drones. recently there was a case here when they used it on a civilian, on a woman, the woman was in the yard of the house, they used it on her, they don’t spare anyone, they don’t have time.” children, women, men, they have no pity, they are fascists. at the approach to the artillerymen's position. our car is met by a mobile electronic warfare team. the task of the fighters is to create a safe zone around us in case something happens to neutralize ukrainian drones. we are told that fpv also flies. we take a rap, quickly get ready, go to the firing point and begin to jam it. that is, we plant the birds, if we can’t land the fish, we destroy them with weapons. along the pou trail, hidden from drones by treetops, we make our way to gun, also well camouflaged. this. the d-30 towed howitzer, developed back in the fifties, continues to prove

itself to be a reliable and accurate weapon capable of destroying armored vehicles and fortifications . today’s task for us is to hit the target of the dugout, there is a large- caliber one, it constantly haunts us , like our infantry, and today’s task is to hit it. target coordinates received, gunner. it takes no more than a minute, then the first high-explosive fragmentation shot is sent through the dugout! job artillery is always carried out in tandem with a uav crew. the drone operator adjusts the fire and records the hit. the first shell landed near the enemy position. the gun is aimed and they open fire again. this time the target is destroyed. immediately after work, the howitzer is camouflaged again and the crew moves to the shelter. enemy drones, including kamikaze drones, can appear at any minute. discover them. and intercept, the task of calculating the uav. there seems to be a large number

of such things flying around here right now. what it is? well it drone, nine, homemade projectile, compacted with plastid, detonator, that is , here it is, well, they stuck it out of here, there is a self-destruction board, these mustaches bend and close upon impact. the servicemen of the bars8 volunteer detachment are ready to carry out any and even the most difficult combat missions, each of them is here at their own request and with only one goal: to destroy ukrainian neo-nazism once and for all. stanislav vasilchenko, valery vinakurov, alina zykova, irina zaborskaya, lead the southern sector of the military special operation. anti-israel protests have reached british universities. the students are demanding an end to cooperation with companies that in any way support the tel aviv operation. in gaza, pro-palestinian sentiment is especially strong in the famous cambridge, where protests are held regularly. prime minister sunok asks them

, a rescuer and employees arrived at the scene ministry of emergency situations, which have already been carried out. completely rescue work, now the rescue work is completed, and after all, let’s listen to what they told us today at the ministry of emergency situations. 13:05 in st. petersburg, the duty department received an application at the address "bolshaya morskaya building 69", where, in the rear of a traffic accident, bus 262 route ended up in the water. three people died as a result of the incident, six people were hospitalized. well, here's the latest data on the victims you heard from. representatives of the ministry of emergency situations, three people died, six people were hospitalized, however most of the people who ended up in hospitals are in critical condition and, unfortunately, experts assume that the number of deaths will be much higher. now police officers and employees of the investigative committee, employees of the prosecutor's office are working on the site, we have received comments from

officials , let's listen to what the police and the prosecutor told us. according to preliminary data, at the time of the emergency there were about 20 people inside the vehicle. investigators of the main directorate of the ministry of internal affairs of russia opened a criminal case under part five of article 264 of the criminal code of russia. an investigation is currently underway to determine the circumstances of the incident. controls the establishment of all the circumstances of a traffic accident involving a passenger bus or cars. the prosecutor's office will assess the implementation of road safety legislation and federal legislation, and based on the results , comprehensive prosecutorial response measures will be taken. the prosecutor's office is monitoring the progress investigation of a criminal case initiated by investigative authorities on this fact. as for the driver, according to

firstly, we saw that mikhailovich mishustin had difficult times when he was chairman of the government. firstly, the pandemic, secondly, unprecedented sanctions, both,

the government under his leadership passed with dignity. this is the first. secondly, mikhail vladimirovich reacts adequately to all proposals that come from our faction. firstly, he hears, he listens, he doesn’t quite agree, but he always has arguments and...

there is no one responsible, in this regard, if there is such a ministry, it will be correct, just as we insist on agency for veterans' affairs, combat veterans , this must be done, and

we also believe that, given the problem migration issues, it is necessary to isolate the migration service from the ministry of internal affairs, create a separate department, but i cannot help but say that we have a ministry of economic development, which... prepares proposals and develops our economy, and rosstat is subordinate to it, that is, this such a supervisory body that can see how everything is being done, but it’s somehow strange when i’m in charge myself, and i’m immediately controlled by my subordinates, in this regard , our proposal is that rosstat should be directly subordinated to the president housing and communal services, if i'm not mistaken, yes, the proposal of the ministry, the agency of the ministry , we have a huge problem... creating some kind of structural

unit that would deal with the problems of housing and communal services is more than obvious. and concluding our conversation, this is what i would like to ask about from the point of view of the new regulations, which were approved by amendments to the constitution in 2020, and are now being approved by the prime minister and approved by the lower house of parliament. that's why it's important, yes what it is gives, because as i understand it, there is now closer interaction between the executive legislative branch and legislators. the most important thing is responsibility; deputies are not only legislative power. representative, we represent the entire multinational people of russia, and now we, deputies, representatives of the people, take responsibility for the appointment and approval of the prime minister, deputy prime ministers, ministers with the exception of security ministers, who are appointed by direct decree of the president, this means that we are not just agree on how it happened before, and we take responsibility, then our voters can also ask us, why did you approve it

like this?
