the russian army liberated the village of petrovskaya in the... direction, repelled 21 attacks by the armed forces of ukraine, zelensky’s formation lost over 700 more soldiers and mercenary officers, destroyed seven tanks and the same number of other armored vehicles, as well as 27 artillery pieces and self-propelled guns and 99 combat drones. about the situation on the front line, denis alekseev. now petrovskoye, a settlement officially liberated from the presence of nationalists, every day there is good news from the avdievsky direction, ours is there. troops are rapidly

developing an offensive to the west, but the militants they’re running, here’s just footage of how the dry soldiers leave their dugouts, trenches, run away at the sight of the russian military, dispersed across the field and it doesn’t matter that , in full view of our drones, they would run away from the artillery in the avdiivka direction , units of the group of forces-center liberated the village of petrovskaya, occupied more advantageous positions, and repelled 11 counterattacks. assault groups of the ukrainian armed forces in the areas of leninsky, novgorodsky, novobakhmutovka, tonenky, orlovka and pervomaisky. the enemy lost up to 165 military personnel, four tanks, two bradley infantry fighting vehicles, an american-made m113 armored personnel carrier, five vehicles. but kiev sent almost its best fighters to this direction. western technology provided them, but in the end they abandoned everything. this is footage from a swallow on which. was

cleared the other day, it is clear that the village was badly destroyed, vseushniki worked on it with multiple launch rocket systems, mortars and artillery, used prohibited phosphorus shells, because many houses burned down to the ground, and the motorized riflemen who knocked out the militants from lastochkin were thanked in a telegram by defense minister sergei shaigu, and today sergei shaigu checked the progress of the state defense order by tula enterprises. the minister visited npo strela, where they produce counter-battery weapons and radar stations.

inspected the production of modern weapons at the npo splav enterprise; technical re-equipment is being actively carried out there; production volumes for some items have increased as much as seven times. that's what he said minister following the trip at a meeting with the participation of the governor of the tula region alexei dyuminov. in general, the schedule is being met and the president’s instructions are being carried out. this, of course, cannot but make us happy. and today we’ll talk about how, on the one hand, we can optimize these graphs. at the pritula state university, shaigu checked the organization of the educational process, and this is what it turned out: students carry out repairs and maintenance of weapons used in special operations. speech, for example, dozens of anti-tank missiles

complexes, practice here is inseparable from theory, everything is accomplished, within the framework of an additional module for training in drone control skills and the development of software based on the skat center for unmanned systems, created on the initiative of the governor, this is a device that is used in the toughest re-counteraction, on this device it is implemented homing system, how many of these do you make, right now our production of these things is 3.00 per month. possibility of expansion up to 10 thousand per month. there, the minister of defense was presented with the center’s developments that allow flying at non-standard frequencies, for example, and the likelihood that in the very near future these developments will be introduced into combat tactics is very high. denis alekseev, lead. more than 20,000 mercenaries from 50 countries fight in the ranks of the ukrainian army. the washington post reports. many americans have already died. this is the publication's reaction to the statement.

that nato soldiers could be deployed to help kiev, why even the allies did not support the french president, the head of our berlin bureau, mikhail antonov, found out. what macron succeeded in doing was once again appathe the public and firmly cling to the front pages of newspapers, to the airwaves of political talk shows. the kind of non-coercion that the president, running from his farmers, proposed to transform the regional conflict into the format of a full-fledged european war with the prospect of an exchange of nuclear strikes, seemed to surprise colleagues on both sides of the atlantic. while most european leaders agree with the part about defeating russia, the idea of ​​sending their own troops has backfired. macron's remarks were a departure from the restraint demonstrated by the western allies, he tried to fill the leadership vacuum, but his attempt to show russia strength worked against him. it played out in the sense that colleagues began to energetically distance themselves from macron’s words, despite the fact that , according to agence france-presse, the plan to send

troops to ukraine due to the unstable situation at the front had been discussed by them for several weeks, and moreover, was approved in washington. the way they commented on the idea of ​​macronation. make washington lansknechts, because on british special forces groups have been secretly operating in ukraine for a long time, as the financial times writes. polichenelle's secret, although the compactness of such battle groups and the local nature of operations, allows london not to recognize its direct participation in the war against russia.

on the contrary, you can no longer hide a multinational expeditionary force; you still have to decide on this. the likelihood of centralized participation of nato troops in the hostilities at the alliance headquarters is complete. another contribution to the treasury of franco-german contradictions. there will be no ground troops, soldiers sent there by european or nato countries. and the soldiers operating in our countries will also not take an active part in the war. on the so-called eastern flank of nato, the idea

of ​​​​sending troops to ukraine also caused zero enthusiasm. at the visegrad four meeting , differences were recorded: ukraine needs help, but poland and the czech republic are ready to give to kiev.

existed, here in western europe and on the other side of the atlantic they can talk about the need for strategic balance, but in in poland, everyone will say that these are fairy tales, because it would be better if there was no strong russian presence in this part of the world. these basic attitudes of the polish elites are fully consistent

with the collective goal of the west, which is to inflict a strategic defeat on russia. even politicians, who should be well versed in the causes of the ukrainian conflict, talk about this. “we must help ukraine, because we cannot let russia win this war, otherwise another aggression will follow.” federal president of germany steinmeier promoted the coup d'etat in ukraine. he, together with merkel , deceived russia for years, simulating the minsk process, which was supposed to give the kiev regime time to prepare for war. now people like him don’t give it a chance to end, because they don’t see a future for themselves after defeat. in may, as a result of nato exercises, a staunch defender of almost a hundred thousand troops will be concentrated on the western borders of russia, belarus and ukraine, and they will decide what to do with it next. direct participation of the west in the war. russia may well be the next step, because financing kiev and supplying weapons does not give the necessary result. moreover, on

the battlefield, the initiative completely passed to the russians, so they probably have some kind of desperate plan. the complaint against the french rooster is that it crowed too loudly too early. mikhail antonov, anastasia barkovskaya, andrey putra, vesti berlin, germany. china's special envoy li hui will visit at the end of the week. russia, and then will visit brussels, poland, ukraine, germany and france. as stated in the prc media, the diplomat will promote a political settlement of the ukrainian crisis. beijing continues the so-called shuttle diplomacy, is seeking peace negotiations, and a special envoy will arrive in moscow on march 3. well, zelensky flew to albania to beg for weapons. the prime minister promised to help this country with a lot of american weapons.

the united states does not allow ukraine to begin peace negotiations with russia, so it is the white house that is responsible for the deaths, it said.

i just visited moscow, the largest city ​​of europe, with a population of 13 million people, i traveled up and down and this city is much nicer, at least outwardly, than any other city that we have, this is not support for putin, by the way, this did not make me fall in love with putin, this made me hate our own leaders because i...

the end of the conflict in ukraine. according to him , the confrontation will end with, i quote, a reasonable settlement. in a conversation with friedman, carlson recalled that moscow offered options for a peaceful settlement. the journalist pointed out that zelensky is a pawn in a big game. but in fact, events are controlled by russia, the usa and nato. i'd like to see a settlement. a conflict in which what russia wants, and i think has the right, is not to have nato missiles on its border. i don’t know why we should do this, i don’t know what we’ll ultimately get out of it, i don’t understand it, i don’t understand the purpose of nato. i don't think this bloc will benefit the united states. if i were the president of america, i would immediately leave nato because i don't think the alliance is helping the united states. both tucker and friedman agreed that there are active discussions in the world about what victory should look like, about which the american media writes a lot. however, not everyone in the western political elite believes in it. the journalist recalled his conversation with viktor

orban. the reporter then asked: can ukraine win? and the prime minister of hungary, whom karl... as a man of exceptional intelligence, said that ukraine is a country that does not have its own economy, and its victory is impossible. carlson also compared military and industrial potential of russia and nato countries. for example, russia produces artillery shells, which are essential in ground warfare, at a ratio of 7:1. that is, russia produces seven times more artillery shells than all of europe combined.

they did not comment on biden’s official duties, numerous mistakes and reservations. is being tested for adequacy by performing the double failure of the german navy, this is how the german building bilt commented on the attempt of the german frigate geson to destroy an american drone ripper, worth 30 million euros. in the red sea they mistook it for a houthi drone, but it ’s unclear how they could have confused it; the wingspan of the ripper is 20 m.

in the end, the main thing is that the drone was not shot down. traffic bypassing tver along the m11 highway will be fully opened this summer. the new route will significantly save travel time. margarita semenyuk found out how the work is progressing. we click on any point and we see who the licensee is. vehicle, car category, license plates and all documents. red dots transport by aeroglonas system, within a radius of 3 km, employees see the movement of drivers online, and can remotely record violations using a navigation tracker. this is our stationary mobile station where we carry out supervisory activities, here you can see a printer,

a computer, a tablet, which is equipped with scales, it... we have dimensional control, and we write protocols for all activities, compile materials, it is carried out here , and such a tracker may well become mandatory for freight and passenger carriers, the idea of ​​transport transparency the head of the highway, vyacheslav petushenko , announced the flow to the minister of transport of russia vitaly savelyev, he visited the central control center of the central control committee. we would see all transport flows, and for us it would be complete transparency of all transportation. whoever would violate it, let ’s discuss how to do it, the capabilities of domestically produced automation and the operation of the central control center were demonstrated to the relevant minister: we are trying to improve the competitive environment for our trucks, we are trying now pass a law that will oblige foreign carriers, including

eu countries, to pay on our roads, just as our drivers pay, so that the competitive working conditions are the same, he too. emphasized that russia is one of the world-leading countries in the use of transponders, while the company abandoned imported frameworks under the conditions of sanctions and switched to domestic ones. today there is no need to say so, but to turn to foreign manufacturers, all the equipment, even the software products, we react quite actively to the challenges that ours do not give us today and we feel confident. the roads of the state company avtodor are now patrolled by 128 crews of emergency commissioners, almost 20 of them from the national rada. specialists travel around the sites day and night. there are technical means of organizing traffic, signal cones, signal beacons, road signs that inform drivers in advance that they need to change lanes and

safely drive through this section, 24 hours the ring road is driven more than 16,000 times; the peak flow rate is traditionally 22,000 cars in 24 hours in the summer. neural network algorithms in an automated system record incidents on the road. the most popular - the car broke down, the fuel ran out or animals suddenly appeared , the dog was walking, we sent it to the commissioner, in the end the girl called back herself, literally in 5 minutes we say, we’ll pick her up, the all-seeing eye, the dispatch center, here is all the information, the road network, only per year artificial intelligence operators they process more than a billion photos and videos, and currently control 144 cameras at a time. the value of the system in artificial intelligence is machine vision; it automatically notices and records a variety of events.

the central ring road became a pilot site where, for the first time in russia, they created and implemented a free flow toll collection system on roads, this is a new barrier-free passage for cars, routes equipped with detectors, for example, if there are four lanes passing at the ninth kilometer. address of the president of the russian federation

vladimir putin to the federal assembly. live. today at 12:00 moscow time. we watch to know everything about russia, the best historical series, we watch, we look in the app or on the website, we’ll tell you what this day in history is memorable for, we’ll tell you right now. hello. today is an unusual day, it appears once every 4 years, then the current year is called a leap year, but this was not always the case.

she owes her birth on february 29 to the ruler of ancient rome, julius caesar. he was tired of the old calendar, which was calculated based on the movements of the sun and moon. by there were 355 days in a year; every 2 years a month of 22 days was added. astronomers from egyptian alexandria determined a new calendar named after caesar. his julian. rome began life according to it on january 1 , 1945. he took into account the movement of the earth around the sun in one year, and it lasts 365 days, 5 hours and 46 seconds. these seconds, minutes and hours add up to another day over 4 years. and by february they were added by caesar's successor, octavian augustus. he named the month of august after himself, which lasted 30 years in rome. days. but on the 31st day of july, named after julius caesar, octavian added a day to his august, taking it away from the last month of the roman year, from february. after 16 centuries, the astronomers of pope gregory xvi

found out that the julian calendar was still behind the sun by 11 minutes and 14 seconds per year, and whole days had accumulated over the centuries. countries began to switch to the gregorian calendar. russia in 1918, according to which leap years are those that are divisible by four. on february 29 , 1692, the persecution of witches began. which went down in history as the salem witch hunt. in the village of salim, in new england, today in the north american state of massachusetts, lived settlers who today would be called religious fanatics. they attributed many troubles to the machinations of the devil and witchcraft. one day, in one family , their teenage daughters fell ill with an unknown disease; they had a fever, hallucinations, and complained that someone was stabbing them with pins and a knife. the doctor could not cure them, he said that the girls were damaged , that day the first suspects were arrested witchcraft, sarah gut and sarah osborne. then

they threw me into prison. about 200 more people, men, women and even children, were interrogated with passion; almost all of them admitted to conspiring with the devil. the court ordered the execution of 19 convicts. over time, the results of the process were declared illegal. the last of the suspects was acquitted in 2022. today, the salem witch hunt is considered one of the darkest shameful chapters in north american history, as the epitome of paranoia, ignorance and religious marcobesia. 80 years ago on this day, 29 february 1944, in a battle with bandera , general nikolai vatutin , one of the most talented and young soviet military leaders, was only 42. in the first days of the war, he actually headed the general staff, then was chief of staff of the northwestern front, commanded the voronezh, southwestern and the first ukrainian fronts, near stalingrad , thwarted the germans’ attempts to release

the army trapped in the cauldron. vatutin took part in the battle of kursk, liberating ukraine and kiev. the soldiers said, where vatutin is, there is victory. in that he spent the day at the same time, and in the evening he went to the city of slavuta to the headquarters of the sixtieth army. on the way, his motorcade came across a gang of nationalists and a shootout ensued. historians argue why vatutin chose the most dangerous route, traveling almost without security. it is believed that he was ambushed. doctors fought for his life for more than a month, but did not save him. nikolai vatutin was buried in kiev, and a monument was erected over the grave of the liberating general. a year ago, by decision of the ukrainian authorities, it was demolished. on february 29, 1908, the cabaret theater the bat was opened in moscow. he was born from skit-boy actors of the art theater. olga kniper chekhova portrayed a parisian chansonette. ivan moskvin, a farcical woman with a beard, and konstantin stanislavsky showed tricks.

if it is possible to send troops to western ukraine, nothing should be ruled out on this issue in the future. if we send troops into ukraine, we will obviously become a warring country. this means the beginning of world war iii. when you and i remember the events of the forties, the defeat of the french army, because the french group was larger than up. this is the cause of everything. unexpectedly it turned out that no one can rearm the army, the military industry is not ready, let others fight, but we are somewhere we'll get through it all here. france was a statistic, which was defeated at the beginning of the war and, by and large, was made a winner at the end, and precisely made a winner.
