how many of these forces do they have, well, such , well, let’s put it this way, how long can they last, how much of these forces will be enough for them, because there is such a different figure that they concentrated 400 thousand personnel there, but it is already clear that well after a month of attacks , well, it is probably not 400 thousand anymore, if it is as it was 400 00, then what is it every month that there is some kind of recovery, this... it is rather interesting to consider these aspects, actually, if we take the military aspect of kup yansk, well, that 's clear, the kupyanskyi direction is an attempt to reach the oskii reservoir, this to occupy a huge railway junction in the kharkiv region with the expectation that later the offensive would be extended in the direction of kramatorsk, sloviansk, and konstantinovka , they understood this. bakhmud is a forced step, because the military... garrison, which was bakhmuti,

appeared before the threat of an operational encirclement, and we take avdiyivka, well, it is a fortified district, and it is very close to donetsk, in fact, it is fire control over the suburban territories of donetsk himself, this is the control over the yasenivka highway, the leader - it is clear, we are already taking the side of zaporozhye, it is already mariupol issues and the direction of berdyansk. they understand very well that in any case, everywhere in all directions, in fact, their attacks, this is not a unique military campaign, this is their reaction to a complex situation, and what i say, he is trying to prevent the actual threats from growing and events on the front line in such a way to carry out some large-scale campaign, not counting the forces and means now, regarding the recruitment of people, even bears for... i imagined that they would this year

they mobilized 420,000 people, of course they used that number of people in one way or another at the front, but they used them, why? because first of all it was necessary to cover their losses, and in fact this event that i am saying now is their counteroffensive, it is not a unique military campaign, it is a reaction to the situation and an attempt to seize the initiative, because in... the 22nd year, the russians lost the offensive initiative, in the 23rd they began to lose even the defensive initiative along most lines of the front, they were retreating, and for that, to actually seize the initiative and go into the middle, because by and large the entire russian doctrine, the military machine, the entire russian academic science is built on attacks, on offensives, on covering from the flanks in...

even though they have the name of the ministry of defense, in fact, this ministry is far from defense, it is a ministry that fulfills the orders of putin's aggressive policy and his rapprochement, so their, i repeat, their attempts to go on the counter-offensive are a reaction, here there is no need to exaggerate in fact their capabilities and their capabilities are so, so of course they have accumulated forces and means, but... what kind of military strategy is this, if you lose many times more than your opponent, what kind of military tactics is it, when, if according to plans or strategies, you allocate two - three days or a week to capture, already having a lot of conditional experience during a year and a half of war and again for two or three months you trample on one in each of the directions, because i will remind lemanokupinsky - this is a bakhmutyan attempt to intercept from the summer of the battle. since july

, the listener has been listening for two months, and so again well, the uglydars have been trying since last year, even since the spring, you remember, columns and so on, well, yes, but since the spring, by the way, they haven’t tried, but in the spring they were twitching there, and now they are back in that's why some attempts of offensive actions started in the area, that's why you actually see, and it lasted so long, there is a kind of expectation and calm, only they got infected. pulled up what they could pull up, restored the technical resource, took away these people whom they had demobilized, more or less prepared, because all those who attacked, in particular in fact, at the beginning, they were mobilized , they were well equipped and prepared, and now they are trying to use mainly landing forces, trained infantry and the same stormtroopers, they use them only mainly to detect fire there.

position, the bet on them is not the same as it used to be on the prisoners, that the human masses and press, press, so of course we observe the events, we look out for them. now we have to take a short break for advertising and go back to our conversation in more detail a little later let's talk a little more in detail, because there are such threatening events, well, in general, so we return after a few minutes of advertising, do tingling sensations and crawling ants arise spontaneously and disturb you? the doolgit antineuralgia complex helps to normalize the functioning of the nervous system. dolgit antineuralgia helps to return to usual activities without population and numbness in the limbs. capsules dolgit antineuralgia - help to your nervous system. damn the stairs, my legs can't walk anymore. wait, i'm

what is it, is it really a significant advance, somehow, can you describe something to us, what, what is happening there, it would be great for you to describe it. i will not be able to due to certain circumstances that still do not allow me to do this, i can only say that i believe that the russian federation and their armed forces... are not some kind of capable of combat, or they don't learn, this is a very big mistake of ukrainian society, which is very widely spread there through the mass media and on the internet, the russians managed to accumulate certain certain forces and means, to correctly build offensive assault actions, and they had certain, have rather a certain success, it is not big enough, but still. it happened, but i think that in the near future the troops

of our defense forces of ukraine will be regrouped and a certain response will be carried out accordingly, which will force forces of the russian federation to withdraw in that direction. and tell me there, well, did the russians use something like that, well, what did they not use, for example, there in the past weeks, was there a build-up of some... forces, well, that is, it is possible to explain in more detail what they have there, the forces of the russian the federations are now very good at using co-drone tactics, that is, they choose a certain area of ​​the area where they are going to carry out offensive deterrence actions and use a very large number of drones in such positions in a way that completely cuts off logistics, medivacs, any supply, and also... we use fp-drones to destroy or damage or try to completely destroy the positions of the defense forces

of ukraine . the fpv drone is still a very accurate weapon of it, if there is a sufficient number in these operators, and what we still see in the situation is that they have a sufficient number of fpv, and a sufficient number of repeaters, other means and, accordingly, forces that start these fpi-drones quite successfully, and this is a big obstacle, because if earlier ... they just went there with meat, and it was all clear, it was enough, well, it was easier, let’s say, to repel their actions, then when , in addition to human power, fpv drones plus artillery are also involved, this is such a serious complex that gives certain the results, by the way, we can now see on the video, this and from the bahamud direction as well, it is like fighters of the sixth company of the second assault battalion. it is your brigade that is hunting for

, well, in fact, separate groups of russians, yes , yes, yes, yes, it is precisely yours that are working , look, and tell me something else like this to what extent is this advancement of the russians, what happened there , well, poses a long-term danger. perspective, for example, how much danger is there for the time gap, right now, right now, from these actions that the russians are currently taking just to the north of bakhmut, well, we must understand that any advance of the forces of the russian federation, if it is not stopped in time, will represent some kind of danger in the medium to medium term, that is, it doesn't matter whether it's time or some other direction, and accordingly they were stopped at this stage, as far as i'm concerned is known and will be conducted. counteroffensive actions, but, as i have already said, the kind of advance, the kind of occupation of some area

, the improvement of one's tactical position, the position, the forces of the enemy, the enemy is already a prospect for them, and for us a certain degree of danger, and accordingly, depending on the area or the same area, it all has a high value or a low value, but at the moment it cannot be said that everything has already stopped, if russia had a complete... it does not have such an advantage, accordingly, we do not have a complete defeat and, accordingly, we also do not have a complete advantage, the dynamics of the battle are high, so it is not worth giving priority to someone, because the actions continue and nothing is over yet, we can talk about everything there, when russia is established, well, the forces of the russian federation will be established directly in some area or try to lead again after fixing the reformatting of the regrouping. will conduct offensive assault actions again, at the moment it is difficult to say, well , you don’t see it now, i understand that

the russians had some idea to gain a foothold, now it exclusively offensive actions, or how do you rate in general? i see now in general, you can say , the idea of ​​the russians along the entire line of battle is to carry out offensive actions to the maximum , as long as they have enough strength and means, well, at the moment, this applies to everything. combat reporting, the fact is that in some areas, they are stopped sooner, in some areas later, in some areas, our defense forces of ukraine switch to counteroffensive actions and resume. or not in position, that is, but in general the goal is that that for two or three weeks, the enemy's forces were activated along the entire line by the fact that they want to countertap, if they succeed somewhere, they begin to transfer a greater number of forces and resources there and push, push, push the defense, well,

that is to say, that's exactly what to the north of bakhmut, they still threw additional troops there. yeah, that's how you see it, they definitely use this tactic where if, like i said, where they have a minimal want, they feel like they can do something there, they definitely are beginning to transfer forces and means from other directions, this is their tactic applies to the entire line of combat reporting and, accordingly , the north of bakhmut is not an isolated case, or rather an exception, but tell me, is it possible to observe somewhere... any signs of exhaustion in the russians in something there in drones, in artillery, in people, is it not possible , how would you rate it? it was about three weeks ago, a certain moment when they had some problems with logistics, it also concerned more, of course, artillery supplies, bull on artillery, but at this stage this problem is more than if we

do not observe, they have a sufficient number of artillery and... supplies for them and accordingly there is a very sufficient number of unmanned aerial vehicles of various classes, from reconnaissance to shock to drops , after all, one should not forget that the russian federation is not a country that is isolated from the world, that is, if we have a mavic 3t, then in russia there is a similar mavic 3t , that is, the same one, here it is the same production, the same company, that the very class of drone device, applies not only to maviks, but also to other means. that fly in the sky , that is, russia was not isolated, russia clearly receives help from the countries of its partners, er, so there is no exhaustion so far, and as for human resources, they have always been more in terms of population, unlike ukraine and their er tactics, the fact that they use convicts and groups of diggers,

who are the direct equipment of the engineering positions of the front there, the second or third echelon, others... perform work, also the same convicts take part in offensive-storm operations as part of the storm z or stormv storm groups, it is true that there are already more groups that have served a certain period and signed contracts with the forces of the russian federation, so at this stage there is no such thing, if this had happened before, that russia became really isolated, and how the whole world was talking there, and sanctions would have happened, then of course they would have had some... problems with what with the forces, with the means, but at this stage it is not observed, but the fact that there are some temporary phenomena there in terms of logistics , on some in certain directions, well, this is a war, we manage to be in their logistics routes, it takes the enemy a certain time to recover, so again, we will then have to destroy these logistics routes, and that means there will be delays,

but in order for them to have a mass famine in the bc , there is definitely no bc. like, well, but is there a parity situation from our side, that we still have enough power of means? must replenish our ranks, the ranks of the defense forces of ukraine, boys, a very large number of boys are wounded, there is a large number the dead, those who, the guys who are wounded , some return there during... some will never return due to amputations or something even more terrible, so we need unequivocally for the defense of ukraine, this is the carrying out of mobilization measures in order to replenish the mob resource units, and all the more so that even when the mobilization begins,

it will take up to two months, i think, to prepare the personnel in... so that they all come under the tutelage from the single final unit to the coordination there under the battalions, so we don't have enough mob resources, that's for sure, and bc, no matter how much it is in principle, in war we always want more of it, because there is a lot of work, the line of combat reporting is long , and if it were needed, it would definitely be more, in terms of artillery, tanks, and also accordingly . ugh, thank you, thank you for finding time for us and for joining us, it was mykhailo kryzhanivskyi, lieutenant colonel, commander of the fourth

operational battalion of the rubizh brigade of the national guard of ukraine, he spoke with us from near bakhmutu, and told in sufficient detail about what is happening there, well, actually , let's go back with ivan tymochko , let's continue, you know, now we actually... listened to how the battles are happening now, but i would say that in this defense, which everyone is talking about, about that it is necessary to get on the defensive and stand in it, and actually from this point of view, how realistic is this idea of ​​getting into that deaf defense that people like to talk about so much? what to do at the operational and strategic level, well, despite all this, it is the best. still knows the rate of the commander-in-chief, because they really see the picture, they really know their capabilities, our capabilities, the capabilities of the enemy, well, they perfectly

assess, let's say, the reserves that can be used, that can come in the future, that are at this stage, and they are actually responsible for conducting this, both defense and offensive, therefore, it is best to hear this information from them, eh... those who go into a completely deaf defense, they find themselves, as a rule, on the side of those who take the blow, because the one who goes on the offensive is as usual , as a rule, has the initiative, that is, those who are only deaf defense, as he suggests to us, it means to continuously receive a blow and adapt to the tactics, to the strategy of the enemy, well, which sooner or later can lead to very serious and irreparable losses, here... but to react in relation to each direction separately and localize the forces , stay , if there is an opportunity to be in active defense,

if there is the slightest opportunity, you need to switch to counterattacks, because blind defense is static lines, these are lines that one way or another earlier, one way or another, the enemy will investigate, study, he will determine all logistical routes, in fact , the mobility of troops falls when they are in the middle of nowhere. defense, and this gives both pluses for the defenders, but it also gives a large number of pluses to the enemy, and if we take into account that the russians absolutely do not count on either human, resource, or technical resources, in this regard, let it be they also have their limit, but it is many times more, of course, they will try to break through, break through and break through, especially now that they are on the front line, i really and completely agree with my brother, who was the first to speak. from the national guard, actually now the battlefield, the battlefield is beginning to change and appear and a lot and will grow every time. fpv drones, there

are both tactical, operational and strategic levels, as well as the same drones that will carry a much larger combat load, the same missiles, let there be a small, small radio court at first, but we understand that the spectrum they will increase, and the deaf defense can simply turn into such a goal, which they will constantly be. therefore, it is necessary to react in accordance with the situation, and they should and will deal with it, i say, and should do it the general staff, the staff of the commander -in-chief, because they have the resources, they know where better fortifications should be built, there is a level of long-term defense, and where there are enough field fortifications, where, where, what forces to use, where the concentration of technical means, where... human resources , it's more important to just, you know, we need everyone in their place to do their job effectively, and according to the spectrum of duties, to the spectrum

of authority, and it will be right if everyone teaches the commander where to step and what to do, well, not all of us agree with you on what plans to make, and tell me , well, i also understand that the goal in the coming months is maximum exhaustion. the source of the enemy, yes, it is a derivative, no, it is a derivative goal , all subsequent events on the front line will be very closely related to the political situation in russia, it must be combined and it must be very important to take it into account, because if we engage only in military aspect, we can miss many political threats that will later affect our weapons. on our support among international institutions, this can seriously harm us in the future, for example, when preparing our offensive

operations, this must also be taken into account. putin is, in fact, a man who built the state on the triggers of symbols, putin is a man who put the political component, let's say, higher than the economic well-being of his population, and nothing in his head in the 70s will not change dramatically, i would like to still have time, you know, to discuss another aspect that is related to by the fact that ... on the night of december 13, we had such a powerful enough attack on kyiv, the invaders launched s400 anti-aircraft missiles and iskander cruise missiles, this was reported by the general staff, the enemy fired 48 h6 missiles, i understand from the s-400 complex , which are very, well , they fly quite quickly on a ballistic trajectory, and in addition there were 10

kamikat drones of iranian development, which are also... our air defense, and in connection with this, you know, well, in principle, on last year at this time there were already enough such strong attacks on the infrastructure, powerful, now, well, in spite of what, wait, well, the number of used shaheed seems to be higher, and this attack is big, but these are still not as big attacks as there were last year and not so... large-scale, or, well, should we wait for larger-scale attacks, and in general, what is worth waiting for? well, actually, it is connected with the resourcefulness of the russian air defense systems and the russian long-range strike systems, if this was preceded by mass strikes by shaheeds, they studied the ways, they tried to adapt new tactics, let's say, they tried to promote drones

along the roads. ravines, riverbeds, they tried to attract several shaheds pointwise in one direction, or disperse, change directions, work in a long time, when the plane, flight, this drone was in the air space for the maximum time before it was shot down, all this was done in order to , in order to study our air defense system, exhaust it, strain it, make us lose our vigilance, and then we at... the next strike was so modest by missiles, now they will, unfortunately, and i have to say it, well that is is clearly growing, they will build up, the situation in them is different , that even the number of missiles that the russians are currently releasing, not all of them can use for strikes, it is a lot, there are many nuances, the first and more important is that they are still forced to replenish the stockpile of nuclear weapons, the second option is that startup institutions.

and the same aircraft, the planes that they used for launches are still wearing out, in fact, the russian economy and industry are not fully able to restore the wear and tear of their planes, we are not even talking about civil aviation, even the same military, and of course, russia finds itself in front of these challenges and has to adapt and will use them, most likely they will try to improve them in parallel now... or rather import improved shaheds from iran, because that is what the russians have there they submit that they are improving, it is very, very doubtful, rather it is being improved by iran according to the conclusions, actually, according to a detailed analysis, of these planes, drones, which are shot down by ukraine, against which they work there, let's say, the air defense systems of our allies european countries, i.e. there is a trial and parallel improvement, but it is

not done at the level of iran. russia, russia is just a consumer, plus missiles. clear. well, we have come to the end. thanks to ivan tymochka, head of the reservist council of the armed forces of the ukrainian armed forces. well, there will be news on the espress tv channel in the future, so stay with us. how many peaceful ukrainians died due to enemy mines, when ukraine will receive the second patriot system from germany, and what to expect from the meeting of the heads of state and governments of the european union. greetings to all viewers espresso, annaeva melnyk is with you and yours.
