in a week there, from what is known, how do our fighters manage to hold on, where is the enemy possibly trying to climb? the situation is quite tense, and in fact, every day , in fact, our military repulses dozens of attacks from the enemy both in the meritopol direction and in the berdyansk direction, in fact in the area of ​​orikhov, novoprokopivka, that is, it is such an alarming everyday life, a tense everyday life in the zaporizhzhia direction, and thanks to our armed forces of ukraine in fact, the enemy cannot advance there even a single meter towards the nut. next to the same zaporozhye, at the expense of this c in general, the residents of the regional center live a relatively calm life, despite the proximity to the front, and in general it is possible to plan at least any activity, including economic activity, including the issue of the educational process that is being discussed today, i mean the transition to a mixed forms of training, to offline training, these are very important things that actually happen only at the expense of heroism and at the expense of endurance of our military on the frontline, you know, the enemy is in principle not far from zaporizhzhia, well yes relatively speaking, but everyone there is talking about

a possible enemy attack on kharkiv, about a possible enemy attack on chernihiv, but no one is talking about an enemy attack on zaporizhzhia, this once again proves that the enemy obviously has such plans, and he even , that we will take kherson once again, say the russians and their collaborators, but they say nothing about zaporizhzhia, they obviously understand very well that they have little chance here, but again , these little chances are provided by the armed forces of ukraine, i once again i urge you to support to contribute and join in... helping the armed forces, because they actually save our lives , well, now it's over, well, it's also a good thing that ours hit the technical staff of tokmak, this is according to the frontline news, i told you so briefly, but now about the occupied territory, temporarily occupied, there the enemy continues to actively try to put his russian passport in the pockets of the residents of the occupied territories, and they will also create such military clubs for teenagers, i understand that in the future they want to...

train ukrainian children , well, ukrainian ones teenagers to the war for russia, and not necessarily in ukraine, maybe somewhere they still want to fight, and there they are looking for instructors for these groups, what kind of phenomenon is this, maybe there is some information about it, that they are there for the hitler youth, sorry putler-youth is being formed in the occupied territory? it's a pity, this is not the first time, in general, their activity in the re-education of our youth, our teenagers, in fact, the organization of militaristic activities, because there, for sure, from the first places... in the occupations, only they tried to take control of the educational process, activities in the direction of the militarization of our youth actually began to emerge, in fact, this is not the first such group or such an action to teach our children to fight, and above all, we understand that in addition to some applied skills, there is actually propaganda work there to change the consciousness of these children so that they understand who their enemies are, and unfortunately, they actually turn them against ukraine, in general, against everything. of the civilized world, because

today russia actually opposes the civilized world, well, we see in general very similar, let's say dangerous trends , because the first sphere that the occupiers began to control, for which they fought, was precisely the education of children, they first started by changing the educational process, adding propaganda subjects, and then they tried to change consciousness by adding military activities , and in general, if we see even these things that are connected there with some chatpots or... there with their , again, some actions there to identify people who disagree with the regime, first of all it arises precisely in the youth environment, that is, they understand that the youth environment , on the one hand, is the most protest environment, on the other hand, these are those children, these are those teenagers who can be formed into supporters of their occupation regime, so these are very dangerous trends, and we need to understand how we will fight with them, that is , we must not lose contact with the parents of these children and try to keep in touch if possible. with these children, well,

the russians want to make such modern janissaries out of ukrainian teenagers, out of ukrainian children, they are not inventing anything new, yes they tried to make all the empires disgusting in history, the persians did that, the turks, the ottomans did that, the russians actually do that, here we are a little distracted from such sad news, but in zaporizhzhia they plan to sell at auction a monument to lenin, this is the monument, which stood in the background on the background. dniprohesot is so huge there, or is it some other monument we are talking about, namely the one that stood on the square that was called lenin square on the avenue that was called lenin avenue, i am very pleased that in general all these communist the names, the communist archaic already of the channel , let's say in history, but this lenin, it is stored in one of the communal enterprises of the city of zaporizhzhia, the citizens of mysna created a petition to sell it, because it is there, let's say, its composition... it is a composition, this, well

, semi-precious materials, bronze , and so on, and to direct the money to the needs of the armed forces of ukraine, in fact, it will probably be the most logical and the most symbolic for... and everyone else who says that ukraine was created by lenin, that's right zaporizhia lenin serves to add resources to the armed forces of ukraine, which are destroying the russians on our zaporozhian land. now let's talk about housing restoration, i have another question , they write that this housing restoration is happening slowly, it is also relevant for zaporizhzhia, let's say for kharkiv, for well , to a greater extent there mykolaiv oblast, let's say kherson oblast, somewhere these are former strikes, and the enemy about... continues to beat, why is the question about money, and again, is it money from the central budget, well, the state budget, or is it money from local budgets, what are the needs, in general, what are the challenges facing reconstruction, the first priority reconstruction, i am not talking about any large-scale constructions now, at least for the primary reconstruction of housing, please,

but the reconstruction process, it is actually quite complicated, look, we have to distinguish between reconstruction on the battle line and in more remote areas, if we say today about the conditional cities of walnuts, the field there... the women's community, these are communities on the line of contact, in fact today it is impossible to restore houses there, not state money, not in general, state regulations do not allow any restoration, except in fact emergency repairs, such as breaking windows, roofs, replacing windows with some simple wood, and in fact today communal services, communities and international donors also do this, this is what concerns the contact line, the key activity today and a larger volume, just these are communities that are far from the line. zaporizhzhia, the communities of the zaporizhzhia district, which were attacked by the russians, including rocket attacks. today , processes are underway on high-rise buildings in the regional center, in fact , some works have slowed down because tenders were canceled procedures, some of which were overestimated, in fact

the estimates, and due to the appeal of law enforcement agencies, in fact these tenders were canceled and then relaunched, today, if i am not mistaken, work is generally underway on all objects, plus created. the commission under the regional military administration, the regional commission under the zaporizhzhia city council, the reconstruction commission, which considers people's applications for housing repair, housing restoration, etc., but this process is rather slow, because you need to collect all the necessary documents, in general, the commission must make sure that there is destruction and determine the list of funds that will be returned to the person, as for the composition of these funds, most of the funds are the funds of the state budget, this is a state program ... restoration, but also all that concerns the restoration of high-rise buildings, there are funds from the local budget and funds from some industrial enterprises, this is such a consolidation of the budget, because, well, enormous funds are actually spent on the restoration of high-rise buildings. it should be noted that in general this process is commissions are working, but we understand that

every day, unfortunately, objects destroyed by the russians are also added, private houses are added, so let's say, there will always be such a time gap between when the destruction occurred and when a person can go away have their compensation. thank you very much for participating and commenting, answering important questions. askada shurbekov, deputy of the zaporizhia regional council, i wish you as quiet an evening as possible, although we know, of course, that the enemy is trying to strike in zaporizhia, and in the city of zaporizhia, and in the region, and ballistics, may this evening be peaceful. many thanks to the armed forces of ukraine, which hold this important taurian direction, namely the zaporizhia direction, melitopol, berdyan, where the enemy is trying to push and push and push. well, in general, about the situation at the front and around the front. then we will talk with serhiy zgruts, the director of the defense express agency and the leader of the military summaries of the day column. serhiy, congratulations, congratulations to you, vasyl, congratulations to us viewers, today is the day, we will talk about what is happening on the front line, first of all, in particular around avdiyivka, and about personnel changes in the armed forces of ukraine, about the reaction of our military, about the reaction

of the world community, about all this in a moment. we are now talking about... we will talk about the situation at the front, i will only give a very brief voice, there is such a people's deputy, giorgiy mazurashu, he is the one who proposed killing soldiers for desertion and about the persecution of the cover in social networks, he was called the generator of strange legislative ideas in servant of the people, so he came out of the party's servant of the people and declared that he did not see the cleansing of its ranks, this is just news, as they say, hot, well, and now yesterday's hot news, which continues today, is the resignation of general valery luzhna from the post of the head of the armed forces of ukraine, appointed to his position oleksandr. colonel-general, hero of ukraine , and now also a hero of ukraine. i won't even ask questions here, sergey, just all the pros and cons of the risks and prospects of these changes, because let's say, now i see information has appeared on unian, and in general about

what an american expert writes: "general syrsky can change the course of the war." and which expert exactly? now is now, because right now robert hamilton says he can change the course of the war, this one. this expert, it's just me to the point that there can be different assessments, i'm interested in your assessment, well, really, the situation regarding the change of the leadership of the armed forces was decided in a difficult period, this is a decision. in my opinion , it is not unambiguous, because, relatively speaking, for me, for example, the explanation of why she was removed from the post of general was not enough deserving, because in fact all the actions of the armed forces over the previous two years demonstrated that there is trust in the general, there is a dynamic of changes in the armed forces, there is an increase in capabilities, there is a vision of the future with a focus on technological solutions and most importantly. there is the trust of the entire military environment in the general

, and in fact there is respect for the preservation of the lives of our soldiers, that is, in fact, we are talking about the fact that the hard worker enjoyed extraordinary popularity and trust, and perhaps rather political factors influenced the shift general, and not some remarks about certain events on the battlefield, because when we talk about what, relatively speaking... uh, zelenskyi's adviser talks about the fact that there were no changes on the front line, there in the south, as it was desired, that there are risks of stagnation, and so on, and that it is necessary , relatively speaking, to change tactics, in any case , i understand that there is no clear explanation why exactly zaluzhny could not fulfill the tasks that were set for now and in the future, because actually preparation for offensive actions - this is the sphere of general responsibility of all bodies. power, including the rank of the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief, so that in any case

the questions remain, and now it is extremely important that, not only her, general syrskyi influence changes in the situation on the front line, although the army is managed, of course, is rigid management vertical, but when the president of ukraine names the names of new famous generals and commanders. brigades that are to join syrsky's team, i just hope that such a symbiosis will be formed, which well, it will combine, on the one hand, the determination of general syrsky to achieve goals and victories at any cost, and approaches based on such a new, flexible experience of young generals, although in fact silsky also has quite significant experience, because we remember the holding a number of offensive operations from ... and kyiv, and two operations in the kharkiv region, and

sirsky's enormous experience in planning operations, so in any case we understand that there are both advantages and difficulties in understanding how exactly it will develop the situation in the armed forces with the new leadership, but in any case, we understand that this year the main emphasis, according to me, will be primarily on defense , fortification, defense, preparation of reserves, introduction of new technological... ways of conducting combat operations, and this will be the basis of that defense plan for the current year, although i think that this plan is shaped by the external reality, where on the one hand the limitation of the supply of ammunition, the depletion of our brigades, the lack of replenishment, all this just now mainly affects the front line, and therefore to say that general syrsky alone will change the situation in the field, i think that this is a clear exaggeration, but they say about him, again, i have no right. that's all, because i didn't fight under the command of syrsky, actually, but they write in the days that, that means, there, at any

cost, the goal is achieved, well, you actually talked about it, we understand that the price at the front is mainly either equipment or human lives, on the other hand, i clearly understand that when you are an executive at the level of a commander, let's say, operational strategic management troops, or the commander of a certain type of troops, or the commander of a certain direction, as it is one story, when you are the commander-in-chief, it is already time. war is also a political position, and therefore for certain of your steps and decisions you already bear political responsibility in the future, i think that general syrsky, even if he had some moments that are now being criticized, yes, well, i i think that in this position he will have a different understanding and a different vision, more information and possibly other approaches, i am not saying that those were bad, because i don't know, i'll say it again, we hope, but in general we understand that general syrsky is currently in the middle of this dynamic of hostilities, which in reality. has not gone anywhere, the enemy is advancing in many areas, now syrskyi had

a zone of responsibility, there he is harrying there from kupin, swata krymin, there to bakhmut, now actually the entire front line, in fact he needs the load on the general has increased and relatively speaking, we can still expect that, that he will now have time to generate new ideas, i don't believe it, i do in the fact that if there is an additional, well, strengthening of the management staff... it can really affect the efficiency of our headquarters , but i repeat, there are headquarters, and there are forces and means, if we lack equipment, ammunition and so on, then on... planning defense operations, they are all equally limited by the resources we have today, and regarding , well, syrskyi's new team, in fact, zelenskyi spoke there, hiding names that are respected, known in the military environment, now in the near future like me i understand, the appointment of the commander of the ground forces and the chief of staff

will take place, that is, there was already such preliminary information that... the chief of staff will probably be brigilevich, he is the former or currently active chief of the territorial defense forces, he actually has good old relations with syrsky, he is a good planner, i think that it is precisely the right hand for the commander-in-chief that is extremely important, because, relatively speaking, how shabtala was such an ideal planner of the operation that ensured the success of those operations, which were logically provided by zaluzhnyi, i also hope... will become such a support for syrsky, further work with new approaches, this is exactly the idea of ​​these new commanders who will be appointed to positions around syrsky, well, we will see who will be the commander of the ground forces, he will probably already be the commander of the strategic

direction, khortytsya, maybe it will be the current deputy minister of defense pavlyuk, who also has... considerable experience in planning and conducting military operations, it is very important that of course the general can lead military, military arguments are at stake, when politicians will tell what they do not want, politicians want victory, politicians want the psycho-emotional state of society to somehow begin to improve, but unfortunately, there is a reality, here it is very important that syrskyi understands that this position requires him to make political decisions, and he is, after all , a person who lives up to his name. and he is directly responsible for people's lives, yes the president in general, but he is directly, here is just an interesting story, you said, here we are literally a few weeks, serhiy said that it is necessary to endure a few more months, when this offensive of the enemy runs out of strength, and then there will be some kind of, maybe a period of lull or regrouping, and i just think that maybe, of course, it would be worth waiting until the end

of this offensive the enemy is precisely with the hard -working, because this story reminds me of it, once i played for the national team of ukraine for such a short time, there was fumenko... we had to win all three and then there was a question of who to make coach from britain , they wanted to invite someone else, someone else, then they decided that let he already remains and all three matches were won with the same coach who was left, then he left, but the question is that sometimes there are changes, you think that something will change now, but it may not change, i wish syrsky success, but it seems to me that maybe you think differently, that it is probably worth some intermediate stage it was time to give it to the hard worker, well, in fact, the limit of these stages is enough. complicated, just now we understand that the enemy started his third offensive along the entire front line for 850 km in october, and is pressing along the entire front line, using the advantage in in ammunition, in manpower, in aviation and so on, this dynamic is still continuing, the enemy has certain reserves, and therefore precisely in certain areas of the front, well, i do not rule out that

we will have to leave positions there, and this is actually the inertia of this a situation that... including the slow resolution of many issues, this also applies to the preparation of fortifications, there and the provision of mobilization, the preparation of reserves, that is, these factors were accumulating, and of course, with all due respect to him and and the same syrian, who will now bear the main military rather than political responsibility, because i think that the political responsibility now lies with the president of ukraine, who as supreme... golkumanovych decided to ensure significant personnel changes, but i repeat, significant personnel changes in the period of hostilities, in a decisive period, one way or another they can, well, in a certain way slow down the adoption of certain staff decisions, in view of the rubbing of a new team or the transfer of information, or the transfer of responsibility and so on. so now

these two factors overlapped: the enemy's offensive, the inertia of hostilities in the format in which it is going. and a change in personnel decisions, and here the expectation is also to avoid stagnation and to create some new expectations, now there is no need for new expectations, it is necessary to ensure the amount of defense, first of all, yes, that is, fortification, reserves, find ammunition, there should already be no work here only silsky and rather not silsky, namely those of our military and political leaders who have contacts with our western and american partners. actually, i think we're, uh, two important issues that i want us to discuss, the first is mobilization, by the way , the government made a decision today, and the fact that the tsk will work both day and night, well, it is obvious for night residents, of whom there are... health i have the strength to rest somewhere at night , maybe now there will be more frequent meetings with tsk workers, especially since people are not registered, this is important, well , again, this is my opinion, but it is important

to look at the mobilization in terms of demographics , because once again, when retaking territories, we must understand that we should not to lose the perspective of the existence of the ukrainian nation in general and depopulation, because then this is not a victory, the disappearance is actually in the perspective of such a nation as the ukrainian ones, so serhiy to... interesting figures that show very threatening trends, in fact, if our directors, directors will now show this age-old pyramid, in fact, it demonstrates that we have to understand the stock of our mobilization resources and an understanding of what we can count on, but now we see, well, such a demographic pyramid, and that this is where this tree is from below. has the thinnest support, so this is the thinnest part, this is actually the age category there on the left side of men

aged 20 to 25 to 30 years old, that is, in fact , we understand that now we have an extremely small number of male population, who are between the ages of 25 and 25, there for 27 years, and actually then the question arises: that the main burden of hostilities will still be borne by men there, say 40 plus, that is, this is the picture that is currently reflected in almost all combat brigades, and when we talk about that the workload is extremely difficult and older people cannot stand it, then in fact we do not have the opportunity to rely on the younger part of the population, because the age pyramid, well, it is just where... the issue of maintaining personnel is the first priority and today, by the way sirsky pleased me in principle, because when he

hid tasks, he talked about the fact that the preservation of life, personnel, rotation is an important priority, that is, in fact, these tasks that were set, well, were reflected in understanding, the commander-in-chief, and the second - this is a technological component, without technological approaches, we, relatively speaking... will not ensure parity in combat operations with the enemy, and then the understanding that the technological solution, starting from these robotic platforms, drones, the use of long-range systems comes out to the fore, and we really have to, well, look for solutions in the afterburner mode that allow us to conduct effective combat operations, to ensure an asymmetric advantage over the enemy, it is extremely difficult when we see the real picture of the field a battle where the enemy uses ammunition, cabs, aviation, and i am starting my strategy to completely redraw the defense line, using the advantage of artillery, of course talking about the fact that we have to ensure a technological

advantage is correct, but we need to find more temporary opportunities, how to combine it and achieve of the result, well, yes, because we understand very well that if this narrowing becomes too narrow, this whole trunk will simply collapse, and because these people have to give birth to new people, but we have growth up to 10 years, then from 10 and below there is a sharp drop again. we have to understand that we as a nation have to preserve ourselves, because then why fight for the territory if there are no people on this territory, and plus, well, there may be a situation when people will emigrate even more and not return, that is, well it is important to win back the territory, but it is necessary to approach it very wisely in order not to lead again to depopulation and to the lack of prospects for recovery in the nation, well, it is quite real, it is demography , it is mathematics, as they say here, it is not necessary be, you can believe anything, but never numbers.

we can't mobilize, the enemy is trying to mobilize them and all this part of the population has left, it really narrows the mobilization. potential, and on the other hand, the issue of the defense of ukraine still stands , which means that then non-standard solutions are needed, and more active help from partners, because now is such a difficult time, when delays in the transfer, first of all, of ammunition, they affect the on the front line, and it's just, well, frankly, annoying from the point of view of the attitude of politicians primarily america to the challenges that are facing us now. in front of ukraine, despite the fact that they promised that they would be in favor of providing assistance under any circumstances, well, our enemy has 130 million, that's about there, god forbid we have

23, it's just the same... numbers, here you can believe in anything, but there is a reality, and the crisis in avdiivka, can you call it a crisis, by the way, what are the prospects of such a difficult situation, well, the word crisis, i think that it is somewhat unusual for the military categories in any case, yes , but really the situation is by the way, the avdians are a challenge even now for the new team leading the armed forces, although we understand that this is the result of many things. which relate to timing and miscalculations on the part of the ukrainian side from the point of view of the preparation of forces and means for the conduct of hostilities there , and actually the dominant group at the current stage of the potential of the russian offensive is a group which, well, we know that about 45,000 enemy personnel were concentrated there , and now the enemy puts the main emphasis on the attack just right. to the main

supply line that feeds our grouping in avdiivka itself, the information is such that already during these two, even three days , it is extremely difficult, combat operations are already underway in the urban development of avdiivka, reserves are being used on the ukrainian side, and the enemy is now preparing more reserves in order to press precisely on this area , in order to... make the use of logistical routes as difficult as possible, i.e., military operations will be repeated in the north of avdiyivka, a little higher in the north above the very kokhsokhim, well, actually along the entire arc that now surrounds avdiyivka, so that i i do not rule out that the reality is that we will probably have to... ensure the withdrawal of some

of our units and find the right options for redeploying to the next lines of defense, i think that this military leadership understands the same in view of the excessive superiority of the enemy, i would like to be wrong, that things would be different, but for now the dynamics are alarming and critical enough, as you say, well, i will confirm your words by saying that even the head of the president's office andriy yarmak, who is not a military man, but he will say that the situation is very difficult but - he says that, he says that ukraine will strengthen its positions at the front. well, let's believe it. thank you sergey. thank you, vasyl, thank you to our viewers. we hope that the new command of the armed forces will provide effective results on the battlefield and find ways to improve the situation. well, to

continue our military theme. the plot, again, so that you can learn more about who the hero of ukraine, colonel-general oleksandr silskyi is. for several weeks now , the issue of changing the leadership of the armed forces of ukraine has been a topic of speculation and has contributed a lot of misunderstandings. the announcement of the resignation of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhny, as it appeared , was denied by official representatives of the authorities, however, on the evening of february 8, president zelenskyi did replace zaluzhny with oleksandr syrskyi. until that time, he led the ground forces and during his long military career distinguished himself in significant russian-ukrainian military operations from the beginning. syrskyi received twice as many awards from the president as even a diligent one. what is known about the new governor? let's watch and listen. oleksandr syrskyi was born on july 26, 1965 in the village of novinka, volodymyr oblast, russia. in 1986, he successfully graduated from the so-called soviet westpoint, i.e. the moscow higher military command school and began a military career. the new commander-in-chief

has passed. all ranks from platoon commander to deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces, started in 1986 as a motorized rifle platoon commander. already in 2002, he was appointed to command the 72nd mechanized brigade. as of 2013, he was the first deputy head of the main command center of the armed forces of ukraine and was involved in cooperation with nato. thus, in november of the same year, syrskyi, on behalf of the ministry of defense at the nato headquarters , discussed changing... changed the ukrainian army in accordance with the standards of the alliance, with the beginning of hostilities in the east of ukraine, syrskyi headed the headquarters of the ato, was one of the commanders during the battles near debaltseve and uglehirsk, and also coordinated the bars group, which covered the withdrawal of ukrainian troops from debaltseve itself. oleksandr syrskyi was awarded for this operation order of bohdan.
