Jackson HinkleGUEST
Yes.
Jackson HinkleGUEST
And it all started, uh, you know, with the first, the first shot was fired in the city of Sloviansk, which to those, uh, in the audience that are following this, uh, this battle very closely, you'd know that Sloviansk and Kramatorsk are the two last major cities in Donetsk controlled by the Ukrainians.
Jackson HinkleGUEST
But very soon there's gonna be Russian forces inside the city centers of both of those respective towns.
Jackson HinkleGUEST
And, uh, this was all started by Ukrainians.
Glenn DiesenGUEST
in the Kharkov-Zumi region, but most importantly in Donbass.
Glenn DiesenGUEST
They had a setback in the northern part of the pincer against Slavyansk and Krematorsk, but in the south they're going up, also coming up on the east.
Glenn DiesenGUEST
in the big crisis which i think is going to pop up in the media over the next weeks will be what's happening in zaporozhye because orejov will soon fall to the russians and at the same time they're also advancing uh up up in the north so as they start to close in on zaporozhye city I think it's going to change the war to a large extent.
Glenn DiesenGUEST
And this is just the front lines.
Boldizsár GyőriGUEST
And so I was sitting in that position, and I saw when the ground robot reached the first line, craters everywhere, just like on the moon, and like these very tired, very dirty faces emerged from the bushes, quickly took the supplies, mainly water, it was summer, a shovel to dig, et cetera, a generator to produce electricity, and they quickly disappeared back into the darkness, just like astronauts in black and white jumping in front of the screen or, or the, the camera.
Boldizsár GyőriGUEST
A couple days later, I visited the 24th Brigade in Kramatorsk.
Boldizsár GyőriGUEST
They are defending mainly the Chasiv Yar direction, which is absolutely the toughest, hottest, worst possible place to be, uh, when it comes to this front line in Ukraine.
Boldizsár GyőriGUEST
They were sending in two groups of absolute green rookie infantrymen for the first time in their life to the very forward positions.

[news music] Welcome back.
Roger MoorhouseHOST
And what about, um, civilian populations in places like where you've been to places like Kramatorsk? I think you had a, a chat with a, a family there.
Boldizsár GyőriGUEST
Yeah.
Simon WhistlerHOST
If anything, Russia's ground offensive has gotten more aggressive, concentrating on what's known as the Fortress Belt.
Simon WhistlerHOST
A string of four industrial cities – Slovyansk, Kramatorsk, Druzhkivka, and Kostantynivka – formed the backbone of Ukraine's eastern defenses.
Simon WhistlerHOST
The belt is critical for defending what territory Ukraine still has in the Donbas region, specifically Donetsk Oblast, and losing it wouldn't just mean losing the Donbas.
Simon WhistlerHOST
In earlier times, it would have meant that Russia could blitz through the less defensible, sparsely populated flat plains to the west.
Simon WhistlerHOST
Ukraine does have some drone teams still active in the city, according to open-source tracker Clement Molin, but it's only a matter of time before Russian troops overwhelm them.
Simon WhistlerHOST
While Kostantinivka is the city most likely to fall into Russian hands, it isn't the only one that's got observers worried.
Simon WhistlerHOST
Kramatorsk, further north, is also in a bad way.
Simon WhistlerHOST
CNN reported that nearly all of the city's bridges have been destroyed, and guided bombs and drones rain down on the city on a near-daily basis.
GerdesHOST
Marko Mihkelson, and Marko is the, uh, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Estonian Parliament.
GerdesHOST
He just arrived in Kyiv after a trip to Sloviansk, Kramatorsk, and Pavlohrad.
GerdesHOST
Firsthand experience in the kill zone, together with meetings with brigade commanders, gives me a much deeper understanding of the nature of this war, the situation on the front, and what Ukraine needs to win.
GerdesHOST
So good on him for actually seeing firsthand, getting ground truth.
