the bird above the star is not ours, not ours. therefore, therefore, carefully, carefully take it somewhere. the star is a farm on the outskirts of the village of barki, where instead of a large-horned one, there are ukrainian militants. for several days our eyes have been tracking the lair from a bird's eye view, making sure that the enemy inside has hit the base. the enemy's main line of defense here, since the road. goes to the settlement of plekhovo, from plekhov there is enemy reinforcement, its rotation, ammunition supply, now all our assault groups are conducting a final cleanup of this forest, they are gaining a foothold here on this line. the road to plekhovo is also under control, the last trip of this pickup, that the fresh rotation in the spring a party of militants, was stopped on the way to

the village. the bodies of the destroyed nazis were left to rot on the side of the road. the ukrainians don't even take their dead comrades. here are bucephali, strikers, initially the enemy behaved more freely here, moved as if on their own territory, could drive into the village, make a circle of counting, now we have blocked all the roads, and he has no access, they want to live, apparently, and take care of the equipment, so they don't really climb on equipment anymore, along the road there are traces of recent battles, nine burnt bucephali, their daring march into the first days of the invasion broke off on the approaches

to the settlement. that they come here without their commanders , without a specific task, they were simply brought in a combat vehicle and dropped off, and then they sit. well, they are waiting for our assault groups. marines from the 382nd separate battalion are working with new fiber-optic drones. these kamikaze birds are unique in that they are practically invulnerable to electronic suppression. the cable reel unwinds at a distance of up to 15 km. with one movement of the joystick, the operator destroys another one enemy vehicle. the winged scouts have surrendered another point to the militants. the church in the center of the village of barki, they understand that the russians will not hit the temple, the nazis who have renounced their faith are hiding behind orthodox icons, nothing sacred. if we had not flown now, our infantry would simply walk blindly, not knowing where, who is sitting, there would be many more losses. but even the retreating ukrainian troops continue to hit the civilian population, they mine

the roads that local residents drive on. you won't immediately notice a brick, only a specialist

will determine, it is a mine. charge, it broke through the roof and went through the walls in the children's room, the attic is scattered with the fragments of kamikaze, it is no longer dangerous,

the drone worked, apparently, it exploded , detonated, as it should, there are no more explosive objects left here, the only consequence of the explosion, today the sappers of the ministry of emergency situations are working on another request, they must collect and defuse unexploded cluster munitions after the strike of american missiles, each missile carries 250 such mines. but only 70% explode immediately, the rest are waiting for their turn. the city of lgov was hit by hymers missiles for several days by the sukhoi air force, only five american missiles landed on the outskirts of the village of plodasovkhoz. these are the craters left by each hit, everything around is burned out and destroyed. literally 100-150 m away are residential buildings, people say the ground was shaking, windows were knocked out in apartments. they hid in summer kitchens. when mines were flying from the sky, the ground was shaking under their feet, the impact blew up the slate on the roof, the field where

the missiles were flying one after another was cleared away shortly before the shelling, there the wheat was growing, well, how can i tell you, i don’t know what it was, it was very loud, it was, i don’t know, that’s what we went through, it’s very scary, the ministry of emergency situations has been leaving for a week now . demining, hundreds of deadly traps and minefields, where danger lurks at every step, unexploded shells are taken to the training ground and destroyed. elena erofeeva, vitaly kaidanovich, victoria golovkina, elena bidzyak, news. the ukrainian authorities are compensating for the failure at the front with yet another round of resignations of officials. the application was filed, among others, by the deputy prime minister for

the plant for the production of cars one plant for the production of components. volkswagen should save 5 billion euros, this is possible only by stopping production cuts. the last 30 years have not even mentioned such a thing at the automaker with the trade unions, people are not fired for production reasons, but the auto giant, apparently. the european automobile industry is now in a very difficult situation, the economic situation continues to worsen, germany, as an industrial center, will continue to lose competitiveness in the future. keep up the brand german manufacturers are having a hard time for many reasons, one of which is skyrocketing electricity prices, which is why asian competitors are outperforming german classics in the price-quality category. volkswagen has entered

the electric car race. chancellor: olaf scholz is the face of failure in thuringia and saxony, the chancellor's party is happy that they managed to gain just over 5%. this is complete nonsense. the spd has never been particularly popular in the east, but now its positions have sagged even further. everyone understands who is dragging them down. the unpopular chancellor casts a shadow on the entire party. so far, no one has come out publicly against scholz, but between

the lines of the messages it is easy to read who the complaints are addressed to. the leaders who have been watching the social democrats' numbers fall and support decline for a decade and a half must realize their responsibility. we need courage to honestly describe our situation. people do not trust us. communication between those who once voted for us or could vote for us is broken because we do not speak the same language. with such a leader party will not win the elections to the bundestag

next year. according to rumors in the spd already. mom, why do we need these letters for a fairy tale. in the three
