00:01:00and the first letter that I opened
00:01:03and read, was written to you by a boy named Vanya, who
00:01:07is 8 years old. At that time, my son was also Vanya and
00:01:10he was also 8 years old. That's
00:01:13why this particular letter touched me so much,
00:01:16that I actively plunged into this
00:01:19search.
00:01:22And Vanya Tomas Chelyabinskaya, he's probably not 8 years old anymore, but
00:01:26already around 12 years old. Big regards, this is a huge hello, city!
00:01:30From all of us, yes, children, write to the fighters, they are very
00:01:34happy to receive your letters and always carry them, by the way,
00:01:37close to their hearts. Thank you, thank you everyone, thank you very much.
00:02:02The events that will be discussed today took place in the Kharkiv
00:02:06direction. The situation in this sector of the front will be presented by our military
00:02:09correspondent, whom I invite to the studio, Elena Sokolova.
00:02:13Let's welcome her.
00:02:20Spring 2025, a unit of Russian
00:02:23troops from the 136th Assault Brigade received
00:02:27a combat mission in the area of the village Tikhoe.
00:03:00Another damaged tank served as such a shelter. From
00:03:03time to time, Kazbek would turn on his phone, record
00:03:06a video, and then the battery would die,
00:03:10there was no connection, his relatives decided that Kazbek was
00:03:13missing. Why did close relatives decide so, how
00:03:17long did this wait last, and most importantly,
00:03:20how did it end? I invite Zakhra Zakaryayeva to the studio,
00:03:24let's welcome her.
00:03:29Hello.
00:03:33This video that my husband filmed, when did you see it
00:03:36for the first time? When he came out of there? Or
00:03:39after? Yes, when there was already a connection. What did you decide at that moment
00:03:43when the connection was lost? When he was already going on
00:03:47combat missions, we somehow talked
00:03:50on the phone, already saying goodbye, he
00:03:53understood the full seriousness, of course,
00:03:56and he told the children to
00:04:00always obey their mother, support their mother in everything,
00:04:04and he told me to always take care of them. And how many children do you have?
00:04:08Two boys, the older one is 18, and
00:04:11the younger one is 16 years old.

00:08:53set,
00:09:02well, I also felt something already, although it was always hard
00:09:05to part, I say, God
00:09:08forbid, of course, but if something happens to you.
00:09:11He sometimes takes videos and photos
00:09:14so that we know how he was there all
00:09:18this time. It's clean, that's why Ramazan
00:09:21sometimes turned on his phone, made these recordings. That's how
00:09:25it happened. That particular time, how long was he missing when you raised
00:09:28the alarm that something had happened? He had the
00:09:32platoon commander's contacts, he said if anything, I can write
00:09:35to him. After about 5 days, I decided to write,
00:09:38I wrote, asking about Ramazan, if there was any connection with him,
00:09:42to which he answered, yes, he's fine, he's alive, healthy, he's at his
00:09:45position and that's it. And then
00:09:48after about two days, I guess,
00:09:52Ramazan's mother called me, and said
00:09:56that she, well, they told her that
00:09:59he was wounded. We also call our own, here we have long-awaited
00:10:03meetings. Who do you want to see here today? The director, probably, director is
00:10:07a call sign, a call sign. Why
00:10:10him specifically? Well, he and Ramazan
00:10:14went out together on the way. What did your husband
00:10:18tell you? Well, the whole way, how he was wounded, how
00:10:21Baba Yaga was constantly hanging over him. There
00:10:25was no count of these kamikaze
00:10:28birds. He said that he didn't expect to survive, even if
00:10:32wounded. He just always always
00:10:34said he wasn't afraid to die, he was afraid that his body wouldn't
00:10:38be found, that his body wouldn't be found, that they wouldn't be able to retrieve his body.
00:10:41Therefore, he hoped to get closer to our
00:10:45side and so that his body could be
00:10:48retrieved, and as for him remaining alive, he had no hopes
00:10:52at all. How many days did Kazbek remain
00:10:55under the tank when the director was with
00:10:58him? We will continue the conversation with your
00:11:01husband, the main character of this story, in the studio Ramazan
00:11:04Zakaryayev,
00:11:08hello, Ramazan, glad to see
00:11:10you,
00:11:12well, your wife wants to see the director,
00:11:16thank him, were you actually familiar with him
00:11:19before the incident when you were wounded, did you ever meet him?
00:11:23I met him on March 22nd. We showed
00:11:26footage, you under the tank, he's also there with you
00:11:30nearby, yes, yes, yes. Why did you decide to shoot a video? For
00:11:32proof. I didn't even want to. I didn't know if I would
00:11:36return. We have a video from your phone, let's watch it, attention to
00:11:39the screen.
00:11:45How much
00:11:46after?
00:11:54Hello.
00:12:55The enemy positions were far from you, 200-300 meters, and how
00:12:58did they act? They constantly shelled us, they didn't
00:13:02let us out. I tried two or three times, a kamikaze
00:13:06attacked me, in short, and Baba Yaga. I remember this
00:13:09wound, 10-15 meters stood on me. I came out of the
00:13:13tank, fired a clip, nothing happened to
00:13:16her, it turns out she has 15 kg of armor.
00:13:18That's what she dropped on me. What combat mission
00:13:22did you have then? What were you doing?
00:13:55were happening in the Kharkiv region in the spring of 2025. How did the situation change? Please, when
00:13:58we talk about liberation, whether it's two streets, three
00:14:02streets, it's incredible effort, it's
00:14:06incredible heroism of each of our soldiers. But as for
00:14:10Pytikha and Volchansk, you need to
00:14:13understand that it's a very small
00:14:16distance to the Belgorod region. The village of Tikhoe
00:14:19is literally 3 km from the border with
00:14:23the Belgorod region. And...
00:14:25we need to understand that the further we push back
00:14:29the enemy, the less intense
00:14:33the attacks will be over the territory, well, in
00:14:36particular, the Belgorod region. Every soldier
00:14:39who is currently in the Kharkiv region, who is currently
00:14:43in the Sumy region, of course, they
00:14:46understand this. Expanding the buffer zone allows us to
00:14:49pull back combat-ready units from such
00:14:53locomotive sectors.
00:15:25To be honest, there's no need to talk about it, we just went from village to village forward, without
00:15:29stopping, you could say, because the main combat-ready units
00:15:32were transferred precisely to the Kursk
00:15:35direction, and... as
00:15:37for our story, our reserve
00:15:41units were transferred there,
00:15:43and some cities were certainly liberated during
00:15:47this time, but as for the Kharkiv region, there are generally very
00:15:50heavy battles there. In the Kharkiv region, there is a Russian-speaking
00:15:53population, among others. Many
00:15:57of the guys I served with in the international brigade
00:16:00"Pyatnashka" were precisely from the Kharkiv
00:16:04militia, including Arsen Pavlov.
00:16:37was the director, right? And there were no products, no water, nothing
00:16:41at all, no, there weren't. I had an order back on
00:16:44April 13th, I remember, it was dangerous there, drones didn't
00:16:48let us. Uh-huh. So the commander said, well,
00:16:51take off, in short, if you can, get back by yourself,
00:16:55he says. So I walked for 2 days
00:16:59- with a Tajik, he was wounded. When we found out he was
00:17:02wounded, I went to the unit, I went to the command.
00:17:06ходила в командование.
00:17:37And he also, when he came
00:17:40to them, met with the director under the tank and
00:17:43then left with him. Did you and the director exchange contacts or
00:17:47was there any contact after that? There was none. I didn't even know he was
00:17:50alive. I thought he was definitely a "200" (KIA). And what else
00:17:54was known about him besides the call sign "Director"? What did you know? He was
00:17:58from the brigade, first battalion, just like
00:18:01you, call sign "Director", meaning
00:18:03infantryman, 136th brigade, first battalion. We approached
00:18:07the Ministry of Defense with this information,
00:18:11they met us halfway, we found this person. In our studio is
00:18:15the fighter with the call sign "Director", let's welcome him.
00:18:35Here, alas.
00:20:38Just like all of us there there was no water. These fields are all mined.
00:20:42A spiderweb,
00:20:46you hear, three, well, a living being, a sticky trap.
00:20:50This web, and the first time I
00:20:53broke loose, he was behind me, he
00:20:56heard, I say, it's going to go off,
00:21:00no, no, he walked, about two meters, then stepped on
00:21:03another one, I also thought, it's going to go off now, and then
00:21:07there are also remote-controlled devices on the road, with blinking lights. We
00:21:11go around them, thank God we were saved, because
00:21:14many guys blow up on these webs, more than on
00:21:18mines. This web is a terrible thing, you can't
00:21:21see it at all, then if you touch it slightly,
00:21:25that's it, it sticks to your clothes,
00:21:29your rifle or something, that's it.
00:21:33You can't just tear it off. So
00:21:36we kept these huge lighters
00:21:40in our pockets.
00:21:42If we saw them, we'd burn
00:21:45these webs. How much time was there, this shot, do we
00:21:49see it?
00:22:00You came out again by chance and met under another car
00:22:04picture and he screamed because I thought there was no one there
00:22:07I looked at that BMW there was nowhere to hide
00:22:11it was completely torn up I thought I'd better not
00:22:14go there and this FPV crashed into me and exploded I
00:22:18flew about three meters. Oh no,
00:22:21three holes in my head,
00:22:25and I'm sitting there thinking, where should I move now,
00:22:29blood is flowing, my back, I think,
00:22:32should I go right or left, and he, he
00:22:36screams, Director, Director, come
00:22:38here, he pulls me under the car, but
00:22:42there's no room, there are already three people lying there, I
00:22:45was unconscious for about 2 or 3 hours.
00:22:55He was lying on him when he was wounded, there was no room, I pulled myself. We entered there in March, it was still cold in
00:22:58March, and we left there
00:23:01in mid-April. So how long in total did you spend
00:23:05there? I spent 29 days. Look, 29
00:23:08days after the evacuation group, he stayed there for two more
00:23:12days, and then the evacuation came, guys, a small
00:23:16Chinese guy, scrawny, I almost...
00:24:32alive, but they got out. You were sent for treatment in Belgorod, but from there a transfer to
00:24:35Moscow was needed, as far as I know, right? Who helped,
00:24:39tell us. Honestly, Olibek
00:24:42Muradovich helped, he called the doctor. I
00:24:45wasn't myself then, in short, well, on his behalf
00:24:49the doctor. He is personally involved in
00:24:51helping
00:24:53SVO veterans, people affected, those who need
00:24:57help. He is here in our studio right in the hall, I invite
00:25:01Alibek Muradovich Serajinov to come here to the center,
00:25:03applause,
00:25:06hello Alibek, welcome,
00:25:10Alibek, tell us, how did you learn about Ramazan's story, about
00:25:13him needing help? I have a friend, his call sign
00:25:16is "Bek", he's a company commander, a former investigator. He went
00:25:20to serve, uh-huh, in the morning, when I woke up for that
00:25:23morning prayer, I saw on Bek's Telegram
00:25:27channel that Kazbek had wandered into his
00:25:29dugout, and in the evening of the same day I
00:25:32met completely by chance with Kazbek's
00:25:36wife. She told me about it, and a puzzle
00:25:39came together for me: I learned about it in the morning, and in the evening, well, it just
00:25:43so happened that we were able to help. I contacted
00:25:46Bek immediately, and Bek said that it was
00:25:51impossible to get him out, because, that is, it was impossible to leave
00:25:54the dugout with him, and he was very, he had three
00:25:58fragments in his head alone at that moment, not counting fragments all over
00:26:01his body. And the situation, well, his condition, the photograph, it was very
00:26:05telling itself,
00:26:07and Bek led him out, and that's exactly
00:26:11the video we showed, that was Bek, that's the voiceover
00:26:14supporting Ramazan, saying,
00:26:17hold on, yes, here I would give credit to
00:26:20Kazbek's wife,
00:26:22who, like a mountaineer, like a worthy
00:26:26wife of a serviceman,
00:26:29fought for him, fought for his health and fought for his...
00:26:32search, let's say. Bek managed
00:26:36to get him to the first populated area, which was about 6-7
00:26:39km from his
00:26:42position, then we managed to send him for an MRI in
00:26:45Belgorod, we managed to send him to Moscow
00:26:49the very next day. They told me directly, if we operate on him,
00:26:53he might die, he might stay. He
00:26:56had a fragment in his head, you see these scars on the right side, he had a trepanation of the skull.
00:27:00After the operation, praise be to the Almighty, he came out
00:27:04of the operation normally, the fact that
00:27:07Kazbek is alive, the fact that Kazbek is healthy, walking with us,
00:27:11this is generally, let's say, something, well,
00:27:1499% out of 100, no one would have
00:27:18believed it, probably. I accidentally found out about Alibek, came up to
00:27:21him, asked for help,
00:27:25and then he helped us with everything,
00:27:28thank you very much to the doctors.
00:28:44Ivanovsky, central city hospital.
00:28:46Stanislavich, you worked a miracle, thank you very much,
00:28:50my deepest bow to you for believing in a person's salvation, take care of each other,
00:28:54always be there for each other, always be in touch.
00:28:58Thank
00:28:58you.
00:29:04A feat is not always a beautiful picture about the liberation of
00:29:08territories, victory over the enemy. Sometimes, staying
00:29:11alive, getting out of a hopeless situation is also a feat.
00:29:14To survive is to overcome the enemy, and for that you need courage and
00:29:17patience, the help of a combat comrade. Never
00:29:21lose hope of finding
00:29:22your own.
00:30:03In early November 2025,
00:30:06NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte called on the countries
00:30:09of the North Atlantic Alliance to prepare, quote: for
00:30:12a long-term confrontation with Russia: Russia will remain
00:30:16a destabilizing force in Europe and the world, they are preparing for
00:30:20a prolonged confrontation, we cannot be naive.
00:30:23The inevitability of conflict with our country is also predicted by the Chief
00:30:27of the General Staff of the French Armed Forces, General Fabien
00:30:30Mandone, and he proposes a plan for rearmament
00:30:32of the country for the next 3 years. The first goal I
00:30:36set for the armed forces is to be ready for shock in 3-4
00:30:39years. The course for active militarization of the country
00:30:43was also taken by the authorities of the Federal Republic of Germany. This was stated at the end of October by the head
00:30:47of the Federal Intelligence Service Martin Jäger, speaking in
00:30:50the Bundestag. The statements of Western and European
00:30:53politicians about the escalation of the conflict with our country look especially
00:30:57contradictory against the backdrop of regular statements.
