my greetings, this is the svoboda ranok project, as always at this time you watch us in order to know the most important news that you need to understand, my name is oleg galiv and so on. don't miss this in our broadcast. commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhnyi, in an article published by the economist, stated that the war is now entering a new stage, and this may benefit russia. it is about grueling battles, like in the first world war. let's talk about how it will look on the battlefield and whether putin will really benefit from such a development. russian forces attacked poltava region, they hit an oil refinery, as well as through strikes in the region.

power transmission lines were de-energized. how and with what the region prepares to protect the energy infrastructure in winter. he confirmed to the media that he will run for president and even presented an election program. oleksiy aristovych, a former adviser to the office of the president of ukraine, proposes to demand from a collective measure accession to nato with an obligation not to recapture the territories occupied at the time of accession, but to seek their return only by political means. it was a direct quote. who are such statements aimed at and how should they be treated in wartime, when elections, the authorities say, are impossible. don't forget to comment and like and subscribe to our youtube channel, it's important to get more people saw this video. the defense forces are continuing their offensive in the bakhmut direction, the general staff of ukraine reported on this. they say that over the past day, russian forces have unsuccessfully tried 10 times to restore lost positions near klishchivka and andriivka, which

are south of the city, and have also stormed ukrainian positions in the area of ​​the village of pivdenne, which is not far from horlivka, but north of bakhmut, the initiative of the russian of the army, the telegram channel bakhmujiv writes about it here. russian pro-war publics vorgonzo and ryadovska, too reported a counterattack by the russian army in the north of bakhmut, in particular near the village of berkhivka in the direction of bohdanivka. meanwhile , the russian ministry of defense announces heavy losses of the ukrainian army in the kupyan direction. allegedly, the armed forces of ukraine lost 245 soldiers there during the day. they say this is the result of repelling ukrainian attacks in the area of ​​the village of senkivka, kharkiv region. in ukrainian, however, they inform about the unsuccessful assault actions of russian forces near senkivka, ivanovka in kharkiv oblast and stelmakhivka in luhansk oblast. but the commander of the syrsky ground forces announced the day before that the russian military has no strategic success in the kupyansk direction. they want to occupy kupyansk again, but the armed forces of ukraine are thwarting their

attempts to move forward, says sirskyi. meanwhile, the fighting for avdiivka became one of the bloodiest since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of ukraine. in almost three weeks of battle, the russian army was unable to make the quick breakthrough it so wanted. according to the institute for the study of war, in these battles the troops of the russian federation lost hundreds of people and hundreds of armored vehicles. 59 and a separate motorized infantry brigade are fighting on the right flank of the avdiiv direction. for details of how this happens, see the report of our colleagues, evgenia kitaeva and anna kudryavtseva. on october 10, six in the morning, it all started with massive artillery shelling, then at 6:00 a.m. convoys of equipment moved, the first column from this side of donetsk went, we still saw it, well, quite far from the demarcation line, and it was already our first. and the drones went to meet

, worked, we killed the first unit in principle, so that the column got old, and then, thanks to the same means of reconnaissance and correction , they worked as artillery. the columns were hurrying near our positions and the infantry tried to advance, the tanks fired at the infantry positions, the bempkas also fired so that no one could raise their heads, but the fivishniks hit three tanks at once, and then the offensive wavered and they were joined by vehicles that showered the infantry with drops , in the evening we already joined in finishing off these russian russian groups with night means, we start deep in the rear, this in

our kamikaze drones are already operating in the sands or on the outskirts of donetsk, they tried to enter our flank from the flank, already further to the rear, in order to cut off some of the positions that we had there and how to conduct a defensive operation in a circle, thereby blocking our supplies there, this they set themselves such a goal. well, it is from the first day of their assault, yes. they did not have such a wonderful plan, i can say that what they spent and what they got is nothing at all. they suffered great losses, very great, not one meter did not pass, without constant observation of what is happening there, er, whether a mouse will run there, or a cat will pass by, we can see all this, and thanks to the means we have, we can already constantly see their rear. we are staying overnight, this week was very difficult, very difficult, when there were these reports on bakhmut, now we felt the intensity of this work, for this there is an operation that they started, people were brought to them and breakfast and everything, logistics

were provided , they were preparing for this, there is an intensive... offensive from the enemy's side on the side of avdiyivka, today in our direction, let's say it's hot, hot, if it's hot for the artillerymen, then you can imagine what it's like for our poor infantrymen, due to the intensity , we are now mainly working to destroy the enemy's batteries or artillery means of some kind of influence on us, we take on our range 20 km, and just at this range the enemy's artillery is located and we are trying to neutralize them so that they do not harm ours, they have a large number of shells, and we are fighting back, so far we are on the defensive, but how many arrived earlier and how many arrives now in the day, in

on average, the number of their shellings increased by at least 10 times, the first day was very stressful, it was not... expected for the medics, we learned in the morning that they started to advance, and the first two days were difficult, then there was a decline, our medics even took a prisoner, they went after the wounded and took a soldier of the storm unit, and how it happened, it happened, there was a rotation, these are the soldiers of these three battalions, they did not know the area, one went to the medics. began to ask for directions, well, one of the doctors the shooter was armed, reloaded, quickly, took the trap, and that was it, they disarmed, twisted, brought, there were several days very difficult, very difficult, five more crews left one day, so medical you mean,

we have to go 15-20 minutes, we inject solutions in the car, inject drugs, work with wounds, it takes 15-20 minutes, we look there. stop, if necessary, we can stop, carry out some manipulation, go further. the most common of such serious injuries are amputations, given the provision of first aid on the battlefield, that is, if people are trained people who know how to apply a tourniquet, carry out its conversion, carry out a bandage, then no, it is not the most difficult, because they are good enough to receive pre-medical assistance,

you hear me, everything is fine, i will help you, consciousness, unconsciousness, keep quiet, everything is fine, everything is quiet. everything is fine, we are going to the hospital, ours, everything is quiet, i am holding his hand, he is tearing up, hold on, war is life and death, here you feel life most vividly and see death most often. the coffee in the morning is very tasty, the air is very clean, despite the fact that it is miserable, the brown bread is delicious, who if you haven't been here, you don't appreciate life. almost half a thousand consumers in the poltava region were left without electricity, three settlements were cut off . reported to the ministry of energy. this is the result of an attack by russian forces with missiles and drones the day before. the city of kremenchuk

was attacked by drones and an oil refinery was attacked. this was announced by the head of the poltava regional military administration. according to the ministry of internal affairs , almost 100 rescuers extinguished the fire for several hours and used a robot for extinguishing the fire. there were no casualties. explosions also heard in the myrhorsk community, the correspondents of the social media report. it should be noted that from the beginning of october. this is already the sixth shelling in poltava oblast. the previous five, which were reported officially, were in the myrhorsk district. the last one was on the night of october 31. then there were no casualties and damage to civilian or critical infrastructure. however, earlier local authorities reported the destruction of civilian houses in populated areas. in recent weeks , the air force has been warning of a ballistic threat when the poltava region anxiety. philip prony, head of the poltava regional military administration at the moment.

joins our conversation, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, on the night of november 1, the russian army attacked your region with drones, there was an actual hit on the oil refinery in kremenchuk, what were the consequences, have you already managed to eliminate all the problems that arose as a result, primarily about the most important thing, fortunately, people were not injured and the civil infrastructure too, all the responsible services worked at the scene, they are grateful to the rescuers, they as for the consequences, the enterprise was not functioning before the enemy attack, all users were connected to the electricity supply yesterday at 2 o'clock, but there was a thunderstorm and a gust of wind at night. currently, in three communities, 400 subscribers are without electricity, power engineers are working on the spot, reporting on the situation every hour , that is, this is actually the story that happened due to bad weather, that there was a power cut in certain places, everything happened... both an opportunity and shelling at the same time, well, as they say, it's all life, as far as it goes

have there been more frequent attacks by russian forces in your poltava region, and what can you attribute this to? and over the past six months, especially over the past week, the number of attacks on poltava oblast has increased significantly, including missile strikes, drone attacks, and recently air raids in the region for several hours every day, we understand that the enemy... left will only intensify closer to winter attacks, so security is paramount. i would like to take this opportunity to emphasize the civil infrastructure for everyone, i spoke with people, they are not leaving, they are on the contrary are determined and want to rebuild their homes as soon as possible. we, as the administration , help them in this, in particular, we will send compensation for damaged property from the regional budget. currently , the peace speaks for the restoration of damaged property. more than uah 1 million, for the first time, 19

people received funds within 3-5 days, and another part of the applications is currently being processed and considered, and now the topic of shelters is no less important, because it is one thing when shelling is heard and people are called to go to shelters, another question is whether these shelters are enough, how they are equipped, taking into account the fact that the weather conditions worsen, it gets colder, and so on, as in the poltava region with this, how often residents from different districts dova. the head of the regional military administration is addressed with the fact that there may be problems with shelters in one of the districts, the authorities on the spot do not respond, and what is the situation in general? i will give general figures like this: in poltava oblast, there are more than 1,100 radiation shelters and more than 100 of the simplest shelters, all registered protective structures are checked for availability every quarter. last check showed that all shelters are available, and if appeals are received, we will work together with local self-government and responsible services, for the convenience of people on the website of the regional council and the administration

, a separate tab with a list of shelters for each community has been created. and there is one more question about how the poltava region is preparing to protect critical infrastructure before winter, how it is happening, whether there is anything to protect, what should the residents, for example, the residents of poltava oblast, i mean, who are currently watching our air and are preparing to meet winter, how well is everything protected and how are you preparing to protect those objects that are really important? we keep the issue of strengthening protection and uninterrupted operation of critical infrastructure under constant control, we recently inspected all the districts of the region regarding the condition of such objects, examined each of them, made certain conclusions, and discussed those points that need to be refined, soon we will make another visit to the object objects to make sure that all deficiencies have been corrected, you and i understand what if to set a task and not check its execution, there will be no result, so for us

it is one of the priorities, firstly, to identify shortcomings, secondly, to carry out the check and establish that everything is normal. thank you, thank you for tuning in, talking about the situation in poltava region, philip pronin , the head of the poltava regional military administration, a guest of our broadcast, we talked about the consequences that occurred after russian troops attacked poltava region. at the front, a protracted positional war begins, which benefits russia, about it said the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, valery zaluzhny. in an english-language weekly. his column about how to win in ukraine, how to win a war with russia in ukraine was published. now moving into a new phase, what we in the military call a positional war of static and attrition like wwi, as opposed to a maneuver war of movement and speed, this will benefit russia, allowing it to rebuild its military power, which ultimately will threaten

the armed forces of ukraine and the state itself. zaluzhnyi says that he will restore his own territorial integrity. ukraine can only with the help of military force. the key need for this is technology. it is innovative approaches that will be able to turn the positional war, which is dangerous for ukraine, into a war of maneuvers - says the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine. he named five points of what the ukrainian army needs most now. if ukraine wants to break out of this trap, we will need all these things. air superiority, greatly improved means of electronic warfare and counter-battery warfare. new ones demining technologies and the ability to mobilize and train more reserves. we must also focus on modern command and control. so we will be able to visualize the battlefield more effectively than russia and make decisions faster and rationalize our logistics while at the same time undermining russia with longer- range missiles.

we will discuss this article, this column by valery zaluzhny, as well as other relevant topics, with our guest. oleksandr kovalenko, a military spectator of the information resistance group, is our guest broadcast, for which we are grateful, because your analysis is important. congratulations, mr. oleksandr. good morning well, actually, what are the biggest risks of the positional war that mr. zaluzhny is talking about, and this is already a guaranteed development of events in the near future, or can something change after all. well, in this context , generalizing somewhere, this positional war, in simple language, is a war that is in the trenches, well, yes, if we speak conventionally and maximally yes, simplified, then yes. this is when the positions do not change somehow radically along the front line, but when, if and there is an advance, then it is not kilometers, but meters, tens of meters, well, hundreds of meters , that is, that is exactly, skirmishes along the skirmish line, in small numbers,

in small groups, but at the same time the enemy bears losses, because he, he, he must constantly to provide equipment, personnel, and units along the entire line of combat proportionally, and in this war the one who bears the least losses and who uses the resource he has more effectively will win, but i do not think that this is unanimous, one hundred percent this is exactly the kind of war it will be take place in the near future, because we have to face it, if we are talking about a positional war, then this is a war for years. mr. oleksandr, well, after all, zaluzhny already talks about this and therefore it is also necessary to analyze it, and this is one of the points on which he emphasizes, he says that control over the sky is very necessary for large-scale ground operations, meanwhile the training period of the ukrainian of pilots in the united states on f16 aircraft, as

they say, who are in the pentagon, can be there from five months, even up to nine called a number, i.e. in fact, this positional war may last for at least six months or a year until ukraine receives the necessary number of fighter jets in order to have control in the sky, right, well, this is possible , and that was the hint of valery zaluzhnoy that if we are talking about a positional war, then at some point it will be completed and will change into a completely different format, it can go under a... let's call it offensive, large-scale offensive actions, but for this we need to create the appropriate conditions, because if we talking about air space, it's true, we have a big problem. the topic now is with the russian aviation, which uses guided aerial bombs on a large scale, massively, and not only that, but

we cannot counter this aviation effectively, we do not have the appropriate means, so i do not rule out that this positional one will be taken, let’s call it that , a conditional positional pause in order to wait for changes in conditions in the air. and then start liberating ukraine under a new scenario, although, again, although, this does not negate the fact that i see opportunities, for example, i see opportunities for us to win a victory on some bridgeheads and have a development of events, so here is a positional war, if we talk about it, it can accordingly be for some of the bridgeheads, and not at all. along the entire line of battle with the collision. mr. oleksandr, and there was also a phrase that it could be in the hands of putin, because russia will be able to restore its military power during a positional war, so how do you

assess how much the russian federation really is, if this conditionally positional war will last there, i don't know, six months, a year in the nearest future, will be able to restore its military power and in what context, i.e. it is to produce more missiles, get more ammunition, i don't know, dismantle more equipment from soviet times. in which direction exactly, well, this is exactly what we started with when we talked about the war of propositions, in it the one who uses his resources more effectively will win, and the one who bears greater losses will lose, and therefore, if russia's losses, russian occupation troops, they will be more or equal in capabilities of the russian military-industrial complex to compensate. these losses, they will not be able to accumulate anything, they will not be able to accumulate mechanized components, technical components and so on, but on

the other hand, if it is the other way around, then unfortunately they will be able to form even new units and provide them with full-time equipment, so here it is can contribute to the fact that they will be able, due to deconservation, removing the preservation of equipment, to restore the potency...' not of their entire army, but of most units. mr. oleksandr, what do you think, is there in the context of what is currently happening at the front and what mr. zaluzhny writes about the positional war, here is the responsibility of the west and how big it is, by the west in general i mean the ukrainian partners who give weapons, they help with weapons, but maybe not so much if ukraine wanted it, that is, is it possible to talk about the fact that it was possible to reach a positional war, including... and because the event may have slowed down somewhere in the context of aid to ukraine? well, the answer to this question is very simple, we are now

we receive from our partners, for example, the usa, such excellent missiles as atakams began to receive them, the first batch was small, but there will be others, but the question arises, why, why did we not receive them in august 2022, what was the problem. what got in the way, why did it take so long to make a decision? or questions also regarding aviation, pilots, ukrainian pilots could have long ago started undergoing training, basic training in nato countries, on f-16 fighters or on some other fighters, but this only started in the second half of 2023 year, that’s about great, but it could start, well, for example, at the end of the 22nd year, at the beginning of 2022, when the full-scale invasion

of ukraine began, ukraine appealed to international partners with a warning to close the airspace over ukraine with their anti-aircraft means defense, of course no one would do that, everyone understood that, but it was a hint that we should be provided with air defense equipment. appropriate high-quality, effective, and only in december 2022 we heard, not received, but heard that we are getting the patrion air defense system, although on at the very beginning, when we appealed, well, if you don’t close the sky, then give us modern pppo, and we were told, well, we will give you a ppo, but with rk patriot even, do n’t dream, you never get it, but we got it, why was to say never if we got it. almost a year later, but this year he cost many lives, so here is the answer to this question. mr. alexander, and

next to that, north korea started supplying weapons to russia back in august, so far more than a million artillery pieces have been delivered shells, bloomberg reports in particular. how can it affect, in general, the development of events at the front, and conditionally in the context of this positional war, about which we are already talking so much today, how much more can north korea help russia and with what? well, north korea still has shells, although it will not send all of them to russia. and a million is enough. a serious amount that can support, essentially support the russian artillery, although , again, the russian artillery now has not only the problem of the amount of ammunition, but and the problem of the quality of this artillery, it is significantly inferior to the ukrainian artillery in terms of quality, as well as the question of how exhausted the resource of this artillery is and

other points, the only advantage the russians have now is the number, they really have, despite the huge losses, they have a much larger amount of artillery, and what can north korea help with, besides ammunition, and it can really be equipment, it can be tanks with the appropriate calibers, it can also be both barrel and rocket artillery, rocket system... rocket systems of salvo fire, so there is something to help, whether it will be, that is another question, well, it already helps with ammunition, it helps so seriously, will it send equipment, i saw a video on which howitzers, where 30 were demonstrated, which are going in the direction somewhere along the railway track in russia, but it has not been verified that it is

the northern region. howitzers, because russia is also in storage, especially in the far east, there is a large amount of such artillery in storage centers and warehouses, so it there could be a de-canning of russian hawks, but i do not rule out the possibility that north korea can also transfer a certain amount to russia. mr. oleksandr, i thank you for this inclusion, as always for a thorough analysis, oleksandr kovalenko, military observer of the information resistance group, guest of the broadcast. freedom of the mornings, we talked about the column of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine zaluzhny with the economist, where he says that ukraine is now entering a positional war. 72-year-old ihor yavorskyi spent 35 days in the basement of an apartment building in mariupol at that time, active fighting was going on in the city. the man left his native mariupol only when he realized that it was dangerous for him to stay there because of his pro-ukrainian position. especially since the neighbors handed over eight

ukrainian soldiers dressed in civilian clothes to the fsb of russia. my colleague halyna tereshchuk heard the story of one of the thousands of ukrainian immigrants whose life was changed by the war. if you saw a picture there somewhere, here are pictures of mariupol, let's say, there in the 20th year, 21 years of mari, or who came there, well, it was an unrecognizable city, and the city center, there and fountains, there. it was a fairy tale, a fairy tale, yes, and now everything is broken there, i was already leaving , so i left, the war started with us on the 24th, we are already, i was still at home until the 27th, on the 27th, an airplane missile hit our house , i was just in sleep, which in
