putin spoke at the plenary session of the russia sports power forum. this year, perm is hosting one of the most significant events in the country's sporting life. in his address to the participants, the president touched upon the topic of the ban on the participation of russian athletes in the olympics and other international competitions. he called this approach ethnic discrimination, contrary to the very nature of the olympic movement. international. thanks to some leaders. modern international

olympic committee we have learned that an invitation to the games is not an unconditional right of the best athletes, but a kind of privilege; it can be earned not by sports results, but by some political gestures that have nothing to do with sports at all, and that the games themselves can be used as a tool of political pressure in relation to people who have nothing to do with politics, as gross, in fact russian ethnic discrimination, such approaches contradict the very nature of sport, but we are sure there are values ​​that cannot betray, cancel, exchange for something or sell, one of them, of course, is sport and its unifying force, this , in fact, is the whole point of international sports

movements, here is another statement by president yabutovsky, we will pay special attention to mass sports. our task is to involve 70% of russian citizens in systematic sports by 2030, that is, to make sports the norm of life for 93 million people, of all ages and health groups. we create all the conditions for this, combine the possibilities of education, medicine, culture, we will ensure the widest possible availability of sports infrastructure. russia understands how important it is to preserve the traditions of sports, but at the same time it is certainly open to everything that is better, new, advanced, to what is popular with young people,

which is why our idea is to hold competitions that combine classical sports and e-sports. we called this innovative format, unprecedented for sports, but in tune with the new digital era, the games of the future. now to the situation in the middle east, more than 200 people are in captivity radical hamas. these include residents of israel and foreign citizens. this will be reported to you. for the israeli army , according to them, the figures are still inconclusive, meanwhile, this morning, british prime minister risha sunok flew to tel aviv after joe biden. our special correspondent, alexey konopko, is monitoring the development of the situation in the region. indeed, rishi sunk today continued the series of highest-level visits here to israel; at about 9:15 his plane landed here, and rishi sunk himself managed to make his first statement. this

unthinkable horrific act of terrorism, i want you to know that both the united kingdom and i stand with you, i am very much looking forward to meeting with the president and prime minister of israel, and i hope the negotiations will be productive, as we heard the order of his trip, sunok himself said, but what exactly will be discussed, of course, is unknown, but it can be assumed, based on the analogy with the visit of joseph biden himself, that a narrow meeting of the military was held with him. cabinet and, as israel's channel twelve reports, it is there that the israeli country stated that a ground operation in gas was inevitable, after which, around midnight, a second meeting of the narrow composition of the military cabinet took place and the details of the ground operation could be discussed there. this is the first time the president of the united states has come to israel during the war. i talked to him about the horrors we had been through, the terrible pain of loss and grief that engulfs everyone.

we have achieved something extremely important, making a huge contribution to our security, a huge help in the field of security to the state of israel, assistance on an unprecedented scale, this is even more. israel decided not to interfere with the delivery of the minimum necessary amount of humanitarian aid to gaza from egypt, but only if it does not fall into the hands of hamas and if all the hostages are released, but it is interesting that, according to yanet, the headquarters of family members of these same hostages, opposed this decision. none of us wants to live in a world where there are old people, babies, children. and civilians are kidnapped from their homes, this is not the world in who i want to raise my child, it makes no sense that my grandmother is an eighty-five year old woman who has been in captivity for the last 11 days, i ask you mr. biden, do everything possible to bring them home, we cannot wait, those whom hamas

captured, we need them at home, all the hostages must return home, today the army reported on the liquidation, by this time there were already four members of the politburo, hamas also wrote today that they managed to destroy one of the commanders of the anti-tank groups, well, very the situation in the north of the country is seriously deteriorating; a field hospital is being set up in the galilee region to possibly receive victims if the situation worsens further. alexey konopkov, konstantin, lead israel. german defense minister boris pistorius arrived today in beirut on a surprise visit amid the escalation of the arab-israeli conflict. he is expected to meet with german military personnel who... are part of the un mission in lebanon. meanwhile , the first humanitarian aid shipments from around the world began to be sent to the gas sector. our special correspondent in the region, stanislav bernwalt, with details. israeli airstrikes on the gaza strip do not stop

, they continue to be hit by aircraft, they also hit residential buildings, they hit schools, like yesterday, but this was the strike that was dealt last night. israeli aircraft hit a gaza residential building, as a result of this strike eight people were killed, six of them children. sahal said that within 24 hours he had carried out strikes on hundreds of hamas targets. as before, the catastrophic situation in gazia is acute in the humanitarian area. convoys into the territory enclave, joe biden boasted that this decision was made with his direct participation. we want to deliver as many

trucks as possible, i think 150 or so, not all will go through the first tranche, if there is a second tranche, we'll see how it goes, but the point is that if hamas starts. help from civilians, then this will come to an end, because we are not going to send humanitarian aid to hamas, this is a commitment that i have made myself. so the point is that elsie deserves real praise because he was very kind, when he agreed to this, well, it’s worth saying that from russia, the first flight , the russian ministry of emergency situations, departure to egypt, will deliver the most necessary things, these are medicines and food, the day before throughout the arab world and not only, by the way, the arab world passed protests in support of the palestinian people, condemning israel's policies towards the palestinians, a huge number of people came out in various cities around the world, for example, here in beirut there was a very serious, let's say, riot, but it came to a point of clashes with the police, protesters

tried to break through to the american embassy, ​​but many thousands of about 3,000 people came out in aman, this is the capital of jordan, there are already several... trying to break through to the israeli embassy, ​​they succeed, well, everywhere, in fact, the police use force, these include batons, water cannons and gas, and even rubber bullets. iranian leader ibrahim raisi said that those responsible for the murder of hundreds of people in a hospital in the gaza strip are known and must be severely punished. those responsible for the gas hospital explosion must be brought to justice. iran. people, muslim community throughout world, all people demand that all political ties with the zionist regime be immediately severed, ambassadors expelled from the countries, and the embassy closed. we continue to monitor the situation here in the region, all the latest news is on air on the russia 24 tv channel. stanislav, andrey potapov, valeria
