often now, because it is precisely the region of suzha, the suzha people, that is , there were two suzhaundreds of the sumy regiment and , in the end, a huge number of serfs, so at the end of the 19th century, in principle , the distribution of nationality looked like so that it was more than 20%, well, if we are not talking about the kurt province, but the territory of the kurt region at the beginning of the 20th century, sorry, already soviet times, in 26-27 years, then it seems to me that it was about a quarter the population is ukrainians, these are compact places of residence of this western kursk region, eastern slobojan region. everything else was the territory inhabited by these descendants of moscow serfs, who were ethnically different, so we say that these were transferred serfs, that is, people without specific identification, but a kind that appeared later there in the 19th century, when they were told that they were great russians, so for us it is an interesting territory, it is not always ukrainian everywhere, and even fables about, let's say... the presence of a huge ukrai

on this topic, the stations in three cities on... closed for passengers, we are talking about the suzhakorenevo and psel stations, there, the press service of the russian railways notes that, with the exception of the suzha and koraniv districts , train traffic in the region is carried out regularly, well , they have already started there too evacuation, in short what is happening is happening, absolutely logical things are happening, because russia, which attacked us, which is killing us, must understand that for its actions one must bear the consequences, and that if there is. normal, when the war goes to the territory of the enemy, so these are all completely logical things, but now , besides yes, besides the railway logistics, which is now all lost, because they also transferred military cargo, there is also a very important golden key to russian gas , which enters right there through the gas distribution system and goes to orban, to fiets and in general to europe, that is what we will talk about now. andrii zekrevsky, chairman of the board of the association. nafta and gas of ukrai

first of all, it is a direct route without populated areas p-200, that is, which allows you to reach suzha very quickly, well, for example, from the territory of ukraine, as an option. and the second option, the second point, is the rynsk suja highway, which for some reason no one pays attention to, but this there is a main route of support for groups of troops such as kursk, bryansk, and bielgorod, that is, if we are talking about highways, the majority of support takes place through this particular route, which goes through suja a. if we talk about landscape, relief and landscape features, we have already mentioned the river suja, which is convincing, but not only it. a little south of p-200 are the settlements of oleshnya, gogolivka, and tarubanshchyna. and it is to the south of these settlements that the river flows oleshnya and it is a natural persuasion for the forces advancing along the p-200. which are stationed in oleshna, gogol in kytarubaenshchyna, they did not receive a flank attack from the south, i.e. from the left flank. on the other hand, if we are talking about such settle

is on a they are forcing suzha is on a hill.e forcing russia to react. it is cutting the men and at the moment, it men and machinery. at the moment, it is ukraine doing the dictating. what kyiv will point out is that while we are making a kyiv will point out is that while we are mai than the russian forces are is more than the russian forces are making in a day in eastern ukraine. crucially, those forces are still moving forward. it is not going to be easy. the same general came up with the counteroffensive, is now the head of ukraine's armed forces. he is responsible for the counteroffensive is in 2022. they blindsided russia. he used of surprise. misdirection. use the of surprise. when things went badly for ukraine, it was when the fighting became slow and static. that favoured russia. we have seen that again. they have moved in and they are expanding at quite a rate. they have taken a lot of territory very quickly, but russia will gradually divert more and more resources to slowing that 0nce once you have positions be once yo

, the city of suzha, because the russian public says, that... it seems that the ukrainian military controlsarticular, the suja gas measuring station, which is a key border facility for the transportation of russian gas to europe, about this and also about what kind of energy situation we will have in the country, further, let's talk with oleksiy orzhel, stay with us. tired of the mess in the kitchen, constantly having to sort through a bunch of pans to find the right one you need. set savory pro unpack tv. savory pro pans fold into one another and take up so little space, and the price is only from uah 999. the saivory pro set is five pans from one to 9 liters with lids for any occasion. use them on the stove and even in the oven. pans are made of damage-resistant stainless steel. savory pans pro will serve you for many years. from now on, food heats up evenly, cooks quickly and... no burning, and how elegant they are, laconic design and such bright colors, and the main feature - thoughtful folding handles, keep one-water pots, no more clutter in the cupboards, sevory pots pro takes up almo

from kursk was considered as one of the probable ones, and actually it is interesting that it is this suzhalities are currently ongoing, it is so uh, it is connected to kursk by only one road, and actually it is quite difficult for the enemy to secure this area there the front, where the hostilities are currently unfolding, why am i talking about the hostilities, because actually somewhere... about such a planned operation that began yesterday morning, where we had confirmation that the operations are taking place, that in particular, the captured russian captured, we saw destroyed russian equipment, there are t-62 tanks, which the enemy tried to pull up on trawls, we saw a video of a destroyed russian k-52 helicopter, that is, we saw there, well, the actions of our... units with new tactical signs, there are strikers, hummers, although these the videos were taken right on the border of the sumy and mykur regions, and now, what we have this morning, based again on the statements of the russian side, which initially yesterday gave information that there were raids from the ukrainian side, th

, there are precisely the combats 30 km from suzha, where our fourth armored personnel carriers wereuch difficult battles, and now we are talking about what is happening, first of all, and further, the advance in the direction of kursk. rylsk and the expansion of the flank east of suja and then the use of the second echelons, which are fixed at certain areas, which are the most effective for defense. the adversary is trying to bring up reserves, they are really throwing reserves, but these reserves are being destroyed in ambushes, as it was, in particular with the attack on the russian column near rylsk, haimar themselves, and here is an important point, i am waiting for more confirmations of use. on this one, on that one bridgehead, because we know that this operation was planned by the ukrainian side in secret, our western partners then accepted that it was all okay, the defending country can act as it sees fit, but so far there has only been one such case the use of haimars in the area where at least 300 russian soldiers were destroyed, yesterday we saw that zelensky sets the task

on august 12 , a video appeared online showing ukrainian forces entering the russian city of suzha. also, russian telegram channels state that ukrainian forces are already bringing heavy equipment to suzha itself. in addition, a video appeared on the internet, on which ukrainian military personnel are allegedly present in the village of guevo, kursk region. and already on the morning of august 12, a video of the movement of ukrainian armored vehicles in the bilovsky district of the kursk region in the direction of the village of bilytsia appeared on the internet. radio liberty journalists identified the video and confirmed the movement of the military. in the direction of the squirrel, went, went, crosses, everything as it should be, as it should be from a large-caliber machine gun, no flag, nothing, everything as it should be, the war in our country today is interesting. come on, guys, we have such an interesting war today. earlier, the head of the bilovsky district called on all residents to evacuate due to the offensive of the armed forces. the evacuation was also announced from

there is a very popular opinion that ukraine is supposedly taking back its own, and here the city of suzha all mentioned, as soon as the man in the frame mentioned that tsuzha is a city on the outskirts of which battles are currently ongoing, it is the kursk region, and for example , as told by historians according to the census in 1897, more than 60% of the people of sudzhan called themselves. well, what about whether there is any reason at all to seriously state now that ukraine is returning its own, even jokingly, we decided to talk about it with a historian, dmytro shurhalo, the author and host of the historical freedom program on radio liberty, joins our broadcast. dmitry, i congratulate you. good day dmytro, as a historian, how do you feel about these statements, they are often very ironic statements about what they said, but now these days ukraine is returning its own, do you, as historians, agree with such statements? well, i, as a historian, i will say as a citizen that, in principle, the internationally recognized borders of ukraine were quite normal, and we should not have cross

these are the consequences of the shelling of the regional center of suzha by militants of the armed forces of ukraine, here is our balcony, you can’t get there, everything is broken, there is practically nothing left in the neighboring apartments, one apartment, the second rocket went all the way down to the first floor. indiscriminate fire on peaceful houses from the ukrainian side began around 3:00 in the morning, they deliberately hit the elderly quarter with a rocket artillery and tanks. enemy drones loaded with explosives attacked. civilian cars, one of the copters detonated in the courtyard of the gornalsky, st. nicholas belogorsky monastery, my street, my car, there it is, here it is, the house is destroyed, a rocket fell, here one, here it fell, my parents can't leave, they can't leave, because the constant shelling continues, the drop is made from drones on... in the morning moscow time , the enemy after a fire preparation by up to 300 militants from the twenty-second mechanized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, with the support of eleven tanks and more than twenty co

scattered next to half-destroyed houses, this is the consequence of the shelling of the regional center of suzha by militants of the ukrainian armed forces, here our balcony, you can't get there, everything is broken, there is practically nothing left in the neighboring apartments, one apartment, the second one, a rocket went all the way down to the first floor, random fire on civilian houses from the ukrainian side on... around 3:00 a.m. they deliberately hit the elderly quarter with rocket artillery and tanks. enemy drones, filled with explosives, attacked civilian cars. one of the copters detonated in the courtyard of the gornalsky, st. nicholas belogorsky monastery. my street, my car, it's standing there, there's the broken house. a rocket fell, here's one, it fell right here.

information that the sumy city council had apparently made a decision to join the suzhan district or suzhay community, then they spread all this information, then a refutation appeared that this was not the case, although i myself am from the sumy region and i know suja, well, it is literal. it is 30 or 40 km away from the places where i grew up, and we always perceived that there was part of these regions, they were handed over to russia, but these are ukrainian regions, suja, you know all these stories, without me, but in current situation, of course, it is important, it is important that we understand what is happening there on the course. you have now an understanding of how this situation develops, if we all have a single understanding, we can properly explain to our viewers and our listeners and readers, because there are many reflections and victorious reflections, and it is not clear whether there is for this any reasons and whether there are any successes for this, and this can also be confirmed only by the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, larisa, well, first of all..

talk about it in detail later today, but for now, watch the exclusive report of radio svoboda from suzhaion, where our colleague roman pagulych visited the day before. suja is the most publicly known city. since the beginning of the operation of the ukrainian army in the kursk region on the territory of russia, although in fact, if you look at the map, territorially on northwest, to the north, the ukrainian troops advanced much more strongly, but a lot is said about this city, after all , it is the district center, before the war, according to public data, about 500 people lived here, now there are obviously significantly fewer, well... they they came, today there were 10-15 people, they held a reception, they provided help, there was a woman today with a shrapnel wound, we will treat them here, i did surgery , cleaned the wounds and tomorrow will continue, when you were coming here, did you have any emotions , after all, this is the territory of another state, her emotions, let me speak up, i have been at war for 10 years and i will speak up. it's good that the ukrainians brought us wat

this is precisely the diet, it is such a watershed, it really is a road built there, from glushkov, suzhao nararylsk, kurchatov. zhelezny moscow, that is, if it is cut off, then it is cut off, and glushkovo is also cut off, and partially, well, there are still many settlements, that is, conditionally this former ukrainian territory, which was part of the bilopolsky air at one time, it now turned out to be different from the other parts of kursk, well, of course, there are other roads, there are other bridges, but this is the central one, it was just such a big artery, of course, but mr. yuriy, when they talked about... the creation of humanitarian corridors yesterday, we actually had both the military and those who accompany, let's say, legally these things, they say that the most correct option is to make a humanitarian corridor, this is in the area of ​​the border, where the court is, after which, actually accompanying, they should be returned to a safe place in that corridor, where without the territory of hostilities. russians, well, it just looks like this, that it is either to move

advance in the direction of the village of myrne, and this advance in the direction of kursk from suzhaestern flank, this is movement and control in the area of ​​the settlement of koreneve, this is precisely the left flank of our offensive, we can see it on the map, there the enemy tried to cut back, there are now battles for the village and around this settlement, most likely on... . no forces or units of our armed forces will move towards rylsk, exactly where we see this mark, where there was an attack on the russian enemy colony, well, the central offensive is precisely the advance to lhov, there the movement is the most dynamic, this city is on the way to kursk as. yesterday we talked about military operations in this direction near nastasivka, now there are military operations there. near the village of kromski byky, it is 15 km to lhovo, and then, if it is possible to get to the highway, then from there east on the road for about 25 km to korchatov, and that is exactly where this nuclear power plant of the russian federation is located, i do not think that the goal is to seize th

moving in parallel along the border, they liberated all the villages from suzha to snyagosta. it is quite likely that this movement in the corridor between the borders and the left bank of the seim river will continue up to our border in the district. walk away by the way, there is information that a thousand russian soldiers who were stationed in this area and were preparing for an offensive on sumy oblast, may now find themselves surrounded by our forces, who came from the side of ukraine to meet those advancing from the court. the russians lost contact with the mother a few days ago. to the north of suja, the armed forces of ukraine advanced in several arms in the direction of the cities of lhov and kurchatov. if the russians themselves admitted that the ukrainians came within 40 km of kursk, then it is obvious. the defense forces came even closer to these cities. however, at the moment, we only know about the battles in the vicinity of the village of kromski byky in the lhovsky direction and the transfer of the village of bolsho-soldatskoe under our control. however, follo

this is the reaction to the events in the kursk region, in particular near the suzha gas measuring station, which is the point of entry of russian fuel into our gas transportation system. now, according to the bloomberg agency, a megawatt/hour costs €39. this is essentially more than what was before the events, in particular in the kursk region, what is waiting for the ukrainian gas transport system and what is waiting in between. dear partners, after 2024, whether fuel will be transported by the ukrainian hts and whether there is fuel, we will talk about this and not only to talk in detail with mykhailo gonchar, he is the president of the center for global studies strategy 21 and joins the broadcast, good evening, i congratulate you, mr. mykhailo, well , our attention is really focused on the court and, in fact, what awaits in the event of such a catastrophic situation. when military actions can simply damage the critical infrastructure, damage the gas measuring station, is this unrealistic, or can it really affect the further transportation of fuel of the ukrainian hts? well, as you can

nuclear power plant, it is noticeable that the village of oktyabrske is located somewhere 50 km from suzha, but from which... in fact, the entire information space began to discuss the offensive in kursk region mr. roman, in your opinion, what does this mean that our forces are going to kursk? perhaps, perhaps, now, once again , it is difficult and unnecessary to draw an exact zone where our military is located, and we do not know the tasks that are set there, and that is good, the military knows about them. management, they are currently implementing their tasks, ah, who is interested, would like to know more, please join the guys in all these landings, all these roads and learn about all the plans that interest you, kurdsk , ac, a gas distribution station, something else is unknown, and it is great that it is unknown, we can see the results, here is a video showing the damage to this column. enjoy, i'm sure, there will be more of this, and we will see the consequences in time, for sure. i would like to talk to you about the military forces of the enemy, which he has in the kursk region.

it is also worth mentioning that... one of the railway lines, one of the main lines, passes through suzhahich leads precisely to belgorod, which is the main logistics hub of this grouping of the north, precisely the control of judgment and physical and fire complications of the enemy's transfer of forces and means as such, and the actual maintenance of this bridgehead the newly created will give the opportunity , using its geographical features, to create a repeated sanitary zone and partially influence the internal situation in russia, because it de facto demonstrates the inability of the russian leadership to control its own borders and the situation near its borders, now that the operation there began, there was talk of a 7-km wedge, then on the same day, russian media outlets were talking about a front width of 10 km and a wedge. for 15 km, but the extreme information already concerns that it is about 25 km and actually about the fact that russia has lost control over the settlement of suja itself, but i repeat, this is information from the russian side, there are no comments or repor

kursk region, and the russian service of radio liberty has shown: satellite images of the damaged suzha gas measuring station in the kursk region. the footage shows the destroyed administration premises, stations and a platform with measuring equipment. but the operator of the gas transportation system of ukraine confirmed that the supply of gas to european customers is taking place as usual. that is, everything works as it should. well, and european gas traders are now avoiding ukrainian. storage facilities after the russian attacks. they use only a part of foreign gas tanks. the financial times writes about it. although the fuel is deep underground, which protects it from impacts, damage to infrastructure on the surface is a significant risk , experts say. it is now a concern of foreign companies, because it will not be possible to pump gas without land capacity. however, i think that business from the european union will still use our warehouses. because they can download in the european union almost 100 billion cubic meters in its underground storages, and the bloc countries need al

ukrainian troops advanced to the south of ruska konopelka, a village east of suzha, 12 km from the ukrainian border. this is reported by the american institute for the study of war, referring to geolocation footage of the battles published on the internet. russian pro-war bloggers also report on the tense situation for the russian army in malia lokna and martynivka, north of suja. as for martynivka, some publications write that the russian army got there in semi-surrounding meanwhile, var gonzo writes that the russian troops in this direction liberated the village of nechaiv from the zsu. and even the day before , russian pro-war publics announced the attack of the armed forces of ukraine on korenevo. for example, a telegram channeler wrote about the mechanized attack of an entire platoon of the armed forces on this city, allegedly without success. the public also reported on the attempted breakthrough of the armed forces of ukraine in the area of ​​the villages of komarivka and olhivka in this direction. according to analysts of the american institute for the study of war, the armed forces

to the north of suzha, the armed forces of ukraine are advancing in several arms in the direction of cities of lhov and kurchatov. if the russians themselves admitted that the ukrainians came within 40 km of kursk, then apparently the defense forces got even closer to these cities. however, so far only the fighting in the vicinity of the village is known kromsky bulls in the lhovo direction and the transition of the village of bolsho-soldatskoe under our control. however, tracing the direction of the offensive of the armed forces, it is logical to assume that here, too, they aim not only to cut the rylsk-kursk highway, but also to reach the shores of the diet. to the east of suzhi, the advance of the armed forces of ukraine is currently the most modest, and it is also here that they met the greatest resistance from the russians, because the threat of cutting the belgorod-kursk highway would be a national disaster for them. despite this, our heroes here made their way at least 18 km to the village of bjelica, moving along the right bank of the river the dog at the same time, they mana

diana botsko, correspondent of hromadska was in svoboda ranok, shared her impressions of her trip to suzhain the kursk region of russia. thank you very much. residents of the kursk region, part of which is currently controlled by the armed forces of ukraine , will not be evacuated to ukraine, let alone forcibly. however, ukraine is the norm. international humanitarian law is obliged to give people the opportunity to leave the territories where the fighting is going on. this is how the minister of reintegration of ukraine iryna vereshchuk explained her announcement about the creation of a state hotline for evacuation from kurshchyna. according to her, to the hotline already people who have relatives in the territory of the kursk region called. veryshchuk also says that ukraine is ready to release people to the territory of russia, but the russian side has not yet contacted ukraine. with a request to open a humanitarian corridor for its own citizens, and special agents of the special operations center a. the security services of ukraine captured more than a hundred russian servicemen, includ

for you, igor, and this is how you drove through all these settlements, through villages, stopped in suzha, as far as i understand , russian flags are removed there, ukrainian flags are installed or not, because there are a lot of videos on telegram channels of ukrainian military personnel installing flags somewhere there, it is not known for sure whether this is a special information operation or whether it is or is not really. happened, what can you say? i will speak for what i saw, and i did not see ukrainian flags on the administration buildings, just as i did not see russian flags there, of course, thank you, as for the flags. thank you very much, ihor levinok, correspondent of the inter tv channel, who visited the territory of kurshchyna the day before and shared his impressions with us. thank you igor. well, it is already known that ukraine is building new fortifications on... the border with russia, between the kursk and sumy regions, presumably preparing for a possible attack by moscow in response to the offensive of the armed forces. here is the video reuters agency published tod

kurdistan nuclear power plant, it is noticeable that the village of oktyabrske is located some 50 km from suzhafrom which the entire information space actually began to discuss the offensive in the kursk region. mr. roman, what do you think it means that our forces are going to kursk? perhaps, perhaps, now... again , it is difficult and unnecessary to draw some exact zone where our military is located, we do not know the tasks that are set there, and that is good, the military leadership knows about them, they are for today its implement them, these tasks, and who is interested, wants to know more, please join the guys in all these landings, all these roads and learn about all the plans that interest you. kurssk, as, gas distribution station, something else, it is unknown, and it is great that it is unknown, we are seeing the results, here is a video of the damage to this column, enjoy, i am sure, there will be more of this, and we will see the consequences in time, we must sure, i would like to talk to you about the military forces of the enemy, which he has in the kursk region, actually us sa
