half of the military, the russians used 9,500 missiles and almost 14,000 drones for strikes, and the most interesting thing there is actually how our air defense forces were destroyed, that’s all, and he indicates that, for example, for calibers x55- 101, r500, otrk iskender, percentage of damage 67%. for x5935-31 missiles - this is 22 percent of the total damage to them, as for drones, 63% damage to missiles, and so on, there are even such types of missiles, there is point v, eskander, of which only 4.5% damage, and finally sam s-300 s-400, which are already working directly near the front line, there seems to be only 0.67. lesions, what

conclusions can we draw in general from these data that syrsky made public, such that can be useful and interesting, and what can this data indicate? this data can be manipulated by our western partners in order for them to provide us with more assistance, regarding this data itself, it should be noted that this data is collected for the entire period, that is , the first full-scale invasion, during the period when we did not have any air defense systems , except for their own old ones soviet and here it should be noted that the classification of missiles, here it is necessary to separate active, to separate cruise missiles, it is necessary to separate by classes of missiles, ballistic missiles must also be separated from cruise missiles and different types of ballistic missiles, the same kha22 disconnect from iskanders and other means, therefore, in principle, it is actually assembled here into a general system, which requires a more detailed explanation, because in fact, first of all, there were no ... air

defense systems that could intercept ballistic missiles, and we now have very few systems that can intercept ballistic missiles, and they need to be increased, secondly, we must remember that it was difficult for us to intercept a cruise missile during the initial mass attacks due to the small number of anti-aircraft defenses, we did not have any cutting edge, we did not have those that were patriotic there was no system more modern, which could, which would significantly improve... the possibilities, now we, if we take the last periods, it should be noted here that we had times when our western partners did not keep up or did not pass on to us means of destruction, i.e. missiles for these anti-aircraft defenses, so it is important to show this analysis to our western partners, to explain that we need and demand more from them, because they can provide help, and definitely thank countries like... denmark, the netherlands, they

actively help there, both the united states and britain are actively helping, but in any case it is necessary to understand and continue to communicate with our western partners about increasing the possibility of providing air defense means, and about the possibility of using long-range missiles on the territory of the russian federation, that is, increasing the geography of application and increasing the nomenclature of application, because we have good examples of the application of complex application, for example, air -based and ground-based missiles at such airfields as bilbek, for example, in the temporarily occupied crimea. we have seen the effectiveness of using a comprehensive approach, and what the result was. and in the same way , it is necessary to work on most russian air bases in order to make it difficult to advance or cut, to create cutting off the logistics of the russian federation, which will lead to the strategic loss of the russian federation. well, in the end , the very figure of 1,200 objects affected, well, it can be a little sobering, that in... 2.5 years

of war, this is a big enough number so that you don't think that this process, when they hit in one direction , can be infinite, it cannot be infinite, of course, right now i am at the danish-ukrainian defense forum, and we are constantly talking about this with our colleagues, and it should be noted that the military of the danish defense forces note that such dedication from u... they are just unexpectedly impressed, but nevertheless, they are ready to help, they are ready to help ukrainian companies that are engaged in military technologies, but we definitely need to work, actively work, because we will only be able to defeat such an enemy , if we unite with our western partners, who will help us, for example, by providing certain weapons, and we already have our own experience, we see how, for example, our bepolads fly at a distance of 1800 km, we have our own... development of means

of electronic warfare that protect our military, so in principle there are prospects, but there are problems, because we see how russia uses a large number of these same missiles, a large number of guided air bombs, a large number. the cannon fodder of its personnel, which it is, at the expense of which it advances along the front line. can we say right now what could, well , increase that amount of knockdown, or we're not going to reveal those nuances yet, i mean, what kinds of weapons were there that could help? of course, we are constantly talking about it we say that we need about 20, 25 patriot systems, we definitely need at least three thad systems, which are anti-missile systems, or... the israeli arrow. by the way, here, regarding air defense systems, it should be noted that at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, some european countries united in the initiative of heavenly europe, this is about the 41st countries that united at the expense, and there are, for example, not only

european countries, turkey is also there, and they are creating a unified air defense system to protect against russian aggression, and in this the initiative includes such systems as patriot, the israeli arrow, another system, that is, it creates a certain message for our diplomats that it is necessary to join this system in order to be able to implement what mr. president said about the possibility of intercepting missiles by our western partners, i think that if ukraine joins this initiative, it will be a powerful step, because firstly, we will be able to get more weapons, and secondly , we will be able to provide our experience to our western partners, and because... none officer with even countries of nato in no way shot down the kh101 missile, did not shoot down the dagger missile, did not intercept the same skanders, and we have such experience and we can share this experience, but then let's exchange on equal terms, that is, we are talking about creating a single system air defense from europe, and

it will not be joining nato, it will not be joining, for example, some european union, it will be a separate new legal structure, which i think a psychologist. will embarrass putin with his appearance. well, let's wait, maybe this initiative will really be so new breakthrough let's get a little closer to the front line, well, there is an impression that our defense forces seem to work a little easier, and our planes fly better there in the kursk region, and it seems that it is better to break through the russian anti-aircraft defense there, is this really so correct impression, but if... compare, for example, with the donetsk region, and if this is really so, then what, what is the difference, and let's start with the fact that russia has been scaling up the production of offensive weapons for a long time since 2003, in russia did not

burn like warehouses burned in ukraine weapons, and they produced more weapons for attack, but less weapons were produced for their defense, that is, anti-aircraft means for... protection or other systems, and this does not give, well, it does not show that it was easier for us to enter the territory of the russian federation, because, of course, this is a very good operation, planned, as we can see, it clearly allocates resources, allows to create certain problems for russia to protect its territories, that is, they lose them very quickly, so i would note that this is probably the skill of our of the military, which led to to such to such an effect and will lead to even greater ones. effects and will allow us to have certain advantages in this direction, well, in the end, well, it is known that during the advance on kursk , the ukrainian army managed to blind russian reconnaissance drones with the means of electronic warfare, shoot them down in fpv from

the sky, it helped a lot, but of course, this situation will not last long, it will change, and in particular, it seems that such reports appeared that the russians started... to use leading drones, that is on the wires, they were talking about them since march, there was even some kind of uh, well, they showed that something like that was, well, maybe it was such a test, it is not known, but uh, on august 20, uh , such screenshots appeared that show that allegedly involved already these drones in the kursk region, it was august 12, later, what can you say, they were really involved, do you have any information and... what is it about in general, how is it different, can it become something a new stage of unmanned warfare, but if so, it should be noted here that in fact such drones are russia has been using for a long time, we've seen what they, how they use them, here you have to understand that

it's not just an ordinary wire, it's an ordinary fishing line, an optical fiber that allows them to spread it, that is, the coil is carried directly by the blue drone and allows it to be spread. on its way, it is clear that the range of such drones is limited, but nevertheless, for example, for the first line of battle, they are dangerous enough. and can be actively used by the enemy, taking into account the fact that this drone is controlled by a wire and it is difficult to work by these means electronic warfare, but there are solutions for the physical destruction of these drones, i think there will be more of them, and this is not such a huge problem, because the war is dynamic and it is always necessary to have at hand a means that can work in advance, and from our side can you are such wire drones used? certainly, on our

side, much more interesting means are used, which surprise the russians, the truth is that for the last time in their lives. and if we forecast how it can develop further, that is precisely from the point of view the situation of drones in the kurt region, because after all, it is not the territory of ukraine, there may be nuances of some kind of connection, as far as we can hope for our dominance, that is, in unmanned systems or vice versa. to have something about russia's attempts to dominate there, if we supply drones to our military in time, if we collect, donate, help, the state will help in this direction, then of course there will be no problems, and we will be able to actively knock out the enemy's position, even just at the expense of the same drones there, because in fact it is a high-precision weapon that allows you to work at a large... at short distances and hit the target, regardless of where the operator is, so in

principle the prospects are very large, and it is promising the direction that will continue to develop, new opportunities will be created in order to counteract, for example, the enemy's means of radio-electronic warfare and actively work despite the work of active means of radio-electronic warfare against the enemy. i thank anatoliy very much hrabchynskyi, why did you join us and tell us about these nuances, i hope that... we will meet on this matter, we have a short break now and then we will move a little more to the kursk region. events, events that are happening right now and affect our lives. of course, the news feed reports on them, but few know what is happening. it is necessary to understand. antin borkovskyi and invited experts soberly assess. events, analyze them, modeling our future, every saturday at 1:10 p.m., with a repeat on sunday at 10:10 a.m. studio

an espresso event with anton borkovsky. journalist who joined the armed forces, political expert who became a special agent, taras berezovyts in a new project on espresso. the real front is a thorough analysis of the main events. reports, comments of leading specialists and experts. ah... politics from a major of the armed forces. how to understand alarming news and distinguish the truth from the hostile and false. the real front program with taras berezovets every saturday at 21:30 on espresso. yes, we continue the chronicles of the war, and vasyl galamai, the commander, joined us platoon of the third battalion of nakhtyagal. well, straight from the chicken coop, as far as i understand. congratulations, mr. vasyl. good day well, first of all, thank you very much for being able

to join us. well, and secondly, well, tell me more about your impressions. well, let's start with the fact that this operation has been going on for two weeks, and probably you can somehow tell how it is changing, how it is now, what it looks like, the resistance of the russians is there, there is no, strong, weak, who exactly, er, there,... appeared in the kursk region, who do you have to deal with? first of all, i want to note organizational points, because it is important to plan how the operation will begin, how it will continue, then and further, it was very successful, in my opinion, the first stage was planned, i hope that since none of us knows to the end what the final goal of the operation is, what... the plan of the higher military command is very interesting, powerful, and its implementation

will be successful accordingly. a large number of prisoners of war is an extremely good aspect in our case, because they can be exchanged for prisoners of war who have been in russian for a long time prisons, in particular the guys from azov and other units, this will give us... an opportunity to make up for what we lost, because in order to return the guys , we need an exchange fund, no matter what, the better, it means, in terms of ranks, clans. the better for us, because the russians will want to return them, the ukrainian-speaking population of this territory is a pleasant surprise, i thought that despite the fact that these lands have been part of the russian federation for 100 years , there will be no ukrainian speakers here, but no, there is quite a lot that happened personally , in principle

at the moment, if briefly like this, well... here are these the prisoners that there are and in general those with whom we now have to fight are mostly conscripts, can we already say that some other units appeared there, our unit did not take prisoners directly in terms of its activities, but all of them are prisoners, what other units are facing, this is of a different plan, there are definitely officers there who, if conscripts are with them, then... that is the greatest resistance, and they also took captive boys with whom we communicated, these were representatives of the chechen republic, yes, their republic, akhmat unit, and also talked to the guy, who said that they were captured by the fsb, so what

is this plan, well, if you can compare it with some other tricks of the front. how would you say, in terms of the work of, for example, the russian artillery, russian aviation, what does the ratio of our capabilities look like to theirs, on the course, i mean, if you compare in terms of, as for me, as for me, there are more cabs here than in the part of donetsk region where we were, there were a lot of cabs, yes, but... but it turned out that it was not too large a number, there for a day or another the shorter period of time that can fly, it is from unpleasant moments, then now only recently appeared fpv enemy drones, their number is growing so dynamically, today even we almost got into

trouble with them, we were lucky, but... . then the artillery fire increased significantly and in general the resistance of the infantry units increased, that is, i understand that a significant, very significant replenishment of these types of troops and weapons approached the enemy in these areas, which added a little difficulty to the advance, but i want to give to understand to our viewers that... every brigade, every battalion that advances here, it makes the greatest possible effort to make it happen qualitatively and quickly, and to say that it is an easy walk, there are moments when it is easier for the guys, there are moments when in the interaction, all together, you have to work well against the enemy, and after that one or another defender surrenders, who is very well

prepared, unfortunately, not like we do in many areas of the front. and tell me, is there such an echeloned defense there, i mean some fortified lines of defense, was it exclusively along the border, i.e. in what, well, under what conditions are you actually fighting, do you have to take some line of defense every time, or is it just already going on, well , there in the houses, in the landings, so what well... the borders were strengthened the most, yes at that time, because systematic work was carried out there for a long period of time, it is not only engineering structures in the form of a ditch, anti-tank, there is a fence made of barbed wire, the so-called dragon's teeth, it is also a multi-level system video recording, various tools,

of a more complex type, a simpler one, and a very large powerful one. the strongholds are underground with concrete firing points, completely with a branched system of corridors of rooms, warehouses, well, that is, very, very large, in the future it is already with advancement to the level that is now, these are already newly created systems of most fortifications, and there are where they arranged ambushes, it is already dug up, dug up, dug up accordingly by the soldiers, quickly - at such points, when they flowed, you can see a large amount of ammunition, a very large amount, which is interesting, that they have winter gloves and winter hats among their ammunition, bu. were there, i don’t know why, but they were there, they thought they were going to stay until the winter, i don’t know, i can only state the fact that,

what i saw, they threw down certain types of weapons and ran away, well, how, how where, how on which area, i say, over time the resistance is only growing, because according to all the data we hear from official ukrainian sources, there is... a transfer of manpower, equipment, i would very much like a very large amount to be transferred here military moscow and equipment from donetsk, in particular the direction, in order to reduce the burden on those units that are persistently fighting the enemy further there. well, we from your direction of kursk have now directly received such a large number, when it is clear that the russian equipment is impressed there, but eh... well, it can be seen that there is really a lot of it there, or not very much, nevertheless, here is how would you rate, again, comparing to other destinations? well now, now more and

more appear, more and more, and the enemy is gathering forces, this is also evident logistically, when a larger the number of trucks, that is, we will only see fierce battles in the future, as far as i'm concerned, that is, in fact, everything... you think it's just beginning, it's just the beginning, not the end, right? well, i think that we will see new stages of development of the operation, and it will be reported from official sources. and i will note once again that thanks to a certain regime of silence and secrecy, few people knew about the beginning of the operation, when everyone was transferred to this aspect, and i hope that we still have the final goal. it is not known that it will also be a surprise for everyone, but what about your personal impressions of the war on the territory of the enemy, what are your feelings about it? well,

let's say, the ukrainians showed the whole world that when you were attacked, and soon it has been 3 years, yes 2.5 years of full-scale war, not counting the previous enemy expansion. yes , during the atos era, we can not only defend ourselves, we can boldly enter the territory of a nuclear state, make such a lightning offensive, lock in and continue to advance, while we do not violate any international norms, which is very important, because our world partners would then block aid, without which it would be much more difficult for us, and the fact that... a commandant's office is established in the territory of the kursk region, it will help comply with all international norms, rules, the introduction of wars and in particular the treatment of civilians,

because ukraine, which recently ratified the roman statutes, which will help us to condemn the enemy faster, and ukraine has always emphasized that we wage war honestly, we did not attack anyone, we were attacked, and we are forced defend, and one of the most effective form of defense is attack. and unexpected, brave operations that inspire society and support the army, because the army needs these successful cases, they only add motivation, well, we have, by the way, already such a plot from the territory of the kursk region, in particular, how did you look there these are their defense structures, let's take a look at them, maybe we can even discuss something there , let's go. this is the first line of defense of the russians in the korsk region, now everything is

under the control of the armed forces of ukraine, let's see what's inside, the last one. they fled in a hurry, leaving everything that was here, including their belongings, and detailed plans and surveillance schemes.

there are indeed many russian military personnel in the kursk region, but there is a nuance, they are either captured or just like that.

what you essentially said when you said that in principle, a lot of digging, many kilometers, but well, as far as i understand, for now it is about digging in on some new frontiers, it is not going yet, so for now, well battles that there is no stabilization of the front line or something like that, the armed forces of ukraine are trying to expand the bridgehead as much as possible,

i emphasize and... we don't know the final goal, if it has a much more interesting plan, which i hope, we will all do our best to advance and implement it, at this stage there is further, further progress, and every day, i will find out from fellow prisoners, of course, not in the same number as in the first days, however, there are, the advances are going, the battles are going. and it is important now to carefully and correctly follow all tactical plans, well, to protect the personnel, but to carry out the tasks. well, i thank vasyl galamay, the platoon commander of the third battalion nakhtygal, who joined us from the kursk region, and i also want to tell you that we are preparing for independence day, on august 24 , watch espresso special project,

bright people in... times, we have prepared interesting stories about heroic people, exclusive interviews with viktor yushchenko, svyatoslav shvychuk, serhii plohiy, this is a very famous historian, much, much more, already at 10 p.m. a documentary film 10 years of war, all this on independence day at espresso, from eight in the morning until midnight, so be there, stay with us, for today we have that's all. well, actually, stay with the espresso tv channel. watch this week in the judicial control program with tatyana shustrova. release of knyazev. why did the ex-chairman of the supreme court lose his position for renting an apartment? to release knyazev from the position of judge of the administrative court of cassation. but who in the vrp helped

the prince not to answer. for a multimillion-dollar bribe, the record holder is simply for first closing cases. greetings, you are watching judicial control, i am tetyana shostrova. in four years of work, the higher anti-corruption court has already passed more than 20 verdicts in corruption cases against ukrainian judges. almost all were accusatory. however, many high-profile cases with multimillion-dollar bribes and abuses have not yet been completed. moreover, the servants of themis, who ... committed serious crimes and are involved in high-profile cases, have not been dismissed from their positions for years, they continue to receive hundreds of thousands of salaries every month, even in the middle of the year, without prosecuting the ex-head of the supreme court, vsevolod, who is suspected of corruption the high council of justice dismissed the prince the other day not for the biggest crime history, a multi-million dollar bribe, and for the extremely low price of the apartment he rented in kyiv.
