    War in Ukraine, Analytics. Day 811 (part1): How Was Kharkov Failure Made Possible?

    In today's war diary, Nikolai Feldman and Alexey Arestovich discussed the main news on the 811th day of war:

    00:00 Statement by General Budanov on Russian attacks in Kharkov and Sumy regions: chaos or collapse of control on the third year of war? What is happening with defense of Ukraine?
    14:05 Does the head of military intelligence Budanov have problems in communication with President Zelensky?
    16:10 Interview with commander of Ukrainian military brigade Fedosenko: “... There is a 70% chance that Russia will be able to occupy the rest of Donbass. The question is how long it might take."
    20:13 Sharp problems faced by Ukrainian troops. Lack of fortifications, the money has been stolen, the Russians have added another front, amendment spam at the law on mobilization in Ukraine.. crimes against the Ukrainian people.
    33:38 This week, Arestovych regretted leaving the Office of the President (OP) for the first time. Someone really needed this...
    37:45 Russia does not have the force to take Sumy, Chernigov, Kharkov, but border villages vill likely be captured. Will there be an evacuation of people from border settlements under a threat of Russian invasion? The government is making people's situation worse every day.
    42:46 Conditional "worst-case" scenarios: how should people behave in front-line settlements?
    45:50 Air defense for front-line regions. The Russians are provoking panic and want to show that Ukraine cannot protect its citizens.
    48:20 Protecting Kharkov from Russian weapons is now an unsolvable problem.
    49:30 Current attack on Kharkov region may last several days. Attacks on Kharkov will continue until the end of the war.
