maryana, and finally , avdiivka, can we say that this is the picture that is currently observed in avdiivkais typical, well, for all... settlements that are under threat of encirclement and which the russian army conditionally placed under the gun? i think that everyone who follows has even admitted this, in to the occupying power, bahmud is not subject to recovery, solidar is not subject to recovery, and at this rate, with this course of hostilities, will not be subject to recovery, avdiyivka and all the settlements where it will be under...' the russian army, because they do not care about infrastructure , they care only about the military capture of certain territories. marian, thank you very much for taking the time to share your stories. maryan korshnir, a military correspondent of radio liberty , was a guest of our studio today, we are moving on, thank you. well, on to our broadcast joining oleksandr mosienko, head of the center for military legal studies, oleksandr, good evening. can you hear me, good evening, i do, hello, so the encirclement of avdiyivka is possible, the withdrawal

avdiivka is actually such a suburb of donetsk, literally 10 km, 10-15 km from avdiivka to the center of donetsk, and this is the closest position of ukrainian troops. actually allowed to keep under a certain control, under fire control, the administration, administrative buildings, logistical routes of the russian troops, directly in donetsk, that is, the russians even repeatedly said that the shelling of donetsk, the ukrainian the army leads precisely from avdiivka, of course, politically for putin, for other russians, it is possible. it would be advantageous to show that the ukrainian military was moved as far as possible from donetsk and, so to speak, protected it from shelling, on the other hand, from a military point of view, taking avdiivka for the russians will also have certain such bonuses, it is such an important railway station, there is a certain intersection there highways, and in general, the possibility of taking an audio recorder opens again. space for movement further west, for example, to pokrovsk, another important such cities in the donetsk region, which are curre

avdiivka now, why is it so important for russians?perational and tactical point of view, avdiyivka is attractive enough for the russians from several points of view. well, first of all, it is such a wedge, it is such a protrusion, it is actually a suburb of donetsk. ugh. and if we proceed from the fact that sooner or later we will liberate donets, then the presence of such a bridgehead, such a projection, it is quite expedient from a military point of view . to level what the front line is leveling for is to get as little as possible forces to maintain such a ledge, the longer the ledge, the more you need to lead in order to receive from different flanks. ugh, the third point is the presence of the military, the ukrainian military defense forces, in the avda people, it allows shelling, to continue under fire control, a whole series of positions, near donetsk, in donnets itself, as you know, there are both military management bodies and warehouses. passes, logistical routes pass there, that is , it is very convenient to have at a short

the occupiers have already changed the tactics of their attack on avdiivka twice, but they continue tofer huge losses, at the same time the counteroffensive of the armed forces of ukraine has narrowed to two bridgeheads in the south of ukraine, and in crimea they have again punched a hole in air defense. october became a month of numerous counter-offensives, while the armed forces of ukraine reduced the number of counter-offensive activities in the south of ukraine, the rashists on... the yaks went on the offensive along almost the entire length of the front, especially in the kupyan, bakhmut, and avdiiv directions. however traditional meat assaults under the cover of a large number of armored vehicles eventually led to huge losses of the enemy and the renewal of several monthly records of the armed forces of the russian federation for the destruction of russians. in particular, during the month our heroes lost 509 tanks or more than 20% of their total number at the front, as well as 813 armored vehicles or another 14% of all armored vehicles involved in the battles. against the backgr

barabash, the mayor of avdiivka.ese aerial bombardments, they build houses, well, just like, like houses of cards. barabash is one of many. who appeals to the measure to increase support for the f16, they are needed, we need more, i don’t know, hymers systems, and until this happens, ukrainians like igor will suffer from the russian invasion, they would tire us out with these bombs, if it continues like this for many weeks or a couple of months, then in principle, there will not even be foundations left, and the emergency services workers are also going through personal tragedies, his little daughter died last year, come on with my wife, with my mother, and they went to bed, she didn't wake up in the morning , i became more motivated by my work, i do everything possible to get people out and save children from the city and from this, from this horror. there is no end in sight to this horror, and yet the world's attention is focused on the middle east, the question comes to the fore: how long will ukraine be able to r

avdiivka is another city of bloody and heavy battles. it is precisely this road that the russians are driving continuously. now they started the third, the ukrainian defenders repulsed 35 tan attacks. in the steppe, avdiivka, northern, and pervomaisky regions. if last week in this direction one infantry was thrown to kill, now they are using heavy armored vehicles, climbing from three directions, these columns of equipment and manpower are covered from the sky by aviation. the 59th brigade is one of those heroically defending avdiivka. now they need help, they are collecting kazan for the bpl. the goal of the collection is 95,000. there are 40 such attacks. this is not, this is not counting the work of drones and unmanned aerial vehicles. the number one goal for the enemy is the koksokhim plant. then there will be a complete encirclement of the city, but so far all the efforts of the occupiers are in vain - say the military. they make certain attempts, regroup there, move there in a column one by one there with an interval and so on. as

in russia, and putin actually wants to capture avdiivka, so that his army captures avdiivka, and this as victory, well, it means in russia, in russia, they have, when they open, excuse me, a public toilet, public, and of the wooden type. there in the regional center, they invite the governor, which means that the press, television, big ones come there the number of public figures there , which means that in such a festive atmosphere they open a toilet, that means the city of avdiyivka, the approaches to it, the flanks, everything is controlled by the armed forces of ukraine, the commanders in the cities, the commander is in charge. and the troops are ready to carry out any order, that's all, all that can be said on this issue, but as, well, we see the maps, it looks like the russian... the troops want to take the avdiyivka into a ring, you say to advance intensify, we ourselves have seen what these battles look like, in such conditions, how long will the armed forces of ukraine be able to hold the city? - how much will it take, do you think, yes, i don't think so, i know, because well

, about life in avdiivka and about the specifics of leaving avdiivka or not leaving avdiivka, and importantom the ministry of defense of the netherlands, today five dutch f-16 fighters will go to romania, where the training center for ukrainian pilots. it will happen at the feteshti air base, and the netherlands took the initiative. with the initiative of creating a corresponding center and provided for this purpose from 12 to 18 f16 fighters. slowly, but thank god it is. well, now more important and interesting news from my colleague anna eva melnyk. anyu takes over the baton. with the pleasure of antina, the news team will tell about the most important things, in particular, why hungary promises to block ukraine's entry into the eu. be with us. additional systems were put on combat duty nasams from international partners, volodymyr zelenskyy announced this based on the results of the supreme commander-in-chief bid. the minister of defense also reported on the arrival of ammunition

koksokhim, but considering the fact that the russians are even for the rashists themselves, avdiivka part of their puzzle called the big offensive in the east with a deadline of december 31 , 2023 to occupy donetsk the area, which judging by them is unlikely to be put , let's say so, in the schedule, and on the other hand, our military command clearly considers its actions precisely as such a large strategic campaign of struggle for the initiative that obviously based even on the same military logic, to take some units from the south, continuing the assault operations there, instead transfer these units to the avdiivsk direction in order to create an appropriate density of defense there and make it so that there is no question, for example, of withdrawal from evdiivka, so here , by the way, just to talk about such a large general campaign of struggle on the initiative and within this framework, i asked zatvatology to discuss some specific areas that concern the south, well, that's what i'm talking about. before we go to the afternoon, we will talk about avdiivka in general a little l

they also managed to gain a foothold on the tericon towering above avdiivka, as well as approach the, along which the line now runs. for the first time, the front was in an impenetrable defense in the north of the invaders for a week moved the emphasis of the offensive to the southern flank area of ​​vodyanye and opitnoye, but could not achieve substantial success here, except for advancing several hundred meters in the area of ​​the quarry to the northeast of vodyanye. meanwhile, it is becoming obvious that the storming of the coke plant will be the culminating battle for avdiivka, for which the final preparations are currently underway. instead, they were able to read the zsu. to attack the russian redoubts on the southern outskirts of the city in the direction of spartak donetsk district and throw the enemy back several hundred meters. now the main task of the russians is at the crossroads and advance in the direction of the villages of stepne and berdechi to cut logistics into the city through the village of orlivka. in contrast to bakhmut, with which avdiivka is now often compar

russian troops advanced near avdiivka. analysts say this the american institute for the study of war, the portal of deep state analysts, as well as russian pro-war bloggers. in particular , the ngpvedka telegram channel writes that the russian military broke through the defense of the armed forces in the south of the city near the so -called promka. telegram channel var gonzo writes that in addition to success in the south. russian forces seriously expanded the control zone near the railway in the north of avdiyivka, near krasnogovka and came close to the industrial zone of the coke chemical plant. they say that fighting is already going on in this area. analysts of the ukrainian deepstate project confirm the successes of the russian forces in the north near the industrial zone and in the district villages of novo-kalynove and vesela. they say the situation there is difficult. and they also write that russian forces advanced near stepovoy in the north, between this settlement and koksokhimi. battles continue near the facto

, she has been fortified for many years, avdiivka itself and the vicinity of avdiivka, so the commanderything possible, we calculate the situation in advance, so there will be no surprises for us, in any case, so that the enemy does not come up with something. and even this article of our commanding officer, which came out about the truce there, we completely agree with it , and at the same time we say that what we are doing... and it is very, very nice, we are not talking about it now we say what, what intentions, what we do hard and know-how in order to meet decently, in quotes, i say decently from the enemy. mr. sergey, many of those who comment on the article of the commander-in-chief, the article of the lieutenant, they say that in fact we did not hear anything new, that we did not have rose-colored glasses, we understood that the situation is complicated, that it is not simple, but some of the people who, they hear very often, we are about to win, we are doing well, we will be making more weapons here in the near future, and this is in the near future, sounds like a year or even

battles are taking place in avdiivka, in gunshots and explosions can be heard everywhere. the russian army is storming the positions of the armed forces of ukraine, reports rfe/rl's correspondent maryan kushnir, who was there the day before november 8. then it's battles, the russian army. is trying to storm the positions of the armed forces of ukraine, they are repulsed by various means, artillery, bmps, and mortars, actually they are holding the defense for now, i am currently in avdiivka, in fact in the center of the city, the city is completely destroyed, you can see for yourself, it is only a small part of it part, and there is no interruption. battles are fought artillery, aviation, in fact, the sounds of the explosion can be heard everywhere, and as the local residents meet, the villages of the russian federation continue to actively attack the audio from all possible areas, deepstayte analysts also report. it is noted there that the assaults are taking place immediately on the villages of stepove, novokalynove , umanske, tonenke, severne and in avdiivka, near the wa

, because the situation in avdiivka, in avdiivka, is such that monant che klyshni, from the north andy are already hanging over, avdiivka, but this is the perimeter around avdiivka, about 30 km, where the front line is stretched, and now the enemy has used any options to push closer there, in particular to berdychi, to orlivka, where the logistical connection takes place, but yesterday we just talked with the fighters from avdiyivka, they said, which is actually very difficult, but all these attempts are there the enemy there to go out and to kokhsokhim, and to use any options of squeezing do not work, but now we see a video where he was, mtlb. eh, which was packed with explosives, this russian fighter jumped out, you hope that this mtlb will reach our lines and something will break our defense there, but this mtlb breaks down, blows up halfway on mines, which, by the way, indicates that these areas are mined, so the enemy has to break through minefields, through our artillery, i.e. this is a situation on shells for artillery, enough drones to detect the enemy and these a absolutely c

, maybe the information is secret, well, but in avdiivka hell, we have to talk to our soldiers, it isery difficult there, there is an extremely high concentration of fire and activated russian avdiyivka is a window, putin's window, actually into the geopolitical arena. avdiyivka is the direction in which putin planned to conduct a successful operation, to capture it there at the expense of tank wedges or to cover avdiyivka, to sharpen it and demonstrate that for his allies, for say, first of all for sidzipin, that he... is still ready and capable of conducting organized attacks that the russian army, despite everything that everyone has already begun to perceive as the fact that the russian army is losing even its defensive potential, he decided to state that it may even have offensive potential, and of course, if you and i remember very carefully how it all started, and the attack on vavdiivka coincided with the moment when putin met with... the chinese leader, actually declared at that time that he was ready for negotiations, that is, he was himself , he was very, very sure that the

avdiivka is preparing for a siege, to the two armies involved earlier to take avdiivka, the occupierse forced to add one more, because the results of the three-week battles turned out to be for them unexpectedly negative, in just 20 days, the russian armed forces lost 6,500 of their soldiers, 100 tanks and 250 armored vehicles. during this time of continuous attacks on the city, the rashists were able to expand the zone of their control by several square kilometers near krasnogohororivka, which is located north of avdiiv and was close to the coke-chemical plant, which is the main fortress of the city's defense forces. they also managed to gain a foothold on the terekon towering above avdiivka, as well as to approach the railway shaft, along which the front line now runs. for the first time in an impenetrable one the defense in the north was strengthened, for a week they moved the emphasis of the offensive to the southern flank in the area of ​​vodyanye and opitnoye, but they could not achieve substantial success here, except for advancing a few hundred meters in the area of ​​the quar

i want to go back to avdiivka, we just talked to the officer from avdiivka, the assaults don’t stop therei see that there are changes on the deep state map, there is a brain tumor in one or two places, they just crossed it, well, how dangerous is it and whether will they still be able to push through and close the ring around avdiyivka, what are your calculations, because our military says that they are holding everything, and this is a fairly dynamic situation, it is meant that certain positions are entered, then they are knocked out, it seems that ours don't risk keeping our infantrymen under fire and destroying them the way the brainy ones do, but still, let's be very careful, it's dangerous, it's dangerous, really, we have to, well, once again, i've done it many times i say, you don’t need to be a geek, look at the deep state map and understand what’s left there , i measured yesterday, well, on the deep state map there are even 7-8 km left to close this gate, yes, to take surrounded by the city of avdiivka, it is clear that they are trying to put pressure on them, well, it is importan

agglomeration, the fighting around avdiivka remains the most active. the enemy is trying continue to carry out offensive actions, the ukrainian armed forces carry out counter-offensives, counter-attacks, so that in fact the enemy's attempts to encircle avdiivka already there for a month do not lead to anything worthwhile, except for significant losses of the enemy and in more detail about what is happening on this part of the front, we will talk with our next guest, we are joined by maksym morozov, major of the ministry of internal affairs, officer of the legion of freedom. major, congratulations. you have the espresso channel on the air, glad to see and hear. glory to ukraine! glory to the heroes. if possible, in more detail, relying on your information, the latest, the most recent, what is happening right around avdiivka, primarily in the north, what is the situation around the steppe, why is the information so contradictory, and regarding the enemy's attempts to break through to koksokhim, what are there, what are the latest events there? well, then

yes, now we will talk about the avdiiv direction and avdiivka, and our fortress, with the head of thestration, vitaly barabash, in connection with us, mr. vitaly, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, how are you holding on, we know that every morning, every night, every day, but like the last, the last extreme day, like you, how it all looks, eh. well , fundamentally unchanged, everything is the same as it was, the same as it is, as they were doing, they are doing it 24 hours a day, that according to the positions, that around the city, a little more than 30 mass shootings took place over the past day on the territory of the community, i don’t know about the positions, there are hundreds of those shellings , well, no one counts them there, because this is an unreal story, and we hear shooting battles day and night on the positions, they are climbing mostly by infantry, and there are no breakthroughs , three are holding , guys, everything, everything is in principle controlled, of course, such things are exhausting, and i can’t even imagine how it exhausts the guys there, and the loc

but i will repeat once again, the issue is not in avdiivka, well, don’t focus on avdiivka, the issuet the entire front line, and it is difficult on the entire front line, and at the same time , they are fighting on the entire front line, and they are fighting not only in people of avdiiv , so pay attention, well, not only to the whole situation that is happening, well, about avdiivka, because now it is called one of the hottest spots, actually on the map of the war, i thank you for turning on, take care, sergand, the commander of the bpp platoon of the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade, yaroslav handyuk, the armed forces of ukraine, callsign okhol gilst, our broadcast, we talked about the situation in the vdiiv direction and in general what the ukrainian military needs today. the occupation administration in occupied tokmok, in zaporizhia, is trying to find apartments with heating in the city to accommodate personnel of the russian armed forces. this is reported by the center of national resistance, this the project was created by special operations forces. they say that most

rfe/rl near avdiivka, the use of ffp drones in the avdiivka direction by the ukrainian military became one of the main types of weapons that stopped russian convoys during the offensive. currently, the russian military does not use equipment during its attacks in this direction, only a living resource. russian infantry storms daily, only one ukrainian calculation of attack drone operators uses about 30 warbirds daily. then there are shots of the pilots. in the shock bplla of the 47th separate mechanized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine on the outskirts of avdiyivka, yes, thank you, thank you, thank you very much, all your weapons are clean, are there already identified targets, or do you have to find them? there are so many that you just fly in with a mavic , saw a comedian rise and go forward , don't even live, it's an plow, there will be more infantry approaching today, we are finding targets, it could be alive. the enemy's strength can be equipment, there can be some kind of fortification, artillery, ages, machine gun, everything, we find what can interfere with our infantry,

, northern and pervomaisky in the south, and avdiivka itself. russian forces fired artillery and mortars at 15 nearby settlements. the day before, the commander of the tavri operational-strategic group of troops, oleksandr ternavskyi, stated that the russian military has reduced the number of assaults, but continues to ignore the laws and customs of war, shelling civilian infrastructure. russian pro-war publications report that the initiative in the avdiiv direction remains with the russian side. rydovka's telegram channel writes that the russian army is entrenched in the steppe region. and attacks near the coke plant, south of the city fighting continues near the industrial zone and the village of severne. oleksandr shtupun, spokesman for the united press center of the defense forces of the tavria region, joins our broadcast. oleksandr, i congratulate you, thank you for joining. glory to ukraine. glory to heroes. oleksandr, tell me the latest news from near avdiyivka. you said the day before that the assaults near avdiivka have subsided, and th

, and that's all, even if avdiivka. in fact there is not, even if avdiivka is in fact not there and wennot go anywhere further, so the situation here is absolutely simple, it is logical, and it seems to me that we need to think when we talk about donbas, about maintaining precisely strategic positions, about what the further actions of the russians in this or that direction may be, we must realize that we cannot succumb to propaganda, always criticize the so-called donetsk people's republic and the so-called luhansk people's republic as a pretext for attacking ukraine. of course, it would be good for putin if the entire territory of donetsk and luhansk regions were under the control of the russians, but this is not his main goal, it is an excuse only to continue attacks on ukraine. mr. mykhailo has already appeared again, this is attempt number three, i can really hear you. i don't know if now and now yes, you see, there has always been some kind of equal weight, so i want to ask you about the extent to which you agree with the idea that the russian army has seized the initiative in do

btg , that is, one btgr died on 2 km of the front near avdiivka. one more thing in this article by simon shuster is when an anonymous source from the president's office tells him that they are preparing for the fact that russian shelling of this land will be even stronger than what we saw last year. mr. oleksandr, how much do you think russia has reduced its shelling, of course. that they are preparing, how many missiles could russia have accumulated, and could russia have received missiles from someone else as a gift or for money, and also, what is this number and from whom, well, cruise missiles, i do not think that they received somehow a gift, but in terms of production and intensity of strikes, i will say yes, and this winter komikatsi drones will prevail, not winged ones. cruise missiles, cruise missiles, they will be of a secondary type, there will not be more of them like last year, cruise missiles, but they will be a booster element, that is, they will be replaced by shaheds, which production, if we are talking about hasta 1,555, they can

serhiy, we want to start the conversation today with avdiivka, the hottest and probably the saddest.f the ukrainian front, those arrows on the maps, show that the russians are constantly attacking, especially there in the north, the direction to the steppe, to the swallows in their, ee publics, their so-called warriors, in general, they are already there shouting about the fact that they almost surrounded avdiivka, well , at least they reach certain settlements, please tell us more about which ones the situation there now and how serious is the threat that the russians are talking about, that they can encircle avdiivka? well, the desire of the enemy to take the surroundings of avdiivka is already a long-standing goal and long-standing aspirations, we know that avdiivka has been holding the enemy's onslaught for a long time, and during the last mass attacks that began last month, there were actually several such... sneak attacks that were caused there by the enemy's attempt to advance from different directions, using armored vehicles in the first stages, then in view of significant lo

, and can you explain why avdiivka remains a priority?f course, these are any military explanations for you, because there are, let's say, certain conditions exist for the enemy to successfully complete the implementation of his plan, well, a classic operation, a classic bypass surgery, do they have a chance to do it? i don't know, i won't say, there are chances, always in them, ugh, from, the question is different, which ones, of what size, well, then in this context, i want to understand in which of the front directions the armed forces of ukraine have the initiative, in which on the contrary, the russian forces, i ask this because very often in the summer, when military experts joined us, they said that since the ukrainian forces were preparing an offensive operation, almost everywhere there was an initiative for the armed forces, as now, well, i must clarify here that you put in the term initiative, is it a strategic initiative or , in separate directions , what do you mean, i did not hear, let's consider both options , the strategic

according to some data, the invaders lost about 3 soldiers near avdiivka over the past month. sanctions against traitors. president volodymyr zelenskyy signed a decree that provides for strict restrictions against officials who support russian. the list includes ex-prime minister mykola azarov, ex-minister of education and science dmytro tabachnyk, deputies of the banned party of regions, oleg tsarev and dmytro svyatash. the list also includes the head of the occupation administration of crimea, serhiy aksnov, the head of the terrorist lnpr, leonid pasichnyk, and the traitor-propagandist yuriy kot. the package of sanctions provides for the blocking of assets, a complete restriction of trade operations, flights and transportation of the territory of ukraine. not preventing the withdrawal of money from ukraine and a ban on implementation of transactions with securities. undeclared gadgets, worth almost uah 2 million, were discovered by bukovina border guards at the porubne checkpoint on the border with romania. this happened during an additional check of a passenger bus returnin

kremlin, a task the kremlin does not remain unchanged and it is located on avdiivka.y, avdiivka , and as far as i understand, there are certain deadlines, and by the new year the task has been set to take avdiivka from the side of the russians and these groups that are there, i mean the units that are formed on the occupied parts of donetsk, luhansk. oblasts, yes, they have previously stated that the capture of avdiyivka could be such a tactical result for putin, who will announce new presidential elections in mid-december. mr. mykhailo, institute of studies. referring to the data of the operational command of the south, it is written that the defense forces on the left bank of the dnieper advanced 3.8 km, in fact, that the day before ukrainian troops continued larger-than-usual operations there, so far the general staff has not announced details, informational silence is requested, so we adhere to it, and what successes of the armed forces on the left bank can be considered as opening the perspective for further, larger-scale, possibly offensive actions. as soon as w

, although... the avdiivka section itself is even smaller than what was near bakhmut, where the enemywas about the same, well, there is a road and so on zadiyivka and kurakhove and selidove, the enemy wants... to make such a gate to donbas on donbas for himself, but here is what is noticeable, that , say, avdiyivka is 29 km in area, bakhmud is 41 km in area, that is, it is bigger, well, the enemy managed to capture it there with huge losses, now the armed forces of ukraine are trying to restore the situation, but our advance to chasivyar, sloviansk , kostiantynivka, drushkivka, it did not happen, that is, the city was destroyed, the city was captured, but further , there was no further movement, this was precisely one of the reasons, why was it necessary to get bakhmut in order to prevent the enemy from advancing to these areas, where it was possible to move to the so-called operational space, and now the russians want to implement such a scenario on the basis of avdiivka, because the situation in avdiivka, in pavdiivka is such that, relatively speaking , these are cliches from the no

, bakhmud, avdiivka, but avdiivka was tried yesterday. you know, in the style, in the style of movies, we used to watch stupid soviet movies when we were children, they were called movies and germans, but sometimes they were shown with music, on the march, and at full speed they stand on e, like the nazis and go to storm the trenches, psychological, yes, something like that happened yesterday, that is, mostly behind, as they say, a fortified line, and yesterday the muscovites used frontal attacks to go to avdiyka, our military says that... it resembled a psychological attack, but what about in the city itself , we are now learning more from people who come to help 24 hours a day, seven days a week, one of the members of the police crew, the white angel pavlo dyachenko, on connection with our studio, mr. pavle, congratulations, glory to ukraine, congratulations, studio, glory to the heroes, what does the city look like now through your eyes, we heard last week that there is no longer even the last store, what does the city look like these days, well, it really is hell, you you're right

the bodies of two people were pulled out from under the rubble of a house in avdiivka.he day before , the russians carried out an airstrike on the ninety-povka. a 63-year-old man and a 66-year-old woman died as a result of the attack. about this. minister of internal affairs ihor klymenko said. the white angel police evacuation team had to unblock bodies naked. we went to the place from the tutorial. by means, after reaching the city, in our armored car, we climbed over the concrete fragments to the third floor, it was very difficult, enemy shells were exploding nearby, it was very difficult to get the table, as reinforced concrete structures, slabs were hanging over our heads, the russians had a restless night . explosions rang out at two strategic factories in erefia. in the city of kolomna, moscow region , local residents reported an attack by drones, explosions rang out in the area design bureau of mechanical engineering. it is known that mortars, anti-tank guns, and tochka missile complexes are manufactured there. u and iskander. in the ministry of defense, refs ha

, what we hear at night, how dense the enemy is shelling avdiivka. because we are not we see, we don’ don’t know how many personnel there are, but i can tell you for sure that the hum does not stop, avdiivka is 12-15 km from us on the map, if you point your hand at it, that is, we can hear it all clearly, it is the first the thing i want to tell you about the audio girl, and three hours ago today i had a meeting with a brother from the brigade as an audio girl, i can only repeat his words, because we all understand that the situation there is difficult, i asked how you are, he said i'm quoting you verbatim, he said, dude, we won't pass the audiobook, yes, but in any case, we understand that the battles will be extremely difficult, and in particular , taking into account the transfer of additional equipment, we also understand that the enemy will try to increase and increase the pressure, although it already seemed that they pressed the gas pedal to the limit, look, i wanted to ask you about the new defensive line along the road 05:13, in particular it is about the horlivka road, the e

was counting on, what can the kremlin switch to if he does not get avdiivka by december? that unfortunately, unfortunately, i will say this not, not very good thing, obviously the russian generals will have to demonstrate putin, because we are talking about demonstrating putin, they do not care about the population, in fact, putin you ... to be some, some a beautiful picture, a victorious picture, showing as a great leader before the same so-called election, and this the bad thing i want to say is the missile strikes on the civilian ukrainian population , in order to show the russians on tv that look how powerful we are, we are now destroying ukrainian cities, that is, on the front, even if they throw a few tens of thousands more people , well, they will have even more at the expense of extra effort, it will still stop the enemy, but it will not be a beautiful picture , clearly, no matter how many warriors try to show it beautifully, well, it cannot be shown or demonstrated that it is success, but strikes on ukrainian cities, to show the suffering of ukrainians, the russi

is happening now and how was the night in avdiivka? well, the night was more or less calm, there were single flights in the old part of the city and in the central part, there were no such massed serious shellings during the night, but during the day, of course, what was going on, if we talk about the day, then a little more than 30 massive shelling took place on the territory of the community, of course, not without aerial bombardments, unfortunately, they also happened yesterday, they were mostly hitting high-rise buildings, again, they are destroying, they are making up again, well, so far no information has been received on the account , god forbid the dead or wounded, civilians, i hope that it will remain so , well, nevertheless, the city is being leveled, due to the successes of the enemy on the flanks, well, really, it is still very far to some serious success there, to cutting our there logistical artery to some environment. very far away, yesterday, i visited the commander of the brigade, which mostly holds, well, the larger l

russian troops began to advance on avdiivka from two more directions. this is what the head of the avdiiv city military says administration, vitaly barabash. we are talking about the direction from donetsk through the village of spartak, as well as from the side of the so-called promka. according to barabash, intense fighting near avdiivka confirms that the third wave. the storming of the city did begin. despite the deteriorating weather, the russian forces use a lot of aviation and artillery to capture the city. oleksandr shtupun, spokesman for the united press center of the defense forces of tavria, says that due to the weather conditions near avdiyivka , a decrease in the number of drones is recorded, but airstrikes are still very many. russian soldiers are attacking ukrainian positions in groups of 1,020 people - says shtupun. and in general, they are coming from six directions. i will remind you that a new large-scale offensive. on avdiivka, the russian army began on october 10 this year, later on october 20 , the ukrainian army announced the secon

the production of ukrainian strike drones of the shahed type, about the combat operations around avdiivka with details from our military and about new developments to protect our armored vehicles from enemy lancets and fpvrons. more on that in a moment. ukraine has started serial production of domestic drones, analogs, and shaheeds, the minister of strategic industries , oleksandr kamyshyn, said. i quite deliberately took this news to start our war program, to record it in ours monuments for further evaluations of compliance, the words of our officials to specific results from the actions of these drones either on the battlefield or in the depths of the enemy's territory with the destruction of targets such as defense enterprises, military facilities and energy supply systems, as was the case, in particular, near volgograd. the minister did not name the ukrainian shaheda, but it was stated that dozens of them are produced at the state factory. and most likely , it is about the production of aircraft equipment that was developed by private defense companies companies, their scaling is alre

, bakhmut, bakhmut, avdiivka and so on and so on that, the russians rested there, that they want, whatdo they really think, because experts say that even after capturing avdiyivka, it will not give any strategic results for the russian army, but first of all, here is putin's position itself, we clearly know the information about the fact that putin set the task of achieving a specific result, the first situation was, er, kupensk and they threw 110,000 and one tank army, a cantivirus division, everything that could be thrown, we beat them there, they advanced a little, and then we rejected them and in fact there, and then, if it was successful, it went straight to kharkiv, well, this is a strategic position that failed completely, and shuiguratsiem was really promised this to putin, but he only says, give us all the new forces, means, tank army and everything will be a matter of the hat, as they say, well, this hat did not come out anywhere. therefore, in this situation, a different direction was determined, to declare the first position, that by the new year, to completely capture the

well, actually, continuing the topic of avdiivka, the possibility of the russian army storming avdiivka has been discussed for several days in a row. how realistic is this scenario, and in general, is it realistic to get avdiivka under these circumstances. well, they will storm, it must be said that the ukrainian defense forces have already completed many important tasks, because they have to to understand that the enemy's task is not simply to advance on avdiivka, this is a secondary task, the primary task is to withdraw all our forces from the south and prevent us from conducting a potentially ambitious operation on the left bank of the kherson region and advancing in the direction of melitopol, that is, the enemy seeks to do everything to today, well, in fact , we had only one hot area on our agenda, and our troops were operating there, especially the reserve, that is why avdiivka was chosen for these attacks, it is clear that the enemy did not achieve these goals, some units were indeed redeployed, they are now helping to defend avdiyivka, especially from the northern flank and not

in the south or in the north of avdiivka? well, i will say, the situation is difficult everywhere, but it is under control. i would also like to ask you to explain what the avdiivska promka means , we have been hearing this name, this military name since the 14th year, it is an industrial zone near the avdiiv coke plant, is it about it, or is it another industrial zone? well, if someone was in obadiah. then there are two in total industrial zones in the direct, so to speak, technical sense, that is, one, it can be assumed that this is a coke-chemical plant and one, a small one, it is located in the south of avdiivka, the one for which, well , we heard about it in 14-15 years, and the coke-chemical plant that you mentioned , is the military currently holding it, how much of an assault on the russian forces are they... the power in relation to the plant, is this plant really still a target for the russian troops, well, of course, not only the plant, but also the civilian infrastructure of the city of avdiyivka itself is a targe

let's start with the situation near avdiivka, because well, during the last few the city of avdiivkais being bombarded by aerial bombs and salvo rocket systems. zaluzhnyi talks about what zami. during the active assault on avdiivka, the enemy lost about 10,000 people, more than 100 tanks, 250 armored vehicles, about 50 artillery systems, and seven su-25 aircraft. and, the commander-in-chief also thanked every soldier who protects the avtin troops, who are fighting hard for it now. if we look at the map, we will see that exactly, from avdiivka, there are two roads, one goes to pokrovsk, then to pavlograd, the other road goes from konstantinovka, then to kramator, these are two such powerful roads that, er, are the key to success for the russian federation, in the event that they will be after the capture of avdiyivka, for us it is necessary to understand that this is precisely the ability of the russians at the right time the concentration of troops and, to a powerful fire attack, that this gives the ability to cut our donetsk group into two halves. after pavlograd, it will be possibl

by the way, this may also be the case with avdiivka, many military experts say, at least in the west,pture of avdiivka cannot lead to anything significant, and i think that the russians just need to demonstrate such small victories, it is by and large ideologically the content of russian statehood. it is very important that we do not inherit it and tried to turn into a country of victories, like russia. the country of victories is not the country that wins, but the country that passes off any of its actions as a victory, you know, went into a pocket with a hole, won, just like that in a war, if it is possible to capture a settlement, even this settlement will be left. it's a victory, it's a victory, we're in avdiivka, and, well, we can't go anywhere, so the situation here is absolutely, simple, logical, and it seems to me that... we need to think when we talk about donbas, about holding precisely strategic positions, about what the further actions of the russians in this or that direction may be, we must realize that we cannot be exposed to propaganda actions, and then one more thing,

, ., ., ., , ., avdiivka? it is extraordinary for ma be avdiivka?aybe western _ avdiivka? it is extraordinary for maybe western armies, - avdiivka? it is extraordinary for maybe western armies, for- avdiivka? it is extraordinary for maybe western armies, for the j avdiivka? it is extraordinary for - maybe western armies, for the soviet army and the russian army. perhaps not so extraordinary, but a lot higher than they lost in ten years, and in afghanistan. i think at the operation level around avdiivka, that attack has been going on since almost i think a day before the attack by hamas on israel. so, it comes with it, and initially, avdiivka is assailant. it's like a thumb that sticks out outside government ukrainians have been able —— ukrainians have been able to cause damage over a large period of time. , , ., , ., cause damage over a large period of time. ,, ., , ., . time. the russians have resource that initial success _ time. the russians have resource that initial success with _ time. the russians have resource that initial success with more

, well, in the donetsk direction, because donetsk is beyond avdiivka, but we say in avdiivka in the donetsk , because well, not only avdiivka, the donetsk direction, but part, part of this direction, we can also talk about marinka, but these are quite effective actions of the armed forces of ukraine , highly effective, i would say so, there we are talking about thousands and thousands of destroyed enemies, there it goes the language of units of destroyed equipment, in fact, the enemy managed to kill him. this bone, around which he has built muscles, the problem is that the enemy has now taken this bone from there and is trying to stick another bone and build up muscles again, and attack again, you see, the trouble is that in the enemy has enough manpower, of different quality, let's be honest, but this does not mean that these people do not know how to shoot, do not know how to run, do not know how to fall into trenches, do not know how to fight hand to hand there, they can do it, because they are living beings, but, but again, yes er, and now we have ksenia kalina on the phone, and we will

, and that's all, even if it is avdiivka. in fact there is not, even if avdiyivka is in fact not there and we cannot go anywhere further, so the situation here is absolutely simple, it is logical, and it seems to me that we need to think when we talk about donbas, about maintaining precisely strategic positions, about that, what may be the further actions of the russians in this or that direction, we must realize that we cannot give in precisely to propaganda actions, and then i want to remind you, khrystyna, that by and large , putin's idea, it, er, always used the so-called donetsk people's republic and the so-called luhansk people's republic as a pretext for attacking ukraine. of course, it would be good for putin if the entire territory of the donetsk and luhansk regions were under the control of the russians, but this is not his main goal. it is an excuse solely to continue to strike ukraine, we already have mr. mykhailo again, this is attempt number three, three, please, mr. mykhailo, let 's try again, how are you really, i hear you, there is some balance, so i wanted you to ask

there is a little less talk about bakhmut, considering the fact that the same hell is happening in avdiivka the russians are now constantly writing in their publications that they are attacking somewhere, that they are having success somewhere, and if they do not write such a thing, then they write about the fact that all ukrainian attacks are repulsed, and everything is fine with them, everything is fine with them, we want to hear the version that actually takes place, this is what is happening now the situation, on our part of the front, the horde is trying to regain lost positions, namely to take complete control of the railway, they storm every day, but this morning they did it again very actively, they work in small groups, sometimes even without the cover of armored vehicles, well, as a rule with a cover, here, but we know about all their intentions , we have all the forces and means to prevent them from being allowed in and not to return the positions that were won in hard battles, so at the moment, on our side, active defense continues here, the task of restraining their their inten
