5:30 am
to produce more weapons next year, what objective weapons can ukraine produce on its own and for what purpose, more precisely, will these weapons be enough for ukraine, which it can produce independently, i will say right away, ukrainian weapons are enough, the weapons of the allies will not be in this phase , probably never , in excess for sure, on the other hand, we have our own... defense industry system, where, in fact, more than three dozen or even four dozen enterprises are engaged in the production of, let's say, rocket salvo fire systems, we also have very fine a fixed release system, for example, the same anti-tank weapons, the same mortars, and small arms, of course, which we have and are releasing. struggle, i am talking about
5:31 am
such weapons releases, which, let's say, have in ukraine either a full release cycle, or almost, or almost full, but we also know that we have, let's say, enterprises, the same rain metal, those bayraktar itself, the american companies that cooperate with ukraine, let's say, in the joint production of equipment. that supplies of equipment, on the other hand, we perfectly understand that everything, what is being produced now and what is planned to be produced this year is a need, and it is a need, but in order to change the course of events on the battlefield, it is necessary to establish not only massive, but also cheap types of weapons, here in particular this..
5:32 am
. concerns unmanned aerial vehicles, of course , which is very important, that, for example, in females, as part of the same security forum that took place back in september of this year in ukraine and signed more than 20, at least this is even officially stated, as we understand , there somewhere , contracts with international arms manufacturers have probably been signed in secret, about which no one is talking and will not be talking and this is not announced, and this is... right, because this information that is freely available, well , in fact, it is probably no more than 20 % of the total reality, of the total realities of what is happening in the arms market or in the actual international negotiation market for the release of weapons, because it is also important to understand that if, say, russia cannot mass-produce new prototypes or new types of weapons, but with on the other side... the system of restoration of those
5:33 am
samples of post-soviet weapons that they had in terms of tanks, bmps, especially motor vehicles, and even the same strategic aviation, even if they equip one of three or four planes there, but in any case they, unfortunately, strike and strike in the rear, of course the emphasis will now be on the artillery. on unmanned aerial vehicles, well, on aviation, but again, this is best known by the ukrainian command itself, the commanders-in-chief, who very necessary decisions need to be made now, because the war and the battlefield are constantly changing, in fact, if we entered the phase of the war at the beginning, when we worked mainly with the russian ... side, let's say, aviation and
5:34 am
missile launches, and we had an emphasis at the beginning wars, especially in directions that , say, were not included in the ato zone, had an emphasis on anti-tank weapons, close-range air defense systems and portable complexes, now we already have the opportunity and there is a need to additionally build up these same means without air defense . already at the patriot level, the battlefield began to change, because in the air and on the ground they began to transition, not even dominance, but , let's say, the same unmanned aerial vehicles began to strongly influence the battlefield, while russian aviation, let's say, is now gradually losing dominant positions on the battlefield, because even their attempts to replace artillery at one time with helicopters, and...
5:35 am
rockets all the same, although they launch them, but they cannot release them in such a large number to, say, turn the tide of the battle or even destroy the table our objects critical infrastructure in order to cause panic or take control of our energy systems, then of course they will also now try to harm us massively, in terms of the mass of the damage and the fact that the enemy is getting less, i'm talking about artillery now, this is just this information, which periodically appears in various western media. for example, there are about the millions of shells that appear in russia, either from the allies, or i don't know, somewhere on scrapers, millions directly, ah, no matter how much it is leveled by the mass destruction of the barrels themselves, starting from may, more than 500 every month,
5:36 am
taking into account the fact that the russian defense-industrial complex can open cans, well, there are around three hundred, that is, since may they are going into the red, but here it is already... it is significantly felt from what you see you, from what they tell you, is it still not significant, the destruction there of 600, 900, as in september, yes, barrels per month, enemy, you very correctly noted in terms of barrels, so the wear and tear of russian artillery is, and they are even trying to partially replace old types of tanks, the te54 barrel artillery, because there is wear and tear and there is damage, in addition, the types of projectiles that they brought there from korea, even from iran, even there from some countries, they actually caused damage to russian barrels, because although the caliber would be the same, but the principle
5:37 am
of release is also different, let's say regional or state changes that were made to the structure itself. round of shells, that the koreans, that, it is meant, the north koreans, that the same other allies, even more so, russia itself, the very nomenclature of 122 shells have different years release, the same artillery installations are slightly modified, although under the same name, but depending on where they were produced or under license, of course, what is important to understand and take into account here is that... the russians are now more and more switching to towed artillery, and this, in turn, loses mobility, it increases the number of servicemen, the need for servicemen, this is taking into account the fact that these are more soviet, older types of weapons, and it is easier to detect them,
5:38 am
but they have them en masse and of course that they there will be them to use, the other side of the coin is counter-battery combat, well, here it is absolutely for... even the russians themselves agree on this, that since we have, as it appears, the actual artillery of european countries, and it is many times better than russian or soviet, we have the means to actually detect enemy artillery, they are there, and in addition to this, consider that ukraine has always been famous for its artillerymen, artillery school after school, so we do not have an advantage. in quantity, but we have an advantage in quality, and here it works in terms of parity, regarding millions of projectiles in modern conditions of war, i will tell you frankly, these are just loud numbers for the actual civilian population, because in the grand scheme of things
5:39 am
, you can shoot a million, it can be done in a month or two, it is not such a huge number, if in fact taking into account that during the day, let's say, each side of the party can release five. thousands, it all depends, and maybe 15, it depends on the intensity of the fighting directions, of course, what is here and you also know that the most important thing to take into account is that, in fact, everything above the hundredth caliber is actually artillery, and here it is necessary to take into account the moment of what artillery shells russia may have, whether it is, for example, 100 mm or 100 152nd well postra'. calibres or there 205, of course, what are these calibres in fact, especially 152 is extremely popular and necessary for the russians, here they do not have such a surplus, especially since , of course, i say that russia was
5:40 am
complete in its time, if the control manufacturer of projectiles of this caliber and what they are currently collecting from their friends there, acquaintances, i call it... the ammunition that the soviet union gave them at one time is not something that these countries can provide for the need for a military complex. mr. ivan, thank you for these explanations, ivan tymochko, a military serviceman and the head of the council of reservists of the ground forces, has just been in touch with us, well, let's continue with the topic of what in cold dugouts and damp trenches, knee-deep in mud, in frost, rain and snow, our soldiers courageously defend ukraine at the front, despite all the challenges, be it the onslaught of enemy artillery or the assaults of the russian infantry, how our fighters support? fighting spirit and what mood prevails at the front before the coming new year, daryna dobrovolska
5:41 am
will continue. rains and bad weather turned the ground on the front lines into mud. flooded and crooked trenches. i heard something. and cold dugouts. this is not footage from a movie. such are the realities of war today. guests, may i? you can, come in. these videos were sent to us by the guys. from the 204th separate tro battalion, they are fighting in the bakhmut direction, the positions here are actually close to the enemy, we are holding the defense, as best we can, we manage to do it, no one will go anywhere, it is all done for the sake of the children, for ours. this is their second winter at the front, they have replaced warm homes with dugouts, drone operator zatiynik shows his place of work, which is both housing and a kitchen, all in one. teapot, gas burner, everything as needed, food in this box. the guy doesn't
5:42 am
complain about the conditions, he says he knows what he came to fight for. we, ukrainians, are such a people that we don't care under what conditions we fight, because we know what we stand for here. i hope it actually ends and it will be in the next one year well, that's all, and i want to... hurry home, their joy is simple today, to hear the voices of their relatives and see their children, if only for a moment via video link, moral sound, as it were, we raise our voice between shifts, we leave here with front line, then we call , man, but i think it’s normal, when you’re alive, you smile, you don’t blow, no ho no... it’s not cold, you can speed yourself up, you can be safe, you see, roller skates, blinds, logs,
5:43 am
earth, everything, hiding everything carefully from the shrapnel, and these are soldiers from the rubizh brigade, they are fighting in donetsk region, we don’t lose heart, uncle vitya, she smiles, it’s a difficult time , wow, don’t worry, ours are in a good mood, although the enemy here is also not far from them, so to speak, we send gifts back for our capital, for our cities , you can listen to the result of all that, in principle, despite all the challenges, they destroy those who encroach on our ukraine for the second winter in a row, in the break between shellings, and even during them, they continue to live, we bring happiness. orcs, we are in the dugout, let our enemy celebrate! we
5:44 am
want to cheer them on, but they do they congratulate us on the coming holidays and ask one thing, to believe in the armed forces. we are now in the bakhmet direction and we would like to wish all of us good health, inspiration, patience and victory in the new year from the bottom of our hearts. glory to ukraine, i want to wish you a peaceful sky, health, and that everyone. your dreams have come true, believe in us and we will win, glory to ukraine. these shots and words of our soldiers at the height of the war from the hottest points of the front. the motivation for you and me to stand here in the rear, not to give in to enemy provocations and throw in, and always believe and support those who stand for us and with you and for ukraine at the cost of their own lives. daryna dobrovolska. we are ukraine, marathon only news. the russian invaders are trying to advance in directions. temporal ravine, to restore the lost positions in the area of klishchiivka, kurdyumivka, and andriivka,
5:45 am
as well as to dislodge our troops from the silver forestry and advance on synkivka. this was reported in the command of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine. the occupiers did not make important successes in the bakhmut, taleman-kupyan directions have in addition, the russians use assault groups, the so-called volunteer corps. it was moved from the southern direction. involved the enemy and personal. composition of marines from the caspian flotilla. oleksiy tarasenko, deputy battalion commander of the fifth separate assault brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, is in touch with us right now. we welcome you. our congratulations. congratulations, mr. oleksiy, therefore, the american institute of war reported the day before that ukrainian forces have advanced slightly, but to the southeast of klishchiivka, to the south west of bakhmut, that is, and instead , russian propagandists claim that russian troops advanced north and east of bohdanivka in the direction of ivanovsky.
5:46 am
please tell me what you can report about the operational situation in your area of responsibility? at present, the positional battles directly to the west, southwest of bakhmut in the defense lane of the fifth separate assault brigade continue, and as for these advances in one direction or another, these are all very local tactical stories, in fact, the enemy is constantly trying to attack where there is where units from... the armed forces are able, directly, as far as i know, north of the city, they are trying to restore the lost position, or move to uh more advantageous lines through some small counterattacks, so really the line front is still dynamically changing almost every day, and such advances
5:47 am
back and forth by 100-200-300 m are absolutely normal and adequate. their tactics are this traditional meat assault of theirs, ah-ah, is it still getting more or less, coming out from the impressions of heavy equipment, the enemy does not use heavy equipment directly in assault operations, and the enemy conducts traditional or artillery training, point training. on our firing positions, or strikes with a dozen or several dozen fpv drones, and before the infantry goes into assault, it actually looks quite banal, but as we can see, it can still be effective sometimes, it all depends on
5:48 am
to the final eta, in the final case, from the quality of the personnel, if... the assault group has well-trained, motivated personnel composition, then there is every chance of success. mr. oleksiy, regarding the tactics of the russian occupiers, do you notice certain changes, or are they changing the tactics they are conducting in this direction? i would say that changes in tactics are connected exclusively with the technical capabilities of the enemy, the enemy is trying to develop in this way. just like the armed forces, something copies from us , something comes up with its own, but if we talk about the infantry and about some traditional means of impression and post-barrel artillery, then we do not observe fundamental changes, and with regard to the infantry, as you said, everything depends on the group, yes
5:49 am
is she motivated or not motivated, that is, we conclude that the national team is a solyanka after all, right? in your direction, for which you are responsible for the enemy? well , of course, because, let's say, those professional stormtroopers who were trained during the summer, who were perhaps experienced commanders there, they are already partially exhausted, partially wounded during these rather long attacks of the enemy over the last month or a half, so... well, of course well, that the enemy is already throwing in the reserves that he has left, and i think that he is trying to mix more experienced and less experienced commanders and soldiers, so it's really a mess in most directions. tell me, what about an air attack, are they still using
5:50 am
massive strike drones? if we talk about strike drones, then first of all, of course, these are fp drones, if you mean strike drones, such as our bayraktars, then the enemy does not use such at all in this direction, still from time to time, there once in a while several weeks, the enemy uses attack aircraft, and lancets too rarity. at present, surprisingly, yes, lancets were very common in the summer, and in the spring their place has now been taken. thank you, mr. oleksiy, thank you for joining, thank you, pass on, thank you all for what you do. oleksiy tarasenko, this is
5:51 am
the deputy battalion commander of the fifth separate assault brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, he was on a direct video call. and just now we are adding stanislav krasnov, he is the platoon commander of the 95th separate assault assault brigade of the polish armed forces of ukraine. mr. stanislav, we congratulate you. our congratulations. greetings, i wish you health, about , i understand, about the kupyan direction , we will talk in more detail now, please tell me what the situation is, generally speaking, in the area of your responsibility? the situation in our country is tense, steadily tense, for a long time, probably for about a month or more, there are constant continuous assaults, there are also constant attacks. and other types of weapons are already used, aviation began to be used there, large cabs are dropped, fab-500, these are
5:52 am
500-kilogram air bombs and so on, in relation to artillery, once again , serhiy and i operate exclusively with dry statistics provided by the general staff on the number of destroyed enemy barrels, are there any changes? you can’t say whether or not there have been fewer shellings, you mean enemy ones, or whether they have become more dynamic, more economical, or whether nothing has changed and everything is wave-like, yes, everything is wave-like, i am sure that in order to replace those barrels , which are destroyed by our counter-battery fight, they pull up new barrels, and not only barrels, in fact, well, we just talked about the bakhmut direction and about... about strike drones, and in particular about lancets, we talked about what now, well, at least we have this information, as soon as we received it, which , strangely enough, but the russian the occupiers do not
5:53 am
use them too actively, but what about drones with drones in your direction? in our direction, drones are used very, very actively, the terrain here is mostly forests. so that it is not appropriate to use especially lancets here, some large impact drones are used here small attack drones, enemy drones are constantly circling somewhere, well, we must give credit that not only the enemy, ours are also actively used, in forested areas, where there are large trees, the so-called wedding drones, maviks, they are very actively used also constantly circling and also constantly dropping various explosives. objects, in relation to the points, yes, the pressure of the enemy, as i understand it, berry, yes, one of the active
5:54 am
directions of sinkivka, and a little north of sinkivka, they are trying to press, only these directions are kind of key for them, do you single out any others, here in our area of responsibility, i can speak for the fact that... they move from the direction of the settlement of lyman-perzhy to sinkivka, and this is due to the geographical location, so that sinkivka is an extremely fortified, let's say, natural settlement, that is , it is surrounded by forests, swamps, some small rivers, after it the field begins and after it the dominant height begins, behind which kupinska is directly located, if they will take sinkivka, they will already have very few obstacles to take it as a hostage. control over the whole of kupinsk, but i would like to understand, then, how actively, actively they are advancing, you say that they are advancing to lyman 1 and senkivka, yes from
5:55 am
the first leman, that is how actively they manage to advance, well thanks exclusively to stability and courage of our troops, because everyone understands that they are outnumbered, the occupiers outnumber us , they cannot advance. at the moment, well, it can be traced from open sources, there is deepstate and so on, building of the general headquarters, but the attempts are very, very active, they are constantly trying to storm it, around the clock, not only technical assaults in general, there are already many videos in open sources about how they are trying to enter senkivka itself with a large number of heavy equipment directly, apparently everyone saw how 10 tanks overtook them, threw off the landing party, only five were able to leave. after a few days, i also stopped by around five units of military equipment, almost none of them returned, but it's actually not that, well, far from it... everything that's there
5:56 am
happens because the biggest, fiercest battles, they happen directly in the forest, where the infantry is advancing, in the forest there is no video of any kind that can be shown to the public, because there are trees in the way, please tell me, mr. stanislav, that they i mean, they are trying to monkey around, but they are just copying tactics or something else, about the reason, you mean... well, about the use of high technologies, it goes without saying that they copy our tactics, everything we start doing, they after a certain time attract their own resources countries, which are much more, it is clear that there are some specialists there, including, unfortunately, foreign ones, as far as i understand, and they are trying to repeat it not only qualitatively, but also quantitatively, in order to prevail over us.
5:57 am
tell me, please, mr. stanislav, did you record in the direction that is directly in your area of responsibility, these disgusting cases, such as were in the south of our country, the use of our prisoners of war as human shields, i know nothing about this , tell me, and what about tactics, i wanted to clarify, just now discussed when the bahmud direction received information that not only on... copying something, but also inventing their own, that's what they are inventing in the kupyan direction, well , they are now very actively using subversive groups, this is again related with the fact that they have a lot of people, instead of people who are destroyed, because with such active assaults they lose a very large number of personnel, they use constantly, especially at night
5:58 am
, subversive groups that attack. are there any snipers or just saboteurs who they are trying to throw grenades under the cover of darkness, of course this also leads to great losses, but this is what we do not do, because we simply cannot afford it, because we protect people, mr. stanislav, thank you very much for these apologies clarification and for your service, stanislav krasnov, commander in agreement of the 95th separate assault police brigade of the armed forces. just got in touch with us . the only news marathon continues literally in a moment at 6 o'clock in the morning and there will be news from olga hrytsyk . we are ukraine and we are working with you until 12 o'clock in the afternoon. thank you for staying with us all. keep yourselves! chevrons
