what is memorable about this day in history, we will tell you right now, hello, on august 12 , 1649, the battle of sbarazham took place, one of the most important during the uprising of bohdan khmelnytsky, when the cossacks of the zaporizhian army tried.

on august 12, 1928, the first all-union spartakiad began, competitions of physical education societies, many of them were called spartak circles, hence the name spartakiad. in the parade of athletes 25,000 young men and women took part in the opening day of the games on red square. the spartakiad was organized as a counterweight

to the main competitions of the west - the olympics. the dynamo stadium was built in moscow for the games, and more than 7,000 athletes took part in them, and not only from all over the soviet union. 17 countries sent their representatives from workers ' sports organizations. the largest delegations were from germany and finland. the games in moscow surpassed in scale the olympics that ended in amsterdam on the same day. we had four kinds of sports more, and the number of participants is more than twice as large as or... the first all-union spartakiad of the twenty-eighth year had a huge impact on the development of soviet sports, both mass and professional, and gave a start to future victories of our athletes at major international competitions. on august 12, 1962, the soviet spacecraft vostok-4 was launched, piloted by the ussr pilot-cosmonaut pavel popoy.

the world's first group flight of spacecraft began , because the day before , the vostok-3 spacecraft entered orbit under the control of andriana nikolaeva. for the first time, they worked out radio communication between two devices in space, conducted scientific, technical, biological and medical experiments. the minimum distance between the ships was only 6.5 km. nikolaev and popov even saw each other, and during the communication session with the ground they sang, and before that, also for the first time in space. having entered orbit, nikolaev took control , this had not been done before, manually turned the ship with the porthole towards the launch vehicle, took a photo, alas, it lit up, the rocket was on the side sun. during the flight, nikolaev and popovich also untied themselves from their seats for the first time and floated freely in zero gravity; before them, gagarin and titov flew tightly strapped in, and they also became the first cosmonauts whose images were broadcast on a television network. the ussr and

intervision. exactly 50 years ago. on august 12 , 1974, the now legendary film "only old men are going to battle" was released on soviet screens. this war drama was directed by leonid bykov, who also played the main role of the commander of the singing squadron, alexei tetorenko, in nickname of the maestra. in his youth, bykov himself dreamed of becoming a pilot, but he was not accepted into the school because of his short stature, he decided to make a film about pilots one day. the script was written by three people, sam bykov, evgeniya anaprienko and alexander satsky based on the events of the war, consulted with veterans and created characters whose prototypes are real.

let's walk through these places, who survived? this is what this day in history was like. so says the lighthouse. the ocean is raging, clouds of strange smoke rise into the sky. what anomalies were discovered near the mysterious island

benet in the arctic, what kind of threat could be hidden in the ice of the east siberian sea. we'll talk about this in the next 20 minutes, here are some other topics we'll touch on. august, calm down, it's pouring in russia so much that all standards have already been exceeded, all records have been broken. will the rains stop altogether, is it still worth hoping for summer warmth? it turns out that 2f16, which were spotted at zelensky's presentation, do not fly. what kind of samples are these, from which american airplane graveyard, were they transported to ukraine. passed. thank god, the olympic swim in poseyn is definitely will be a nightmare for triathletes, how many athletes were hospitalized with an intestinal infection, what else could the athletes have been poisoned with at the paris games? you are watching the main weather program, i am vadim zavuchenkov,

hello! august has apparently forgotten its formal status as a summer month, it is pouring as if it were deep autumn outside, which regions? in rainwater this week, we will tell you in our review, and then we will figure out why the precipitation is so intense and whether it will stop in the near future. in ufa , drivers tried to leave the flooded parking. one man held his car with his hands so that it would not be carried away by the current. this summer in the capital of bashkiria has already been called a water hammer, since any rain. turned into a flood, this time the city was hit by a colossal amount of precipitation, turbulent streams at intersections knocked people off their feet, water penetrated into shopping centers apartments, while the wind intensified to storm levels, it felled trees tore off the cladding of buildings. the difficult situation due to

rains in the neighboring chelyabinsk region, on thursday there were still 220 residential buildings were flooded. more than 500 garden plots. in the magnitogorsk area , several more snts were flooded, in some places the current was so strong that rescuers had to move around holding on to a rope. the south of russia also suffered from the elements, this is how passengers were pulled out of a bus that stalled in a deep puddle in rostov-on-don. the courtyards were so flooded that only... canopies and cars were sticking out of the water, along with the downpours , a hail storm hit the city, drivers tried to use blankets and outerwear save their cars from damage, in the yards after such an icy bombardment there were snowdrifts of hail, a layer of hail, mixed with branches, leaves,

my little gray car sank there, and rostov summer residents sadly counted the damage that the bad weather had caused, poor thing... on mama, mia, wow, oh my, oh my geranium, and geranium, everything, and roses, everything is damaged, a nightmare, it was flooded all week and... this august in many regions of the country will rightfully become one of the wettest in history. i must say that the past the days of august turned out to be... but wet in many regions of the country, for example, by now in some places in the northwest,

kuban, in the center of russia and prizovye, the volume of moisture that has fallen has more than twice exceeded the ten-day norm, it is worth mentioning the urals and southern siberia separately, here in some places the monthly plan for precipitation has already been exceeded, and here the main contribution to this was made by the volley showers of recent days. imagine, in just a few hours in the novosibirsk region and bashkiria more than the entire norm of rains for august poured in, in orenburg in general almost four. in such a situation, it goes without saying that many areas have broken their absolute records for the entire month. the situation in the urals is aggravated by the extremely wet nature of the last three months. the region has received so much rain that it would be more than enough for two summers at once, so the soil here is oversaturated with moisture and any, even a small downpour

, leads to flooding. the only consolation that can be said is that in almost 80% of cases, after heavy summer rains, a dry golden autumn comes, but we still have to live to see it, and for now in in the coming days a cyclone will rule over the russian plain. sunny and dry weather will prevail only in the southern. regions in the far north, in the middle zone from the baltic to the southwestern spurs of the urals , frontal cloud fields will shift, bringing with them showers and thunderstorms, so we will hear more than once about flooding on the streets of our cities. for example, in moscow the rainy period will drag on from sunday to tuesday, in total during these days the capital will receive up to a third of the month's volume of moisture, and daytime temperatures will drop from saturday... +26 to +19.21, which is a little

cooler than the climate requires. on other topics, not all f-16 aircraft that arrived in ukraine are in good condition and can fly. this news, which subsequently caused a wide public outcry, was published by the polish publication interia. as it turned out, the fighters were not repaired before being sent, and some of them are not ready to fly now , evgeny chishkovets will tell you what is wrong with them. evgeny, how is the kiev regime going to use non-flying machines? vadim, these aircraft will either become donors of spare parts, or will be used to train ukrainian aviation personnel. the first batch of fighters that were handed over to the kiev regime caused some surprise. in a propaganda video with zelensky , the already non-flying f-16 adf, previously

stored in the american desert in the state of arizona, not far from the mexican border, were caught on camera. the davis monthan air force base is located here, one of the oldest air bases in the united states, and it is also considered an aircraft graveyard. for a long time , decommissioned aircraft have been brought here, then they are either disposed of or left here to rot until end. today, this huge site stores about 5. units of aircraft, by the way, about every fifth plane gets a second life, sometimes even flies again, pragmatic americans repair and then sell such machines to other countries, for example, in 2012 , 36 previously decommissioned f-16s were sold to the iraqi air force for more than 5 billion dollars, excellent business, here are at least two machines that were spotted in ukraine, originally from an american aircraft cemetery, this version ... f16 can be recognized by four antennas of a characteristic shape, located on the nose in front of the cockpit,

you can climb into them, you can even start the engine there, but these models are not flying, they are precisely machines for technicians who can learn on them, not far from kiev, there is this school, and accordingly they will undergo training there, plus these machines will most likely try to give out the planted targets so that we can spend our iskanders on them, according to available information. and he was given 10 aircraft, that is, about eight combat machines. two former danish fighters have already been seen in the skies over ukraine. presumably, this is the f-16amlu, which has passed. the netherlands, belgium, denmark, norway and portugal. of course, in no case should these machines be written off. for example,

new pylons for countering missile attacks were noticed on the danish fighters. in addition, the f-16s transferred to ukraine can carry. will change the rules of the game, their transfer is more of a political gesture than serious military aid, for the americans and europeans, of course, the deal is a win-win, got rid of obsolete aircraft, having received the opportunity to purchase new ones, and the territory of ukraine is an ideal place for the operation of recycling decommissioned equipment. the olympics in

paris will go down in history as an example of how not to hold the games, but the french still managed to set a record, or rather an anti-record. there have probably never been so many scandals at the games, and their main source, of course, was the competition on the seine river. how many came out of the water healthy, we will find out from tatyana belova. tanya, how many athletes were unable to pass hay tests. vadim, at least five athletes needed medical attention after. two more after the mixed relay. the belgian team even withdrew from the competition. the reason for the illness of team member claire michel. after the women's individual swim in sineu, the athlete developed health problems. according to belgian media , e. coli was found in michel's tests.

swiss triathletes adrian brifot and simon westerman also withdrew from the mixed relay. they also swam in the hay and also caught. intestinal infection, in addition to this two athletes from new zealand fell ill, one of them hayden wild, who won silver in the individual competition. after the swim , he spent two days being treated for e. coli. the athletes' condition after the swim in the hay affected their preparation for the mixed relay, in which the new zealand team failed, taking the last place. many athletes complained of bouts of nausea during the swim. the canadian threw up live on air, the belgian was hospitalized with symptoms of acute pancreatitis.

in this case, the paris mayor should also accuse microbiologists of lying, who regularly published the results of water and wall tests. since the beginning of the olympics , its quality indicators were within the declared norm only for 2 days; due to river pollution after heavy rains on july 28-29 , triathletes' training events were cancelled. on july 30, the organizers postponed the men's competition for the same reason. on july 31, the swim still took place. despite the fact that the tests showed excess indicators of e. coli and enterococci in september, after training events were cancelled the day before the mixed relays on august 3 and 4, again due to the poor quality of the river water. in fairness , it should be noted that perhaps the seine should not be blamed for all the troubles, because apparently

there were plenty of opportunities to get poisoned at the olympics. british swimmer adam pitty said that athletes eating in the olympic village in paris found worms in their food, his words are quoted in an article by the deal mail newspaper. at the olympics in rio de janeiro and tokyo the food was incredible, but here there is no sufficient number of protein food options, long queues with a wait time of up to 30 minutes. athletes are simply punished, i want to eat meat, i need it for my performances, why should i change anything? i like fish, and people find worms in it. outrage over the nutrition at the olympics was expressed by the athlete of the great britain national field hockey team giselle ansley. she admitted that at... in paris, she came across poorly cooked, almost raw meat in her dishes, this certainly created a health risk. the state duma advised those who fell ill after swimming in the hay athletes to sue the organization.

russian scientists have discovered huge plumes of smoke that periodically rise near the arctic island of benet. all this indicates that an active volcano may be hidden in the ice of the east siberian sea, what threat does it... it was discovered in 1881 during the polar expedition of george de long, which ultimately became the last for the navigator. the island also became fatal for the russian scientist geologist and arctic explorer eduard vasilyevich tol. he was sure that it was in this part. hides a large continent - sannikov land. in 1902, tolya's group reached beneta island in kayaks, but was unable to get out of there. a year later

, lieutenant kolchak's search party found tolya's last camp. the group's tracks led south toward the continent, but the bodies of the missing were ultimately not found. this is how beneta island looks from space, its area is one hundred and fifty square kilometers, which makes it the largest in the de long island group. there are four glaciers on the island, the largest of which is tolya's glacier. the highest point of the island is 426 m. all polar explorers wrote that there is a great siberian polynya that does not freeze in any frost. it starts from bennett island, something warms the water. russian scientist nikolai nakhodkin suggests that the cause of the anomaly may be an active volcano hiding off the coast of the island. in 2022, nakhodkin collected.

and we began to lose each other, this is during the day. in 1972, soviet researchers conducted echolocation of the seabed near bennett island,

then did the same in 1983. it turned out that the seabed was growing at the point where the smoke was coming from. according to nakhodkin's calculations, with such a growth rate, by the twenty -second year in this area a solid rock should have appeared from the water, but the island did not let the expedition members near it. on the last day we were supposed to pass over this point, it was about 3.7 km from our camp, we were supposed to look on the way back, but it turned out that with a calm sea a big wave came and broke our catamaran. scientists believe that the presence of an active volcano in this area poses a serious danger, if it erupts at a time when the sea is free of ice, there will be a threat of... tsunami, so seismic sensors must be installed on all the new siberian islands to monitor seismic activity. the front for further research is huge. and

now our traditional column is a space weather forecast, which we are compiling together with our colleagues from the iranian institute of space research. the sun is in a state of very... on the surface stars are extremely many large centers with large energy reserves. now the situation is one of the most intense in the current year. for example, in may, when a record burst of activity occurred, all events were associated with one center. at the moment , areas are capable of generating powerful flares. more, now flares are observed simply across the entire visible disk, well, for example, in the last week there were two flares in a row higher than the point, and one was in the east of the sun, and the other in

the west. that is, the sun now has enough energy already for such a wide coverage, a couple of months ago there was nothing like this, in the coming week the greatest risks are associated with a very large active region number 3780, it will just come out on the sun-earth line on monday-tuesday, the region is simply amazing in size, so far this center has only one flare of the highest level x, but... it is clear that its potential is not exhausted, the probability of new flares is very high, and since the center is located directly opposite the earth, impacts on our planet are inevitable. what concerning the forecast of magnetic storms, disturbances of the magnetosphere are expected on monday-tuesday, from wednesday geomagnetic activity will begin to decline, although it will still remain at a very high level. models also predict

the possibility of increased activity on... saturday, sunday of next week, meanwhile new large spots are already emerging from behind the edge of the solar disk, which means that no break in solar activity is expected in the near future. that's all, enjoy the weather, whatever it is, goodbye. i i choose rosselkhozbank, it has everything i need, high cashback, profitable deposits , a convenient credit card. rosselkhozbank is bigger than you think.

people who serve in intelligence are not even physically strong, but simply stronger in spirit. a cropped beret is a symbol, that's what he wears, i think there should be a model in everything, people should reach for it. it can't be worse, it can be better this way.

we've always had a motto in life, pushed these people into the doorway and, probably, it's all a dream, and you want to open your eyes and wake up.

in the zaporozhye region, they completely liquidated a fire at a nuclear power plant that broke out due to a ukrainian drone strike. as previously reported by the regional ministry of emergency situations, a non-working cooling system facility was hit, plastic steam traps were burning, according to rusatom, the internal structures of the cooling tower were seriously damaged, fortunately no one was hurt, the radiation background in the area of ​​the station is normal, this is how governor yevgeny baletsky commented on the situation. the ukrainian regime, supported by nato...
