[00:00:20] Good afternoon, N1 info begins, I am Tanja Veselinović, these are the most important [00:00:23] news, [00:00:28] director Stevan Filipović before... beaten in the center of Belgrade claims that [00:00:32] he was attacked by mercenaries of the ruling party. [00:00:34] The prosecution launched an [00:00:36] investigation. [00:00:39] The peak of the heatwave in Serbia, fires in several [00:00:42] locations. Burning in Ibarska gorge in Deliblatska [00:00:46] Peščara. Due to the fire at the landfill in Bačka Palanka, [00:00:49] an emergency [00:00:50] situation has been declared. [00:00:54] Due to drought, electricity saving measures in Romania and [00:00:57] Hungary, Romania declared a state of emergency, [00:01:00] the Slovenian nuclear power plant reduced [00:01:02] production. [00:01:08] Director Stevan Filipović was attacked last night in the center of Belgrade [00:01:11] at the corner of Makedonska and Nušićeva, as he states, he [00:01:15] was physically attacked by five people who knocked him to [00:01:18] the floor, kicked him with their feet and chairs, hit him on the head and [00:01:22] stole his mobile phone. [00:01:25] A group of supporters, members, [00:01:28] mercenaries, of the government. The party [00:01:31] has for the hundredth time, or I don't know how many times, [00:01:34] demolished a protected building, a cultural and historical [00:01:37] monument at the corner of Makedonska and [00:01:40] Nušićeva. I photographed some of [00:01:43] them, uh, after a few [00:01:45] minutes, a guy weighing 100 kg [00:01:49] in a grey shirt attacked me, took my mobile [00:01:53] phone. I tried to take my mobile phone, then five of them came, and in front [00:01:56] of cameras and 15 [00:01:59] people, how many of us were in line in front of [00:02:02] Halo Leskovac in Makedonska street, they [00:02:05] knocked me to the floor, then they started kicking me, then they took [00:02:09] a metal chair where people were sitting and started hitting me with that [00:02:13] chair, I lost consciousness, came [00:02:16] to, uh, people who were standing under, in front, [00:02:20] helped me, gave me a phone to record, uh, [00:02:24] well, I have a bruise on my leg, I have [00:02:28] a hematoma on my hip and... Concussion. [00:02:30] The First Basic Public Prosecutor's Office in [00:02:34] Belgrade launched an investigation into the attack on Filipović, [00:02:37] as announced for NovarS, the duty public prosecutor of the First [00:02:41] Basic Public Prosecutor's Office was informed during the night [00:02:44] about the event, after which all necessary actions were ordered [00:02:47] to be taken in order to clarify [00:02:50] the case. [00:02:54] Reacting to the beating of professor and director Stevan [00:02:57] Filipović, the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić stated that he [00:03:01] followed his, I quote, conflicts with other [00:03:04] blockaders, that he condemns violence and hopes that the [00:03:08] perpetrators will be caught and [00:03:09] punished. [00:03:12] Unfortunately, I have to tell the citizens, I would never answer in the hall, but [00:03:15] I want the citizens to notice something. You [00:03:18] never asked anyone who [00:03:22] called for violence, if they were [00:03:25] production. The level of the Danube is at sorry? And as you saw, you got a very clear [00:03:28] answer from me, a clear and... precise condemning. You never even [00:03:32] asked yourselves, nor did we hear from you, nor from those [00:03:36] you incited and instigated to unrest and disorder from Valjevo [00:03:40] to Belgrade, to say you are sorry for the seriously wounded man [00:03:43] in front of the National Assembly, shot twice, [00:03:46] Mr. Bogdanović, which is of course a much more serious [00:03:49] case, but that is the difference between [00:03:53] me, not only as the president of the republic, but [00:03:56] someone who must care for all citizens and those... who [00:04:00] would push Serbia into fratricidal conflicts, [00:04:02] therefore, yes, I strongly condemn all kinds of [00:04:06] violence and I hope that the perpetrators will be found and [00:04:10] adequately punished. [00:04:12] The attack on director Stevan Filipović was condemned by some [00:04:16] opposition parties and they demanded immediate prosecution of [00:04:19] the attackers. The Party of Freedom and Justice assesses that the attack on [00:04:22] Filipović represents another confirmation that violence in Serbia [00:04:26] has spiraled out of control and that society is entering a very dangerous [00:04:30] period. The League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina strongly condemns, as they [00:04:34] state, the fascist attack. The Movement of Free [00:04:37] Citizens states that the attack on Filipović is an attack on [00:04:40] all free-thinking people, while the Democratic Party [00:04:43] assesses that such an attack is an expected consequence of Aleksandar Vučić's [00:04:47] political system in which dissenters are [00:04:51] declared enemies. The Green-Left Front states that the [00:04:54] seriousness of Filipović's injuries indicates that the perpetrators [00:04:58] had no fear of consequences, stating that [00:05:02] inaction in this case will clearly answer [00:05:05] whether the police in Belgrade work for criminals. The attack on [00:05:08] Filipović was condemned by many other organizations and associations. [00:05:16] The peak of the heatwave in Serbia is marked by fires in several locations [00:05:20] in the country. It is burning in the area from Maglič towards Ušće, [00:05:24] Ibarska Gorge, in Deliblatska Peščara, a fire [00:05:28] at the landfill in Bačka Palanka. N1 teams are [00:05:31] at the crisis spots, and the situation in Deliblatska Peščara [00:05:35] was checked by our reporter Jelena Mirković. [00:05:39] The fire that broke out yesterday afternoon in Deliblatska [00:05:42] Peščara and engulfed 300 hectares of forest, has not yet been [00:05:46] localized. The situation on the ground is unknown, as [00:05:49] the police, for security reasons, do not allow anyone involved [00:05:53] in extinguishing the fire further passage from the entrance to [00:05:57] the Čardak educational center. The Ministry of Internal Affairs told [00:06:01] N1 that members of the helicopter unit are participating in [00:06:04] extinguishing the fire and that the MUP has engaged three [00:06:07] helicopters. What we observed on the ground is that the [00:06:11] helicopters are supplied with water from Lake Kraljevac, which [00:06:14] in a way facilitates their work, as we were unofficially told, considering [00:06:18] that the lake is close to the area affected by [00:06:21] the fire. More than 30 firefighters are on the ground, as well as [00:06:25] 80 members of the Sector for Emergency Situations. [00:06:28] Heavy machinery has been engaged to stop [00:06:32] the spread of the fire. For now, it is not known when the fire will be [00:06:35] localized, given that the temperature today is very [00:06:39] high. This is not the first fire that has... engulfed the Deliblatska [00:06:43] Peščara this summer, a similar situation occurred at the end of July, [00:06:46] at that time the fire engulfed somewhat fewer [00:06:49] hectares, as it was then said, about 20 hectares were [00:06:53] on fire, and it took the authorities five days to localize [00:06:57] the fire, Jelena Mirković N1 Deliblatska [00:07:00] Peščara. The large fire that broke out in several places in [00:07:04] the Ibar Gorge on Wednesday, in the area from the town of Ušće to [00:07:07] Maglić, has not yet [00:07:10] been extinguished. In addition to low vegetation, the fire also engulfed the pine [00:07:14] forest, and extinguishing is further hampered by the inaccessibility [00:07:17] of the terrain, reports N1 reporter, Nenad [00:07:20] Božević. It is the second day since the fires broke out [00:07:24] in the Ibar Valley, the most intense [00:07:28] are around the town of Ušće, and about [00:07:30] twenty kilometers downstream along the Ibar. Mostly the [00:07:34] right bank of the Ibar is burning, after [00:07:37] low vegetation, which was first [00:07:41] affected, now the fire has spread to coniferous [00:07:44] forests. Many firefighters are on the ground, [00:07:48] workers of Serbia Forest are trying to create a perimeter to [00:07:51] stop the spread of the fire, however, during the night [00:07:54] the wind caused big problems. What [00:07:57] no one knows at this moment [00:08:01] is what could be the cause, of course, high [00:08:04] temperatures are what additionally [00:08:07] influenced the fire to spread, but [00:08:10] people who live in... this part, next to [00:08:14] the railway where the fire first appeared, say that one [00:08:18] of the causes could be a train because they say [00:08:20] they noticed that it was sparking at the moment it was moving [00:08:24] towards Ušće, as it came out of this [00:08:28] tunnel, it was carrying flames from the military settlement in [00:08:31] Kraljevo, all of it was burning down to Ušće, yesterday when [00:08:35] they told me that the Ibar valley was burning, I got in the car and drove [00:08:39] down about 12-13 km along the Ibar, everywhere I saw about... ten [00:08:43] fires from the other side, meaning the Ibar, above the railway, when you get to [00:08:46] a small hill, you could see the entire valley down to Maglič, for 30 [00:08:50] 40 km everything was smoky and everything was on fire, what was burning down there [00:08:53] yesterday was low vegetation, rocky [00:08:57] it was, but here, you see, it's thick grass, thick forest, these [00:09:00] were once young people who planted trees, so it's all [00:09:04] young forest and here it can very easily ignite and go [00:09:08] down and burn the entire Žaracka mountain, so [00:09:11] here it's up to the firefighters to localize this as soon as possible, if [00:09:15] they can, otherwise it used to happen [00:09:18] that fires appeared in the Ibar [00:09:21] Valley, sometimes the area where [00:09:25] coniferous forests were burning was much larger, [00:09:29] whether the firefighters will succeed in [00:09:32] reducing it now, that is still uncertain, because [00:09:36] the weather forecasts are not helping as rain is not expected in this part [00:09:39] of Serbia, they say that the next at least five or six [00:09:43] days will be warm with temperatures ranging between [00:09:47] 33 and 35 degrees and this will further [00:09:50] hinder the extinguishing and localization of fires. [00:09:54] Nenad Božević, N1, [00:09:56] Ušće. [00:09:58] Fires in the Knjaževac and Zaječar area were localized [00:10:02] after about 200 hectares of forest and low [00:10:05] vegetation burned, Radio Television of Serbia reported today. Although [00:10:09] the fires have been brought under control, firefighting teams are still [00:10:12] on duty in the field due to the possibility of renewed fires [00:10:16] due to high temperatures and increased [00:10:19] wind. [00:10:22] An emergency situation has been declared in Bačka Palanka due to a fire [00:10:26] at the landfill that has been burning since the night between Tuesday and [00:10:29] Wednesday. Citizens are advised to minimize their outdoor [00:10:33] activities, keep windows and doors closed, ventilate rooms only [00:10:37] after the smoke disperses and avoid physical [00:10:40] activities outdoors, this especially applies to [00:10:44] people with respiratory problems. And what the current [00:10:47] situation at the landfill is, our Ina [00:10:50] Džakula knows. At the city landfill in Bačka Palanka for [00:10:53] the third time this year. And two days ago, a fire broke out which [00:10:57] has not yet been extinguished. The fire broke out [00:11:00] on the night between Tuesday and Wednesday at around 1:30 [00:11:03] AM on the left side of the city landfill on the road to Novi [00:11:07] Sad. Thick smoke yesterday covered the city, while firefighters [00:11:10] and communal services were trying to localize the fire, which, according to [00:11:14] the municipality, flared up due to unfavorable weather [00:11:17] conditions. We as citizens are really, really [00:11:20] extremely concerned about this situation, because this is not the first [00:11:24] time. that this has happened, so already in [00:11:27] May we had a problem with the burning landfill when, [00:11:31] as on this occasion, an emergency situation was declared in the municipality [00:11:34] of Bačka Palanka, however, the municipal emergency [00:11:37] headquarters did not issue any protective measures or [00:11:41] recommendations to citizens regarding this [00:11:44] situation, also uh we don't know the opinion of uh [00:11:48] the Institute for Public Health of Vojvodina, so we don't have [00:11:51] any uh uh we don't have any uh... [00:11:55] air quality measurements at the moment, this is the [00:11:59] third fire at the same landfill this year, the previous one was extinguished [00:12:02] for more than a week, so citizens are asking whether the problem is only [00:12:06] temporarily remedied instead of being permanently resolved. The provincial government [00:12:10] already in May allocated 44.2 million [00:12:13] dinars for urgent fire remediation. We as citizens have [00:12:16] the right to know at all times what our air is like, what our water is like, what our [00:12:20] soil is like? However, the municipality is not doing much about [00:12:23] it, there are no programs actually concerning [00:12:27] environmental protection, even the environmental protection reports are questionable, [00:12:30] or at least we don't have access to them, while machines are currently [00:12:34] working on fire remediation, the recommendation for citizens, [00:12:37] especially pregnant women, children, elderly people, [00:12:41] as well as people suffering from chronic diseases, is to [00:12:44] minimize outdoor activities. Ina [00:12:48] Džakula, N1, Bačka Palanka. The fire [00:12:51] near Leskovac has been extinguished, but firefighters are still [00:12:55] on duty in the area of Atar, the village of Razgojna, halfway [00:12:58] to Niš, where it also burned last year, [00:13:01] reports Milan Stojanović. [00:13:04] Dramatic images that arrived yesterday afternoon [00:13:08] from the vicinity of Leskovac, more precisely from the area [00:13:11] of the village of Razgojina, today [00:13:15] are replaced by other dramatic images, but certainly also better [00:13:19] news, because the fire has been extinguished, and what remains [00:13:22] is burnt, low vegetation. "in the pine [00:13:25] forest and around the pine forest in this hilly [00:13:29] area of the Leskovac basin. What [00:13:32] can be seen from this point are also the first [00:13:35] houses located about a kilometer from here in [00:13:39] the settlement itself that were not affected [00:13:43] by the fire, firefighters are still on duty in [00:13:46] this area, by the way, in extinguishing the fire, volunteer [00:13:50] fire departments participated, and [00:13:52] locals helped [00:13:56] themselves, by the way, this place is located [00:14:00] about halfway from Niš to [00:14:02] Leskovac, near here it [00:14:05] burned last summer when there was that heatwave [00:14:09] during July towards the village of [00:14:13] Babičko, this time, according to unofficial [00:14:16] information, the situation was [00:14:19] somewhat better, that is, the fire that was last [00:14:23] year near this... place was [00:14:26] larger. Milan Stojanović, N1, [00:14:28] Leskovac. The Emergency Situations Headquarters of the city [00:14:32] of Valjevo today declared a state of emergency in 16 [00:14:36] populated areas due to a lack of drinking water. [00:14:39] As announced, the state of emergency was introduced to enable [00:14:43] the organized supply of drinking water, as well as water for agricultural [00:14:46] and sanitary needs of the population in affected areas. [00:14:50] The City Headquarters ordered the city administration of Valjevo, in accordance with [00:14:54] its capabilities, to procure additional water canisters [00:14:57] to increase capacity for water distribution to [00:15:01] the affected population. [00:15:03] stanovništvu. [00:15:08] We move on to other news. The dismissed chief of the Belgrade police, [00:15:11] Veselin Milić, filed a criminal complaint in which he accused [00:15:14] the heads of the criminal police administration of, as [00:15:18] the weekly Radar writes, framing him in a murder case in [00:15:21] Senjak. Radar states that Milić, through his lawyers, [00:15:25] filed the complaint with the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade, which [00:15:28] had previously indicted him, claiming that the head of the UKP, Marko [00:15:32] Kričak, and the head of the service for suppressing crime, Boš. [00:15:35] Sekulović, falsified evidence and pressured [00:15:39] witnesses and suspects to [00:15:42] adapt facts to a pre-formed narrative of [00:15:45] events. In the complaint, Milić states that the prosecutor's office [00:15:49] rejected the most important parts of the criminal complaint filed [00:15:52] against him by Kričak and Sekulović. According to [00:15:55] Radar, Milić accuses these two of abuse [00:15:59] of official position, claiming that the collected evidence against [00:16:03] him was presented selectively, incompletely, [00:16:06] and untruthfully. Let's remember that the complaint against Milić stated [00:16:09] that he was present at Nešović's murder on May [00:16:13] 12th in restaurant 27 and that he [00:16:16] is charged with aiding the perpetrators after the [00:16:19] crime was committed, removing evidence, and not reporting [00:16:23] the crime. However, the VJT assessed that the evidence, [00:16:26] primarily surveillance camera footage, indicates that Milić was not [00:16:30] in the restaurant at the time of the murder. [00:16:33] ubistva. [00:16:36] A public opinion survey by the International Republican [00:16:40] Institute shows that 49% of respondents [00:16:43] believe that Serbia is not going in the right direction, while [00:16:46] 41% believe the opposite. Such results are [00:16:50] expected and can be translated into election results, says [00:16:53] Nuns President Željko [00:16:55] Bodrožić. [00:16:58] What is visible to the naked eye is that Serbia is deeply [00:17:01] divided, that this is the result of this government which has [00:17:05] done everything to divide it in such a way, [00:17:09] infuriate both sides, and so [00:17:12] that is something that is expected, although I [00:17:15] think that the percentages on this side will be increasingly [00:17:19] higher dissatisfaction [00:17:21] of that, so to speak, the base of votes for that [00:17:25] student list, I believe it will be even higher once [00:17:28] those elections are [00:17:30] called. [00:17:35] The constitutive session of the assembly of Kosovo, which began this morning, [00:17:39] was interrupted, at the moment when the leader of Self-Determination, Albin [00:17:43] Kurti, instead of proposing a candidate from his party for the president of [00:17:46] the parliament, requested additional time to reach an agreement [00:17:50] on the election of the president of Kosovo, even though that topic was not on [00:17:54] the agenda. Previously, the mandates of 120 [00:17:58] deputies who took the oath were confirmed. Let's remember, at [00:18:01] the last elections, the Self-Determination movement won [00:18:05] 58 parliamentary mandates and together with [00:18:08] the parties of non-majority communities, it has enough [00:18:11] votes to constitute the assembly and form a new [00:18:14] government, for which a simple majority of 61 [00:18:18] votes in parliament is needed, however, for the election of the president of Kosovo, [00:18:22] a two-thirds majority is needed in [00:18:24] the assembly. [00:18:32] Bucharest and Budapest have reduced street and completely turned off [00:18:36] decorative lighting. In an attempt to save electricity, which is not available in [00:18:40] sufficient quantities due to the low water level of the Danube and a period of [00:18:44] extreme temperatures and drought. Romania has declared a state of [00:18:47] emergency, nuclear power plants in Hungary and [00:18:51] Romania are operating at reduced capacity because water from [00:18:55] the Danube is used to cool the reactors, and the Slovenian nuclear power plant [00:18:58] in Krško has also reduced [00:19:02] a historic low in Romania, it is three times [00:19:05] lower than the usual August [00:19:08] average. [00:19:11] The Ukrainian army hit two Russian refineries, one in [00:19:15] Yaroslavl and the other in Bashkiria, Ukrainian President [00:19:18] Volodymyr Zelensky announced. The attack on [00:19:21] the refinery in Yaroslavl, which is located 250 km [00:19:25] northeast of Moscow, was confirmed by the local [00:19:28] governor. Mikhail Yevrayev announced that all [00:19:32] Ukrainian drones were shot down, and that the fire [00:19:35] at the refinery was caused by falling drone debris. He [00:19:38] also announced that four people were injured. The Russian [00:19:42] army attacked a grain ship near Odesa, killing [00:19:46] one person. Three people died in an attack on [00:19:49] the city of Balakliya, two when the Russian army [00:19:53] hit a railway station in [00:19:55] Kharkiv. Japan today commemorates [00:19:59] the 81st anniversary of the American nuclear attack on [00:20:02] Hiroshima, which was the first such attack in the history of [00:20:05] mankind. Around 50 participants from [00:20:08] 123 countries and regions, including [00:20:11] survivors, paid tribute with a minute of silence [00:20:14] in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. The peace bell [00:20:17] rang at 8:15 AM local time, [00:20:20] at the moment when the bomb was dropped. In the first [00:20:24] six months alone after the bomb was dropped, 140,000 [00:20:27] people died from the explosion and radiation. The bomb, [00:20:31] weighing about 4 tons, killed everyone within [00:20:34] a 500-meter radius and destroyed 90% [00:20:38] of the city. About 45 minutes after the [00:20:40] explosion, a black rain of radioactive particles began [00:20:43] to fall. Three days after the bombing [00:20:47] of Hiroshima, the US dropped an atomic bomb [00:20:50] on Nagasaki, where about 74,000 people [00:20:53] died. [00:21:01] Next, a review of sports [00:21:03] news. [00:27:33] The cult television show Kvadratura Kruga by Branko [00:27:36] Stanković will be broadcast on N1 television from autumn [00:27:40] onwards. The show has so far won more than 60 [00:27:43] domestic and international awards, including [00:27:47] 10 Grand Prizes, six gold and eight silver [00:27:50] plaques, as well as the Milan Pantić award for courageous [00:27:53] and professional journalistic work. Author Branko [00:27:57] Stanković says that the concept of Kvadratura Kruga [00:28:00] remains the same and that man is still in the foreground [00:28:03] as the measure of all things.
