In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Тяжелые бои на Авдеевском и Марьинском направлениях. Европа говорит о защите от рф," the speaker discusses the night of February 22, 2023, which was marked by tense air battles and Ukrainian defense against enemy drones and air raids. The adversary launched ten drones from the Primorsko-Ahtarsk area and employed an anti-radar missile from the Black Sea, likely from a Su-35 or Su-34 aircraft. Eight drones were destroyed in Poltava, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, and Kharkiv regions by the Ukrainian Air Force and air defense forces. During the past day, there were 64 battles on the front line, and the enemy carried out four missile strikes, 113 air attacks, and 105 rocket launcher assaults. Regrettably, civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure resulted from these attacks. The adversary has been employing Soviet-era Kira aerial bombs, now fitted with wings for guided flight, enabling more precise strikes on targets. This tactic allows them to inflict damage on Ukraine economically and psychologically. Ukraine is experiencing almost daily over 100 air attacks, illustrating the enemy's relentless pursuit to inflict damage. Additionally, artillery attacks targeted over 120 populated areas in Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Dnipropetrovsk, and Nikolaev oblasts.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02," heavy fighting is reported on the Avдеevsko and Mar'insko directions, with the European Union discussing defense against Russia. The Russian forces tried to storm our positions but suffered heavy losses with no significant achievements. In Hersonskaia oblast, there was news of an offensive with the 810th separate Marine brigade of the Russian Federation and the 123rd motorized rifle regiment. Around 60 soldiers from these three units were reportedly killed, along with their commanding officers. Deportations of Ukrainian citizens are acknowledged in occupied territories, with the "governor" of the region, Balitsky, admitting to the forced displacement of Ukrainians. He argued it was for their own benefit as the occupation authorities would have had to deal with them more harshly otherwise. Ukrainian citizens were given an ultimatum: either support the Russian military operation or face death or expulsion. Balitsky also noted that families who did not want to leave were forcibly deported, and they were given water at the border as they were leaving. This testimony further highlights the genocide perpetrated by the Russian occupiers against the Ukrainian population. Additionally, Ukrainian air forces carried out strikes against the enemy's command and control centers and concentration areas of personnel and equipment over the past days.

In this section of the 22.02 YouTube video titled "Heavy battles on Avdeevsky and Mariinkas directions. Europe speaks of protecting from RF," the destruction of enemy forces and infrastructure is discussed. The Ukrainian military used complexes against the enemy, including aircraft and artillery, to destroy an Su-34 fighter-bomber, three reconnaissance drones, and caused significant losses to the enemy, with approximately 1,160 personnel and 36 vehicles destroyed. The Ukrainian Security Service is also highlighted for its initiative in developing and producing powerful drones for attacks in the Black Sea, with a focus on targeting the Crimean Bridge once again. Despite the rhetoric of Russian officials about targeting the bridge this year, the Ukrainian Forces are also preparing to detonate it to clear the Black Sea of remaining ships from the Black Sea Fleet, which currently possesses three submarines and four surface ships capable of launching missile attacks on Ukrainian territory.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Тяжелые бои на Авдеевском и Марьинском направлениях. Европа говорит о защите от rf," the speaker discusses the effectiveness of a drone named CBAB during the ongoing conflict. Weighing 850 kg and capable of traveling at speeds up to 90 km/h, this unmanned underwater vehicle is difficult to detect due to its material which does not reflect electromagnetic waves, making it almost undetectable by radar or echolocation. Despite its size, nine vessels from the Black Sea Fleet have been damaged or sunk with the help of this drone, including the one responsible for the destruction of the Krymsky Bridge. The Ukrainian Security Service and organization UNIT2, responsible for satellite and drone operations, have launched a campaign to raise funds to produce 35 more of these drones. Viewers are encouraged to contribute to this cause to help Ukraine defend its waters and impact enemy vessels in the Black Sea.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Тяжелые бои на Авдеевском и Марьинском направлениях. Европа говорит о защите от рф.", Czech President Petr Pavel revealed that Ukraine had found 800,000 artillery shells, with 300,000 being 122mm caliber and 500,000 155mm caliber. These South Korean and South African shells surpass the amount the European Union supplied to Ukraine last year. Canada has offered to pay for their transportation from their storage locations in Ukraine. Petr Pavel made this announcement to convince France to release funds, but France continues to block this transaction from leaving the European Union. Poland proposed creating a European army of volunteers to deter Russia, and the European Union is considering this proposal. Amid concerns over Donald Trump's NATO unity remarks, Poland conducted a sociological survey revealing that few Poles or Germans are willing to defend their country with weapons. Thus, creating a professional army to protect the European Union on its external borders has been suggested. Additionally, Donald Tusk announced that the border between Poland and Ukraine would soon be unblocked, with all transport crossings considered critical infrastructure, subject to special security measures, allowing for normal operations with no hindrance to goods and cargo.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Heavy Battles on Avdeevsky and Marinsky Directions. Europe Speaks on Protecting from RF," discussions revolve around the transit of cargo, primarily military supplies, across the Ukrainian-Polish border. While these should ideally be permitted, the current situation may result in the establishment of a border zone with escorting forces to secure it, allowing protesters to continue their demonstrations nearby. Additionally, Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, announced that the negotiations regarding Ukraine's EU membership have been delayed until June and attributed the delay to the ongoing European election campaign and upcoming elections in the European Parliament. The Spanish Minister of Defense, Roberta Robles, has pointed out that there is a genuine risk of Russian aggression against NATO member states, with potential conflicts happening both in the immediate and medium-term future (approximately 3 to 5 years). Italy and Denmark have already signed safety agreements with Ukraine, with Italy focusing on military-technical cooperation and assistance instead of guarantees that do not require ratification. In related news, Ukrainian airspace continues to suffer losses regarding aircraft, bombs, and missiles, with yet another aircraft bomb loss reported on February 18, 2023, in the village of Solo. Locals were evacuated, and Russian bomb disposal teams neutralized the explosive device. The exact cause of the munitions' appearance remains unclear.
00:40:00
in this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02," the speaker discusses the technical wear and tear leading to munitions falling from Russian aircraft on the Avdeevsk and Mar'insk directions. He mentions that bombs and rockets often fall due to technical failures, which cause the undercarriage to give way or the bombs to disconnect from the plane. If a bomb falls and detonates nearby, it can cause significant damage to the surrounding area. For example, there was a case where a rocket landed and exploded in a rural village, killing 12 people and injuring others. Furthermore, aircraft parts wear out in the Belgorod region, and the loss of bombs on Russian territory is becoming a routine occurrence. The speaker alludes to a technical park for aviation where these issues are occurring. He then discusses the potential use of cell phone signals as a guidance system for rockets. Russian forces could use a telephone number to track its location and serve as a beacon for a incoming missile. However, the speaker advises against making calls, as Russian radio-technical intelligence stations are capable of detecting phone signals. Conversely, Russian forces may locate concentrations of cell phones to identify military targets.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Тяжелые бои на Авдеевском и Марьинском направлениях. Европа говорит о защите от рф," discussion centered around the Russian-made Kalibr (Каба) cruise missiles and their potential threat to European countries. The speaker notes that these missiles use image recognition technology for targeting, making it challenging to detect and counteract them due to their small size and limited radar cross-section. Even advanced systems like Iron Dome, ASRAAM, or Leopard 2 tanks have limitations in defeating these missiles. Stoltenberg's comments about the potential to strike targets beyond Ukrainian borders have raised questions about the use of additional Western weaponry against Russian territory, which remains a contentious issue. The speaker expresses doubts about the willingness of Western countries to allow the usage of their weapons in this manner, leaving the potential for self-defense the only viable option.
00:50:00
In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02 Тяжелые бои на Авдеевском и Марьинском направлениях. Европа говорит о защите от рф," the speaker discusses the importance of drones in the Ukrainian military's defensive strategy, especially in reaching deep targets with their firepower. He explains that they have limited options and depend heavily on Poland for fuel supplies, which Poland cannot afford to lose due to the significant revenue it brings. Therefore, Ukraine hopes to rely on Romania and Bulgaria if Poland stops supplying fuel. The speaker also mentions that NATO countries consider Ukrainian infrastructure, including fuel depots, as strategic objectives deserving special protection. Consequently, their protection from foreign elements will be ensured. This solution, according to the speaker, will not be critical for Ukraine but could be significant for Poland, who stands to lose a significant source of income from fuel exports.
00:55:00
In this section of the YouTube video titled "22.02," Oleg, a speaker, expresses support for Ukraine's successful resistance against Russia's invasion, including their battle against motorcycles and T-55 and T-62 tanks. He then brings up the destruction of the Crimean Bridge and calls on Russian citizens supporting Ukraine to provide personal data of those who went to war to kill Ukrainians. The speaker also shares stories of European countries' past struggles for freedom and how they managed to win despite weaker enemies, inspiring the audience to support Ukraine and resist Russian fascism. A viewer's comment is read, discussing Russian military's false reports of victories and the difficulties of extracting troops from Ukraine once peace is established. Additionally, the speaker shares geographical information about islands in the Bering Strait between Russia and the United States. A comment about Polish milk is also mentioned, but the speaker does not engage with it. Overall, the speakers express support for Ukraine and encourage resistance against Russian aggression.

The scene transitions to a distraught young soldier, haunted by the destruction of his village and unwilling to help a pleading grandmother after being armed in the past. The segment echoes Golda Meir's words about confronting those who mean harm, emphasizing the importance of standing up against aggression. The conversation then delves into Russia's manipulation of religion and terrorism to further their objectives, disregarding other ideologies or individuals in their path. The discussion concludes with the mysterious death of a man named Morozov, believed to be a result of Russian involvement while he resisted carrying out a Ministry of Defense order. The speaker leaves the audience with a note of optimism, encouraging support for Ukraine and an end to the invasion.
