00:01:00Daily news channel Russia 24, we
00:01:03are live. Today is the Day
00:01:06of Agricultural and Processing
00:01:09Industry Workers. The agricultural sector is one of the most dynamic
00:01:12branches of modern economy. Russia has become
00:01:15a leading grain power. Our producers virtually
00:01:19fully supply the domestic market. Vladimir Putin
00:01:22congratulated agrarians on their professional holiday.
00:01:26Thanks to your energy and dedication.
00:02:00farms had to face a whole range
00:02:03of difficulties, they are caused by sanctions,
00:02:07infrastructure and export barriers, rising
00:02:10costs. The state will definitely continue
00:02:14to provide agrarians with necessary assistance, to assist
00:02:17both in solving operational issues related to fuel,
00:02:21transportation and sales of products, in providing
00:02:25with seed material, as well as generally continue
00:02:28to systematically support the agro-industrial sector, which faces
00:02:32large-scale tasks.
00:02:35Russian military took control of two settlements in Kharkiv
00:02:39region, Lukashovo and Labanovka. The cleansing
00:02:42of the Vovchansk cauldron continues, where the enemy lost about
00:02:4650 militants in a day. Fighters of the Center group in Dobropolye in
00:02:49the DPR liberated 82 buildings, disrupting
00:02:53attempts by the AFU to break out of the city. The Russian army
00:02:56continues to strike at Ukraine's military infrastructure.
00:03:00Vessels used to deliver military cargo to the AFU came under attack.
00:03:03More details on the situation from Vitaly
00:03:06Kormazin.
00:03:09Wow, it hit hard, everything was hit, they hit
00:03:12the power line. Near Dnepropetrovsk, reactive Gerani
00:03:15are cutting another power line, and there a new post office terminal
00:03:19was destroyed. Phew, maybe a second one. Explosions at warehouses in
00:03:22Ilyichevsk and Odessa, where after the strikes the lights went out all over the city, including
00:03:26at military enterprises and, what is most important, in the port. The Ministry of Defense
00:03:30of Russia reports that the exit of Ukraine to the sea remains under fire control.
00:03:33As a result of the strike at sea, a dry cargo vessel
00:03:36carrying military cargo to the port of Odessa was hit.
00:03:40In Odessa itself, the office of the Internet provider
00:03:44TNet was destroyed, on whose servers data used for military
00:03:47purposes was stored. In the capital, interceptors again shot down
00:03:51several missiles directly over residential buildings.
00:03:54And this is the consequence of the explosion in the restaurant "Desant", where, according to local
00:03:58public pages, people like to gather.
00:04:02In Kyiv, there is a transport collapse, the subway is de-energized, all due to
00:04:05hits on large distribution substations.
00:04:09If we do not take the Kyiv agglomeration, but take the entire territory of Ukraine, then
00:04:13the Russians want to cut off electricity supplies from the right bank
00:04:16war was nothing like to the left bank. They hit one support 30-40 times
00:04:20to completely bring it down. Military enterprises
00:04:23that produce drones and components for them are forced
00:04:27to reduce, or even completely stop production. According to local
00:04:30experts, even with round-the-clock work to
00:04:33restore infrastructure, it will not be possible to repair it quickly, and
00:04:36therefore, Kyiv residents, for example, are advised to leave the city,
00:04:39imagine that you will not have, imagine that you will not have water, heat, light for
00:04:43a week, for example, 2 months, this is a difficult task, a big
00:04:46problem, the same methodical approach in attacks on railways, every
00:04:50month Russia destroys about 40 locomotives,
00:04:53we clarify that in September we had already lost 553
00:04:57locomotives, which is more than 10% of the entire fleet.
00:05:01The basis of the attacking swarm is reactive Gerani of new
00:05:03generations, this is the first one that reached Lviv. And for
00:05:07Ukrainian air defense, this is still an insoluble
00:05:09problem.
00:05:12are tested at speeds up to 800 km/h, and when diving they
00:05:16can accelerate up to 100-100 km/h. We need to focus
00:05:20on radars, interceptors and turrets. Patriots are mentioned less
00:05:23and less, it seems no one plans to supply them to Kyiv in large
00:05:26quantities. The Telegraph newspaper comes out with the headline: Spain and
00:05:30Greece refuse to give Ukraine even expired
00:05:34shells. Ukrainian officials noted that in 4 years Kyiv
00:05:37received only 600 such missiles. Kyiv states that this
00:05:41is a reserve for 2 months, and therefore Russian attacks are becoming more effective. Strike on
00:05:44the infrastructure of the railway station Kryvyi Rih Main in Dnepropetrovsk
00:05:48region. Warehouse facilities in
00:05:52Nikolaev were damaged, where military property was stored. At night,
00:05:55port infrastructure facilities in Odessa were attacked, and this is a hit in the port of Nikolaev
00:05:59region.
00:06:01Burned down warehouses in Zaytsevo, Dnepropetrovsk region, where UAV components
00:06:05were stored. At the same time, explosions in
00:06:08Ivano-Frankivsk, Lutsk and Vinnytsia. The Rubicon unit is now hunting for... trucks
00:06:12and lorries that supply military
00:06:15cargo. At the same time, there is no escape from Russian drones on the
00:06:19combat contact line, armored vehicles with
00:06:22anti-drone nets and trucks with
00:06:24machine guns are burning.
00:06:28Russian UAV operators systematically track down ground
00:06:31robotic systems of the AFU and attack enemy drone
00:06:34control points. Here's what it looks like from inside
00:06:38a Ukrainian dugout, buzzing sound
00:06:40impact. The Russian Ministry of Defense reports on
00:06:44the advance of the assault troops of the 51st army in Dobropolye and on taking control
00:06:47of the settlements Lukashovo and Labanovka
00:06:50in the Kharkiv region. Here, units of the North group of forces
00:06:54are tightening the encirclement of a large group of the AFU and
00:06:57expanding the external zone
00:06:59of control.

00:07:04Vesti. Uralvagonzavod celebrates
00:07:07its ninetieth anniversary. Here they produce modernized
00:07:10T-72 BM. PT Spiridon and the main
00:07:14battle tank of the Russian army T-90M Proryv. About
00:07:17how the combat vehicles are tested in the report by Albert
00:07:21Musin.
00:07:25Shooting at the UVZ test range does not stop for a
00:07:28second. They shoot from morning
00:07:31till evening, from all types
00:07:34of weapons.
00:07:37Nikita, a weapons tester, monitors the aiming and automatic loading. He
00:07:41is a successor of one of the largest factory dynasties, whose total love for
00:07:45tanks accumulated 734 years. My aunt works in
00:07:48the armored museum, and all my free time in summer during
00:07:52holidays I spent in the armored museum, climbing on tanks. In
00:07:56another part of the testing ground, running loads are being applied simultaneously, there are many
00:07:59new machines, and without tests, the troops will not accept them, so there is their own
00:08:02conveyor, just in the spirit of UVZ, the main tank factory
00:08:06of the country.
00:08:09Uralvagonzavod celebrates its ninetieth anniversary at its production
00:08:13peak. One of its main creations is the deeply modernized
00:08:16T-72 B3M with modern aiming and firing
00:08:20systems, and drone protection. Another iconic product is the IMR -
00:08:24engineering obstacle clearing vehicles for clearing blockages in the path of troop
00:08:27columns. The heavily armed BMPT Spiridon was created to
00:08:31cover armored columns and raid enemy rear areas. And, of course,
00:08:34the main battle tank of the Russian army, the T-90M Proryv,
00:08:38capable of monitoring the situation 360° and autonomously
00:08:42hitting some targets. UVZ specialists are at the front,
00:08:45they help repair equipment along the entire line of combat contact,
00:08:49right here we have the same machine, that is, it has a crane, we also
00:08:52use it to lift the turret and change engines, it's hard
00:08:56work, yes, because we don't have a roof over our heads, sometimes we do it in
00:08:59dugouts, UVZ has been building its labor glory since
00:09:021931, the beginning of the construction of the giant plant, but already in
00:09:05'36 the first wagons were made, and this is considered the year
00:09:09of birth of Uralvagonzavod. In 1941,
00:09:1212 factories were evacuated to Tagil, including from Kharkov, and literally
00:09:162.5 months later the tank of victory went to the front,
00:09:19the legendary T-34. They know, their work
00:09:23helped achieve a new victory. Since then, tanks have become the hallmark of the factory
00:09:27alongside wagons. Since the evacuation of the Kharkov factory, the entire
00:09:31history of UVZ is a chronicle of true engineering audacity, where
00:09:34every bold experiment gradually turned into a revolution in
00:09:38world tank building. For example, the return to long guns
00:09:42or... the transition from rifled to smoothbore weapons and
00:09:45generally the appearance of the world's first anti-atomic tank, whose
00:09:48crew could survive and continue the battle, even in the event of a nuclear
00:09:52attack. The culmination of decades of hard work was the T-72 tank with
00:09:55layered armor and a 125 mm caliber gun. On
00:09:59the T-72 tank for the first time in Tagil history appeared
00:10:03an automatic loader. Later, another novelty made headlines worldwide,
00:10:07the most perfect at that time
00:10:08T-90.
00:10:11The factory also doesn't forget its origins, as it began its
00:10:15work in 1936 as a wagon enterprise for the needs of the actively
00:10:18growing Soviet industry.
00:10:21Here they assemble universal bogies for transporting coal, oil, containers
00:10:24with. For 90 years, the plant has been at the forefront of various engineering
00:10:27developments, each batch of combat vehicles receives new types of protection
00:10:31from shells and drones, sighting systems, new types of weapons
00:10:35in how to assemble all this into one formidable machine and the
00:10:39engineering genius of tank builders is manifested.

00:10:48The Russian Embassy in Saudi Arabia is clarifying whether there are citizens
00:10:52of our country among those affected by the attacks on
00:10:56Riyadh International Airport. According to
00:10:59the Kingdom's Civil Aviation Authority, 12 people died,
00:11:02more than 300 were injured. The airport suspended operations,
00:11:06passengers and staff were urgently evacuated.
00:11:09The Yemeni Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack. In
00:11:12response, the Arab coalition stated that it would not leave the
00:11:16attack on the airport in Riyadh unanswered. This missile strike
00:11:19was the second in 3 days. The Houthis call their actions a response to
00:11:23Saudi bombardments of Yemeni
00:11:25territory. On the Italian island of Lipore,
00:11:29road and utility workers are clearing
00:11:33streets after a powerful flood. It was caused by
00:11:36torrential rains. Dozens of residential buildings were flooded. Rescuers
00:11:40helped people get out of blocked premises.
00:11:43No one was injured, many cars were damaged. Due to
00:11:47debris and rubbish in the harbor, ship
00:11:50traffic is hampered.
00:11:53Bashkortostan celebrates Republic Day. The holiday will last 4
00:11:57days, and its program includes folk festivals, concerts, exhibitions
00:12:00and sports competitions. All the details from Murat
00:12:03Zaripov. The culmination of the sports season. Right
00:12:07now, participants are preparing for the main start of this year, the race for
00:12:11the Bashkortostan Republic Cup. In just a few seconds, the signal
00:12:14to start sounds.
00:12:18A fierce struggle continues right up to the very last meters of the distance, because
00:12:22at stake is not just a cup, but also the title of the best of the best.
00:12:27The last race of the racing season is invariably held on Republic
00:12:30Day, with honor to bear the name
00:12:33of Shaymuratovets, I swear,
00:12:36I swear. The ceremony of initiation into Shaymuratovets is also
00:12:40a tradition, although much more recent. Students
00:12:43of patriotic classes, named in honor of the Hero of Russia, commander of the famous
00:12:47112th Bashkir Cavalry Division named after Shaymuratov,
00:12:51solemnly take an oath: to be loyal to their people
00:12:55and to study well. Today in this formation there are 550
00:12:58schoolchildren from all over
00:12:59the republic.
00:13:03The Republic honors its heroes, including representatives of working
00:13:07professions, cultural figures and artists, scientists and
00:13:10, of course, veterans of the special military
00:13:12operation.
00:13:16It is precisely the support of servicemen, veterans of military actions and their families
00:13:19that is currently the main task of the region, which celebrates its main holiday
00:13:23with the slogan: "Everything for victory." It is very important to always
00:13:26prioritize, in this difficult period
00:13:30for our country, of course, everything for victory, this is the support
00:13:33of our warriors, this is ensuring the defense capability of our
00:13:37country, this is the coordinated work of the economy, the social
00:13:40sphere, at the same time I always say that our
00:13:44task is for the economy to work stably, because we
00:13:47must provide all social guarantees, all necessary payments. Dozens
00:13:51of public organizations and volunteer associations
00:13:55joined this work from the very first days of the special operation, and now veterans
00:13:58of military operations themselves are joining it, returning
00:14:01home after service. We try very hard to
00:14:05help the families
00:14:08of veterans.
00:14:10Now I am just getting into the work of providing
00:14:14assistance and support
00:14:17to veterans. A lot of humanitarian aid is sent
00:14:21from the republic, both timber and all sorts of...
00:14:30New social and infrastructure facilities,
00:14:34and updated public spaces opened simultaneously in several
00:14:37districts of the
00:14:40republic, became a real holiday gift for the residents.
00:14:43Murat Zaripov, Sergey Shilipin, Timfir Abzalov, Vesti: Republic of
00:14:46Bashkortostan.
00:15:14They are soldiers of fortune, wild geese, dogs of war, whatever
00:15:17they are called, in other words,
00:15:19mercenaries.
00:15:27And Poles, Frenchmen, Brazilians, there was everyone, everyone was there, where
00:15:31Poles, Frenchmen
00:15:33were
00:15:35and Negroes, we saw Negroes. Citizens of
00:15:39Great Britain, USA, Brazil,
00:15:42Colombia and Venezuela were also
00:15:45identified. They call the fighting in Ukraine a safari,
00:15:49hunting Russians in search of easy money. First of all, of course,
00:15:52we are talking about high fees, so high that
00:15:56it is even difficult to imagine. As a bonus: torture, robbery, looting:
00:16:00someone goes to earn money, someone with a real thirst to kill,
00:16:03there was no distinction, woman or not a woman, they shoot everyone
00:16:07indiscriminately.
00:16:11Among the local population there was an opinion that
00:16:15foreign mercenaries are distinguished by particular cruelty. Then I fired
00:16:18three short bursts from the automatic rifle, killing
00:16:22three people.
00:16:25I'm telling you about the Georgian Legion, now we
00:16:28will not take Russian soldiers prisoner
00:16:31under any circumstances.
00:16:42So you are sending your angry
00:16:45sons to us, there is a place for them in the fields of Russia,
00:16:49among graves that are not alien
00:16:50to them.
00:16:55Defenders, heroes
00:16:57of Ukraine.
00:17:19Who are they, why do they travel thousands of kilometers for a foreign war,
00:17:23what crimes do they commit and what does such bloody
00:17:26tourism turn into for them? Our new film is about foreign mercenaries,
00:17:30the most despised category of fighters, no one likes them,
00:17:33not even those on whose side they are.
00:18:38the participation of mercenaries in combat operations, a special investigative
00:18:41group was created for the investigation, it included the most
00:18:45experienced investigators of the central office of the department, interdepartmental
00:18:48interaction with operational and intelligence
00:18:51bodies was organized, criminalists and experts
00:18:55of the department were involved in the investigative work. The problem
00:18:57of mercenary activities and the formation of the Kyiv
00:19:01regime, it has existed for a very long time, it is a mistake to think that all this
00:19:04appeared only in 2022, for the first time...
00:19:07manifested itself in such, as they usually say, a full bloom, in this case
00:19:11an orange bloom, as part of the same Orange
00:19:14Revolution, when under the guise of protesters
00:19:18came out precisely recruited, well-trained,
00:19:21then the events of 2013 and 2014
00:19:24, of course, showed
00:19:27that these were no longer isolated cases and
00:19:31not even dozens, or even
00:19:34hundreds. These people were trained on the territory of countries,
00:19:37primarily such as Poland and, of course,
00:19:41the Baltic countries. They were trained there in
00:19:44special camps, trained for street fighting.
00:19:48They were all surprised later when they realized where they had ended up. The real
00:19:53that, but I thank my God that
00:19:57for the grenade that fell on me there, it would have turned me into
00:20:01shit, but thank God it only injured
00:20:04my arm. And...
00:20:13yesterday they tried to come to us, but they
00:20:16didn't quite succeed. What prevented
00:20:19him from staying home? We are working, brothers,
00:20:22at best, mercenaries return home in an urn with ashes, more often bodies
00:20:26or what is left of them rest in damp earth, however there is another
00:20:30option.
00:20:30of
00:22:50CIS countries, Armenia, Georgia,
00:22:54Uzbekistan,
00:22:56yes, quite a large geography, quite
00:23:00extensive, so to speak, a large number
00:23:03of participants are involved in this conflict, an investigator
00:23:07of the Main Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia, together with his colleagues, has been collecting evidence
00:23:10of crimes committed by Ukrainian militants and their
00:23:14foreign accomplices for several months. The number of
00:23:17individuals who took part in the territory
00:23:21of the region, for which we have already collected
00:23:24evidence, and sent these criminal cases to court, is
00:23:2828. The region was liberated more than a year ago, but the work
00:23:31of investigators did not stop, the main task is to identify
00:23:35and punish those involved in the attack, when
00:23:38any war
00:23:41criminal is detained, yes, who committed any
00:23:45crimes, they all always deny their involvement
00:23:49in the commission. As an excuse for themselves, they say
00:23:52that they held positions as cooks, that they
00:23:55held positions in the orchestra,
00:23:58yes, they even say that, even in the rear
00:24:02they were shuffling papers.
00:24:59In fact, such a reaction from people is quite understandable, this is not
00:25:02the first time we have worked in Kursk, based on experience we can say
00:25:06that it is very difficult for people to return to
00:25:09those memories, to that pain and relive it again
00:25:13and again, because many have of course lost
00:25:16everything, home, shelter, relatives.
00:25:20loved ones, and talking about it on camera,
00:25:23remembering it again, reliving that pain, picking at wounds
00:25:27that have not yet healed completely,
00:25:30they certainly don't want to do that again, therefore not everyone is ready
00:25:34to communicate on camera
00:25:36and share their memories.
00:25:39Facts, namely,
00:25:43murders, violence, committed against
00:25:46local residents, who
00:25:50were absolutely peaceful residents, not
00:25:53involved in the conflict,
00:25:56who were not military personnel, that
00:26:00is... those people whose interests
00:26:04were protected not only by Russian norms, but also by
00:26:08international norms, which
00:26:10prohibit the use of any force against peaceful
00:26:14civilians.
00:26:21Hundreds of Kursk residents are recognized as victims, the investigation is still
00:26:24questioning witnesses at the crime scene, that is, at their
00:26:27homes. This is Viktor Klyuev from the village of Kazachya Loknya, accustomed to living, as
00:26:31they say, on the land. He takes care of the garden and livestock, so he and his
00:26:35wife ended up in occupation for a long 7 months, it was a pity to abandon
00:26:38the farm, and we had guys there, well, maybe two people, we didn't
00:26:42know, we only saw it later, when
00:26:45they climbed onto the school roof, broke it
00:26:49and installed a machine gun, it turned out, well, we only
00:26:52understood this later, and the machine gun, well, they install a machine gun there, swear,
00:26:55our guys there started climbing on them yelling, screaming there, only a machine gun
00:26:59burst, well, at that time they were being
00:27:02shot because they were climbing on them, but I understood that
00:27:06well, these were not the Ukrainians themselves, this was the first mercenary
00:27:09brigade that came, they are real
00:27:12animals.
00:27:21You saw, these are bullet holes, see, those
00:27:24who climbed, who tried to leave, were also shot in
00:27:27the car, approximately, they try to run away in cars, they are shot, well, mercenaries, I
00:27:31would say, as
