is taking place, and the distance from kostiantynivka to the combat reporting line is 12, a maximum3 km, 15 million hryvnias are allocated for this from the state budget, to be exact 15.4, for the purchase of, for example, barbed wire the amount of uah 12 million, and this barbed wire... it is enough to set up positions up to 30 km long, it is not stupid, is it open sabotage, that is , the answer is yes, if we have already touched on the story about the fortification lines, fortifications and so on and so forth, as much as we actively move in that direction in order to just, well, protect ourselves from perhaps not too pleasant scenarios, and when you mentioned the prospects or the possibility, god forbid, of course with... let's hope that that this will never happen, about the prospects of the operational encirclement, yes, what additional forces the enemy can throw for this, there is an understanding, there is an understanding, let's talk about the fact that the threat of the operational encirclement is being created in several directions, this is , accordingly, the ughledar direc

in the direction of kostiantynivka , the turn on new york with several such arrows, then this will allow really, i repeat once again, threaten toretska and further logistical routes that connect chasivyar, pokrovsk, kostantinivka, and thus inflict a real defeat on the ukrainian army in this district, but there is still a long way to go. that is, that is all i am now telling you about the possible plans of the russians and what their tactical operational plans are aimed at, and of course, the ukrainian command has its own tactical operational plans, to prevent the implementation of what the russians have planned, and i think that every day, since in any case there will be more ammunition, armored vehicles, other means of defeating the ukrainian army, because, let me remind you, the ukrainian army has withstood a mine since october... a year without this onslaught of the russians, and the russians suffered terrible losses, and now we will have more help, more opportunities to neutralize these threats. russia is pressing not only in the east, but also continues shelling the cities of ukrain

troops to have a bridgehead to start offensive operations in the direction of druzhkivka and kostiantynivka, which form a belt of fortifications from four large cities of the donetsk region. it is possible that russia will need a pause in order to strengthen the existing units. and the redeployment of additional forces in the ocheretiny region, this is stated, in particular, in the current report of the american institute for the study of war. hear what the soldiers who are holding the defense in the temporary yar have to say. the enemy, a lot of them die, a lot of them. destroy our soldiers, but i have to emphasize that the enemy has a lot of unmanned aerial vehicles, which have a great impact on the situation here, and now, well, we got armored vehicles, it became much easier to move around, it became easier to get there. logistics, evacuation and so on. well, i have the hope is that we will get the artillery, in the near future, the one that was predicted, that is , the shells, and really, it can change the situation, because i witnessed there, ... some of the events a year ago, when wag

able to take under fire control the rest of the cities nearby, such as kramatorsk, druzhkivka, kostiantynivka, and also organize a bridgehead for further advancement. not only our previous speaker, but also servicemen and military observers in our party have repeatedly spoken about this. in particular, if the loss of the time gap is only a matter of time, as the deputy head of the ministry of defense gur vadym skibitsky stated, then what is the point to prepare for other cities, how the situation has changed there since russia began to actively storm the times, what is the mood there, my colleague serhii horbatenko from kramatorsk joins the broadcast, although serhii actively works in all cities of donetsk region. sergey, hello, good day, we started with what you quoted. official agur, who says that the most difficult situation for ukraine since the beginning of the war has developed at the front. serhiy, sloviansk, where you live, and kramatorsk, where you often visit, are probably the cities that have felt the most there has been a war there since the 14th year, or do you feel that the wors

once again, after entering the ocheretino district, they look, once again, at the kostiantynivka-pokrovsk highway. it creates a very a serious overhang of a great, so to speak, eaves over our ugledar, and the ugledar now, in addition to deterring blows from the front, will also deter blows from the flanks. and this is a very serious threat precisely, the withdrawal, well, the russians are in this position. which will pose a threat to our defenders , including the coal plant, and as for the direction of sloviansk, well, so far sloviansk is only being bombed, but we are watching how at the moment, 3 million uah are allocated for the landscaping of kramatorsk through the system transparently, well, to be honest , i don't know how, how to speak how to comment on the idiocy of this situation, well, but i want to tell you that uah 15 million has also been allocated for... road repairs in the settlement of kostiantynka, well, what else can i say, what signals are we still missing in order to assess the capabilities of this trendie who is happening in the heads of our officials, they spent less m

highway, so that it would be possible to develop success in the direction of kostiantynivka, yes, butare trying to advance where... they succeed the most, somewhere someone is sitting there, or they find someone there, let's call it there is a stumbling block or a hole, and after that it is trying to develop in that direction, so you had another question, well, i will continue this question, actually you said about the routes and about what goal the russian army sets for in this area, that's what kabami blows are allows the russian forces to actually maintain their offensive, this is what the experts say, and the ukrainian general staff constantly declares about the cabs, such a difficult story for the ukrainian army, how it is possible to fight them and whether it is possible to resist these means at all, in particular in your direction, because there, i understand, the russian military is also using aerial bombs there very actively, so in the last few weeks , the intensity of the kabama strikes, it has decreased, and it has decreased normally, and in my opinion it is due to the fact

still have the choice of an offensive vector to the west on pokrovsk or to the north on toretsky kostiantynivkar, certain developments indicate that the armed forces are in control of the situation, in particular , the 110th brigade returned to the avdiiv direction, which replenished its ammunition and immediately shot down the su-25. instead, the third storm troop, 47 brigades retired , and therefore they had such an opportunity. krasnohorivka five months after the complete occupation of maryanka, the rashists still cannot leave the borders of this destroyed city. their offensive in the western direction on georgiyivka was a complete failure, as well as the offensive in the south, where their maximum success was the capture of the village of pobieda, which consisted of several dozen houses. therefore, the occupiers concentrated their efforts on storming the city of krasnohorivka, which is north of maryanka. they are advancing from two sides, from the east and... in the south, if the defense forces did not allow the enemy to enter the city from the eastern flank, then in the south the russians

we have a route to crimea, well , now after avdiivka, the russians have a conditional route to kostiantynivkaamatorsk, slovyansk. well, how much can they benefit, how long does it take? how much could we use then? that is, it is important, you know, that if it was andrii's war, for... specific territory, we knew what we were fighting for, the russians want to restore the territorial integrity of the donetsk region, which they annexed, and we want to de-occupy it. the war is for something completely different, the russians want to destroy this state, we want it to remain. well, in such a situation, you have to live in the logic of a long-term conflict. and to understand that all these events around specific settlements, in general, nothing will change for the next ten years. of course, there can be... peace on a certain line of eclipse it may not be, but these are all very conditional things, you see, well, i will remind you that during the vietnam war, even after the parties had already signed a peace agreement, and communist vietnam captured all the settlements in south vietnam, still the na

this is exactly the direction that is directed to the exact section of the road from pokrovsk to kostiantynivkathis direction for the enemy now, as we can see, can be one of the priorities for movement in this section, so now, if we look at the statistics of combat clashes there, it is exactly 33... in the avdiivskyi direction and 33rd zone in the bakhmut zone, precisely these two directions of bakhmutivskyi and avdiivskyi, they are now the enemy, it is certainly being considered to move in such a way as to cover our group there in the turkish zone and use this opportunity, which is now being developed in the russian troops, but i repeat, this is what it looks like if we look at the map, when we are now the same we look at the action... the ukrainian side is connected with the transfer of units, the use and airmobile complexes, and well , fpv drones, which cause significant losses to the enemy, as i think, now the general staff is focused on restraining the enemy's advance, this it is not easy now, because we remember the delays in aid and the problems with equipping our military units , given

that may be caused by the further advance of russian troops, in particular, there to the donetsk kostiantynivkaor in the movement of russian troops in the direction of pokrovsk, these risks are known, and i think that the general staff is now taking measures to prevent this from happening. another direction is the time of the yar . kebinetskyi also made certain assessments about it, he said that occupation by the enemy during the time of the yar is probable, but everything depends on our reserves and supplies, this is an absolutely correct conclusion, and now i can also say that now under. .. additional forces have been transferred to the yara time zone, which are also supposed to make it impossible for the enemy to advance in the direction of the czechs, although there are indeed now also there from the side of bohdanivka, and the enemy’s attempts to capture all of ivanovske continue, but during the last weeks some qualitative changes in there is no advance of the defense line on the part of the enemy, which indicates that the defense on our side is sufficiently effective. and by the way, ammu

in the ocheretino area, again, having entered the ocheretino area, they they look again at the kostiantynivka-pokrovsktrack, it creates a lot a serious overhang of a large, so to speak cornice over our ugledar, and the ugledar now, in addition to restraining blows from the front. he will also deter attacks from the flank, and this is a very serious threat to its exit, well, the russians are exactly in this position, who will pose threats to our defenders of the ugledar, including, and as for the direction of sloviansk, well, so far sloviansk is only are being bombed, but we are looking at how at the moment uah 3 million is allocated for the landscaping of kramatorsk through the prozoro system, well, honestly. saying i don't know how how to say how to comment on the idiocy of this situation, well, but i want to tell you that uah 15 million has also been allocated for road repairs in the settlement of kostyantynivka, well, what else can i say, what signals are we still missing in order to assess the possibilities of this trend that is happening in our heads our officials, they spent less money on the pu

opportunity to choose the direction of his main offensive, or move west towards pokrovsk or north to kostiantynivkathe exact distance of 30 km between both cities, the attack on pokrovsk is more problematic because. logistical problems that will inevitably arise if the front line is extended only in one section. the offensive on kostyantynivka looks more promising, because it is simultaneously being pressed by other troops from the side of the time gap. in addition, it will allow bypassing the defenses of toretsk and new york, where the front line is not changed since 2014. therefore, the occupiers intensified their attack on the liberation of klishchiivka and andriivka in the summer, which, like a bone, stand in opposition to their zaharnytsia plans. despite the difficult situation. under the time gap, the front line has not changed, the forces will continue to receive a part of ivanovsky, without the occupation of which a full-fledged attack on the city is impossible. in summary, it is worth paying attention to... the fact that 2.5 months have passed since the occupation of avdiyivka, and during

sloviansk, kramatorsk, druzhkivka and kostiantynivka are, as we call them, fortress cities, because they are well fortified. all of them are connected as links of one chain. they are in the immediate. geographically close and easy to defend, but if the russians succeed in seizing time in the coming weeks, it could potentially open up a dangerous scenario. the russians will try break through a small seam that connects kostyantynivka and druzhkivka, and thus split the line of defense. two weeks have passed since the approval of the new aid to ukraine by the us congress and the sending of the first arms package within the framework of this aid. russians all this time. continue to advance in donetsk region, when will we finally expect the result of aid at the front? the congressmen themselves admit that they approved the funding too late. i was informed that they are working as fast as possible to get help to the front lines. we had to do it for several months therefore, and i have said this many times. unfortunately, that hasn't happened, so for now i'm just hoping that help arrives as soon

plan to go further to vozdvizhenka to cut the t-0504 route in the section between pokrovsky and kostiantynivka this way, they can perform several tasks at once and try to get behind the defenders of both chasovoy yar and kostyantynivka, as well as... start covering the garrisons in turkey and new york. currently to cutting the track, the russians need to break through more than 10 km, and this is definitely not a quick task. so far this week , the enemy has occupied the space between arkhangelsk and novooleksandrivka, and also increased the control zone between solovyov and sokol. it was in this area that the 47th brigade of the armed forces of ukraine carried out a series of counterattacks and recaptured several plantations. on the naselidove road, the rechists completely occupied netaylovy. umanske and began an offensive on yasnobrodivka and novoselivka persha. at the same time , the armed forces of ukraine are trying to build up the defense of porizhka the wolf, which in this area forms a natural barrier to the offensive of the invaders. the southern front: active battles are taking place a

were working, the enemy is slowly transforming. our cities, all cities, kramatorsk, drushkivka, kostiantynivka, in such destroyed objects, but despite all this, you know that it is surprising that people not only do not leave, but people return, and one more uh, my taka, my observation, uh , if you compare may 22nd, 23rd, 24th, then i will tell you that the number of children is increasing in our cities, which is very, very strange, but now... i see a lot of children returning with their parents , despite the fact that it is very, very hot, even hellish, in the chasivyar direction. if we talk about shelling by the enemy of time yar and not only time yar of kramatorsk, right? well, we were shocked, literally, shocked by the crime of borog, who dropped three guided aerial bombs on the kharkiv region, in particular on a shopping supermarket, fortunately, one did not explode, that does not make it any easier, that is, it is a war crime, deliberately committed against a civilian population, but would like to ask you about the situation with the same guided air bombs or faps that the enemy is curren

troops advance in these two directions, then there are real prospects, even access to the pokrovsk-kostiantynivkahich supplies all ukrainian troops there to the west and south of bakhmut, is such a prospect real, and accordingly, taking the rest of the donetsk region there, as for the pokrovsk-konstantynivka road through myrnograd, then this is just a raked road, in relation to the front edge, and this road is enough important, but in order to reach it to the reed, it is still necessary to drive, walk and crawl for more than 1 km, and this, with the correct organization of the defense, will be quite a difficult task for the russian offensive capabilities. therefore, let's not rush and panic, the task of the military is to properly organize fortification equipment and have reserves for occupying certain positions, and the task of the political leadership is to ensure the needs of the armed forces in full , not only at the expense of aid in the west, but for account of own reserves. to things, about aid from the west, here was a statement from the president's national security adviser jake sullivan
