in the north , the enemy leveled the line of defense, starting from ivanovsky khromovoy to bohdanivkaifficult today around the tick. despite the active work of our artillery, the enemy is actively using a significant number of personnel there. the armed forces of ukraine say that there is enough artillery, but the enemy has significantly more mortars and with the help of fpv drones and... mortars, the invaders are trying to influence our defense line. one more step on the way to european integration: ukraine was again in the center of attention during the eu summit in brussels. due to the lack of consensus before the start of the meeting, the leaders warned that this summit could last several days. on wednesday evening , the prime minister of estonia, kaia kalas, said that representatives of the countries risk spending christmas in brussels if no agreement is reached regarding ukraine. however, countries the participants still managed to vote for the start of negotiations on the accession of our country to the european union, although the joy of such a decision was overshadowed by the

they also recently showed footage there the alleged assault on khromovoi, whose capture was reportedministry of defense last week. i note that ukraine did not confirm the capture of this village by russian forces. earlier, russian telegram channels also reported on successes in another direction in the east of ukraine , kupyansk, russian troops allegedly began to control part of the village of senkivka in the kharkiv region, near which fighting has been going on for several months, the telegram channel writes about this in particular, about the advance near senkivka , rydovka also reports. in the ukrainian general staff is informed of five repulsed attacks in the senkivka area. the spokeswoman of the 14th separate mechanized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine joins our broadcast. nadia zamryga. nadiya , i congratulate you, first of all, i congratulate you on the day of the armed forces of ukraine and thank you for joining our broadcast, informing society about what is happening in your direction, tell in more detail what is happening in the kupinsky direction, what can you say no

talked about bakhmut, there are also attempts to counterattack and advance somewhere in the area of ​​khromovoyis is the maximum that we gathered , as of this moment, in and accordingly we ask you, that is , the russian counterattack has started, they are having partial success and pushing through our defense line? it remains, in all areas, the two areas are the most active, it is really bahmud avdivka, although we are dropping cremin, and when we if we are talking about the prague offensive, then we can actually start the countdown from there on october 9, when the russians began the first massive attacks on avdiivka, and since then they have been trying to penetrate the entire line, mr. sergey, i apologize for interrupting, but in fact, now our viewers at most, we did not hear very important information, the connection is worse than with the front line, let 's try to re-establish it, because it's just... there is a breakdown of words and we are redialing serhii azurets on digital in order to establish a stable connection, after all i will return to what i asked about, so that it would be clea

didn't like the places we occupied there the prevailing heights, well, maybe in order to move towards khromovoy, there is information there, well, they did not capture khromovo, it is a gray area, there is a small distance there, hundreds of meters, but it can be assumed that they want to go to chasivyar, they want to move there. well, to advance the front line further. mr. oleksiy, may i have a question about avdiiv coke chemical plant, here is information from the general director of meinvest, yuriy ryzhankov, he says that due to the destruction caused by the russian occupiers to the avdiiv coke chemical plant, it will be impossible to restore it after the end of the war, and i have a question for you here, this is for him understandable from the economic point of view, and to you from the military point of view. to what extent this plant is such a, let's say, fortress, how difficult it will be for the russians to capture this object after all, because we know that our armed forces are trying in every way to keep this object under under his control, but again, as far as this plant is suitable

andriy, what is the current situation near khromovoy, what is happening there now?n khrom, a few huts are under our control, the army did not capture it completely, but the northern one even from khromovo, it is advancing a little there, somewhere there 50 meters there per day, but this advance is there, ugh, and which units are the enemy using now in their offensive actions, that is, these are already old units, or this newly formed or some consolidated groups? and they drove a lot there, the old ones were standing there , and their 72 motorized rifle came, and the wagners all came, there are already many new ones, they are constantly replenishing, how intense is the russian offensive on the settlement of bohdanivka now, we know that partly there our armed forces have had successes, there are liberated territories, but we see that the russians are also trying to advance in this direction as well. i said, we have no success on bagdany, we are sitting there, of course, the use of aviation, you mentioned about the fact that the enemy uses aviation, how intensively, wh

well, they continue to advance near bakhmut, and there, moreover, analysts record an advance near khromovoi and ivanovsky, how can it develop? the situation there, i am talking about whether it is more profitable for them from the point of view of the tactical steps of the yar times, or could it be about an offensive in the direction of kramatorsk, an important logistical hub, now the administrative center of donetsk region? eh, they are currently forced to solve two combat tasks, either they should move in the north-west direction, ah, or they should really be engaged in liquidation now. rather unfavorable for them a bridgehead in the area of ​​chasiv yar, because we do not forget that chasiv yar is, in addition to everything else, also the highest dominant height in general in this area, therefore any other movement, it is one way or another, but is within the radius of action of this one pony height, and therefore, most likely, they will now first expand the safety buffer for bakhmut himself. that is , to create a security buffer in the western sector, and secondly , in the southern sect

all, he is trying to ensure an advance from the north above bohdanivka, to ensure an advance to khromovoyd also to replay the fighting around klishchiivka and andriivka, actually. there are now battles over klishchiivka, which are connected with the control of the dominant heights, the enemy has repeatedly reported that, relatively speaking, he managed to get to these, to the support point at an altitude of 215.7, but in reality this information is completely incorrect reality, although, as soldiers from other brigades say, in particular from the fifth separate assault brigade, which now controls the area near... klishchiivka with an exit to ivanovske, the enemy is trying to rotate reserves, accumulate forces is still trying to break through to the positions held by the ukrainian military, and the strengthening of our units and brigades is important here, because in particular the commander of one of the battalions of this brigade said that the reinforcements that are coming to their brigade we are not talking now about the third, but about the fifth air assault brigade. in fact, it does

yar times, and exerting pressure on our defensive lines there in just the direction of bohdanivka, khromovoynd ivanovsky. and by the way, the situation there is quite, shall we say, difficult, now we are holding back the enemy primarily at the expense of artillery, although there are situations when combat we use the parts due to the fact that we transfer them from other areas of the front to this direction, and now we will return to the direction of kupien-sphatovi kremin to where one of our mechanized brigades is holding the defense. and now we are joined by the head of the public relations service of the 21st separate mechanized brigade, which has been holding the defense in the kupinsko-lymansk direction for a long time, and senior sergeant serhii dibrov joins us. mr. sergey, i congratulate you, i am glad to see and hear you. good evening, glory to ukraine. glory to heroes. thank you for finding the opportunity to join the broadcast, and i would like you to talk more about the situation in the zone responsibly. of your brigade, which is now the usual offensive tactics of the enemy, becau

in the direction of bohdanivka, the actions are trying to establish themselves on moving towards khromovoyvaders had previous successes there between bakhmut tavan. it was a few days ago and now they are trying to advance on ivanovski, but these are the strokes, actually, which are known to us in general, and we will now return to the conversation with oles in more detail. mr. olesya, what is the general situation in these areas that we are trying to tell our viewers about? yes, in our lane, more southerly, the enemy continues to carry out shock storm actions, tries to regain positions, lost, klichchevka, andriivka is very important for them, and the railroad, they're trying to cling to and push back our forces, but they can't do it in this area, so our job at the moment is active defense, at any opportunity, our, our infantry moves to assault actions in order to to repulse some other strong points there, if we talk about shock bpoles, then our task is to destroy everything that moves in the direction of our infantry, everything that enters our lane, well, this video was about three days a

i took this line of defense, starting from ivanivsky khromovoga khromovoy to bohdanivka, it became soeven, because he managed, relatively speaking, to outplay. part of the results that were achieved in the ukrainian army , now due to the transfer of reserves to this area, there is just such a constant rotation that paratroopers exchange with units of the first corps, and such a certain constant rotation, which due to a significant number of personnel ensures , conditionally speaking, well, it ensured advancement to a certain distance deep into our territory, and so on difficult around. shiivki, because there is active, despite the active work of artillery, our artillery, the enemy also uses a significant number of personnel, and today i had a conversation with my comrade, he says that in fact we have enough artillery, but the enemy has much more mortars, i.e. they are trying to influence our defense line precisely at the expense of mortars and fpv drones, although regarding artillery, why did the question arise, today there was an interview with... one of the officers of the 92nd brig

actions in the direction of bohdanivka, actions are trying to gain a foothold on moving towards khromovoy, the occupiers had previous successes there between bakhmut and ivanovsky, it was a few days ago, and now they are trying to advance to ivanovsky, but these are the strokes, in fact, that are known to us in general, and in more detail we will now return to the conversation with... oles, mr. olesya, what is the general situation in these areas that we are trying to tell our viewers about? yes, there is a storm on our lines to the south, the enemy continues to carry out shock storm actions, tries to return positions are lost , klyschivka, andriyivka is also very important to them, the railway is also very important to them, they are trying to cling to it and push our forces away, but they do not succeed in this area, that is , our work at the moment is active defense, at any opportunity our.. .our infantry moves to assault actions in order to recapture some other strongholds there. if we talk about the impact bpela, then our task is to destroy everything that moves in the direction of o

is exactly the movement of the enemy starting from berkhivka in the direction of bohdanivka and khromovoi bohdanivka the enemy is not there... they did not let him advance, they asked losses, but regarding khromovo, in fact, russian troops and units entered khromovo, but they are not allowed to gain a foothold there, and now, relatively speaking, there are such active hostilities, because there is nothing dangerous in khromovo from the point of view of russian actions, because they create prerequisites for the russian... group to enter the flank or the rear of those of our troops operating there on the southern flank, they are putting pressure on the enemy there in the zone of klyschivka, andriyivka, and what is more, there are risks of the enemy's advance to the time of the yar , indeed, this is precisely one of the directions that creates the opportunity for the enemy to advance deep, but these are such theoretical estimates that are based primarily on the direction of the enemy's efforts, on the fact that these are fuel heights and tries to move along them, but this is not means that i
