we hold the severodonetsk river. that's it.l, i can't tell you exactly where our positions are, but we hold a large area with our battalion, our freedom legion. on test volodymyr and what else is the situation in lysychansk, it’s across the river, just a new friendly uh, novotroshet , completely up to uh, fierce battles are also going on there, uh, our guys are standing here, uh, plus-minus, uh, it’s peaceful, but i say infantry when they get there, they just absolutely completely dismantle the city, as in principle they did it - they did it late, like now in severodon, they simply wipe it off the face of the earth with heavy artillery. do you have any of the gifts we were waiting for in your arsenal, or are you just waiting ? so far without heavy weapons, they promise us that it has reinforcements , or from there, from the direction of izyum. yes, but our artillery is 20 times less than that of the enemy, if we had at least a smaller advantage in heavy weapons, it would be much easier for us and the fact is that they don't spa

people's militia, with the support of our army, is now on the outskirts of the city across the river, severodonetsk the village of nizhnyaya, which we managed to find there, and not only the report of geese, and on huseynov it looks like this now, the village of the lower ones, traces of fierce battles are visible everywhere. many buildings are damaged, but the main thing is that it is now completely controlled by the people's militia fighters with the support of the russian army. almost immediately after the liberation of the neighboring village, the beetroots managed to take this settlement as well. much more after the light one. simpler. here everything has already gone much easier, and in general the eye is not the same. they are much weaker. they depart there are no civilians in the village, only abandoned pets, apparently abandoned housing was willingly used by the ukrainian military in some houses. they lived from others, arranged firing positions, and they kept the ammunition at all. in the village store, mines for 120 are a hint of ukrainian, this is all ukrainian , they are not there, the

and the last stronghold of ukrainian nationalists in the lpr, a railway junction across the river, severodonetsk, during fierce battles, the military took control, the village is lower from there, but lisichansk opens a direct road in the houses of local residents, the nationalists arranged firing positions, and stored ammunition in a local store. hint whose ukrainian is all ukrainian, this is theirs, there has always been a warehouse of a bull. here they stood with mortars, right in the village, it turns out that you were beaten from here. understanding the strategic importance of this direction, the radicals partly prepared for the arrival of the defenders of donbass . it was difficult to give up, but the army of the lpr, thanks to the right tactics and coordinated actions, was able to break through the defenses, and the special operations to protect donbas yes, the current geopolitical situation as a whole spoke a lot during the educational marathon new horizons, which started today at several sites at once, everything is organized by the knowledge society, revived on a modern digital platfor

fruit of the ukrainian nationalists in the luhansk republic, the railway junction across the river, severodonetske military lc has already taken control, the village of nizhnyaya opens a direct road to lysichansk. the lower one shows traces of fierce battles everywhere. many buildings are damaged, but the main thing is that it is now completely controlled by people's militia fighters under support of the russian army. almost immediately after the liberation of the neighboring village, svetlichnykh managed to take this settlement as well. much more after the light one. simpler. here everything has already gone much easier and already in general shelter. they are much weaker. they depart there are no civilians in the village, only abandoned domestic animals, apparently abandoned housing willingly used by the ukrainian military in some houses lived from others. arranged firing positions, and the ammunition was completely stored in the village store for 120 hints. whose ukrainian is everything ukrainian it was theirs here that they always had a warehouse of a bull . here they stood with mortars right

uh, from this half-ring , let's say, the severodonetsk river is already behind them, and even if someones it? swimming or i do not know on what means, but the equipment and forces, as it were, the means for conducting combat operations. in principle, they will not be able to take with them the tasks that we, in principle, set for ourselves, that is, leave them completely without equipping the weapons that are located on the territory of severodonetsk, so the result will definitely be in the coming days. he obvious. that is, we do not need to go there somewhere to ask someone something so that, uh, even the whole world already begins to understand that, in principle, the resistance from the ukrainian units is falling. eh, it's just a matter of the near future. he's really clean. true, in the sense that for a long time they kicked to the last resisted. unwilling to recognize our success obtyara. he same tell, please, if understanding, how many vushnikov will be surrounded. how many people are there now? what army you are resisted by those who have not yet escaped and have not yet surrender

near severodonetsk, across the river on a hill , is the city of lysichansk, where the ukrainian army from there. actually strikes from a hill, as on severodonetsk on access roads. here, so here it is. now we are rushing through the forest at a speed of 80 km / h. but run away from the projectile. moreover, it is extremely difficult in the city. ukrainian artillery stands close between the salvo in lysichansk and the arrival in severodonetsk for only a second. so i, having heard the exit of the projectile, do not have time to hide in the entrance. it so happened that the deadly fragments scattered only at the bottom, on time stood on the threshold, the lucky shell exploded just 40 meters away. it's still smoking, it's better to sit inside. the safest place and that's when it should stop, but as soon as we try to go out into the yard another shell arrives. let's wait, it turned out to be a short lull - they know this trick of ukrainian artillerymen in severodonetsk for a long time, but it's clear let's leave then, people, calmed down, begin to leave. then they can again lay down the lc,

by the power of the lpr, the ukrainian military cut off all escape routes from severodonetsk, two bridges across the riverillery, the proletarian bridge was taken by the luhansk defenders under control. like this with small arms, in order not to put the inhabitants at risk of the lc detachment, the nazis are pressing him in the quarters, severodonetsk another stronghold of the militants in lisichansk is located across the river on a hill to storm it in the forehead is extremely difficult for allied forces. russian troops lnr. the militants are bypassing the apu grouping from the south . clinging to this village, the toshkovka is poured around the clock from the artillery of the liberated street. now we are moving to the advanced position of the autoshoe. you need to move quite quickly, because there are a lot of drones in it, adjusting fire very quickly. listen to the arrival now. oh, look, look, together with the fighters of the lpr, the chechen special forces are squeezing the militants out of the streets in a small tozhkovka, in fact, the fate of more than 10,000 ukrainian military is being decided the

with the support of artillery fire, the enemy is advancing in the direction of severodonetsk liman of the linden-white river hostilities continue, the occupiers continue to violate the rights of ukrainian citizens over the temporarily occupied territories, the occupiers captured the city of svitlodarsk in donetsk region , the head of svitlodarsk reported this of the military administration, serhiy goshko, according to him, armed invaders are already walking the streets checking documents from local residents , low-level troops shelled the city of slovyansk , donetsk region, with cluster shells. because the people have already left the houses, the head of the military-civilian administration once again called on the locals to evacuate, according to him, on may 25 there will be a bus to the dnipro, and on thursday to rivne the region is stably tense, this situation persists on the contact line in mykolaiv oblast and kherson oblast, the enemy is setting up defensive lines and is not trying to move forward, the operational command of the south reported, due to constant shelling from a number of territories temp

there is a river and severodonetsk is one of the last city is that the ukrainians hold on the east bankg to bypass the heavy fortifications of severodonetsk, come all the way round and enveloped those troops, cutting them off from the back foot up it was a gamble m and if it had paid off it would have been a significant tactical advantage to them. but it was also a risk and it seems it has backfired spectacularly. the ukrainians had advance warning, they had targeted the river crossing and when those vehicles tried to come across the pontoon bridges that went down, a huge barrage of ukrainian artillery came in. they have wiped out a vast number of vehicles. this was a big gamble by the russians, and as british intelligence have said today it shows one that maybe shows the levels of desperation, they are trying to force the issue and it has obviously backfired. tt trying to force the issue and it has obviously backfired.— obviously backfired. it shows the firht is obviously backfired. it shows the fight is very _ obviously backfired. it shows the fight is very much _ obviously backfired.

directly concerns two cities, borivskoe and orphanage, but it is precisely from around severodonetsk to get to the siverskyi river, to ensure the encirclement of our garrison right up to this area, are there actually risks of encircling north donetsk, in fact, such risks theoretically exist, as well as the possibility of withdrawing the withdrawal of our troops from north donetsk, if this becomes necessary, it is also possible to continue three and the defense for by the way, the bakhmut-lysichanskyi highway, which provides the main source of supply for logistics facilities and military units, is now under attack a few days ago, we demonstrated that at the expense of the reserves, we repelled the russian troops who tried to take this route under control, so in any case, we have the possibility of using the reserves to expand the area that we can control. the question is in what format will our the general staff has such opportunities to strengthen reserves and protect our soldiers in this zone. by the way, i read today that russia has already spent half of the medical budget on the e-e missiles that arrived in uk

if we now see, we have an infographic that shows the two cities of lysichansk, severodonetsk, which are separated by a riverance of up to 2 km, and here we can better see the number of bridges, which are about four , one destroyed, another bridge was fired upon and actually destroyed of these bridges really in a certain way complicates the logistics of the divisions that defend severodonetsk, that is, in fact, the hostilities here continue, there is a risk, relatively speaking, of the influence of our troops with the risk of encirclement, as the russian side is trying to demonstrate but the ukrainian soldiers courageously hold their lines and now it depends on what decision the general staff will make. by the way, here we see a video of yuri butusov, which caused such big statements by some politicians that and let's start a conversation about this situation with botus wider than the history between the volume of the president and yuri butusov, the head of the censor.info censor is just a homocensor and the publication is called valery the king, the head of the center for communication content security, mr.

developing abroad, uh, the offensive is both towards severodonetsk and towards then, lysichansk or now, unfortunately, is on the other side of the riverwill be more difficult with this from severodonetsk already, but in fact fall into operational environment according to different data. this is about, a grouping of about 4,000 people. this will be a serious blow, and for those troops that are now standing south of the ukrainian raisins, because they will be deprived of the opportunity, but under their feet, yes from the side, and the east and under the raisins continues the same way, and heavy fighting is going on very hard russian advance troops to the side, and the slavic grenade agglomeration gradually opens up the enemy’s defense, he is very active, and artillery, moreover, artillery, like soviet production. so there are already western samples there already. and they pulled up 777, uh, which they were able to hit with high-precision ammunition, they were looking for, and the british appeared - this is including a in our artillery, but we are slowly trying to move forward, colleagues are forward there. yes thank you. well , we wil

they are holding onto every bit of ground even when it is the wrong side of the river, severodonetskr every metre, a price in blood, in supplies, russia are bringing forward all their equipment as a result of that iteration, russia has calculated they can keep pushing, the west will get bored, we have inflation, is by enrolling oil prices, politics to worry about, they are calculating that means over time ukrainian support will wane and they will grind their way forward to victory. ukraine as you saw, president zelensky visited kharkiv, thatis president zelensky visited kharkiv, that is one of the areas they are trying to push back to take attention away from the donbas. i think ukraine are trying to push back at kherson. they are trying to find ways to push back on the whole having to hold out, hold out every day and make the russians pay and slow everything down. we day and make the russians pay and slow everything down.— day and make the russians pay and slow everything down. we have seen how fiercely — slow everything down. we have seen how fiercely and _ slow everything down. we

there, where, what, by the way, he is from, well, he comes from there, from that river, and from the fact that severodonetsktured somewhere in the luhansk region, well, relatively speaking, this is just the price of these victories, but it just looks ridiculous for a huge russia, where there are a lot of problems in general, absolutely we we are talking about the certainty of tactical victories that don't really exist yet. yes, and there won't be. i hope. but together with the operational challenge, we have more potential of our army because time is working on us. if we considered what it was about, it was yesterday did he say today that we can do better? we are advancing slowly because we are providing a humanitarian corridor. to what extent is this true? we know. in fact, how many people are dying there? today, four civilians died in donetsk region as a result of shelling. well, that's all. after all, the ukrainian army receives the help from our western partners that we were promised, because today we are actually fighting on the whistle of european civilization against these so today the head of the com

the problems for ukraine are that the city is on the wrong bank of the river from the point of view ukrainian forces and severodonetsk in this regard is a vulnerable city, it is really strategically important considering that it is the last piece of the luhansk region and as soon as russia gains control over the entire region, it will be able to declare that it has achieved one of the declared goals of this war, yes. they still have to conquer the entire donetsk region, this is a much bigger question again, it is interesting that the russians decided to attack the city, they did not completely isolate it, their attempts to do so failed, they decided not to wait, but to attack the city directly i think this shows why it is so important for them to achieve success there and also a chance that there is another because the rivers are high up there, territories that will still take you. i will not be surprised if the ukrainian defense concentrated its forces there and also to keep the roads open so how long can they keep the russians as long as possible if we talk about the supply lines for the ukrainian side it is diffic

the bridge between severodonetsk was damaged. across the riverlater the same day, the bridge was totally. destroyed >> now ukrainian officials tell me that if russia is successful in taking those twin cities, essentially argument at that point the whole of luhansk oblast, which will help them in their effort to take the battle for donbas. ukrainian officials tell me they are holding their own, but if luhansk, owes russia will use that for momentum. jonathan? >> yes the russian advance in so many places has stalled. and on officials said they are making some progress there in that part of the donbas. we just came into this segment talking about sanctions and russia is saying, if you lift the sanctions, we will allow some of this grain to go through. but meanwhile, ukraine is saying, we are running out of weapons and this is the moment where we need to be heavily armed. so else is ukraine asking for from its allies? >> speaking to that senior ukrainian official, he was expressing his disappointment. said that the united states had promised to provi

severodonetsk and or now, in fact. this is one agglomeration, which is divided by a river and, in fact, lisichansk is located on a dominant height, therefore, approach lisichansk without controlling severodonetsk and without a to organize an environment. as a matter of fact, the hall is now as virtually impossible, therefore, rather from here. and the conclusion suggests itself that the armed forces of ukraine and other armed formations of the kiev regime, which is located in severodonetsk lysichansk, can, in case of successful actions of the allied forces of the lugansk people's republic of the russian federation to be surrounded. well, here is the well-known word boiler known back in 2014. it is also known that the eugenshme in the ukrainian general staff are well aware of this sad prospect and are now trying to break between a military pragmatic decision to withdraw troops, if donetsk is now, and a political non-pragmatic decision to leave the troops and, in fact, leave them. well, probably the environment after the environment. we all know what usually happens and, in fact, golovaisky’s have observed such actions more

and on the approaches to severodonetsk that's why severodonetsk must be understood geographically from lysychansk, it is separated by the siversky river, the day of the city, in fact, there is only one bridge under our control, that's why they want to cut off and surround our group in severodonetsk, and from the other side, they are advancing on the side of the newbies on this bakhmut track, that's why uh-uh that but go from their side and the reason is that , as i say once again, they prevail namely with this fire, with their support, they simply destroy everything in their path, there is information that uh-uh - m in fact, the occupiers fired 26 times and damaged 24 houses. if we talk about luhansk region, there is an understanding that the evacuation in particular from severodonetsk and, if i am not mistaken, from lysychansk and severodonetsk is actually only temporarily stopped because the shelling of the road itself continues. a few weeks before today, the regional military administration asked people to evacuate while there are still such opportunities, but we see that there is still a large a number of local residents remained

a shoulder here. today the occupiers blew up the bridge across the borova river in the direction from rubizhnye to severodonetske first time they did it exactly eight years ago in 2014 when they were retreating from here history repeated itself, the evacuation from the frontier became impossible, this is our defenders in the frontier, war is war, and lunch is on schedule during the past day , the orcs destroyed about 60 residential buildings, in particular , and a whole quarter in severodonetsk, in vrubivka , orich, golden komyshuvas, toshkivka, troitsky , there are no more intact houses in the occupied territories of belokurakinsk, asfativka, troitsky districts the rashists are using for the deployment of their troops in the direction of novopskov starobilsk novoaidar, locals record how the invaders have been moving there en masse for more than a day their equipment, but this entire horde is unable to do anything. our defenders are holding their defenses firmly. this whole influx cannot pass a small part of the luhansk region. third place. now we have more to learn than anything, but the boys are holding them.

the allied units and formations, but despite this, severodonetsk has already been blocked from three sides. actually, lisichansk is located across the river, it is located on a dominant height and, judging by the logic of hostilities now, and those groupings of russian forces that are operating, and west of severodonetsk. and lisichanskaya as well as a grouping of units of the formation of the russian army, which will howl south of the raisins . ukrainian formations carry huge losses. this, in fact, is not an exaggeration at all, but constantly new ones are delivered to the front line, and the mobilized citizens of ukraine are not trained, but personnel. uh, in fact, they do not spare people, the kiev regime has already been going on for quite a long time, according to the data on prisoners of war with whom we communicated in many loss units. a-a make up more than 670% of the expert perform, not trained mobilized, among whom there are volunteers . of course, there are forcibly mobilized, but at the same time forces and means. and the kyiv regime gathered in in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bseverodonetsk or american , really large-scale artill

severodonetsk in order to stop the offensive of the occupiers, the head of luhansk oblast, serhii gaidai, said that the defenders of luhansk region blew up several railway and road bridges across the borova river that the occupiers were unable to advance in the direction of severodonetsk and lysychansk, the russians had already stopped the russians in luhansk region under roars, effectively depriving the enemy of the possibility of a free approach to severodonetsk from in the north, russians are collecting data on women who live in the occupied territories of luhansk and donetsk regions, they will be called up for service to the paws of the self-proclaimed lpr and the verkhovna rada commissioner for human rights lyudmila denisova reported. as part of the so-called mobilization, the russian military collects data of women aged 18 to 45. the occupiers are primarily interested in accountants , cooks, nurses, laboratory workers, drivers and cleaners. forces for offensive operations in zaporozhye last day, the occupiers destroyed 14 settlements with artillery, only in the town of nuts their shells damaged three the department of the hospital and the orthodox church were seriously destroyed and in g

and they crossed a key river out there near severodonetsk, and then apparently the ukrainians had thebased on the soda straw view that you and i are getting of that battlefield, what is your assessment of where russian efforts stand in the east right now? >> they -- the russians continue to be disorganized from a component of combined arms operations. indirect fire, direct fires, and aviation assets. so it is a largely artillery based army, mass fires, less frequent use of precision weapons, and when we talk about mobility, countermobility, when you're relied upon a single pontoon bridge, in the vicinity, that is a huge opportunity to exercise, by the ukrainian army, to frustrate the russian movement, to the west. so i think that we organized russian army, they have failed to make good use of the time they took to reorganize. so it is -- they have not fixed the sins of the past that existed and the initial assault on kyiv. >> soviet military strategy, just pound and pound and pound with military artillery. ben wallace in a speech yesterday, he made an interesting point, the russian so

affairs of the armed forces in the severodonetsk region, retreating from svetlodarskaya, ukrainian militants. they blew up the bridge in the village of luganskoye across the riveresidents reported that they also saw the ukrainian military near the ugolgorsk state district power station where they are preparing to blow up the dam, but the offensive of the allied troops - this does not affect it in any way will not be stopped, moreover, those remaining near the svetlodar small group will be deprived of any - or the possibility of getting out of the encirclement did not help to turn the tide, even western weapons, which had already been delivered directly to the donbass, the russian ministry of defense published footage of the combat work of calculations, 152. millimeter self-propelled howitzers hyacinth s, it was as a result of the counter-battery fight of the hyacinth battery that an entire unit of american howitzers was destroyed. three sevens or how are we joking here m. look at three axes. 94 three shells prepared. this type of weapon can fire at a distance of up to 28.5 km. you can destroy the strongholds of the enemy’s blocked gaps, well, with direct hits o

now they are going for severodonetsk, or now another military commissar is reporting nikolai dolgachev. an attempt by ukrainian formations to force the seversky donets river was successfully repulsed; the enemy was defeated; his crossing was destroyed without support and supply grouping. neo-nazis in severodonetsk doomed battles for severodonetsk are already going on in the vicinity of the city, some lines of fortifications are trenches in the hands of the fighters of the people's militia of the lc. here you can see the road that the ukrainian formations controlled from these positions occupied residential buildings, here a kindergarten and fire on units of the lugansk republic, retreating, the enemy mines everything, even residential buildings in which people remain, this house was surrounded by minami so the elderly woman could not get out until the sapper lnr, they didn’t remove the stretch marks and didn’t neutralize the mines grandmother. you can go out. you can already walk freely in the donbass, a special military operation has changed a lot of people. now they help each other more in the frontline zone, it helps out and even the music sounds diffe

hottest spot in donbas, says military expert serhii zgurets from severodonetsk and lysychansk - these are two cities that are separated by a river , just the staging of hostilities in the city - this is the direction that causes quite difficult challenges for the russian troops because our troops are set on the task of maximum tasks of maximum losses of the enemy, well, it is clear that severodonetsk and slavic lysychansk are important cities and important points in order to to oppose the russian occupation and not allow the russians to enter the administrative borders of the luhansk region. how do you, general, assess the current situation on the eastern front, not only around severodonetsk? yansk is actually very difficult. and we knew about it even before the president and uh, there is information that ours are actually fighting in the city. we need to decide how we will hold the city and make another fortress. well, in this way. we will still destroy these cities. do we have to retreat across the river and keep the defense there already beyond the river ? they are also called special operations, and we need to, by conducting

situation, but sivilskyi is one of the dotsyu, and in fact in this city the river gave siverskyi donetsk the name of it, not severodonetskon is almost completely pro-ukrainian, they are. well, they really speak in such categories that we had a salary, we had a job, we had everything, that is, there is no patriotic component of this uh, their ideology, it is more so uh, economic, but nevertheless, they saw with their own eyes what the russian peace entails. well, at least conversation hmm, speaking with us, they exclusively take the position that they want to belong to a calm, prosperous ukraine and there is no need to disturb everyone else with that nonsense , and they express this, and this is not the first time for well, there we worked in the frontier and so on in the villages with this e- it's not the first time i heard such thoughts in this very place. thank you very much. take care of yourself and may god protect you, your brothers and sisters, all those who fight for ukraine today with weapons in their hands and protect us. petro kuzyk combatant of the volunteer battalion freedom and now near severodonetsk he is f

allied units and formations, but despite this, severodonetsk has already been blocked from three sides. ah. as a matter of fact, lisichansk is across the river is on a dominant height and, ah, judging by the logic of hostilities. now, uh, those groupings of russian forces that operate west of severodonetsk and lisichanskaya, as well as that grouping of units of the russian army unit that is fighting south of raisins, will do everything possible to ensure that, uh, the encirclement of the new cauldron, but became for the formation the kiev regime is a reality, despite the fact that fierce hostilities continue, and hmm, while ukrainian formations suffer huge losses. this, in fact, is not an exaggeration at all, uh, mobilized citizens of ukraine are constantly delivered to the edge in front of it - this is not trained, but personnel. uh, in fact, they do not spare people, and the kiev regime has already been going on for quite a long time, according to the data of military prisoners with whom we talked in many units, but they account for more than 670% the expert is performed by unusual mobilized, among whom there are volunteers, of course, if

there, they are holding on to severodonetsk, eh, there are still partly the lans who couldn't capture the surrounding villages near rubizhne. well, across the dinets riverchansk, why is this village caught, because they are trying to completely cut off the luhansk region from the ukrainian territories and to take places like severodonetsk and lysychansk, popasna , mountainous, that is, to make a certain such cauldron, that is why there are fierce and tough battles, well, by the way, our general staff reports that on the lymansky the direction you are talking about as a result of the assault by the russians. unfortunately, they captured the northern college of shandrigolovo - this is the donetsk region of the northern donetsk region. they are continuing the offensive in the limansky, popasnian, northern donetsk and avdiiv directions in the kurakhiv direction , with the support of artillery, the enemy is trying to resume the offensive in the direction of novomykolaivka in the mariupol direction, he says continues to block our units in the area of ​​the azov-steel plant, mr. vitaly. and what about you personally, well, on the eve of tomorrow's so-called vi

allied units and formations, but despite this, severodonetsk has already been blocked from three sides. ah. as a matter of fact, lisichansk is across the river is on a dominant height and, ah, judging by the logic of hostilities. now, uh, those groups of russian forces that are active, and to the west, severodonetsk. and lisichanskaya, as well as that grouping of units of the formation of the russian army, which is fighting south of the raisins, will do everything possible to ensure that the encirclement of the new cauldron hmm, but become a reality for the formation of the kiev regime, despite the fact that fierce hostilities continue, and hmm this ukrainian formations are suffering huge losses. as a matter of fact, it is not communication that is constantly brought to the forefront of new, but mobilized citizens of ukraine - this is not trained, but personnel . uh, in fact, they do not spare people, and the kiev regime has already been going on for quite a long time, according to the military prisoners with whom we communicated in many loss units, and they make up more than 670% of the expert perform unusual mobilized, among whom there are

severodonetsk. in this drone footage an armoured column is trying to cross a river, but ukrainian artillery — recentlyrican howitzers — appears to have destroyed an entire battalion tactical group, which can comprise up to 900 men as well as tanks and armoured personnel carriers. finally, on the black sea coast, attention today has been focused on the small but strategically important snake island. russian forces are in control here, but have been under attack from the air. ammunition dumps, smaller vessels and a surface to air missile launcher have been destroyed. control of snake island could determine which side controls this stretch of the black sea. clive myrie there would that look at what's going on in ukraine. let's get some of the day's other news... at least 27 people have been killed and more than a0 injured in a fire in new delhi. the blaze started on the first floor of a four—storey building, and witnesses say several people jumped to safety as it took hold. more than 30 fire trucks and ambulances are at the scene. —— more than 20. a swift moving wildfire in california has burned down at

almost silence, because all the attention was chained to the severodonetsk salient and to the epic attempts of the aggressors to force the riverka. by the way, the russian brigade that forced that river of ours lost 90% of its personnel and now all the remnants of that brigade have been withdrawn for reanimation to the belgorod region. however, there is now another unit of the russian army in this area, which is trying to break through our defenses under the cover of artillery and aviation in order to achieve success in this area. the occupiers have already redeployed part of the troops from under the raisin, especially near e-e sloviansk , here the priority is the directions of the enemy are precisely aimed at advancing in the direction of liman lysychansk severodonetsk bakhmut and maryinka, the goal is to ensure the capture of otsychansk severodonetsk and to take control of the lysychansk bakhmut road this is a continuation of the story about the encirclement of our troops in the north donets zone, but we understand that there will be such a continuation as directly with the crossing under belogorivka . of defense and artill

cross small rivers, it was possible to gain a foothold on the outskirts of the donetsk and in small settlements and settlements, and which are located in the immediate vicinity of severodonetsk be afraid to tie up there now. the main task is to squeeze out. armed forces of ukraine in lysichansk, it is located across the river on a hill. as a matter of fact, another grouping, which operates east of the raisins, closes this cauldron on top of the lysichanskaya one, if the plan is realized, then a really large grouping, according to various sources, from 8 to 15,000 people, and the formation of the kiev regime may end up in the next cauldron in the next environment, despite successful actions allied forces of the lugansk people's republic of the army and russia and other formations that work from different directions. it can generally be called such a large slavic-kramatorsk direction, despite this, the armed forces of ukraine still retain the ability to conduct an active defense , using reactive artillery. it is trying to strike and units of the russian army, units of the people's militia of the luhansk people's republic are hitting residential areas, one of the main tasks of

after severodonetsk, there is lysychansk, which is in a more favorable position on more favorable borders, and there will be more favorable positions there, and there will be the siverskyi donets river to keep him, well, for as long as possible, but for today, i understand that the armed forces of ukraine have a chance to get severodonetsk. inexplicably hit long- range targets, ukraine is very much looking forward to them, high-ranking ukrainian officials say that the usa has not announced anything yet, but various publications are already writing about it, for example, reuters writes that the usa does not plan to give ukraine such weapons, the washington post wrote that there is no final decision, tell me if it is clear to you what is the reason for such hesitation, what can they be wary of in washington when they do not make a decision for so long to give ukraine these weapons, well , it is very strange to hear such a question from you , because yesterday the white house gave a clear answer clarification regarding these jet systems first joe biden announced that they will be provided but not with full ammunition with ammunition to joe biden yes well yes and then and then the admin

severodonetsk. in this drone footage an armoured column is trying to cross a river, but ukrainian artillery — recently have destroyed an entire battalion tactical group, which can comprise up to 900 men as well as tanks and armoured personnel carriers. finally, on the black sea coast, attention today has been focused on the small but strategically important snake island. russian forces are in control here, but have been under attack from the air. ammunition dumps, smaller vessels and a surface to air missile launcher have been destroyed. control of snake island could determine which side controls this stretch of the black sea. the battlefield picture, what what about the continuing the battlefield picture, what what about the continuing humanitarian cost? the un says more than 6 million people have fled ukraine now since the war began. some families have reached the uk and for children, perhaps carrying the psychological scars of everything they have had to go through, they are also having to grapple with perhaps an unfamiliar language and new skills. elaine dunkley has that story... so much has chang

horizon compared to north donetsk, plus there is the river siverskyi donetsk i understand that it is easier to defend lysychansk than in severodonetsk, why then the ukrainian army will not, well , no, will not retreat from our strategic line for better defense, well, severodonetsk is the center of luhansk region, first of all, this is ideological, if i understand what could be said, yes, we must surrender and not defend well, this is the center of luhansk oblast today and putin will jump out tomorrow and shout. we have completely occupied luhansk oblast. well, our goals have been achieved, so they don't allow him to do that. and what about lysychansk? yes , it is located higher up and is defended. lysychansk is even more of an opportunity because of the siverskyi donets river and the fact that they see one bridge like the one we rebuilt. they also destroyed other bridges like that, but they don't have a very large carrying capacity, so the spices from the ldr well, well, first of all, they throw this is the whole turn, the one that was collected in luhansk region, who fled from ukraine, they didn't want to defend, they sat down, and

operates in severodonetsk, is supplied and connected with the main forces, and on the territory of donbass, the formation the kiev regime about the supply goes through lisichansk across the river. until now, three bridges are operating. and in fact, from the lisichansk formation of the kiev regime, they use the route, lisichansk bakhmut, the old name of this settlement, artemovsk is the main route used by the militants of the kiev regime in order to supply , e, the personnel of the armed forces of ukraine in the north of donetsk well, despite this, the grouping of the russian army and the allied forces of the luhansk people's republic is also operating from the side of the popas and eastern raisins part of the formation of the russian army put pressure on a unit of the armed forces of ukraine that operate in the area of ​​​​yampol, which operates in the area, and the estuary, respectively, now we can say that a threat has formed, the encirclement of a large e, a grouping of forces and means of forming the kiev regime, a in severodonetsk and lysichansk, while the western side from lysychansk still operates, and the logistics chains of the armed forces of ukraine, and here we ne

marching in the luhansk people's republic in the area of ​​severodonetsk or lisichansk, these two cities are separated by the seversky donets riverortified area of ​​​​ukrainian troops on the territory of the lpr. about 10,000 soldiers of the armed forces remain there , the head of the lc. leonid pasechnik said that a significant part of severodonetsk is already under the control of russian units and the people's militia of the republic are fighting in urban areas, therefore, the key task of the military is to help civilians and preserve the infrastructure as much as possible, report by our special correspondent in the donbass, aleksey chebotarev okay, yes, the self-propelled art installation of the carnation is rapidly occupying a new combat position of the ukrainian formation, in the direction of which they have to fire retreat, therefore lugansk mercerists have to get out of place. there are ranges where we do not reach, then there we move and work much closer to the front. it so happened that the work of this crew self-propelled from the carnation installation. we filmed a week ago, then the guys fired propaganda shells at th

directions, which is already being successfully implemented along the seversky donetsk river in in the direction of severodonetskchnaya nizhnyaya a along the bakhmud route itself, directly from the bit is already on the palms and orekhovo and you can explain, this is for our viewers, who still do not quite know the geography of the lugansk region of the luhansk people's republic what does it mean to take these settlements, we cut off their retreat. we are actually encircling the area of ​​lisichanskaya severodonetsk, or are there some other more significant events? so, this is first of all fencing the enemy from our settlements repelling them, that is, stopping the shelling of peaceful settlements of the luhansk people's republic is the first, the second is advancement along the bakhmud highway, so that there is an understanding that only the bakhmut highway is an artery connecting the city, lugansk, the city of artyomovsk first of all, which are ukrainian, but modern decommunizers. they called the bakhmuts again. yes , once it was, so, accordingly, of course, due to this, this artery allows you to cut off a who

severodonetsk, in the east of ukraine. as a russian armoured column tries to cross a river, ukrainian artillery appears to have destroyed ann tactical group, including dozens of tanks and armoured personnel carriers. ukrainian officials say this is the third attack in three days. but on the front line near zaporizhzhia, the russian assault continues to inflict heavy damage on family homes and people's lives. shells just missed this house. further east in mariupol, satellite imagery shows the extent of russia's relentless bombardment of azovstal steelworks. the last remaining ukrainian fighters in this city have been here for weeks. ukraine is still trying to get them out alive. in the black sea near odesa, russian forces continue to control the strategically important snake island, but they've been under attack from the air with military equipment destroyed. ukraine's defence minister said it is now preparing for a new, long phase of war, and it planned to arm i million fighters. this as ukraine's president claimed another six settlements in the kharkiv region were restored to its control within the last day, vowing for th

the efforts of the russian troops are aimed at encircling, severodonetsk or now these are large industrial cities located on both sides of the riverrsky donets do they this is by attacking severodonetsk in three directions, trying to surround the city and cut off supply routes from the south from the frontier, and they are achieving some success. recently they broke through the defenses in the area of ​​the city of gold in fact some of these places are on the coastline. i visited in person a couple of months ago and they were perfectly reinforced to the point that they were able to get through. these fortifications indicate that the russian troops were able to achieve real success. so now they'll try to surround them to cut off the lines supplies. and as one senior politician here said to create a second mariupol and try to besiege, severodonetsk or now here in the east in russia has stepped up the offensive in the donbass of its target, the last remaining city under ukrainian control in the lugansk region. how close is russia to capturing the entire lugansk region. wow very close. you're right. in general, there is an increase in

in seversky donets . near severodonetsk, on the other hand, the occupiers themselves found themselves surrounded, they were allowed to cross to the southern bank of the riverthen the ukrainians opened a dense artillery barrage the fire and the river overflowed, mines were released as a result of the crossing, the russians lost the opportunity to retreat. during the shelling, one of the first volleys of american m-77 howitzers was fired. colonel kashchenko says that through loudspeakers he offered the russians to surrender, but the ukrainian is not sure whether they heard these calls from some russians the army managed to break out of the encirclement by swimming across the river in the opposite direction, the ukrainian military showed at least 15 broken russian vehicles and an area of ​​the forest where pieces of russian uniforms hang from the trees did not see hope for peace with these words italian prime minister mario drage spoke about his phone conversation with putin on the eve of the fight, explained that he initiated it to ask if something could be done to unblock the grain stored in ukraine, otherwise the food crisis in the world will take on gigan

cities of lysychansk and severodonetsk with further access to the administrative border of the luhansk region in the liman direction , the enemy's crossing of the siverskyi donets river belogorivka is not excluded for fire cover of the forcing, the invaders deployed units of rocket and barrel artillery in our north donets direction the enemy, supported by artillery, conducts assaults in the directions of toshkivka and ustinivka in the bakhmut direction, the enemy improved the tactical position in the area of ​​the village of vasylivka in the avdiiv kurakhivka and novopavlov directions, the enemy carried out fire damage to our units using artillery and aviation in the zaporizhzhia direction, the occupiers are strengthening the grouping of troops for renewal offensive actions in the direction of vasylivka kamianske carry out regrouping in the south-buzka direction, the enemy continues to concentrate the main efforts on holding the occupied lines in the kryvyi rih and mykolaiv directions the enemy does not stop artillery shelling of the positions of our troops in the black sea and azov operational zones the situation has not undergone significant changes the enemy conti

severodonetsk and lysycha nsk severodonetsk and lysychansk are in the far east of ukrainian territory in the donbas, sitting on a riverial geographicalfeature on which has been a crucial geographical feature on this war. why this matters is because these two cities are the last bit of the luhansk oblast, the hansk region controlled by the ukrainians. taking that has been a key strategic aim of the russians, basically, since they refocus their objective after their failure to take kyiv. what we are seeing is the russians really putting all of their energy, huge amounts of artillery bombardment, of men, into trying to take the last bit of this key region, and once they do that, if they do that, that president clinton can sell as a victory to people back in russia but however, in his way, thousands of ukrainian troops who are very well dug in, they are in the city of severodonetsk, an old industrial kind of heartland. i have been there. it has warrants of tunnels and bunkers. it is a heavily built—up area. has been very heavily destroyed but it gives them a lot of good defensive positions. if the ukrainians can hold on,

severodonetsk is functioning humanitarian cargo was delivered there yesterday . luhansk is a fortress. 400 russian soldiers died when they tried to force siverskyi donetsk . the a river in order to surround the ukrainian forces in the north donetsk region, but they themselves found themselves surrounded, our defenders destroyed the expensive crossing of grates across the river siverskyi donetsk and in this way stopped occupiers from avdiyivka in donetsk region, rescuers are on their way as a result of nighttime enemy shelling , the fire station and equipment are damaged, the further implementation of the service is at risk, therefore, the leadership decided to deploy the fire fighters to a safer settlement for the sake of saving lives, the russian occupiers, with the help of grenades, so to speak, clean the basements where they are exposed to shelling the civilian population, this is evidenced by the interception of the sbu, according to one of the invaders, this is, they say, a common practice, and among he calls his achievements the torture of the civilian population. i know that they are already building a third one in the occupied south of ukraine. this was state

severodonetsk is surrounded on three sides. that is, they blew up the bridge on one side, but then again, maybe not across the river, but the movement this does not interfere. but. then, when she restores the city, of course, it will have to be restored. that is, respectively, this is a resource and time, if we look carefully, then many destructions of infrastructure facilities on the other hand, they are caused by this understanding of the fact that they will not return here anymore and everything needs to be done in order to create problems in the future, donetsk has luhansk to restore this territory here, that is, this is not a military attempt to cause non-military damage , and pure economic for so to speak, for which will manifest itself during the subsequent recovery. no , there is some minimal, of course, military damage , but this is purely miniature here. to explain that there is none at all, of course. understood then. let's get to the main summaries. well, the main reports say in what you know, now uh, kiev uh, trying to find a victory anywhere trying to find and not by chance. he is trying to play the card of kharkov, wh
