00:00:33Economic news time: Belgian authorities sided with Russia
00:00:36in one of the disputes over frozen
00:00:39assets. Kirill, has there really been a turnaround?
00:00:42Georgy, for now this is just a precedent, but it could serve as an impetus for new
00:00:46lawsuits.
00:00:49The Belgian Council of State recognized as illegal the Treasury's refusal in one of the cases
00:00:52to unblock Russian assets, according to local legal
00:00:56firms, it annulled the decision of July 15, 200.
00:01:02to reject the request of BCS Bank to unfreeze
00:01:04funds. Russian lawyers, however, say that this does not automatically mean
00:01:08unblocking, but now, at least, a repeated
00:01:11petition can be filed. Following the proceedings, an important
00:01:14precedent was recorded: the decree of the Minister of Finance of December
00:01:162023, on delegating powers to the Treasury
00:01:20is recognized as illegal and subject to cancellation in connection with the constitution
00:01:24of Belgium. The Bank of Russia included cryptocurrencies in
00:01:27the list of risks for the domestic financial system.
00:01:38The Central Bank reminds that cryptocurrencies are anonymous and
00:01:41extraterritorial, which creates risks of both loss
00:01:44of investments and their use for illegal
00:01:47purposes. The regulator also indicates that on a global
00:01:50scale, there is no systematic approach to reducing these
00:01:54risks. US President Donald Trump and the head
00:01:58of Open AI secretly discussed what is happening in the field of artificial
00:02:01intelligence, after which they publicly expressed diametrically
00:02:05opposite positions, as reported by the American press, the meeting was requested
00:02:08by Sam Altman in the hope of urging the president to be cautious on this
00:02:12issue, but he remained unyielding, stating on his social networks that
00:02:15the assertion that neural networks will take over the world is
00:02:19as much a scam as global warming or the scandal of
00:02:22Russian interference in elections. Trump believes that technology should
00:02:26develop without restrictions to maintain leadership in the race with...
00:02:50The development of artificial intelligence is crucial for
00:02:53the well-being of all humanity. All parties
00:02:56must unite efforts to promote open
00:03:00development of artificial intelligence for the benefit of all.
00:03:03Fanning fear, confrontation and unfair competition will only
00:03:07undermine the process of global governance in this area, which
00:03:11is not in anyone's
00:03:12interests.
00:03:15Gold became the most profitable asset in the Russian financial market in August. This
00:03:19is stated in the materials of the Central Bank. The profitability of investments in precious metals
00:03:22increased by more than 17%. In addition,
00:03:25deposits denominated in foreign currency also showed high profits. In general, over
00:03:29the last months, as noted
00:03:32in the review, gold had the highest profitability, as well as
00:03:35ruble money market instruments, deposits and ruble corporate
00:03:39bonds. Official exchange rates for today: dollar
00:03:4384 rubles 33 kopecks, euro 97.76 and
00:03:46yuan 12 rubles 53
00:03:49kopecks. Georgy, that's all for the economy at this minute. Kirill, thank you, Kirill Khovrin was
00:03:52with us and talked about how Russian assets can be unfrozen, at least
00:03:56in Belgium and certainly not now, well, let's move on to other topics. News from
00:04:00special operations: details of the operation of Russian military personnel in the
00:04:04Kharkiv direction, where more than 1,500 Ukrainian
00:04:07militants were surrounded, became known. All details are with
00:04:10Anton Potkovenko.
00:04:12Потковенко.
00:04:15As if slicing enemy forces, layer by
00:04:18layer, the soldiers of the North troop group are taking one
00:04:21village after another in the Reznyakovskiy cauldron
00:04:24of the Kharkiv region. For example, they liberated
00:04:28Shirokoye, fresh footage from the
00:04:30defense. First, the enemy was attacked by Russian
00:04:33drones, which are capable of finding even the hidden
00:04:36AFU weapons in dugouts. It would seem that only one barrel is visible,
00:04:40but for an attentive drone operator, this is quite
00:04:43enough. Simultaneously, enemy fortifications are being destroyed by our
00:04:47howitzers, field artillery. The northerners
00:04:51are as if shredding the cauldron, or rather the AFU group of
00:04:541700 or so militants who are trapped
00:04:58in encirclement. Here is the village of Shirokoye, it is
00:05:021.5 kilometers from -
00:05:05the village of Ozernoye, the liberation of which became known on September 9,
00:05:09and you see, it's like such protrusions of a kind...
00:05:12such notches are formed, in this way
00:05:15our troops are gradually reducing the area of the cauldron,
00:05:18accurately, methodically, increasing pressure on
00:05:22different sections, in the center is the village of
00:05:25Reznikovo, not much is left until it, if
00:05:28you look at the map, the situation in the cauldron really resembles
00:05:32cutting a cake: the northerners are liberating one
00:05:35settlement after another, thereby as if cutting the AFU group into
00:05:39small pockets of resistance inside the encirclement. Active
00:05:43participation in this is taken by aviation, strike drones and
00:05:45artillery. Well, this was still gathered during World War II,
00:05:49the cauldron is divided into parts, segments, destroyed in
00:05:52parts, until it is completely destroyed. The encircled
00:05:56AFU personnel have equipment, but ammunition and food, as
00:05:59you understand, no one delivers to them, so the enemy's situation is worsening with
00:06:02each day. And if someone tries to break through, like, for example,
00:06:06this pickup truck with militants, then they have zero chances. The car
00:06:10will remain on the forest road, a heap of molten
00:06:13metal. Separate groups try to escape, contrary to
00:06:17the orders of the AFU command, but all of them
00:06:20usually blow up on mines, or are destroyed by the FPV crews
00:06:23of the northerners. It's not summer now, soon there will be no foliage,
00:06:27and you won't be able to hide under the trees from the ubiquitous drones. With
00:06:30the onset of autumn, the enemy will practically lose the ability to
00:06:34infiltrate through forest belts.
00:06:36Ukrainian commanders inside the cauldron understand this and are looking for ways
00:06:40out, however, in this situation. there is one way: surrender,
00:06:43saving their lives and the lives of their subordinates, and they
00:06:47actively use FABs with planning and correction modules,
00:06:51of various weights from 250 to
00:06:541500 kg, very
00:06:57qualitatively, very effectively, tankers work as
00:07:01mobile artillery and
00:07:04naturally, regular systemic drone launches
00:07:07help. Another success of the Northerners in the Kharkiv direction
00:07:11indirectly.
00:08:19And what will happen after the liquidation of militants in the encirclement in the Kharkiv
00:08:23region? The tactical situation may change significantly,
00:08:27because a path opens up, if not immediately to Kharkiv, then at least
00:08:30to Chuhuiv, this is an industrial center, there is energy there,
00:08:34there is the enemy's defense industry, it's currently being hit very hard,
00:08:37but the main thing is that the AFU is being shredded in the cauldron
00:08:41around the cauldron. In the Kharkiv region, our soldiers are expanding
00:08:45that very buffer zone, which will not allow Kyiv
00:08:48terrorists to reach our border area. Those who
00:08:51are currently surrounded, it's definitely not about that right now.
00:13:04In the Kharkiv region, where approximately 1,500 Ukrainian
00:13:08militants remain surrounded, our military is systematically striking at AFU fortifications. Assault detachments
00:13:12and tanks of the Northern Group of Forces are working
00:13:15on the enemy.
00:13:18Europe is shocked by Kyiv's new demands, writes the Washington Post.
00:13:22Ukraine requested another 27 from the EU. The publication
00:13:25notes that European officials naively believed that by sending
00:13:29100 billion euros earlier, they had covered all the needs of the Ukrainian budget
00:13:32for at least 2 years.
00:13:35An oil tanker was blown up by mines in the Strait of Hormuz, Iran reports.
00:13:39The US does not confirm this information. The IRGC once again
00:13:43reminded that there will be no negotiations until Washington fulfills Tehran's
00:13:46conditions and announced a new attack by American drones on
00:13:50fishing vessels off the coast of the Islamic
00:13:52Republic.
00:13:55Hainan is flooded after a powerful downpour, more than
00:13:5840,000 people have been urgently evacuated, transport is not running in the island's
00:14:02cities, enterprises have stopped,
00:14:04schools are closed.
00:14:09New explosions in Kyiv and the Kharkiv region, this is information from Ukrainian
00:14:13media, what targets were hit is not specified, the alarm was announced
00:14:16several times. The signal sounded in the Dnipropetrovsk, Poltava, Sumy and
00:14:20other regions. Well, it is worth noting that our military precisely
00:14:24removes from... only targets related to the AFU. The
00:14:27Ministry of Defense has repeatedly stated earlier that this is a response to Kyiv's terrorist attacks
00:14:31on civilian targets in Russian
00:14:33territory.
00:14:36In the special operation zone on the approaches to Dobropolye, our drones
00:14:39destroyed the transport logistics of Ukrainian formations. They systematically
00:14:43hit enemy equipment, along roads and forest paths
00:14:47are manned by crews of strike drones of the
00:14:50Center group. Meanwhile, high-power devices, Lightning 2,
00:14:53destroy.
00:15:16Units of the Southern Grouping are actively advancing in the direction
00:15:19of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. Our drones are attacking AFU equipment
00:15:23and destroying enemy logistics chains, disrupting
00:15:27the delivery of ammunition to enemy positions. Igor Pikhanov on combat
00:15:31work.
00:15:33Soldiers of the Southern Grouping of Forces are preparing a reconnaissance
00:15:36drone for operation. The UAV crew is observing the front
00:15:39line, there are many more birds, reconnaissance practically
00:15:43never leaves the field, one bird whistles, it
00:15:46arrives, another replaces it, we always have eyes there. The footage shows
00:15:50the suburbs of Druzhkivka, along this road AFU militants are trying to deliver
00:15:53reinforcements and ammunition to the front, but the enemy will not
00:15:56break through. The road is under the fire control of our
00:15:59UAVs. We know the routes how they move. We have a constant
00:16:03broadcast. We see how infantry or equipment moves. If there is
00:16:06still movement there, we destroy them, everything, with birds,
00:16:10long-range artillery, on the approaches here, we try to destroy, respectively, we
00:16:13quietly creep into Novosyolovka. Scouts found a new target for our
00:16:17UAVs, the militants themselves gave themselves away, saboteurs
00:16:20dug in the private sector, disguised as civilians,
00:16:24often from such points there are shellings of settlements,
00:16:27for the destruction of the target, strike wings of lightning
00:16:31were launched into the air, mainly the enemy hides in
00:16:34houses, in cellars, basements, reconnaissance is carried out.
00:16:38Thorough reconnaissance has already been carried out, making sure
00:16:42that it is the enemy, not civilians, by external
00:16:46signs, weapons, ammunition,
00:16:49communication nodes, radio stations are subjected to
00:16:52fire damage. The drone's speed is more than 100
00:16:55km/h, each is equipped with an anti-tank mine, this is how
00:16:59all attempts by the enemy to stop the advance
00:17:02of our units end. they are already trying with all their might
00:17:06to hold it, but... the outcome is already clear
00:17:09to everyone, the enemy pushed back,
00:17:12back, already
00:17:15accordingly, the flight points moved back,
00:17:19the artillery moved back, thereby
00:17:23it became easier for our people in the
00:17:26rear. Under the cover of unmanned systems, storm
00:17:30units advanced and took advantageous positions.
00:17:33The fighters say that in this sector of the front without rotation and reinforcement, the enemy
00:17:37found itself in a difficult situation and their
00:17:41group was defeated, roughly speaking, that's
00:17:44why from the defeated group one
00:17:48surrendered, you see what kind of fighters they have there,
00:17:51they grabbed them from the street there, such
00:17:54a mood is not very good, well, naturally, the morale
00:17:57is the same, every day our mobile fire groups and interceptor drones
00:18:01shoot down hundreds of enemy drones, this kamikaze
00:18:05from America...
00:18:26Units of the Southern Group of Forces are increasing pressure on the enemy,
00:18:29destroying AFU forces both at the front and deep in its
00:18:33rear, gradually advancing towards the Sloviansk-Kramatorsk
00:18:36agglomeration.
00:18:44The office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine stated that they were not preparing to bring
00:18:47corruption charges against the head of NABU, now former
00:18:51Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko claims that the charges were
00:18:54filed and were allegedly withdrawn under pressure. Allegedly,
00:18:58intermediaries from NABU demanded not to process the documents. As
00:19:01evidence, he posted photos of tracking details. According to
00:19:04him, the notification was issued and sent to the address.
00:19:46New installations have been put into operation at Russian oil refineries, which has already allowed
00:19:49to increase the volume of petroleum product output. This was discussed
00:19:53at a meeting on the situation in the fuel market, which was held by Deputy Prime Minister
00:19:57Alexander Novak. Gasoline and diesel, as stated in the Cabinet of
00:20:00Ministers' message, are delivered to the regions within the established
00:20:02timeframe. The authorities continue to manually adjust
00:20:06supplies where local disruptions occur. It was instructed
00:20:09to intensify efforts to control pricing in the small wholesale
00:20:13segment of the fuel market.
00:20:16The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is already at its lowest since November
00:20:191982. In a week, the indicator dropped to
00:20:23285 million barrels. Such data is provided by
00:20:26the US Department of Energy. Donald Trump promised to fill the
00:20:30oil storage, but as a result, brought the reserves to a
00:20:33lower point than Joe Biden, whom he criticized.
00:20:37The task is complicated by the situation in the global hydrocarbon
00:20:40market. According to Saudi officials,
00:20:43the restoration of the key East-West oil pipeline, destroyed
00:20:47by pro-Iranian drones, successful repair
00:20:50does not guarantee the restoration of exports, the pipeline leads to the export terminal of the port
00:20:54of Yanbu on the Red Sea, the entrance to which is now controlled by the Houthis.
