00:00:00a passenger bus in Kherson
00:00:02region, but despite this, despite the attacks in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, despite everything, the regions are coping with all
00:00:09difficulties now simply
00:00:12heroically, people are not afraid, people go to
00:00:15the polls, election commission employees ensure full
00:00:18transparency and fairness of the process. On the progress of
00:00:21voting in Donbas, Novorossiya and in the border regions. Maxim
00:00:25Krosotkin.
00:00:35City of Military Glory Kursk. These people before voting, are happy
00:00:39to hear the voice of everyone they have lived side by side with. These are residents
00:00:42of the border regions of the oblast who were forced to leave their homes.
00:00:46Elections are a rare moment when they all gather
00:00:49together. Of course, everyone is nostalgic for that time, because we
00:00:53lived as such a small family. And our elections were
00:00:56special. Well, I see you are meeting
00:01:00now... Of course, we are not going anywhere from each other,
00:01:04the villages are all close, we cannot grow apart, although
00:01:07from different regions, but we all wanted
00:01:10to add, different regions, the pain is the same
00:01:14for everyone, so, probably, this unites us, here they
00:01:17remember walking by the Seim River in Glushkovo, trips to neighboring
00:01:20Korenevo, the taste of Sudzhansky milk, I see they are throwing away
00:01:24photos of Sudzhansky butter, cottage cheese,
00:01:27milk, here working as a director. in school, this
00:01:30meat, this milk we only from yesterday, well, yes, it was tasty
00:01:34there, here, remembering home, many cannot
00:01:38hold back tears, not much time has passed since the liberation of the Kursk
00:01:41region, a little more than a year, so they go to vote for the
00:01:45party and candidate they believe in, and with whom they will raise their small
00:01:49homeland, I want to get to the homeland, I cannot
00:01:52speak,
00:01:59there is hope. we hope that we
00:02:02will return
00:02:06and will restore, slowly,
00:02:09there are children, there is support, everything will
00:02:12be fine. Alexandra Pashchenko - a resident of Sudzha, in August
00:02:16of the 24th, she did not manage to evacuate from
00:02:19the city with everyone, spent 7 months in occupation, her house
00:02:23was destroyed, but her confidence in the future is stronger than concrete, that's why she
00:02:26came to the elections. Well, who will do all this?
00:02:31"Hope is only on them, on those whom we
00:02:34choose, one must definitely go to
00:02:36the elections, cast one's vote for the best. In Kursk itself, it is not always calm, drones
00:02:40of the Ukrainian Armed Forces periodically
00:02:44appear, the work of air defense is heard, but local residents are not deterred by the enemy's attempts to intimidate
00:02:48them from their right to choose. Well, why should this
00:02:51scare me, I don't know, not many are flying here anymore, like they
00:02:55flew over
00:02:56Sudzha.
00:03:00Even if they did fly, you still have to
00:03:02go, you still have to go. This
00:03:06is the mood now in all border regions. This is what
00:03:09the school in the frontline village of Zaporozhye region looks like, where Ukrainian
00:03:13militants launched an attack this morning. An election polling station
00:03:16was located there. Only thanks to the fact that early voting took place here,
00:03:20it was no longer open and no one was injured. Those who are currently conducting
00:03:23elections are performing real feats, being under
00:03:27the militants' sights. To the house of Elena Astanina.
00:03:35A polling station will be named after her, and Vladimir Putin
00:03:38presented her with the Order of Courage posthumously. The Ukrainian
00:03:42elite is not in a hurry to hold elections, as is known, but
00:03:45they are trying to hinder us. You know that the
00:03:48Kyiv regime committed another
00:03:51crime the other day, launching an attack on a residential building, on the chairperson
00:03:55of the precinct election commission in the village of Oktyabrskoye
00:03:58of Zaporozhye region.
00:04:01The chairperson of the commission, Elena
00:04:04Ostanina, unfortunately, died. Today I
00:04:08signed a decree
00:04:10awarding her posthumously the Order of Courage. Today
00:04:14near Kherson, the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked a civilian bus. This is not
00:04:17accidental, it is an attempt to sow fear, to stay home, not to go to
00:04:21the elections. Two people died there, including a member of the precinct
00:04:24election commission, Olga Demyanenko. Nasty,
00:04:28cowardly. Bandera,
00:04:30freaks in diapers,
00:04:34who are afraid to fight like men, for real,
00:04:38therefore
00:04:42they hunt our peaceful people, mostly
00:04:45women and
00:04:46children,
00:04:50I think shame will fall on their heads, each of them
00:04:53will be found. Due to damaged
00:04:56power lines, some polling stations, for example, in the LPR, worked
00:05:00on generators and still did not close. The city of
00:05:03Energodar fully voted under constant shelling. This was stated by the
00:05:07regional election commission. Nuclear specialists at the same time
00:05:10maintained the operation of the Zaporozhye NPP. The strikes,
00:05:13their frequency, bitterness,
00:05:17and such, well, as if targetedness, as it were,
00:05:20maliciousness, they increased, obviously, this was aimed, among
00:05:24other things, at the desire to disrupt the elections, so
00:05:27the last week was characterized by even more
00:05:30shelling, but
00:05:34the effect is exactly the opposite, in Zaporozhye, Kherson regions
00:05:38LPR and DPR, deputies of the State Duma are elected for the first time, the turnout
00:05:41here... laws
00:06:13that need to be adjusted to today, and
00:06:17accordingly, this is the fate of people, this is the fate of our country, the fate of our
00:06:21region. Crimea, Sevastopol are choosing their future. In all new and
00:06:24border regions, special voting conditions,
00:06:28early voting at home or at mobile points in courtyards, helped
00:06:31avoid large crowds of people at polling stations,
00:06:35security at elections here is paramount. This is one of the features
00:06:39of voting in border regions, which has already become commonplace. At the entrance
00:06:43to each school where polling stations are open,
00:06:46there are always such shelters made of sandbags. In the
00:06:50event of an extreme case, for example, damage to the building during an attack,
00:06:53reserve polling stations have been prepared. There is a duplicate
00:06:57for every polling place, everywhere there is its own shelter in case
00:07:01of a missile threat, but in this we are the only visitors.
00:07:05We have a shelter by the signs, you can easily find it, this
00:07:08hall is a recessed room, a large area together.
00:07:42a date he trusts, otherwise from the authorities, from
00:07:45the state, it will be strange for a person to demand
00:07:49anything, because he himself did not participate in the formation of this government,
00:07:53this does not mean that tomorrow he will lose some opportunity to demand something, no,
00:07:57of course, but it just seems to me that it is not entirely fair, if you ask from
00:08:00others, then you must ask from yourself. During the days of early
00:08:04voting, from Tuesday to Thursday, a quarter of the voters
00:08:07in the Kursk region came to the polling stations, among the first, their choice was made
00:08:11by residents, over 16
00:08:43thousand, the government allocated money for almost 400 more,
00:08:47the pensioners are sure that only with strong and competent local authorities
00:08:50can the problem of forced migrants be solved, so why not
00:08:54go to the elections? Why is it important, well, how can it not
00:08:57be important, what if no one will
00:09:01rule us, nothing, how can it not be important, we
00:09:04will remain under some yoke,
00:09:08we will become slaves, under someone, someone from... no,
00:09:15we must
00:09:15go,
00:09:19we must go vote, well, for those who for various reasons cannot get to the polling stations,
00:09:22voting comes home, sometimes in a not entirely ordinary
00:09:25way. For a Russian person, bad roads have never been
00:09:29an obstacle, especially in such an important event as
00:09:32elections. Now we are going to distribute ballots in
00:09:36hard-to-reach settlements of the Kursk
00:09:39region, and the most important thing on such a trip is what? To protect
00:09:43the ballot. The commission on a motoblock comes to Valentina
00:09:46Ilyina, due to her advanced age, she rarely leaves
00:09:49home. But she knows who to vote for, for a person who
00:09:53will give way to the young, and will not forget about pensioners. I
00:09:56want to see an executive,
00:09:59truly, valuing, precisely
00:10:03here mostly live pensioners,
00:10:06namely respect for old age,
00:10:09this is the most important thing in a person. who
00:10:12understands his parents,
00:10:16understands other people, helps them, so that they
00:10:19are precisely here, so that they are
00:10:22better off, well, then to the members of the election commission.
00:10:39We know all the local residents, because we ourselves
00:10:42are local residents, and we try to reach
00:10:46every person, and he must
00:10:49vote, the elections in the border region did not go unnoticed by international
00:10:53observers, representatives.
00:11:25can be an example to follow, as they are capable,
00:11:28despite all difficulties of voting, voting
00:11:30openly and honestly, regardless of political processes in
00:11:34the country and in any weather. In the border region, the expansion of
00:11:38the security zone continues, so that enemy drones and rockets do not threaten
00:11:41civilians. This is also the Kursk region, here volunteers of the
00:11:44Bars-Kursk detachment, the "North" group of forces, monitor
00:11:48the cleanliness of the sky. Where this mobile fire group is on duty, it is rarely
00:11:52quiet, but in the city without them it would be... more alarming, because
00:11:56the enemy intentionally tries to create panic among the population with terrorist
00:11:59attacks. In the summer of this year, they
00:12:02were specifically laying out routes, going, we call it a "little train," that is, one after
00:12:06another, one drone flew, saw that our crews were there, it immediately
00:12:10changed to another route, now they come in threes
00:12:13and every 2-3 months they change this tactic,
00:12:16the third, to our happiness, they have not yet
00:12:19come up with, well, and in general now all military operations
00:12:23are like cats and mice, that is, they are somewhere there somehow, we are trying to
00:12:26understand their logic, we didn't have to wait
00:12:29long, another enemy wing in the sky, the
00:12:33drone never reached
00:12:35the populated area.
00:12:38Maxim Krasotkin, Alexey Agrenich, Kirill Kovalev, Vlada Gritsenko, Evgeny Ilyin,
00:12:42the program "Main."
00:12:45And in the special operation zone, the Russian army continued to advance
00:12:49throughout the week, squeezing the cauldron in the Kharkiv
00:12:52region. There, in the area of Volchansk. several
00:12:55times
00:12:59during the week, he tried to come to the aid of his militants trapped
00:13:03in the cauldron, but all attempts to do so
00:13:06failed, ours, on the contrary, are advancing
00:13:08forward. According to the Ministry of Defense, this week, five populated
00:13:12areas were liberated in the Kharkiv region, including one of the
00:13:15largest in this area, Olkhovatka. Pushing back
00:13:19the enemy, our units are evacuating the local
00:13:22population from the combat zone, people who...
00:14:27through Zolotoy Kolodez pass roads that connect
00:14:30Dobropillya with supply routes towards Konstantinovka and
00:14:34Druzhkovka, and Verolyubovka is the southern underbelly
00:14:37of Druzhkovka. Southerners now have to establish control over
00:14:41the settlements of Osykovo and Kondratovka. In total, this
00:14:45week, our units in different directions of the front
00:14:48liberated 15 populated areas. Throughout the week,
00:14:51aerial attacks continued on enemy targets. Several
00:14:55locomotives, refueling stations, warehouses and workshops for
00:14:59assembling UAVs were hit. In Black Sea ports, six
00:15:03dry cargo ships, a ferry and two oil tankers were hit. In
00:15:06Zaporozhye, a strike was carried out on the Zaporizhstal plant,
00:15:10one of the largest producers of rolled metal in
00:15:13Ukraine. It was used, among other things, for the construction of defensive
00:15:17structures. Well, and as the Financial Times writes. As a result
00:15:20of Russian strikes, Ukraine has already lost
00:15:24its...
00:15:26According to the newspaper, ballistic attacks put out of
00:15:29action three of the country's largest enterprises in Zaporozhye and
00:15:33Dnepropetrovsk regions. In total, they provided
00:15:3690%.
00:16:03And tonight, precise strikes in Kyiv hit
00:16:06enterprises. providing
00:16:11storage,
00:16:17processing and transmission of intelligence data to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In the Kyiv
00:16:21region, a warehouse of the company Firepoint was hit, in the port
00:16:24of Odessa, another dry cargo ship with military
00:16:27cargo. In the Odessa region, a strike was carried out on the logistics
00:16:30center "Nova Poshta," which was used for storing
00:16:34and distributing military cargo, delivered.
00:17:38and for us this concept is not just motivation, so to speak,
00:17:42such a desired day, including, as if it were a holiday. I became a religious person quite
00:17:45recently, after I saw some miracle precisely on
00:17:49the front, I came under enemy mortar
00:17:52shelling, I lost consciousness for a moment
00:17:54and at that very moment I saw an angel,
00:17:58who with one wing embraces my wife,
00:18:01and with the other, embraces my son, I
00:18:05felt as if... I am needed, I am needed here, I am needed
00:18:09now, I am needed,
00:18:11I must do something for victory, and
00:18:14moreover, this inner strength,
00:18:17which this vision, the image I
00:18:21saw, gave, made me get up and not
00:18:24only, being wounded, get out myself, but also help other
00:18:28people. The relics were touched by servicemen of the
00:18:31Southern Group of Forces, serving in assault
00:18:34units, for them it was especially important. as the very
00:18:38next day after this they were going to perform a combat
00:18:41mission in the group's area of responsibility. A Moleben
00:18:45was served in one of the churches that was built by the servicemen
00:18:48themselves. When I was wounded, I
00:18:52went to retreat, that day the sky was dirty,
00:18:55well, there were a lot of drones, and we were retreating
00:18:59through the forest belt. After this forest belt there was an open space of about 2
00:19:02km, and at that very moment I directly
00:19:05asked God.
00:19:08Help, and so that you understand, two minutes later it started
00:19:11raining, and under this rain drones do not
00:19:15fly, and I successfully got out of there, only thanks to
00:19:18the Lord, there are no unbelieving warriors, everyone goes for
00:19:21a blessing, everyone goes for prayers, a moleben
00:19:25also took place in the units of the "East"
00:19:27group of forces, glory to you, our God, glory
00:19:30to you, glory to you, glory
00:19:34to you,
00:19:39This week, the Investigative Committee showed orders and medals stolen
00:19:42by Ukrainian servicemen from residents whose homes were in the SMO zone.
00:19:46Ukrainian marauders know that orders and medals on the black market are
00:19:50hard currency that only grows in
00:19:53price every year, and for the sake of easy money they are ready for any
00:19:56crime. For the liberation of Warsaw,
00:20:00there is also a medal for victory over
00:20:04Japan, for the capture of Berlin.
00:20:09for the defense of Leningrad,
00:20:12for the capture of Vienna. We had
00:20:15a case when a veteran of the Great
00:20:18Patriotic War was killed, a Ukrainian soldier,
00:20:22who was subsequently also killed during his retreat,
00:20:25yes, accordingly, the
00:20:29awards of this
00:20:31veteran were found, whom they apparently killed while they were there
00:20:35and holding the defense. Each award has a number, by
00:20:39which, referring to archival data, one can find the owner of the award and his
00:20:43relatives. The Investigative Committee collects this data to
00:20:46then return the awards to their rightful owners.
00:20:50This week, the Minister of Defense awarded the commander of the Corvette
00:20:53"Soobrazitelny" for actions that helped prevent a provocation with
00:20:57a Danish Air Force helicopter. As it became known, the incident
00:21:01occurred on September 14. Our Corvette, during
00:21:04the performance of its tasks in the neutral waters of the Baltic
00:21:07Sea, detected an air target, which was
00:21:09identified as a helicopter of the Danish
00:21:13Air Force. The aircraft followed a course of convergence with
00:21:16our ship and responded to calls on the international channel.
00:21:28after which the helicopter left the area where the Russian
00:21:32warship was located. For skillful and decisive actions, Andrey Belousov
00:21:36awarded the commander of the Corvette the medal for combat
00:21:39distinctions. Pyongyang is firmly confident in Russia's
00:21:43victory in the special operation. This was stated in a telegram sent to Vladimir
00:21:47Putin this week by Kim Jong-un. The message
00:21:50was a response to the congratulations of the Russian president on the occasion
00:21:53of the seventy-eighth anniversary of the founding of the DPRK. Kim Jong-un
00:21:57also promised to continue supporting Russia and
00:22:00quoted "the fraternal Russian people."
00:22:03But the army and navy today are always
00:22:06not only our main allies, but if we translate
00:22:10everything into practical terms, this is the locomotive of the economy,
00:22:13the most powerful military-industrial complex, which is constantly developing
00:22:17and thanks to which we today. can live
00:22:20peacefully, alas, humanity has not yet
00:22:23invented anything else, perhaps someday the ideas
00:22:27of social humanism will prevail, but
00:22:29for now it's like this, whoever has the most powerful, newest
00:22:33and fastest weapons, that one is protected from all
00:22:36enemies, here we are absolute
00:22:39undisputed leaders. This week,
00:22:42on the eve of Gunsmith's Day, the Kremlin honored the best masters
00:22:45of the defense-industrial complex, designers,
00:22:48engineers, as always... Yes, in such cases, the faces of the laureates
00:22:52cannot be shown. Not all achievements can be discussed,
00:22:55because it is not just about the latest developments,
00:22:59about super-secret weapons, about what can only be seen
00:23:02in science fiction films, about people who need
00:23:06to be cherished like the apple of an eye. Well, congratulations this
00:23:09week are received by our colleagues from the "Military Acceptance" program. In
00:23:13honor of Gunsmith's Day, they also received high awards from
00:23:16the Ministry of Defense. Because military acceptance. always on
00:23:20the front lines. Alexey Egorov and the program's reporters always
00:23:24show our latest weapons first, of course, within
00:23:27what can generally be shown. In the epicenter of all
00:23:31military exhibitions, at sea, on land, in the sky, always
00:23:35personally test all military
00:23:38developments. Diana Serazi will continue.
00:23:59I have a disassembled AK-12 in my hands, not just
00:24:02an assault rifle, an heir to a great school, the pulse of generations
00:24:05beats in it from AKM to this very
00:24:08day. It was improved three times each time after
00:24:12it had been in real combat, now I
00:24:15managed to assemble it in almost 40 seconds,
00:24:19really. First I had to practice a lot, but that's
00:24:22because I had never done this
00:24:25before, had never held an assault rifle in my hands, but I was still able
00:24:29to assemble it, because simplicity and clarity
00:24:33are the main principle of Russian weapons, which do not stand still,
00:24:36from Kalashnikov assault rifles to missiles,
00:24:40Russian weapons are an alloy of science and experience,
00:24:43the military-industrial complex constantly reaches new
00:24:46heights. RSZzo Sarma, the main military
00:24:49premiere. of the year, the evolution of heavy systems
00:24:52Smerch and Tornado S. Experts immediately called it
00:24:56the answer to American HIMARS due to greater
00:24:59mobility and accuracy.
00:25:02And this is the first production tank that shoots down missiles and drones
00:25:06on approach, the T-90M with the
00:25:09Arena-M complex. The main shield of the country, the nuclear triad, is constantly
00:25:12being improved. On land, in the sky, under water. In
00:25:16the arms business, Russia sets the pace. This week,
00:25:19Vladimir Putin, at a meeting of the Military-Industrial Commission, named the main directions
00:25:23of the new state armaments program. Among
00:25:26the unconditional priorities, as before, is the strengthening of the nuclear
00:25:30triad, which remains a guarantee of our country's
00:25:33sovereignty and plays a key role in maintaining the balance of power in
00:25:37the world. I would like to note that hardly
00:25:41any nuclear country in the world can boast
00:25:44of indicators, say, of our strategic missile forces.
00:25:4892% modernity, that
00:25:52is, modern weapons, all this would be unthinkable without
00:25:55people, engineers, designers, turners, they
00:25:58pore over drawings, test prototypes at proving grounds,
00:26:02Russia celebrates Gunsmith's Day, a holiday for
00:26:05specialists, without whom a peaceful life cannot
00:26:09be imagined. Traditionally, the Kremlin, Catherine Hall, but the faces
00:26:12of the laureates cannot be shown. Filming, for obvious reasons, was done
00:26:16only from the back. Vladimir Putin congratulated
00:26:19employees of the military-industrial complex. The defense-industrial complex includes
00:26:23more than 500
00:26:25organizations. These are large industry
00:26:29holdings, small and medium-sized businesses, design
00:26:32bureaus and innovation centers,
00:26:35employing over 3.5
00:26:39million people. With your work and talent, you make
00:26:43a huge contribution to strengthening the defense capability and
00:26:46security of the homeland.
00:26:48Modern and in many ways unique weapons
00:26:52and equipment are created, which are rightly considered not only in our country,
00:26:56but in the world, to be among the most reliable and
00:26:59effective. And at the Ministry of Defense, our
00:27:02colleagues from the military acceptance program were awarded. Leading
00:27:06Alexey Egorov gets into secret facilities, factories in Penza, Stavropol and
00:27:10Yekaterinburg, turrets, engines, rocket launches.
00:27:13He personally tests equipment and communicates with designers
00:27:16right in the workshops. We arrived at a closed
00:27:19secret enterprise where new equipment is being prepared for release
00:27:23for our army. Right now, the "Military
00:27:26Acceptance" program is working here. We caught
00:27:30Alexey Egorov filming another
00:27:32technological premiere, Alexey will tell us about it a little
00:27:36later, but for now the host shows the award from Defense Minister
00:27:40Andrey Belousov. Here is our award,
00:27:43open it. The program became the winner of the All-Russian
00:27:47"Armament of the Year" award in the "Pen and
00:27:50Sword" nomination. Military Acceptance is 12 years old, we have made more
00:27:53than 500 episodes, setting
00:27:56a certain number, we will not be afraid to use this word, of world records,
00:27:59for example, our cameras flew more than 20
00:28:03km at a speed of about two Mach, knowing that
00:28:06virtually no one in the world can repeat such flights,
00:28:10went on a submarine voyage, made several
00:28:13transatlantic crossings, constantly travel to the special
00:28:16military operation zone, each episode of military acceptance
00:28:20is coordinated with the state secrets protection service. Alexey,
00:28:23well, you, as always, test new equipment, we
00:28:27always try to show new equipment in the program, but today
00:28:30they gave us a gift about...
00:29:33so that it's not a shame, well, everything looks
00:29:36very powerful, impressive, convenient at the same time,
00:29:40you know, and at the same time it is quite light,
00:29:44that is, if it overturns with a group of several people, it can
00:29:48in principle be put back on its wheels. Alexey, where will such a Niva pass, where
00:29:51will it go? Well, actually, everywhere where a classic
00:29:55Niva will pass, it became heavier due to armor,
00:29:58but it also became lighter due to the removal of the roof, glass,
00:30:01trunk. and the passenger, being here, can
00:30:04feel safe, well, exactly as safe as
00:30:08when FPV drones are flying overhead, we understand that from the side,
00:30:12of course, it can fly up, but we specifically left this part
00:30:15open, because again, the experience of the special military operation suggested
00:30:19that everything needed to be fast,
00:30:22quickly an FPV drone appeared, jumped out,
00:30:25ran away, I left it, here also a net protects against FPV drones,
00:30:29a net, where at the base is high molecular.TELEVISION NEWS TRANSCRIPT:
00:30:32polyethylene, firstly, it's you see, elastic, secondly, the detonation
00:30:36of ammunition will occur here, then here stands
00:30:39armor it should be noted
00:30:42that the hood here is also armored, the Niva
00:30:46is protected practically from all sides. Inside the tachanika
00:30:49is an armored bottom that will save from exploding grenades or from a waiting
00:30:53drone that can ambush our soldiers on
00:30:56the ground. The windshield is also strong.
