that is, for the third second place, maybe a little easier, for the first place you will have to fight very hard, sweat, well, that's what sport is for. i think that a thousand young residents of mensk today will help to decide on the kind of sport with which he will go through life, and young people are, of course, future champions, and holding such days is a very good popularization of sport in our country. on the olympic day of the past main games of four.

of the achievements, i managed to participate in all sorts of competitions, now we will have the following, i i will do canoeing, i do swimming, we come here every year, i really like it, i want to win a watch, overall it's very cool, here's the atmosphere, the task, everything is very cool, a serious struggle unfolded within the framework of the olympic quest, of course for such prizes, who wouldn't want to compete, a smart watch, a bluetooth speaker or a power bank, the mood is wonderful, we were waiting for this day, so

we came with joy, i see that you are participating in the olympic quest, yes, we are trying, how are your successes, successes, well, we have already gone through a lot, but this year it is somehow quite more difficult, that's it so fighting spirit, i hope we will finish, we will have time. olympic day is a great opportunity for coaches, who knows, maybe somewhere in the crowd a future olympic champion is walking, we have an olympic version of tekwando, we represent this sport, children must strike.

all the information about the sport, so it is very, very important that we have the opportunity to organize such a wonderful event in the center of minsk, on the city day. belgroprombank also did not stay away from the holiday, the location is bright, the activities are varied, the gifts are cool, what else do you need for a great mood. we made our own map design, played jenga, also visited a bike shake, in general, we had a great time. the most important thing, the most important question, what gifts can you get for this. you can win a pillow, anti-stress and many other different gifts. legionnaire is a special status in sports, which requires, first of all, a strong character, because foreigners essentially come and take bread from the locals, this is especially evident at the top level. belarusian volleyball player anna davyski has been holding the top level in italy for several seasons now, spent the summer season in indonesia, and is also raising a child with her volleyball player husband. so we met with

sanya and learned about the intensity of her life, you live there, yes, it turns out in the belarus hotel, you play here, yes, well, such a cool place in general, yes, such a feeling, you know, you leave the hotel in the summer, well, it seems to me that such emotions can be experienced now, yes, when you walk, you see your teammates, yes, this path along this park, the company itself, that is, the girls with whom i go to this training are very dear to me, dear to my...

a lot of young players have come from the changes, i was very, very pleased with the level and ambition in general of our friendly necessary team, friendly team, it is very comfortable here, the girls try to listen. and i try to listen to them in some moments, we try to look for some key moments that we can change before our first games, in principle yes, it seems like the team is very young, even here there is those who are older, there is the same tanya markevich, but she also adapts to us, tries to joke with us, so that there is such a, a friendly atmosphere remains, there is no such hazing, there is no such pressure, nothing, i am very glad that we have quite a lot of young players, due to this i think that the national team has a future, a great future. and now we are here, also one of the beautiful places in minsk, here you look here, the first thing that comes to your mind is how wonderful life is, really, and you want

stop at the moment, sometimes you even go to training, you have time, as if from the hotel to the gym, it's 10 minutes, we can spend 20 minutes there, with my daughter there, if we think, we can spend 30 minutes, because we can feed the ducks there, look, observe nature, and really this feeling of calm, that everything in life is good, it's wonderful, when did you begin to understand and appreciate this, when this awareness came with the birth of your daughter, yes, that's exactly the turning point, yes with the birth of your daughter, when you understood how fleeting your time is, how much you need to value it, every minute spent with your family, every minute spent training? i think that in terms of my outlook on life , my family and my daughter changed me, and italy changed more in terms of my outlook on volleyball, i go out on the court more relaxed, i

smile a lot more, maybe somewhere it will seem that there is less seriousness, but this is just such an ease that i learned in italy, i am very glad that i learned it. i would also like to show this to the girls ease, due to which it is easier for me to play volleyball, to try something new, i am not afraid to make mistakes, i am glad that i have the opportunity to see that italian life and to come here every year and see it, because they are both wonderful, two wonderful mentalities, but they are absolutely different, it is interesting, the last season was quite difficult for me in the sense that it was impossible not to win, because i got... from the team that took second place in the championship, got into a slightly lower level got into a team in which it was necessary i can, i'm not afraid of this word, play some kind of leader, that is, lead a team, this is something that i can't prepare for so easily, that is, you need to come there and learn this, due to

which i began to show something and somehow lead the team, due to this ease and relaxation, that is, i changed the attitude inside myself about the fact that i can't be constrained. your child is growing up, tell me in connection with this, has it become easier or more difficult for you to somehow distribute time correctly, it has become more difficult in the sense that, unfortunately, on my husband i can rely less on mine for the reason that we live in different cities, that is, the first 3 years, when we lived with my daughter, we lived together, some force majeure events happened there with the same illness of the child, i always had my husband as a backup, we always... at different times training, because training in the same gym, now everything, i have a nanny, i have me, what are you discovering in your child now, already a more conscious person, yes, that is what surprises you most when you see how growing? i am amazed by the sight of what is in the diet, what unkind bright people, and really,

what i want to preserve in my child, i hope that other mothers will be able to do this, is to preserve this bright feeling , this kindness, this love of life, well, in general , cheerfulness, this, and from what is manifested now, this is the character, she really has an athletic character, with us, with our strength, with her efforts, she will direct this character in the right direction, i think that she will achieve great heights in any activity that she wants, rich a big career ahead, where are you, where would you live after your career, well, at the moment, yes, i like it better after your career.

we are belarus, we are a different country, yes, we are close , we are neighbors, but we are really a different country, otherwise no, nothing offends me, we have a cool mentality, by the way, the italians are also for... note, because anka klimets also played in italy, they like our character, our behavior, that is, they are also delighted with our mentality, just as we are delighted with their mentality, that is, they really very different, but in their own way wonderful, i just want to capture you here, it's not like there's a picture, well, in such an environment, here you are, that's what again the same calm, yes , yes, wonderful, wonderful, beautiful, very calm, really. i never want to rush, even if i have a game there in 20 minutes, yes, soon, i'll be frank, when

we played there for a season, then you come to the national team right away without a vacation, it was of course hard for us, sometimes there was this tension, personally i will now speak for myself personally i'm feeling tense, oh, the national team is coming again, now i'll have to get going again, but when they took that away from us, they took away the opportunity to participate in such competitions, to show volleyball, to show eh volleyball to the kids, i felt a little sad about it, we have a lot of motivation to work now on this court, to see each other, and we really are happy to go out to work, because we have at least a small opportunity, at least a little, to play a couple of games with each other, even if it's not at the european level, then there is not europe, not some official games, but at least something, that is, now we should be grateful to something small and believe in a bright future, we really hope that soon we will be able to play in some official games, because our team deserves it. do you believe that

this so-called warming should come? i really hope, i really, really hope, i would really like it, we are making a future for children, we are making a future, thanks now to the same minsk woman who is participating in russian super league, i think thanks to them the children's interest has not yet disappeared, i also want to help at least with these two games, these small ones... and you are called up to the national team for these two weeks and you go to every training session with trepidation and

think, god, thank you for giving me the opportunity to play here these 2 weeks, even if it will be 2 weeks, everything, thank you, it was interesting, thank you, well done. our region through the eyes of foreigners. and so clean, how everything was different, so neat, the building, the food, the supermarkets and so on. belarus for me is a wonderful country, i can say. how did they end up in belarus and why did they stay? i came here from venezuela 8 years ago because i fell in love,

my husband, andrey from belarus and offered to create new lives here, i feel like a happy person, my initial choice, which i accepted in 2005, yes, to go to belarus, i now understand that it was very correct, the project view of belarus, belarus definitely helped me to reveal my strength, and now... watch on the belarus 24 tv channel. good borders belarus with svetlana borovskaya - this is a fascinating acquaintance with unusual people. how quickly you turned me from a sharp, businesslike, businesslike, into a gentle, timid creature.

to pass the test of water, height successfully finish in kopoli the most avid fans of extreme running gathered again and tested for strength, both themselves and their equipment, because kopel race has always been famous for its obstacles. this year the organizers came up with something new, here are many liked by runners, but not their shoes. olesya chuchura, more details. overcome reeds, crawl under barbed wire, swim in sneakers for several hundred meters , all for the sake of getting such a medal at the finish line, and of course, remembering this day for the rest of your life, the kopal race is not for the faint of heart, however, let us just show you why you should love such races,

the emotions are the most positive, you know, a week ago the minsk half marathon 21 km. today kopal it was overcoming in fact yourself, your own emotions, fears, well, in general it's really great, fun, always this finish line, these last 100 m, it's always as if all your resources are collected inside and you're like, hurray, there 's water somewhere, there's a medal somewhere, there's such an atmosphere here, these swims are fantastic, it's something with something in sneakers, in the mud, and then we're so fragrant, i just can't convey to you. this smell, starting clean, and finishing tired up to your ears in mud, but with a wide smile. trail runs know how to squeeze out the maximum strength. it seems like a standard distance - 10 km, but you won't be able to run it lightly. kupl reis has long been famous with their obstacles, this year the organizers even have something new in store.

new, we offered them swimming, this time, they will swim in sneakers, it is about 160 m, they will have to swim. and carrying concrete twelve-kilogram balls. swimming in sneakers will definitely get into the top favorite tests, but for a long time now this rating has been headed by a mud pit and barbed wire. our film crew is not the first time at the race in kopyl and last year we heard about the healing properties of the local mud. this time we decided to make sure to find out from the athletes whether they feel? health improvement. the reeds grew by 2.5 m, well, a whole forest of them, so, itself, but this really means, the mud is healing, here itself, i think that the participants will like it all, most of all they liked it with the mud pit, with the barbed wire, this is a very interesting, funny obstacle, the most difficult, probably still just liked the climb, probably, most of all

i was worried that i would lose my watch, and so, everything else was just awesome, you have hands. i'll go to the bathhouse, i already think that i'll feel it, but i can smell it, running without sparing the strength of my sneakers - that's definitely a dig. flight, but whoever you ask, no one regrets it, and many have already tested their equipment, these are specially prepared sneakers for trails, they are for such cases that you don't mind, i've had them for eight years already, and i use them exclusively for these swamps, mud, they, believe it or not, survive, i'm already waiting for them to tear, i'm already terribly tired of them, but they

don't tear, yes, i ordered new sneakers, trail ones especially for the fall, so... these sneakers have already outlived everyone that can! even very young running enthusiasts were able to test themselves, and the one and a half kilometer distance also had its surprises in store. it wasn't very hard to run, because my dad was running next to me, he also used to do track and field, and he's not in great shape now, but when i have races, he just becomes a fierce athlete. water, but it's cold, very refreshing, then there was such a high big mountain, we climbed it, well, went down, then another plus... there was a hill, we had to drag tires, all this was of course it's a bit difficult, but when we got there, there were such great emotions, it wasn't that hard to run

, it was harder for me after all this, when i had already run to the finish line, just to get away from it all, but i liked it, the buy-race will not leave anyone indifferent , it will make you fall in love with extreme running, if you want to check it out, we are waiting for you next year here in kopel. that's all we managed to tell you about in the night edition of the arena program, and as promised, you asked, we fulfilled, from now on the arena program will be aired twice a week on the first information on mondays and thursdays at 18:30, which means that professional and amateur sports will only be twice as much b

gurevich semyon sholomonovich, commander of the telephone and cable platoon of the 107th guards communications company, guards lieutenant. in july 1941, he went to the front. guards lieutenant semyon gurevich. particularly distinguished himself during the crossing of the dnieper river. on the night of september 25, 1943, guards lieutenant gurevich with four

signalmen under enemy fire in a boat swam across the dnieper, and having laid a cable line, established communication between the regiment command posts and the division. when on september 27 , 1943, a group of hitler's.

like most ancient cities in eastern europe, vitebsk arose at the confluence of two rivers, the western dvina and the vidba. according to legend, it was founded by princess olga. the late vitebsk chronicle of the eighteenth century says so. in the summer of 974, olga, having defeated the yatvingians and pechenegs, crossed the dvina river with her army and spent the night. she liked the mountain and she s'. it sounds beautiful, but there are numerous inconsistencies. the official date of death of princess

dates back to 969. on the other hand, all the early dates are very conditional, plus the copyist of the chronicle could well have made a mistake. however, it is hardly possible to unravel all the secrets of the great city, but it has fallen to lift the curtain on some of them. where would you advise us to start our journey around the city, i asked the old-timers of vitebsk this question, they all, as if by agreement, named: the annunciation church, resurrected from the ruins. this, as they say here, is the most sacred place in the city. the nature of the temple's construction for belarus

unique. dolomite blocks alternate with two or three rows of plinth, a byzantine-style brick. plinth means flat. the peculiarity of the brick is that when it was thrown, it did not crumble like a modern brick, it only rang out. the secret of its strength has not yet been solved. if we go inside the temple, we will not see the staircase leading to the choir, the thickness of the walls allowed the ancients to hide it. a unique situation for... the territory of eastern europe, two completely different parishes are located literally 10 m from each other. the church of the annunciation and the church of alexander nevsky. the church of the annunciation has endured a lot throughout its centuries-old history. it was rebuilt, then again took on its original appearance, survived many wars, but most of all it suffered during the godless times of khrushchev. the temple was ordered to be dismantled,

bulldozers and tractors were brought in. and they began to methodically beat on the ancient walls, the moscow and st. petersburg intelligentsia intervened. sergei mikhalkov, at that time, he was the editor-in-chief of the satirical magazine fitil, released critical article: vitebsk thundered throughout the soviet union, and the annunciation church was left alone, but by that time only 1/3 of it had survived. i wonder what the wise and far-sighted prince would have said about this. during the reign of prince algerd , there was not a single popular uprising: the city turned from a small wooden town into a fortress, the territory of the principality doubled, it was one of the largest and most powerful, the blood of algerd, the lineage of igail's son, still flows in the veins of all european monarchs. by his order. ancient

vitebsk was surrounded by a stone wall, along the perimeter of which stood such watchtowers. the remains of one of them have been preserved, where, i will show later, but for now i see a landmark and i will definitely not miss this beauty. a unique creation of architecture - the holy resurrection church in the style of the late vilnius baroque. if you look closely at the appearance of the temple, you can see a lot of interesting things, because the baroque style is in fact. this is the style of metaphors. what do you think the architects wanted to convey to their descendants in the language of stone? see on the temple has wavy lines. they speak of the amplitude of our life. not everything is smooth under the ruler, is it? there are ups and downs. and the figured front does not remind you of anyone. take a closer look. a praying man is kneeling, two openwork towers, hands raised to the sky with a plea for help. these views involuntarily tear you away from the ground

and ... take away infinity, well, let's return to algerd's watchtowers, the next stop is the dukhovskoy kruglik, meet the dukhovskoy kruglik, a reconstruction of a defensive tower from the 14th century during the time of algerd gediminovich, let's take a look there. what do we see? the original foundation of a stone tower, i repeat, from the 15th century, the remains of defensive walls. how well did they build back then? there are also portraits of prince algerd and his wives, ulyana of tver, princess maria, and igor durov's brush. my question of the day: why is it round if it looks much more like a square? it turned out that in algerd's time the towers were octagonal, which is why they seemed

round from afar. well, shall we move on? many of vitebsk's attractions are within walking distance. every city has its symbol of freedom. in vitebsk, it is the city hall. the first city hall on this very spot was built 420 years ago. the building is made in the classical style. about the tower with baroque elements, at the very top there is a weather vane in the form of a boat running on the waves of time. today, the regional museum operates in the city hall with a huge number of unique exhibits, thanks to its ancient and rich collection, it has become a legendary place not only in tourist vitebsk, but in all of belarus. the largest collections of nomismatic items are striking and it is no wonder, our the country is a kind of safe, in which

banknotes of different types are stored. in terms of the number of valuable finds, belarus today ranks first in europe. sometimes treasures were found in completely unusual places. a local ornithologist discovered unique coins. in a magpie's nest. in total , 38 treasures can be seen in the vitebsk town hall. by the way, this silver magnificence weighs about 200 g . the neck grivna, for some reason twisted into a spiral in the form of a bracelet, is presumably of scandinavian origin from the swedish island of gotland. today we have already touched to the unique byzantine masonry of the annunciation church, this slab was given to the museum after. the explosion, which i have already told you about, on the slab there is graffiti from the 19th century with a mysterious message from the past, we see a byzantine cross and an anchor of hope, used by the first christian missionaries

for the steadfastness of faith, and also an icon of the virgin mary, a two-meter coat of arms of vitebsk, cast in bronze, greets and sees off visitors to the town hall. the vitebsk coat of arms is special in heraldry. there is practically no other like it anywhere else in the world, it depicts the image of christ the savior in profile, and under him a bloody sword. why? everything has its explanation: in the 16th century, orthodox vitebsk became part of the polish-lithuanian commonwealth , the catholic state, with a secret intent the coat of arms was granted. so that the eyes of the orthodox would turn towards the vatican to the west. christ is depicted in profile. the bloody sword symbolized. the power of the vitebsk castles, the expression your words yes to god in the ears here acquire real meaning, everyone can hiss in the ear of the almighty his cherished desire. they warned us in the basements of the town hall,

it is better not to enter the mystical place. once upon a time there were interrogation rooms with racks and other terrible torture devices. but the opportunity to touch the unique masonry of the "century since the very first town hall built on this site was stronger than any warnings. our subtle natures did not feel anything at all, but the camera operator's headphones did a trick, got stuck in the camera tripod, so much so that it took half an hour to free them from the iron captivity. what is this? they say at the director alexander mita's, in the basements of the town hall he was planning to shoot an episode of the film chagall molevich, the equipment completely... broke down, so we were lucky. one of the most striking architectural monuments. holy dormition cathedral.

the temple was built for more than 30 years, the long period is explained by an unexpected factor: groundwater, the monks had to make drainage. old-timers of vitebsk from generation to generation. from mouth to mouth pass on legends about underground passages in the assumption mountain leading to the other side of the western dvina. there is no passage. this information has been repeatedly verified. in the complex with the cathedral once this two-story building was also part of it. it was built at the turn of the 17th-11th centuries as a public school. later , the alexander gymnasium for men opened here. during the great patriotic war , the german sd service was located in this building. the basements of the vitebsk theological seminary are soaked in blood, unbearable pain, suffering, and at the same time, the strength of the human spirit, and this is not an allegory: the prison of the secret field police performed the functions of the gestapo, hunger, torture,

suffocating cries, how terrible were the last days of these people's lives, trying to leave at least some memory of themselves, underground fighters and civilians wrote or scratched inscriptions on... the walls, frankly speaking, make your hair stand on end with horror, if only there were rows of those who try to aestheticize fascism here.
