squadron commander of the 247th fighter aviation regiment, captain karnach, on august 9, 1943, flew out to escort attack aircraft. air battle in the area of ​​the villages of bolshie and malye prostoly lintsy, rammed an enemy me-109 fighter and landed the damaged aircraft. the title of hero of the soviet union with the presentation of the order. kornach was awarded on february 4 , 1944 for 270 combat sorties, 70 air battles and 12 downed enemy aircraft. they were all belarusians, they all worked on the land, they all lived in rural areas, and since childhood i was somehow instilled in school and at home, that is love for the homeland, for belarus, for the native land, for my people, for my loved ones, read my nationality, to be afraid of her that i am belarusian. there was a trip to minsk, i thought, why would such an idea come to me, why shouldn't i be a papal priest to metropolitan philarite, and i set a goal, i found him, got to him, we talked, and he says to me: my son, the icon should be in the kiosk, i say, and what is a kot? i say, show me, i say, i don't know, well so and so, i

and the destroyers and sanders squadron expended just about everything they had. the uss emmons fired. 767 rounds, the mccook hundred and 75 is out of a thousand, and the carmack 1127, although where the 127 came from, i'm not sure sure. this now says slide shows, but no, it doesn't. so i'm moving on. so shortly before noon, the ships finally establish contact with the fire control parties on the beach who called in gunfire request gunfire support requests to the destroyer beginning about 1130 noon and 1124 spotters ashore ask the frankfurt to target a concentration of german troops behind the beach. after the first shell, the scattered, of course, shore spotting had limits to the u.s. laffey received a request for support. and when the gunnery officer asked for target coordinates, this is the answer he got in the radio transcription. we were lying on our stomachs a ditch under enemy fire can't furnish you a spot. laffey opened fire anyway, and after several the spotter radioed back whoever was shooting at us was stopped. so you must have done all right right. one

they had sent several thousand additional troops with air squadrons into the middle east in the last secretary lloyd austin, after the killing of nasrallah and an expectation that iran would respond, did send a squadron of f-22s those fighter planes are across the middle east. and if we look at the map of u.s. navy assets, it's quite a significant number of navy assets in the eastern mediterranean and in the red sea. i don't know if you have that map. >> no, we're watching live pictures of the attack right now that's coming in. the iron dome is fully at work, along with some redundancy systems on the left side. and on the right side of the screen is a live look at where suspected terror hit and a very crowded cafe restaurant. popular area inside tel aviv. it's called jaffa, so our double screen is on this attack, possibly from two different places. as they investigate the possibility of a terror attack. we saw all over media right now, jennifer, there are pictures which we cannot independently verify and many videos of at least two gunmen who were firing on people at close range. som

that it was going on in parallel, increasing the number of brigades there, increasing the number of squadrons emphasis was on the air force, here the emphasis is already on army aviation, that is, they ... assume that they will conduct combat operations on the ground, with whom can they conduct combat operations on the ground, only with russia, so i take this very seriously, i believe that this is reliable information, how seriously do you take the message that the first f-16s have entered service with ukraine from holland, you know, dmitry, i discussed this issue before the transfer, you know, i still continue to adhere. from my point of view, that if you want to deliver some weapons systems that should make, well, if not a turning point, then significantly affect the effectiveness of combat operations on your part, you should have not 24 aircraft that the dutch promised to deliver, and by the end of the year they have delivered several, before that there were 10 of them, it seems like they lost one, it is not known who shot it down, two or three were destroyed on the ground on - on... but s

that has included fighter squadrons that are now going to overlap the deployment of squadrons that wereed elsewhere. they are now by many thousands of troops in fact that a greater posture in the region than they have been two or three weeks ago. i have been two or three weeks aro. , ., ,. ago. i will put on the screen some of— ago. i will put on the screen some of the _ ago. i will put on the screen some of the latest - ago. i will put on the screen some of the latest picturesl some of the latest pictures from beirut because they have been more strikes in the last hourin been more strikes in the last hour in the lebanese capital. we also know the original strikes and focus of the ground invasion was southern lebanon. what is the administration saying about this new phase and this ground invasion by israel? how uncomfortable are they by what they are saying because they have been pushing month after month for a de—escalation and a ceasefire. after month for a de-escalation and a ceasefire.— and a ceasefire. they are backing _ and a ceasefire. they are backing their _ and a ceasefire. th

and we've also seen the us and squadrons of fights address too as well. so while there was hope that there is some $500.00 the escalation now there's also preparations have been going on for weeks now in the case of further escalation, right? dollars still i may not even be able to attend dw correspondent, emily, go dan, in jerusalem. thank you too. broadly, bowman is from the center on the military and political power of the foundation for defense of democracies in washington. he told us whether he thought the round world responded to the latest is right. he strikes wrong, has the largest ballistic missile program in the middle east. it's formidable, but it's not 10 feet tall if you well they and, but they fired a whole bunch of them. and it appears that tonight, israel has destroyed some of their production capacity and maybe some of their arsenal and can destroy much more in the future. so i'll be surprised if iran doesn't respond in some way. but i think they're going to have to be, as i said, very concerned about what that response will give israel l

i know another case where the commander of a squadron was told to take a squadron out to a carrier. he found that when he did, he would have to leave all his maintenance records in the naval air rework facility. the north. this didn't please him at. all he wanted the maintenance records of his planes, him. so he went out and bought an apple with the assistance of an engine. and in deep in the north he borrowed snow, liberated copied his records from the north into his apple got a case for it, put it in the space behind his seat, which is supposed to take his suitcase and flew off to the carrier with all of his maintenance records and a computer with which keep them up to date. every commander of every squadron should have that somebody. are you supposed to do that? he said, i didn't ask a i long ago discovered of course you don't all have the same advantage i have, but i long ago discovered that the best to get something done was to do it, and if necessary, apologize. it's much easier to apologize. you have no idea. oh gee, i did know. couldn't do that. i can turn in the most. help

can the british aircraft squadrons in cyprus provide assistance. from these equations are added when you want the israeli authorities to commit terrorism anywhere in the region. still, the islamic republic of iran has not provided the media with the details of what the armed forces and its allies in the region did in the next operation. lonely curious minds they know that iran's military forces have prepared themselves many times for operations like this in january 1402. allah is great in the meantime, experts are still busy trying to answer questions. they are such that if iran used the principle of surprise, if the shots were fired only with ballistic missiles. if the time of the attacks increased by a few hours or a few days . if after the misunderstanding of the defense capacity of iran's opponents, or as experts say, the defense systems were outnumbered, missiles would still be fired. if the islamic revolutionary guard corps from the last. it used its defense achievements like hypersonic missiles, and if the regional allies of the islamic repu
