well, we can say that some actions are taking place within the city limits, well, but also in the direction of liptsi near kharkiv, if the enemy advances in the direction of liptsi, then he will have the opportunity to fire at kharkiv, as far as i understand from such a very close range of barrel artillery there and there 20 how many 23-24 km to the city in general 17-18, well, that is, it can be taken from the city of es, from acacia, and this, well, will complicate the whole situation for us, including the humanitarian one. that is, perhaps this is the purpose of this entire story? well, from one sides, of course, on the other side, let’s detail what at this distance, which can be occupied in the area of ​​the elbes, well, after all, the russians will not be able to place a cannon directly on the front line, but they will then be able to return to the shelling of kharkiv, let's say so, even more dangerous in reality. pion systems, well

, caliber 23 mm, we can recall that the occupiers actively shelled the city with these guns in the spring of 2022, and there was even this creepy episode, when the russians simply opened fire from these guns and there, forgive me, it seems even the child was simply thrown onto the roof of the house, it was just such a powerful cannon, the projectile there weighs 200 kg, in fact more than the combat unit of the s300, that's why, yes, why , right there, let's say it's important for the russians, in principle , not to... sit in leptsia, why there heavy battles are going on, but as for sumy oblast, you know, we just need to go into detail there, on the example of kharkiv oblast , we already have that the russians, let’s say this, rarely tried to act as tactically competently as possible, following the best examples of their science there , do not rush just these infantry assaults, and just act according to such a scheme that first the drg eyes, the so-called saboteurs, or in fact the special operations force, go, then they are already followed by the first wave of the offensive and the second, well, accordingly, let's say this, maybe just on the contrary, it should

be said about sumy region that there are statements by some official structures that say everything is perfectly fine, if we say so, everything is calm and there is nothing to worry about, but they may not correspond to reality and it is unlikely that ukr zaliznytsia would simply announce that it well, you know, we are just opening an additional train of soums to kyiv so that it runs, let's say, more regularly and everyone who wants to leave on time can go, so we should just say that the appearance of assets. these russian saboteurs in the sumy oblast may just be a prerequisite for the russian transition to a full-fledged offensive, but not in the sense that the russians there will be able to get out with a single shot, as they unfortunately did in february 2022, but russian tanks can also follow the saboteurs it's a pity, yes, ivan, look, well, now many people are noting, saying, it seems that the scale of this russian offensive in the kharkiv region has calmed down, but... isn't it just what

you say, when the first echelon advanced , and now they are just reaching the second echelon, and in fact, we still have a much bigger attack ahead of us, well, you can formulate it so that we are in a state of strategic uncertainty, because even this certain media scandal, when there is, let's say so , it seemed to someone that budanov's words to the new york times were incorrect interpreted, because the version that the russians just... as part of their task of stretching the line of our defense, may first go to the activation in kharkiv oblast, then move their efforts to sumy oblast, well , that is, try to transfer troops quickly to other areas, this is the same option is also not excluded, because, well, we have a story when , in order to open this offensive in the direction of kharkiv, the russians, after all, transferred some units to the kupinsky and limansky, well, which would look illogical at first glance, but they went for it, accordingly, there may be such an option that they will just follow this principle of light color. that is, demonstrating offensive

activity, let's say so, and in kharkiv, then switching to sumy and back, in order to try to stretch, in principle, stretch the line of our defense, we are in principle in such a very unfavorable situation, and how to get out of it, whether it is possible to get out of it is an open question, because here too, as british analysts notice a certain paradox, on the one hand, the russians, in terms of their capabilities, have managed to after the life of avdiivka, well, ask for that level. when the maximum they can send in an organized attack is a company, but it turns out that the russians found a non-linear way out of this, saying, ok, we can send a maximum of a company into battle, and not as we want a brigade or a division there at once, then you can simply gather a few, well, a very large number of such mouths and simply stretch them to the greatest width of the front and attack there and create problems for us in this way, what can be so asymmetrical that in response from our parties to create problems for the russians in their current format of actions. well, i don't even

know what it can be on this one. the russians obviously tried with these actions to get us to use our reserves, and judging by everything they succeeded, and about what actions can be, well, we all understand, more people on the front line, more capabilities on the front line, more weapons from from our side on the front line, and then this stretching will not make any sense, unfortunately, the situation is not like that, let's say it directly, but here is the question, yes in us, for example, well, with reserves... not so much, but what about the reserves of the russians, i.e. how far can they increase these actions from your point of view, because, well, as you rightly noted, they throw in the mouth, collect in this companies, but these companies are also exhausted, and what do they have in reserves, from what is known and even

at the moment the most pessimistic estimates that sound that the russians in reserves are somewhere around 60 thousand bayonets, that is, units that there takes place... coordination and there can be in theory there taken removed from the educational ones centers and thrown into battle, the situation is complicated by the fact that the russians, even for the offensive in kharkiv oblast, decided that their 44th army corps, which was not well formed, could simply be taken from the training grounds and thrown into battle, well because this is what the party ordered them to do, well, that is , the kremlin ordered it, but the problem here is that once the russians begin to demonstrate such a course that... the bet is not only on the quantity, but also on the quality of use, well, let's let's agree that here is an attempt to advance in three lines, that is, they go first saboteurs, then the first echelon of the offensive, then the second, well, this is fundamentally higher in quality than what they demonstrated even under the audio booth, accordingly, we have a problem,

you know, more weapons, more people, more equipment, well, this story is simply not will pass in a linear fashion, one of the moments that, let's say, literally hangs in the air, but which has not been discussed, that... we mechanize the russian army, we lag behind the russian army, you can bet as much as you want that the russians end there, it ends there a relatively newer t-72, so the exits are t-62 with sheds, chinese golfcars and the like, but even if you take them, they have them, but what if you just open those western directories that are publicly available, national the legislation does not prohibit, let's call it that way, then it becomes sad there, how much we take away from them, let 's drag out the situation, we will have to look for something outside the lines, well, that is, you know, as an option, well, armored vehicles, that's why it's just at the expense, you know , such a linear expansion, we are not if the cleaning of the russians in the rear, that's it non-linear, as much as we can

afford it, as much as we have the capacity for it, well, the question that hangs, hangs, i don't know what you can say, i don't mind, for example, well, there is a specific statement from blinkin to... use western weapons there, including for strikes on the russian federation, respectively, well , maybe cluster attacks are really requested by balovny in the temporarily occupied crimea, on the territory of the belograd people's republic, well , by the way, it is cluster attacks in order to strike masses of troops, so if already from the americans such a specific wording was sounded, something in the style of, and we do not forbid, it is said to be the law of ukraine, and very incidentally, there is also the question of striking with western weapons. it's not just a long-range missile to land somewhere in the moscow region, it's also there, given the pettiness of some of our western allies, the question arises whether it is even possible to use certain types of assault rifles during raids there, for example, the rdk itself or tanks, well, when the poles, excuse me, ate themselves up, they thought that the rdk used their pt-91 creatures, well, what

just a modification of the t-72, but this is precisely about the fact that it is possible to use any western equipment for attacks on the russians, so that not only those terrorists who terrorized sumyshchyna can be beaten with them, but at least with the same panzergau b2, a certain thaw is coming , and perhaps it is precisely the thaw that should be used to create problems for the russians there as well, because to deter their attacks only on our land, when they use the belgorod people's republic for strikes, well , it's a one-way game, but we have an opportunity to open it to other gates, well, it’s a very simply comfortable situation for them, when they were able to concentrate there on the border of kharkiv region with... calmly, without straining too much, a beautiful video that is now spreading, when literally on the highway there among russian civilians there is a game of cars, pounding somewhere in the direction of kharkiv, well, what is it, that is, it simply should not be standing there,

so to speak, so thank you very much ivan, it was ivan kyrychevsky, an expert of defense express, thank you for joining us, we have... to take a break, then we will still continue to discuss the situation in kharkiv region, but directly with a person from the battlefield, let's say so, so wait, now there is a break. there are times when the body quickly loses fluid, which can lead to dehydration. when ordinary water is not enough, there is reo. reo - water for special medical purposes. i save reo. i save children from reo, and i save myself from reo. reo - water for special medical purposes. fm. galicia listen to yours. to feel

sirk. i congratulate you, yuri. glory to ukraine. glory to heroes. well, actually, let's start literally with what is happening in your direction, here is such information appeared today, as if there some kind of such started, literally in the vovchansk district, a little, well, not on the territory of the city itself. attempt of a tank attack by the russian occupiers, what do you think about it, do you know anything about it, have there already been any such attempts, well, indeed, there are armored vehicles behind... what can you tell about what is happening there now? as for the actions of the enemy, the enemy is actively trying to increase its efforts with assault countermeasures in order to consolidate the results that are there and to regroup and continue its influence,

let's call it that, in the kharkiv region, in general, i.e. the further occupation of the territories, but we have to tell you that... that from the day the state border was crossed, the enemy initially used a significant amount of lightly armored armored vehicles, most of which were completely destroyed due to the combined effect of fire, including artillery, anti-tank means and , of course, means of unmanned aircraft, in particular and similar ones. accordingly, on a number of branches , the enemy almost removed the use of lightly armored armored vehicles, but on some branches, taking advantage of the opportunity, the enemy tries to use it. in particular and will continue to do so, the task of the defense forces is to timely detect and , accordingly, destroy what is happening on all fronts, and this does not apply to the exceptional vovchentok there or to the example of other parts where the enemy has crossed the state border, it applies to the entire line of combat confrontation, we see the enemy , we hit and hit sufficiently hard and powerfully, well, in principle, well, everyone

is talking about it, that a major breakthrough of the front was still avoided, but the russians occupied several border areas. settlements, well today, as if in the morning, at first they did not carry out any such active actions, but then they also resumed, but i am just curious about your opinion on whether it can really be said that they have been restrained, stabilized, or are we now waiting for them to regroup and there will be some new offensive attempts in the area and... and on vovchanskyi and on lypka, that is, how do you see it in general, this is their action? would like to note, the armed forces do not wait, the armed forces are active, 24x7 sufficiently active and powerful, is it expected that the enemy will strengthen shock and assault actions, draw up reserves, regroup, is that what is expected? once again , let's look at the situation more comprehensively,

then it will be clear immediately from the enemy, which he remembers, the enemy is after us. complete destruction of ukrainian statehood, and these ambitions remain in them to this day. also, for the enemy, there is a phased occupation of ukrainian territories. donetsk-luhansk remains the priority region. in order for the enemy to move actively in donetsk as much as possible, in his opinion luhansk region, it was necessary to withdraw a certain number of forces and means that took part in hostilities in the donetsk-luhansk direction to another place. accordingly, in connection with... proximity to the state border, and in general information propaganda in the russian federation supports this, that kharkiv is a very important place for the russian federation, they began to cross the state border and storm precisely the positions in kharkiv region. it is also an extremely important strategic city for us, so one way or another the forces

the defense will deploy reserves there. and also that it is important to understand that the enemy has a small gap in time. when the defense forces receive the maximum number of means within the framework of joint military assistance, then in most vitings we will be able to deprive the enemy, to carry out shock assault actions. that is why in the next month and a half, the enemy will be quite active in the kharkiv region to carry out shock and assault operations, use reserves and use all available weapons, this should be understood, in particular, by the people of kharkiv, who live in the city, i believe that it is necessary to listen to the sirens in more detail, but sometimes it happens that... first the arrival, then the siren, be as attentive, careful, avoid crowded places and still try to take care of yourself from the point from the point of view of the security plan, everyone is already used to war, used to what is coming, but you must always go to the shelter, as for the possible successes of the enemy on the battlefield, in my opinion, the enemy

will not have significant tactical successes on the battlefield, why, because first see you soon the enemy was being prepared. this concerns engineering and fortification structures and, accordingly , the number of forces and means used for the defense of the kharkiv region, and accordingly, in connection with international military aid, i emphasize this for the second time, we will have the opportunity to hit the main means of the enemy more thoroughly, and this is the aviation that uses the control of his bombs, and these are, of course, different ones that bombard both the city of kharkiv and the front-line territory. therefore, it will be difficult, but we will definitely persevere. well, you already mentioned a little about fortifications, i didn't may i also not ask you your opinion regarding this very large discussion that is ongoing, regarding the fact that... maybe the fortification is not enough, maybe not there, well, it’s a bit like how they understood that right on the border to create some concrete line there, it’s

a little like that the expectations are not very realistic, but there are also things that still raise questions, for example, could it not have been mined a little more, could it not have been thrown out in the liptsi region, the so- called... still place them somehow or not take them there at all, well, what do you think or not was it possible to really strengthen at least some aspects of all this? i will tell you this way that the enemy is preparing very successful lines of defense, it is a pure truth, they made conclusions after the kharkiv counteroffensive operation, and the level of engineering patification structures of the name that the enemy can afford is very, very powerful. three lines of defense with everything necessary to be able to get personnel there and take defensive actions. as for the kharkiv region, engineering partitioning facilities were being prepared. first line

defense and the second line of defense. was everything done perfectly? the truth is always somewhere in the middle. the lines were being prepared, whether it would be maximally accomplished with the current resource, finances, construction capabilities, and so on. time will tell, i'm sure that there will definitely be a desk analysis of flights from in addition, something was incomplete and who did not report to whom, so it cannot be said that there is no defensive line, no, there is a defensive line, and it is in two echelons, was it ideal for defensive actions, well, military i would always like, and i personally would like it to be better prepared, which concerns ukraine as a whole, here it is very important, we cannot change the past, but we can directly influence the present future, therefore it is very important to draw conclusions from those mistakes that have been made and to ensure that the second, second and third lines of defense are prepared as effectively, qualitatively and in the shortest possible time, and this does not

only apply to the kharkiv region, it applies to the whole of ukraine in general, dangerous shades, where there are currently no hostilities, but the enemy may open them, and, accordingly, in those areas of our territory where active hostilities continue. well, here we are not even talking about the first, second, even third line of defense, but rather about what is called the support strip, that is, what is before the first line of defense, in fact, that is what our troops broke through for several months, unfortunately, this problem is rather urgent for us, we were not able to prepare it after all, and probably we would like some kind of conclusions here, look, no quite so, but when we say that it was not possible to prepare, one may think that they did not prepare, no. were prepared and in some aspects prepared sufficiently qualitatively, was it fully realized? this question remains open, which must be analyzed in great detail and appropriate

conclusions drawn. well, literally according to what is happening now, please tell me, well , they have confirmed that the russians are entering vovchansk in such small infantry groups, trying to gain a foothold, using such and such groups. is that so continues, is this tactic changing somehow, or are they strengthening it with something now, well, that is , somehow, what can you say about this, about the way in which the russians are still trying to conduct combat operations in the kharkiv region? here everything can be explained as rationally as possible: initially in the first days, the enemy used light armored vehicles, which the defense force burned almost completely. the enemy resorted to the tactics used in other branches, in particular in the donetsk and luhansk regions, this is the accumulation of small in groups, so much so that the kharkiv region is very beautiful, it is full of greenery that has not

been bombed, accordingly, the enemy is using the green cover, in particular , the tactics used, in particular in the donetsk direction, as i said, accumulate in the main areas of concentration, then in advanced positions and under the cover of such a transitional period, you know, from when it gets dark, or vice versa, when it dawns, the enemy is most active in these periods of time, but at the same time, individual units of the enemy carry out shock and attack actions and when it is completely light, that is why this tactic gives the enemy the opportunity to linger, and why it is important for them to enter the city of vovchansk itself, just as it was in the city of chasiv, because with the overwhelming number of manpower , it is much more profitable from a tactical point of view to fight in urban areas. brothers to each other in the urban development, conditionally, this military art says so, and the enemy is many times more, so they, they understand that it is quite difficult to hold settlements with gray defense, and

the enemy is trying to... delay, or will he manage to get to the settlement of vebchansk, i am sure that in the near future, we will see to what extent the enemy will use powerful reserves, and how will it be possible to stabilize this situation, buy in full ? well, in principle, the enemy uses aviation very actively, and this is what gave him the opportunity to advance in other directions, but what about vovchansk, because... there are also reports that they are actively bombing there, but how active and how much well, compared to the same time gap there some other direction? the enemy actively uses aviation, i will explain why this is happening: the defense forces currently have insufficient anti-aircraft weapons and ammunition for them, the enemy understands this, and the enemy also understands that in a month and a half the situation will change, accordingly,

the presence of his aviation in the air... will be much less, because the defense forces get the opportunity to shoot it down by means of fire, accordingly, using these opportunities, the presence of enemy aviation is now as high as possible on all priorities for the enemy in particular, the kharkiv region is not an exception to the control bomb, the enemy throws it both on the line of combat and , accordingly, on the city of kharkiv, on residential quarters and houses, and all this makes the blood boil very strongly in the veins, because the power of... defense we do not allow ourselves to make an impression in places where russians may be concentrated on their territory, we destroy exclusively military facilities, the enemy acts in a completely different way, therefore the only way we can secure our people and give the future to our state is to stop the enemy on the battlefield, for it is necessary for the military to do its best and we are doing it, and it is also very important that the civilian sector

does not panic now either. mood, he did not look for an opportunity to leave the country, but worked effectively at his workplace and, as far as possible, supported the defense forces as a general obligation. friends, we were once able to restrain the enemy powerfully enough, to seize the initiative tactically on our side, then our international partners with military aid let us down somewhat, in connection with this, the enemy seized the tactical initiative, now they will ammunition, motivated military personnel are enough, moreover, for 2.5 years of full-scale war, such... managerial, soldier, sergeant slav received very powerful training, so i am sure that together with you we will be able to restrain the enemy now and also to intercept them in full on a number of branches tactical initiative. well, literally briefly, literally half a minute, regarding how realistic it can be for us to destroy these attempts to accumulate the enemy on the territory of russia, on the territory of

the belgorod region, that is, how much... this situation can be transparent for us, as far as we can see where they can be concentrated there, as you assess, very briefly, i will tell you this, that there are restrictions on the use of certain means, i will not name them, fire influence on the territory of the russian federation, we clearly know, understand, realize where the same s-300, s-400 complexes are located, now there is simply no way to get them due to the ban on the use of certain means, but believe me, all the means... which we can use , which are not prohibited, there is also a sufficient number of such means, they are deployed across the entire category of military targets on the territory of the russian federation, in particular, our unit destroyed an armored car a few days ago, which was being carried out on missions, preparing for combat missions in ukraine right in the city of bevhorod itself. thank you, thank you, it was yury fedorenko, thank you for joining us, for our broadcast, for taking the time, the commander

of the shock pack battalion. achilles of the 92nd separate assault brigade, well, our time has come to end, but stay tuned to espresso tv channels, because we still have a lot of useful and interesting things for you. hello everyone from espresso, i'm anyavamelnik and it's time to learn about the main events for this hour. russia has expanded the combat zone by 70 km. the enemy's offensive in the north of kharkiv region began earlier than planned, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine oleksandr syrskyi reported. escalating russia on...
