In the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, focusing on the operational situations in various directions. The enemy launched attacks using ballistic missiles, drones, and aircraft, resulting in damage to infrastructure and military engagements. The speaker highlights the importance of a legal firm providing free assistance to military personnel and their families dealing with military service and financial payments. The enemy's efforts to advance on the Pokrovsk, Harkivske, and Limanske directions have been met with strong Ukrainian defense, resulting in minimal progress. The speaker also mentions the deployment of Russian forces along the Belarusian border, but there is no evidence of offensive operations on the Volynska and Poleska fronts. The situation remains under control of Ukrainian defense forces. Additionally, the speaker discusses the evacuation of civilians from the Kurske Operational Zone and the loss of over 1,300 enemy personnel in recent military actions. Germany continues to provide military and technical assistance to Ukraine, and the European Union's gas reserves have surpassed maximum capacity, ensuring a stable gas supply for the European Union. The speaker also mentions the passing of a law restricting the activities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate and several urgent legislative matters discussed during an unexpected session of the Ukrainian parliament.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker begins by reminding viewers that a legal firm is waiting for applications from military personnel and their families for free legal assistance in dealing with military service and financial payments. The speaker also mentions a volunteer fund raising money for the purchase of drones for Ukrainian brigades, which have been effective in destroying enemy equipment and personnel. The speaker then moves on to discuss the operational situation, reporting that the enemy launched two ballistic missiles, one of which was a North Korean Iskander M, and several drones and aircraft from various regions, resulting in the destruction of multiple drones and damage to infrastructure in Ternopil Oblast. Despite these efforts, a fire in the Rostov Oblast continues to burn. The speaker also mentions 158 combat engagements on the front lines.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the operational directions of the ongoing conflict between Russian forces and Ukrainian forces. The focus is on the Harkivske, Kupianske, and Limanske directions. According to the speaker, there were 158 military engagements, with about one-third occurring on the Pokrovsk direction. The enemy reportedly attacked Ukrainian positions and populated areas near their positions, using one rocket strike and 103 aerial attacks. In the Harkivske direction, the enemy continued offensive actions near the settlements of Lipcy and Volchans'k, trying to build up their military potential to carry out operations, such as regaining control of an industrial plant and crossing the river in Volchans'k to establish a foothold. The front line remains unchanged despite the enemy's efforts. The Kupianske direction has seen 14 military engagements daily, with the Ukrainian forces defending against enemy attacks in areas like Hlushkivka, Stelmakhivka, Kruhlykovka, and Andriivka. The enemy aims to attack along the entire front line in search of weak spots. The Kupianske direction is unique due to its well-structured defense and high resilience. The Limanske direction is crucial for the enemy's future advance towards Slaviansk and Kramaторsk, the last significant agglomeration under Ukrainian control in the Donetsk region. The enemy's progress on the Limanske direction is expected to be challenging due to the strong Ukrainian defense, and any advance would likely result in defensive battles in the industrial zone, which was fortified since 2005. The enemy's attacks on the front line fluctuate, with a decrease to 810 attacks and a sudden increase to 1920 attacks daily.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08," the speaker discusses the ongoing military conflict and the Russian enemy's attempts to find weak spots in the Ukrainian defense lines. The Limanское direction saw 11 battles in one day, but the Ukrainian forces were able to repel all attacks without any significant progress made by the enemy. The enemy has been trying to concentrate their efforts on narrow areas such as Ivan Daryevka, Sporna, and Verkhnekamenka, in an attempt to break through the Ukrainian defense. However, the Ukrainian forces have been holding their ground, forcing the enemy to retreat and regroup. The intensity of fighting on the Severное direction has decreased, but the line remains unchanged. The enemy has been unsuccessful in making significant advances on the Kramatorskoe direction, where they had attempted to make seven attacks on Ukrainian positions. The enemy has been putting immense pressure on the Torozhkoe and Pokrovskoe directions, even increasing their efforts with additional reinforcements. Despite this, the Ukrainian forces continue to hold their ground. The enemy is reportedly experiencing difficulties with their reserves, as they have been exerting high pressure on the operational zone in Donetsk. The Ukrainian forces continue to repel enemy attacks with artillery and air support, but the results are not always successful. Overall, the front line remains unchanged in various directions.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08," the speaker discusses the ongoing conflict between Ukrainian forces and the enemy in various directions, specifically in the areas of Torchok, Pokrovsk, and Kurakhovo. The enemy attempted to push through the Ukrainian defense with numerous attacks, primarily in the area of Severna Liypka, near the city of Torchok. Despite five serious assaults, the enemy was unable to make significant progress, and urban combat continues on the outskirts of Torchok. The enemy declared control over the settlement of New York, but Ukrainian forces are holding their ground and continue to defend the area. The enemy also made a powerful push on the Pokrovsk front, launching 63 attacks, with the most activity reported in the areas of Novogrodovka, Mikhailovka, and Krasny Yar. Ukrainian forces are gradually withdrawing to avoid encirclement by enemy forces. The speaker also mentions that the line of defense on the Pokrovsk front has shifted, as seen on the map, and that Ukrainian forces are holding their ground in the areas of Nevelska and Konstantinovka, despite the enemy's repeated attempts to advance. No attacks have been successful, and the line of defense remains unchanged in the Removsky area, near Vodianoye and Ugledar, as well as in the areas of Vladimirovka and Sladkoye.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torchok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the military situation on various fronts. The Russian forces have been advancing on the Orekhovske and Gulyaypole directions without significant changes, with occasional skirmishes and positional battles. The Hersonskie and Pridneprovskie directions have seen one failed attempt at a shтурm, which was also unsuccessful. Our troops have been defending their positions on the left bank of the Dnieper River and continue to inflict substantial damage on the enemy. There are two non-combatant directions, Volynska and Poleska, where the situation remains unchanged. However, the speaker cautions viewers to read Western press reports carefully, as they have reported that Belarus has deployed one-third of its forces and that Russian forces have deployed S-400 air defense systems and missile brigades along the border. These forces have been in place for a year, protecting Belarus's northern border and airspace. Despite these reports, there is no evidence of a second missile brigade being deployed, and the Russian and Belarusian air forces have not launched any strikes against drones or our territory. Our intelligence does not currently detect any signs of enemy formations for offensive operations on the Volynska and Poleska fronts, and the situation remains under control of Ukrainian defense forces. Furthermore, the speaker notes that the enemy continues to maintain a military presence in the Chernihiv oblast and conduct reconnaissance activities while continuing to shell our territory from their own. Despite these challenges, we are continuing to evacuate civilians from border areas to ensure their safety.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the ongoing military situation in the Kurske Operational Zone. Since Monday, there has been a forced evacuation of families with children from the area to avoid exposing them to danger. The situation is generally under control by the Ukrainian forces, with approximately 2700 Russian soldiers and officers surrounded in an area along the Ukrainian border and the Se river. The Ukrainian forces have captured around 12,250 square kilometers of territory and control 92 settlements. In the past few days, Ukrainian forces have made progress in the village of Vishenka, leaving only a few kilometers to close the encirclement of Russian forces. The Russians have attempted to establish a pontoon crossing over the river, but the Ukrainian forces have prevented this. The situation remains tense, and the lack of logistics and supplies for the encircled Russian forces may force them to find alternative means to escape or surrender. The only populated area under Ukrainian control is Martynivka, located on the highway towards Lugovo. The Ukrainian forces are expanding their flanks and working to secure more territory.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses military actions and losses on the Ukrainian frontline. Over the past day, Ukrainian forces conducted nine airstrikes, missile strikes, and artillery attacks on enemy positions, resulting in the loss of over 1,300 enemy personnel and 55 units of rockets, among other equipment. Additionally, a fire broke out at a government oil reserve in the Russian city of Proletarsk, affecting over 70 storage tanks for oil and fuel. The fire began on two tanks and quickly spread, with temperatures playing a critical role in the intensity of the blaze. Despite local efforts to contain the fire, it continued to spread, and over 500 firefighters, 80 special firefighting vehicles, and three firefighting trains were deployed to combat the blaze. At least 41 people have been reported injured.

00:35:00

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on the Toretsk, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the ongoing fire at the Kavказ plant in Ukraine, which has resulted in over 10,000 MT of firefighting efforts according to official statistics. The fire cannot be extinguished due to high temperatures and polluted air. Meanwhile, the front is not making significant progress in occupying Ukrainian territories. The speaker then shifts the conversation to the geopolitical situation in the country, mentioning that the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has accepted an invitation to visit Ukraine and meet with President Zelensky. Modi is reportedly not acting as a mediator or making any concessions, but rather intending to observe the situation in Ukraine firsthand. Additionally, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has reaffirmed Germany's support for Ukraine and announced new military aid, including Iris-SLS air defense systems, 14.15mm artillery shells, 10 marine drones, and 26 Vector unmanned aerial vehicles for reconnaissance and mine clearance. The speaker also notes that Germany has recently updated its list of military aid to Ukraine.

00:40:00

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the discussion revolves around the ongoing support from Germany to Ukraine in military and technical aspects. Germany recently provided military-technical assistance to Ukraine, including tanks and artillery, worth billions of dollars. However, Russia's plans to build a second gas pipeline, Sila Sibiri 2, to sell gas to Asian countries have been delayed due to disagreements over pricing. China wants to buy Russian gas at prices closer to domestic prices without paying for transportation costs, while Gazprom opposes this. Ukraine has received military aid from Denmark worth over 100 million euros, allowing it to use Danish weapons to defend against Russian aggression. However, the use of American-made weapons is a point of contention, with Denmark stating that it is within the rules of war to defend itself and target enemy infrastructure and military objectives on Ukrainian territory. The Biden administration's plans and restrictions may limit Ukraine's ability to attack Russian forces on their territory. Europe is preparing for winter, with gas storage facilities nearly full, ensuring a smooth transition even without Ukrainian transit. The contract for the pipeline is set to expire in December, and once the pipeline is closed, the transit will cease.

00:45:00

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Advance on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. My Goes to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the European Union's gas reserves, which have surpassed the maximum capacity and are expected to exceed the EU's target by November. The speaker believes this will resolve the issue of cold weather and ensure a stable gas supply for the European Union, even without Ukrainian transit. However, the loss of Ukrainian transit is significant for Russia as it earns around 11 billion dollars annually from it. Putin's visit to Azerbaijan is an attempt to sell gas to Europe through the Azerbaijani pipeline, bypassing Russian territory. The speaker also mentions the passing of a law in the Ukrainian parliament that restricts the activities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, which is accused of propaganda and espionage against Ukraine. The law, which was passed in the second reading, will take effect after the president's signature and publication. The speaker also mentions several urgent legislative matters that were discussed during the unexpected session of the Ukrainian parliament, including the regulation of religious organizations' activities related to the Russian Orthodox Church. The new law grants the State Service for Ethno-Political Issues and Freedom of Conscience the power to initiate a lawsuit to ban a religious organization if its leaders are convicted of crimes against Ukraine's national security or other criminal offenses.

00:50:00

In this section of the YouTube video titled "20.08 Front Continues to Move on Torczok, Pokrovsk, and Kursk Directions. I'm Going to Kyiv," the speaker discusses the legal approach to individual churches to avoid general resolutions and prevent hostile churches from operating in Ukraine. The approach is differentiated for each church, meaning if a representative is caught engaging in espionage, the church will be automatically closed. The Ukrainian Security Services have the right to stop filing a lawsuit and cease the church's activities. The speaker emphasizes the importance of controlling hostile churches on Ukrainian territory for the betterment of society and national security. He also mentions his legal company is available for military personnel and their families to provide legal assistance with military service and financial issues. The viewer is encouraged to download the mobile application to establish a direct connection with the legal company. The speaker also reminds the audience of the Nezlamny Serdcia (Unbreakable Hearts) volunteer fund, which is still accepting donations for the production of drones to aid Ukraine's defense forces. The requisites for the fund can be found in the video's description. The speaker expresses gratitude to the sponsors and those supporting his channel. Together, they will continue to support Ukraine's defense forces and strive for victory.
