the airborne forces were awarded the title hero of russia. massive rocket attack on israeli army positions. the rockets were fired from territory under hezbollah control. how does tel aviv respond? flooded roads and houses , washed-out bridges in three settlements of buryatia introduced a state of emergency due to flooding. about the situation on the ground in the report of our correspondent from the region. and now an urgent message comes from nizhny tagil, as reported by the russian ministry of emergency situations, the body of a girl has disappeared from under the rubble of a house in nizhny tagil, news agencies write about this, thus, the total number of deaths as a result of the collapse of the house has reached five people, four, according to the latest data, are listed as missing, they are now being searched for under the rubble, dismantling of the structure continues. without

the use of heavy equipment. in the dpr, as a result of the ukrainian strike on volnovakhi , there were civilian casualties, our correspondents in the region report this. the data is still being finalized. according to preliminary information, the ukrainian armed forces used the hymarc rocket system. a residential building was damaged, and a gas pipe broke out the windows in some buildings. russian the military worked on equipping missiles with special ammunition in frames. nuclear forces. the personnel of the missile formations of the southern and central military districts also occupied designated areas for electronic launches. aviation units also practiced equipping aviation weapons with training ammunition. they conducted air patrols in designated areas. as noted by the ministry of defense , training takes place by decision of the president. the main goal is to maintain the readiness of personnel and equipment to perform combat missions.

they were greeted like heroes; the day before, the largest prisoner exchange between russia and the west since the cold war took place. 10 people returned to russia, eight released and two children. at vnukovo airport , vladimir putin personally met them at the boarding ramp. the president congratulated those who returned and emphasized that russia had never forgotten about them. and he said that all eight would be presented with state awards. he will tell you about the atmosphere in which the meeting took place. the runway, the red carpet, the presidential regiment, in vnukova’s plane lands, on board of which are those whom, as the president puts it, the homeland has not forgotten for a minute. the head of state personally arrived at the airfield to meet the russians who had returned home on exchange right in the morning. the first to descend is vadim krasikov, collected, restrained, the same patriot about whom, apparently, vladimir putin spoke in an interview with tucker in february.

but whom i shook hands with and hugged today. following hand in hand are four people at once, the dultsev family, anna and artyom, and their two minor children, and this, of course, the most emotional scene of the evening. the dulcevo couple were arrested in slovenia at the end of 2022, their children were sent to foster families. if it weren’t for the current exchange with their mother and father, they might not have returned, so anna’s tears and artyom’s smile, like the embarrassment of their son and daughter, are so easy to understand. vladislav klyushin, vadim konoshchenok, pavel rubtsov, by the way, the only one who goes down the ladder with things, mikhail makushin, roman seleznev.

eight russians detained while imprisoned in nato countries will all be presented for state awards, the president emphasized, and specially thanked those involved in military service. first of all, i want to congratulate you all on your return to your homeland. now i want to appeal to those of you who are directly related to military service, i want to thank you for... from the oath to your duty and the hand that does not forget you for a minute, you will all be presented with a state award, we are with you we'll see you again, we'll talk about your future, now i just want to congratulate you.

the prisoner exchange with russia has only intensified political split in the united states, journalists from the american newspaper washington post came to this opinion. according to her, many republicans, including donald trump, are unhappy that biden is trying to portray this deal as purely his personal achievements. about how you... report by our own correspondent in the usa dmitry melnikov. in violation of his own daily routine, which does not involve such late events, president biden still came to the andrews military base to meet this flight from ankara. camela harris is also here, and

she, as a presidential candidate, needs the laurels of the savior of american citizens much more now. she paused specifically for these shots. his election campaign, but biden does not yet intend to share the glory; from the very beginning, he emphasized that the exchange deal with russia was his personal merit. three us citizens, paul willan, evan gershkovich and alsou kurmasheva, reached america without incident, and these are the very first images after their transfer to the american side in ankara with the stars and stripes and already on the plane on the way home. at this moment the white house is already convenes the press for an emergency statement from the president, next to biden are relatives of us citizens released as part of the exchange deal. such transactions come with strict requirements and there are never any guarantees. nothing is more important to me than

protecting americans at home abroad, which is why we will continue to work for the release of all wrongfully detained americans around the world. this deal would not be possible without our allies. in germany, poland, slovenia, norway and turkey. they all showed activity and were with us. and they accepted bold decisions, released prisoners held legally in their countries and provided logistical support to bring americans home. however, the biden administration itself has already made the current big deal with russia a major factor in the election campaign, presenting the exchange as the release of americans, germans and russians from captivity. for which these people were detained and convicted in russia, the american press does not even mention, for example, not a word that the wall street journal reporters of evan gershkovich was detained in march 23 in yekaterinburg, when, on instructions from the cia, he was collecting information about the work of russian defense enterprises, in particular

the ural carriage plant. gershkovich was interested in the work schedule of the enterprise and information about the military equipment produced there. gershkovich claimed that he was just preparing a report. for some reason, he spent several hours exploring the area around security facilities, for which he was accused of espionage and sentenced to sixteen years in a high -security penal colony. for espionage in russia former marine paul willan was also convicted. in addition to american citizenship, willan, who in the usa is called a businessman, for some reason has passports of great britain, ireland and canada. whelan was detained in 2018 in moscow. as it turned out, this businessman is actually a career employee.

radio liberty, permanently lived in the czech republic, but in may twenty-third she flew to russia. in october of the same year, she was accused of refusing to register as a foreign agent; in december, another case was opened against kurmasheva for spreading fakes about the russian army. in last month she was sentenced to 6 and a half years in prison, while observers are wondering what the reason for such an unprecedented prisoner exchange in the white house is already answering. it's all about... unjustly convicted americans are an absolute priority, in this particular case vice president haris actually had the opportunity to speak with chancellor scholz

earlier this year at the munich security conference, where she discussed this issue with him. what exactly is the merit of kamal and harris in the prisoner exchange case, big question. however, in the election race , everything goes into the piggy bank; she even turned her short comment immediately after the first messages from ankara into an election speech. for me, as vice president. it has been an honor to work alongside our president joe biden to bring home more than seventy americans over the past 3 and a half years, and we will never waver in our commitment to bring home every american who has been wrongfully detained or detained. this is my solemn commitment to my countrymen, which i will always carry out. at the same time , washington does not hide the fact that in order for the exchange to take place, they had to put pressure on official berlin; they came to germany from russia as part of this operation.

through the fsb of the cia, this was the main line along which

the agreement was actually reached. the children of illegal intelligence officers who arrived yesterday found out that they were russian only when the plane took off from ankara. before this, they did not know that they were russian and that they had anything to do with our country. when the children came down the ramp plane, they don’t speak russian, and it was putin who greeted them in spanish, he said: “fight us.” nights, and this, by the way , is heard, heard on camera during the filming, and when these illegal immigrants were in prison, uh, actually, children, they were deprived of the opportunity to constantly see their children, and well, with a certain frequency, but not like that often, as we would like, the children were shown to them, but they always did not have such an opportunity and... there was a real threat, if they stayed there, of deprivation of parental rights, and

this means that according to one of the gru employees, the americans, naturally, tried to influence this gru employee who was in prison there and... they did not find this employee’s father here, and a telephone call was organized, and during the telephone call the father, despite to what was expected of him, he actually said: son, you are doing everything right, hold on, this is also a very interesting sketch, krasikov, he is an employee of the federal security service, he served in alpha. and it's interesting that when he served in alpha, he served with

some members of the presidential security, the presidential security, who now work in the presidential security and who, naturally , they also greeted each other yesterday, when they saw each other, the children of illegal immigrants asked yesterday... an assessment of the interaction that was carried out with the kgb, with the ministry of foreign affairs of belarus, and

to express gratitude for the assistance that president lukashenko personally provided in drawing up such a complex chain, and well , by the way, our observers remind us that in due time...

homeland, thanks to this position. today is airborne forces day in russia. vladimir putin congratulated the personnel and veterans of the airborne troops on their professional holiday. the telegram published on the kremlin website noted that patriotic traditions, loyalty to the oath and brotherhood in battle help paratroopers solve important tasks during a special military operation. the president expressed confidence that the soldiers and officers of the airborne forces will continue to make significant contributions. contribution to ensuring the defense capability and security of our countries. and now we return to the news from nizhny tagil, the number of deaths at the site of the collapse of part of an apartment building has increased to five. rescuers recovered the girl's body from the rubble. meanwhile, search and rescue efforts continue. more than 500

disoriented, where the ratings of the leading ruling parties are falling significantly, where, unfortunately, assassination attempts on politicians are becoming a reality, where the ability for dialogue and mutual understanding is lost, where all moral and ethical standards are lost.
