that is, we inflict fire damage on the enemy, the enemy takes losses, and what enemy forces are now in your direction? understand, right , what we can see, what we observe, thanks to our scouts, uav pilots, artillery reconnaissance, we see the presence of the enemy, which basically has not changed much over the last few months there, but understand right, it is a presence the enemy is in the front line, that is, what we see, i don't want to give any... especially secrets there, but we see and can inflict fire damage and we try to destroy the enemy when detected, this is a kilometer, and two , and three, and five, and more, and 10, that is, well, that is, and more, and more, i will formulate my opinion roughly like this, and that , what we see, the concentration of the enemy there does not change much, but what scares me the most is that the enemy has endless reserves, in my opinion, especially... of manpower, because

every day we destroy the enemy, every day and our pilots, and our fpv drone operators, and artillery, and our grenade launchers, and machine gunners, and machine gunners, that is, everyone, everyone, everyone inflicts damage on the enemy, makes the enemy suffer losses, let's put it this way, we see every day how they evacuate their wounded, sometimes they don't evacuate, sometimes they just lie there, sometimes they don't evacuate their two hundred who remain and... but every day, that is, the number they send reinforcements every day, and the total number in the front trenches, and there are a few trenches that are further away, also changes little, this leads me to think that they have the opportunity to mobilize unlimitedly to their orkostan, to their army bodyguards, mobs who simply don't know what they're after, or they know what they're after, but agree to become criminals with weapons and come from the ukrainian land that

you now have with equipment? volunteers continue to join our brigade, our units, well, i would once again like to use the opportunity to call to join our team, because for us and, in principle, for many brigades of the defense forces, for many, in general, for the defense forces, there is life every ukrainian soldier, every ukrainian fighter, the most... value, and we understand very well that in modern war, in the war of technology, in the war of artillery, in the war of communication, in the war of logistics, it is important to have this fighting spirit, brotherhood in order to stand for each other, and we we understand very well, as an artillery officer, and all the artillery understand very well that we have to work, because under the artillery the blood of the infantry protects, and even such frosty weather, which is now in the east, it is raining, so that the artillery is under,

and this means that we are working and we work, no matter what, one of the american ones publications cited the words of an unnamed ukrainian gunner, who said that he now produces many times less shells than it was in the summer, and that in principle, the shells have become much less, mr. volodymyr, if you have any, is there a problem with ammunition now? m , i can neither confirm nor deny this thesis, because it is, after all, information with limited access, but i would like to answer your question as follows: there will be enough shells when they are lying around, when there will be no target for that projectile there will be no enemy with which to kill the enemy with that shell, as long as there is an enemy, then there cannot be enough shells, because he, as soon as... we see the enemy, as soon as our

scouts, pilots, artillery scouts see the enemy, we immediately train, but in compensation for this thesis, i would like to say that the enemy really has an advantage in artillery, an advantage in the amount of ammunition, and well, in fact, in everything, the enemy has an advantage , such as the number of those drones and uavs, and eagles and lancets, and missiles somehow every day, there, well , even this morning at night kyiv and territory. ukraine was under missile threat, missiles were shot down, but despite this, the truth is on our side, the spirit is on our side, communication is on our side, the idea, the idea of ​​protecting our homeland, our families, our homeland, our state, and this gives us the ability to win in local small battles, and the sum of these victories, this constitutes the success of the initiative of the ukrainian army, despite all these advantages in shells, in armored vehicles, in metallurgy. in those tanks,

they bear much more loss, and every day we are destroying them, we are talking, you are talking now about a quantitative advantage, or at least we have a technological advantage, now and you as gunners. in particular, it is difficult to say, because after all, the advantage is given when there is a full-fledged advantage, then there is a breakdown of the occupier’s troops, unfortunately , the defense forces do not have a full-fledged, complete advantage, and even at least some component, well, it is difficult for me to say about it, especially what concerns technology, because it is still a narrowly focused specialty, and, but at the moment, we are successfully holding back. all attempts of the enemy advance, and we win even in those battles when the enemy, well, again advances, that is , a repulsed attack, then there is a victory, because the enemy entered the battle, he concentrated fire damage, fire power, probably

overwhelming the fire power, but regardless , he did not succeed, not at all, he did not succeed the enemy of success and suffered losses, that is, this is a victory, this is an initiative by the ukrainian army, this is a great sign. exclamation, because the initiative now belongs to the ukrainian army, despite the news that is happening now and the heavy the situation and honor and glory to the heroes who are now defending kupyansk, avdiivka, near bakhmut, in other directions, in the zaporizhia direction, that is, the entire front line is now burning, along the entire front line the enemy is trying to find a place where they can intercept the initiative, and he does not succeed, from the word... in general, they only manage to keep the initiative by the number of losses. well, general syrsky said that the enemy is trying to advance along the entire front line, does this activity not even reduce the pogo, the weather, the weather conditions, this will be the whole

winter well, i can agree because what i have seen in the media, from my brothers, that the activity of the enemy is all along the line. demarcation along the entire front line , that is, the enemy is looking for weak points where to break through the defense, to develop success, but he does not succeed, and let's be clear, the weather already affects the pace of hostilities, the nature of hostilities, and in most cases the weather affects everyday life , i.e. in the breaks between specific clashes, combat operations, this is everyday life, this is logistics, and the weather already affects it both on the enemy and the defense forces, but these are objective realities in which... you have to hold on, and in which you have to fight, eh, mr. volodymyr, something in us , i got the impression that this was due to the connection, there is , there is a connection, there is, there is, yes, there is a connection, mr. volodymyr , thank you very much for finding the time and opportunity to join us, volodymyr

nazarenko, we were with us, an officer of the artillery of the fourth brigade of the national guard of ukraine rubizh from the front, this was the inclusion of an officer , thanks for that. well, we 're going to take a break in a minute, and here , andriy, our viewers are telling you that you treated and recovered as soon as possible, well gentlemen, thank you very much, but i really got a little sick, i apologize if you hear, well, i'm just and there's not much to replace me with at the moment, so this is the schedule that we follow , and that disease, you know, does not choose when you have a week off and where you have a working week. well, but there is also indignation from the viewer alla grynko about the fact that finally, they say, we woke up, because at four in the morning on all, when on all channels they did not say anything about what happened, then your channel showed some interview from

the only news marathon, i don't know, it's just that a full-scale invasion has been going on for the second year, the only news marathon has been going on for the second year in ukraine, good luck. espresso is not included in this marathon, but forced to broadcast this marathon, and then i think that the complaints are not against espresso, yours, your anger should be expressed, but about the marathon, the only news, in which there is a pool of tv channels selected by the authorities, which receive money from of the state budget, quite large in order to inform you about what is happening in the country, moreover, they get the first for... information, well , that's how it happens, and i don't think it's necessary to express claims to the tv channel team, which, in the conditions in which they find themselves, is doing everything to inform you about what 's happening in ukraine. now we're going to take a short break, then we'll come back and analyze the situation at the front with our

dear friends, we are back on the air, lesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk, working in this studio for you and joining our conversation serhiy zgurets, military expert and director of defense express. mr. sergey, good morning. good morning, greetings, glad to see and hear. mr. serhiy, to begin with we will ask about today's shelling, eight rockets. was destroyed over kyiv, and actually the people , the people of kyiv, complained that there was no announcement of an air alert, instead loud explosions were immediately heard, why did this happen, to explain to the people? well , there is nothing extraordinary here, the enemy actually launched missile attacks around 4 o’clock in the morning, and either ballistics or... russian c4 missiles were used s400 missiles from the territory of the russian federation

, that is, it is an extremely short path and the duration of the approach of these missiles, it is measured literally there, well, up to two minutes, i think that it is precisely because of this that there were no air warning signals, but in any case we understand that the ballistics were repelled by ukrainian air defense means, which... is an extremely good indicator considering the fact that all the missiles that were launched by the enemy were destroyed, and our citizens suffered from the debris, but... in in any case, we understand that this is such, well , we are at another such stage, the winter stage, where the enemy will now use various means to impress, primarily, targeting the objects of the power structure, when exactly where these missiles were directed, while it is difficult to determine, but we remember that shahedi were actively used there for two weeks in a row, here

we see virga, which is in bortnychy near the settlement. even in the settlement there is a large ravine, which suggests that it is because after all, i am inclined even that it is for sure after all, a ballistic missile of the iskander type, because well, the gap is very large, the s400 there, well, carries, well, with smaller amounts of debris into the ground and so on, so in any case, now we have such, well , the next stage of russian terrorist actions that are opposed. our anti-aircraft defense , can we already say that it has begun, this winter campaign of the russians has begun, shelling with ballistics itself, well, i think that we can talk in relation to the temperature indicators, because i think that the enemy is waiting for the moment when will be maximum low temperatures and then use strikes with shahids, and cruise missiles and

ballistic missiles, because not only ballistics is used, of course, for ballistic strikes. the enemy stores there for such measures as he considers most necessary, one can even assume that it is likely that the enemy even tried to install anti-aircraft defense systems, because before that there were shaheds, i repeat, then cruise missiles were used, which were all shot down, and a part of these missiles that was shot down over kyiv, at least three missiles... did not have a warhead, but were primarily directed to detect the anti-aircraft defense system and probably to accumulate new knowledge for the enemy, because we understand that the anti-aircraft defense system is such a mobile component that changes the location, even if the enemy could not determine, well, the most dangerous

directions of strikes, so now ballistics was used, that is, now we have another element that was added... actually in the format of this expected winter attack on kyiv and on our energy facilities. mr sergius syrskyi general syrskyi announced that the russians are trying to attack on the entire front. what is the current situation on the fronts? indeed, this statement of general silsky primarily concerns the east, but in any case, if we look at the statistics there, then compared to the previous weeks, the last week was extremely difficult, that is, the number of combat clashes. somewhere it increased by a third, today, compared to yesterday, the general staff reports that there were 98 combat clashes - these are almost top indicators. during the last four days, that is, 100 combat clashes per day are precisely what characterize the maximum tension in many areas of the front, and of these 98, for yesterday 45, 49 - it is

precisely avdiivka that is the most ... a hot area, although there are others areas, well, they are no less cool there, i will say this, what syrsky says, she, first of all, says syrsky, it is directed at the fact that the enemy is really now carrying out such offensive actions almost along the entire front line, and in my opinion, it already seems this is the third attempt of the opponent to win the results of the 22nd year, when, relatively speaking, there is such a similar mass offensive campaign. the enemy was in since february of this year, when they also tried to advance in many directions, starting from kupin, svatov, krimina, vdiivka, marinka and bakhmut, and now in almost the same directions, now the enemy is also trying to conduct offensive actions, the front line does not systematically change, but we understand that now the enemy is trying, well

, at least there in the nearest period of time, as far as it is possible for ... at least some victories, symbols in certain areas, well, i will ask another question, literally, the question that interests me, we are waiting, of course, and all the military as well as civilians, these are the f-16s that will strengthen air defense and help , we hope, the problem of the use of these cabs, planning bombs by the russians at the front, but here they presented, 16 70 block 70 72 with radar, which is also applied to fifth generation aircraft, i understand that these modifications would be extremely effective in terms of range . there is the use of missiles and so on, interception, and which ones will the modifications be delivered or is it already known whether it could be the block 70, in fact

we are counting on the mlu modification, this is a machine with an extended life, where new radars, new avionics are installed, it is not a block 70, it is just such an average intermediate option. but which actually allows, due to the new radar, to see approximately the same as the russian 135 planes see and to use longer-range missiles, which can really affect the tactics of using russian aviation with cabs or other means impression, but now it is worth remembering that now some certain dynamics around aviation are starting to happen again, because we will remember the for... from the ministry of defense of ukraine to the united states, regarding the transfer of f-18 hornet aircraft, these are carrier-based fighters, twin-engine fighters are quite

effective, and even according to their indicators in terms of carrying capacity and the list of weapons, they do not even surpass the f-16, which is a single-engine light fighter, and the gripen also appears on the agenda again, already again, already ... the deputy minister of defense for armaments of ukraine says that there is a chance that we will carry out training there at the gripins and receive these planes, that is, this discussion is also taking place, it means that we have significant needs for planes, which are measured there according to the minimum estimates, there are 160 f-16-type aircraft there, and this suggests that these are the first deliveries, which ideally will take place for us according to the results there for... at the end of the first there or the second quarter of next year, there will still be some not only an insignificant amount compared to real needs, that is, now we

are once again entering into such a new discussion regarding the search for options for increasing the aircraft fleet not only at the expense of f-16s, but there may also be f-18s and gripen, so we see that this is an extremely necessary need for the armed forces forces well, i will also ask about such a moment, a video appeared... of cuban mercenaries who go to fight in came to ukraine to fight on the side of russia, the russian federation, it is obvious that they were seduced by poor cuba, that country primarily with money, nevertheless, here to what extent the attraction of these mercenaries around the world, from africa, from cuba, from poor countries, is a significant factor in your opinion. replenishment of russian troops, russia now really uses any options for replenishment of personnel, avoiding general

mobilization, but uses such a purchase of dead souls, potential dead souls, first of all in the limpinized regions of the russian federation itself, because due to the high wages there for death in ukraine, they really provide somewhere up to... 20-25 personnel due to the purchase of these of potential dead souls for hostilities in ukraine, certain facts also appear regarding foreign representatives, it is not only cuba, we also saw videos there of people from nepal who, relatively speaking, not having the opportunity to survive there in russia, went to ee contracts with the russian army, but these components do not... do not actually affect these foreign incomes, relatively speaking, mercenaries, do not affect the general picture of dynamics in

the russian army, regarding the fact that the left part after all is made up of citizens of the russian federation . well, i have another question, tsahal published, publishes data about losses during an operation or war. in the country in the gas sector and according to official data, 97 have died since the beginning of the operation in hostilities, and these are those whose names can be published, and almost 559 were wounded, 127 were seriously injured, 213 were seriously injured, 219 were lightly wounded, 426 are now recovering from injuries, so there are ... extremely detailed data, even surnames are published, if they give permission, relatives, this is a prerequisite, as far as i understand, straw is such a policy, and it is noted that

every... day of active hostilities brings about 18 casualties, and 18 is 2-3 killed, 15 wounded, that is, very detailed information, why do you think israel releases this data, why do they allow themselves to do this, well actually , probably precisely because, on the one hand, they understand... the importance of the meaning of each fighter, this is also characteristic of ukraine, but we do not do this, based on the established approach that combat losses in the format of combat operations do not need to be shown, demonstrated , although the discussion here can be different from different points

sight, israel after all. as we can see, demonstrates his special concept of assessing his combat losses, and i think that, well, if we were to go this way, well, i don't know how rational it would be, what effect it would have on our society, because indeed , we have the same thing in losses, and in losses, well, you can actually there, even with... balling there, creating various difficulties in the perception of combat operations, but in any case, we understand that losses are also not only , sometimes not only courage, but sometimes also calculations of commanders and this factor should also be taken into account when military units do not perform their tasks, have large losses, then this should affect whether such a commander can continue to hold certain positions when his subordinates have such significant losses. well, mr.

serhiy, thank you, this is really something to think about, serhiy sgurets, lesya, you have another question for mr. serhiy, to be honest with you, you skipped, so i will leave them for next time. ok, we agreed, serhiy zorets was with us, i thank him very much for this conversation, this morning, in we're literally less than two minutes away from the announcement, a moment of silence, here again viewers continue to write that espresso... should stop broadcasting the marathon single news, well i don't know people, how, i don't know why you're in you demand an espresso, friends, well, it was not our decision , we decided to start this marathon in principle, we decided to contact, it was not we who decided that people can lie, that people can be imported, it is not our decision, well, not ours, it is our decision to stay in ethereal and tell the truth, even when the truth

a little scary, to be honest. because we believe that we are a nation of adults who want democracy, who and who have the right to know what is happening both in politics and on the front, well, because, well, if you think that we have no right to tell the truth , and the audience does not have the truth, does not have the right to hear the truth, then we fall into the same problem that general zaluzhny outlined as a small soviet army cannot defeat a large soviet army, can small russia defeat big russia, this is the first question, second, do we need a little russia here, i think no. thank you to everyone who is watching us , and now actually, let's remember everyone who has already laid down their head in this struggle for ukrainian independence, so that there would be no russia here, neither small nor big, so that there would be a ukrainian state here.

let's observe a moment of silence in memory of the ukrainian military and civilian citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.
