00:00:00In Ukraine, we always talked about unique places,
00:00:04unique people, but that was
00:00:07before. Since February
00:00:102022, war has changed
00:00:13everything. We show the new
00:00:17history of Ukraine,
00:00:19about the incredible strength of spirit, about the struggle, no matter
00:00:23what.
00:00:28Watch the joint project of Radio Svoboda and Current Time TV channel,
00:00:32what is really happening in Ukraine.
00:00:49Ukraine is scaling middle strikes. The Ukrainian
00:00:52army is actively hitting the operational rear of the Russian
00:00:55army. Air defense systems, deployment points,
00:00:59warehouses, and many other things are under attack. Today,
00:01:03Donbass Realities will show one of such operations of the First Separate
00:01:06Unmanned Systems Center
00:01:08SBS.
00:01:12A bright flash a drone disappears in
00:01:15the night sky. This is beautiful work, the best work in
00:01:19the world. FP-2s take off one after another, each carrying
00:01:23more than 100 kg of explosives. My
00:01:26crew is not only involved in launches.
00:02:00It's difficult to complain in the infantry now, that it's difficult, impossible, because
00:02:04the hardest work is done by the guys in the infantry, the guys
00:02:07at the front, but we try to do everything to be worthy of
00:02:11their contribution, we work almost around the clock, that is, we either
00:02:15prepare for work, or directly the
00:02:18application itself, there are many unpredictable different
00:02:21circumstances, there are many unforeseen different
00:02:24circumstances, that is, for work one must have at least minimal
00:02:28knowledge of electronics.
00:03:30both the intensity of launches and the range of destruction, practically
00:03:33all Ukrainian territories occupied by
00:03:36Russia are under fire. We worked
00:03:39on the Rubicon school. We worked on
00:03:43the Rubicon school. There was a fairly strong contingent of more than
00:03:4660 people. So for me personally, when you destroy
00:03:50personnel, that was probably the most interesting target.
00:03:54Because these same pilots then destroy our
00:03:57equipment. And they, like us, adapt. Exactly
00:04:08in my crews 86%. This
00:04:11is a very, very high coefficient. The device itself, it can be
00:04:15retrofitted, equipped with something, change the warhead, it's a very
00:04:19cool platform. Many targets were hit in
00:04:22motion. Tors, Buk systems were hit at the moment when they
00:04:25were escaping. That is, their mobile groups worked against
00:04:29us.
00:05:12There is an echeloned defense carried out by UAV
00:05:16interceptors, somewhere it is more successful, somewhere it is less
00:05:19successful. The effectiveness of detecting targets in the air
00:05:22is achieved due to the presence of SKVP
00:05:25radars. These are air traffic control systems,
00:05:28a network of small radars, which are the size of a Starlink, and which
00:05:32Russians place in different places. And the more of these
00:05:35radars there are, the better their interceptors can shoot down our
00:05:38drones. The fewer there are, the harder it is for them to do it. This
00:06:13is
00:06:13a group
00:06:19of several servicemen who hide in
00:06:22forest belts, which are visually very difficult
00:06:25to detect, but again, methods of countering interceptors
00:06:29currently exist, they are applied
00:06:32systematically in the main directions, so, as I said,
00:06:35we, thank God, found a solution to this problem, which was very
00:06:39urgent, and this is our huge success, honestly.
00:06:59tactics, now they just try not to work and adopt some of our practices in
00:07:03the form of mobile groups and interceptor drones, but
00:07:06large air defense is afraid of us, very afraid, we have significantly
00:07:09thinned their ranks is afraid. We have significantly
00:07:13thinned their ranks. One of the exemplary complex
00:07:17operations of the first separate center is the establishment of fire control
00:07:20over Donetsk airport, which the Russian army
00:07:23uses as a logistical hub and
00:07:26drone port. One of the tasks of this mission was to disrupt Shahed
00:07:30launches in coordination with other sites. We
00:07:33understand that if enemy UAVs
00:07:37fly in, we understand that if enemy UAVs
00:07:40fly with a certain interval, and not simultaneously, then it is much easier
00:07:44for us to shoot them down. Thus, by carrying out preventive asymmetric
00:07:48fire impact, we disrupt their plans for a coordinated
00:07:51attack, and thus, this already facilitates the work of our
00:07:55defense force intercept groups, at a minimum, and at a maximum,
00:07:59this generally reduces the enemy's ability to carry out
00:08:02operational-strategic defeats.
00:08:06Operational-strategic defeats. During the operation, three levels of impact were
00:08:09carried out: destruction of launch groups.
00:09:12outstanding in terms of UAVs. And we were interested
00:09:16to see their reaction, it was interesting again to see how
00:09:20quickly they would take any countermeasures. They will
00:09:23implement some
00:09:24countermeasures.
00:09:28At the same time, the night launches of FP-2s, witnessed by
00:09:32Donbass Realities, are complete. Already in the morning, another result
00:09:36of the work of Ukrainian crews will appear in open access.
00:09:39Any target is important, but...
00:09:42Of course, the most important thing is when you hit some target. Any target
00:09:46is important, but of course, the most important thing is when you hit a target that
00:09:50gives an operational or tactical advantage over the enemy. This is,
00:09:54for example, the destruction of enemy communications, the destruction of some
00:09:57expensive PLS system, or the same
00:10:00destruction of air defense, which allows other aircraft
00:10:03to work further, including ours, to hit more and
00:10:07more
00:10:07targets.
00:10:25The logic of war demands from us, our situation demands from us
00:10:29that the device must be mass-produced, as cheap as possible and
00:10:33simple. The last requirement is dictated by the rules
00:10:36of the army, since we have different people coming from society,
00:10:40and the lighter the device, the easier it is to train a person, and the
00:10:44easier it is to fix a problem in the field, which sometimes
00:10:46happens.
00:10:55which targets are priority, which
00:11:03Each of the directions that can be divided even by corps,
00:11:06each of the directions that can be
00:11:10divided even by corps, has its own specifics in terms of targeting,
00:11:16are not, in terms of effect. You understand that if you systematically
00:11:20hit such targets, exactly such an effect will be achieved, in each direction, accordingly, another.
00:11:23not all operations are reported
00:12:25publicly, in addition, the Main Intelligence Directorate, the SBU
00:12:28and other units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are working
00:12:32in this direction. However, according to official data, in May,
00:12:36the main targets of the SBS's middle strikes were Russian
00:12:39air defense systems. A significant part of
00:12:42the strikes were on deployment points and warehouses of the Russian army, among
00:12:46the hit targets were also aviation, fleet,
00:12:49energy and oil infrastructure. It is worth
00:12:52noting that in this statistic,
00:13:25the paradox is that, the paradox is that
00:13:28the existing infrastructure base allows Russians to create every
00:13:32month in each of these segments up to 10
00:13:35units, up to ten units in total, and
00:13:38we eliminated much more, that is, 20-30,
00:13:4240 assets in one month, yes, that is, 20-30, 40 assets
00:13:46in one month, when we in this way, when we
00:13:50thus cleared the way and at the same time flew to
00:13:53Moscow or other cities from time to time. Then Russia fell into a trap, which
00:13:57the Russians themselves call Trishkin-Kaftan, that
00:14:00is, it is called air defense from patches, they started not
00:14:04having enough, that is, everything they had, they pulled to Moscow
00:14:07to St. Petersburg, so we methodically eliminated all of this,
00:14:11approximately within six months, and colossal problems arose in the air defense
00:14:14system, when I say colossal problems, we must
00:14:18understand that their systems, they cover conditionally, one system can cover
00:14:2220-50 km,
00:14:24even... if you place them in a checkerboard pattern, holes are formed, through
00:14:28which we understand where we can fly into, our strikes and
00:14:31deep strikes flew there, our middle
00:14:34strikes and deep strikes flew there. The problems that
00:14:38Ukraine creates had to be recognized by Vladimir Putin as
00:14:41well, however, he stated that strikes on Russian infrastructure do not
00:14:45affect the situation at the front and set the task of increasing
00:14:48the production of air defense
00:14:52systems. about 1,600
00:15:37enterprises that are essential for Russia to
00:15:40continue fighting, but at the same time, we must not forget that, in principle, we
00:15:44see an insane shortage, a deficit of missiles and, accordingly,
00:15:48statements even among the same Russian war correspondents who
00:15:52confirm that there is a shortage of missiles, and
00:15:55moreover, the Russian Federation is trying to use missiles that were decommissioned
00:15:59due to being defective or
00:16:02expired, in addition to the
00:16:06deficit of interceptor missiles, only
00:16:09Ukrainian SBS destroyed/damaged 194 Russian
00:16:13air defense systems in six months. At the same time,
00:16:16it is indicative that, according to our calculations, in June, compared to May,
00:16:20the ratio of targets for middle strikes of unmanned
00:16:23systems changed somewhat, if the damage to
00:16:26air defense elements remained practically at the same level, then
00:16:30the number of strikes on energy, gas and oil
00:16:34infrastructure significantly increased. Obviously, this
00:16:37fits into the strategy of deep strikes on oil refineries,
00:16:41which leads to a fuel crisis in
00:16:44Russia.
00:16:48New realities,
00:16:51gas is being drained, this is how
00:16:54these gasoline tanks float, don't drive
00:16:58people to the edge, yes, let's go, everything, probably people are also now
00:17:01reaching the edge, look, and
00:17:04look, what are you doing, is this the last gas?
00:17:07Listen, the car is new, don't do that with a gun next to my
00:17:11car, I'll fill it up now, if I want, I'll pour it, yes, it's possible to
00:17:15swear,
00:17:17people, damn,
00:17:19there's gas, where is your gas, you bastard, what awaits
00:17:23Russia, Russia awaits, if
00:17:25this story continues, a very difficult period, which, what awaits Russia,
00:17:29Russia awaits, if this story continues, a very difficult
00:17:32period, which will come literally in about one arrest.
00:17:35"It's 2-3 weeks and they will
00:17:38enter the harvesting campaign, the harvest, which begins in late
00:17:42July, early August, they will
00:17:44face a dilemma, these remnants of gasoline and diesel, where to
00:17:48put them,
00:17:50to
00:17:53give them to the army in order to continue offensive
00:17:56actions, if they don't give them away, then
00:18:00they need to give them where, for the harvest or give them to people for gasoline,
00:18:03give them to people for gasoline, because there won't be enough for everything."
00:19:10US intelligence agencies are helping Ukraine. The publication writes
00:19:13about a significant increase in the number of attacks and cites data from
00:19:17the Russian Ministry of Defense that in June, the Russian Federation shot down almost
00:19:2118 thousand Ukrainian UAVs, three times more
00:19:25than in February.
00:19:28When we calculate, for example, the number of air attack assets, we need
00:19:31to count not only the hit targets, but also the
00:19:34enemy's expended resources, because
00:19:38the conditional operation of the air defense system, when Pantsir systems are
00:19:41involved, missiles for Pantsir systems, or, for example, the same
00:19:44S-300 S-400, since there are facts of using exactly such
00:19:48missiles against our deep strikes, this also depletes
00:19:52resources. Regarding the number announced by the Russian
00:19:55Federation, the Russian Federation always lies, which means it will
00:19:59significantly exaggerate the number of air attack assets and
00:20:02report on the effectiveness of its air defense. At the same time, we must
00:20:06say that in fact we have...
00:20:23Omsk Oil Refinery, located at a distance of more than
00:20:262,500 km from Ukraine, has become so far the most
00:20:30distant target of Ukrainian UAVs. To repel
00:20:34the attack, Russia, for example, used its new aircraft.
00:20:37Su-57, but this did not help,
00:20:39OSINT analysts, based on satellite images,
00:20:43record at least 3-4
00:20:45hits,
00:20:48here is our entire factory.
00:20:51burning, 12 pieces, only one
00:20:55was landed, 11
00:20:57hit,
00:21:00so, as for middle strikes, in
00:21:03the context of their impact on the situation at the front, then
00:21:07here, of course, in addition to the strikes we described, the destruction of Russian
00:21:10logistics in the occupied territories plays a large
00:21:14role. Here is a map from French analyst Kliman
00:21:17Malin, as of the end of and...
00:21:20using open data, he identified about 800
00:21:24cases of damage to Russian transport on
00:21:27key highways. In the first week of July,
00:21:30the intensity of the campaign increased from 20 trucks per
00:21:34day in June to 34 every day
00:21:37now. These strikes are not carried out with
00:21:40FP-2s, which we showed, for example, with BPL Hornet
00:21:44or Darts with a warhead of not 100, but about 5
00:21:47kg. They are cheaper and accordingly.
00:23:20in war, we invented a sword, they invented a shield of new
00:23:22technology, we invented another technology,
00:23:26so, as they say, the chase began, for now we are
00:23:29ahead, we'll talk about this in 4 months, the main thing is that
00:23:33we also don't stop there and involve new means for
00:23:37delivering strikes. means for delivering
00:23:40strikes.
00:24:12Obviously, the Ukrainian middle strike campaign was
00:24:15a surprise for the Russian army and is already creating
00:24:18many problems. Especially since in Russia they did not expect such
00:24:22intensity of strikes on their territory. However,
00:24:26everything that is happening is a logical continuation of the war of
00:24:29attrition, both of the army itself and
00:24:31of economic resources. However, where the limit of this
00:24:35attrition is, it is currently difficult to
00:24:38predict. This was Donbass Realities. I am Yaroslav
00:24:41Krechko. See
00:24:42you.
00:26:34how rarely such words are spoken, so it's very

00:26:42you're shouting at me there, Putin, Putin, listen to
00:26:45what he said, it's
00:26:49the 75th anniversary of victory, and
00:26:52what are they guarding him for, yes, yes,
00:26:55guarding, she spoiled everyone's evening,
