will announce a new $375 million military aid package to ukraine, essentially the largest aid package sent to kyiv since may, and likely to include air-class munitions, land for f-16 fighter jets that will allow ukrainian pilots to hit targets far from the front lines and the zone actions of the air defense of russia, as well as ammunition for haimars, patrol boats, armored cars, shells of 155th, 105th, calibers, and germany also handed over a new package of military aid, which, in particular, included tanks, leopards, 10 00 artillery shells. that is, as if this is enough, but if we look at the perspective, how much it can help us, after all, well, i am not talking about turning even the situation on the front, but holding back the russian advance. well, this, this aid package, it's here and

now, as they say, that is, it meets the needs that are necessary now in order to conduct hostilities, and that, let me draw your attention, now we say, you said it , and in principle it is, that it is one of the largest packages in terms of cost, yes for the armed forces of ukraine since may of this year, let's remember last year, what were the sizes of the packages then, there was 1 billion dollars there. it seems that on independence day there was 1.2 billion dollars, well, the amount of these packages was in , let's say, monetary equivalent, and they were more frequent, that is, the previous package, well, it was specially designed so that it would go as a gift for the holiday independence, that is, on august 24, and last year there could be once every two weeks, packages could go, well, at least more often than now, and this is actually it...

it leads to certain reflections and certain questions, why in this way now the aid has become so disproportionate, let's say this, and there is still an american election ahead, and there is a question about the $6 billion that remained in the budget, which must be used, that is, how they will be used, when it is still necessary, that is to be decided, and now this issue is being resolved in the united states of america, so here it is. pay attention to exactly this, returning to your question, this, this, just such a package for in order to maintain the pace of hostilities and provide for the needs of the armed forces of ukraine here and now, he replenishes the needs, ammunition and so on, well, for example, there are not a couple of patriots there yet, although if you look at the unspent money that is there and which can be spent, then they would probably cost that much, there are some... several

divisions of patriots, well, that kind of thing, but all this, you know, leads us to the fact that, after all , we probably have to understand it as some kind of reality, reducing help from partners and to understand what the ways should be to ensure our own needs, well, at least some, perhaps, well, our own ability to produce some types of weapons or some non-trivial ways to obtain imported weapons. it is necessary to think about it, this is what all suggests, it seems to me, to these thoughts as well, well, it was necessary to think about it a long time ago, first the war, it was necessary to think about it, well, well, fortunately, now they have started to think about it, and we see the effect is so useful, it is both the use of drones and strikes on warehouses of russian arsenals, i want to point out that even if we were given permission to use western missiles at full range, that is deep into the territory, then these missiles... that our partners supply us, i

mean atacoms, i mean storm shadow and scalp, they have a radius of action of up to 300 km, respectively, the warehouses that have been hit now, in the tver region, in particular, they are located at a distance of approximately 500 km from the borders of ukraine, even during the last year we fired these missiles together, purely technically, since the radius does not allow tactical - technical data, so obviously we are now already seeing the effect of our developments, which help us to hit the formations of not... long ranges and there to hit airfields, strategic aviation and hit other objects important for the conduct of war in the russian federation, we do not have no alternative, except how to develop our own production, if we develop our own production and can put into operation the same ballistic missiles that volodymyr zelenskyy said, he said that there are ballistic missiles at the test stage there is a ukrainian missile that has already passed this test, and our neptune, which is being tested and is already being actively used at... objects on the territory

of the russian federation, then we will be able to simply not ask anyone for permission, we will have our own missiles, our own capabilities , we can strike anywhere, however we want, and confront our partners with the fact that there is no longer an airfield or anything else, so we have no alternatives, alternatives to the use and development of our weapons today, i i agree with you, yes taking into account those zahos, those, let's say, signals that are now coming from the west, and we see, at least in particular, this saga, and otherwise i am a saga, i cannot call it a saga yet, about permits for the use of western missiles on russian territory. yes, i also think that we should not count on any opportunities that western weapons give us, because all these missiles have a longer range, but when we see them in ukraine, maybe we will see them someday, but it will not be tomorrow, and for it to happen tomorrow, you have to do your part, well here

there are absolutely no options, let's talk a little bit about the front line, because there are several such important directions, and now it is... obviously the uglydar direction is emerging, and what is the threat of this particular direction now, what can we have there in the near future , because, unfortunately, the situation looks like this, that uh, the advance of the russians near the coal miner is too dangerous, i would say, and the loss of the miner can become uh... what can we actually face? well, near vogodar, you and i will soon face what it is the city will be abandoned. well, i won't be here, let's say, without shabkozakydat sentiments, i 'll say it as it is, but now we obviously see

the map of vogodar, yes, the situation around this city, we see these red arrows, they are directed to bypass ugledar, that is, from west from the northeast. and from the east there is an attack directly on the city of vogodar, and these bars, they are now closing, and with each, let's say , day, the situation worsens there, so i am not surprised, but right now we are seeing the video, it is directly the bombing of the city itself, well, but in the city i don't think that there will be battles, that is, there will be no advance there, as it was in avdiivka, in bakhmut, and so on, that is, the city will be surrounded, and it is now going right to the encirclement, there is a threat of encirclement, and the question arises, will there be a wave from there on... the troops, and this is the heroic 72nd brigade, heroic with three signs of the district, because they held this city for a very long time, they say that they stood there for 20 months without rotation, imagine well, that in itself means something, they destroyed a bunch of

weapons of the russian army there, that is, the russians are there put probably several brigades that we under that agreement, but unfortunately it happened in such a way that during the whole summer they pulled under k achieved there a numerical superiority, a numerical majority and together with the use of aerial bombs of adjusted cabs, they are now achieving those advances that now there is, and it must be admitted, and what after that, what after that, well, because the vogledar has been lost, there are still big cities to cling to, well, i would say that there probably aren’t, or i’m wrong, you’re not wrong, there are very few people there points for which it is possible to organize a defense, i am not ready now, to be honest, to say where this line of defense can pass, since we do not know where, to what positions the ukrainian troops will retreat, well, honestly, that is, i am not even now i will not invent, i will not engage in science fiction, the consequences, the consequences here can be as follows,

first of all, they are in the logistical plane, that is, if we look at the map, we will see that the positions on the bugledar they allowed, so absolutely correctly moved. control the volnovsky district, a er, specifically, this is the railway that passes there, and this railway, it, the railway, it is important for the logistics of the russian army, if we add to that and remember that they built an additional railway branch there in the south of ukraine in priazov, if we retreat from the udgudar, we will lose direct fire control over the volnovsky district and, accordingly , over this railway junction, and then the russians will be able to significantly improve. its logistical capabilities in this direction, that is, this occupied crimea, this is the azov region, and southern donetsk oblast, and zaporizhia oblast, and further on, where this railway runs, and it is a rokadna railway, actually a rokadna railway, it goes towards crimea, but a rokadna railway or a rokadna, a rokadna, a rokadna

road, a rokadna highway, it is very is helpful in terms of logistics, well, look, maybe this is a bit of a general question, but we can see now, and the advance of the russians under the spotlight, everyone also knows about pokorovsk, but there is also a dangerous story in the kupyansk region, when they try to get to oskil river. it will be such a different line of lines of defense, if the russians succeed in this, it is some kind of preparation for something, it is some kind of fulfillment of some political tasks of the russians, that is, what, what is global, what is the global plan? let's look at the map again, the kupyan and lemanokupin direction, let's say this, that is, the advancement of the oskiv track, the creation of a bridgehead on the oskiv river, on the river. in order to advance further, to advance in the direction of kupinsk, kupinsk is logistics for the donetsk

region, and lyman and further advancement, from lyman and beyond, is a threat to sloviansk, i.e. the north of the donetsk region, all of this is part of their plans to capture the donetsk region, this is a military-political goal, we understand it, and this, including, if we are talking specifically about the kupinsky direction, is also an informational and psychological goal, i.e. ... they lost this territory when we had a counter-offensive in the 22nd year, just in september. er, and the main thing is that when we combine both the ugledar and the pokrovsky direction, well, it's just a bora, but it doesn't step on the bora now, it's a little off there will be some kind of offensive, and there is sand, right where from above, from above we see such a gut appendix, this is where they are trying to advance from the sand. advance further into the ostiv river, to the ostiv river, and there intercept the route from

borova to kupinska, and all this falls into the convoy, that is, we now see vlugudar, we now see kurakhove, we now see the north, south of the pokrovsky ledge, the nevel pocket, yes called, the nevelsky ledge, then we go to selidova, then we go to pokrovsk, morinograd and along the route to kostyantynivka, chasiv yar and so on, i.e. it all falls, a general offensive, all this falls in theirs in theirs. intentions to seize donetsk region, and now they are doing everything possible to complete this task. in order to find some positivity against the background of, let's say, this negativity, and there is positivity everywhere, i can say that they do not have enough strength to go to selidove, pokrovsk, borinograd, and the south at the same time, so , on kurakhove, and toretsk, so again. they are pressing there, but not the way they did it before, they don't have enough strength because we do we are currently conducting the kursk offensive operation,

and large reserves have been thrown there, that is, there are 40,000 personnel of the russian army, and these 40,000 could be used, we understand where, that is, in the pokrovsk direction, and now let us imagine what we are talking about now we would talk to you that these 40,000 would now be in the pokrovsky direction, for example, somewhere in the porakhiv and ughlodarsk directions, or somewhere, that's obvious. it is clear, that is, the goal in principle is kramatorsk, sloviansk, well, the same pokrovsk, that is, in essence, the section is to go to the border and then the dnipropetrovsk region, by the way, that is, if we let them go to the border, then in principle it is already a threat to the dnipropetrovsk region, well, unfortunately, we already have a little, i would not rush to the znitrov region, in fact, by the way, pokrovsk is of economic importance, it is also there, well yes, yes, of course, it goes without saying. uh, thank you, it was

columnist denys popovych, now we have to go for a short break and come back, after that we'll talk a little more about the time of ivar. tingling, numbness, bother you, the doolgit antineuro complex helps with normalization of the functioning of the nervous system. capsules dolgiit antinevro - help to your nervous system. beresnevya has 20% discounts on combi mushroom in pharmacies, plantain, bam and savings. fm halychyna. good music - important news. in the hands of a specialist, the belladonna medicinal plant, so dangerous in nature, turns into belastezin. an ally in the struggle. and against spasm. belastezin is a drug with belladonna extract. with gastritis and sharp

were joined by oleg kalashnikov, press officer of the 26th artillery brigade named after general roman dashkevich. i congratulate you, mr. oleg, thank you for joining, glory to ukraine, to the heroes, glory, you know, i will ask you first, well, about a week or two ago, you said that in the direction of chasoya, where your brigade is, somewhere, well, about 20 attacks daily, and on at that moment it looked, well, a little less than on those there, as there was then the pokrovsky direction or something like that, is it preserved... now this dynamic, or has something changed in your direction? well, during these two weeks, it changed, the dynamics, there were days when there were about 5 to 10 direct assault actions, today, these last days , we can observe that the attacking actions of the enemy are somewhere

around 10 per day, that is, there is no such thing as significant.. . a significant constant, however, the intensity is maintained, the tension is maintained, the fire is maintained damage, well, in your direction there have always been some very strong and, well, let's say, dangerous russian airborne brigades. well, if we take it from the summer, not right now, then we really could have stopped, how the 98th airborne tenth brigade at one time was moved to the kharkiv direction, namely vovchanskyi, suffered battle hardships there, lost combat capacity, was restored and returned to us, too we can look at the separate long-range assault brigades that were

present here at one time, it was three brigades, and we see that they are also being moved, that is... this process with regard to the elite units of the russian command is ongoing, but there are really constantly such brigades, as well as the same two-staff separate rifle division, there is a division of the 102 rifle brigade, they are constantly present in our direction, that is, we even see that their zones of influence do not change, there is simply some movement, and also from time to time we can observe, what some... other elite units sometimes appear here, then they emerge somewhere in other places, and this is now mostly also some infantry assaults, as in other directions, do you have your own there? features with the use of technology? well, if we take the use of technology, then there are no peculiarities, from time to time, well, this is now during

the last two months, there are such cases when they try to attract armor, directly during the assaults, suffer significant losses somewhere around 70, 80% of the advancing their technique is golden, is destroyed, and they switch to infantry assaults again, that is, today we can... we can say that usually it is infantry units that attack us, and small groups, in some directions there are two to four men, in some 4-8, well, they can so to the platoon, looking at how they solve their problems there, and what about aviation, because for a very long time during the yar times they bombed heavily, and well, again, does this trend continue, they use the aviation component directly, but already.. . not at such a pace, not at such a pace load, as it was before, if earlier it was spring, the beginning of summer, we could increase a very significant number of cabs,

fabs, which they used to destroy our structures, our ee on our cities, directly where the personal warehouse, tried to fire strikes, so today their number, not even today, but since the month of august... their number of use has decreased very, very significantly, at the moment they are also trying to use unguided air missiles, well, this is a kind of replacement for them kabib, but of course, this is not the same level, however, mortar fire damage, fire damage with the help of fipivdrones remains at such a high level, and also the artillery systems directly involved in them, that is directly, barrel artillery and mlrs. mr. oleg, please clarify the situation with the crossing from the northern side of this zone of chasovoyarsk,

through, well, what was stated there, as if some russian units managed to cross the channel and occupy something there, but did it happen or not happened and to what extent it is exactly the same. does the general defense of the time gap threaten, because it is no secret that this was the goal of the russian troops, to move from the south and the north, to take them into some clutches, and they have been trying to do this since april, and in this regard, they somehow advanced in the implementation of their for, well, this is the direction of kalinivskyi, this is the immediate new microdistrict, it is there the sivredskyi donets donetsk channel, no... so to speak, underground, and there is a certain amount of space where you can try to storm directly on

the ground, that is, there is no such artificial obstacle , as the canal itself, here we are constantly observing their attempts to cross the canal, they are trying to do it, well, they tried to do it with the help of armor, with the help of a mechanized component, we could literally observe it about three weeks ago. they attracted about nine units in this direction, but they were stopped, and today we see how literally in small groups of two men, there two to four men each, they are trying to imperceptibly cross this very zone, somewhere directly on the right on the west bank of the canals, try to hide and wait for them to accumulate little by little, however... this neighborhood is very destroyed, and it was destroyed directly by the russians themselves, and somewhere to hide, they do not have such a good

area, so they are discovered and destroyed, however nevertheless, they manage to make some videos there, convey to their command that they crossed, well, how to report, crossed, to say that they were able to make some kind of bridgehead in order to develop their offensive, itself... from the right on the banks of the canal, it is not possible, well, look, it was unexpected, well, not that unexpected, it was expected, but nevertheless, the activation of the russians there, for example, in the area of ​​kurakhovo and ugledar, turned out to be very rapid and their advance there was very rapid , now we are also observing a very large activation in the kupyansk region, an attempt to advance there through the stallion to osko. how do you predict in your direction, do the russians have the strength, and is there any concentration to try in your direction now

to activate well, if we take it as of today, plus or minus for a few days, then we will not see such an intensity of a more intensive attack, rather we will observe it, because after all, if we look at other directions, there they are really intensifying, there they attack a larger number of people, there they use a mechanized component, in our direction today we will most likely observe about... the continuation of their assaults directly on human resources, which they are trying to use as much as possible in order to to preserve the equipment, that is, to say in the coming days that there will be such an increase in assault actions, as we, as you noted, in these two locations, there will not be, well, in the near future, that is, there may be some kind of, you know, well, how to say, it will weaken somewhere, it will strengthen in you, because... in

principle, as long as the russians need time in order to realize their further plans, as you see it - in the long run, in the long run we can expect that they will will strengthen the group in this direction and will try to squeeze us, moreover, to squeeze not only us head-on along the front, but to try to take them in a pinch, because the times remain a very high priority for them. direction, because chasiv still, no matter what, is at the highest elevation in this region, 200 m away, during the time of the ravine, you can already say that there is an agglomeration at the bottom, it is konstantinivka druzhkovka, kramatorsk, sloviansk, that is, exactly from this donetsk theft, it would be profitable to introduce fire damage with the help of artillery systems, also, if they

could press the times, they could... to gain access to the operational space in order to advance further, and there are also reasons related to logistics and other reasons, but our entire front is interconnected, and if we take even the pokrovsky direction, it is our southern flank, we also depend on how events will develop there in order to orient ourselves, how the enemies will then act in our direction, that is, it is all between. itself a single whole, but in the long run, yes, the enemy will try to advance us, because the times also prevent us from to the administrative borders of the donetsk-luhansk regions, which were declared just before the start of their russian svo. well, mr. olezh, from your point of view, what caused such breakthroughs by the russians in different directions? after

all, our kurdish operation prevented them from introducing their reserves as they had originally planned, that is, now they are essentially also fighting without reserves, that is, but they are advancing, why can’t we stop them, there are many of them, there are really many of them and they have a lot of human qualities, and what we don't have a lot of, well, what do we have not much, this question is clearly not for me, it is not my level, let the people who are more involved in these issues answer, they are more competent, and they have a lot of people, they still have more technical equipment, whatever there was not, but in warehouses, in their arsenals , they have a lot of soviet metal-box equipment, they are restoring it, but it is not of the same quality that it was at the beginning of the full-scale offensive, but nevertheless it is used, it impresses, it carries a mortal danger for

us, it destroys. that's why it's the same number per component, it really plays its role on the battlefield today, well, thank you, it was oleksandr kalashnikov, press officer of the 26th artillery brigade named after general hrunju roman dashkevich from the chasovoy yar district, and we say goodbye until next week, our espresso tv channel broadcast continues
