with olga len. tuesday thursday at 17:15, repeat tuesday friday at 22:00. i congratulate you, friends, all viewers of the tv channel. but it's a new week, and we're starting our two hours, well, let's probably start with the fact that another attack took place on our country, we saw that in the morning daggers, shahedis were flying again, so it's a new week, you know, it's already traditional for our of the country begins with shelling by the occupying state of russia, pro we will talk about this and about many other things, well, let's start with you, of course, and... with a survey, a traditional survey, today one of the main topics of our program is

actually the possible accession of ukraine to nato, international observers, experts are talking about this this is also being said in ukraine, official representatives of nato are also speaking about it, in particular the new secretary general of the north atlantic alliance, so of course we are asking you today whether you consider it possible to join nato before the release. occupied territories of ukraine. traditionally, we offer you two answers: yes or no. if so, you can vote 0.800 211-381. if you think not - 0800 211-382. i would like to remind you that all your calls are absolutely free, whether from telephones or from your smartphones. so join our survey. already at the end of the current hour, we will tally up the intermediate results, at the end of the next one. final, so please be active. well, as i already announced, we will start,

of course, with the issue of the security of our country, the issue of the fact that we have a full-scale invasion, the war continues and the almost daily shelling of our country continues. ihor romanenko, founder of the charity fund we will close the sky of ukraine, lieutenant general, former deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. mr. igor, we are glad to welcome you on the air. espresso tv channel and novy tizhden program. glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes. i congratulate you. mr. igor, perhaps we will start with another act of terror against our country. this morning, three dagger missiles from mig 31k bombers were again fired at our country. russia tried to hit kyiv and starokostyantynov. according to yes, according to the data of our air force, two missiles were

shot down, one missile hit in khmelnytskyi, well, in general, we have been observing how many for many days and weeks, probably for the last two months, even more, there are drone attacks every night, by unmanned aerial vehicles, such as shaheed, and not only shaheed, in your opinion, here is this air... terror, what it shows, and why right now russia resorted to such, one might say, a daily act of terror against our country, a night terror, i emphasize here, well, again, about the dagger missiles, actually, why exactly now and what do you think the russians wanted to attack in ukraine, well, you asked a question and almost answered it, e. the possibilities are growing for the russians from from the point of view of the means of air attack, and this

refers to the manifestations associated with e-e that they are scaling up the production of unmanned attack vehicles, and those that come from - iran, this state helps them, and those that they produce themselves . in tatarstan, but also in other places, and thanks to this they have there is an opportunity to strike with drones, dozens of them. in addition, due to the fact that the impact is daily, then uh, that means they are accumulating their missile weapons, there is a concentration of strategic bombers of aviation, such as the tu-95 ms, uh, that means the tu-2

m3, long-range aviation , bombers, as well as... entered the sea for a long time , there were no such number of ships and the possibility of launching up to 48 caliber missiles, that is, it is very similar to the fact that they are preparing a more massive strike and the use not only means unmanned shock devices, and not only shock devices, they use their soldiers, who already produce all the enterprises that we discussed with you and used... those as reconnaissance drones, shock drones, as well as choked drones, the so-called choked drones target, due to the large number, they overstrain our air defense system, and make it difficult to carry out the task in the hearing of all systems, anti-aircraft

defense forces that destroy, mr. igor, but if we are talking about plans, you said that russia is preparing to larger attacks, in fact, such large-scale attacks, full-scale and the simultaneous use of the entire range of air weapons, have not been seen either since august 26 or, if i am not mistaken, since the fourth of september, when they hit lviv, well, just as quickly. the cold period is suitable, that is, the period when the heating season will actually be. do you think the russians are still preparing massive attacks on energy infrastructure? and when, roughly when, again in your opinion, to expect these massive strikes that you talked about, including the use of

caliber rockets. in order to organize the event. the means of forming a massive air strike, they have in fact already accumulated , taking into account the pause that exists. now the question is how they will be used in this potential of rockets per shahedny. i would say so, we remember the massive strikes on the 26th, for example, when there were more than 100 unmanned aerial vehicles and large rockets. number was applied, and the question is how these means of striking will be distributed, i.e. launching a missile from, well, actually, an iskander missile, which is adapted to a flying device mik3, and that's why this missile is already called a dagger, and due to the fact that it

is used this way, it becomes hypersonic, that is, speed. becomes more than five waves of the speed of sound per flight trajectory, although during the final stage of the flight its speed decreases, and therefore, by the way, those who monitor this situation in the air fight should pay attention to the fact that the missile was actually lowered and destroyed for the first time kinjau above kyiv. this, well, during this day, two such rockets, exactly on the flight path, where its speed was more than five makhiv, that is, it was hypersonic, about the fact that the russians said that at the moment it is impossible to solve it with the means we have, because before that the destruction took place at the final stage, this implies that the means of change

should be the pet missile complex. .. directly near the cover object, where the speed decreases, if the probability of destruction were greater, here it is an achievement of the anti-missile defense of the defense forces of ukraine that two missiles from three daggers were destroyed along the trajectory that passed through the anti-missile defense system over kyiv, and precisely on those sections of the trajectory where they had a very high speed. i would also like to talk to you about the operational situation in the eastern and southern directions. on september 20 of the fourth year, british intelligence recorded a new record of average daily losses of the russian military and occupation forces, 1,271 people killed and wounded. the previous

such record was in may, in at the same time, we observe that almost every day, according to the data of different people, it is possible to refer to the same deep state resource, which every day shows that russian troops are advancing. well, if we talk about the current day and the current week, where are the russians most concentrated, what is their priority in terms of advancement in the near future, mr. igor? for the defense forces of ukraine , the offensive impulse and the attack on pokrovsk were shot down, then the crowd had to regroup, and because they met a counterattack. up to three brigades of ours were deployed in this direction, one way or another they slowed down the offensive actions directly on pokrovsk,

so they were reformatted and the accents they made an offensive on kurakhova and on uglidar, unfortunately, they managed to capture uglidar and there they are advancing north of it in order to prevent our defenders from gaining a foothold on the second line, in addition... they are operating in the northern direction along this line of uglidar kurakhova and the final goal is still pokrovsk, but, so to speak , heavy battles are going on around selidov, which means that they have already covered this city from three sides, and the battles in the center of the city are being fought in the ataretsky style, that is, where there is a difficult situation, a large intensity. conducting hostilities, i.e., since the enemy failed to move, if they were to advance to capture pokrovsk, they chose an approach of such an operational type of action

as to enter it from two sides, that is, from the south we characterized everything, from the rooster everything from oglidar kurakhov and the further direction to pokrovsk, as well download from the northern direction, but pokrovska. is central, as it opens up relevant prospects, so at the moment this is one direction, in addition, they are concentrating their forces and means on the zaporizhzhia direction, there where battles were fought last year, we managed to liberate the territories of the robotin area in the liemsky ledge, which means that they are conducting offensive actions, training and concentration there. their forces and means, in addition, they are striking with guided bombs directly on zaporizhzhia, that is,

such an offensive formation is forming in the direction of zaporizhzhia, and it is generally clear that they want, let's say, to capture the regional centers again, they once did this with kherson at the beginning of the war, as we remember, our defense force. recaptured this regional center and it is important for putin in principle, nevertheless, to reach such a regional center there in the direction of kharkiv, sumy, zaporizhzhia, dnipro, and therefore appropriate plans are being formed, means are being concentrated, that is, they no longer have the strength to advance in all directions at the same time due to the loss of weapons, equipment and the availability of ammunition, as well as losses. prosh forces, but separately in separate directions, they are allowed to do this, they concentrate there and continue offensive

actions. the kursk operation, the armed forces of ukraine have been receiving a bridgehead in the kursk region for almost two months, along the border with our country, along the sumy region, along the border with the sumy region, and volodymyr in particular. zelenskyi, the president of ukraine, summed up the first two months of the actual stay of the defense forces at this bridgehead. let's listen to what the president of ukraine said. regarding the kurdish operation, today is two months of our military operations, an important phase of the war, something that has helped a lot and continues to help our country. the ukrainians proved that they can squeeze the war into russia. and with sufficient support from our partners, we will be able to put pressure on russia exactly as needed to the russians felt that the war would not give them anything.

mr. igor, what do we have now in the kurdish direction in kursk region? if you look at it in general, on the one hand, we are not moving much, on the other hand, the russians are not moving either, although certain shifts are local. how do you assess the current situation of the defense forces in the kursk region, what are the prospects for all of this, should we move on, or is that all? is it worth considering any possible other options for staying in these territories? on the kursk defense forces of ukraine conduct active mobile defense, but the enemy has formed a fairly powerful grouping of troops, about 45 thousand mechanized units, as they

say, marine units. airborne troops, and this enabled them to organize counter-attacks in four directions, two from the north, one from the west, one from the east and one from the south-south -east direction, thanks to such actions, the enemy forces managed to take control somewhere up to ten settlements, most of us saw the attack and advance east, in addition , in some directions they broke through the so-called dry corridors, for example, the grouping that was limited by the diet and our troops, in the area of ​​meyttkin and glushkov, and... our west of the new

tactical level grouping, the passage through the border and the advance of the gluzhkovo and to the strength, but it has not yet been possible to achieve, let's say, the capture of these settlements, because there, too, they managed to organize accordingly the defense of the enemy and intensive combat operations are being conducted, in general, at the second stage. it the second month, it must be said that thanks to this kind of actions on the part of the enemy, they managed to partially, let's say, take control of those territories that were fully controlled by our defense forces, and in total from 1300 km2, those that we managed to in the first stage release, and now it is controlled according to various estimates, well,

somewhere... up to 750 km, this indicates that the enemy has partially managed to advance from a smaller controlled territory, and there are such battles, mobility, it goes from defense to offensive and active mobile defense is exactly what it says including offensive actions in the directions we talked about. perspective, well, there is, so at the end of the first stage, we managed to form a buffer zone, that is, in the area around the strait, where at one time the russians received such a military hub, that is, the forces and means were concentrated there, which later operated in kharkiv, on in the sumy direction, and from a military point of view, we need to keep it, because we need to pay attention to...

the launch from the keel is launched by unmanned attack vehicles, the russians, one of them is a launch, that's why here is the luck to which we if they do not reach, they are used to strike the objects of the defense forces of ukraine and ukraine as a whole, they must be contained, and we have the appropriate asset for the possible, perhaps. of the negotiation process, unfortunately, we actually have only one of them, and it is important to receive it, in order to have the opportunity to enter these negotiations from a stronger position, which are already increasingly pushing us there, including our allies, if near the end.
