combat missions, the guys play russian monopoly and they read children's letters that are handed to them from there from the peaceful side. volunteers brought letters and fakes from children in the morning; again, cloudy weather helped to communicate a little outdoors, usually here a couple of kilometers from positions more than three people don’t gather, they bring children ’s letters, it’s very pleasant to read them, in fact, children always write like that with their souls, you can feel this whole warmth of soul, the volga and stolyat are a tractor driver by civilian profession, a full-time officer in military affairs, a lieutenant. volga never thought that conditions were difficult here. during the war, he began to write poetry; at the most difficult moment, this became a salvation. but before that i wrote somehow , before the war and before the army in general, i wrote, well , mostly i wrote more lyrical love stories, and now i somehow, well, when the muse will come, as they say. reconnaissance has sent new targets, the fog has cleared, the artillery needs

to catch up, they move on the ground only by running at a decent distance from each other. a 122mm howitzer is being prepared for battle, i use it for guidance... so far , we haven’t come up with anything better than a compass, this is one of the most accurate ways to orient a gun, but then we have unmanned aerial vehicles, quadcopters, and so on , who helps us with orientation already directly when we we shoot at the target and destroy it. on the left bank of the dnieper, artillery operates 24/7 without a break for lunch, just bring shells and give coordinates of targets, in a day the combat crew works out at least three dozen targets. shell hunger has long become a comforting tale for the armed forces of ukraine. the coordinates have been transmitted, the sights are aimed, the guns are ready for battle, and the right bank of the dnieper feels a hunger for ammunition. our guys from the dnepr group. fire!

olga kurlaeva, sergey shcheptev, kherson region. on the night of december 4, the israel defense forces attacked 200 movement targets. hamas is in the gaza strip, while ground units are fighting in the enclave, the army press service reports. earlier, representatives of sakhalp said that they were going to use all possibilities to free their hostages. the topic will be continued by the head of the middle east news bureau, sergey pashkov. about 140 hostages are in the gaza strip, most of them are israeli soldiers, boys and girls, but also among the hostages there are children , elderly men and when the military resumed actions over the gaza strip are continuously played 24/7, israeli air forces are striking

hamas military infrastructure targets across the entire spectrum. moreover, in the first 24 hours, 400 such strikes were carried out; in total, during the war , the israeli military reported hitting 10,000 targets from the air, so the fire canopy from the air allows troops on the ground to maneuver and continue to advance deeper into the palestinian enclave. after hamas decided to stop releasing the hostages, it again began hostilities, the idf resumed strikes against terrorist targets. over the weekend , more than 400 targets were struck, including a large one. now the southern city of the palestinian enclave has become a new hot spot on the map of the gas strip, the israeli military calls it the hamas stronghold, now artillery and bomb

attacks are being carried out on the city, yesterday merkava tanks were already seen on the outskirts of this southern gas strip city. but military operations are being carried out in the north, refugee camps are being cleared there, beitlokhs, sajis and the military are conducting offensive operations, constantly reporting about the destroyed militants and, above all, the liquidation of the leaders of the units of the el-qassam brigade. yesterday and today we eliminated the company commanders of many militants, yesterday morning we began the same process in... the gaza strip, it will be carried out with no less force with no less results, hamas commanders will meet the israeli defense forces everywhere, they will be given a very decisive rebuff we have the ability to do this in the most thorough manner, just as we did it decisively and thoroughly in the north of the sector

gas, we are doing this now in the south and continue to consolidate our achievements in the north. meanwhile, relatives of the hostages who remain in the gaza strip are demanding immediate solutions from the government to return their loved ones home, they are afraid that a large-scale operation is daily endangering the lives of israelis who remain captives of the islamists, we can... destroy hamas later, but many the hostages will not live another week or month, they must return home now. i hope this ends soon, in a few days there will be another ceasefire, and hamas will begin to understand that it doesn’t matter whether you are a man, a woman or a child, everyone needs to be released. with the resumption of hostilities in the south in the gaza strip , the situation in the north of israel in the area of ​​the lebanese border has again deteriorated, and firefights with lebanese militants have resumed there. every day there is a message about the sound

of an air raid siren in the northern cities of israel about mortar attacks on the positions of israeli troops, just the day before they reported 11 wounded tsali soldiers as a result of an explosion mortar shell fired from lebanese territory, israel responds with powerful strikes against shiite positions on lebanese territory, so the situation remains tense. a message arrives that the israeli army has launched an active invasion of the south of the enclave; our special correspondent will tell you more about the situation. the stop in the gas sector is still extremely tense, there are really intense battles and strikes in the south and north as a result of the latter. israeli army in the vicinity of kamala advanovali hospital

at least four people died, and nine more. israel continues to control the volume, quality and logistics of the medical teams that work in the gaza strip to overwhelm the healthcare system. it remains impossible to provide necessary health services to those who have suffered as a result of israeli aggression and the lack of therapeutic, clinical and human resources. meanwhile. medical personnel deal with hundreds of wounded people with very few resources after each massacre. in the north and in the south of the enclave, israeli aircraft are destroying residential areas, the day before the palestinian ministry of health stated that more than 15,000 people have died in the enclave since the beginning of the conflict, we woke up to the sound of an explosion, went out to see, it was my uncle’s house next to our house, it was destroyed, children died, there were three... dead, several wounded and missing, of course, the blow was struck without any warning, poor people, they were all

peaceful. meanwhile, israel continues to attack the city of khanyunis from all sides, using both artillery and aviation. previously , israel claimed that it was in this city that high-ranking hamas military personnel were located; as a result of massive strikes on the city , dozens of residential buildings were completely destroyed. under the rubble there are hundreds of bodies of the dead that cannot be removed from there. israel does not differentiate between the old and the young, everything is the same for them, let the world see and know that this is a crime, this is not normal, the whole world is silently watching what is happening, god is our only help. we are calm we were sleeping and felt shaking; there were no warnings. a shell fell on a nearby area, all the houses around were damaged, including ours. about five dead were found here, many were injured, the houses here are located close to each other. well, a very important point is the epidemiological situation in the south of the gaza strip, where forced migrants from the north

of the enclave are heading, it is truly a critical situation, doctors and un representatives are talking about this, outbreaks of various epidemics may begin there in the near future diseases. since forced migrants from the north and other parts of gaza continue to flock here, this place is becoming overcrowded, children, adults, and children here are getting sick... it’s hard to get treatment, the situation is extremely difficult and completely unbearable, more and more people are becoming refugees, the incidence is growing, viruses are circulating more and more actively, we are all exhausted. the lebanese-israeli border is also restless; last night there was a large-scale rocket attack by lebanese hezbollah on military barracks and idf strongholds in northern israel. arab and lebanese telegram channels report numerous casualties among the israeli military. stanislav. andrey potapov, inna loschenova, conduct beirut, lebanon.

in a referendum, venezuelan citizens overwhelmingly approved the authorities' intentions to annex hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of jungle and part of the atlantic coast to the country. but it’s true that the neighboring goyans consider the disputed territory theirs, as well as the oil-rich area located there. with details anton dadykin. glory to the brave people. ermo, respecting the law, dignity and honor, these words of the national anthem of venezuela, the country's president nicolas maduro sang along with hundreds of supporters at a rally in honor of victory in the consultative referendum, according to the national electoral council, about 95% of participants in the plebiscite approved the government's intentions to seek by all means the return from the porno territory of gayquibo. the people of venezuela spoke loudly and clearly, this victory belongs to all the people, they united for the sake of our homeland, the people decided how to respond to the provocations and

impudence of guyana and exson mobile. he has shown the way and we are set to begin a new powerful stage. because we have a mandate from the people and carry out their will. the main fight was an application to set an example for citizens; president maduro voted first at 6 a.m. local time. to maintain the proper mood of voters , the aircraft of the venezuelan air force aerobatic team demonstrated the word x in the air, that is, yes, the national electoral council extended the work of the polling stations by 2 hours. we inform the people of venezuela that the overwhelming majority of voters answered: yes, according to preliminary 10,554,320 votes were cast. it turns out that about half of the country's voters voted, they, in particular , agreed with the government's intention to include the disputed territory of guyana and sikiba into venezuela as a separate state.

caracas claims 70% of the territory of what is now guyana, about a third of its population. sport. over 160,000 km of jungle continues for more than a century. in 1899, the paris court of arbitration transferred these lands to the then british colony of guyana. in 1966, venezuela concluded the geneva agreement with the already independent guyana on demarcation of borders through direct bilateral negotiations. but the dialogue reached a dead end and george town filed a lawsuit against caracas in the international court of justice. venezuela does not recognize his jurisdiction in this case. however, on friday the un international court of justice banned venezuela from taking any action to seize esequibo. gayana considered this interim decision a victory. but the court said nothing about holding a referendum, which was called its own success already in venezuela. in the meantime , the parties are exchanging blows in the information war. on november 24, the president of guyana demonstratively hoisted the national flag

on one of the highest points of esequibo. on the day of the referendum, on the same prudently left. i want to assure guyanese that they have nothing to fear in the coming hours, days and months, of course we will increase our vigilance, but we are already working around the clock to ensure that our borders remain intact and the country lives in safety. the interstate dispute over the vast jungle turned practical in 2015, when it was discovered oil fields with a potential reserve of 10. billion barrels. guyana granted the axonmobile company a concession for oil production on the sea shelf, also in the disputed area. on september 19, similar licenses were awarded to six more transnational corporations, but it seems that the last straw for caracos was the november announcement by the same exxonmobile about the actual start of production at one of the sites. a neighbor of venezuela and guyana, brazil

is calling for restraint, but according to unofficial data, it is simultaneously sending additional divisions to its northern one. if there is something that latin america absolutely does not need right now, it is the conflict between venezuela and guyana, we cannot think about using force, i hope common sense will prevail on both sides. guyana is the only english-speaking country in latin america and maintains close ties with its former metropolis, great britain, as well as the united states. what is happening in venezuela now is preparations for national elections next year, maduro is trying to gain popularity, we are very we are closely monitoring the situation in guyana; it is a democratic partner and very important for the united states. george town has already intensified contacts with washington through the ministry of defense. guyana hopes for the support of the international community, and the un international court recognizes that the proceedings on the territorial dispute

could continue for years. anton dadykin, vesti. with you. russia and turkmenistan discussed the foreign ministers of the two countries at international platforms today. sergei lavrov met with his turkmen colleague in moscow. we also talked about the main issues of bilateral cooperation and confirmed our commitment to developing a strategic partnership. today we also have a good opportunity to talk about interaction on international platforms, there are many of them where we interact, our positions are very close, in a number of cases they coincide, this includes the un, of course the five and other formats, including the movement of friends of neutrality, which ashgabat anticipates, on december 11th you have... the next meeting of the loading group, we will definitely be worthy there presented. we also note the high

dynamics of political and diplomatic interaction between the two states, and the united nations organizations and other international platforms are precisely those platforms where turkmenistan and russia work quite closely, actively, jointly, and work on serious, important problems that are facing today on the global agenda. in russia, they will not ban abortions, much less introduce penalties for them. valentina matvienko today commented on calls for restrictions in in this area and news from some regions where abortions have already been excluded from the services of private clinics or proposed to introduce fines for their performance. according to the head of the federation council , a woman should not be deprived of the right to choose where exactly to have an abortion, and especially since over the past 5 years the number of abortions has decreased by 25%, however, the numbers are still very

alarming, and of course, we are all thinking and working on solution to this problem, but i am absolutely sure that no prohibitions, no... campaigning, no pressure, no, no criminalization legislation in this area cannot and will not be able to solve this problem, and the state, therefore, will definitely not follow the path, in my opinion, now we need to reduce the intensity of the rhetoric, transfer this discussion to the plane of common sense, this year in moscow... 20 large sports facilities , most of them are already ready, four are at the commissioning stage, including the nika complex in the textile workers district, it will receive its first visitors at the beginning of next year, today

the construction progress was inspected by the mayor of the capital sergei sovyanin, this year we will build 20 large sports facilities, of which 16 have already been commissioned and four stages of commissioning, including textile workers here in the area, so i think that residents will be pleased to exercise, exercise in this wonderful gym, swimming pool, game rooms, gyms, so i i hope that in the next month or two it will be fully operational. high-quality communications and access to the internet for all citizens of the country, businesses of the domestic industry, the government has approved a strategy for the development of the communications industry until 2035. the emphasis will be made on a secure infrastructure implementation of technologies. anna lazareva has all the details. high-quality communication services for people , regardless of their place of residence. the industry development strategy for
