... 350,000 from north korea alone , and this should be taken into account, so i emphasize once again that the logistics of north korea and russia run along the same track and there is one bridge, it should be blown up without transferring sabotage work to the enemy's side, we will be in trouble for a long time, further, further returning again to avdiivka, i i would like to say that, unfortunately, i don't know, and maybe it's good that i

don't know, if it exists. but nevertheless, something i doubt that it is being done, i am talking today about the second, third, fourth, if necessary echelon, the defense of avdiivka, or defensive lines in case the russians still manage to achieve success in those directions of flanking attacks, what they are doing now, well, they can't go head -on, there the lines are serious, on the flanks they are a little weaker, that's why i believe that mine-mining should be done and the second and third echelons of defense should be built. on those areas, we really need it, and very quickly, because this bottleneck, which connects the rear with the defenders of the armored vehicles, this bottleneck is approximately 10 km long there today, well , believe me, with such a number of involved forces and means, 10 km is not enough, because this is something that can be pushed through, and we do not need to panic here, but we need to strengthen the flanks with defensive lines, mr. major, literally

several... a few days ago, information appeared that the ukrainian defense forces are already on the left shore in the kherson region and that is fixed there, so far there is no reliable information, well, i have not read confirmation of information that some movements have begun on the left bank of kherson region, with the development of the situation on the left bank of kherson region, how the situation will change in general on the front, how it will affect and whether it will affect well, let's be honest, the operations on the left bank of the kherson region, they help the counteroffensive actions that are taking place in our south, if we are talking about today, those small bridgeheads that our special forces capture, of course, that is not yet full-scale forcing of the dnipro with the arrival of large mechanized units, with the establishment of logistics and so on, but nevertheless, it is

very discouraging. the russians, according to the data that i have today, the russians have very serious problems there, because they used a very large resource on the so-called surovykin line, and at the same time, the issue of the left bank of the kherson region, they asked , although to their credit, the russians are also thinking about it because the extra units are being rolled over, we know they are now for tokmak fortifications are being built. one more line, tentatively, let’s call it there , well, not surogvikina, but very serious defensive lines, in two echelons, but as for kherson oblast, i emphasize once again, we now have, let’s put it this way, we have to comment on this story discreetly, well, which is already obvious, but let's not interfere with the boys' work, there are prospects, we will see the development of these events, how quickly, let's still look at the possibilities, but also at

the weather, again... i emphasize, without mechanized parts to talk about serious we cannot yet threaten the russian flank from the left bank of the kherson region, but the fact that our guys are getting on their nerves there, plus drones, plus artillery adjustments and plus, god bless you, god save america, hymars, we seriously can strike today on the left bank of the kherson region, precisely with the help of means of artillery damage, well, such is the story. mr. igor, denys shmygalal, the prime minister of ukraine, in an interview with the financial times, said that ammunition, ammunition stocks in the world are running out, because warehouses. very fast are emptying, the entire military-industrial complex of the world, well, it just does not keep up with the pace, the use of ammunition , including on the russian-ukrainian front, now a sufficiently large front may still open in the middle east, everyone is waiting for

a ground operation in the gas sector, and it is clear that it is not known how it will all end, there are two aircraft carrier groups of the united states of america, but what will happen as a result of this ground operation and whether it will already be connected to the war in israel, to the war of hamas against israel, syria, iran, there, maybe , by middlemen, russia, no one knows either, but in the conditions of this shortage, about which denys shmigal says, will it not happen that the ukrainian, ukrainian defense forces will receive less ammunition, and anyway we will have to compensate for this shortage of ammunition in some another way. to buy somewhere, well, from some regular intermediaries there in the world market, because it is clear that there are targeted supplies from the united states of america, from britain, from our other partners, but the weapons are probably on the market,

it’s just that our partners don’t have them, it ends she, because no one was preparing for such a hot phase, which has been the focus of the last year and a half in ukraine, well, let's be honest, we have all heard, so to speak, guaranteeing the supply of a million, because there are supplies of 152 and 105 caliber, we remember it, about 300,000 succeeded, now there are talks about the fact that it is necessary to finish this figure to the end, but i want to emphasize for the viewers of your channel that it was the russians in the first days of the full-scale invasion who threw about 70-80,000 at our positions per day per day, so when we we are talking about a million, well, with the intensity of the use of ammunition by the russians, it would be there for 15 days, we certainly cannot afford such a luxury, we are happy with only one story that our ammunition, the ones we use, i am now talking about nato standard samples

and so on, that they are much more accurate, this is true, the second point, which can help us quite a lot now, is cartridge-type ammunition, there are still very large reserves of them in the world, let's not disappoint each other, as they say, because cluster ammunition there is, because they are, so to speak, conventionally prohibited by various conventions and so on, and the reserves were made, no matter what, and today our western partners give them to us, that is , we will be able to work against the enemy's infantry, as regards means of defeating anti-tank weapons, and so on , then now again in the new aid package they give us the javelin, and let's be honest, we have a very good thigh for anti-tank work. well, let's be honest, i don't understand at all why local communities don't start utility companies in the manufacture of drones, well, hit a tank with artillery, well, you need to put some ammunition while you aim, until

you hit, and if it is on the move, then it is generally a problem, but fpi drones work much more interesting than spending artillery shells for a tank, for example, so we need to end this war. technologically, well, relatively speaking , we can see the first signs of such technologies on the example of the black sea fleet, well, we drove the black sea fleet of the russian federation into already wealthy clouds, as i say, and what, what ships we have, and submarines, submarines, no, we drove it away with drones, so in this context we have to take back our skies, of course, the russians have planes, we can’t counter, be, compete with them yet, so we could in in the air, because they have planes and helicopters , but we have no moral right to lose the drone war, the russians put it on the industrial stream, why don't we put it on

the industrial stream, and this work for volunteers continues, i can't understand prime minister shmyhal reported that 40 billion was allocated for drone work in ukraine, every military man will tell you where the drones are from the state? now i saw from here the figures of the ministry that they have already set up production there and will supply there tens of thousands per month, i want to say, i am reporting by mouth, for today the monthly need of the armed forces: ukraine is no longer measured by tens of thousands of drones, if we take the entire front line, already there is a bill for hundreds of thousands, so we do not finish 10 times, and in this situation, the creation of utility companies for the production of fpv drones, i believe, it should be a priority than the production of cobblestones in the territories of certain rural, township, and urban communities, and these will be both jobs and attracting young people , listen, well, children in schools are collecting drones, well, i think they already have... or

funding, that is it will be possible to do, the purchase of components, the reduction of obstacles for the import of components, that is where shmyhal's government should work, i think so, today there was information that ukraine will receive new missiles with a range of 300 km already in january, as reported by the voice of america, in particular myroslava gongadze, referring to the words of a high-ranking official of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, er, according to the results of the meeting between the military command of ukraine and the military command of the allies, the pace of the supply of weapons to ukraine will not decrease and these missiles with a range of 300 km will also appear in ukraine, i remember just three weeks ago , oleksiy danilov, the secretary of the national security and defense council, spoke about the fact that in general we have such missiles that can fly to a distance there, well, maybe he is talking about one copy or two copies of these

missiles that are not in serial production, he said, but still, ukraine has always been a missile state, that is, we have technologies that can be implemented, and there are specialists, who i hope are still left, who can do it, uh, why do you think, in a year and a half, you have already mentioned drones that cannot, production that cannot be adjusted, why we cannot adjust the production of elementary things that are necessary. the ukrainian army and obviously we have these technologies, and these opportunities exist, and it could be done somewhere in the neighboring states, right at the borders to put these tsikhs there and simply produce these missiles, there are ministries of industry, there are ministries of defense, there are a bunch of officials who, in principle, should do this, let's be frank, the political office... fsb of the russian federation on the territory of the government offices in ukraine did not

consist only in one box. therefore, we see disruptions, disruptions precisely in the context of the fact that our military-industrial complex is brought to its knees. well, it is enough to mention the state audit service with its double interpretation of the normative acts of the cabinet of ministers, and we will remember how kbb luch was brought to his knees, that kb luch, which can manufacture neptunes, and i want to tell you that neptune itself can already fly not only over the sea, but can also be launched at ground targets and fly with a greater range than there 180 or 200 km, we understand that, but unfortunately, the work of the political office of the fsb in ukraine is flourishing, and here the question is already for the sbu, for all the others, well , let’s not talk about it now, about the missile programs that we have, yes we have missile programs, i even remember the reports of representatives of the defense industry, such as husiv, who were recently expelled there, there, we had great reformers there, there was mustafa

naim, who oversaw the defense industry and so on, i remember the issue of the sapsan or borysfen missile program, which can really fly hundreds of kilometers there, there well, up to a thousand there, i don’t know, there, if i’m not mistaken, well, more than 500 , that’s for sure, so what’s the problem , they reported that everything is already 80 or 65% ready, it’s almost there soon, well, them appointed, they stayed and what, but just about that, it turned out to be a guy. that is, they mastered the funds, the question is in this situation, where money, you know, is one story, another story, except for the curtailment of missile programs, well, we had a good vilha missile program, of course, it is not so long-range, but it is also good, it showed itself very well at the beginning of the war , because we successfully used a few units of that alder that were in the warehouses for a russian pendant, it worked quite well , well, we have many good programs, but we have too much... unfortunately, only words speak

about transferring the economy to military rails. i i remember with what pomp, if i'm not mistaken, two years ago, the servants told us, well, after a full-scale invasion, that they started the production of shells, and i said, what kind of shells, shells are not only a block that flies, breakfast - this is a propellant charge, and what happened to the propellant plant in shostka, where was it taken from? no, they left him like that until the russians chopped him up there, well, you have absolute incompetence hidden behind your young faces. and this has consequences today, whether or not, whether ukraine could today to produce, cool means of air defense, the same kbb luch presented air defense, which is not inferior to the best western analogues, nevertheless, and here the horse has not been lying around until now, why? yes, there is no funding, because it is easier to buy something to get a quick kickback than to make it yourself, i am not even talking about weapons now, because i don’t want to blame the weapons here, but to bury my own manufacturer in order to

earn on quick kickbacks by buying from different types of intermediaries, that's it ours know how, it's enough to recall the production of a tikh. how much it costs for its own manufacturer and how the price tripled when they traveled from turkey through 28 intermediaries, well, this is a figurative expression, so it is not a quote, but nevertheless we remember from 27 dollars the price rose to 80 and more, and you know, and today we can tell a lot here. shmegal's government counted 36 billion for ammunition. and three dots, a question mark, that there is no ammunition, no billions, lviv is some kind of a roadblock there. the same company, you see, received a crazy order from shmigal's government. is shmigal in prison now? no, he continues to run the government because it is beneficial to someone, and who can benefit from this? to date, i believe that this is beneficial exclusively to the political office of the fsb, which works on the territory of ukraine. who is involved in this

matter, the sbu, let them check, they are in their office, they screwed up a bunch of russian agents, so i strongly do not trust their counter-intelligence at the moment. well, this is my personal position, i have the right, such a story, until things, this company you mention is called lviv arsenal , and this company received 1 billion 400 million advance payments for, shells and for, a large batch of mortar rounds of 120 and 82 mm caliber, and by the way, this company was headed by zbitniv, you know, yuriy is confused, and therefore the question remains open, but yesterday, yesterday, putin was present at the training of strategic nuclear forces, which involved all three types of carriers of nuclear weapons, land, sea and aviation, this was all told with pomp in russia, a rocket was launched from the plesetsk cosmodrome, v

arkhangelsk region on the kura training ground in kamchatka and this intercontinental ballistic missile. so-and-so is called yars. the fact that putin is doing it now and demonstratively shows it all , they want to convince the whole world that putin is ready to simply burn everyone to ashes, because he has some super-duper weapon with which he can destroy the whole world. by the way, trump also spoke yesterday about the fact that they stole some blueprints there under obama from the americans, built, well, trump's literal quote: super-duper some new rocket there. bitch does russia have this super-duper weapon, it's easier saying, wunderwaffe, with which, with which they can simply blackmail not, not even ukraine, but the whole world, let's be honest, once they considered dagger missiles, which a patriot knocks down once or twice, as a super-duper weapon, i

remember a one-time attack on in kiev, if i'm not mistaken, they threw five or six daggers at a time there, at first there was one trial one, we shot it down, and then about five at once, so that's the story, but is there... russia in general , they have opportunities to create certain programs, of course a closed cycle of weapons production, and what they need, thanks to the circumvention of sanctions, they have, they have, we open any tin can, any russian missile, any that has flown to us, even shaket, and we see that there is a lot of defensive technology , they use them, but where do they get them, how do they buy them, the world, unfortunately, many people in the world have replaced the word: values ​​with the word price, for them nothing is important, there is a price, a price, money, dollars and they left, so the russians use this, the greed of many people, the collective security system of the world has bubbled up, that's all, it's gone, it doesn't work anywhere in the world, it doesn't work, that's all, only the position of power today decides how

to survive, at this moment, thank god, we have the support of western partners, we can survive , russia is a very big country and cannot be underestimated. she also survives, well, let's be honest, russia has been waging a full-scale war against ukraine for the second year, they use twice, three times, even today, more shells than we do. we are helped by 53 countries, or how many ramstein is entering there now, and they are fighting alone and of course the occupiers, but china does not give them for nothing, china does not give them for nothing, and yes , north korea also does not give them for nothing, that is , they have money, despite the confiscations. assets for gold bullion reserves, which in europe have been confiscated, well, how can i say, frozen and so on, they continue to fight, we are helped by 50 countries, well, you see what is happening in the world, because if baryghs do not replace the word price, the word values, we we will fight for a long time. guterres' recent statements regarding israel and hamas,

it all speaks of something, it speaks of the organization of the united nations. and who goes there? so there are a bunch of countries included, all of them, and what, does it work? no, it doesn't work. we can see how the un council can effectively block any decision, absolutely, by a vote of any member. that is, it all no longer works. so it is necessary to invent new configurations for this. information is invented only after the war, so i believe that this war , this rain is still for a long time and we need to prepare. thank you, mr. major, for the conversation, it was a special forces officer, an officer of the armed forces of ukraine, ihor lapin. friends, we are working live on the tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are currently watching us on these platforms, please like our video so that it is trending on these platforms. well, take part in our vote, today we ask you about this. how do you evaluate the actions of the leadership of ukraine in carrying out

reforms in the state, enough, not enough, it is difficult to say, and your option, please write in the comments under this video. we have communications political scientist, people's deputy of ukraine of the fourth convocation, volodymyr tsibulko. mr. volodymyr, i congratulate you, glad to see you on our air. good evening, let's start with putin's friends. hamas, because today representatives of hamas flew to moscow, led by a member of the political bureau of the movement, or marzuk, and as they say in moscow , well, at least zakharova, this alcoholic zakharova says that hamas really came to discuss with the russians how they behaves with hostages who are in gas sector, and in what way these hostages are to be returned, this visit to hamas testifies to russia's direct ties and russia's influence on

the situation in the middle east, does moscow want to act as international mediators, putin in the role of international, leader of the international such a peacekeeping mission, that is, what does this visit to moscow mean? well, actually, this visit set it on fire. on a thief 's hoof, so called because hamas caught hostages on putin's birthday on the 1st of october, er , according to various intelligence estimates about 200 people, he seems to have handed over two, well, he handed over a few more , so to speak, they seem to be supporting, it is certain that they are taking care of these hostages, no one knows for sure, the state of health of the hostages, the number of...

alive hostages, but the fact that hamas came to negotiate in order to make these hostages russian bargaining chips shows that the organizer of this arrangement was russia itself, they did not go to tehran to negotiate that tehran dispose of these hostages, they actually came to moscow with the aim of revitalizing negotiating position at the expense of the fact that moscow can now trump, well, trade these hostages. by doing this, they actually burned moscow's idea to catch a group of hostages in order to trade with the west. as we recall, starting from february 14th, when russia attacked ukraine, this practice of trading... an exchange fund, it accompanies all 9 years of the war with

russia, i want to remind you that the hostages of the claim, those who are under orders bankovoi surrendered, er, to the russian authorities in mariupol, more than a thousand of them are still in russian captivity, today and yesterday, in the middle east, there was... french president emmanuel macron and he says that the ground operation planned by tzahal in gaza may lead to unforeseen consequences and that this special operation will harm the civilian population and most importantly will not guarantee israel's long-term security. let's hear what macron said. france recognizes israel's right to defend itself. itself and to protect its population, but it recognizes this as part of respect for the civilian population, so a ground invasion

should only target terrorist groups that are fully identified, it is clear that biden and macron probably have a different approach to what is happening in the middle east, macron, after all, has a very large palestinian diaspora and representatives of the arab world living in france itself, they are going to huge protests actions against israel and in support of palestine, in your opinion, how will the events in the middle east develop, taking into account the fact that israel is already ready for a ground operation, and today once again benjamin netanyahu said that we are ready, it's just a matter of time, for now we will not announce, iran and syria are saying that if they touch us, we will also get involved in this war, what are the possible scenarios of the development of events in the middle east, how will it affect ukraine and world. mr. serhiy, well, you haven't

mentioned qatar yet, there's qatar's chief minister there, too. bet my five cents, i want to remind you that qatar is a direct sponsor of hamas, direct, that is, it grew, in fact, the iranians invested more in hezbollah, and the gas sector is sponsored by qatar, but in terms of macron's visit, macron's situation is very bad, because france, well, suffered a defeat in africa, where even. this russian gang, the wrong wagner, pushed out the contingent of the french izmal and now macron is still trying to fit france into some international scenarios, but france is always asking for the caucasus and now, as far as i know, france has started supplying some

weapons to armenia and probably hopes in the near future for training mission, but in general, france dropped out of the big concert, from big scenarios, although its role in helping ukraine, as we can see, not small, but not leading, here we see more the united states, britain, poland, but really france is quite, quite makes a big contribution, just uh, you can say that france is some kind of uh underformed scenario, an ill-formed mission, because macron flew to moscow, putin crossed over macron and started aggression against ukraine , then, france tried and macron tried to play something in africa, as we see, west africa, especially does not look back at the position

of france, and now, when macron appeared. eh in fact, in the middle east, it is also a strange story here, because without macron, israeli politicians understand much better what to do with their own security, and how to act so as not to lose unnecessary people, that is, in this sense, the israeli military is not macron also knows very well those who will repulse the deliberate assaults of his e fighters, eh, and in terms of zeal and militancy, then he will outplay the french armed forces once and for all, so in this sense, macron has simply enlightened himself , that is , he reminded that france is an important country in the world, but especially to deal with him,

obviously, they will not be in a hurry even to jerusalem. let's return, mr. volodymyr, to the events in ukraine, because about the elections that had already started to be talked about, just a few weeks ago, or maybe a month and a half ago, about the possibility of holding presidential and parliamentary elections during the war , and ruslan stefanchuk spoke about it , the chairman of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, who said that he is conducting consultations with speakers from other countries and is consulting on whether it is possible to hold elections in ukraine during the war or not, and said that there are five key problems for holding elections in ukraine in 2024, let's listen to stefanchuk. the first question is how to ensure the right to vote for our servicemen. the second question, as i
