00:00:04In Ukraine, we have always talked about unique places
00:00:07and unique people, but that was
00:00:10before. Since February
00:00:142022, the war has changed everything.
00:00:17We are showing a new
00:00:20history of Ukraine. About
00:00:23incredible strength of spirit, about fighting despite
00:00:26everything.
00:00:32Watch the joint project of Radio Svoboda and the Current Time TV channel,
00:00:35what is really happening in Ukraine.
00:00:52Ukraine scales up middle strikes, the Ukrainian army
00:00:56actively hits the operational rear of the Russian army.
00:04:00our equipment, they, just like us, adapt, constantly increase
00:04:04the kill zone, increase the number
00:04:06of means. Statistics are kept on how many aircraft
00:04:10reached the target, specifically for my crews,
00:04:1386%. This is a very, very
00:04:16high coefficient. The vehicle itself, it can be
00:04:18retrofitted, re-equipped with something, change the warhead, this is a very
00:04:22cool platform. Many targets were hit in
00:04:25motion, Tor, Buk were hit at the moment when they
00:04:29were fleeing.
00:05:00attempts are being made to patrol routes with anti-aircraft
00:05:03drones, as well as to increase the number of mobile fire
00:05:07groups, this is in addition to air defense directly near the front
00:05:10line. There is a tiered defense, which
00:05:13is carried out.
00:05:15There is a tiered defense that is carried out by
00:05:18UAV interceptors, sometimes it is more successful, sometimes it is less
00:05:22successful. The effectiveness of detecting targets in the air
00:05:25is ensured by the presence of
00:05:28air traffic control radars. These are air traffic control systems,
00:05:32a network of small radars that are the size of Starlink, and which
00:05:35the Russians deploy in different places, and the more of these
00:05:38radars there are, the better their interceptors can shoot down our drones.
00:05:42The fewer there are, the harder it is for them to do it. It's a fairly simple
00:05:46system, if you explain it like that, at some echelon,
00:05:50again, in different directions, at some of
00:05:53these echelons there are also classic air defense systems, such
00:05:56as Buk, Tor, Pantsir, and so on. there are also
00:06:00classic air defense systems, such as Buk, Tor, Pantsir and so
00:06:04on.
00:06:07the fundamental difference between air defense systems and
00:06:10the fundamental difference in the concept of air defense systems. the concept of interceptors is that
00:06:14air defense systems are much easier to detect by all possible methods
00:06:18and, once detected, are much easier to destroy. Whereas
00:06:21interceptors are a group of people consisting of several servicemen who
00:06:25hide in forest plantations, whom it is very difficult to detect
00:06:29visually, but again, methods of countering interceptors currently
00:06:33exist, they are systematically applied
00:06:36in the main directions, so, as I said, thank God, we found
00:06:40a solution to this problem that existed. operations
00:07:12of the first
00:07:21separate center - establishing fire control over Donetsk
00:07:25airport, which the Russian army uses as a
00:07:28logistics hub and drone port. One of the tasks
00:07:31of this mission was to disrupt the launches of Shaheds in coordination with other
00:07:35platforms. We understand that
00:07:38if enemy UAVs fly
00:07:41from the specified. that if enemy UAVs fly at a certain
00:07:44interval, and not simultaneously, then it is much easier for us
00:07:48to shoot them down, thus carrying out a preventive
00:07:51asymmetrical fire impact, we disrupt their plans for a coordinated
00:07:54attack, and thus, this already facilitates the work of our
00:07:58interceptor groups of the defense forces, at least, and at most,
00:08:02this generally reduces the enemy's ability to carry out
00:08:06operational-strategic defeats, carrying out
00:08:09operational-strategic defeats, during the operation, three levels of impact were carried out:
00:08:12destruction of launch groups, impact on enemy air defense and
00:08:15strikes on airport infrastructure. Ukrainian military
00:08:18note that one should not underestimate the psychological
00:08:22effect. Understanding that you are launching these drones,
00:08:25unidentified ones are flying around the airfield. You understand that you are launching these drones,
00:08:29unidentified ones are flying around the airfield that no one can shoot down
00:08:32properly, and you don't know if they
00:08:35will try to hit you now or something else.
00:08:39Obviously, this is a very serious
00:08:43psychological impact that directly affects the quality
00:08:46of task execution. In such operations, there are very interesting
00:08:49aspects of how the enemy reacts to this. And whenever
00:08:52there is an opportunity to understand what the reaction was, it is very
00:08:56interesting. Of the generalized enemy, we are talking about
00:09:00a specific unit, in this case, we are not talking about some
00:09:03generalized enemy. We are talking about a specific unit. We all
00:09:07know that these are the launch units of Rubicon, which.
00:09:10in the context of the enemy's armed forces is one of the most
00:09:14outstanding in terms of UAVs. And we were interested
00:09:17to see their reaction. It was interesting again to see
00:09:21how quickly they would implement some
00:09:24countermeasures.
00:09:25контрмеры.
00:09:32At the same time, the night launches of FP-2, witnessed by
00:09:35Donbas.Realii, are complete. Already in the morning, another result
00:09:39of the work of Ukrainian forces will be publicly available.
00:09:43any target is important, but of course the most important thing is
00:09:47when you hit some target, any target is important, but of course,
00:09:50the most important thing is when you hit a target that gives an operational
00:09:54or tactical advantage over the enemy, this is, for example,
00:09:57hitting enemy communications, hitting some expensive
00:10:01air system, or the same hitting of air defense, which
00:10:05allows other aircraft to continue working, including
00:10:08ours, to hit more and more targets.
00:10:26the logic of war requires us, the logic of war
00:10:30requires of us, and our situation requires of us that
00:10:33the apparatus must be massive, as cheap as possible and
00:10:36simple, the last requirement is dictated by the rules
00:10:39of the army, since we have different people coming from society,
00:10:43and the lighter the apparatus, the easier it is to train a person, and the
00:10:47easier it is to fix a problem in the field, which sometimes happens, well,
00:10:51sometimes it happens.
00:11:06Each of the directions, which can even be divided
00:11:09by corps, each of the directions, which can even be divided
00:11:13by corps, has its own specifics in terms of targeting, which
00:11:16targets are priority, which are not, in terms of effect, you
00:11:20understand that if you systematically hit such and such targets,
00:11:23it will be carried out precisely.
00:12:25pilot systems, the conclusion is rather schematic, as not all
00:12:29operations are publicly reported. In addition, the HUR, SBU and other
00:12:32units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are working in this direction.
00:12:36However, according to official data, in May, the main
00:12:40targets of the SBS's mid-strikes were Russian
00:12:43air defense assets. A significant part
00:12:46of the strikes were on deployment points and warehouses of the Russian army. Among
00:12:49the hit targets were also aviation, fleet,
00:12:52energy and oil.
00:13:25without which they are simply blind and cannot work.
00:13:28The paradox is that the existing infrastructure base allows
00:13:32Russians to create up to 10 units in each of these segments
00:13:36every month. Up to
00:13:39ten units in total, and we shot down
00:13:42much more, that is, 20-30, 40
00:13:46means in one month, so 20-30, 40 means
00:13:49in one month. When we thus.
00:13:51чином.
00:15:37the backbone of production facilities, which is about
00:15:411,600 enterprises, which are key to
00:15:45Russia's ability to continue fighting, but at the same time,
00:15:48we should not forget that, in principle, we see a furious shortage, a deficit
00:15:51of missiles, and accordingly, statements even among those same
00:15:55Russian military bloggers who confirm that
00:15:59there is a shortage of missiles, and moreover, Russia is trying
00:16:02to use missiles that were decommissioned because
00:16:06they were defective.
00:16:09In addition to the shortage of interceptor missiles, Ukrainian
00:16:12SBS alone destroyed or damaged
00:16:16194 Russian air defense systems in six months. At the same
00:16:19time, it is indicative that, according to our calculations, in June, compared to
00:16:23May, the ratio of targets for mid-strikes by unmanned
00:16:26system forces changed somewhat: if
00:16:29the destruction of air defense elements remained practically at the same
00:16:32level, then the number of strikes on energy
00:16:36and oil infrastructure
00:16:40significantly increased. Obviously, this fits into the strategy of deep-strikes on
00:16:43oil refineries, which leads to a fuel
00:16:46crisis in
00:16:47Russia.
00:16:51New realities, gasoline is drained,
00:16:55that's it, that's what
00:16:58melts gas tanks. Don't drive
00:17:01people to the edge. Yes, let's go now, probably, people will also
00:17:04get to the edge.
00:17:10And you look, well, what are you doing, this is the last gasoline, listen, the car is new, don't do that with a pistol near my
00:17:14car, I'll fill it up now, if I want, I'll water it, to hell
00:17:18with it
00:17:20you can,
00:17:22people, damn, there is gasoline, where the hell
00:17:26is your gasoline, what awaits Russia, Russia awaits, if
00:17:30this story continues for a very simple period, what awaits Russia,
00:17:34Russia awaits, if this story continues.
00:17:46in the harvest, which begins in late July, early August, they will
00:17:50face a dilemma: these remaining gasoline and diesel, what to do with them,
00:17:53for
00:17:56that, or give them to the army in order to carry out further
00:17:59offensive actions, if they are not given, then
00:18:03where should they be given, for harvest or given to people for
00:18:06gasoline.
00:19:07reported that US intelligence services are helping
00:19:11Ukraine to lay out routes and bypass Russian air defenses
00:19:14to strike oil refineries. The publication writes
00:19:17about a significant increase in the number of attacks and cites data
00:19:20from the Russian Ministry of Defense that in June, Russia shot down almost
00:19:2418,000 Ukrainian UAVs, three times more
00:19:28than in February. When we count, for example, when we count,
00:19:32for example, the number of air attack assets, we should not count only
00:19:35hit objects.
00:20:07its air defense. At the same time, it must be said that in reality we are significantly
00:20:11increasing our capabilities to strike at enemy territory, but this
00:20:15is more about the technical characteristics of the means, because
00:20:18the recent hits in Omsk show that we have significantly increased
00:20:22the distance at which we can
00:20:24operate.
00:20:27The Omsk oil refinery, located at a distance of more than
00:20:292,500 km from Ukraine, has become the most
00:20:33distant target of Ukrainian UAVs so far. For repelling.
00:20:37Russia, for example, deployed its new Su-57
00:20:40aircraft, but this did not help. OSINT analysts,
00:20:44based on satellite images, record at
00:20:47least three or four hits.
00:20:51here's our whole factory is burning,
00:20:5512 pieces, only one
00:20:58was shot down, 11
00:21:00hit,
00:21:03so, as for mid-strikes in
00:21:06the context of their impact on the situation at the front, then
00:21:10here, of course, in addition to the strikes we described, the destruction of Russian
00:21:14logistics in the occupied territories plays a large
00:21:17role. Here is a map from French analyst
00:21:21Clément Molin as of the end of June, using
00:21:24open data, he identified about 800 cases
00:21:28of damage to Russian transport on key
00:21:31roads. In the first week of July,
00:21:33the intensity of the campaign increased from 20 trucks a
00:21:37day in June to 34 every
00:21:40day now. These strikes are not carried out using
00:21:43FP-2s, which we showed, for example, but using Hornet
00:21:47or Darts UAVs with a warhead not of 100 kg, but about 5
00:21:50kg, they are cheaper and accordingly, more
00:21:54massive. In general, Clément Molin notes that the Ukrainian
00:21:57mid-strike campaign is focused on railway
00:22:01infrastructure, bridges and the isolation
00:22:04of Crimea. Strategic impact, this will not have yet.
00:22:08Strategic impact, this will not have yet. It
00:22:11has an operational impact, specifically for the southern
00:22:14grouping. Moreover, the Russians, whoever they are, are not
00:22:17idiots. We can blame them.
00:22:50they have very interesting electronic warfare equipment, by the way, in addition, they have very interesting
00:22:53electronic warfare equipment, which, by the way, is manufactured in temporarily occupied
00:22:56Crimea, they allow to jam Starlink in a square of
00:23:0020-25 km, this will all
00:23:03allow them to solve a certain problem along this route, so we
00:23:07have a window of opportunity, another 3-4 months, for sure,
00:23:11then it will be much worse, three or four
00:23:14months for sure, then it will be much worse, and this is absolutely normal, it
00:23:18has always happened.
00:23:21this is absolutely normal, it has always happened in war, we invented
00:23:24the sword, they invented the shield of new technology, we invented
00:23:28another technology, so the chase, so to speak,
00:23:31began, for now we are ahead, let's talk about it in
00:23:354 months, the main thing is that we also do not stop at this and
00:23:39involve new means for striking,
00:23:42means for inflicting
00:23:43strikes.
00:24:20the Russian army and is already creating quite a few problems, especially since
00:24:23Russia did not expect such an intensity of strikes on its
00:24:27territory. However, everything that is happening is a logical
00:24:31continuation of the war of attrition, both of the army itself and of
00:24:35economic resources, however, where the limit of this
00:24:38attrition is, it is hardly possible to
00:24:41predict now. These were Donbas.Realii. I am Yaroslav
