about the main events up to this minute in our news release: alarm sirens sound in haifa, artillery is hitting northern israel and drones are flying there. the united states is evacuating its embassy from beirut, while israel itself is launching massive attacks on the gas sector, the region is under complete blockade. about the situation in the reports of sergei pashkov and evgeniy poddubny. all night and all day in the sky.

israeli air force drones and bombers were operating over the gas. tunnels, warehouses, financial centers were attacked, an islamic university was destroyed, a house was turned into concrete trash mohammed deifa, commander of hamas' military wing. the rocket launchers of the brigades from zadin alcosam, in turn, fired a volley towards sddyroto. massive shelling of the ports began in the afternoon. in washkelon, where tens of thousands of russian-speaking israelis live, burning cars and stricken destroyed houses have prevented citizens from moving away from bomb shelters for the fifth day in a row. the israeli army is stepping up preparations for a ground operation in the gaza strip. today a restricted zone around the palestinian enclave was announced; entry there will be a criminal offense. at the same time, the tsal forces of the israel defense forces continue to fight the palestinians;

a group of militants entered the territory of the village of zekim, broke into the industrial zone of ashkilon, and opened fire in zderot. reports of mixed success by the israeli army's special forces unit for the fifth day in a row indicate rather that the military is still unable to completely seal the border with the palestinian enclave. it is unknown how many militants remain in israel. the tension is such that in the city of azhdot the military started a shootout. horrifying pictures of the execution of civilians by hamas militants are revealed. the day before , the military showed the bodies of faraz's dead to the english-language media. i have removed all restrictions. we will eliminate anyone who fights us and use all measures at our disposal. the gas that was there before will no longer exist. kikim militants killed

an elderly couple: an eighty-one-year-old physicist who repatriated from the ussr to israel, back in the nineties, sergei gredeskul and his wife victoria were shot by hamas back in the morning of october 7th. i spent a year in graduate school in israel, just at the bengurion university in bersheva, where he worked. sergey was always ready, with his colleagues, including young guys who ended up in bersheva, to discuss scientific issues, and especially those with those guys who came from the former soviet union, well, a very pleasant person to talk to , calm and friendly, in the same village of afakim, where in total the militants shot more than 260 civilians, another native of russia, thirty, died

four-year-old david lystsov, who repatriated to israel from near chelyabinsk. david worked as a security guard and died while protecting the participants of a music festival who became the first victims of the invading islamists. david decided to take his people out by car and they saw three militants running out of the forest in front of them, and david ordered his guys who were in the car, there were only five, and he ordered them all to run out of the car, and he paused a little, apparently also tried to run out while the guys were running out, and

david was shot, as if, well, perhaps he took the blow on himself, saved the guys, so that they could be taken to the survivors of the massacre of the inhabitants of the israeli south, we are talking about 8,000 people, evacuated deep into the country, psychologists work with them, help is provided to the families of the victims, volunteers, all these people. .. staying in a small hotel on the northern outskirts of tel aviv, refugees. for the last two days , they were transported on special buses from the south, israel, from settlements and kibbudts from the border of the gaza strip. now volunteers come here, bring food, clothes, everything they left everything they needed for life, all their belongings, at home. at least thousands of dead, 3,000 wounded israelis, with more than 300 still in serious and critical condition. more than 350 people are still listed as missing, up to 200 captive hostages taken by militants to the gaza strip. such losses, according to the country's political leadership, make a ground operation in gaza with

the goal of completely destroying hamas almost inevitable. the israeli government press service released a telephone recording prime minister netanyahu's conversation with the american president. joe, i want to give you a clear picture of the difficult situation we face. hundreds of people were killed, more than a hundred were kidnapped, including children, and the scale of this evil is only getting worse. we have never seen such savagery in the entire history of the state, and we will treat it accordingly. tank brigades have been brought up to the border of the sector, 360,000 reservists have been called up to arms, meanwhile, i am following the instructions of the rear services, despite the surge in these days of price, israelis are emptying store shelves, stocking up on water, food, medicine, batteries, so that, if necessary, they can spend several days in a row in a shelter, and such a need no longer seems theoretical to anyone here. sergey

pashkov, alexander ivanyuk, anastasia demyanets, lead israel. the gas sector is already on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe, today the enclave was de-energized, there were backup sources of electricity, people were killed, 60% of the dead were women and children, several thousand more were wounded or listed as missing there is no news, and the israeli air force continues to carry out air strikes, the army is tightening the borders with the gaza strip, howitzers and self-propelled guns... the installation, by all indications, can soon begin artillery preparation before the invasion, which means the number of casualties will only grow, gas is on fire day and night, the israeli air force command acts without rules, israeli bombs are literally laying down the houses of gas residents,

no water is flowing into the enclave, the desalination station is de-energized, hospitals are running out medicines and binding materials. in the near future, surgeons simply will not be able to operate on the wounded in the gas; in general, it’s hell there , real hell, they now want to go for an earthly operation, they have practically erased entire neighborhoods in the gas, we have been occupied for seven years, we are suffering a lot from this occupation, there are losses among palestinian rescue doctors. there are virtually no safe zones left in gaza ; civilians are moving out into the open because they believe it is too dangerous to stay in their homes; they are killing our children. they are killing us, we don’t know where to go, no one feels what we feel. i came

here in the morning and saw that everything around was destroyed, it was terrifying and cruel. the enclave is blocked, israeli planes are hitting the outskirts of the rafah checkpoint on the border with egypt, convoys with humanitarian aid cannot enter gaza, refugees cannot leave the enclave, the humanitarian situation is catastrophic, while as a result of israeli air attacks, civilians in gaza are suffering the most. the militant wing of hamas, judging by its actions, retains military potential. militants of the islamic resistance movement today again launched a series of painful missile attacks on civilian and military targets in israel. explosions occurred in the southern cities of the country, in tel aviv, and the airport was in the affected area. at the same time, hamas continues operations, militants again today attacked israeli military targets near the border with the strip , the situation is worsening in the west bank, israeli security forces are introducing additional units into populated areas near east jerusalem. army columns

armored vehicles and personnel of israeli units entered beitumar - this is south of jerusalem and vanatu - this is a northern suburb. tel aviv is trying. operatives of the israeli special services are making arrests in the cities of the autonomy, artillery is hitting places of deployment, that’s what our compatriots are saying. which are located in the south of lebanon. we hear explosions here, and today they have become more frequent, more frequent in the morning, apparently , i don’t know, military operations, but this is the border itself, we already have our bags packed, passports, documents, cars filled, in the border areas, and almost all the residents there, with rare, rare exceptions, they all left their homes. we moved mainly towards tire or, say, some other area closer to

beirut. hezbollah fighters respond, and more and more actively, with footage of the destruction of an israeli m113 armored personnel carrier. as a result of a guided missile hit, the car is on fire. already another episode of confrontation from a missile system, hezbollah fighters are hitting israeli infantry. but even this does not mean that the lebanese party can open at any moment. iranian corps islamic revolutionary guards and leaders of iraqi shiite factions. this is already a serious sign of a real aggravation. in addition , israel is trying to act as harshly as possible, which only provokes iranian proxies to retaliate. now all the anti-israeli forces in the arab countries of the region in lebanon, syria, jordan, and egypt are mobilized to the maximum, and the propaganda of the islamic movement is working well. perhaps in tel aviv they are betting on fragmentation, a huge chasm in

the political views of different parts the islamic world, but the more blood is shed in gas, the less opportunities the leaders of arab countries and movements have not to interfere in this war. evgeny poddubny, ruben mirobov, african bureau, news. but in the meantime , thousands of people are holding rallies in support in jordan. stanislav bernwald has all the details. that night, the jordanian army began moving its armored vehicles to the border with israel, reportedly a decision made to prevent violations of the border by palestinian groups. another possible the reason for strengthening the border is to prevent third forces, on the contrary, from breaking into israeli territory from the kingdom. for several days now, residents of the jordanian capital oman have been taking to the streets of the city with palestinian flags as a sign of support and solidarity with

the palestinian people and sharp condemnation of israel's actions. a line of people heads towards the al-husseini mosque. it is there that today there is a protest rally against israel's actions towards palestine , a lot of people gather in the hands of the people. palestinian flags, they wave them in support for the palestinians themselves and the hamas movement. king abdullah ii of jordan came under intense pressure. the country is a historical ally of the united states and has opened its bases to american air force aircraft, despite washington's open support for israel. jordanian protesters demand that the country's leadership condemn the actions of tel aviv. we also remembered about abdala the second’s wife. queen rania, who is palestinian by origin, and as experts note, against this background the rhetoric of the

jordanian authorities, where in the early days of the conflict there were cautious in their statements, becoming increasingly harsh towards israel. there can be no stability without a just and comprehensive peace, for which the only way is to create two states. palestine will remain our compass. we will not shy away from defending a just cause. until the palestinian people regain their full rights so that our region and all our peoples will be blessed with peace. on friday , the capital of jordan, like many other middle eastern cities, will host the most the largest demonstration in history, which will gather, as expected in oman alone , at least a million inhabitants of the kingdom, and the king, it seems, will have to respond to the demands of his people. stanislav bernwalt, andrey potap, host amman. jordan. vladimir putin emphasized: a constructive solution to the conflict can be

found exclusively in accordance with un resolutions. the president answered questions from the leading inter-arab tv channel al-ghad. it is necessary to implement the previously adopted decisions of the un security council until the creation an independent sovereign palestinian state, as was originally envisaged . the issue is complex, it is very sensitive, but at the moment, of course, we need to refrain from making harsh statements, and there is no need, no matter what. there is no need to offend the feelings of the people who are involved in this first second, it is necessary so that this does not avoid losses among the civilian population, all actions, if they cannot be avoided, must be selective, and threats and losses among,

nor in what is wrong with women, children, old people, this is known, i think that it is not a defiant position that does not raise doubts for anyone, and of course, the expansion of the conflict must be avoided at all costs, because if this happens, it will have an impact on the international situation as a whole, and not just per region. vladimir putin spoke about the palestinian-israeli confrontation at russian energy week. problems with fuel supplies were also discussed. in addition, the president announced new support measures, including for participants in the special operation. anastasia efimova has all the details. multipolar is not only politics, but also economics, where there are several points of growth at once, and the importance of a country is determined by its ability to defend its technological sovereignty. vladimir putin spoke about this today, speaking at the plenary session of the russian energy week. the head of state

set a number of specific goals with regard to the domestic tech industry, and one of them. this is a priority for its domestic market, let me remind you that the head of state already touched on this topic when he held a meeting on the rise in fuel prices within the country, so today he reminded that all obligations must be fulfilled, including social ones taken within the framework of the gasification program, which will not only be continued, but also expanded. a year ago, here at the russian energy week, he proposed to provide targeted assistance to citizens and the gasification of private houses; the state subsidizes the costs of purchasing equipment and carrying out work on a land plot, in the amount of up to 100,000 rubles per household. about 52,000 citizens with benefits took advantage of this opportunity, including large families and low-income people who were able to quickly and without

high costs connect gas to their home, making life more convenient and comfortable. i propose to expand the list of citizens who can receive subsidies for gas equipment and its installation, specifically to include in this list participants in a special military operation and members of their families, as well as disabled people of the first group, and families raising disabled children. speaking globally, energy in recent years has very often been the source of numerous conflicts, for example you don’t have to look far, the same iraq, which today, by the way, took part in the plenary session, or, say, libya, now there is a new hot spot on the map of the middle east, or rather a new old one, as the russian president recalled, the problem of the unresolved israeli-palestinian conflict , has been going on for a decade, and today it seems to be flaring up with renewed vigor

, however, be that as it may, the civilian population, old people, women, children, should not suffer, they are now... being shot at, and from both sides, what is happening , this is terrible, we understand that the bitterness on both sides is very great, but no matter what the level of bitterness on both sides is, we still need to strive to minimize or reduce to zero, to a minimum, losses among the civilian population, among women, children, old people, if men have decided to fight among themselves, let them fight among themselves. children, women, leave them alone, this applies to both sides, well, whether it will be possible to somehow calm the situation in the near future is unknown, but, but we must strive for this, because

expansion of the conflict zone can lead to dire consequences, iraqi prime minister mohammed sudani called for restraint and recalled that a question that... for many years has not been given the necessary and due attention in accordance with all adopted international resolutions, must be answered one way or another , which means that today the search for a compromise is of particular importance, he also recalled what statements are being made today against the gas sector by official israel, however, he did not quote verbatim. electricity not only in order to humiliate the people who live there, they even call them words that they don’t want to pronounce. this is an insult to all humanity, we live in a world in which the forces of good need to unite, so mr. president, i appeal to

you, as the president of the country, a permanent member of the security council, the un, to take the initiative for a real ceasefire and find a real solution to the palestinian problem, since we cannot even predict the consequences of these challenges for the entire region. it is very important to choose methods, but what concerns the defense of one’s borders, including in the literal sense of the word, of course, this is the sovereign right of everyone, without exception of the state. however, lately there has been a feeling that europe is ready to ignore these rules, otherwise how can one explain the fact that today it is actually refusing affordable russian gas and is ready to overpay three times in order to be convenient for its partners overseas. let me remind you that russian gas came to europe

through a number of pipelines, ukraine stopped one of them, the same with the other poland did. it would seem that europe is not interested in this, so what about europe? and europe is nothing. the poles took and closed emala europe, a huge route, powerful. they took it and closed it, it was their initiative, but germany could have said, listen, you are the biggest donor to european funds, poland, in any case , until recently, was the largest recipient of money from these funds, they could have said, listen, if you take the bait from this hand, don’t bite it, open the routes for us, let the gas go, no, i don’t do that at all i really understand what is happening there, but it is clear that the modern political system ... decisions made, at least in

the economic sphere, whether there should be this mechanism or not, it should, but it also does not work, which is what they fought for, they ran into it. is iraq not afraid to be friends with russia? was this question asked by the moderator? it turned out that no, iraq has the opportunity. sovereign decisions to build relationships in the way we believe are in our interests, and we will not allow anyone to dictate to iraq who our friends are, who our partners are, the russian federation, the state with which we have historical relations, we will soon celebrate the eightieth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations, so iraq cannot forget russia's role in support during... isis, therefore this visit at this time is a message and

confirmation of the course that the government and iraq are pursuing in the context of relations with russia, this concerns the development of relations in all areas of security, the political sphere, the economy, this answer deserves applause. the number of states that not only maintain, but strengthen ties with russia is growing rapidly, and the point here, of course, is not just irrational love for our country, although the common past is valued in many countries of the world, the most important thing, as vladimir putin reminded, is that today our country is actually at the forefront of the struggle for justice, in fact, for the country’s right to independently determine its course of development and set priorities. it is precisely this model that more and more countries on planet

earth see for themselves, and therefore supporters of multipolar a world that is no longer the reality of the future, but the reality of today is becoming more and more. anastasia efimova, lead. to stabilize the ruble, he signed a decree on the sale of proceeds in foreign currency received by individual russian exporters within six months. this applies to companies in the fuel and energy complex, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, chemical and forestry industries, as well as other industries. businesses will also be required to provide plans for buying and selling currencies on the domestic market. the russian army repelled 14 attacks in the ssu. in the donetsk direction, a unit of the southern group. support from aviation, artillery and heavy flamethrower systems improved the situation in the avdeevka area, as the ministry of defense reported, only here in one day zelsky’s formations

lost 330 military personnel and 25 units along the entire front line, about 900 soldiers and mercenary officers. three tanks, 23 self-propelled guns and self-propelled guns were destroyed, including american, british, polish and french. at the dalgintsev airfield, a su-25 attack aircraft was blown up and more than a dozen combat drones were shot down. and the situation on advanced, mikhalandronik. the retaliation weapon 29 nona of the tula paratroopers will now work on the landings around kleshcheevka, leave, the militants do not want to make noise from there, knock out, shot, as soon as the gun reaches the firing position, an enemy drone hovers overhead, but the commander decides to complete the task: shot, paratroopers they do everything very quickly, all actions are brought to the point of automaticity of work in

the ticking area, a lot. we destroy strongholds, trenches, enemy infantry, equipment, they try to respond, look, well, accordingly, a lot firing positions, we don’t stand still, we work all the time from different points, the answer doesn’t take long to come, for them we were like sewing in one place, like a self-propelled artillery gun, it’s very accurate, if you work in skillful hands, then she works in artillery as a sniper. and this is special forces from another airborne formation operating in the same area with guided missiles against enemy armored vehicles and infantry. they destroyed two enemy tanks and one bradley, worked quickly and competently, and accordingly they had a loss in equipment from the heights around artyomovsk is opening, they have already arrived for us. from the heights around artyomovsk there is an excellent view of the mountains. they are under control.

forces of the russian federation, but the militants are constantly shelling, now one fell not far from us, these very heights were the target of the militants’ widely publicized counter-offensive in ukraine, which is now turning in the opposite direction. mikhail andronik, anton musikyan, donetsk people's republic. us and british intelligence services are creating conditions for instability on the southern borders of the cis, the director said. fsb alexander bortnikov. in baku, he chaired a meeting of the council of heads of security agencies and intelligence services of the commonwealth countries. margarita semenyuk has all the details. international legions and militants from 35 countries of the world, for whom the war in ukraine is the same as a course for a young terrorist before the more significant tasks of the usa and great britain - the military development of the cis territories. in ukraine alone, almost 800 militants, 13 european pmcs and nine

paramilitary militants were identified. i hope that you are here to defend ukraine, to fight for ukraine killing russians with their rifles, this is understandable, their allies are shaking the situation in the cis countries in russia, confirming facts were voiced by the director of the russian fsb alexander bortnikov in baku, at the 53rd meeting of the council of heads of security agencies and special services of the state, cis members. in eu countries alone, under the patronage of nato intelligence services, there are 17 training camps. westerners are actively promoting the movement of militants into the ukrainian conflict zone. we have reliable data that as part of the ichkir crimean tatar units, isis and the like are fighting against us. they are also part of sabotage and reconnaissance groups sent to russian territory to carry out

attacks and terrorist attacks. and here we couldn’t do without the same special forces of the british army, who teach how to undermine and kill. so in august last year, saboteurs planned a terrorist attack on the kursk nuclear power plant, and this is the most important node of russia’s unified energy system. the saboteurs planted about twenty explosive devices at klep. in fact, nato is financing the kiev nuclear terror, the supply of heavy equipment, long-range weapons, prohibited cluster munitions, and projectiles with combined uranium are being increased in ukraine, the issue of transferring multifunctional... tens of billions of dollars is being resolved. americans ask questions: why should we finance arms supplies to the kiev regime in such a volume, and pay for the work of ukrainian officials who have been guilty of corruption, at a time when...
