Good afternoon, if you have questions, you will receive answers, interesting questions too, they are worth analyzing, sportnikov veresen, every friday at 21 15 at espresso. So we expected the actual connection with horlivka, but the editors warned us that it was dangerous enough for us our speakers situation, maybe because of these, this moment, actually we are not able to reconnect now, we are waiting , information is so important, but the safety of our guests is much more important, he said that there is a danger of shelling this particular place, from where he would should be included, this too, further north along the line of demarcation of the front, we will talk , if possible, about the horliv direction in particular, there were no less fierce battles, but also very different circumstances, if in action we saw one applied tactic, i. E. Actually zhukovsky, four days, this is zhukovs tactics, its just a tactic, it was changed only on the third day, when it became clear that dozens of tanks, a hundred pieces of equipment were burned, that is , there is a combat Tactical Group it is only for heavy equipment in the area of avdiyivka, it is forever buried in around in the fields and on the fields, accordingly they also changed their tactics , for three days zhukov region switched to the now classic tactics of the 22nd year, when they go in groups of 2030, age, this is very different from other areas of the front, where they mainly they work, remotely, arta, drones, and if there is an advance of infantry, then in very small such groups of two or three men, that is, it is very different from the situation that exists on the front near horlivka, near the lymankupin section of the front and avdiivska , everything has completely changed there, and the intensity of the fighting is quite high, but there is also intensive work by our armed forces, along their rear lines, yesterday our armed forces hit the yasenuvata horlivka bridge, why is this place important at all, an important object, but why are we on it so we emphasize, yes, because he connects, yes, yes, yes, actually, that it connects horlivka with temporarily occupied donetsk, respectively, it is the fastest route, it is a good road, there are others, but these are such small roads, manivtsi, and a detour. It is not very comfortable there, and in the end, now, after this bridge was hit by our armed forces , the occupiers have to bring everything they need a longer way through yenakieve, no, thanks to our armed forces for that, well, yes, there is quite a powerful and a clear blow, no one knows what they were hit with, someone says about jadem, these guided bombs, which are in our tactical aviation, may be something else, it does not matter, the main thing is that the work is done and the logistics of pulling up the ammunition is completely destroyed, we will remind you once again that after avdiivka in the dry end, who did not have time to listen our conversation with officer maksym morozov, he debunked the myths that there is a cauldron, that there are heavy battles, there is an increase in the intensity of shelling in avdiivka, several. In small bridgeheads, nothing is being solved, but the most difficult situation is with the socalled near the coke farm by these rock dumps, yes. What is called terekon, the fighting continues there, that is why now they have increased the terrorist shelling of avdiyivka, but even now i am watching the video from our fighters , it has recently appeared to the people who are still staying there for our military and the military administration are delivering products and and help, and this means that dangerous , but logistical ways are working, and therefore there is no boiler, just as there is no need now, for the head, because this is a video that began to circulate this morning about the alleged use of projectiles from White Phosphorus in vadiivka does not correspond to reality, our defenders confirmed. Now we will take a short break, roman, stay with us for a few minutes, we will return and continue to analyze the situation at the front. Forum via carpathia presents a unique book event.

The whole east of ukraine is now red. But fortunately our guest was able to get to a safe place, and we are actually joining yevhen ievlev, a soldier of the armed forces of ukraine with the call sign sheikh, to the conversation now, glory to ukraine, mr. Yevgeny, i wish health, the studio, and glory to the heroes, so it is clear that you are hot if you are forced to change the location even for security reasons, that is why i want to ask what the occupiers are doing now from this direction of the occupied throat. How do they work, we have just literally analyzed the situation for the last day in the south, around avdiivka, how long does it look like in your area . Listen, well, the horliv direction is directly logistically connected with avdiivsky, for three days now, i think, i will not open any for you new facts, shocked at avdiivka, you see the mass media, all the equipment that is going to avdiivka from our direction, it is at a depth from us, our relays fell out. It can be seen at a depth of 6 to 12 km, for three days it is such a nonstop flow of equipment, where we observed sunblocks, and tanks, and saushki, and d20, d30 guns, that is, it all passes in front of our noses, as much as possible, there, as far as we have bc, we are trying to hit this equipment, but the enemy is also taking cover all these days and has increased the density of artillery shells and mortar shelling, so for three days it was quite hot and the situation changed , i. I think you were informed, the arrival was somewhere, i was just in, lets say, before it was turned on, the arrival was somewhere 150 meters away, very seriously i had to cross to the shelter, thats why i say the situation, the last three days we have been quite hot, yes, mr. Yevgeny, and in this case, in this, we understand, they dont remove heavy equipment from your section of the front, that is, they are some kind of reserves, and you try to stop them, and the direction, as they say horlivka. Avdiivka, that is, from north to south of all those columns, are they weakening and removing heavy equipment from the front line, i understand that this is no, it does not look at all like they are removing equipment from our section of the front, we roughly understand the maps map and approximately, not approximately 90 percent, we understand what is located in them, at what depth, what in relation to our direction, that is, these are completely different columns, i think that the artery that leads from the horlivsk direction to avdiivka this is not the only artery by which they will deliver. Equipment to avdiivka and in the avdiivka direction, but despite everything, well, the situation is really , really very difficult, but despite everything, i want to tell you that the day before yesterday i had the opportunity to communicate with a brother from avdiivka, tactical success, there is no enemy there, it is very difficult, this its great, well, you understand what it is, if its not very appropriate to talk about some negative situations there on the air, but it seems very difficult, but im saying, the brothers there repel all enemy assaults as professionally and qualitatively as possible, and you yes sir evene, do you have time to look at the Information Support from the enemy, that is, because we just , deepfake, solved such a thing with our soldiers, with officers, about which he has been talking all day today, about phosphorus bombs that are shelling avdiivka , this is to increase anxious moods and other demoralization, which you see, but if you have time to watch this too, how the information reinforces it all. This attack, overturning the enemys equipment, how does it reinforce . Look, i will tell you this, informatively, when this happens ok, i dont have much time to research and analyze what the telegram channels write, this is the first story, the second story, from the words of the same brother, i can confirm to you about the use of phosphorous projectiles, the third, the only thing that i know there is not from the Information Support the enemy, and what we know there from the factories that are open, well, there are certain telegram channels that we periodically review there in order to understand the situation that is happening with the enemy there , we also have an understanding, well, from these sources, that the morgue of the hospital in they are full of them, simply mr. Yevgeny, how much the good action of our armed forces made life difficult for them, actually i am talking about the undermining of the bridge, the important bridge, horlivka yasenuvat, is it already clear that they have to go around somewhere, or are they trying to build something on the spot, i dont know, there temporary how are they doing now . Listen, i will answer this answer briefly, because i already have my command, that we need to change locations, i will tell you about, i will tell you about logistics, that first of all, you must understand that we are all working, and the artillery, all in the conditions of bc deficit, therefore, not by any means unimportant structures would not be damaged, this is the first, but the second, dear damage , dear damage to dear logistical arteries of the enemy, it leads to difficulties, because they are fighting on. In their own homes, not in their own territory, it is very difficult for them there to find it in the fields , on the landings, they dont understand what their predecessors have mined, they dont understand that they are being shot at by us, so dear logistics damage, it is reflected on the front for a certain period of time, but you. Well, that is, they bypass all this, but they eat for it it takes more time than, for example, us, because we, we are at home, we have local people, we are fighting on our territories, mr. Yegen, we turn off communication, thank you very much, but your safety is more important than, continuation of the conversation, but we really hope that you will have time to convey a combative greeting to our defenders, yevhen yevliv, a retired sheikh, a zsu fighter from the horliv district and always to us, we just receive operational information from him. And as we have now realized that, in fact, we once again regret that on this part of the front, the shelling is intense, so they are trying to distract the armed forces of ukraine in this direction to horlivka, by transferring new and new heavy equipment along the front line to the south to avdiyka, now we will summarize all this with serhiy zgurets, director of the information and Consulting Company defense express, letter. Another very important moment, lets say that in each, as he says, we have an accurate projectile , we do not shoot at secondary targets, i also paid attention to this, that is, the guys know exactly what is important, where the impact will be for the enemy of the preschooler, and as much as he can this blow make life difficult for the enemy, their logistics, their, can change and spoil their plan. And this is actually very, very gratifying, because we root for our defenders. So, once again, at an interesting moment, if they introduce huge columns of equipment south to avdiivka, while not exposing the front, it means that they managed to, well, collect at least a lot of iron, precisely to throw them in the direction, and avdiivkas, this seems to be their goal now, because near bakhmut, on the southern flank , there is an advance of our brigades, yes by several hundred meters, several meters, its actually very, very much, in another area they want to compensate for what is happening now, there or they just want to show that they seem to have some gains and actually, you dont need to show them, they want to distract, im so i understand that it is in our power that the military command would praise this option we stop our movement around bakhmut, transfer some units, for example, to the maintenance of the avdiivka, i think, lets ask about it, clarify whether it is good, we reason with you, such zgurets already with us, glory to ukraine, mr. Serhiy, glory, good morning, we dont know if you heard our guests, yes, but i didnt, because they were making a connection, but i understand, the first question, in any case, avdiivka, which remains the most active part of the front, mr. Serhiy, we have now collected a picture of what horlivka looks like, which is north of adyka, and our fighters say that large columns of equipment are being poured in the direction of avdiyiv, and they are trying to hit or logistics with fire control or the technique itself in horlivky district, does this mean that the russians actually want to create such a situation that the armed forces of ukraine will one way or another stop the offensive in the bakhmut district, or start pulling. Throw forces from certain areas of the Eastern Front to hold this area in the avdiivka area . Well, in fact, now the enemy is trying to advance in several directions, avdiyivka has now come to the fore, given the activity of the Russian Forces involved and the fact that the enemy is really trying to somehow carry out, to continue offensive actions just from and from krasnogohorivka and from the experienced and watery areas, there, in particular in the direction of the steppe, if we are talking about, the north, there were certain advances of the enemy, the enemy there is trying to move towards the railway, but if we take into account the losses of the enemy in these areas and the assessments of foreign experts, our conclusions, then we understand that the Ukrainian Armed forces are restraining the enemy, the enemy encountered both artillery and mines there. Field, we see losses in the enemys pronotechnik there of more than 36 units, and we understand that now everything will further depend on the balance of forces, the aggressiveness of the enemy and the stability of our defense. There is no need to doubt the latter, given that the fortification lines around avdiivka are built tight enough, while we understand that the enemy is now trying to get to these terekons in the north, to one of the terekons with commanding heights above this settlement. And we can already see that for the third day in a row, there is an air strike and artillery and attempts by Ground Forces to advance, and the main thing. The effort, i think, which is quite obvious, in principle, it is precisely to complicate the Logistical Support of our group, which is located and receives avdiivka, there now , if you measure there, somewhere from the steppe to the north, it is from north to south about 8 km, that is, in fact, how the situation resembles bahamud, when the enemy tried to complicate Logistical Support and close the eyes under. Southern ticks, now it somewhat resembles the situation, but we understand that now we have a qualitatively different artillery, and i think that these efforts will, well, the enemy will be defeated, although we understand that and then the enemy will try to somehow turn this part of the front into a success, because in other parts of the enemy there is nothing to be done, mr. Serhiy, look, from two, from two sides, he is trying to assemble this picture, 26 tanks, this is for the past day. 50 bmp, i dont count artillery systems and so on, these are quite high numbers , a catch, because there were 44 artillery s
