[00:00:05] The Islamic Republic stated that there would be no negotiations with the states until
[00:00:09] Washington fulfills Tehran's conditions. Meanwhile, the US Department of Energy
[00:00:12] reports that the strategic reserve of American oil has reached
[00:00:16] a record low in 40
[00:00:18] years. Saudi Arabia and Yemen continue to exchange blows.
[00:00:22] The Houthis claim that Saudi Air Force attacked the provinces
[00:00:26] of Saada and Taiz. At least five people were killed. Reports of explosions
[00:00:30] are also coming from cities in Saudi Arabia. The media reports that
[00:00:33] Riyadh has requested military support from London. The US
[00:00:37] claims to be in direct negotiations with the Houthis. According to
[00:00:40] Vice President J.D. Vance, Washington is allegedly
[00:00:44] in control of the situation.
[00:00:46] Now it's time for economic news, Kirill Khovrin is joining us.
[00:00:49] Kirill, welcome, we're starting the morning with good news:
[00:00:53] Russia has increased the production of petroleum products. Yes, this was done as
[00:00:56] part of measures to stabilize the fuel market, I'll tell you everything now.
[00:01:01] New facilities have been commissioned at Russian oil refineries, which has already
[00:01:04] allowed for an increase in the volume of petroleum product output. This was
[00:01:08] discussed at a meeting on the situation in the fuel market, which was chaired by Deputy Prime Minister
[00:01:12] Alexander Novak. Gasoline and diesel - according to the cabinet of
[00:01:15] ministers - are being delivered to the regions on schedule. The authorities are
[00:01:19] manually adjusting supplies where local
[00:01:23] disruptions are recorded. It has been ordered to intensify control over
[00:01:26] pricing in the small wholesale segment of the fuel market.
[00:01:31] The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is already at a minimum since November
[00:01:35] 1982. In a week, the indicator dropped to
[00:01:39] 285 million barrels. Such data is provided by
[00:01:42] the American Department of Energy. Donald Trump promised to fill
[00:01:46] the oil storage, but as a result brought the reserves to a lower
[00:01:49] point than Joe Biden, whom he criticized. The task is complicated
[00:01:53] by the situation in the global market of hydrocarbons. According to Saudi
[00:01:56] officials, the restoration of the key East-West oil pipeline,
[00:02:00] destroyed by drones of pro-Iranian forces, will take up to
[00:02:03] 5 weeks. However, successful repairs do not guarantee the restoration
[00:02:07] of exports. The pipeline leads to the export terminal of the port of Yanbu on the Red
[00:02:10] Sea, the entrance to which is now controlled by the Houthis, hostile
[00:02:14] to Saudi Arabia. Against this background, analysts
[00:02:17] again point out that the market underestimates
[00:02:20] the risks.
[00:02:24] I believe that the current price of oil - 107 dollars for Brent and 103 for
[00:02:28] WTI - is still too low. The events of the past
[00:02:32] weekend showed what happens when there are no safety
[00:02:36] cushions left. Our reserves are depleting, so
[00:02:39] the volume of supplies from them is decreasing. The situation in the
[00:02:42] Middle East is still unstable, and now it has become even
[00:02:46] significantly more dangerous. The Strait of Hormuz has practically ceased
[00:02:49] to function, and the alternative routes were this
[00:02:53] pipeline and the Red Sea.
[00:02:56] Meanwhile, the American president demanded compensation from other countries for the costs
[00:03:00] that the US incurred in the Strait of Hormuz. On his social network, Trump claims
[00:03:03] that oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, and countries that have not
[00:03:07] helped at all should compensate
[00:03:10] America for the losses when, as Trump put it, this fraudulent disaster
[00:03:14] ends. In his opinion, the states have been doing
[00:03:17] much more for others for generations than for themselves. At the same time, Trump
[00:03:21] did not mention that it was initially American attacks that caused the closure
[00:03:25] of the Strait of Hormuz. And
[00:03:28] meanwhile, gasoline prices in France have reached an historical
[00:03:32] maximum. A liter of 95 octane there now costs on average more than 2 euros
[00:03:35] and 10 cents. This is the highest value since the start
[00:03:38] of statistics in 1985.
[00:03:42] Le Figaro writes: the fuel crisis in the republic
[00:03:45] is worsening. The continuous price increase has continued for 6
[00:03:49] consecutive weeks, and experts are already talking about reaching
[00:03:52] 3 euros per liter. As the reason for the last
[00:03:55] jump, the French publication cites the Houthis' establishment of control over
[00:03:59] Bab al-Mandeb. Now Iran and its allies
[00:04:02] control two of the four global choke points
[00:04:06] through which tankers pass, summarizes
[00:04:09] Le Figaro. And the official exchange rates for today: dollar
[00:04:12] 84 rubles 33 kopecks. Euro 97.76.
[00:04:16] Yuan 12 rubles 53
[00:04:18] kopecks.

[00:05:27] plus - another good story. Avito
[00:07:12] conducted a large-scale training session at the training ground. Under the guidance of experienced
[00:07:15] instructors, they practiced fire and tactical training,
[00:07:19] honed the skills of mobile groups, the use of
[00:07:22] drones, firing from a large-caliber machine gun and
[00:07:26] hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers. There was also an obstacle
[00:07:29] course, building assaults, and urban
[00:07:31] combat. Chelyabinsk Higher
[00:07:35] Military Aviation School of Navigators celebrates
[00:07:38] an anniversary. This academic year is its ninetieth. Currently, it is
[00:07:41] the only one in the country that trains personnel for front-line, long-range, and
[00:07:45] military transport aviation. A report by Polina
[00:07:48] Tkachenko. In Chelyabinsk, cadets master the profession
[00:07:52] not only at their desks. On special simulators, they practice skills
[00:07:56] that will be needed in the future during flights. This is a simulator
[00:07:59] for the beginning of a cadet's flight path. It is here that he learns the basics of radio communication
[00:08:03] with the ship's crew. This is what the navigator's workplace looks like,
[00:08:07] many different instruments. First of all, he puts on the headset and
[00:08:10] checks if the controls are set.
[00:08:15] Nikita is at the controls, under the supervision of the instructor, he is trying to
[00:08:19] fly an Il-76 MD aircraft for the first time.
[00:08:21] So, we take off, press
[00:08:23] the stopwatch, flight time,
[00:08:27] speed, attention, speed is increasing. Before entering
[00:08:31] the school, Nikita served in intelligence in the SVO zone, now he has the opportunity
[00:08:34] to learn to fly, and the training takes place on preferential terms. He decided
[00:08:38] to connect his life with the sky, but military transport
[00:08:42] aviation is one of the opportunities to travel the world,
[00:08:46] to work with different people, and in principle, it's a useful
[00:08:49] job, it's necessary. And in the neighboring office, instead of a desk and a board,
[00:08:53] there's a Su-34 fighter-bomber simulator. Denis, who served in
[00:08:57] Kherson and Mykolaiv regions, will take control next year.
[00:09:00] We were engaged in the liberation of territory
[00:09:04] on the ground, and now I want to
[00:09:07] liberate and defend our homeland from above, from the air. I had a dream of the sky
[00:09:11] since a young age, and I
[00:09:14] wanted to be part of the armed forces since early childhood, so I
[00:09:18] tried, took a risk, and enrolled at 26. Before
[00:09:21] a real flight, future navigators train on a simulator. Cadets
[00:09:25] learn to control and practice actions in different situations. I decided
[00:09:29] to check how difficult it is. Let's imagine that I'm a cadet, I just
[00:09:32] came to class. How would you explain to me, as a future
[00:09:36] navigator, how to control all this? It is necessary
[00:09:39] to check the landing gear and mechanization, turn on
[00:09:43] the headlight. Look straight ahead, look straight ahead, there are no foreign
[00:09:46] objects, we are ready for takeoff, pull yourself up, this is gaining
[00:09:50] altitude, you see, yes, you can increase the bank, that is, move the stick to the right,
[00:09:54] a bank will appear, you start turning. The simulator also
[00:09:56] has a feeling of flight, you tried it yourself, yes, there is visual
[00:10:00] visualization, but not completely, because there are no
[00:10:03] tactile sensations, the sound is a little different, yes,
[00:10:06] there is no overload. In total, several dozen SVO veterans are currently studying
[00:10:10] at the school. Many.
[00:10:55] not worse, here children go to modern schools and kindergartens for free,
[00:10:59] every second family is large, all this is
[00:11:02] the result of working for people, you also have successes, in the Orel region,
[00:11:05] record harvests in Khakassia, large-scale
[00:11:08] construction, so it can be done everywhere, we will
[00:11:11] do it, for the KPRF, for the KPRF

[00:11:28] discussions, for Russia, open to all
[00:11:31] free people of the planet, for the responsibility of deputies to
[00:11:35] voters, for power that is exercised
[00:11:38] not over society, but by society itself, the Party of

[00:11:45] best.

[00:11:56] new things, build, help. We do not
[00:12:00] ask for help from the state, we demand
[00:12:03] that we are not interfered with, then we will do everything
[00:12:07] for Russia to win. Let
[00:12:09] business breathe. Choose LDPR,

[00:12:35] Party Rodina, number 7 on the ballot,

[00:13:17] Imagine a Russia where people are respected, where people
[00:13:20] are cherished and trusted, where every law begins with
[00:13:24] a thought.
[00:14:55] Now about the weather in the regions of Siberia and the Far East, winter
[00:14:58] is trying its strength, in Central Russia a prolonged Indian summer.
[00:15:02] When the warming will peak, Olga
[00:15:05] Mikhailova knows. Indian summer does not give up,
[00:15:08] the temperature in the Russian Plain continues to rise. When
[00:15:12] the warming will peak and where today, due to the cyclone, almost
[00:15:15] half of the monthly rainfall norm may fall. This is the weather, a joint
[00:15:19] project of Russia 24 TV channel and the Fobos center. I'm Olga Mikhailova.
[00:15:23] Hello. Another cyclone will try to spoil
[00:15:26] the Indian summer on the Russian Plain today. In Moscow, with the beginning
[00:15:29] of the new week, warming processes intensified. The sun
[00:15:33] once again began to really bake, and under its rays
[00:15:36] in the very center of the metropolis, on Palchik, the air managed to warm up to
[00:15:40] +20. Meanwhile, over Kuban,
[00:15:44] rain clouds gathered. In Anapa, the water
[00:15:47] and air temperatures equalized the day before. In both cases, the thermometers in the first
[00:15:51] half of the day showed +24.
[00:15:54] Despite the approaching storm, vacationers were not in a hurry
[00:15:57] to leave the beaches. But after lunch, the weather finally
[00:16:01] worsened. On September 14th, sun loungers for
[00:16:04] 500 rubles were no longer needed. Sitting
[00:16:08] absolutely free, that's it, the season
[00:16:11] is slowly ending, this is how people leave the beach and
[00:16:15] scatter, the bad weather vividly manifested itself in Crimea, in
[00:16:18] the Foros area, a sea tornado of impressive
[00:16:21] size spun up, whether it eventually reached land is
[00:16:25] unknown, a tornado in Crimea,
[00:16:28] guys, just generally, look,
[00:16:31] beauty, awesome, this one is
[00:16:34] huge. It must be said that despite the warm trends
[00:16:38] in the atmosphere, the fauna is actively preparing for the change of seasons. While
[00:16:41] the elements have not yet raged, in Sevastopol, on Cape Fiolent, a group
[00:16:45] of storks stopped. The seasonal migration of birds is currently underway, and the birds
[00:16:49] stopped in Crimea to gather strength before their further flight south.
[00:16:53] Well, the cyclone that spun up on Monday over the Black Sea region will
[00:16:57] already penetrate deep into the Russian Plain today. Only the west and north of European
[00:17:00] Russia will remain outside its zone. At the same time, the territory from
[00:17:04] the upper reaches of the Kama to the spurs of the Caucasus will be covered by rain fields.
[00:17:08] The Black Earth Region will be at the epicenter of the bad weather, where in some places
[00:17:11] about half of the monthly volume of moisture will fall in just one day.
[00:17:15] Heavy precipitation is expected in all major cities of the region,
[00:17:18] but Voronezh and Lipetsk will suffer the most from the bad weather.
[00:17:22] According to model estimates, the maximum intensity of downpours here will be reached
[00:17:25] in the middle of the day, in just 6 hours, one and a half to two buckets
[00:17:29] of rainwater can fall on every square meter of roads
[00:17:32] and sidewalks, so there will be no avoiding floods.
[00:17:35] Does this mean that the Indian summer on the Russian plain has come to an end? Not at
[00:17:39] all. The fact is that already tomorrow, following the cyclone,
[00:17:42] the ridge of the Azores anticyclone will begin to advance here. By mid-week,
[00:17:46] the center of high pressure will cover the entire southern half of European Russia, and in
[00:17:50] conditions of clear skies, the air will warm up well.
[00:17:53] Well, the warming will peak on Thursday. Look, on
[00:17:57] this day, relatively cool weather will only be observed in the north of the region,
[00:18:00] here the thermometers will show quite normal temperatures for mid-September:
[00:18:04] +10-15. Further south, the temperature regime will be
[00:18:07] warmer than usual, you see, in the central strip, after noon
[00:18:11] +18-23, in the Black Sea region +
[00:18:14] 23-28. Therefore, in the same Anapa, the velvet season
[00:18:17] will continue. Today, due to thunderstorms in the city, it's a little
[00:18:21] cooler than it should be, +22. However, from
[00:18:24] tomorrow, the weather will improve, warming will begin, in the second
[00:18:28] half of the week, the air will warm up to +25-27,
[00:18:31] which is already on average 2° above
[00:18:35] the norm. In Moscow, on Tuesday, there will be more clouds, but
[00:18:38] it is unlikely to come to significant precipitation. On Wednesday and Thursday, it will be
[00:18:41] dry and sunny, on the thermometers, as if in the end of August,
[00:18:45] +18-21. Only on Friday in the region,
[00:18:48] light rains are not excluded, so the warm anomaly
[00:18:52] will decrease. That's all from me, goodbye. what is happening in Ukraine now very
[00:19:37] much resembles the events that took place on the territory of the former
[00:19:41] Yugoslavia. The leitmotif of all this is
[00:19:44] the desire to block Russia's path to Europe.
[00:19:47] Ta-da!
[00:21:24] Briefly about the main news by this hour.
[00:21:28] Russian fighters thwarted the rotation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kramatorsk area. Enemy
[00:21:31] military transport was attacked by drones of the southern group of forces,
[00:21:35] four pickups were destroyed. On the approaches to Dobropillia, enemy
[00:21:38] units of the Center group are striking. With the help of drones,
[00:21:42] they managed to cut off the enemy's transport
[00:21:45] logistics.
[00:21:48] The Saudi Arabian Air Force struck the provinces of Taiz and
