Very [00:02:31] good. Our army today launched new strikes on [00:02:35] Ukrainian rear areas. Explosions in Sumy, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, and [00:02:39] Odesa regions, where military and industrial [00:02:42] infrastructure became targets. And at the same time, in the Black Sea, two more [00:02:46] dry cargo ships with weapons were hit. And in Pokrov, [00:02:49] Dnipropetrovsk region, the Bogdanivska power substation was liquidated, [00:02:53] which, among other things, ensured the movement of trains for supplying [00:02:56] the Ukrainian army. Today, a key [00:03:00] transit point for transferring reserves from the central western [00:03:03] regions of the country was put out of action, reactive gerani hit the railway station [00:03:07] Lazova, this is in the Kharkiv region, in the Kherson [00:03:11] region, the warehouses of one of the enterprises, where [00:03:14] military [00:03:15] equipment was located, ceased to exist. [00:03:20] In the near destruction zone, front-line aviation operates effectively, at [00:03:24] dawn, a Mi-28 helicopter of the Southern group destroyed [00:03:27] a camouflaged command post. [00:03:33] Exactly 2 years ago, Ukrainian militants invaded the Kursk [00:03:36] region. [00:03:42] At noon, in all churches of the region, bell ringing sounded simultaneously. [00:03:46] In Kursk, on the anniversary of the tragic events, a memorial [00:03:50] rally was held, flowers were laid. And on Victory Avenue [00:03:53] today, a stone was laid, which will become the foundation of a future [00:03:56] memorial, to the heroes who saved civilians [00:04:00] from aggression in the Armed Forces. The enemy was driven from our [00:04:03] land, but Ukrainian nationalists continue to inflict terrorist attacks on [00:04:06] civilians in the Kursk region now. As [00:04:10] reported by Governor Alexander Khinshtein, two [00:04:13] people died and 11 were injured in the region as a result of enemy [00:04:16] drone attacks during the day. From Kursk, [00:04:20] Elizaveta Bukreeva. [00:04:23] Anti-drone corridors lead to Sudzha. Today, the wounded [00:04:27] city is a place to collect evidence of atrocities. The Kursk [00:04:41] region, the enemy spared no one, cut off evacuation routes and opened [00:04:44] fire on cars, with old people, women, [00:04:48] and children in the crosshairs, there was a child, look, yes, you can [00:04:51] see children's slippers, and this [00:04:54] woman, he's down there, the day the family tried to leave [00:04:57] Sudzha, forever in Artyom's memory. [00:05:13] one here in the shoulder, now Artyom [00:05:15] and Matvey are in Kursk, they bought an apartment with a certificate, the baby goes to [00:05:19] kindergarten and often remembers his mother, misses her, they often [00:05:22] visit her at the cemetery, on the monument, the date that divided [00:05:26] the lives of hundreds of thousands of people into before and [00:05:37] liberate the border area, the northern fighters threw all their strength into it, [00:05:40] the supply was very fast, that is... [00:05:42] weapons, equipment were given directly to the personnel, that is, everything was [00:05:46] so quickly planned, [00:05:49] to stop the enemy. The whole country mobilized [00:05:52] forces, thousands of tons of aid arrived in the region, [00:05:56] volunteers from different regions came, the People's Front [00:05:59] deployed a humanitarian headquarters, day and night, concerned [00:06:03] people were on duty at temporary accommodation points, worked in [00:06:06] warehouses, [00:06:09] our soldiers one after another liberated [00:06:12] settlements, the final turning point in the battles was the stream. [00:06:16] Russian assault troops, in full ammunition and equipment, went behind the lines [00:06:20] of the Armed Forces of Ukraine via a gas pipeline. Our military correspondent Alexander Sladkov was [00:06:23] a witness to the legendary [00:06:34] were exposed to enormous technological danger [00:06:37] and could be poisoned by gas and die even in [00:06:40] the first steps underground. Listen, well, you can already [00:06:43] imagine what the enemy will feel when you suddenly [00:06:47] jump out, well, of course, of course, it's a [00:06:50] joy for us that we are not going over the top, we are going over [00:06:53] the ground. Militants fled from Sudzha, and then from Gornal, [00:06:57] a small village right near the border, on April 26, [00:07:00] 2025, over the commanding height [00:07:04] a Russian [00:07:05] flag was raised. [00:07:10] Residents of the Kursk region are being evacuated. During the occupation, they are returning [00:07:14] home to Sumy, 170 people have already [00:07:16] reunited with their families, smiles and tears of joy at the meeting, [00:07:20] the result of large-scale work. The fate of about [00:07:23] 300 residents of the Kursk region still remains [00:07:27] unknown, we continue to use all possible [00:07:30] humanitarian mechanisms to determine the fate [00:07:34] of each person. The crimes of the Kyiv regime do not go [00:07:37] unpunished, the lion's share under the article on terrorism. At [00:07:41] the moment, the investigation of more than 300 criminal cases has been completed, [00:07:45] court sentences have been handed down against 280 [00:07:48] militants. Work also continues with civilians returned [00:07:52] from previously captured settlements. Their testimonies [00:07:56] are carefully analyzed with the aim of identifying previously unknown [00:07:59] facts about the illegal actions of Ukrainian servicemen. [00:08:03] Neo-Nazis shelled the homes of civilians, artillery, tanks [00:08:06] of the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit shops, kindergartens, hospitals. Militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to level [00:08:10] the local school. [00:09:16] An indispensable role in the liberation of the Kursk border area was also played by [00:09:19] the armed forces of the DPRK. At the initiative [00:09:22] of the supreme leader of the state Kim Jong Un, units [00:09:25] of the Korean People's Army were transferred to the Russian region, where they showed [00:09:29] courage, bravery, and [00:09:30] heroism. [00:09:34] Combat coordination and modern combat tactics of the DPRK special operations forces [00:09:38] were honed to perfection. [00:09:45] On the helmets of the assault troops are St. George ribbons, an unchanging [00:09:49] symbol of military glory, memory, and victory over [00:09:52] the Nazis. Against modern Nazis, they are ready to fight [00:09:56] now. [00:10:02] Russian commanders, who have invaluable experience [00:10:05] in combat work, including in the Kursk region, acted as instructors [00:10:09] and mentors for Korean soldiers. They shared the most important [00:10:12] skills in weapons, taking into account the daily changing realities [00:10:16] in the special military operation zone. Their fighters are no worse than ours, the enemy runs first, [00:10:19] the enemy runs because they are afraid of small arms combat. And we will [00:10:23] not yield to anyone in small arms combat, they taught literally everything: [00:10:27] movement in small groups, fire cover, countering [00:10:30] enemy UAVs, providing first aid in case [00:10:34] of injuries. Ukrainian militants preferred to simply [00:10:37] run away from Korean military personnel. On the battlefield, [00:10:40] DPRK special forces were preparing to use, among other things, weapons [00:10:44] of Russian production, Kalashnikov assault rifles of various [00:10:47] modifications, sniper rifles, [00:10:50] hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers. [00:10:53] гранатомты. [00:11:55] April 26 is a special date in the DPRK. Exactly one [00:11:59] year after Ukrainian Nazis were finally [00:12:02] driven from Russian soil, in Pyongyang, a memorial [00:12:05] complex "Warrior Liberator" was opened. A sculpture [00:12:08] where Russian and Korean soldiers stand together shoulder to shoulder. Moscow was [00:12:12] represented at the ceremony by the Speaker of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin [00:12:16] and the head of the Ministry of Defense Andrey [00:12:18] Belousov. [00:12:21] That the DPRK will always be on Russia's side in the fight against. [00:13:29] Russia is actively participating in the development of Kyrgyzstan's [00:13:33] energy infrastructure and the creation of new generation [00:13:36] facilities. This year, we plan to commission [00:13:39] a solar power plant with a capacity of [00:13:42] 300 megawatts in the east of the country. [00:13:46] Preparations are underway to build a modern wind [00:13:49] power plant in the same region. [00:13:53] Russia and Kyrgyzstan are closely cooperating in the humanitarian [00:13:56] sphere, we continue the construction of nine schools in Kyrgyzstan with [00:14:00] instruction in Russian, and also the campus of the Slavic [00:14:03] University in Bishkek. In general, Russia and [00:14:06] Kyrgyzstan have the widest prospects for mutually beneficial [00:14:10] cooperation. And I am convinced that acting [00:14:14] further together in a partnership, Russian and Kyrgyz business [00:14:17] circles and regions will continue to [00:14:20] contribute comprehensively to ensuring the economic growth of our countries [00:14:24] and the social well-being of our [00:14:27] Competitions, festivals and demonstration trainings from Paralympians. Across [00:14:31] the country, a week of inclusive sports is being held, which is [00:14:34] organized by United Russia. In Moscow, the marathon venues are open to [00:14:38] athletes who professionally and amateurishly engage [00:14:41] in adaptive sports, as well as veterans of the special operation and their [00:14:45] families. And today they submitted their proposals to the party's national program on [00:14:49] how to make physical education accessible. [00:14:51] Sport is accessible to everyone. [00:14:55] stage, well, our task is to support initiatives, [00:15:09] support including on the world directions [00:15:13] to create an accessible environment for [00:15:15] everyone and to come to sports with new [00:15:19] with new inspiration, with new strength. [00:15:23] Well, next in the news are footage of the tragedy in the center of Omsk, a car there [00:15:27] rammed people right on the pedestrian crossing and a sharp [00:15:30] change in weather in Moscow, so what to expect, I'll be back in a couple of minutes and tell [00:20:54] On air news, we continue our broadcast: a terrible accident in the very [00:20:57] center of Omsk, a passenger car at high speed flew onto a safety island [00:21:01] right into a crowd of pedestrians, we immediately warn, [00:21:04] very graphic footage. This is the [00:21:07] moment of the accident, it was captured by CCTV cameras. Without slowing [00:21:11] down, the car first takes down a traffic light and hits [00:21:14] people. Preliminary, the driver felt unwell at [00:21:17] the wheel while driving. [00:22:04] He met with residents and discussed the future of the health resort on [00:22:07] the Volga. A modern medical base will be created here, with [00:22:10] plans to train specialists for medical institutions, [00:22:13] sanatoriums and other spheres. Report by Dmitry [00:22:16] Kaistra. Spread out on the right bank. [00:22:20] The majestic Volga, the city of Khvalynsk, where the endless Volga [00:22:23] spills meet breathtaking sunrises every day, painting [00:22:27] the chalk mountains in shades of molten gold, opens [00:22:31] up new opportunities for tourism, health and recreation. [00:22:34] The Speaker of the State Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, came to [00:22:49] hospital? Its own institution [00:22:53] training young specialists, that's right. [00:22:56] Khvalynsk is the pearl of the Saratov land. 4 years ago, it [00:23:00] officially received the status of a resort town, a unique [00:23:03] microclimate, chalk mountains, coniferous forests and 300 purest [00:23:06] springs, the water in each has its own taste and composition, together [00:23:10] with healing mud, it creates conditions for the development [00:23:13] of balneology, the resort needs modern medicine on [00:23:17] the initiative of Vyacheslav Volodin in Khvalynsk. [00:24:29] The city has potential, here is unique [00:24:32] nature, which allows [00:24:35] people to recover, we need to primarily solve [00:24:38] issues of quality healthcare, this is [00:24:41] the creation of a city district central hospital, [00:24:45] and then the opening of a department in the college for [00:24:48] training nurses and paramedics, further [00:24:52] we will train personnel for sanatoriums and [00:24:55] resorts in other areas, this will create a good foundation, [00:24:59] from such small towns, villages, [00:25:02] districts, Russia begins, and Russia is [00:25:06] a region, this is the development of our country. The apple [00:25:10] capital of the Volga region - this city began as a guard post, and [00:25:14] later, by decree of Peter I, as a fortress. But why [00:25:17] is it still Khvalynsk? Well, here everything is simple: the Volga, on [00:25:21] which the city stands, flows into the Caspian Sea, previously [00:25:24] the Khvalynsk Sea, hence the name. In Khvalynsk, [00:25:28] they carefully preserve the memory of the native of these places, the artist Kuzma [00:25:32] Petrov-Vodkin, inspired by the stunning landscapes where [00:25:36] the Volga spreads up to 7 km, and its waters blaze [00:25:39] in the flashes of the setting sun. Petrov-Vodkin created his [00:25:43] famous masterpiece here, "Bathing the Red Horse". The name [00:25:46] of the painter is borne by the local museum and art gallery, which [00:25:50] were restored with the support of the chairman of the State [00:25:53] Duma. Unlike many officials, he was a frequent [00:25:56] guest, always of our art museum, he [00:26:00] was here more than once. He brought his friends here, [00:26:04] and this building, it's an old building, it's [00:26:07] a building built in the middle of the 19th century, it never saw [00:26:11] repairs, finally in 2017 this [00:26:14] building was restored, the gallery's collection contains masterpieces by masters and [00:26:18] works by contemporary authors from all over Russia, participants of the annual [00:26:21] Khvalynsk Etudes festival. The spiritual pearl [00:26:24] of these places is the Ioannovsky women's monastery, a quiet abode on [00:26:28] the bank of the Volga, where pilgrims from all over [00:26:31] Russia gather. [00:26:41] in the chalk cliffs, where for 20 years in harsh asceticism, the elder Seraphim lived and healed people with local herbs. The Monk's Cave Sanatorium [00:26:45] was restored with the support of Vyacheslav Volodin at [00:26:48] the very foot of the national park, where relict plants, [00:26:52] untouched by the glacier, and nearby on picturesque mountains, the Khvalyn [00:26:56] ski resort spread out, a tourist complex with slopes, [00:27:00] hotels, thermal pools with...
