00:00We are in Kramatorsk, east of Ukraine, with the special envoy of France 24, Emmanuelle Chaz.

00:07Hello Emmanuelle, on the 6th day of this incursion that took place in Russia,

00:12the fighting continues on the Russian soil.

00:17Yes, absolutely Sandrine, the fighting continues.

00:20On the Ukrainian side, we always respect the operational silence.

00:24We have no information about the military operations.

00:28The only information we have is on the Russian side.

00:30So we have these statements from the Ministry of Defense, these statements from the Kremlin,

00:34and then of course the Russian social networks.

00:36So information that is difficult to verify independently.

00:40Anyway, what we see from these Russian statements is that the fighting continues.

00:46There are statements that state new incursions,

00:51still in the Kursk oblast, which took place last night.

00:56There are new columns of Ukrainian soldiers who have entered the country.

01:01So the situation is not under control,

01:03since the Ukrainian soldiers are still present on the Russian soil by thousands.

01:08This Ukrainian operation surprised everyone.

01:12It surprised in Russia, it also surprised the commentators, the international observers.

01:17This maneuver is the first maneuver of this magnitude.

01:22We do not yet know the military success,

01:24but in any case, strategically, politically, it is already a success,

01:28since it completely destabilized Russia.

01:31So one of the goals is to push Russia to withdraw some of its troops from the Eastern Front,

01:37especially where I am, about twenty kilometers from the front line, here in Kramatorsk.

01:42We obviously go to war every day.

01:45And this strategy, we will have to see if it actually succeeds,

01:50if the Russian troops will end up calming down the assaults against the Ukrainian troops here.

02:00In any case, this offensive in Kursk, in the Kursk region, continues.

02:05And on the Ukrainian side, you mentioned it, Volodymyr Zelensky, the president,

02:09justified it last night by saying that the war was returning to the aggressor country,

02:14since we must not forget that this Russian-Ukrainian war

02:17was initiated unilaterally by Russia.

02:22It is an aggression war that began against Ukraine

02:25and which is now returning to the Russian territory.

02:28Emmanuelle, Ukraine was also particularly targeted last night by the Russians.

02:35Absolutely.

02:36More than fifty drones were intercepted by Ukrainian anti-aircraft defense throughout the country.

02:42The capital, Kiev, was also hit by missile fire.

02:47The debris of one of them fell in the suburbs of Kiev, in the city of Brovary.

02:52They killed two people, a 35-year-old man and his four-year-old son.

02:57There were several injured people, including a teenager.

03:00Here in Kramatorsk, where I am, this morning we were awakened by bombings.

03:06A missile crashed not far from the city market.

03:11Here, the bombings near the front line are daily.

03:14The city of Liman, where I also went these last days, is targeted on a daily basis.

03:19To give you an idea, when you take the car to go from one city to another,

03:23you see columns of black smoke, which are the result of these strikes.

03:28And then, in the Pokrovsk sector, about an hour's drive from where I am,

03:32the fighting is still extremely intense.

03:35The Ukrainian forces are really under pressure, and the Russian troops continue to advance.

03:40They advance because they are really in excess,

03:44and they are over-equipped compared to the Ukrainian forces.

03:48And in front of these advancements, thousands of Ukrainian civilians flee,

03:53who are evacuated. There are still many children, families.

03:57I was able to speak to some of them.

03:59For them, it was simply between them.

04:01For these families, it was simply no longer possible to stay

04:04between the bombings and the threat of a Russian occupation that is approaching.

04:09Thank you very much for all these details.

04:11Emmanuelle Chaz, live from Kramatorsk.
