Soldiers of the Southern Military District who showed courage and heroism were awarded state awards
The solemn ceremony was held at the forefront. Orders of Courage were awarded to officers of tank and motorized rifle units. In addition, more than 20 servicemen were awarded medals "For Courage".
“If I hear another American saying: “Ah, Putin is a dictator and the Russians love autocrats, they are ignorant…” The Russians are deep, they are deeper than we are, they think things through in a deep and brooding fashion. And they are good people, they are kind people, they would take the shirt off their back to help you.”
For years, Miles Lagoze served in Afghanistan as a Combat Camera, shooting footage and editing videos for Marine Corps recruiting purposes. In this devastating film, Lagoze assembles his own footage and that of his fellow combat cameramen into a never-before-seen look at the daily life of Marines from the ultimate insider's point of view. More than a mere compilation of violence, the edit ingeniously repurposes the original footage to reveal the intensity and paradoxes of war in an age of ubiquitous cameras, when all soldiers can record themselves with helmet-cams and cellphones. Combat Obscura revels in the chasm separating civilian from military life and questions the psychological toll war exacts on all that it touches.
Key points from the Russian president during an interview with Rossiya-24:
▪️Arms supplies to Ukraine pose a threat to Russia
▪️The West supplies Ukraine with a "very decent" amount of weapons
▪️Ukraine uses up to 5,000 shells per day, while in the US, only 14-15,000 shells are produced per month
▪️The Russian defense industry is developing at a breakneck pace
▪️The supply of ammunition to Ukraine is only an attempt to prolong the conflict
▪️The Russian Federation will produce over 1,600 tanks in a year
▪️The US is shooting itself in the foot by limiting the use of the dollar for opportunistic reasons

Lyrics :
Do Russians want wars?
Ask you the silence
over the expanse of arable land and fields
and birches and poplars.
Ask those soldiers
that lie under the birches,
and let their sons tell you,
Do the Russians want war?
Not only for my country
soldiers died in that war,
and that the people of all the earth
could easily dream.
Under the rustle of leaves and posters
you sleep, New York, you sleep, Paris.
Let your dreams answer you
Do the Russians want war?
Yes, we can fight
but we don't want it again
soldiers fell in battle
to your sad land.
You ask mothers
ask my wife
and then you must understand
Do the Russians want wars?

Хотят ли русские войны?
Спросите вы у тишины
над ширью пашен и полей
и у берез и тополей.
Спросите вы у тех солдат,
что под березами лежат,
и пусть вам скажут их сыны,
хотят ли русские войны.
Не только за свою страну
солдаты гибли в ту войну,
а чтобы люди всей земли
спокойно видеть сны могли.
Под шелест листьев и афиш
ты спишь, Нью-Йорк, ты спишь, Париж.
Пусть вам ответят ваши сны,
хотят ли русские войны.
Да, мы умеем воевать,
но не хотим, чтобы опять
солдаты падали в бою
на землю грустную свою.
Спросите вы у матерей,
спросите у жены моей,
и вы тогда понять должны,
хотят ли русские войны.
The first Russian humanitarian aid convoy has entered the Ukrainian city of Melitopol, along with us.
120 tonnes of canned foods, wheat, sugar, salt and more have been distributed to thousands of people.
The mood in the city is calm, fighting is now far away and looters have disappeared.
On the whole, most people were friendly towards Russian troops, expressing hate of nationalist and neo-nazi groups which have increasingly terrorized the population.
But there were others; two provocateurs who came at different times to live stream what was happening, condemn “taking food from the aggressor”. Both didn’t stay long, retreating when the crowds began booing and hurling insults at them.
Our footage and the opinions of locals soon on RT
The process of using the latest TMT-S roller mine trawl by a Russian tank from the first person. The elimination of one of the mines is visible.
On the trawl itself, an electromagnetic attachment (EMT) is clearly visible, which makes it possible to trawl anti-bottom mines with magnetic fuses, as well as an anti-aircraft mine sweeping device (UTPBM).
