00:00:53hello, on the Russia TV channel, an hour to report, all the most interesting and relevant news
00:00:57that happened up to this minute is in the studio with Nikola Zubsik, here's what will be
00:01:00in the program:
00:01:05terrorism in its purest form, the second anniversary of the large-scale invasion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces into the
00:01:09Kursk border region, hundreds of peaceful civilians killed, 300
00:01:12criminal cases, sentences for militants and the fate of those residents who
00:01:15remain in Ukrainian captivity.
00:01:19Tricks are over, resources are exhausted. The old commander-in-chief, new
00:01:23complaints about the state of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
00:01:26Railway legacy from Ukraine remained
00:01:29quite. Because you need to hit correctly,
00:01:32Grigory Vdovin at the work of the railway troops on their
00:01:35anniversary, we immediately prepare a second
00:01:38gift,
00:01:42they themselves came out in communication, a miracle, faith and a concurrence
00:01:45of circumstances in the Irkutsk taiga saved pilots who went missing 3 days ago, who
00:01:49heard them in the sky first,
00:01:52they remember, but they are silent, here they buried bodies that were collected
00:01:56all over the city, why is it so uncomfortable to talk about...
00:02:31Our army today launched new penetrating strikes on Ukrainian
00:02:34rear areas. This night, explosions were heard in Sumy, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, and Odesa
00:02:38regions, where industrial infrastructure became the targets.
00:02:42At the same time, in the Black Sea water area, two more dry cargo ships with
00:02:45weapons were hit. And in Pokrovsk, Dnipropetrovsk region, the Bogdanovskaya
00:02:49electric substation ceased to exist, which, among other things,
00:02:52ensured the movement of electric trains to supply
00:02:55the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
00:03:02In the near defeat zone, front-line aviation operates effectively. At
00:03:05dawn, a Mi-28 helicopter of the "South" group destroyed
00:03:09a camouflaged UAV control point, and several
00:03:12more such command bases, from where the flights of enemy
00:03:16drones were controlled, were destroyed in the area of Alekseevka
00:03:18Druzhkovka.
00:03:24Pressure on the defense of the Kyiv regime is increasing in the Dobropol direction,
00:03:27where tasks are carried out around the clock. The
00:03:30operators of FPV drones hunt for equipment and the remnants
00:03:34of enemy formations. As soon as reconnaissance detects firing points or
00:03:38dugouts, a copter is immediately sent there. This is how,
00:03:41in the Krasny Liman sector of the front, a Bogdana self-propelled gun,
00:03:44an American howitzer, three axes, and a pickup truck were hit. And for better
00:03:48coordination between units, signalmen increased the range
00:03:52of the radio station by 10 times. For this,
00:03:55the ground robot
00:03:57courier was modernized.
00:04:02Today, the details of the liberation of the settlement
00:04:06Zornitsa in the Zaporozhye region, which is located on a strategic
00:04:09height, became known. Militants turned the village into an impregnable fortress with
00:04:13a system of underground communications, but our fighters carried out a lightning-fast
00:04:17sweep and took control of more than 11 km
00:04:20of territory.
00:04:22Hundreds of dead civilians, thousands of crippled destinies,
00:04:25countless war crimes. Today
00:04:29is the second anniversary of the terrorist invasion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces into
00:04:32the Kursk region. On August 6, 2024,
00:04:36Ukrainian armed formations entered the Russian region, occupying
00:04:3959 villages and the large city
00:04:42of Sudzha. Under shelling, without food, water, and medicine, dozens
00:04:46of border residents were forced to survive
00:04:48in the occupied territories. The scale of destruction and the brutal
00:04:52crimes committed by Kyiv militants. The Investigative
00:04:56Committee is still investigating them. The lion's share of them
00:04:59are qualified under the article "terrorism."
00:05:02At the moment, the investigation of more than 300
00:05:05criminal cases has been completed, and court verdicts have been handed down
00:05:09against 280 militants. Work continues.
00:05:22Their testimonies are carefully analyzed to identify previously unknown facts about the illegal actions of Ukrainian servicemen.
00:05:25More than 80 Ukrainian militants have already received life sentences.
00:05:29Neo-Nazis shelled residential buildings, artillery, Ukrainian Armed Forces tanks hit
00:05:33shops, kindergartens, and hospitals. Civilians
00:05:36were separated from their families, kidnapped to the territory
00:05:39controlled by the Kyiv regime. 170 reunited with relatives and
00:05:43loved ones. Attempts to obtain information about those who still remain in
00:05:47Ukrainian captivity do not cease.
00:05:50The fate of about 300 residents of the Kursk region
00:05:53still remains unknown. We continue
00:05:57to use all possible humanitarian mechanisms
00:06:00to establish the fate of every person.
00:06:04For eight months, our fighters liberated one after another
00:06:08settlements of the Kursk region. The final turning point in the battles was
00:06:11the operation. Then Russian units in full
00:06:14ammunition and equipment went behind the lines of
00:06:18Kyiv formations through a gas pipe. Terrorists fled Sudzha, and then
00:06:21from Gornal, a small village right on the border.
00:06:25On April 26, 20 25, the Russian
00:06:29flag was raised over the commanding
00:06:31height.
00:06:33Nationalists continue to launch terrorist attacks on peaceful
00:06:36residents of the Kursk region, as reported by the regional governor Alexander
00:06:39Khinstein. Yesterday, an enemy drone attacked a
00:06:43private house in the village of Kozyrevka, resulting in one person
00:06:46killed and six injured, three of them in serious
00:06:49condition. Russia has found countermeasures to all
00:06:52of Ukraine's tricks in the military sphere. This is how the former commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, now
00:06:56the ambassador of the Kyiv authorities to Great Britain, Valery
00:06:59Zaluzhny, commented on the situation at
00:07:02the Ukrainian army's innovation resource is exhausted. Zaluzhny made
00:07:05this statement at a meeting of Ukrainian ambassadors, where
00:07:08he was asked to explain his previous statement that
00:07:11NATO membership is a myth, as is an attempt to compete with Russia
00:07:15in military-technical terms. After such
00:07:18words, the ex-commander-in-chief was forbidden to attend Zelensky's meeting with
00:07:21the British Minister of Defense.
00:07:24Since February 2022, the West has directly invested 200
00:07:28billion dollars in Ukraine. This figure was announced by the head of the National Bank
00:07:31of Ukraine. He called the amount colossal. At the same time, Kyiv
00:07:35demands increased funding. The Zelensky regime
00:07:38has completely exhausted its own resources; the budget has long depended on
00:07:41Western subsidies. Thus, yesterday the European Commission sent
00:07:45Ukraine another financial tranche. These are revenues from frozen assets
00:07:48of the Central Bank of Russia, which Brussels continues to
00:07:52effectively steal.
00:07:54The owner of the White House clashed with the head of the Pentagon. According to
00:07:58the Washington Post, Trump demanded an explanation from Austin regarding
00:08:01the acute shortage of ammunition, which limits the capabilities of the United States
00:08:05for further escalation of the conflict with Iran. Meanwhile,
00:08:09over the past day, at least 10 ships passed through the Strait of Hormuz,
00:08:12CNN reports. In Tehran, it was stated that Iran and Oman
00:08:16have agreed on routes for commercial shipping, a temporary scheme
00:08:20for several months. Iran has faced the most
00:08:23difficult period since the Islamic Revolution,
00:08:26President Masoud Pezeshkian said. The head of state
00:08:29emphasized that the country withstood sanctions and military pressure thanks
00:08:33to the resilience of the people. The United States is still aimed
00:08:36at an agreement with Iran, Donald Trump
00:08:39said. In Hiroshima. from the victims
00:08:43of the nuclear bombing. 81 years ago, the United
00:08:46States wiped the city off the face of the earth. The world learned what
00:08:50an atomic bomb is. In recent years, official Tokyo
00:08:53has carefully kept silent about which country committed this monstrous
00:08:56crime. And today, the Prime Minister of Japan, the Mayor of Hiroshima, and
00:09:00also in his message, the UN Secretary General never mentioned
00:09:03the USA. However, Americans still have not apologized
00:09:06to the Japanese. Report by Sergey
00:09:09Mengazhev. The main burial.
00:09:33leaves nothing of people except a stain on the ground. The remaining shadow of a person sitting on the stone steps of a ruined bank is among the exhibits of the local
00:09:37museum.
00:09:40The mushroom cloud from the uranium
00:09:45bomb dropped from an American bomber at 8:15 AM on August 6,
00:09:481945, leveled half the city with
00:09:52a population of 400,000 people. Americans later
00:09:55meticulously recorded horrifying injuries, including those of Japanese
00:09:58children, as evidence of the power of American
00:10:01weapons. Hibakusha, as survivors of the explosion or those suffering from the consequences
00:10:05of radiation sickness are called in Japan, annually
00:10:09replenish the mournful list of victims.
00:10:12Bakuse. 8 years ago he died of cancer. He managed to survive the
00:10:16explosion, but the symptoms of radiation sickness haunted him throughout his life.
00:10:20His name is included in the official list of victims. I always
00:10:23come here to pray.
00:10:35The strokes of the memorial bell sound exactly at 8:15 AM, after which
00:10:39all those present bow their heads for a minute of silence, then
00:10:43the procedure refined over the years, the traditional declaration of peace from
00:10:46the Mayor of Hiroshima, in which he calls on all countries to abandon
00:10:50nuclear weapons and stop conflicts, but he does it
00:10:54in a peculiar way. The Hiroshima authorities in 2022 banned the Russian delegation,
00:10:57the only country, from participating in the ceremonies. For example, in the case
00:11:01of Israel or the USA, such principledness is not observed,
00:11:05and out of all current conflicts, the mayor mentioned again
00:11:08only the Ukrainian one. Instant destruction by atomic fire of tens
00:11:12of thousands of people, about 70 thousand in Hiroshima died immediately, and another
00:11:15same number by the end of 1945. The thirty-third President of the United States
00:11:19Harry Truman called it the greatest thing in history. He said this phrase on
00:11:23board the cruiser Augusta.
00:11:32Since then, not a single American leader has uttered even a hint of repentance or regret, and the current forty-seventh US President Donald Trump, when he visited Japan last year, called
00:11:36the bombing of Japanese cities a small conflict, after which
00:11:40the United States and Japan became the closest friends. All
00:11:44speeches by Japanese officials at memorial ceremonies are united
00:11:47by a delicate silence about who actually destroyed
00:11:51the civilian population of Japanese cities with nuclear explosions.
00:12:14I interpret this as an appeal to humanity. America dropped the atomic bomb on Japan, but Japan also
00:12:18bears responsibility for the fact that it came to war. So this whole
00:12:21situation was a common mistake.
00:12:26In 3 days, a similar memorial ceremony will be held in Nagasaki. The authorities
00:12:29of this city have once again started inviting Russia since last year, so
00:12:33a Russian ambassador is also expected among the foreign guests.
00:12:37Sergey Mengazhev, Alexey Pichko, Vesti East Asian Bureau, Hiroshima,
00:12:41Japan. Thunderstorms and squally winds,
00:12:44the Ministry of Emergency Situations warning about bad weather is valid in Leningrad, Kaluga,
00:12:47and Tula regions. An unfavorable forecast remains in
00:12:50Kabardino-Balkaria, in Nalchik, the consequences of the downpour are being eliminated.
00:13:25Our correspondent Pavel Marchukov followed the rescue operation, here's
00:13:29what he reported to the editorial office:
00:13:31A helicopter from the aviation rescue center delivered the surviving crew to
00:13:35Bodaibo. The first words after landing from the aircraft commander
00:13:38Alexander Nazarov and observer pilot Philipp Zykov were
00:13:41"thank you." First, they thanked their rescuers, and only
00:13:45then talked to us. During aerial monitoring of forest fires, visibility
00:13:48suddenly disappeared in the fog, the plane landed on a rock. These
00:13:52photos show that the impact was softened by trees. The tracker
00:13:55stopped sending a signal, so no one knew where to look for the crashed
00:13:58plane. The crew was immediately taken to the Bodaibo district hospital, where doctors
00:14:02examined the pilots. They did not have serious injuries. Pavel
00:14:06Marchukov, Eduard Chuzhiy, Vesti Irkutsk
00:14:08region. This is Vesti, here's what's next in our
00:14:12program. Steel main lines of Victory.

00:19:33On air, Vesti, we continue the release
00:19:43More than a thousand representatives of Russia and Kyrgyzstan gathered today at
00:19:47Issyk-Kul, where an interregional conference is taking place. Vladimir
00:19:50Putin has already addressed the participants. The President emphasized that Moscow and
00:19:53Bishkek closely cooperate in the humanitarian sphere, education,
00:19:57science, culture, and sports. Coordinated efforts of governments
00:20:01and businesses have made it possible to build a solid economic base for bilateral
00:20:04cooperation. The range of topics
00:20:08of the forum and conference is wide and diverse, this
00:20:12includes deepening trade, investment, and industrial cooperation,
00:20:16cooperation in agriculture, transport,
00:20:19digitalization, and tourism. Russia
00:20:23takes an active part in the development of Kyrgyzstan's
00:20:26energy infrastructure and the creation of new generation facilities. In
00:20:30the current year, we plan to launch into operation a solar
00:20:33power plant with a capacity of 300 megawatts in the east
00:20:38of the country, preparations are underway for the construction
00:20:40of a modern wind power plant
00:20:43in the same region. Russia and Kyrgyzstan are closely
00:20:47cooperating in the humanitarian
00:20:50sphere. We continue the construction in Kyrgyzstan of nine schools with
00:20:54instruction in Russian, and also the campus of the Slavic
00:20:58University in Bishkek. In general, Russia and
00:21:01Kyrgyzstan have the widest prospects for mutually beneficial
00:21:04cooperation. And I am convinced that acting
00:21:08further together as partners, Russian and Kyrgyz business
00:21:12circles and regions will continue to contribute
00:21:15in every possible way to ensuring the economic growth of our countries
00:21:18and the social well-being of our citizens.
00:21:21Steel from 1851,
00:21:24that is the official motto of the railway troops of the armed forces
00:21:28of Russia. Today, active representatives and veterans of these units
00:21:31celebrate a round date - 175 years since their
00:21:34creation. For the anniversary of this special branch of troops, the Ministry
00:21:38of Defense presented the project "Steel Main Lines of Victory," based on
00:21:42declassified documents from the central archive. The exhibition
00:21:45included the first orders and directives from the time of the Great Patriotic War, award
00:21:49materials, and... photographs of track schemes.
00:21:52Warrior railway workers have always participated in armed
00:21:56conflicts, providing forward positions with everything necessary:
00:21:59equipment, ammunition, and provisions. They make a great
00:22:02contribution to the special operation zone. How
00:22:05railway troops operate at the front today - military
00:22:09correspondent Grigory Vdovin found out.
00:22:12This is a crutch, this is a crutch hammer. They are used
00:22:16for assembling a sleeper grid.
00:22:20all 150 years, all 150 years, yes, come on,
00:22:23how many blows do you need to hit, well, usually three, but I won't hit it in three,
00:22:26to hit it in three blows, albeit with some
00:22:30nuances, it works out. The railway
00:22:34troops this year are celebrating, strictly speaking, not
00:22:37150, but 175 years. Everything is as always,
00:22:41rails-rails, sleepers-sleepers, and also in conditions
00:22:44of combat operations, the railway legacy from
00:22:47Ukraine remained quite...
00:23:00and worn out to such an extent that they cannot be used; nothing has been repaired here, effectively since the collapse of the Soviet Union, and it is precisely here
00:23:03that a comprehensive military, railway approach is very necessary.
00:23:07This path is being revived by the guys from the combined restoration
00:23:10railway battalion of the "Center" group of forces, and passing
00:23:14train drivers, of course, welcome the work of the military
00:23:18with a festive congratulatory honk.
00:23:23After all, they also cover their work. Here are shots of how
00:23:26the railway soldiers shoot down one of the most harmful enemy drones
00:23:30to date, the
00:23:32Hornet.
00:23:35In addition, sapper railwaymen daily check hundreds
00:23:38of kilometers of tracks and sidings in the SMO zone, using
00:23:42drones and, as they say, on foot in special equipment, because
00:23:45anything can appear here and in any way.
00:23:49And... In the most dangerous sections of the SMO,
00:23:52railway builders are already on stream, building network
00:23:55tunnels that turn death roads into corridors of life.
00:23:59Structurally, all this is not as simple as it seems, and here
00:24:03a thorough approach, almost two centuries of Russian
00:24:06engineering school with iron traditions, are needed more
00:24:10than ever.
00:24:14But their main task is, of course, the rails and to ensure that everything is on
00:24:17schedule, especially in the SMO zone. Despite everything,
00:24:21we can carry out track repairs of any
00:24:24complexity. How soon can a steam locomotive
00:24:28pass here? A steam locomotive can pass here in
00:24:31half an hour. Airplanes? No, no, only railways, that's our
00:24:35everything. Our interlocutor came to the railway troops after
00:24:38a civilian railway institute and a military department,
00:24:42and now, with the stars of a senior lieutenant, he successfully commands his
00:24:45platoon. Let's get
00:24:46connected!
00:24:52You have fire, the dive has begun, and you finish it
00:24:55here, understood? Well, of course, a railwayman is a warrior, he is first and foremost a warrior, he
00:24:59must be prepared for modern combat operations no
00:25:03less than for changing sleepers. We are preparing the first
00:25:06gift, after throwing the first grenade, we immediately go down to
