russia 24 we continue the kiev regime is preparing provocations at grain storage facilities, as they said today in the national center for defense management of russia, such information was received from captured ukrainian military so it became. it is known that in the village of e, prosyany for the professional dnipropetrovsk region, ukrainian militants mined elevators, which they plan to blow up in the near future, and in the village of vrubovka in the lugansk people's republic , installations of rocket systems are located on the territory of the grain plant salvo fire from these firing points in the vsus systematically fire at the positions of russian forces, provoking them to return fire. as noted in the ministry of defense, this information once again confirms that the kiev regime is using the scorched earth tactics. workshops for the production of improvised

bombs, large ammunition depots in caches with grenades, and much more, the russian military is now finding in the dungeons of the mariupol plant azovstal, where recognizable militants of national batoz, as now it became clear that the whole arsenal was stored in that number of western weapons. that's all, this obviously remains to be studied for a long time, but so far our special correspondent alexander bilipov has been in the basements of the industrial zone to talk about how those very catacombs look in his report. a real giant of the soviet metallurgical industry here in mariupol is the azovstal plant on an area of ​​11 m². just think, there were 41 workshops and 80 more auxiliary buildings, only canteens for factory workers. there were 22 here, but the main area was occupied, of course, these huge workshops in them and blast furnaces, rolling mills, and raise down dozens of well-fortified

levels underground, which became fortified areas for the formation of the kiev regime, and above all for the militants. the territory of azov was caught outside the perimeter of the enterprise by several underground tunnels at once. by the way, one of them was through this exit, which is now littered with fittings and the militants who surrendered came out. together with the bays of the special forces of the ministry of internal affairs of the dpr, we don’t even go into the bottom of the azotali, but the underground galleries amaze with their size, wide and high tunnels stretch under the whole plant for many kilometers, because they themselves were lost, the cartridges were thrown out to their route. yes, of course, so as not to get lost, because they themselves could get lost. here, of course, the azovstal metallurgical plant is called a city within a city, but also within itself. azov stood up, there is another underground city with its streets , crossroads, an extensive network of passages, messages that were used by the formation of the

kiev regime. for covert movement between workshops to avoid artillery shelling and air raids. each of these tunnels leads to a separate shelter. and each of them had its own purpose in this, they literally stored weapons and ammunition. placers. here are the grenades, please, next ammo a few grenade launchers. shots and this is only a small part of the huge arsenal that was here in the catacombs of azov , and the militants of the kiev regime also had them. this turns out to be a caliber of 122 mm on self-propelled guns yes, and, accordingly , you can get out to blow up a little plastiplastid , you can add or tati yes, as we approached the kaza stood up, ags constantly worked for us, lng worked mortar 120 and the eighty-second mortar worked, respectively, in this room. the militants. azov, one of the warehouses for combat food was located , and there were more than

one or two such warehouses on the territory of enterprises. and at least 10. here, apparently, there is left here, already equipped with a machine-gun belt. and here is this wardrobe trunk from the pzr costinger of western production next to the arsenal. the militants had one of the warehouses where drinking water was stored, and apparently flaws. here are meters wide. this is the biggest thick sheet shop on the call of the stand exactly. we were not the command headquarters of the nationalists from azov. why is it here ? understandably looking. down here tens of meters. and the same amount of cast concrete cannot be pierced, which is not a single bomb with a single shell immediately from the workshop descending into shelters in appearance, an ordinary flight of stairs in some typical five-story building of the railing. only this house was built for her up and down. we are now underground and are descending further, this is exactly what the fortified area looked like. and militants. azov is here at the metallurgical plant. each subsequent

floor, each underground level represented itself as a well-fortified position with firing points from such floors. there could be up to five or even seven in some bunkers militants lived on the most protected lower levels, it was here that they had barracks, coming out of here, militants were released into captivity. azov tried to destroy all evidence of their criminal activities, in general, traces of their stay. here, apparently, was the center of the fire. everything burned out, but something remained. here, look at the camera we have here is the same a flash card, though not, it may have been used, it was just the same for filming staged videos, which the azov people later posted on the internet, showing how they sit here waiting until the blockade and did not wait for the victory, they waited for only one captivity that they did not have time to burn. they just

broke special attention, paying electronics. everywhere. here, we find the destroyed digital equipment. here the phone is broken, it is directly visible that they threw it. this is how the laptop is, or rather half of it is only a keyboard, before surrendering to captivity and to get out of the catacombs, the militants found the formation of the kiev regime. destroyed all digital media , being on the surface it becomes, it’s clear what density was here, fire around the funnels from the shells of the workshop lie in ruins, but even the most powerful air bombs could not cause significant damage to the underground level, here are the visual results of the work of the russian aerospace forces funnel from an aerial bomb, but only the upper ceiling is visible, the blast wave did not go below. and in order to break through at least to the minus first floor it was at this point that it was necessary to drop at least a few bombs, can you imagine what thickness, ceilings and fortifications are here under

the plant. here we see the collector, the sewer from here. could get out. fighter to fire reconnaissance and back underground. we see nearby a huge crater from an aerial bomb. collector is complete. therefore, even with 3000 halyards it was very difficult to take them to the surface here. the nationalists periodically rose not only to fire at our units that surrounded them. well, for example, to get out in the internet equipment for this was on azov became militants. kyiv regime. they were actually autonomous here, they had water and provisions, medicines and electricity. the only thing. what they needed was connection. well, here they got out of the situation, using a portable satellite internet router. here in the trunk of a pickup truck, they found one of these made by starlink companies. the united states of america was on

the surface and part of the food warehouses, many were bombed by aircraft, but even the amount of what was left is amazing, retreating to the territory of the enterprise, the militants of the kiev regime plundered all the grocery stores of mariupol. here are just a small part of the food that they had at their disposal here pasta, sunflower oil , canned food, various from pork. braised stew , canned fish, sardines. in general, the militants have a diet here. azov was quite a diverse now, sappers and special forces soldiers continue to examine azov, they have now been verified no more than 30% of all ground and underground communications. this means that this already dead industrial giant, which has become one big fort for the ukrainian military and nationalists, still keeps many secrets of its former inhabitants. alexander belev sergey eliseev alexei yalding andrey rudenko

and oleg bondarenko lead the azov steel donetsk people's republic in the north of the dpr, the active phase of the liberation, the red estuary, has started, taking this settlement under control should accelerate the defeat of the height group in the donbass and at the moment the allied forces have managed to knock out ukrainian divisions. and now, about half of the city territory, the head of the donetsk people's republic, denis tit, announced the details; this is only 28 settlements, the population of the republic can be considered liberated at the moment. uh, now uh, there is an active phase, the liberation of the red estuary, uh, a division of the russian federation and also a unit of the uh people's militia. now we have already reached there, the city of krasny liman. well, about half of the settlement . there is in our already division, therefore, uh, the rat liman will soon be a liberated inhabitant too. well, further already,

svyatogorsk, well, and then further. 50 paratroopers of the armed forces have laid down their arms or surrendered in donbass in recent days, such information was brought to the people's militia today. the dpr also reported that two platoons of the 115th brigade, the defense forces, left their positions in the avdiivka area. that's where i remember. now there are fierce battles with groups of ukrainian forces, a low level of morale in the ranks of those whom kiev is now sending to the line contact. they also say that the intelligence received, in particular, a report was made public to the command of the armed forces, which states that at least a third of the personnel of the ukrainian army are not ready for service. well, how to raise the spirit of the army , the deputies of the verkhovna rada are offering and will now tell anastasia ivanova the kiev regime stubbornly continues to ignore the obvious collapse of its own army in the mesh telegram channel, a document has been published that proves that zelensky’s boasting about peremoga is a lie in the report written in the name of the deputy commander-in-chief of the armed forces yevhen masyuk said that the

morale of the ukrainian fighters. at zero there is a catastrophic lack of weapons with a helmet provided only every second recruits are absolutely not ready for hostilities, they are deceived and they say that they will serve in the territorial defense of the total loss of ukrainian military personnel from 40 to 60%, it is possible that they had a hand in this commanders themselves. they say the experts did not hesitate to shoot their deserters - those who tried to surrender in public will rebuild before without of any law that such a practice exists in the fat forces of ukraine that the armed forces of ukraine are massive desertion massive from carry out orders mass tasks captured, therefore the verkhovna rada has rejected this law so far, but it is not a fact that it will not accept it, because indeed the situation on front disastrous author. telegram-channel zergulio sergei

kalyasnikov was sent the following document, a signature allegedly by ivan bakanov, the heads of the sbu who order to destroy their own military on the territory of donbass ukraine does not need its people alive, the document says that some special forces were captured. at the same time, returning them there unharmed undesirable to ukraine, apparently, to convey information there either to their leadership or simply for people, so we are talking about liquidation. here, taking into account, in principle, the position of ukraine regarding the prisoners in azov, steel. this does not surprise me, because not only did he peck people there, roughly speaking, at the garrison in mariupol and against this background, a bill of deputies appears the verkhovna rada with a sharp trail of the third reich out of desperation, people's deputies propose to shoot to kill their own military, a separate point was singled out, while without causing death to a soldier, this point of the bill was

proposed to be deleted by the servant of the people maryana bezuglaya. giving legal consent to the death of maryana, the cornerless one made a proposal, quite logical for the elite of the kiev regime, to shoot military regimes that refuse to fight, hold positions, retreat, complain that they suffered heavy losses, no human value life. now in ukraine it is not taken into account, in general, from the point of view of such a worthless value, there is no reasonable question to the bloodthirsty people's deputy in social networks without a corner and on his extremist facebook page he does not say a word about his good initiative, but in the comments under the post, by the way, about american assistance to ukraine they call her a traitor to the motherland, they ask how much she was paid for such nonsense. people doubt the adequacy of the policy and offer her to go to the front herself. by the way, it's strange that without a corner with all her bravados, and patriotism, she didn’t

do it in her specialty, by the way, the doctor on mariana has little information, as it is said, it appeared in politics suddenly after zelensky’s inauguration, the ukrainian media said that the headless bribe voters did not offer any sensible bills in the media space without her openly trolls are called illegitimate daughters. vitali klitschko for phenomenal oratory skills. now we have what we have, we must correct it for them. eh? the most except for electricians and how much it is difficult to find a balance between imports and prices for the population. who would have thought that this elochka-cannibal would cease to be a metaphor, but would acquire a direct meaning, but they did not heed the radical proposals of the cornerless against the backdrop of public outcry, the glad withdrew the project, but

even without a direct order from the deputies, lawlessness and cruelty reigned long ago in the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine and kiev authorities. it doesn't care. the ukrainian military is no longer so charged with ideas when the detachments got into real combat conditions. all the military are crumbling the masses continue to be taken prisoner 115 the brigade near severodonetsk spoke of low morale , lack of weapons and unwillingness to fight, now these servicemen in the kirovograd region pre-trial detention center are alive until lawsuits appear in court about from the parents and relatives of those soldiers whose soldiers were shot before the ranks and in order to release them from those commanders from responsibility. here the rada can adopt such a law, this is such a multifaceted law, and after its adoption, we will understand what is behind such a decision of the verkhovna rada in essence. glad. itself is undisguised, it points to its own mistakes and defeats, which are now

almost impossible to hide, the masks have been thrown off the ukrainian military no longer want to die for zelensky the special military operation will continue until all its goals are achieved and they cannot prevent this, neither western anti-russian sanctions, nor the military assistance that the kiev regime receives from abroad, such statements were made today by sergei shoigu at a meeting of the council of ministers of defense of the country's dkb. situation around ukraine of course, it became the main topic of this meeting, but still not the only one, among other things, shoigu reminded his colleagues. in what foreign policy environment it was decided to start a special operation, the collective west at that time openly demonstrated that it was not intentionally considering russian proposals in the field of security. and the further, the more actively the nato bloc approached the russian borders and fueled the nationalist course in ukraine, which carried a direct burden, including on the population of donbass according to the head, the ministry of defense is now all these facts. again confirmed, fearing the defeat of the ukrainian

troops. the west urgently organized the supply of lethal weapons. a large-scale campaign will be deployed to disinform the world community about the true causes of the crisis, military advisers and employees of private military companies are sent to the country, and the number of foreign mercenaries has exceeded 6,000 people to hold power. the kiev regime uses terrorist methods against its own people. nationalists hold demonstrations executions of those who refused to participate in hostilities. it blocks the exit of civilians from cities, using them as human shields, and tanks and artillery are dispersed in residential areas. at the same time, russian troops are doing everything necessary to save human life and civilian infrastructure in the combat zone , which sergei shoigu also told in detail to his colleagues in the csto of the russian armed

forces. unlike the ukrainian ones, they do not strike at civilian infrastructure. where can they be civilians identified firing positions and military facilities of the enemy are hit by high-precision weapons for the release of residents from the surrounded settlements , silence regimes are declared and humanitarian corridors are created? of course, this slows down the pace of the offensive, but it is done deliberately. to avoid civilian casualties , russia will expand economic cooperation with interested countries, and global trade. already now switching from the west to a more promising direction about this vladimir putin spoke today at a meeting on the development of the transport complex, which, as the president noted, should get rid of red tape and implement projects taking into account not only

momentary needs, but also prospects. infrastructure president notes the money will be used to repair avtotrans modernization of railways and ports. this is especially important today, when the west is tearing up transport chains, talking about the isolation of russia, but russia, on the contrary, is not going to close itself from anyone. we will expand cooperation with those countries that are interested in mutually beneficial cooperation. what is important here is a whole range of issues. this is the organization of a convenient payment infrastructure in national currencies , the establishment of scientific and technological ties and, of course, an increase in the capacity of supply chains. in recent months, the strategic importance of this work has increased markedly by the actions of some countries and their desire to shut themselves off from russia. e, not to close russia, but to close from russia, even to their own detriment, they showed how important it is in the modern world to diversify

transport flows in a timely manner, expand corridors in the direction of predictable responsible partners , russian business, adapting to changes in the global economy, the emergence of new points of growth , logistics chains are being formed, but in order to open up bottlenecks, officials also need to work faster, it is necessary to get rid of any red tape that slows down the pace. draws in the implementation of transport projects is absolutely unacceptable to disrupt the deadlines for creating infrastructure; on the contrary, it is important, as i already said, to speed up the ongoing construction, as well as to speed up the development and launch of new initiatives in the transport sector, including e, it is necessary to actively use the mechanism of parallel design and construction, of course, with compliance with the requirements for safety and reliability of commissioned facilities transport projects are a driver for the development of many southern regions of russia, for example, seaports, makhachkala, astrakhan and olya, the most important

points of the north-south corridor, which will allow cargo to be sent from the baltic sea towards india through the territory of iran, this route has a serious advantage. it is almost twice as short as the usual route through the suez canal and , in addition, the global corridor will make the most of the transport potential of the volga and the caspian sea, of course. these are not only ports, but also approaches to ports. these are the bridges of the road, because there must be bottlenecks that you did not allow us to rebuild the bottom of the volga-caspian canal it is necessary to deepen for more capacious vessels the instructions already given at the end of last year new routes and corridors are extremely important both for domestic producers and for those russian companies that purchase imported products. one of the most important projects of the northern latitudinal route, which will connect the yamal peninsula with the urals and the north-west of russia and provide a connection between the transport system from the side through the portsobbet with the northern sea route, so the development of seaports in the arctic of the far east of the north-west of the country priority, for example, the murmansk transport hub, it's time to modernize. in

addition, the ears are at the design stage. it is important to think over the expansion of infrastructure for years to come. not so long ago, we found sharp, lively discussions on the topic of the development of the eastern range of railways. specific parameters of its throughput yes, there were conditions then, and even some skeptical assessments were voiced then on this account, about the fact that huge funds can be invested in expansion. there are hundreds of billions us rubles for this plan. uh, continue on a new path. and there will be nothing to lead on them. and so, as a cargo base may not be. at the time it seemed that these estimates were not accurate. so to put it mildly, today the eastern direction is the maximum in demand, its loading is guaranteed for years. in the future, experience must be taken into account so that in other parts of russia, too, today we are building railway lines ahead of schedule, taking into account future freight traffic. we are now seeing the same

trends on the southern routes, where volumetric cargo transportation. uh, as specialists say, and bottlenecks begin to appear, i think it is right to abandon the inertial scenario in the development of transport infrastructure, when based on current needs. the cargo base is estimated only from the current ones, and then, based on these estimates , routes are designed and built and their capacity is laid. then we are missing here, if we act, uh, in such a static logic, then we will always be, catching up infrastructure should be guided by the requirements of tomorrow to open space of opportunity for
