[00:00:57] on the Russia Vest channel, in the studio. Hello and the main thing for this
[00:01:01] hour.
[00:01:05] A parking lot for trucks carrying cargo for the Ukrainian army is on fire,
[00:01:09] a railway station where the personnel of
[00:01:12] the Armed Forces of Ukraine were located. We continue to accurately strike at the rear areas
[00:01:15] of the country.
[00:01:21] The second anniversary of the invasion of the Kyiv terrorists into the Kursk region, how
[00:01:25] the enemy was driven out, new details about the "Stream" operation from
[00:01:28] its participant and footage of battles with the participation of brothers
[00:01:32] in arms from the Korean army.
[00:01:35] Commotion in German Leipzig, a mysterious drone was found near a Ukrainian plane loaded with
[00:01:38] weapons, how
[00:01:40] it was neutralized. We are waiting for a report from Omsk, where
[00:01:44] a driver hit seven people at a pedestrian crossing. What is
[00:01:48] known?
[00:01:50] And amazing stories from the USA, where a family gang of gangsters
[00:01:54] was led by a mother, the
[00:01:56] police chief.
[00:02:06] In the Kherson region, Russian military attacked warehouses and
[00:02:09] logistics complexes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This footage shows
[00:02:12] a fire in the warehouses of the Woodstock enterprise, where
[00:02:16] militants' property was stored, and another Geran group attacked the railway
[00:02:20] station Lazovaya in the Kharkiv region. Militants
[00:02:23] used it to reload personnel. In
[00:02:26] the Dnepropetrovsk region, a logistics warehouse burned down. Residents
[00:02:30] of Valadar share footage of thick and black smoke over
[00:02:33] the city, and there, Russian geraniums destroyed a parking lot with
[00:02:36] trucks in the city's industrial zone. Heavy trucks
[00:02:39] were used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for covert transportation of long-range
[00:02:43] drones, as well as reconnaissance drones and all
[00:02:46] their components. In this territory of the Zaporizhzhia region, where
[00:02:50] militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are still operating, our drones
[00:02:53] burned down another gas station to deprive the enemy of the opportunity to
[00:02:57] refuel their military equipment.
[00:03:01] Exactly 2 years ago, Ukrainian terrorists
[00:03:04] invaded the Kursk
[00:03:05] region.
[00:03:10] At noon today, in all churches of the region, the
[00:03:14] church bells rang simultaneously. In Kursk itself, on the anniversary
[00:03:17] of the tragic events, a commemorative rally with the laying of
[00:03:20] flowers was held. And on Pobedy Avenue today, a stone was laid, which will form
[00:03:24] the foundation of a future memorial to the heroes
[00:03:27] who saved civilians from aggression.
[00:03:30] The enemy was driven from our land, but Ukrainian nationalists continue
[00:03:34] to launch terrorist attacks on civilians in the Kursk border area and the entire Kursk
[00:03:38] region even now. As Governor Alexander
[00:03:41] Khinshtein reported, only in the past 24 hours, two people died and
[00:03:45] 11 were injured as a result of enemy
[00:03:49] drone attacks in the region. From Kursk, a report by Elizaveta. Anti-drone
[00:03:52] corridors lead to Sudzha. Today, the wounded city is a place
[00:03:56] for collecting evidence of neo-Nazi atrocities. Almost
[00:03:59] the entire road was
[00:04:02] strewn with burnt civilian cars. On August
[00:04:05] 6, 2024, militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine invaded the Kursk
[00:04:09] region. The enemy spared no one, cut off evacuation routes and opened
[00:04:13] fire on cars. In the crosshairs were old people, women, and
[00:04:16] children. Well, there was a child, look, yes, you can
[00:04:19] see children's slippers. Yes, and this
[00:04:22] woman. The day when the family tried to leave
[00:04:26] Sudzha is forever in the memory of Artyom Kuznetsov. A burst of automatic fire
[00:04:30] riddled the car of his pregnant wife, Nina died before
[00:04:34] reaching the hospital, her son received shrapnel
[00:04:36] wounds, one here, three here,
[00:04:40] one here in the shoulder. Now Artyom
[00:04:44] and Matvey are in Kursk, they bought an apartment with a certificate,
[00:04:47] the baby goes to kindergarten and often remembers his mother, he misses her,
[00:04:50] they often visit her at the cemetery, on the monument, the date that divided
[00:04:54] the lives of hundreds of thousands of people
[00:04:57] into before and after.
[00:05:00] The atrocities of the SSU became an additional
[00:05:04] motivation to liberate the border area as quickly as possible. The northern fighters threw all their
[00:05:07] forces into it, the supply was very fast, that is,
[00:05:11] weapons, equipment in...
[00:05:27] The People's Front deployed a humanitarian headquarters, day and
[00:05:30] night indifferent people were on duty at temporary
[00:05:33] accommodation points and worked
[00:05:35] in warehouses.
[00:05:37] Our fighters one by one liberated settlements,
[00:05:41] the final turning point in the battles was the stream.
[00:05:44] Russian attack aircraft in full ammunition and equipment entered
[00:05:48] the rear of the Armed Forces of Ukraine via a gas pipeline. Our military correspondent Alexander Sladkov witnessed
[00:05:52] the legendary operation. This is
[00:05:54] the entrance to the most dangerous place now. It's
[00:05:58] impossible to stay long.
[00:06:01] Scouts and tunnellers were exposed to enormous
[00:06:03] technological danger and could have been poisoned by gas
[00:06:07] and died at the very first steps underground. Listen, well,
[00:06:11] do you already imagine what the enemy will feel when you
[00:06:14] suddenly jump out? Of course,
[00:06:17] of course, it's also a joy for us that we are not going
[00:06:20] above ground,
[00:06:22] the militants fled Sudzha, and then from the small village of Gornal
[00:06:26] right on the border, on April 26,
[00:06:29] 2025, over the dominant height,
[00:06:32] the Russian
[00:06:33] flag was raised.
[00:06:42] are returning home, 170 people have already reunited with their
[00:06:46] families, smiles and tears of joy at the meeting are the result
[00:06:49] of large-scale work. The fate of about 300
[00:06:52] residents of the Kursk region still remains unknown.
[00:06:56] We continue to use all possible humanitarian
[00:06:59] mechanisms to establish the fate of every person.
[00:07:03] The crimes of the Kyiv regime do not go unpunished, the lion's
[00:07:07] share falls under the article on terrorism. At the moment,
[00:07:10] the investigation of more than 300 criminal cases has been completed. Court
[00:07:13] verdicts have been handed down in respect of 280
[00:07:16] militants. Work also continues with civilians returned
[00:07:20] from previously captured settlements. Their testimonies
[00:07:24] are carefully analyzed to identify previously unknown
[00:07:28] facts about the unlawful actions of Ukrainian military personnel.
[00:07:31] Neo-Nazis shelled the homes of civilians, artillery and tanks
[00:07:35] of the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit shops, kindergartens, and hospitals. Militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to level
[00:07:38] the local school to the ground, if you pay attention
[00:07:42] to the background, it may seem that the main destruction fell on
[00:07:46] the roof of the building, but in fact, the collapse was so
[00:07:50] strong that it reached the academic floor. The border area is healing
[00:07:53] its wounds with the help of the Kursk Rubizh, volunteers of United
[00:07:57] Russia are restoring houses damaged by shelling.
[00:07:59] Peaceful life will return to Sudzha, says Evgeny
[00:08:03] Shestopalov, the abbot of the Holy Trinity Church, who has
[00:08:05] repeatedly become the hero of our reports. In the first days of the invasion
[00:08:08] of the SSU, he sheltered civilians.
[00:08:13] After the evacuation, Father Evgeny returned to dangerous areas many times,
[00:08:17] evacuated people, delivered humanitarian aid, despite two
[00:08:20] wounds and an upcoming operation, he still
[00:08:23] supports the fighters, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to be
[00:08:26] back on his native land. I will return, I have a church
[00:08:30] that I still need to finish building, we need to pray to God together, and continue
[00:08:33] building our Sudzha. Sudzha with songs and blossoming
[00:08:37] fields, without cannonades and sirens. Elizaveta Bukreeva,
[00:08:40] Alexander Azarov, Vesti Kursk.
[00:09:12] fighters stormed buildings that Ukrainian terrorists had turned into
[00:09:16] strongholds, enemy tanks and armored personnel carriers were burned with the help
[00:09:19] of ударные UAVs. Korean forces also successfully
[00:09:23] mastered their use. The advance of ground forces was supported by
[00:09:26] their own artillery and mortar
[00:09:28] crews.
[00:09:33] December 2024, episode of the offensive of the DPRK
[00:09:37] troops in Plekhovo - this is the Sudzhan district of the Kursk
[00:09:40] region. Several detachments of... Equipment lands on the outskirts
[00:09:44] of the village, it is liberated from the Armed Forces of Ukraine in just 3
[00:09:47] hours. Combat coordination and combat tactics were honed to perfection by
[00:09:51] the DPRK special operations forces.
[00:09:54] The Ministry of Defense published
[00:09:57] training at one of the training grounds.
[00:10:02] On the helmets of the stormtroopers are St. George's ribbons - an immutable
[00:10:06] symbol of military glory, memory and victory over the Nazis.
[00:10:09] Against modern Nazis, they are ready to fight.
[00:10:18] Russian commanders, who have extensive experience, acted as instructors
[00:10:22] and mentors for the Korean fighters.
[00:10:58] The professionalism and huge contribution of DPRK fighters to the liberation
[00:11:01] of the Kurdish region was particularly noted by Vladimir Putin. At the parade in
[00:11:05] honor of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War,
[00:11:09] representatives of Pyongyang were invited as honorary
[00:11:12] guests.
[00:11:19] And already this year, a detachment of servicemen from the DPRK
[00:11:22] marched across the cobblestones of Red Square for the first time.
[00:11:30] In the Alexander Garden, the president personally thanked the commander and asked
[00:11:34] him to convey greetings to those soldiers
[00:11:44] region from the invaders from the VSO is celebrated not only in Russia.
[00:11:48] April 26 is a special date in the DPRK. Exactly one year
[00:11:52] after the Ukrainian Nazis finally...
[00:12:28] The construction process of the museum of military feats of Korean
[00:12:30] servicemen was personally supervised by the head
[00:12:33] of state, who evaluated the finishing work, the installation of sculptures
[00:12:37] and monuments, at the Stele of memory of those soldiers who gave
[00:12:41] their lives for the liberation of Russian territory, the supreme
[00:12:44] leader knelt
[00:13:09] of the enemy in the Kursk region, sappers from the DPRK helped
[00:13:12] clear Russian villages. They care about our land
[00:13:15] no less than about their own
[00:13:18] Korean land.
[00:13:22] Operation Stream, then during the liberation of Sudzha, became
[00:13:25] legendary, after passing through a narrow gas pipe, Russian soldiers went straight
[00:13:29] into the enemy's rear, this became a turning point in the battles for
[00:13:32] the city. Among those who then risked their lives was
[00:13:35] a sniper-scout with the call sign Ripley. In an interview with our program, she
[00:13:39] spoke about what helped overcome almost 15
[00:13:42] km of underground path.
[00:13:46] Going through the pipe to Sudzha was indeed very
[00:13:49] difficult, both physically and, probably,
[00:13:53] psychologically. because,
[00:13:57] being in a confined space, in the
[00:14:00] cold, damp,
[00:14:03] it's quite difficult to cope with
[00:14:06] it psychologically, but people went with
[00:14:10] character, my partner and I also went.
[00:14:13] All the details of that legendary story, which the fighter with the call sign
[00:14:17] Ripley shared, watch in the full Vesti today at
[00:14:21] 8:00 PM. The volume of attracted investments in

[00:24:04] Drone
[00:24:06] systems, always
[00:24:38] a serious accident occurred today in the very center of Omsk, a passenger
[00:24:42] car, whose driver, according to one version, felt unwell
[00:24:45] while driving, at high speed, drove into a crowd of pedestrians,
[00:24:48] people were hospitalized and two are now in
[00:24:51] intensive care, tough footage from Irina
[00:24:54] Lots. The moment of the collision was caught on street
[00:24:57] surveillance cameras, here is the car, you can see how the car separates from the traffic
[00:25:01] and at full speed drives into people on the traffic
[00:25:04] island. The driver, born in 1962, driving
[00:25:08] along Maslennikova Street from Pushkina Street,
[00:25:12] lost control and hit the traffic island. At that moment,
[00:25:16] seven people were there, people were waiting for their turn to cross to
[00:25:20] the other side of the street. At this intersection, the pedestrian
[00:25:23] crossing is arranged in such a way that it is divided into two phases, and in order to
[00:25:27] finally cross the street, pedestrians have to stop on this
[00:25:30] island and between streams of cars
[00:25:34] wait for the green light of the traffic light. Now
[00:25:37] the police are investigating all the circumstances of the accident, it is known that the driver was
[00:25:40] sober, the preliminary version is that the man felt unwell at the wheel, perhaps he
[00:25:44] was distracted or lost consciousness, although according to eyewitnesses, after
[00:25:47] the collision he himself got out of the car. We only
[00:25:50] heard the impact, when we looked, people were already sitting
[00:25:54] or lying, it turns out, the driver got out, as
[00:25:57] if, he got out, but I saw no panic in him, these are
[00:26:01] frames shot by eyewitnesses. Immediately after the accident, it is clear that the victims
[00:26:05] were given assistance right on the spot, now everyone, including the driver,
[00:26:08] has been hospitalized, doctors are conducting examinations, it is known that one
[00:26:12] woman is in serious condition, after the results of the check, the issue of
[00:26:15] initiating a criminal case against the motorist will be decided. Irina Lotts, Andrey
[00:26:19] Ostapenko, Vesti, Omsk. A Ukrainian
[00:26:22] cargo plane at Leipzig airport, near which a drone
[00:26:26] with explosives was found, was transporting ammunition. German
[00:26:29] media write about this, citing data from a police report. According to
[00:26:33] it, the shells were delivered to Germany from France, then they
[00:26:36] were supposed to be reloaded onto one of the four Ukrainian aircraft that were at
[00:26:40] the airport at that time. The recipient
[00:26:43] of the weapons has not yet been reported, but it is known that
[00:26:46] Leipzig airport is an important transshipment point for delivering
[00:26:50] Western weapons precisely to Ukraine. The drone with
[00:26:53] a detonator found yesterday on the runway was defused
[00:26:56] by a controlled explosion near the airport by the German
[00:27:00] Interior Ministry. The incident was called a qualitatively new
[00:27:03] threat. The European Union admitted that it could not
[00:27:07] establish Russia's connection with the migration crisis in
[00:27:10] Spanish Ceuta. The day before, supervisory authorities received
[00:27:13] an order to check how Moscow could have influenced
[00:27:16] the news from the ex-slave, but found
[00:27:19] nothing. Now, according to the mayor, there are between 3 and
[00:27:23] 500 migrants in the city. More than 100
[00:27:26] people died trying to enter Spanish territory, and soldiers,
[00:27:29] who were deployed
[00:27:33] to Ceuta and Melilla, are filing complaints with the country's defense ministry, as reported
[00:27:37] by the newspaper Reason. They are outraged by 16-hour
[00:27:41] shifts and a lack of food. Rations
[00:27:44] have been reduced from one sandwich, a pack of cookies
