[000:00:00;00] and they were raked in before, but now they are giving new plans, there are no new people for the new plans, and this is not a problem of people, it is a problem of the same volodymyr oleksandrovich zelsky, who, the military asked to lower the bar from 27 to 25 years, to the best soldiers exactly 25, from 25 to 30 years old, but in our country they are called up, only voluntarily, up to 20. and from 27 only, well, if it was forced, yes, then zelensky himself did not sign this law, then now, there is nothing to blame on the mirror, as they say, naroseyushki, when, well, you understood how to proceed, that is, accept this law and call from the age of 25, try to cancel those who are currently with us, right now

we have a lot of people studying there for master’s degrees, bachelor’s degrees, there even in pttu, in postgraduate studies, well, in general, well, those who want to study are terrible, in us at the gluhiv national sub-university plus 700 people this year, well, that is, do it, make the base bigger, let’s be honest, we have somewhere around one and a half million people fighting, we even have a population of 30 million, not 40, yes , the mobilization potential is about 20% of people, that is, we have 6 million people who can be called up boldly, they called one and a half, where else, it turns out, well, it’s big, well, it’s clear that someone escaped, someone still has health there, someone else, something else, something else, something else, but i think what to call from whom, and such a situation turns out, i’m telling you honestly, i’m very often in

one of the international projects in the villages near the front, i’m there, every other day on the belt, yes, there is no one there somewhere in krasnopil, in bilopil, you healthy men you won't find them, there aren't any, but by the numbers, go, how many healthy , strong, young people there are, there are years 25-27, well, there are a lot of them, well, for some reason, they are not called up, that is why they have mobilization potential, and one more thing, one more thing i wanted to say... that there are two demotivating factors, the biggest ones, the first is corruption in ukraine, when everyone talks here, not only about corruption in the central authorities, but our mayor was recently bribed, there is something else, something else, something else, this is the first, that is, corruption in ukraine is the main demotivating factor, and the second, when they tell me there like, well

, look, here we all went to fight, but the deputy has two sons there, but they didn't go to fight, but look, there is a businessman, and he has two sons, they did not go to fight, and there is one deputy, and he has two daughters, well, two sons-in-law, two sons-in-law are sitting here, they announced somewhere there i don’t feel like it, and this is the second demotivating factor, that it turns out that someone is fighting and someone is not, and the more money someone has, the less, mr. viktor, i just want to have time to ask one more question, because time something treacherously emerges, but i will make it, volodymyr zelenskyi said that the information is important intelligence management, according to information from our partners, he, he became aware that maidan 3 is being prepared in ukraine, we literally have two minutes, how would you rate it, i will just remind you that we should

have had on december 1, 2021 coup d'état with the participation of akhmetov. i am just reminding you, they also talked about it then, please, i think it is stupid, i, as a representative of civil society, as a participant of all the maidans that were before this, i say: volodymyr oleksandrovich, calm down, i will not leave and i will give others, go to the square, there will be no may day, not only that, we will recognize zelensky as the legitimate president even after may 20 of next year, so there is no need to hold elections, but... but all the talk is about what he says: oh, there are traitors who are there narratives of moscow, this is what i will tell you, vasyl, when , on february 24th and 25th, i spoke on many of your channels, on ten channels, i had 10-12 inclusions there, i said , that the sumy government abandoned the city, and the head of the regional military administration, the mayor there, the police,

sbu, everyone ran away. they left the city and the city defended itself without power, without leaders, you know what they put on me, viktor boberenko sowed panic, that is, telling the truth is panic, and now i say: volodymyr oleksandrovich, take away corruption and there will be nothing, not even the prerequisites of the maidan it won't happen, just don't let them steal from you in the places, at all costs, yes, and do, do something else so that it is fair, so that not only all the villages are raked, but all the rogues are raked under the rake, into the army and everything , all children of local deputies. thank you very much, as always, emotionally, professionally and interestingly, viktor boberenko, a political scientist , was in touch with us, he represents the bureau of policy analysis, from sumy oblast, we talked a little about sumy oblast and, in general, about this maidan 3, well,

now we will talk in more detail about the situation at the front, such a summary of the week should also be made by serhii zgurtsen, director of the defense agency, serhii, congratulations, congratulations to you, congratulations to our viewers, today we will really talk about what happened on the front line this week, what were the most important events, and try look in the week which is approaching everything in a moment, yes, well, let's start, i'll ask a short question as an introduction, because today we have enough thematic questions, but today supreme commander-in-chief volodymyr zelenskyi held a meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief, they heard umerov, they heard representatives of the generals on the situation at various directions, we wrote down to the president how much we need to conduct hostilities, and also for the missile program, what do you think, but now these rates are in light of the fact that we lack help from our partners military, they can direct money and all efforts to strengthen domestic production, well , in fact, we hope so, because really, when the president

mentions the missile program, it has already been going on for a considerable period of time, it was activated just before the invasion, and of course, the attention from the president, i hope, will speed up the work of those enterprises that are responsible for this, and with regard to ammunition, drones, other areas, we understand that now, the money from the fees, which were used there for the military or from these road fees and so on, they will be directed to the purchase of ammunition and drones, i hope that our industry will be able to manufacture more of these necessary things for the battlefield, well, the drones flew a long way in russia this week, it is not the farthest they flew , i remember that once there were flights to engels, i think 500 or 600 kilometers there, even more there, up to 700 km, but i don’t know what these swifts flew then or what they were called, yes there are still such paradises, but

now there have been explosions near volgograd, this well, about 500 km from the launch point, well, there were a number of other attacks on the territory of russia, new ukrainian long-range drones, what are they, what are the prospects? what other goals can be set before them? well, indeed, this week we saw several such examples of the effective operation of new strike drones, although we did not say that they were ukrainian, but logically we understand that these are indeed samples of our defense-industrial complex, we saw several such examples, in particular there and strikes on the bryansk chemical plant, which there it manufactures supply systems for self-propelled guns, we saw strikes on the kbb of machine-building in kolomna, which... the tskb develops iskanders and daggers, literally there on the 15th, exactly the events near volgograd, where in the settlement of kotluban there was a drone strike on

gunpowder warehouses from there small arms, it just had an effect on the fact that there was a big fire, and this is a reflection of this strategy, which the main intelligence agency announced earlier, that is, carrying out strikes on the defense industry. structures of the enemy, about ammunition storage in the depths of the territory the enemy, and this is really the use of those systems that have already been developed for a long time, we can talk about the beaver uav and the morok uav, whose names and characteristics are already known, that is, the range is more than 500 km, 800 km, which are used for strikes on these objects, in particular, it seems that yesterday the main intelligence department there said that this is where the money was collected for the so-called black box, that is, when the fund of the women who were alive and in a group collected about 230 million hryvnias and these funds were made these drones bobek, which

caused losses to the enemy of about 900 million dollars, that is, in fact, we see this asymmetric approach, which is based on the use of these drones, and now the issue of scaling, the ministry of strategic industry spoke about this just yesterday. oleksandr kamyshyn said that we started to manufacture alyashakh drones there with the number of dozens per month, i think that we need to manufacture hundreds of them per month, per month, and then it will be a really worthy answer. russian attacks. i read last week that the atesh movement on the territory of the occupied crimea, discovered places - the deployment and accumulation of russian missiles and ammunition there, well, this is the information that was released, so i am voicing it , and the contributors expressed the hope that this information will be transferred to our special structures, which will be able to strike, because this is what is accumulating in crimea now a large number of missiles by the russians for yes, we are talking about the fact that there are about 800... missiles, well, it is specifically, and are they cruise or ballistic, are they different cruise missiles, first of all, because which

are used for these missile sea carriers of the enemy, we see that the enemy is certainly preparing for these winter attacks, but in any case we see something else, that it is precisely our naval drones that are now forcing the enemy to leave sevastopol and relocate to novorossiysk, but the main bases remain in sevastopol, so that such there is a certain gap in the capabilities of the enemy, and then the question is not only in the stocks of these weapons , but whether the enemy can use these missiles, that is, load them onto submarines, missile ships and launch them, and i think that this is exactly the case such a period a kind of permanent duel between our forces and the enemy who wants to use them, and we are trying to do everything to prevent this from happening. yes, and now for kherson oblast, i still think that there is a certain informational silence regarding the situation in kherson oblast, but

certain data are being voiced again by representatives of the marine brigade , yesterday there was information expressed in radio svoboda, so kherson oblast is finally official confirmation, the main intelligence office officially confirmed that the invaders can retreat from the coast to new frontiers, i mean, the left bank, what does this mean for us and is it not yet again a false start of the so-called regrouping. well, in fact, when we talk about the hostilities in the kherson region, there is not only information from today, let’s say this information, the ice is broken, because we have, we see today many statements from the general staff about the actions of our units on the left bank , information from the marine corps, information from the guru, and there and a statement from the president, who congratulated the marines for their courage and actions on the left bank, showed there a series of pictures showing our soldiers operating on the left bank, and here... you should understand what is happening, because it was

said about a significant amount of personnel and equipment that was destroyed in account of the actions of our units, which are already operating on the left bank, and it was said that sabotage, raiding and reconnaissance actions are being carried out, which reveal the ways of logistical support of the enemy's ammunition, food and artillery positions in order to destroy them with the appropriate means general staff, and one of the missions that the general staff singled out was that one of the main objectives of this work is to push the enemy as far as possible from the right bank to protect the civilian population from constant russian shelling, the farther the russian artillery will be from kherson, the safer it will be for kherson itself, but we understand that this is only one of the component actions of our armed forces, but as for whether we can expect forcing by more powerful forces, i think

that these are still premature conclusions, now the main task is precisely to keep the enemy under tension on a sufficiently wide front line along the left bank, along the left bank, to carry out such raids with the support of our artillery and our fpv drones, although the enemy understands these risks, now there at a distance of 15 km, the enemy in principle has reserves that can be used for such more active actions on the russian side, but we see that these forces are not enough to react to react to the entire length of the front line and the presence several bridgeheads, where our marines are operating, and the defense forces are operating, so in any case, i think that this direction will remain sufficiently nervous for the enemy, as he will continue to act, but we understand that on the ukrainian side there is such, well, appropriate countermeasures that will be directed at that, or these at... directions are connected with the depletion of the enemy's forces, with the binding of his

reserves, they will remain relevant, but i think without the transition of forcing, although today, by the way, there were photos where , a battalion of forces, a regiment of support forces carried out demonstration such pontoon crossings with the help of pontoons in other areas, and this just indicates that there is informational and further pressure on the enemy, so that he is not aware of the actions of the armed forces. well , what's important here, i'll just add that kherson oblast is notable for its special geography, let's say, and a little soil. different, let's say, than somewhere in other parts of ukraine, more sandy soil, steppes, and i think that even during the rainy season there, it is a little different to fight, well, plus steppes, these pine reeds, there are such deserts somewhere, and so on, it may have its own peculiarities, in some ways it may also have disadvantages, a large open area, yes, but on the other hand, there are

some pluses, that you can cut less in swamps and other things, well, in any case , i know that armed ukrainian forces have all this information and they know exactly how to act. better than me, let's talk about the zaporizhia direction, the increase in pressure on the tokmak and berdyan directions, it is possible to win back certain meters and hundreds of meters, is it still a dead end, which they talked about is not so dead end? well actually indeed, we are not talking about an impasse, because an impasse is actually, well, not quite an accurate interpretation of the situation, we now have a situation where the potential of forces from the russian side is from the ukrainian side. commensurate is, let's say, dynamic balance, that is, when the enemy has more artillery there, more air force there or more other means, we compensate for it with other things, which conventionally speaking, well , allow us to hold the line of defense and carry out the advance, as we say about

the zaporozhye direction, there really were such skirmishes near there during the week robotic willow on this so -called toktmak karma. they continue, we do not particularly notice changes on the map, but some tactical changes are taking place, in particular, we talked about the fact that to the northwest of vervovoy, there is precisely an advance in the areas where the enemy managed to advance, and there near vervovoy, there is an exit on one of the dominant heights , there were reports that in fact it would make it easier for the ukrainian troops to further destroy the enemy, but in any case, we understand that some such large-scale advancements are certainly not to be expected, and the main resource for use will remain precisely the artillery and infantry groups that exert, well, pressure on the enemy in these areas, today i read about avdiivka, well

, we will talk about it in the future, what the enemy wants to do on foot, the surroundings of avdiivka, it is like walking in some kind of chains, does not use. defense equipment, or about something, well, the surroundings of the audience on foot, i think that it will be difficult for them to do it, because we remember how effectively cluster munitions work now the enemy in all directions, where the enemy is trying to surround actively from the north and from the south, there were indeed several strategies of the enemy, starting there with mass attacks of armored vehicles, then attacks on foot, then attacks with a small... amount of armored vehicles, but with a larger number of personnel , this is what is happening now around avdiyivka and beyond, now everyone is saying that there will be a third assault, but i think that now there is actually such a constant pressure on our defense forces in the north and in the south, er, the advance

of the enemy, if there is to speak, that's all there was an advance, this is a railroad crossing, about which we have already repeatedly said that the enemy in the north is stretching along this railway, which is a line of defense, they stretched there for about 2 kilometers, before fleeing, crossing the railroad made it difficult for them to move to the steppe , to open areas there, our artillery is really working actively, although the enemy is now really starting to accumulate forces in another circle in order to continue offensive actions and still try to encircle the garrison, but these plans are plans, and the reality can be completely different, i hope, will really be completely different, and we also understand that the enemy's desire to capture avdiivka is not only a political sense, but also a military sense, because we understand that avdiivka remains and is such an important bridgehead for making it impossible

the advance of the enemy in those directions that lead there to kostyantynivka, there and then to sloviansk, kramatorsk, that is, there are many directions that open up opportunities for the enemy, and our troops fully understand this and that is why they are going there our reserves are being transferred, including additional artillery units were also being transferred, so i think that if there is a sufficient amount of resources , the process of destroying the enemy will take place, because we can really see how many enemy forces are drawn to this area, we are talking there to 4,000 personnel throughout this section around avdiivka, although... the avdiivka section itself is even smaller than what was near bakhmut, where the enemy forces were, well, it was about the same, well, there is a road and so on zadiyivka and kurakhove and selidove, the enemy wants... to make such a gate to donbas on donbas for himself, but here is what is noticeable, that , say, avdiyivka is 29 km in area, bakhmud is

41 km in area, that is, it is bigger, well, the enemy managed to capture it there with huge losses, now the armed forces of ukraine are trying to restore the situation, but our advance to chasivyar, sloviansk , kostiantynivka, drushkivka, it did not happen, that is, the city was destroyed, the city was captured, but further , there was no further movement, this was precisely one of the reasons, why was it necessary to get bakhmut in order to prevent the enemy from advancing to these areas, where it was possible to move to the so-called operational space, and now the russians want to implement such a scenario on the basis of avdiivka, because the situation in avdiivka, in pavdiivka is such that, relatively speaking , these are cliches from the north and from the south, they are already hanging over avdiivka, but this is the perimeter around avdiivka, about 30 km, where... the front is stretched and now the enemy is using any options to push closer there, in particular to

berdych, to orlivka, where the logistical connection takes place, but yesterday we just talked with the soldiers from the autodiyivka, they said that it is actually very difficult, but all these attempts of the enemy to go out there and to koksokhim and use any options the squeezes don't work, but now we see the video where there was... the mtlb that was, packed with explosives, this russian fighter jumped out, hope that this mtlb will reach our lines and something will break our defense there, but this mtlb breaks down, blows up halfway on mines, which, by the way, testifies to the minefield of these areas, so the enemy has to break through minefields, through our artillery, that is, this is the situation here , it is important that there are enough shells for the artillery, enough... drones to detect just as we are talking about there some enemy there and aiming is absolutely right, because the technological ones are epoch-making video, but when we talk about what we need, i think

the first thing is absolutely right, it's f-drones and artillery, because these two components are the most important things right now to support our infantry , which is either offensive or defensive, without these things, some other more technological things, they are important, but they are less necessary when we talk about that. assault attacks and the most effective ways to hold the enemy's artillery and drones. one famous ukrainian band sings this is our sea. i mean now about the black, it's my way of singing skrevinka, if i'm not mistaken. the black sea, is it really becoming more ours, i mean not only on paper, but also in reality as a matter of fact, the armed forces of ukraine have summarized the results of the war in the black sea, well, intermediate results. how could this stage be characterized? well, in fact, when we talk about the black sea, there is an economic military component here and there, i’ll start with the military component, the results of which it was possible to destroy russian ships have already been drawn up, in

the conditions where, as i say, we do not have such a fleet of our own, during this period 15 ships were destroyed and 12 ships were damaged, and for this , new technological things were used there, when we talk about our naval drones, comedian, we have even created a separate, such a division, a brigade, rather a brigade of drones, which includes reconnaissance drones there, underwater drones there, kamikaze drones here, and which, as we can see, are quite good at destroying powerful russian ships, driving them away from sevastopol, so this factor is connected with, drone technologies are working, plus here we add missile weapons and it is good that our partners recognize that crimea is absolutely ours. and it was

stormšedow's cruise missile strikes that really gave the increase in numbers these enemy ships, starting from the submarine, there are these missile boats and so on, and uh, the economic component, that is, in fact, we are talking about the fact that there is a grain corridor, or even not even a grain corridor anymore, because we use it and for the shipment of metal, ore, that is, in fact, it is a line of defense along the black sea, which provides cover for the movement of civilian ships and cargo ships in order for our economy to work and the ports to be used, this is also an important factor in the fact that ukraine controls the black sea in that area, which is extremely connected with our, well, economic factors, with our development, well , actually, i only asked one thing, very briefly, but do you remember there, it built for us either corvettes or that there is turkey, we ordered three corvettes from turkey, she is already completing one of them, now the second one is laid, but

she should give it to us after the war, this is a question, by the way, whether we did not do it. a mistake by not betting on the mosquito fleet from the very beginning, when it was necessary to deal with either small ships with a powerful missile weapons, or develop kamikade drones even then, or these large ships, ala corvettes, which can perform a number of functions from air defense to anti-submarine warfare, will we really need them in this format, because large ships are a good target for the enemy, and this is just one challenge, there is a lot of money, the goal is big, and if it is lost, then... it is better to do other conceptual things related to the development of our naval forces. well, thank you very much, serhiev, serhii sums things up quickly, of this war, this week, i hope that the next week will be just as successful, and maybe even better for this week was not easy for us, because the next week will be really more positive, we hope for the determination there of the approaches of the american side

to help ukraine and more supplies weapons and ammunition, it's extreme. perhaps so that our armed forces could really effectively carry out both defense and offense. well, now i have a plot for your attention, so remember and tell the whole world about what the russian army is doing with ukrainian cities today. a street photo exhibition of the ukrainian institute of national remembrance, erased from the face of the earth, is underway in kyiv, where. see and why you should visit this exhibition, let's see in our material. they were wiped off the face of the earth as a result of hostilities, rocket, bomb and artillery attacks by the russian army, many settlements of ukraine were destroyed, some were completely destroyed and turned into ruins. in order to draw the attention of the community to the horrors that the enemy is doing in our country

country, the ukrainian institute of national remembrance organized the exhibition, which can be viewed on the contract square of the capital. we had such a need to focus attention on those settlements that are disappearing today. we came to the conclusion that it should be recorded, for memory, for history, as well as for certain testimonies that will be necessary to provide later, i hope at an international tribunal. luhansk region, donetsk region, kharkiv region, kherson region, mykolaiv region and zaporizhzhia, photo. evidence of destruction from all over of these regions are presented at the exhibition, some cities are divided by 80-100%. popasna, maryenka, soledar, and bakhmud suffered the most. we really need to show this as much as possible, because you know, people somehow get used to all this, but i just came here from odessa for two sundays, and in our country , every night, every night, people beat, beat, especially

the city center, they have already done this, that this cathedral, this heart hurt, tore, i say, i was only afraid for what and am still afraid, i am afraid for the resistant, on the banners of photo works there are also qr codes with a link to short video of the destroyed villages and cities of ukraine, it allows every person to additionally see all the horror of the land burned by the enemy, it is necessary for us to remember it, for us to feel the pain of the war, so that this... not that that it never happened, that it was condemned once and for all, that it is this genocide that russia is creating. the photo exhibition in the capital will last until the new year, after which it will go on a big tour of the cities of ukraine, the organizers plan to translate it into english and several other european languages ​​in order draw the world's attention to this

painful topic. good evening, so the second hour of the great ether is ahead, today there will be the economic results of the week with oleksandr morchevka, the world about ukraine with yuriy fizer, also a summary, there will be sports news from yevhen pastukhov, and news and weather with natalka didenko, or in khurdelyt, as they say, on saturday and sunday, you will find out, now the most important news, i will tell you briefly. two billion euros of military aid was additionally allocated to ukraine in the netherlands for 2024, it was announced minister of defense of the country kaisa ollongren, according to her, this aid is part of a large package that will be provided to ukraine next year. these 102 million euros will be used for reconstruction and humanitarian aid, if necessary, the amount can be increased during the year. the minister added that the total amount of assistance from the kingdom of the netherlands since the beginning of
