here they are accustomed to a peaceful life, and here we are to blame for the war. and yet they even traveled abroad for 8 years, went on vacation. there are shelling going on. god bless him guys somewhere. where is the war, how far is it. and when they felt it, they immediately remembered it was possible, it turns out, it's scary. there, in the fourteenth, they still drove him in french at the beginning of the war. they are proving that everything is wrong with you there. i, damn it, we are shelling. you, you understand, he says, it was you who watched tv on us. i am there live. how do you know? i live there, i see it all. i am participating in this. here you are talking about 1,500 km. how do you know? so now i’m on tv, now we pass the place where the border checkpoint between the dpr and the territory

controlled by kiev used to be without stopping. here you can still see traces of battles in the building, broken windows. and before they had to stand for several weeks, the ukrainian military demanded bribes, and then they sent the cars through the minefield , andriy says that's all. i'm not stupid, blocked off entry border. we were banned from the dpr, they didn’t let us through, for money we went to the checkpoint , a car drove out to the ukrainian one, where the car was. here is the most or 200 hryvnia. that's what you want, but under 200 hryvnias and such a path in the field is narrow, also under the right hand, which is inconvenient to drive is not visible. here

you will miss your business. you yourself blew up nothing the first time you got passed, driving home. i would like instead of road signs there are still anti-tank hedgehogs and signs with the inscription families. beware of mines. well, now we the former ukrainian checkpoint was moved to the territory recently liberated by russian forces, apparently, there are signs here that it was mined. therefore, we are moving columns, what is called a rut in a rut, let's go? go to the side of the road. it's dangerous. and until recently , in general, this section of the road was closed; they went around it, settlements in the neighborhood. well , now, apparently, the front lines have moved away and become relatively safe. here move

the road opened on the road meet, burnt civilian vehicles and padded military equipment. many of those drivers. who works in the donetsk lugansk people's republics, too, more than once. they turned out to be on the verge of dying next to each other at once, this is the most twice. i didn’t even realize that these were mines , i immediately thought the wheel fired once in donetsk in the city center, the arrivals were not expected at all before , andrey recalls, it was a busy , demanded route, which was reconstructed for euro 2012 and which connected industrial donetsk with agricultural kherson resort berdyansk and wholesale mariupol we have here it's all agricultural or this is the very port area in mariupol and metal was transported there and bridges were blown up. it can be seen that during

the retreat of the ukrainian army bridges were blown up and now we have to. the technical one can tell the passage to move. peaceful life will come in this territory and in moscow the roads will be restored and patched up, right? winter crops are turning green along the road. the farmer went out into the field on tractors. those who live in rural areas. nothing seems to have changed in the stores. be healthy at the gas station in the mangoush queue for gasoline. here it is a scarce commodity, as well as building materials. southern windows,

because we did not survive in the winter, all our windows are broken, plastic, plastic, all windows are broken. and people also ask for clothes for children of years they will need to collect things for school. here, let's say, the idea is to put on shoes, they are growing. yeah, well, that is, there are more or less adults, yes, things, but children need more. yes, children, yes children, they grow, yeah, let's say that it was still good in the fall. now it's already mine, thank god like god has a smell. yeah, we have several arrivals around the edges was. well, no one was hurt, there is a little house, which means there is a lot of glass there. someone got some sleep. there are a couple of these same grievances. you have some kind of power earned nothing. this is how the central street, the city of mangoush, looks like,

only a few houses suffered from the hostilities, the entire infrastructure is intact. i and this is the port of the city of berdyansk, its famous spit with boarding houses and rest houses. shops cafes work here, as before. local residents are preparing for the tourist season and hope that it will take place this year. with such to live on to work, in the meantime, the city accepts refugees from neighboring mariupol to an apartment with

a spring, of course, shoots from all sides , they are interested in what is most of all now. how to survive on 1934 hryvnia in any way? but for two months they lay down remained the same, she did not change. yes, but it won't change. completely untouched dual terrain. we are right now berdyansk left for primorsk ahead, melitopol cherry blossoms are a classic picture of a peaceful life. true

, the wind farms are frozen in the wind, there is only equipment that serves them, apparently, turned off. now this store does not live up to its name, there are old stocks of products on the shelves. well, this is what it usually looks like. there is now a village shop in the area. there are a few loaves left, sausages, it is one loaf of bread, by the way, in the morning they are delivered by these loaves, but by the evening there are few empty store shelves, not only food items are needed and everyday goods. just such as washing powder, toothpaste soap. we overcome another hundred kilometers, we drive past orchards and enter melitopol here, as well as at each entrance to a large settlement there is a checkpoint, it checks documents, inspects the unloading cars, and the cars are also being watched under the supervision of the military

, the cars will go back under escort. a previously empty warehouse is filled with groceries, a food convoy. they again gave the opportunity to work to employees of wholesale depots and stores. thanks now. here i see the cars go. from donetsk transitional. they gave us a corridor to deliver products to us, when the hostilities began, the townspeople stocked up on food, but now many have run out of them.

a little later, food was distributed free of charge through humanitarian aid channels by volunteers, and a lot of delivery came from crimea. we had brought both potatoes and uh condensed milk, they brought both sugar and pasta. well, in general, everything is everything that stew without an elevator and that's it. these are volunteers. they are humanitarian free of charge, but handing out. yes, they handed out to people for free, if you drive along the central streets, you can see that most of the shops are closed. this is not only due to the fact that there is no goods, many residents of the city left and the new administration stopped their business for a building that develops and the russian flag and a copy of the red banner of victory hopes that they will return soon. people half of the people left here, already gone. half of the people flowed, what

where? who is in the crimea, what is there, zaporozhye who is in poland, in general, they ran away from everyone who went there, that is, you need to talk about it somewhere. there is one percent left, probably 50, which goes to hryvnia to the shops that work. true, the sellers agree to sell me for rubles. you will change there when you open it. because there is an exchange office in the market, but it closes early in the city has a strict curfew and has even begun to pay pensions in rubles. our entrepreneurs can work both in hryvnias and rubles, depending on the need. uh, our banks today accept hryvnia as revenue. eh, businessmen. well, in general, the only thing that we are waiting for is in the near future cashless payments, which are planned literally there within a month that they will go to medicines. this is the problem of drug medicine. this is problematic because

here i have children, let's say. such here drugs come with him examination. and i don’t know where to pass it, they keep it, how we are selected and bombed calmly, everything is calm, the locals are haunted by the ukrainian military, they are sending rockets to the city. ukrainian shoots down that's so normal. in your country, these russian troops do not oppress relations, talking about politics about events that have shaken the way of life, they do not stop either in the market or in stores, the locals are trying to build their lives. and for this they need guidelines for the future. at the same time, it remains to be seen mistakes of the past, heading towards joining nato,

ukraine violated the declaration of independence and principles, according to which the budapest memorandum was formed, which guaranteed territorial integrity and security. life goes out to those who themselves fell under the shelling of the ukrainian army, but, nevertheless, they continue to do their job to bring the inhabitants of these regions products and goods of the first need.

you are a very close person since childhood. are you sure what you are doing? that's right, the contour, the offensive, the country's leadership is waiting for us to film such a reportage camera. must know what i love. with such material, your report from the

creators of the film the battle for sevastopol, we can find out the truth with our own eyes?

hello, on the air, the senate program and today we have a special episode on monday, our country will celebrate the great holiday victory day at this time we honor the feat of those who brought this victory closer, we we remember all participants of the great patriotic war. we remember those who returned from the front, and those whose relatives did not wait, we remember those who forged this victory in the rear without exaggeration. in every russian family. there are heroes, their names are passed down from generation to generation. unfortunately, every year there are fewer and fewer veterans of the great patriotic war, but their stories remain in the memory of the children,

grandchildren , and great-grandchildren. russian cities and abroad. today, on our air, the senators will share the stories of their heroes , relatives who forged a common victory at the front and in the rear. 4 years ago, i became interested in the fate of my cousin grandfather and insert fasolevich sannikov , who died near moscow in december forty-one, i began to look for his grave. i found a mass grave where he died and it turned out that there are 100 names out of 360 heroes. we were not buried in this mass grave among these statues of my

grandfather. and i went on with ministry of defense. we developed an algorithm that made it possible to establish the names of those soldiers of that war buried in mass graves with the highest degree of certainty, and we first did this on a grave in the village of spas-zaulok, klinsky district, moscow region, where evstafey fasovich sannikov was buried and with him we have restored the names of another two hundred and eighty- four heroes of that war. and last year, on may 9 , we opened this monument, where now almost all those who lie in this bratsk grave. but then i realized that this is not all that

my evstafe fasovich has. sannikov was, dear, brother. the same great-uncle of mine, carp fasovich sannikov, who also went to the great patriotic war, who also died in this war , died in august of forty-three, and who , in the same way, ended up in the same way, indicated on the plates of the mass grave in the village, than the snake near kharkov of that part , which should also be immortalized and already have the algorithm that we developed with the ministry of defense. we went the same way, though this time without having opportunities to rely on cooperation with the archival units of the ministry of defense of ukraine, for obvious reasons, 40 km from kharkov is a village than a study. but we found 127 more names, in addition to

my carp fasovich sannikov, and relying on normal honest decent people who live in kharkov and near kharkov, we were able to do the same by the liberation day of kharkov on august 23, 2021 last year. we have restored 127 additional names. here is the passport of this grave , initially 420 buried were indicated there. of them 252 unknown now out of these 252, you can safely take out 127 names restored on the slabs of this mass grave and of course, i was ready to go to the opening ceremony of the new memorial. we agreed with the leadership of the federation council that they allow me to take this

risk, it is clear that kharkov is august 2021. this is the territory, softly. let's say our unfriendly ministry of foreign affairs officially requested the ukrainian foreign ministry about the possibility of my travel for humanitarian purposes to a mass grave in order to to perpetuate the memory of his grandfather, without any politics. without doest without check-in. even to kharkov , just to this village, than a snake. lay flowers, well, we received a response note from the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine , i don’t even want to comment, but i have to do this, it’s clear that there are no signs of politeness. this shows respect, and so on. just for our request. here are three answers. the first answer is your kosachev’s entry to ukraine is indefinitely closed by such and such a decision of the president of ukraine from the eighteenth year. ok then. i am this i didn’t know this could be limited, the ukrainian authorities did not limit themselves to this. then

it starts, but i don't know antics or buffoonery. what to call it, especially on such a sacred topic as the memory of the heroes of the great patriotic war , because the second paragraph of this note informs me that the sanctions against me can be lifted subject to the de-occupation of crimea and the withdrawal of russian troops from the south-east of ukraine and the compensation of ukraine in all the damage that was inflicted on it by russia well, and thirdly, it is reported here that, i don’t know why they started with me, that from now on , these notes that are sent by our embassy or vid to the ukrainian authorities in foreign languages, in this case, we are talking about the russian language , are no longer subject to consideration. we received such a mocking answer and i could not come to the grave of my grandfather on august 23 last year, but i hope that i will definitely do it. right now, these days, in about those places in the village area, than the zhovka of the zmeevsky district.

kharkov region, a special military operation is underway, there are fights and i. i hope this area will be freed from neo-nazis who do not allow people to come to mass graves, who do not allow or try to forbid people to remember that war, remember its heroes. we will definitely do this, as we have already done what we have done. we restored the good memory of these heroes, both on the land near moscow and there in the region. kharkov and we will continue this work, because the perpetuation is exactly the same in accordance with the algorithms that we have developed with the ministry of defense. expecting more than five million unnamed, buried in mass graves of the times of the great patriotic war, the heroes of this war out of a total of 8.5 million 3 1/2 million. 5 million are buried under their names. nameless.

now there are already 412 people with a minus, or rather with a plus, whom we indicated by name in the village of spas-zaulok, the moscow region and in the village, which is tough for the kharkov region. looking at this photo of my grandmother. lyudmila leontievna her maiden name was manevskaya, then there was sergienko, this is the name of my mother. here is my grandmothers. 30 years young beautiful and her life was like that of children. these war years. probably very difficult , i want to say, literally the current period, when, unfortunately, she is already with us no, but i

never knew, but it turned out that she kept her diary and literally 40 years ago wrote a certain appeal to her diary. to us for future generations. having told a little bit about the story of her difficult life that she had, she never knew that her grandmother was keeping a diary. i never thought about what i would read. and she never talking about the war period. and even the post-war heavy, probably, told extremely rarely, and then only when we asked and answered my question. well, why don't you say anything ? she said that i don't even want you to know about it. about how difficult and difficult the difficult military, and then very

difficult post-war years were. but one such, probably the most vivid story that she nevertheless told me during her lifetime. and which was then revealed a piece of her life in this diary, i would like to share when my grandmother was 17 years, they are together. with her family, she has three sisters and a brother. they lived, well, practically this is western ukraine, poland, the city of barysh, they lived there only because her dad was sent there as a factory director, as 2 secretaries of the regional committee of the cpsu in order to organize certain work, my grandmother, my grandmother was already after college after school a teacher of russian.
