00:00:00in France, unfortunately, to put it mildly, leaves much to be
00:00:03desired. As such events of this nature are, I would say a unique
00:00:07occurrence in western Europe, because in reality there is currently a trend in
00:00:10European countries towards demolishing and destroying soviet monuments,
00:00:14whereas here in France, we are unveiling monument to soviet
00:00:17heroes. Now we got comments from a grand
00:00:21daughter of soviet marshall Ivan konev regarding the
00:00:24new monument in the EU member state of
00:00:27Slovakia.
00:00:31My initial reaction naturally is one of joy. After all, these are
00:00:35challenging times we live in. Following the demolition of two monuments to my
00:00:38grandfather, one in craco and the other in Prague. This event is
00:00:42without a doubt absolutely extraordinary. Given the current
00:00:45climate in Europe and the way the red army's role in liberating the continent is viewed
00:00:49today. This is a highly significant and heartwarming occasion for me. We
00:00:53are deeply grateful to the prime minister of Slovakia Robert Fitto for
00:00:56unveiling this monument and for refusing to be intimidated by how the rest of Europe. might
00:01:00react, in spite of everything, he went ahead and did it. I believe we are
00:01:04currently witnessing a rewriting of history. Everything is being turned
00:01:07completely its head, not just the history of World War II, but arguably the
00:01:11entirety of modern history since the mid-20th century. I have
00:01:14lived on this earth for quite some time now, looking back at the heads of state of the past in
00:01:18Germany, France, the US and Britain, and comparing them with today's
00:01:21leaders, the contrast is certainly not in the ladder's favor, and asked for
00:01:25this war on monuments, good heavens, why even fight them? I
00:01:29suppose it is simply.
00:01:39you can check rt.com for more details. i'll see you again.
00:03:00Look, what are you doing,
00:03:03we all perform the same function, we fight for Russia, for our
00:03:06homeland. Now, very
00:03:10carefully,
00:03:16if on the roof behind,
00:03:18we need,
00:03:24what will come at us now, what to do, well, let it out of sight,
00:03:28do nothing.
00:03:38And that the whole road will be in nets, well almost,
00:03:41yes,
00:03:45if the drone detector goes off, if you don't visually observe
00:03:48it, you continue moving, if you visually observe it, or the shooters start working,
00:03:52so here you need to try to
00:03:55not fly through quickly, as practice has shown, the drone will catch
00:03:58up anyway, that's it... it's better to drive at a moderate speed so that
00:04:02the driver can brake smoothly, so that the shooters can jump
00:04:06out of the car if anything happens, well, and accordingly all the people in
00:04:10the car,
00:04:14and why are you a battle-hardened
00:04:17vegan, well, because I don't eat meat,
00:04:19what war on meat, exactly,
00:04:23точно,
00:04:26not out of conviction, I just psychologically can't, why?
00:04:35Drive, drive, drive, drive,
00:04:46well, nets save well, in any case they get entangled in them,
00:04:50and you don't even wear a helmet, that's
00:04:52right, yes, I'm used to driving without
00:04:55ездить,
00:04:57I used to be a tank driver, that's it. and
00:05:01I drove without a bulletproof vest,
00:05:02so I wish,
00:05:06in general, just now
00:05:10our patriot was being dragged.
00:05:35from the admin how much the war has replayed starting from VPV, Mavic reconnaissance,
00:05:38ending with agricultural drones, airborne Bupala.
00:05:43War is a push for progression, not for nothing, as they say
00:05:47patriot patriot
00:05:49to whom Patriot Vegan 1593
00:05:531593, emergency lights
00:05:55on.
00:05:59Patriot five small Patriot main
00:06:02gate as he received five small main gates
00:06:06he received.
00:06:13That's it, let's go, I myself am from
00:06:16Enakievo, local, let's say, from the DPR, Donetsk People's Republic, those who
00:06:20lived in Donbas, we, starting from 2014, later
00:06:24suffered a lot, liberation and so on, we
00:06:27had shelling, that is, next to me, where I live, in the village where I lived, they
00:06:31completely destroyed my house literally 10 meters away, well, by shelling, we had
00:06:34shelling, small arms, artillery and so on, from 2015 to
00:06:372016 we were practically daily with my mother in
00:06:40basements, and it somehow gave, in short.
00:07:13I would like to tell my story, everyone has a story, some have a big story, some
00:07:16have a small one, but every soldier has one, in our brigade there are
00:07:19truly worthy
00:07:20ребята,
00:07:24even when I decided to nevertheless and made the decision
00:07:28to join a volunteer formation, yes, to become a volunteer, at that moment I
00:07:31definitely had no thoughts, not even a
00:07:35желания, даже мысли, что я могу стать командиром
00:07:38бригады,
00:08:12betray the brigade to someone, he offered me,
00:08:16and since I'm familiar with the brigade, I've served more than one contract
00:08:19here as a political officer, he offered me
00:08:23to lead this brigade, well, of course I agreed, now
00:08:26I'm carrying this burden, well, this "Vygiza" is going in
00:08:30that direction, so that you pass, turn right, there's
00:08:34Danchik standing there, you see, there he is, there he is, and this
00:08:38is your vegan washing machine, yes, when they were attacking us, I remember that
00:08:42moment. Another thing, let's agree right away,
00:08:45if something happens to
00:08:47one vehicle, we continue
00:08:51moving, we continue moving,
00:08:54it's fine, we'll cope, everything will be fine, you need to think
00:08:57more positively.
00:09:04We can fight on the battlefield, we can fight in the quiet
00:09:07of offices, it doesn't matter, where we are needed now, there we
00:09:10fight. So, in this sense, all life is
00:09:13war, because our homeland
00:09:17has a lot of problems and many threats that need to be
00:09:20answered.
00:09:24From the very beginning of the war, I was involved in forming detachments, and
00:09:27different detachments, both detachments that were officially called
00:09:31DROs, reconnaissance and sabotage detachments,
00:09:34yes, some detachments were Bars detachments, at some point I
00:09:38had to directly command some of these detachments. By
00:09:41the spring of 2023, two detachments merged, I also
00:09:44called up people there, not through military enlistment offices, but it was such a call-up
00:09:48that it was like, "Gather, guys!" And
00:09:51many people came, and that's how the brigade was formed, and I became its natural
00:09:54commander, that's it. And why is
00:09:57it called...? Well, because in fact
00:10:01volunteers are quite closely associated with Saint George, we even have
00:10:04a day, well, the day of the Union of Donbas Volunteers is
00:10:08May 6, yes, the day of Saint George, yes, the Victorious.
00:10:12Therefore, naturally, the brigade became
00:10:14Georgian.
00:10:18And the lecture is peculiar, yes, there are, of course,
00:10:21trophies from the current war. This one.
00:10:26a pure trophy, a purely
00:10:27military one,
00:10:30you don't see the marks, it's an Italian combat knife, it's rather, it's quite
00:10:34high-quality, but if you look closely at the
00:10:37mark, you can see an inscription on it, it's
00:10:41the mark of the international legion
00:10:44of Ukraine, wow, yes,
00:10:47you could say it's a rarity,
00:10:49in a way.
00:11:05where, there he is,
00:11:05guys,
00:11:10hey,
00:11:17he's in the car,
00:11:20this is already the third head-on collision in the last 4 days, thank
00:11:23God, uh...
00:11:26the ammunition that was in the bird, did not
00:11:30go off, damaged the windshield, everyone is safe,
00:11:33the car is also basically
00:11:34intact,
00:11:38the personnel are intact, so everything else is working
00:11:42moments.
00:11:50an orphan from the age of eight, that is, mom died when I was 8 years old, then
00:11:54later dad... died, I studied in a boarding school, and in general I was such
00:11:57a street kid, a hooligan, when I often ran away from
00:12:01home, basements, attics, all that, for me, as such
00:12:05a street kid, a hooligan, well, all this was so familiar and
00:12:08native, so when, for example, I came here already to the SMO, basement
00:12:12apartments, dugouts and all that, for me it was no longer
00:12:15something new,
00:12:18well, when I was at the boarding school,
00:12:22that was, I think,
00:12:26the sixth grade, they scolded me, tried to,
00:12:29so to speak, educate me, if I had bad behavior, I would end up badly,
00:12:33I would go to prison or
00:12:36somewhere else, but for some reason I somehow
00:12:40said in my heart, no, I'll grow up and become
00:12:43a deputy, well, and somehow all the teachers, teachers
00:12:46also perceived it with laughter, but for me, on the contrary, it caused some kind of, you know,
00:12:50well, childish reaction, that like, I'll grow up and
00:12:53prove it to you and so on. Then I really became a deputy of the State Council
00:12:57of the Republic of Tatarstan. You can hold it here,
00:13:00but it's best like this, when it will be, why, because
00:13:03it will be with you in the moment, you just turn it over and just
00:13:07open fire, you don't need to aim, roughly speaking, with contact, you need to
00:13:11suppress it, after really getting to know the volunteers, I
00:13:15was imbued with this spirit of volunteering, I started
00:13:18coming with humanitarian aid once a month to bring
00:13:21привозить.
00:13:24Plus,
00:14:25plus,
00:14:25plus,
00:14:31they are now very something very
00:14:34active, roads are blocked.
00:14:50We're going through,
00:14:53we're meeting, we're meeting.
00:14:59Besides the fact that you are called to the army, for example, and you
00:15:03go to give your home to the homeland, as they say,
00:15:07a volunteer, voluntarily goes to defend his fatherland,
00:15:10weighed all the pros and cons, made the decision that
00:15:14he, well, he voluntarily goes to the fact that he can either
00:15:18return or not return.
00:15:21Listen, she remembers why, and what
00:15:24does it mean? Well, in different ways, in
00:15:26history, I think there was a Japanese commander, and my
00:15:30mother's cat is named that,
00:15:33apparently. Well, mothers are our angels.
00:16:08not much fun, what else do you do in your duties, my
00:16:11direct duties are the use
00:16:15of artillery means,
00:16:17we identify, confirm targets, we apply
00:16:21firepower with different means, that is,
00:16:24there from, in short, from small to
00:16:27large.
00:16:30These guys who work with the guns, it's always a priority, because
00:16:33first, they are specialists, and second, their firepower is enormous.
00:17:20And so, we only have two windows here: either strong wind, or strong
00:17:24rain. That's it, everything else is just the will
00:17:26of the Almighty, because different things
00:17:30happen. That's it, we're on
00:17:32site. Yes, I copy, I copy
00:17:35you, yes.
00:17:40"Hello, hello, here, yes, you can
00:17:43take off the band, so,
00:17:46the integrity of our front is our gunners, who
00:17:50in cold, in heat, in frost, under
00:17:53shelling, under attack by drones, they work,
00:17:57they help our assaults either to entrench,
00:18:00or to advance forward, well, and in general, we carry out
00:18:03tasks, everything related to destroying
00:18:07all the guys, volunteers,
00:18:10all gathered their strength, whoever you ask,
00:18:14everyone answered that, well, how am I better than those guys who are already
00:18:18fighting here, in general,
00:18:20from the year of the hairy, pull up
00:18:23a little, we're working,
00:18:25we're working, and definitely, guys, when you're about to land, let us know,
00:18:29we'll zoom in,
00:18:31the very beginning, yes, yes, yes, right here, because
00:18:35artillery works. gradually dismantling the enemy's
00:18:38fortifications, so that we can get to
00:18:42FPV work, you're on this, that's it, now
00:18:45the target has just arrived, now we need to
00:18:48work, there are presumably enemy
00:18:51fortifications, so they will now surgically simply
00:18:55excise the tumor.
00:18:58these are the most heroic stormtroopers, because
00:19:01we work, how we identified, we inflict
00:19:04fire, and we sit, wait for... our guys there to
00:19:08move somewhere further and some
00:19:11task will be performed, but they are constantly stressed, they
00:19:15really hope for us,
00:19:18for
00:19:19activists,
00:19:22we're working with a D-30 howitzer
00:19:26on the enemy, we're conducting harassment fire so that the enemy
00:19:29lowers their horizon, and doesn't twitch anywhere, while we
00:19:33prepare our UAVs.
00:19:3756 36 56
00:19:4036 aim and report, aim
00:19:43and report 5636
00:19:46aimed, ready, come on, I received the boys, fire
00:19:50received, aimed ready
00:19:52shot
00:20:02Here's
00:20:02Karlada.
00:20:07That's it.
00:20:38Yes, hello, how are you, who, I also have
00:20:41a dog, and you are a kind dog, yes, he
00:20:44is the kindest, he looks, yes,
00:20:47scary, but I really like the dog.
00:21:50Oh, handsome,
00:21:53birds are simply shot down, successfully moreover, they are also lucky, they can
00:21:56shoot, and I've already shot everything, we, we are shooters, yes,
00:21:59I am an old guard here, you could say, from what
00:22:03year, twenty-fourth, I was generally a submachine gunner, formerly
00:22:07now. You too, no, I only came in for
00:22:10an hour,
00:22:14we were going there, yes, I was
00:22:17told, I was the heaviest because of this, that's why I'm all...
00:22:21A drone hit me in the head, yes, and also my eye, I don't
00:22:24have an eye, all the ligaments were sewn through, I have a special plastic tube
00:22:27here, here
00:22:31-uh they cut out a piece of something,
00:22:34intestines or something, they put it in here so that all this
00:22:37works. Also, my lung, I don't have
00:22:41a little bit of it, it's artificial, one is missing, it's artificial, my knees
00:22:44too, well, I'm all scarred, when I came to you
00:22:48at the PPD.
00:22:51I saw that the guys were disabled, indeed with a serious degree
00:22:54of disability,
00:22:56yes, standing at the gates, working, you don't fire them, no,
00:23:00that's why we don't fire them, and so to speak, as you understand, in the corps they
00:23:04know about this very well, well, because it's
00:23:07a kind of social assistance, it's a certain
00:23:11kind of care for them, in essence,
00:23:14all these volunteer organizations,
00:23:17they are not quite like military after all.
00:23:50Someone has to guard the PVD, someone has to guard the headquarters, they
00:23:53are needed, and no one drives them away, they, they are
00:23:57part of our team, well, yes,
00:24:00some with their prostheses can go on the attack,
00:24:03it happens, we have people who received six wounds
00:24:07in this war in the brigade, six
00:24:09wounds, yes, there's no living spot
00:24:13on them,
00:24:15listen, well, thank God you're here and again they look at me like, what are you doing
00:24:19here?
00:24:50No, what about my mother, it's been a year since she's been gone, which is
00:24:53bad, of course, but who raises them, their parents,
00:24:56their parents,
00:25:00the youngest was eight, mom left, mom first left for
00:25:03a month for the elections, then mom will stay longer, she'll
00:25:07stay longer, well, another six months and for
00:25:10another year, but you come home on vacation, rarely,
00:25:13rarely, you don't leave here, even on vacation, well, sometimes, but
00:25:16rarely, it's such a job, I ask, why you?
00:25:55Tell me, how did you, a beautiful woman, end up here, what
00:25:59is this not honest, that's how it happened. I don't have
00:26:03a military specialty, no military ID, and I'm not on record, so
00:26:07it's practically impossible to get in
00:26:09in this situation now, it was a little easier then, but you also had to look for a place
00:26:13that would take a woman without any specialty, without any military
00:26:17experience, well, I found one.
00:26:20I had some training before this, that is, I didn't see weapons
00:26:24here, I worked with weapons before that, but there wasn't such
00:26:27a variety and well, such opportunities as here, naturally,
00:26:31there was no such thing.
00:26:32No,
00:26:35there was a very good mentor who taught
00:26:39everything, that's it, this is about the commander, this is
00:26:42what he says,
00:26:48No, I'm taking two, one stays, one
00:26:51is skilled with me, at least with weapons, everyone
00:26:54knows everything, I teach both personal
00:26:58weapons, teamwork in
00:27:01BKO. So, movement too, someone comes with
00:27:04experience, shares experience, someone here already gains it,
00:27:08helps those who are going in for
00:27:12everyone definitely owns weapons, everyone knows how to use them, everyone
00:27:15carries weapons, ammunition, and so on, so all
00:27:18are shooters, with a gun on them,
00:27:21August, where is the gun?
00:27:24That's it, sit down, I will, or I'll
00:27:27put it away now.
00:27:32when people see that I can really teach, that I myself can do it, I can
00:27:36show, I can teach, I can do it, well, they listen,
00:27:40most listen, yes,
00:27:42they learn, some kind of, let's say, trust appears, questions
00:27:46disappear, that is, if someone were to come on
00:27:49civilian clothes and say, "I'm a deputy political officer" or
00:27:52something else, well, I would see uncomprehending glances,
00:27:56so I don't particularly like to even talk about
00:27:59it, so you were a commander, and your
00:28:02husband is the commander, right? Yes, and he entrusted you with such
00:28:06a responsible job, because he knew you would cope? Yes,
00:28:10so, not enough,
00:28:14next
00:28:14question,
00:28:20last year, that is, they went on a mission, an assault mission, she
00:28:24went, along with her husband, the husband went, accordingly,
00:28:28to lead the group, being the commander of the battalion, she went with
00:28:31him. On the assault
00:28:34mission, the battalion commander died, suffering heavy
00:28:37losses, the mission was completed, and
00:28:40Yara, being with them, also received a serious
00:28:42wound, was evacuated from the
00:28:45battlefield. After the battalion commander died,
00:28:49the personnel of the detachment decided, that is, they appealed to us,
00:28:53to the brigade command, that she should lead the battalion.
00:28:56она.
00:29:00Okay, how do you feel as the Battalion Commander?
00:29:10the task is to prepare, complete the task and wait for them to return,
00:29:14so, well, we have to work, we are working.
00:29:33"now I think that this um um hegemonic kind of
00:29:37mindset um is um
00:29:39deeply ingrained within Donald Trump's
00:29:42personality. He thinks that America, of course, is
00:29:46is still the greatest and most powerful country on the
00:29:50planet, and the United States, according to
00:29:53his, uh, him and his followers, has been short-
00:29:57changed by even by his allies. So it's
00:29:59now um incumbent upon him to change that, uh,
00:30:03by maximizing American dominance."
00:30:20The Houthis warn shipping companies and airlines not
00:30:24to enter Saudi air space. This comes after
00:30:27a devastating strike on Riyadh's main airport,
