or miraculously destroyed roads entire urban areas. an apocalyptic picture of the house is taking shape like a card and so throughout turkey and syria, the sixth most populated turkish city of gaziantep, in fact stuart from the face of the earth damage catastrophic at the top of the adiyaman city hall building at the bottom what was left of it shocked us the largest disaster in centuries since the verzidzhane earthquake in 1939 the epicenter of the earthquake at 7.7 points was determined in the area of ​​the firefighters, as roman masha affected thousands people in these shots, turkish rescuers from a destroyed house carry a frightened girl nearby in their arms. at the father's rescued boy, people are pulled out of the rescuers and volunteers, but there are no specialists enough roads every hour, affected under

the rubble since last night. the first shocks of almost eight points were at 4:00 in the morning and dispersed in a dozen cities of residents who managed to flee to the street, the rest were captured, someone recorded a video and reported about himself thanks to mobile communications , someone was found by voice during the analysis blockages. i am still at a loss and do not understand what happened all of a sudden. we felt the house shaking, the children got scared and started screaming. we haven't had anything like it for over 30 years. russian woman marina took dozens of pictures. as the chaos began , the growing rumble and flashes. she saved with the child her house went cracked and the priests were forbidden to approach him by organized help points throughout the city. but to be honest, they are organized in such a way that they are located very close to the houses. it's just, well, tents with drinks and food

and not really, it's clear how this can protect, seriously, the waves a night wave originated in the southeast of turkey and already in the afternoon there was another earthquake of the same strength a little north of the epicenter of the first. the second wave demolished what remained in general after the first one in the turkish darbakir had to be stopped in search of the victims, but one of the crash buildings collapsed on the air. yes, the fragrant collapse of the roadbed has gone underground somewhere. somewhere it swelled up and due to the earthquake, air communication here with the east of turkey was suspended. there closed immediately by you international airport. one of them in the province to roll. it's damaged there. the only airstrip. also currently does not accept civil flights and vesiante air harbor, humanitarian and infrastructural catastrophe. it may well

develop into a man-made one in turkey in the same province. hut and gas pipeline blown up, flames visible for kilometers in syria destruction at an oil refinery there was a leak in the north of the arab republic almost destroyed 30.000, the city of harri andi crossbow i have four children and my wife we ​​slept peacefully at home and when the earthquake started, we immediately woke up, we immediately ran to the exit. we lived on the fourth floor barely. we ran the house collapsed, glory. god, we were only crushed by the door, and we almost did not suffer, but all the other tenants died a terrible video of the little boy, the only one who survived in the apartment, was crushed by a stone fold. and this is the ruins of the city of sarmat in damascus , but according to the available information. e, there is no destruction and, on its own, it also functions normally. as for the already russian citizens living in syria, such information has not been received - the walls,

the most beautiful medieval citadels, were damaged. olep, it was built back in the tenth century ad, inside it was a rich city with palaces, mosques, baths and tombs , and the turkish fortress, created even during the existence of the heltic empire in the second century, was destroyed by rome. it acquired its recognizable appearance under emperor justinian, both affected citadels are included in the world heritage list. unesco has a lot to do to restore them. first of all, it is necessary to assess the damage that has been done to restore these monuments will be quite difficult and likely. it will be a very long process of footage destruction. in the top news, the world media begin their releases with the tragedy in the middle east taking place live, they are saving children their help , the heads of forty-five

states of russia offered one of the first countries of the ministry of emergency situations to go to turkey in syria, our military already cleared the rubble in the afternoon rescuers from azerbaijan were in kazakhstan and the eu are ready to help turkey, israel sends a humanitarian mission to syria. big risk to the affected area is in for a series of autoshocks aftershocks people are, uh, panicking why? because there has not been such an earthquake in turkey for a long time. but we went home, uh, circumstances due to the fact that we don’t have a car, let’s say that everyone is now sitting in cars waiting for the exact number of dead and injured can only be estimated after a complete analysis of the rubble. at the moment , more than 2,000 people are listed as victims of the earthquake alexander tickets. vitaliy kamazin

efficiently as possible, supporting the infantry offensive. this powerful weapon, designed to destroy the fortification, a direct hit destroys and it is clear that the enemy is in the trenches after such an impact, well, it is extremely difficult to take the initiative, the russian forces own on the strategically important sectors of the front, the battles are successful in artyomovsk, settlements on the outskirts of it were liberated. here we go with the commander of the assault battalion, the famous volunteer assault groups, destroy the artillery with reconnaissance, honor them with a fake special ammo and slowly destroy them. this means that the enemy suffers huge losses throughout the logistics, literally filling up the gaps in the front with the bodies of their ukrainian artillery soldiers. trying to hold back our advance. even now, he will be arriving constantly with shells in artillery duels. now it's business as usual. at

the front. our military uses various tactical tricks. moved to new positions. you move to the belt and wooed in the vicinity, the solidarity threw back the enemy in artyomovsk, fighting along the front, maneuverable artillery crews move. tulip is a powerful weapon that terrifies the enemy. at the same time, a priority target for the enemy , therefore , strong support for the front is constantly moving from one position for a long time, help is constantly being moved and from the rear it is brought to various units every day all the necessary things, warm underwear. uh, uniforms sleeping bags food. all this much needed at the front and will be used to win. and victory will be ours. i assure you, the fighting is going on all along the front, calm. i'm not afraid of artyomovsk in full swing, and this city is key in the battle for the donbass nikolay dolgachev, this oleg

by almost 40% who did not want to work with us. we we see that they have a lot to lose. this change of direction made it possible to save production and jobs, moreover, the average salary for the company increased in no categories. it's workers has grown above the average traditionally. yes, this is our, uh, main contingent. last year. they have worked very well machinists, real white bones the elite of the huge army of railroad workers the eight-hour working day is respected. the next one, but last year there was really a lot of work, which made it possible to almost completely restore the pre-crisis level passenger traffic and even found additional reserves for the program of support for combat veterans. we have such a project of our non-thrown ones. we're involved in tourism and we've, uh, agreed with the department of defense. uh, we have a soldier who was

wounded, who underwent rehabilitation with their families , can use this service for free and travel in the train hotel format. and the russian railways company helps refugees transported more than 60,000 people collects humanitarian cargo for the residents of donbass and this is not to the detriment, investment activities mastered 883 billion rubles. there are more high-speed and double-decker trains. they are already traveling to 60 cities for the construction program on the eastern training ground , this territory of baam is the most difficult weather conditions, rugged terrain in general. overfulfilled. they also worked out the technology of heavy-duty movement of double trains with a length of more than 2 km, in winter latitudes, you directly ask the most important questions when it is below -35. we are already introducing restrictions on loading, it is easier there. uh, respectively, we form lighter compositions precisely in order not to

crumbled uh, piece of iron. well, a completely new direction this year will be built 1.400 km of quantum networks. the main task is to ensure the comprehensive protection of the digital economy. so what is attention, thank you. here's not only. transport is supported by the plans of rzd to renew the rolling stock, complete a number of directions along the central transport hub and launch traffic in the murmansk region on the opposite bank to the new port of lavna. it solves a lot of very questions and on the fact that this is the exit to the ocean in practice, and then further reloading goes to ships to ships and environmental solutions are also very important for the city, mooring facilities. lavnas are ready in the port area. almost 80% of the railway is being built now

, the track is being laid on the site of the future terminal dmitry petrov anna kolpino natalia gubina has been leading the russian segment for the past two years. the iss will actively start now, the state of the station allows you to work on it for several more years, namely until 2028. this was announced today by the general designer for pilots complex and systems of russia, vladimir solovyov, such a decision was made at the council of chief designers of rkk, before that, the energy was planned to operate the russian segment of the iss until 2024. the space station can continue until the age of 28, this, of course, requires certain investments of financial resources, this is certainly, but nevertheless , the flight can be continued until the age of 28. previously , we had such permission until the age of 24

inclusive. the most powerful earthquake occurred today in turkey syria, its echoes have departed in many neighboring countries. at the moment, the number of dead is already in the thousands; the amount of fat, most likely, will still grow, since it will take more than one day to sort out the rubble; moreover, seismologists predict a series of strong shocks. vladimir putin expressed his condolences to president erdogan and president assad and offered help russian rescuers have already set off for the disaster area. the minister of defense of the russian federation ordered and the grouping of russian troops in syria is providing all kinds of assistance to the victims in syria western well, let's try now contact vladimir movatskov, who

is in turkey right now volodya good evening. although it is difficult to call it kind, because terrible tragedies are human destinies and, of course, well, i think that often they don’t even remember that there was an earthquake in our memory. e such such strength and on such an area, yes, we remember stepanakert. we remember many other terrible earthquakes, but they were more local, and here the area that is involved is terrifying, if now we are talking about thousands, then i'm afraid that even, well, it will be possible to confidently say in a few days that we are talking about tens of thousands of dead. what is happening in turkey how can you help the people of turkey? well, in fact , a really terrible tragedy. uh, terrible, a tragedy that carried a large number of lives. uh, footage that comes from the southeast of the country. they are already dead and this is about one and a half thousand already known

dead and about 10,000 injured. in fact , the numbers will be much higher, because the removal of debris, but only just begun, in fact. uh, forces from istanbul, ankara, antalya are being drawn there from absolutely all regions. moreover, i walked quite a lot today, and in the region of the south of the country it so happened that yesterday i was in the regions where the earthquake actually took place today, but close enough from there. and today i am in the south of the country, where these sticks were not felt, that is , in the anatolian region as a whole, and the tremors were not felt, but everything that is east. uh, that is, this is alanya, even where russian tourists go. quite often i i am silent about the adania of many other cities. there it felt quite powerful. uh, the center was in the area. uh, hotia in the gaziantep area. uh, kahraman, marasha, hamad, murash

generally reminds, uh, some terrible shots. eh, the horror of such horror films. yes, if you look from above, there are a lot of buildings, if you say most of the buildings are destroyed, uh , to one degree or another, these terrible shots. we are shown that the number of victims will, unfortunately, be much greater than it is. here, if you walk in almost all cities today in turkey, uh, everyone donates blood for the dead, there are very long queues for the organization of the red crescent. the queue, well, according to my observations, the average is constantly in the region of 25,000 people, even in small blood donation points and er, in fact, tremors, apparently, aftershocks will continue. uh, because that's where it's moving on for the country. this is a huge tragedy. turkey officially requested assistance from all international organizations, including

the north atlantic alliance, which is interesting, not moreover, erdogan said that this is the largest earthquake since 1939 in the country and, er, turkey is ready to accept any help , it is fundamentally important that one of the first countries that responded to this request of the turkish republic even before it was made was russia a could have offered to send uh their moe uh their uh, their rescuers. e here in the zone e of this tragedy, as well as its medics, turkey agreed with this. right now the rescuers are flying here. e, s. uh, so the situation is somewhat complicated by the fact that everywhere is damaged to the full extent and highway and takeoff. stripes, and in general, in principle, according to the results, we will probably understand that almost all the buildings are in the largest cities. er turkey er, in the southeast of the country damaged to the full extent, the seventeenth storey

houses, folding how so the house of cards is, of course, terrible. ah, tragedy. uh, and it was virtually impossible to prevent it. although uh, of course there are seismological services. in turkey there is, but the fact is so called. this is something like our ministry of emergency situations , which is engaged in research in the field of emergency situations. eh, personally. here yesterday. uh, in the evening upon arrival, i observed uh in the anatolian region, standing uh, the ship of this very service. he did something here . e, apparently, e, exactly the same ships are now in the ports of samsung and closer to the syrian border. e. perhaps this is planned. yes, perhaps there are different conspiracy theories here . the turkish media have already begun to actively discuss the issue of the fig base. uh, around um, which is actually in the area. and there, as you know, perhaps

tactical nuclear weapons are still stored, and there are very a lot of what is called on the subject of conspiracy theories, but obviously. e that this is a very big tragedy with great consequences, because the author of the shocks continue. i do not move towards the center of the country, they move towards ankara, and already in the center of the country they felt an earthquake of the order of five points, but also. uh, of course, this is uh in big cities big cities. in the center of the country will affect much worse in general, of course in turkey the atmosphere is rather calm, but tense from the point of view. here's how to help. we began to collect, so to speak, a blanket on a blanket. here the prices went up and they began to collect radiators. we are used to treating turkey as a country where it is always hot, but this is not so in the southeast of the country now it is minus 2 -10 and

people, as they say, in what the mother of the head lived on the street during this very earthquake, who managed to run out began to collect blanket, there is a whole scandal on this subject, which means that the prices for a blanket for heaters have already begun to be investigated, and so on. ah, besides, of course, gaziantep, for example, is a famous fortress. second third century on the world heritage list. uh, and the walls are damaged. the world heritage, so to speak, is under threat. uh, these events, uh, influenced the entire domestic political situation in turkey , stirred up. and this is fundamentally important. because elections are coming up in turkey on may 14, and against this background, it is fundamentally important how the authorities behave. erdogan has actually taken all the responsibility now. uh, because it was initially quite easy, but still increasing criticism of

the rescuers that they did not immediately start collapse. uh, to the analysis of the rubble on the spot, but erdogan took things, what is called a blow to himself. uh, parliament, left his job for a week. uh, there's a communication problem across the country. uh, because everyone calls to find out how their relatives are there. eh friends. there, on the spot, the connection actually does not work. uh, there are damages in these same communication points, so to speak, that provide, yes, towers, uh, and communication. uh, now they are trying to establish through mobile e portable devices. what she is directing. and, of course, those same rescuers uh who will arrive there in turkey declared a state of emergency of the highest level and uh, really the fact that the turkish republic. well, still quite a self-sufficient country.

today i turned to international organizations for help - this shows the degree, yes, the complexity that has encountered, and the country for the first time in many years, vladimir thank you very much, well , our sympathy, of course, is with the families of, uh, the dead and injured. god forbid that the tragedy of the turkish people come out with minimal losses, but you you know, all those theories out of town too. well, let's see, time will tell, yes, the tricolor is too strong of course, of course, although the covid showed the same thing, that in admiring the conspiracy theory, it turns out to be much more meaningful than sometimes the explanations that international ones give in the case of an organization. yes , the western political elite, meanwhile, of course, shows a fantastic level of degradation. they are much more interested in walking around the carnivals, making fun of colleagues, than

taking care of their own people. here a citizen said to joke that if she dressed up as a leopard costume, they would have to wait weeks for permission to travel abroad , for some reason they do not notice any historical parallels with german tanks in ukraine. the zherlitsy of all power more there are struggling to build up an army waiting for the supply of new weapons and, by the way, are preparing for a new bridgehead for a war with russia, even if it develops into a third world war, and what it outgrows us, the 37th world war has already been announced by the leader. he, who said that it is obvious that the conflicts are growing. i would like to draw attention, however, to i take it, it seems to me that these idiots do not understand what they are playing, it seems very funny to take. well, hush, it will go with you right away , your insides will manifest. well, let's giggle, and

when the bombing of german cities begins. are you going to tell your people that you're a fool all giggled, and you think that will not start. that is, you think that you can send german tanks with crosses to our borders on our territory, and putin said. putin clearly and clearly said, we will respond not only to armored vehicles or what? you idiots do you think that your phrase, as some citizen from france said no, well, we don’t violate anything, we don’t violate anything. we do not believe that we are participating in this. what difference does it make to us, what do you think? it should be your concern what we're looking for. here, try to say something with a dagger falling on you that the daggers counted incorrectly. everything will be completely different. quite different and generally you need to understand. here i am in belarus , i understood this especially clearly. look at the guys who are preparing for siberians who are

great well done they are using now in in many ways, our experience and at the training grounds are being dealt with gradually gradually, but drawn in. and when the siberian divisions went, it is for those who know history, they say, there are many. the men are somehow drawn in, but the russian person treats the war in a different way, a european for a russian person is a war. if you like, he settles in it, he gets used to it and begins to live in the war until victory until victory so not yesterday, you would have strained, before it's too late, not the great german people who come out and protest,

but the political yesterday is not up to the beat different and question to the great german people, what kind of shit rules the whole of europe i don’t think that the driving force behind european colonialism was anything other than a greed for profit, indigenous peoples were considered scum, outcasts who needed to be wiped off the face of the earth for nazism, only one thing is important the nation of the lord hitler promised the very aggressive policy by which it would be possible to divide the world anew in almost all of the thirties and
