OTN: A large family who fled Latvia wants to live in the Smolensk region - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The day before, the State Border Committee of Belarus reported that a couple decided to take ten children from Riga due to discrimination by the authorities against non-indigenous nationalities. After the family in Latvia lost a number of benefits and began to receive threats of deprivation of parental rights, they left for Belarus.

Thanks to the visa-free regime introduced by Minsk, a large family was able to cross the border without wasting time preparing documents.

According to the TV channel, now the large Morozov family will have to move to Russia. They want to start a new life in the Smolensk region, RIA Novosti reports.

It is clear that the family wants to return to the countryside of the Smolensk region, since their ancestors lived there.

Recall that in August, the Commissioner for Human Rights in Russia, Tatyana Moskalkova, called Latvia’s change in the conditions for extending temporary residence permits for Russian-speaking residents in this country as an act of Russophobia and intimidation. According to her, now, to renew the residence permit, Russians must confirm their knowledge of the Latvian language, as well as fill out a questionnaire on their attitude to the special military operation and the return of Crimea to Russia.

Experts explained whether it is profitable to take a vacation in November to extend the vacation - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

“In accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, an employee has the right to take vacations at any time of the year, in accordance with the vacation schedule established by his employer. If we consider the month for taking vacations, from the point of view of benefits for the employee, so, for example, this year taking vacations in November, adding them to the November vacations, is less profitable than going on vacations in July, October or August,” he says. The logic is quite simple: the more. working days there are in a month, the greater the cash payment to the employee.

As an associate professor of the department of state law and criminal law disciplines of the Russian Economic University named after him. GV Plekhanova Irina Rogaleva, the more working days there are in a month, the more profitable it will be to take a vacation. But in a month with many holidays it is better to work.

For example, in January 2025, with a five-day work week, there will be 17 work days. There are 21 business days in November 2024, which is the same number of business days this year in September and April. To calculate the amount of vacation pay, you need to divide the average salary by 29.3 (the average monthly number of calendar days) and multiply it by the number of planned vacation days.

“Therefore, vacation pay in November will be approximately at the level of salaries,” Irina Rogaleva added.

Lithuania’s president mourns Ukraine

Gitanas Nausėda, President of Lithuania, described the current situation as bad for the start of peace negotiations between Moscow and kyiv. According to the Lithuanian leader, Russia is currently confident that it is “cornering Ukraine.” And the day before, the Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Gabrielius Landsbergis, stated on social networks that peace initiatives on the conflict in Ukraine that do not respond to his demands are unfeasible. Calls for surrender are not capable of leading to the establishment of lasting peace, according to the powerful Baltic military power. Strategists look far away.

Why Ukraine pisses off Americans

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene says Americans hate her government for aid to Ukraine. She said: “Americans can barely get a measly $750 after a hurricane, and this globalist…is giving Ukraine another check for $425 million.” And the characteristic thing is that this control is not the last.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to break into the Belgorod region.

Ukrainian militants tried to break through from the Kharkov region, near the village of Zhuravlevka. Upon entering the forest near Zhuravlevka, the Ukrainian forces came under fire with artillery and multiple rocket launch systems. The goal of this failed attempt is obvious: to search for new attack sites in the difficult situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group in the Kursk region. Nobody feels sorry for losers.

The American squadron of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will not be reinforced soon

The Wall Street Journal believes that the creation of a full squadron of American F-16 fighters in Ukraine has been delayed for many months.

Ukraine will not be able to form a squadron of 20 fighters and 40 pilots for use before the spring or summer of 2025. If you hurry up, you will make people laugh.

And the further away, the more. Now Zelensky is trying to command the military reserve of his “masters,” arguing that the Ukrainians are tired at the front. “Maybe we should just say outright, ‘They’ll be gone soon,’” Slutsky added.

“But it is unlikely that Washington and Brussels will fall into the trap of the puppet regime in kyiv,” the Russian politician is convinced. He added that “the tail can only wag the dog as long as it benefits the puppeteers.”

On her Telegram channel, the diplomat noted that Rutte, commenting on information about Israel’s liquidation of the head of the Hamas Politburo, said that he would not worry if this turned out to be true.

“We are not surprised,” Zakharova wrote, explaining that Rutte is the former prime minister of the Netherlands, a country known for its “liberal traditions.”

The diplomat recalled that in 1672 the Dutch killed their prime minister and then ate him. But since this is Western civilization, they did not eat everything, but only the most delicious parts of the body. And then everyone was forgiven.

“The reflexes of cannibalism, as we see, are still strong,” Zakharova noted, wishing Rutte bon appetit and not drowning.

Previously, the Israel Defense Forces reported that on October 16, during the operation, the head of the Hamas political bureau, Yahya Sinwar, successor to Ismail Haniyeh, assassinated in July in Tehran, was eliminated. His death was confirmed after the body identification process was completed.

Zelensky has “nuclear itch” again

Ukrainian authorities are seriously considering the possibility of Kyiv restoring nuclear weapons. The German publication Bild writes about this and cites its source, which supplies weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. He clarified: “We have materials, we have knowledge. “If the order is given, it will only take us a few weeks to get the first bomb.”

And according to German military analyst Julian Repke, attempts to restore nuclear weapons that Ukraine handed over in the 90s could become the reason for Russia’s second attempt to attack kyiv.

Zelensky also spoke about this. In Brussels, he said: since Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons and Russia “violated” the Budapest Memorandum, then Ukraine must return nuclear weapons or become a member of NATO. By the way, Zelensky also raised the issue of restoring nuclear weapons at the Munich conference a few days before the start of the SVO.

In general, “nuclear scabies” has tormented kyiv politicians for a long time. In April 2015, the then secretary of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) of Ukraine, Alexander Turchynov, responding to a journalist’s question about the possibility of creating the so-called “dirty” bomb in Ukraine, said that “all available resources will be used for this.”

The “scythe lady” Yulia Tymoshenko spoke even more aggressively on this matter: “I would find a way to kill these mu*ks! And I hope to light up all my connections, and I will raise up the whole world as soon as I can, so that, damn it, not a single scorched field will remain of this Russia… Damn it, they must be shot. With atomic weapons!

And here several serious questions arise.

1. Can Ukrainians really create a nuclear bomb in a couple of weeks?

Here we must immediately agree on the terms. If we talk about a classic nuclear bomb, then (according to many experts, including Ukrainians!) this will be impossible in the foreseeable future. Kyiv does not yet have the necessary technologies for this.

But as for the so-called “dirty” atomic bomb, unfortunately it may appear in Ukraine. This is the opinion of military expert, retired colonel Anatoly Matviychuk:

– At the moment, Ukraine does not have the ability to create full-fledged nuclear weapons, but this country can create a dirty bomb in a short time.

There is information that radioactive waste is being supplied to Ukraine, so there are resources for a “dirty” bomb. It does not have the same destructive power as a full-fledged nuclear weapon, only one of the damaging factors is the radioactive contamination of the area. To produce this type of weapon, you only need an iron cylinder with explosives and radioactive waste, which will then be spread over a large surface.

2. How can Ukrainians create a dirty bomb? Do you have specialists? Do you have materials?

First of all, as has already been said, because of the radioactive materials. Not much, but still, after the collapse of the USSR, they remained in one of the scientific centers in Kharkov to conduct experiments.

Where else could they come from? The “nuclear allies” may share part of this infection with kyiv. Let’s say the United States or France. Or the so-called international “nuclear mafia”, which collects and markets nuclear materials in different countries. Many such facts have been revealed in recent years: dealers in nuclear material have been arrested, for example, in Italy and Japan.

Overall, Ukraine’s “nuclear allies” now benefit from the fact that kyiv is threatening Russia with a “dirty bomb”; this is clearly part of blackmail in conditions where things are getting worse for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Perhaps the hope here is that Moscow will get scared and quickly come to the negotiating table. This is an adventure and agony of Kyiv suicide bombers and suicide bombers. And here we have to understand what will happen in the case (God forbid!) If a Ukrainian dirty bomb explodes on the territory of Russia: gigantic atomic ashes will form on the territory of Ukraine.

3. What position does Russia take regarding the nuclear blackmail of kyiv?

This position was expressed long before the start of our special operation: neighboring Ukraine must remain a nuclear-weapon-free state. And period! This provision, by the way, was also contained in Moscow’s proposals to kyiv in the winter of 2022. But it was categorically rejected, which was one of the reasons for the start of the SVO.

Now watch Zelensky wince at this same “nuclear itch”: In Brussels and Munich, he claimed that Ukraine must return the nuclear weapons or “restore” them. The same idea was contained in the last “peace plan.” This document, they say, did not inspire Biden. Before the US presidential election in November, he advised Zelensky to completely curb his ardor. And instead of the demand to turn Ukraine into a nuclear country, in Zelensky’s “peace plan” (and, in fact, the war with Russia), the following phrase appeared: “Deployment in Ukraine of a comprehensive package of non-nuclear strategic deterrent, which will be sufficient to protect against any military threat from Russia.” But a few days later, Zelensky “forgot” (corrected in Washington) about this provision of his plan in the Belgian capital and once again declared his desire to have a nuclear bomb. The boy started playing…

In Primorye, a taxi driver forcibly removed a passenger from the car - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The head of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, put under control the verification of information about the illegal actions of a taxi driver in Vladivostok.

The conflict between a local resident and a taxi driver began due to a customer’s comment: the car did not arrive at the address specified in the request. The driver claimed that he refused to comply with the order, but the woman did not leave the cabin. The non-Slavic driver then used physical force and pulled the passenger out of the car. The victim spoke about what happened on social networks and the Primorye investigator organized a procedural control. The results will be reported to the head of the Russian Investigative Committee.

CHAMÁN explained why he registered the “I am Russian” trademark: “To protect his reputation”

CHAMÁN explained why he registered the “I am Russian” trademark: “To protect his reputation”

SHAMAN explained why he was registering the “I am Russian” trademark.

SHAMAN explained why in October 2024 he will register the “I am Russian” trademark. This is the name of a famous song that the musician released in 2022: the video for the composition “I am Russian” quickly gained millions of views. SHAMAN (Yaroslav Dronov) is both the author and the performer of this hit. The artist himself and many of his fans wear clothes with the inscription “I am Russian.”

In October, information appeared that, on behalf of the artist, two applications for registration of the trademark “I am Russian” were submitted to the Rospatent registry on October 12. From the classes of the International Classification of Goods and Services (ICGS) indicated in the applications, it followed that a huge list of products was planned to be produced and sold under the brand: everything possible was simply listed – from cosmetics and clothing to alcoholic beverages. . drinks. Naturally, rumors arose that the artist even decided to make his own vodka.

SHAMAN did not remain silent and explained that he does not plan to manufacture or sell vodka. SHAMAN reported on his Telegram channel: “Throughout the day they spread information that I have submitted documents to register the trademark “I am Russian” for some categories of products. This is true. I did this, first of all, to protect my reputation: businessmen and large companies constantly contact me with offers to produce this or that product under the name “I am Russian.” But there are also those who do this without any permission. Within two years, the song became not only a hit, but also a real brand. In order to allow or not allow the use of the name of my song on products, it is necessary to register a trademark.”

The artist also gave another argument for registering a trademark and responded to Ksenia Sobchak, who was “inspired” by the idea of ​​​​Yaroslav’s vodka: “On the markets now there are many low-quality consumer goods with my image. People think that since it says SHAMAN there or my photo is published, then I have something to do with these things and they will be of high quality. But in reality they are sold counterfeit products. As the author and performer of this song, I just want to be able to protect my rights. That’s all. And, of course, I’m not going to get journalist Sobchak drunk with any vodka that says “I’m Russian.”…”

Umar Kremlev: Sports federations must work more actively at the international level - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The Kremlin stated that boxers are the only Russian athletes who regularly compete in international tournaments and called on other federations to actively work in this direction.

“Russian boxers today are the only national athletes who regularly compete in international competitions and do so without any restrictions,” Kremlev said. “Russian boxers proudly raise their flag at every sporting event and listen to the anthem of our country. “It is necessary that other sports federations work more actively at the international level, so that not only boxers have the opportunity to defend the colors of our flag in international competitions”.

The Kremlin recalled that the “IBA Night of Champions” tournament took place on the first day of the forum in Ufa. In the main battles, Russian champions fought with foreign opponents.

The 2020 Olympic champion, WBA interim champion Albert Batyrgaziev, defended the IBA champion belt in the weight category up to 60 kg in a fight against Filipino Albert Pagara. And two-time world champion, 2020 Olympic finalist and 2024 European champion Muslim Gadzhimagomedov also successfully defended the WBA belt in the bridge category in a showdown with Germany’s Leon Hart.

Cherevaty's curses, Turchin's fainting, morgue inventory: behind the scenes of the filming of the second season of the program “Psychics. Revenge"

Every Saturday on TNT the mystical television program “Psychics” is broadcast. Revenge”. Marat Basharov remains the host of the second season, and Ilya Larionov and Vera Sotnikova are part of the jury. And instead of Victoria Ryders and Alexander Sheps, who were among the judges of the first season of the project, Vlad Cherevaty came and Oleg Sheps. Among the participants: Nikita Turchin, Olga Yakubovich, Angelina Izosimova and others After filming the next episode, Nikita Turchin spoke with KP.RU.

Loss of consciousness due to excessive exertion.

Nikita admitted that the competition for the project is very tough and the atmosphere is tense. One day, Turchin, 24, became so worried that he began to choke.

While filming, Turchin needed medical help. Photo: TNT

“I felt very bad. I felt breathless. At first I thought it was very hot: the heat in the place was almost forty degrees. And in the locker rooms it was very hot. And then I even vomited, my vision went dark and my heart started beating faster. Realizing that I was starting to “float” and almost falling, the doctors immediately ran to me and began to give me first aid,” the psychic told KP.RU.

Doctors measured the participant’s blood pressure, which turned out to be very high.

“It went up to 170 over 110, when normal blood pressure is 120 over 80. The doctors said that with that pressure I simply couldn’t make it to the locker room. Furthermore, in this context, the heart can suffer and even suffer a heart attack. In general, everything turned out to be very serious. I was so afraid that I already started undergoing a medical examination,” Turchin added.

Damage and scandals between participants.

According to Nikita Turchin, some project participants are ready to do anything to win, including putting a spell on their opponent.

“One day I noticed that Vlad (Cherevaty) and Oleg (Sheps) were lighting candles and next to them there was a card: a ten of swords, which means illness, pain and a spoiled black thing. In fact, Vlad the Frevaty has been repeatedly seen using curses, hexes, and love spells. In season 23, in which she won, she eliminated her rival Elena Ivashina, who almost reached the final. She suddenly broke her leg and was forced to withdraw from the “Battle of the Psychics.” She still suffers the consequences of that fracture. Vlad later admitted that he deliberately eliminated his opponent in this way, walking, casting spells, and dealing damage. Then, in “The Battle of the Strongest,” Cherevaty cursed the heroine, who then fell ill,” Turchin told us.

After those stories, Nikita’s fans began to write to the psychic that her fainting and worsening could have been caused by Cherevaty. Where does a 24-year-old have so much pressure?

According to Turchin, relations on the site are not at all friendly.

“The conflict with Sheps continues, only with the youngest, with Oleg. Last season, his older brother Alexander sued me, I didn’t make any further progress. I was one point away from qualifying for the semifinals. I fought with strong rivals – Angelina Izosimova and Nicole Kuznetsova, who finally took prizes. I could have been among the finalists too if it weren’t for a ball.

There was a conflict with Oleg Sheps Jr. “Everything is more or less the same, because of his crown and his family contract,” Nikita shared.

Equipment taken from the dead?

Fans of shows about psychics have long been discussing creepy stories related to inventory. In their rituals, magicians often use photographs of the dead, hair, remains and dubious labels… In addition, several years ago there were rumors that the famous witch Natalya Banteeva took students to practice in… a morgue.

They say there is a kind of “black market” where witches buy their entire “inventory.”

“People sell remains of corpses, foot tags. And witches use these objects in their rituals. There are even terrible rituals performed over the dead in their graves. I know that Oleg Sheps and Timofey Rudenko (participant of the second season of “Psychics. Revenge” – Ed.) practice this kind of thing. Scary people! – added Nikita Turchin.

At the same time, the man, whose face is hidden by a scarf, judging by the video, tries to protect himself from an Israeli drone with the help of a stick-like object.

According to Israeli media, Sinwar was killed by an IDF sniper.

On Thursday, the Israel Defense Forces officially confirmed the elimination of Sinwar in the Gaza Strip. According to his press service, the head of Hamas was assassinated on October 16.

Sinner and Alcaraz will fight for $6 million in Riyadh. And Djokovic will play against Nadal again

Sinner and Alcaraz will fight for $6 million in Riyadh. And Djokovic will play against Nadal again

On Thursday, October 17, the second round matches of the ATP-250 tournament in Stockholm ended. Today the seventh racket in the world, Andrei Rublev, number one seed, entered the fight. His opponent was the French tennis player Alexandre Muller, who closes the top 70 in the world ranking. Rublev bowed out in the first round and Müller beat Leo Borg (WC), the son of the legendary Bjorn Borg, 6:3, 7:6 (7:5).

Initially, Rublev was not planning to play in Stockholm. However, a disastrous performance at the Shanghai Masters, where Andrei lost to Yakub Menshik in the first match, seriously worsened the Russian’s position in the race for the ATP Championship. And so Rublev urgently flew to the capital of Sweden, where he was given the first seed. Regarding the position in the race for the Final Tournament, Andrei is in eighth place, that is, he is one step away from being left out of Turin.

Medvedev almost reached the ATP Finals. But for Rublev everything is complicated

Therefore, Müller had to be defeated. Although initially the task did not seem easy, despite the large gap in the grade. For the first time, Rublev played with the Frenchman at the Rome Masters this year, and then Alexander won a resounding victory over Andrei – 3:6, 6:3, 6:2. So this time the Russian had the opportunity to avenge that defeat.

Rublev immediately began to justify his status as the favorite. The Russian played well in his matches, despite the rather low first serve percentage (55%), and Müller simply seemed weak on the return. Andrey tried to play actively during the reception and use his forehand more often, and in the fifth game he managed to break. Rublev came close to the second break, but he didn’t take advantage of two break points, so he almost had trouble. Serving at 5:4, Andrei gave his opponent a double break point, but then he acted with precision and closed the game with the second set point: 6:4 in 39 minutes.

In the second set, Müller offered almost no resistance to Rublev. The Russian was very good both in the service and in the return. Andrey had the opportunity to end the game with a “ruffle”, but he did not take advantage of the break point in the fifth game. Only once did a slippery moment arise, in the fourth game, when Rublev fended off a break point. And in the seventh game he served for the match: 6:4, 6:1 in 1 hour and 5 minutes.

In the quarterfinals, Rublev will face three-time TBS champion Stan Wawrinka; The Swiss will turn 40 next year.

In the exhibition tournament called Six Kings Slam, which is held in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), the semifinals were played. Russian Daniil Medvedev lost to Jannik Sinner in the quarterfinals and the Italian faced Novak Djokovic. And Carlos Alcaraz, who defeated Holger Rune, played a match with his compatriot Rafael Nadal, who had already announced that he would retire after the Davis Cup playoffs.

Sinner and Djokovic appeared on the court first. It’s worth noting that organizers heard discontent on social media about the location of the main camera and moved it lower and closer; Here’s how (above is a screenshot of yesterday’s Medvedev-Sinner match, below is a screenshot of today’s Sinner-Djokovic match):

Camera Level Comparison

In the first set, Sinner dominated Djokovic in every way, just as Medvedev did in the quarterfinals. The Serb was never close to a break point, and the Italian broke him twice, in the second game and the eighth. And he won the match, which lasted only 27 minutes, 6-2.

In the second set everything changed. Novak improved, but Yannick, on the other hand, lost his serve (only 51% of first shots and five double faults per match). In the first game, Djokovic achieved a break which, however, he did not maintain; In the fourth game, Sinner restored equality. After this, the tennis players reached the tiebreaker without break points, although Yannick was two points away from victory: Novak, serving at 4:5, started with 0:30.

In the tiebreaker, Djokovic did not give a single point to Sinner: 7-6 (7-0) in 59 minutes. And immediately afterward he requested a medical leave due to shoulder discomfort.

But the Italian also had problems. At times he limped and held his stomach. At the beginning of the decisive game, the opponents made a break, and the most interesting thing was the 12-minute fifth game, in which Djokovic escaped four break points. In the next game, Novak had a real chance to take a break lead, but missed a double break point (3-3). Another exchange of breaks followed, and in the ninth game Yannick took his opponent’s serve for the third time in the set, after which he served for the match – 6:2, 6:7 (0:7), 6 : 4 in 2 hours 27 minutes.

“Not many days ago we played the final in Shanghai. They were both a little tired and made some mistakes. We all love to play here. Thanks to everyone who came. This is the reason we are here.

Maybe from the outside it seemed like I didn’t panic during the game. But inside… It’s normal. Things can change quickly in a game. I had a couple overheads, but he made some really good shots. I tried to get back into the rhythm of the game as quickly as possible. I’m happy with how I played this match.

Let’s see what happens on Saturday. I hope it turns out well. That’s why we’re all here. We are all trying to improve our level, trying to recover each point in the best possible way. We take this very seriously. We’re just trying to improve our game. Even for the next meetings. “We all know each other well,” Sinner said in an on-court interview.

Then it was the turn of Alcaraz and Nadal. Carlos, of course, was the clear favorite. And at first it was not clear what Raphael could oppose him. Nadal got his first points only in the third game. The veteran finally turned on and started to pick up his game, but his 21-year-old compatriot, already leading by a break, did the same. And in the ninth game, Alcaraz, who for obvious reasons was superior to Nadal in movement, won the match again 6:3 in 42 minutes.

In the second set, Nadal also offered no real resistance to Alcaraz, despite the good result. The stands often chanted “Rafa, Rafa!”, but the legendary tennis player never reached break points, although he pleased the crowd several times with big winners. Carlos won the match thanks to the only break in the fourth game. In the ninth game, Alcaraz served for the match: 6:3, 6:3 in 1 hour and 17 minutes.

Thus, Djokovic and Nadal will play the match for third place in the Six Kings Slam (for the umpteenth time!), and Sinner and Alcaraz will play the final. The decisive match will take place on Saturday, October 19, and the Stockholm tournament will end on October 20. Follow all the events of the “Championship”.

Private Ilnur Ashrapov and guard soldier Sergei Chertishchev

We continue to present the heroes of special operation “Z”, participants in military operations in the zone of special military operation. Soldiers, sergeants, corporals and officers who demonstrated their professional experience, character and completed combat missions. His determination, assertiveness and combat experience are highly appreciated by the Russian Ministry of Defense. Our heroes thwarted attacks and prevented nationalist counteroffensives, for which they received state awards. But they are not useful for praising. The military is confident that the enemy has no chance of success, because Donbass and Russia are fighting for a just cause.

“Never despise your enemy, no matter who they are, and know their weapons, their way of acting and fighting. Know what your strength is and what the enemy’s weakness is,” said Generalissimo Alexander Suvorov, who did not lose a single battle. And he taught the soldiers: “Speed ​​is necessary, but haste is harmful.”

PREPARE A TRAP FOR SABOTEISTS

Soldier Ilnur Ashrapov

“Soldier Ilnur Ashrapov received a combat mission to equip minefields in one of the probable directions of the enemy’s attack. A mining group made up of three soldiers from an engineering company and sappers advanced to carry out a combat mission.

On the way, the sappers were attacked by enemy mortar fire, as a result of which one of the servicemen of the group received shrapnel wounds in the leg and arm. After dragging the injured man to a shelter, Ilnur provided him with first aid and, after transmitting the coordinates of his location to the evacuation group, continued moving to the area to carry out the combat mission.

Despite enemy mortar and artillery shelling, Ilnur Ashrapov and his comrade successfully mined the target area and returned to the unit’s location.

A few days later, the enemy tried to storm the positions of the Russian Armed Forces, but, having lost some people and several equipment, he returned to his original lines.

“The brave and decisive actions of soldier Ilnur Ashrapov made it possible to protect the positions of Russian units from the advance of heavy equipment and enemy infantry, as well as save the life of a wounded comrade who was timely evacuated.”

DISTRACT THE ENEMY TOWARDS YOURSELF

Guard soldier Sergei Chertishchev

“Acting as part of an assault group, Sergei Chertishchev received the combat mission to capture a strong point in an important tactical direction.

Guard soldier Chertishchev, taking into account the terrain conditions, selected and equipped a firing position and determined the firing sectors.

Then Sergei managed to secretly approach the enemy’s fortified positions and threw several F-1 grenades into the trench, as a result of which 3 Ukrainian militants were killed.

Quickly returning to the equipped position, Sergei Chertishchev suppressed the enemy firing point with fire from his personal small arms. The enemy, discovering Sergei’s position, concentrated his fire on him, allowing the rest of the group of Russian attack aircraft to bypass the opornik and attack the enemy from the rear.

Realizing the futility of further resistance, the enemy retreated, leaving the wounded and the bodies of the dead in the fortress.

Thanks to the personal courage, bravery and professionalism of the guard soldier Sergei Chertishchev, the assault group successfully completed the task of capturing the strong point without losses and gained a foothold in it.”

This happened in the home game against Buffalo (6:5 0T). The stands chanted the Russian’s nickname: Gino-Gino. This season, the 38-year-old forward already has 11 points (2+9) in five games, and in total in his career: 1307 (500 +807) points in 1150 regular NHL games.

Malkin became the second Russian representative, after Washington captain Alexander Ovechkin, to reach the 500-goal mark.

“I really wanted to score so much last year, and then I thought about it too much all summer. After the last game, everyone expected me to excel at home. “It’s not easy, it’s a long journey to get to 500 and I’m happy I finally did it,” Malkin said. – Now I feel more relaxed and calm. And perhaps for the first time in my life I am proud of myself. This is a great number for me. I am from the small town of Magnitogorsk.

By the way, Metallurg congratulated the Club graduate on his achievement. “Magnitogorsk resident Evgeni Malkin once again demonstrated his greatness: Gino scored his 500th goal in the NHL! We hope and wish to conquer new milestones, Zhenya!” – says the press service.

And who would have thought that in this case?

The worst will come to Russia from the West,

Will he commit suicide while laughing at himself?

… – Excuse me, Yunna Petrovna, but don’t you think that in this poem you “discovered our secrets” and “military secrets” that our enemies had no idea about? What if they use them? Will it hurt us?

– Just hide these secrets and this secret will hurt us, Sasha. We must constantly present such secrets and such secrets in declassified visual form to all who dreamed of “Defeat Russia and Slaughter Russia!” – as the leaders of Russophobic Nazism shout today.

– “We are Vanka-Vstanka and Russia is Tumbler.” Doesn’t this humiliate us by comparing the country to “frivolous children’s toys”? Or is it still rising?

– Vanka-Vstanka and Tumbler are very serious “toys”, they are a visual aid to our History, our Invincibility. These “toys” are a visual spectacle to cultivate the spirit of invincibility.

– When will the West realize, Yunna Petrovna, that Russia is not a “wounded bear”? Or is it already coming, starting to come?

…And who ordered the neighbors to

Consider Russia a wounded bear,

Which is a sacred thing to achieve,

Having united internationally, was it incredible?..

– When the West, Sasha, realizes that Russia is not a “wounded bear”, the West does everything to make Russia become a “wounded bear”!!! And that is precisely why Russia has become a great country of Victories, which at no time could or will the West defeat or conquer!

This is the “Clinical History” of the West, when the patient constantly raves about the “wounded bear”, which is Vanka-Vstanka and Tumbler.

– Thank you very much, Yunna Petrovna! And now, these incredible poems, in their entirety!

And our beautiful, great.

Will he commit suicide while laughing at himself?

And who dared to say this with bitterness?

He who is declared an obscurantist, a bastard,

A brute, a degenerate, an imbecile, an idiot,

What is the equivalent of being a patriot in Russia?

And who ordered the neighbors to

Consider Russia a wounded bear,

Which is a sacred thing to achieve,

Having united internationally, was it surprising?

And who would have thought that behind the scenes?

There are so many Russophobic nobility in Russia,

Who is in your mental chamber?

Curse Russia and prosper in grace?

And who dared to say this with bitterness?

He was declared a patriot, a bastard,

What is equivalent is that this is a through thread!

But I don’t know another country like this.

Where they breathe so freely in fat profits

Those who wish their country to perish,

They give advice, knowing the essence of the topic, how to quickly bring about the end of the world,

So that our precious, great,

He committed suicide laughing at himself!..

But they won’t wait! Our star whim:

We are Vanka-Vstanka and Russia is Tumbler.

What is known about the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

What is known about the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

As clarified by the Israeli police, the initial identification was made by comparing the teeth and then the fingerprints were compared.

It is noted that Israeli soldiers followed Sinwar for about a year. In recent weeks, they have been operating in the southern Gaza Strip, where intelligence reports indicate there were several high-ranking Hamas members.

According to the Al Hadath television channel, several representatives of the leadership of the Izzaddin al-Qassam Brigade group were killed along with Sinwar. According to him, the Israeli Air Force attacked a house in Rafah where they were staying.

According to the Al Arabiya television channel, Tel Aviv notified the mediators in the indirect negotiations between Israel and Hamas about the liquidation of Sinwar.

The Hamas movement itself has not yet commented on this information.

Meanwhile, US Presidential Assistant for Homeland Security Jake Sullivan said the Hamas leader was eliminated thanks to US intelligence. According to him, the United States is proud of the support it has provided to the IDF. Sullivan noted that Sinwar’s assassination dealt “an incredibly powerful blow to Hamas.” US Vice President Kamala Harris, for her part, announced the participation of US special forces in this operation. “U.S. intelligence and special operations personnel worked closely with their Israeli partners to identify and track Sinwar and other Hamas leaders, and I commend their work,” Harris said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the killing of the Hamas leader by the Israeli army marks the “beginning of the last day” of the organization, which “will no longer rule” in the Gaza Strip. According to him, the IDF will continue its military operation in the enclave until the hostages held by Hamas are released.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant stated the same. He called Sinwar’s death a “clear signal” for Hamas members to release the hostages and surrender. “This is a clear message to all our enemies: the IDF will pursue anyone who attempts to harm Israeli citizens or security forces, and we will bring them to justice,” Galant said.

Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that “in the coming days, the United States will redouble our efforts with our partners to end the conflict, secure the release of all hostages and chart a new path forward that allows the people of Gaza to start over.” President Joe Biden made similar comments. “There is now an opportunity to plan for a future in Gaza without Hamas in power and for a political settlement that provides a better future for Israelis and Palestinians,” the White House said.

Neftekhimik defended 1:4, but lost, and a rare emergency for 2024 occurred in Khabarovsk.

Seven KHL regular season games were played on October 17. Let’s briefly summarize the results of the matches.

In Khabarovsk, the game started two hours late: the ice harvesting machine managed to make a hole, which took a long time to repair. Many spectators remained in their seats and only saw three goals from their team and the defeat. “Amur” scored again in the minority, but again the club leaders did not put their name on the scoreboard, despite 40 shots on goal during the match. Severstal scored the winning goal in the last minute: Ilya Ivantsov scored the puck immediately after winning the throw-in.

After the stormy match with Severstal, the game between Admiral and Lada proceeded much more calmly, as expected from such a signal. The 1:1 in the middle of the third half was quite logical, but then something in the game of Leonid Tambiev’s team broke with a deafening crack. Lada, who is having major problems with his attack this year, scored five goals in just over 10 minutes, all of them scored by different players and almost all of them for nickels. He also no longer called timeouts, like in the previous game.

Boucher (Sharipzyanov, Reinhardt) – 50:14 (5×5)5:6
Ruzicka (Mironov, Vishnevsky) – 54:00 (5×5)

It is difficult to somehow logically understand what happened in Omsk. Alexey Zhamnov briefly described it as a “roller coaster.” Spartak led 2-0 and calmly controlled the game, scored the third, but the goal was disallowed by a successful request from the coach, after which the guests simply got up and allowed Avangard to score four goals in a row. It is not known what words the Spartak coaches found in the locker room, but in the third period the red and white team scored four goals and once again turned the game in their favor. Adam Ruzicka scored a hat-trick with the winning goal.

Another magnificent match was played in Nizhny Novgorod. When Vasily Atanasov scored 4:1 midway through the third period, everything seemed inevitable. However, Neftekhimik is a very tenacious team and Oleg Leontyev’s team sent the match to extra time. It is worth highlighting Luca Profaka: the defender from the American lower leagues is progressing during this season, he joined the majority team and today scored 1+2. However, in overtime, Team Torpedo scored on the power play and earned an extra point.

Less than two thousand spectators came to watch the match between Vityaz and Avtomobilist, and the match in Balashikha turned out to be really boring. “Avtomobilist” played as number two for most of the match and only after conceding a goal did they liven up and start creating some chances. The winning goal was scored by foreign players Nick Merkley and Brendan Laipsik, who were criticized at the beginning, and Anatoly Golyshev scored his 150th goal in the KHL with a shot into an empty goal.

For many years, SKA and CSKA matches fooled all fans with loud posters and turned out to be as boring as possible. However, today was not the case. CSKA has been chattering in recent matches and SKA quickly took a 2-0 lead; However, the Muscovites recovered in part thanks to young Alexei Churkin’s first KHL goal. Two goals behind CSKA, SKA responded with two goals, but the military team, after surviving the substitution of the goalkeeper, recovered with a score of 2:4. However, in extra time, SKA turned out to be stronger: Alexander Nikishin scored the winning goal.

The match in Minsk could present a nice story: Vadim Shipachev could beat Sergei Mozyakin’s record in a match against his team. However, the Minsk team did not score a goal today and Magnitogorsk was limited to an empty-net goal only because of Scott Wilson’s puck in the minority.

Yulia Lipnitskaya secretly became a mother for the second time. The figure skater hid her pregnancy. However, not just her. The piquancy of the situation lies in the fact that the former student Eteri Tutberidze did not give birth to a son from Vladislav Tarasenko, whom she married several years ago.

Yulia Lipnitskaya secretly gave birth to her second child. The son and mother feel very well. The figure skater’s new husband, choreographer and coach Dmitry Mikhailov, became the father of the newborn baby.

Yulia left her first husband, Vladislav Tarasenko, KP Sport reports. Tarasenko and Lipnitskaya trained together in Eteri Tutberidze’s group. On June 27, 2020, the couple had a daughter, Catalina. In the fall of 2022, Tarasenko was drafted into the army to participate in the Northern Military District.

The skater is still on the front line today. In the summer of 2023, Tarasenko arrived on vacation in Moscow. When a journalist asked Vladislav to share his experience of living in a conflict zone, he blocked him.

By the way, Lipnitskaya and Mikhailov have known each other for a long time. They work together as trainers for Evgeni Plushenko. Dmitry is the first assistant of the famous Olympic champion.

In 2021, Mikhailov announced their engagement. He would later marry his girlfriend Ekaterina Puskas. But he probably became close to Lipnitsa, with whom he worked at the same skating rink. There was an office romance that ended in a wedding.

In June 2024, a heavily pregnant Yulia married Dmitry. The celebration took place behind closed doors in Rublyovka.

The Ministry of Finance will tighten the conditions for the departure of foreign companies from Russia – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The Ministry of Finance will tighten the conditions for the departure of foreign companies from Russia - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

“From 15% to 25% immediately, plus 5% one year and 5% the next, in total 35%. The discount for foreigners increases from 50% to 60%,” said the head of the Ministry of Finance in the State. Duma, where amendments to the Budget Code were considered.

According to President Vladimir Putin, Russia behaves much more civilized towards foreign companies leaving the country, compared to the hostile attitude of states towards Russian businessmen. Previously, the Head of State recalled that in the 90s the Russian market was in the hands of foreign corporations, with which national producers could not compete. Putin commented on the departure of foreign companies after 2022 with the proverb “if there was no happiness, but misfortune would help.” Foreign companies are forced to abandon entire factories and other infrastructure with trained employees “for almost nothing, or just like that,” the president explained.

“We are not kicking them out nor are we going to kick them out, they leave on their own. Well, we are not going to reward them with any excess capital for their exit from our economy, from private companies and from the State. Owned companies have become so strong that they can easily occupy these niches. “It seems that no one expected such agility from us. Therefore, the state of the labor market is better than ever and therefore the growth of the economy, the growth of the industry. production,” he emphasized.

The requirement for a voluntary contribution to the budget when a foreign company leaves Russia was established at the end of 2022, and then its amount was 10% of the transaction amount. The new rules will further increase entry costs for a foreign seller, Petr Shcherbachenko, associate professor at the Financial University of the Government of the Russian Federation, told Rossiyskaya Gazeta.

“Those foreign companies that are under strong pressure abroad to leave Russia at any price will be forced to be content with the money they receive minus the mandatory discount and contribution to the budget. For the rest, the tightening of the rules will make them think. “In any case, as the president said, Russia must and will protect its interests. If market niches remain vacant for our entrepreneurs, they must be filled,” he described the situation.

In the next three years, 12 more stations will appear in the capital’s metro – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

Готовность нового участка Троицкой линии составляет более 40 процентов. На ряде станций идет отделка.

Let me remind you that the new Troitskaya line of the Moscow Metro opened this year on City Day with four stations: Novatorskaya, Peoples’ Friendship University, Generala Tyulenev and Tyutchevskaya. As Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced yesterday, four more will be added to them in three years: ZIL, Krymskaya, Akademicheskaya and Vavilovskaya.

The entire new section, 7.1 kilometers long, is already 41 percent complete. In particular, at the Vavilovskaya station final work began on the interior and on the traction reducing substation. At Akademicheskaya, the construction of the main monolithic structures is half finished. Reinforcement of the concrete base of the escalators continues.

At the Krymskaya station, excavation work was completed and the installation of the main structures began. Its state of readiness, along with adjacent tunnels, is estimated at 32 percent.

The entire first phase, 26.6 kilometers long, includes the construction of 11 stations. The second stage, from Kommunarka to Troitsk, which is about 20 kilometers from the Moscow Ring Road, will open later, around 2028, but technical documentation is now being developed. The new radius, 43.4 kilometers long, will be one of the longest in Moscow. With its arrival, the residents of New Moscow will receive a third metro line. Travel time to the city center will be reduced by 30 to 40 minutes. In total, 17 stations will be opened on this line, from two of which – ZIL and Krymskaya – it will be possible to transfer to the MCC, and from four more – Akademicheskaya and Novatorskaya. “Novomoskovskaya” and “ZIL” – to other metro lines. Passenger traffic on the new line is expected to be about 300 thousand passengers per day. Thanks to the launch of this line, the southern sections of the Sokolnicheskaya and Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya lines will be freer.

Another new radius on the capital’s metro map – the Rublevo-Arkhangelskaya line – is marked in graphite. In the next three years, according to the mayor, eight stations will be opened on it, on the section from Ilyinskaya to Shelepikha. This line will connect the Moscow International Business Center and the Rublevo-Arkhangelskoye International Financial Center, and will subsequently connect with the Biryulevskaya Line. The first two stations of the new radio operated as part of the BCL from 2018 until this summer. They are now not operational, as work is underway to connect with the first section of a new eight-station radio, scheduled to come into service in 2027.

Andrei Malakhov has been happily married to Natalya Shkuleva for more than ten years. Together, the couple is raising their only child, Sasha, who was born in 2017. The parents dote on the heir and do not show him to the public. This year, the star offspring went to the first grade at a private school. And recently the presenter shared a rare revelation about Sasha’s character.

The son of Andrei Malakhov and his wife Natalya Shkuleva rarely talk about their son in interviews. It is known that this year Alexander went to the first grade of a private school. The parents sent the boy to study in one of the most prestigious educational institutions in Moscow. For one year of study, the parents of a first-grader paid more than a million rubles.

The other day, a proud father spoke about Sasha’s character traits. A child born under the sign of Scorpio is an outstanding representative of this zodiac sign. The boy is persistent and stubborn, he always gets his way.

Vasilisa Volodina suggested that the presenter is probably very close to his son. “Andrey, you surprisingly gave birth to a son. After all, you have the Moon in Scorpio! You must have good contact with the child. You feel it like no one else,” said a guest of Malakhov’s program in Russia. 1 channel.

Malakhov previously said his son began asking him awkward questions. “My son came and asked, “Dad, what is cystitis?” I’m like, ‘Where did you get this?’” Andrey shared.

By the way, Sasha grows curious and active. Your day is scheduled literally minute by minute. In addition to his studies, he goes to clubs and sections. The star heir loves swimming; Since he was little he has been involved in dancing, modeling, drawing, English and music.

“On Saturday we try to go to bed early, because on Sunday we attend the morning service in the church, and it is held early,” Malakhov shared.

Putin discussed the development of physical education and sports with members of the Presidential Council – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

Putin discussed the development of physical education and sports with members of the Presidential Council - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

Sport is not just about people’s health. The life expectancy of citizens, the demographic future and, therefore, the strength and sovereignty of the country depend on it, the President immediately stressed, when several new sports facilities in different parts of Russia were presented to him by videoconference.

“It is important that as many Russian citizens as possible, of all ages (adults, children, youth) choose these values ​​for themselves, so that people throughout our country have the opportunity to regularly engage in sports and physical education” Putin said. saying.

In recent years, Russians have become increasingly involved in sports. 56.8% practice it systematically instead of 40%. “But this is still not enough,” the president admitted. It’s not always simple laziness that gets in people’s way. The state continues working to expand sports infrastructure to make it more accessible to the population. “We plan to build at least 350 sports facilities annually with federal support alone,” said the president. “First of all, in small cities and towns, these are universal complexes and prefabricated zones.” Over the next six years, at least 65 billion rubles will be allocated from the budget for these purposes.

The president said that at some point he would not have reached the standards of the Master of Sports of the USSR in judo and sambo if his family had to pay for everything, as they do now.

For some, sport becomes a true salvation, a new meaning to life. The Heroes of Our Time tournament began in Ufa on Thursday. Its participants are veterans of a special military operation who received combat wounds. Teams from eight regions (more than 60 participants) compete in six sports: table tennis, sitting volleyball, arm wrestling, archery, electronic weapons shooting and weightlifting.

Vladimir Putin met with the athletes and expressed confidence that nothing can stop the life and development of people with such character, who are not afraid to face bullets. “The fact that you have gone through the crucible of such serious and difficult trials, and the fact that you have not found yourself on the sidelines, but right here, in these beautiful halls, it seems to me that for some a new life will come. , despite all the worst, the seriousness that happened to them, including serious injuries,” the president supported the veterans. On behalf of the country, he assured his interlocutors that Russia would do everything possible to support them. “Thank you very much for not forgetting us,” one of the participants addressed the president. “All of Russia will always remember you,” Putin responded.

In his speech at the forum “Russia, a sporting power”, Vladimir Putin evaluated the current situation in world sport. And the theme of the plenary session, “Sport: a comprehensive vision of the future”, was ideal for this. The President agrees that the prospects for world sport really need serious and substantive debate. “In a joint search for an answer to the question of how to overcome the difficult challenges of our time, avoid a split in the international sports family, cleanse sport of vulgar politicization, double standards, perverted rules and humiliating discrimination, including in matters of the basis of the citizenship and nationality of athletes,” He emphasized.

Today it is already obvious, he said, that they are trying to make world sport and the Olympic movement not an arena for fair competitions, but a platform for geopolitical games, to instill a destructive neoliberal agenda, propaganda against natural norms and denial of traditional traditions. values ​​by which the vast majority of countries and peoples on the planet have lived for thousands of years. But Russia, like the world majority, chooses a different path: the path of equality, openness and mutual respect in all types of cooperation.

– We promote new formats of cooperation, relying on the true ideals and principles of sport, and this is solidarity, justice, triumph of the human spirit, strength and intelligence, this is nobility and respect for the dignity of the opponent. We treat all opponents with respect,” Vladimir Putin said.

In recent years, Russia has held more than one international competition. All these initiatives, explained the Head of State, have become additional opportunities for athletes to demonstrate their skills in areas where sport is outside of politics. “The way we value and love him: free and honest, imbued with the spirit of friendship and unity,” Putin noted.

At a meeting of the Council for the Development of Physical Education and Sports, the role of non-governmental organizations in this work was discussed. According to the president, it is necessary to update the activities of sports federations, which are not limited to issues of professional sports and elite sports. “Therefore, the volume of support to federations from all sources should be linked, among other things, to their contribution to the development of mass, amateur, corporate, children’s and youth sports,” Putin believes.

The president asked to report on the measures that have been taken to address the problems of children and youth sports, mainly to stop its commercialization: “Even in formally free sections and training centers, parents are forced to spend substantial sums on the equipment for their children and rent playgrounds, pay sports fees and fees for participation in competitions, including those in which children receive sports categories and titles.” Yes, he agreed, in our time families, of course, in certain cases must and can participate in this co-financing. “But you have to know moderation in everything. Sometimes no one in our country perceives the limits,” Putin was outraged, citing some examples of how young athletes receive money for going to the fields.

“If at some point, when I was actively involved in sports, I had to pay for all this, I would never have met the standard of a Master of Sports of the Soviet Union in sambo and I would never have met the standard. Master of sports of the USSR in judo,” said the Head of State, adding that his family did not have a single cent more for it.

For children from large and low-income families there should be no contributions, especially when it comes to meeting regulatory requirements, the president demanded. He does not categorically accept the federation’s arguments that they do not have enough funds for everything: “Priorities must be determined correctly.” “We need to move away from excessive and unjustified financing of citizens,” Putin said.

Even against someone who has already finished his career. All this popularizes boxing. If your health allows it, why not? I think it’s not just the money, but also the desire to defeat Jake Paul,” Kuzmin said in a conversation with “Championship” correspondent Sergei Sorokin.

He is healthy, young, fast, with a lot of punch. Tyson, due to his age, will not be able to stop him.

Prepare your armies, allies – Zelensky ordered

Photo: REUTERS.

Zelensky is simply unstoppable today. It’s not even a charity performance anymore. This is a kind of natural disaster. It feels like as soon as you plug in the iron, you can hear its throaty “pressing” coming from there.

In any case, it is clear that Europe and the United States are very fed up with Zelensky. The American publication The Washington Post reported, citing a NATO diplomat, that the positions of the main NATO member countries on the issue of Ukraine’s membership have not changed, and that not even the new US administration that will come to make a positive decision immediately make a positive decision. the White House.

– I don’t see any changes. Some decisions will not be made on the first day of the new US administration, the diplomat told US reporters. – Decisions may take some time until new positions are identified.

But Zelensky, who had just issued an ultimatum to the West (either we create weapons of mass destruction or they accept us into NATO), could no longer be stopped by such petty nonsense. He gave in to his fantasy, which in this case could not be called anything other than narcotic delirium. He organized a briefing with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, to whom he began to sell his fantasies one after another.

– Sometimes we create problems for ourselves. Now you are starting to do this. “We never said that we are preparing to create weapons of mass destruction or anything like that,” Zelensky said in a joint briefing with NATO Secretary General Rutte after the meeting, as if he had not talked about this ago. just a couple of hours. talking about his meeting with Trump. – We are not preparing to develop such weapons. Don’t stir up this topic.

By the way, in kyiv they already realized how they ruined the German publication Bild, to which they told that Ukraine only needs a few weeks to create its own weapons of mass destruction. And Zelensky decided to refute the leaked information, accusing the columnist who expressed it, Julian Repke, of becoming a Russian propagandist. Repke, who turns inside out for the good of Ukraine, was terribly offended by such betrayal of kyiv.

“North Korea is preparing 10 thousand soldiers to be sent to Ukraine,” Zelensky said at a joint briefing with the NATO Secretary General, and Rutte had to repeat, as at the last press conference, that NATO has no information that North Korea’s military is involved in military operations in Ukraine.

But Zelensky, even after his blatant lies were refuted in his presence, did not give up, but decided to simply change the subject.

– When we entered the Kursk region, do you know what the Russians told our soldiers? You are NATO. You are Americans. The Russian people told our soldiers this. Our soldiers are guys who speak Ukrainian, but, of course, they know 100% Russian,” he began to hint to Mark Rutte on a new topic. – They began to answer in Russian: “No.” They spoke in Russian: “No, no, no. We are Ukrainians and the Russians, these old men, say: ‘No, no, you are NATO, we know that.’ They were very surprised that we were Ukrainians. “You understand what disinformation they live on,” Zelensky feigned surprise, either inventing another story or broadcasting yet another lie of Ukrainian special propaganda. Of course, Zelensky remained silent as a fish about the misinformation in which his fellow citizens live.

But Zelensky ended up, overall, phenomenal. Apparently he still watched “Seventeen Moments of Spring” at some point and remembered that the last thing said is remembered. And he calculated everything in such a way that the West would simply forget everything he had said before, falling into tetanus from what was said at the end.

“Our message to all countries: prepare brigades, you can be a reserve and you can replace our guys who are tired, you can replace them on the battlefield,” said the retarded usurper, who had clearly grown before his very eyes to reaching proportions. gigantic in a joint briefing with NATO Secretary General Rutte. Wow, how he crushes it and hasn’t let go for days.

Prepare your armies, allies – Zelensky ordered. But some allies may not be able to resist and decide that it is much easier to strangle a raging madman. On a pillow or on the toilet, as is done in the West. To begin with, it will help you.

Biden said US intelligence helped Israel locate Hamas leader - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

As indicated in the document, the United States welcomes the elimination of Sinvar.

According to Biden, in October last year he ordered US intelligence to “work closely” with Israeli security officials to locate Sinwar and other Hamas leaders.

Washington viewed the activities of the slain Hamas leader as a “serious obstacle” to peace in the Middle East, according to the statement.

Biden also promised to soon call Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other representatives of the Israeli leadership to “congratulate” him on Sinwar’s killing.

Today, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officially confirmed the elimination of Sinwar in the Gaza Strip. According to his press service, the head of Hamas was assassinated on October 16.

Will Spartak stop the leader and will Dzyuba bother Zenit? Intrigues of matchday 12 of the RPL

Will Spartak stop the leader and will Dzyuba bother Zenit? Intrigues of matchday 12 of the RPL

Nikita Paglazov October 17, 2024, 21:30 Moscow time Audio version: Your browser does not support the audio element.

The new coaches begin to work in two teams.

RPL returns after the international break. Several interesting matches await us on matchday 12. In the central match, Spartak will host Krasnodar in Moscow. What other intrigues are there? Let’s figure it out.

On Friday the tour will begin with a meeting in Samara. Akron is doing well for a newcomer: 12 points and eighth place after 11 rounds. However, a real test awaits the Togliatti team: Zenit. The St. Petersburg team occupies third place in the table and plans to return to the top. Sergei Semak’s team has no intention of losing points, but Akron has a trump card in the person of Artem Dzyuba. The 36-year-old forward loves to tease his exes. Do we expect a goal from Dzyuba and problems for Zenit?

Next, the match between Akhmat and Fakel begins in Grozny. Both teams have a difficult situation in the table: the first are in last place, 16th. And the Voronezh team is ahead of Akhmat by only one point. It is surprising that the Grozny team has never achieved a victory in 11 rounds. When to win, if not now? But “Fakel” also fights for every point, so no one will give victory to “Akhmat”. The poster is not the brightest, but the match will be 100% intriguing.

On Saturday, October 19, Viktor Goncharenko will play his first official match as coach of Paris NN. Nizhny Novgorod will host Valery Karpin’s Rostov at home. The teams in the standings are separated by just one point. But Paris NN changed their coach and the Rostovites believe in Karpin. In the last six rounds, the southerners only achieved one victory and suffered four defeats. Has Karpin found a way to fix the game’s problems? We’ll find out soon. It is also interesting to look at the updated Pari NN. Goncharenko needs to build a reserve from the relegation zone/seams before the winter break.

Lokomotiv fights for RPL gold. The team won nine wins in 11 rounds and scored 27 points (like Krasnodar). Mikhail Galaktionov surprises! And Loko has great chances of adding another victory. On matchday 12 the team visits Khimki. The club from the Moscow region has not won for eight rounds and is in the playoff zone. Lokomotiv should not beat the most powerful rival. Although, perhaps on this day Khimki will break its winless streak.

The main match of matchday 12 will be played at the Lukoil Arena. Spartak will try to stop the Krasnodar leader. Murad Musayev’s team won eight games in a row and took the lead in the RPL. Will the Muscovites be able to take points from the Krasnodar team? In the last head-to-head confrontation in Moscow, Spartak won a minimal victory. The last time the teams tied was in March 2019. So one of the clubs will probably get what they want.

Saturday’s program ends with a meeting in Makhachkala. Dynamo is the lowest team in the RPL: ​​more than two goals have never been scored in their meetings. CSKA comes to visit Dagestan. Marko Nikolic’s team has entered the top five and is only thinking about climbing further. But Dinamo’s tough defense may not allow the guests to implement their winning plan. The main intrigue: will CSKA be able to score at least two goals against the Makhachkala team? Dinamo have never conceded more than one goal at home.

Another coaching debut will take place in Orenburg: Vladimir Slishkovic came to the club instead of David Deogracia. Those from Orenburg have not won since the first round. Will the new coach be able to break the losing streak in the match against Krylia Sovetov? The Samara team “defended” coach Igor Osinkin. With a positive charge, a team can beat anyone. It will be even more interesting how the match between two emotionally charged clubs ends.

The tour ends with a meeting in Kazan. Rubin scored five points in the final three rounds and finished in seventh place. And Dynamo fell behind the top three and fell to fifth place. Coach Marcel Lička’s position at the club is no longer unconditional. The blue and white desperately need points so as not to be completely out of the championship race. And if Rubin wins, they will get closer to Dinamo. In the last round, the Muscovites disappointingly lost to CSKA (1-2) in the derby. Can you correct yourself in front of the fans?

Dmitry Shepelev, 41, lost his job as a TV presenter in October 2024. Since last fall, he has hosted a weekly family TV show, “In the Circle of Friends,” on the Rossiya TV channel. Stars and viewers came to Shepelev’s studio with their pets and told stories from the lives of four-legged and feathered family members. Additionally, the program contains many tips for pet owners. In October 2024, the program “In the circle of friends” instead of Dmitry Shepelev will be hosted by actor Sergei Druzyak and his border collie assistant Prime. By the way, six months ago Druzyak was invited on air with Shepelev in the program “In the circle of friends.”

Additionally, Shepelev hosted two podcasts on the radio and Internet platform: one about artificial intelligence and the second, “Dad at Home,” about dads and children. Both have not been updated since early summer. In the spring of 2024, Dmitry launched a project on Rutube called “Date with a Trailer” – he produced and presented. But this project was also suspended after several releases. Now Shepelev is immersed in the process of inventing and producing new stories. Last year, Dmitry Shepelev took a business production course at the School of Event Production. Shepelev has a diploma from the Faculty of Journalism of the Belarusian State University. When he met and lived with Zhanna Friske, he later hosted the TV show “Property of the Republic” (with Yuri Nikolaev) and, after her death, television projects: “Two Voices”, “Actually”, “You Are Like Me “. ”, “Great Country Show”.

Recall that when Dmitry Shepelev left the scandalous talk show “Actually” in February 2020, he dreamed of producing and hosting programs for children and parents. Dmitry Shepelev is raising 11-year-old Platon (son of Dmitry and singer Zhanna Friske), 3-year-old Tikhon (son of Dmitry and his common-law wife, designer Ekaterina Tulupova), and 10-year-old Lada (daughter from Ekaterina Tulupova from her ex-husband).

The Supreme Court clarified the criteria for classifying company equipment as real estate – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The Supreme Court clarified the criteria for classifying company equipment as real estate - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

The interdistrict tax inspection of the Khabarovsk Territory classified as real estate the carpentry equipment and kiosk-type transformer substations belonging to the bankrupt Arkaim company from Khabarovsk. As a result, the inspection imposed on the company additional taxes for 2020 in the amount of 7.5 million rubles and penalties in the amount of 1.6 million rubles. and a fine for non-payment of property tax – 375.3 thousand rubles.

Arkaim’s bankruptcy trustee managed to challenge the amounts and reduce the arrears to 4.2 million rubles and the penalties to 920 thousand rubles. and a fine of up to 210.7 thousand rubles. The inspection assessed additional disputed amounts of taxes, penalties and fines and determined that the equipment was illegally excluded from the corporate property tax base. This decision was made because the objects declared as movable property were part of a single real estate complex, which made them real estate.

The trial court disagreed with the tax inspection and indicated that the woodworking equipment and transformer substations were purchased at different times and were located on different plots of land. Furthermore, the court considered that the disputed objects could be dismantled without significant damage. Therefore, the taxpayer legitimately classified them as personal property.

However, the court of appeal overturned this decision due to the lack of documents confirming that the specified objects are movable property. The court of cassation supported the conclusions of the court of appeal. By appealing to the Supreme Court, Arkaim’s bankruptcy trustee managed to appeal the decisions of the courts of appeal and cassation and found them illegal. Thus, according to the conclusions of the Economic Disputes Chamber of the Supreme Court (SC), published on October 10 in the operative part of the court’s ruling, the equipment is not real estate and should not be subject to taxes.

According to the vice-president of the “NP OPORA” Association, Boris Fedosimov, the position expressed by the Supreme Court will put an end to a significant number of disputes between taxpayers and tax authorities over the classification of certain objects as real estate. completely stop these types of disputes. The director of the Business Russia think tank on criminal legal policy and execution of judicial acts agrees with him. Ekaterina Avdeeva “There is no jurisprudence in Russia, and in each specific case a specific court makes a decision based on specific circumstances,” the expert recalled.

The position of the high court in this case is based, among other things, on accounting standards, according to which work machines and equipment are identified as a separate type of fixed asset subject to accounting, different from real estate. As Fedosimov notes, a significant part of disputes between tax authorities and taxpayers over the classification of real estate do not concern equipment. For example, there are also disputes over power lines and stationary conveyors.

Until now, in police practice there are conflicts that show that assets that are not classified as real estate by civil law are classified by tax authorities as real estate. Situations may also arise where two identical units of property are classified as real property and the other as personal property. Fedosimov sees the solution to this problem by amending the legislation.

“It is necessary to legislate more understandable criteria to classify this or that property as real estate specifically for tax purposes,” noted the expert, referring to the Supreme Court’s indication in the case of the Arkaim company that the taxpayer has the right to know exactly what consequences The investment process will have tax obligations, and (the taxpayer) will not have to face tax uncertainty.

According to Avdeeva, the Supreme Court’s decision will be taken into account by lower courts and will also serve as an additional argument to the defense arguments. However, one should not expect that now the courts, in disputes over the classification of a property as real estate, will focus on its registration as a single real estate complex. The Federal Tax Service in its work has long been based on the principle of the actual purpose of a transaction or property. “Therefore, the tax authorities will continue to classify unified real estate complexes as real estate, regardless of their registration in the Unified State Real Estate Register and it can be assumed that in disputes with entrepreneurs, the courts will often continue to take sides . of the tax authorities,” explained the expert.

Ovechkin played a new position for the first time in 10 years. So that?

Alexander Ovechkin played as a right winger for the first time in 10 years. The Washington captain spent part of the game against Vegas like this and was immediately able to score a double assist!

“My goodness, a force to be reckoned with.” The United States is delighted with Ovechkin’s achievement

Will Ovi really be able to prove himself in his new position? Why did the Capitals coaching staff cut the left forward in the first place? How did Ovechkin perform the last time he played right?

Let’s figure it out.

“I don’t know. We just mixed all the links”

Washington head coach Spencer Carbery decided to move the forward to the right in the second game of the season. In the opening game played with New Jersey, Ovechkin scored his first point in the 2024/2025 regular season, giving an assist. In addition, the capital captain became the best hockey player in the game in terms of number of power movements. He has seven hits to his name, more than twice as fast as his closest pursuers.

A problem. For the 23rd time in his career, Alex failed to take a single shot on goal. And this became a real problem.

Even during training camp in mid-September, Carbery said he would consider moving Ovechkin to right wing: “We talked about it. Let’s see how it works on the training field. Let’s look at some different options.”

And now, after the game with the Devils, the coach made his decision. For the game against Vegas, Ovi played on the right side, along with left winger Alexei Protas and center back Dylan Strome.

“I don’t know,” Ovechkin said when asked about moving to right wing. – We simply mix all the links.

Well, I have experience playing at right back, but that was many years ago. But it doesn’t matter if you start on the left or the right, because as the game progresses you go from the offensive zone to the defensive zone and stay on the right side. You basically play there most of the time.

I honestly don’t know if I will play on the right, left or center. Maybe tomorrow I will play as a goalkeeper. We never know. But I think we still have options to find combinations. “It’s the beginning of the year, there are new faces on the team, so we need to find the right combinations, the right chemistry, and that’s what we’re trying to do now,” Ovechkin said before the game against Las Vegas.

It seems that Alexander has accepted the situation in which he will have to play on the right.

“I think it’s a slight change. I see him a lot on both sides of the ice, so left or right, I don’t really care,” Carbery said.

The coach also noted that the change in the combinations of the first and third trio was more due to the desire of the left-handed Protas to play on the left flank, after having played games in the third trio on the right.

“We have an influx of left-footed wingers, so we’re working to make sure none of those guys play on the wrong flank,” the coach admitted.

Protas himself, by the way, adopted a responsible attitude towards this coach’s decision. Alexei, who played all three offensive positions during his four seasons in Washington, said he will try to complement Ovechkin and Strome on each end of the ice.

“I think I have to help Ovechkin and Strome as best I can. Just play hard, win battles and try to help them everywhere. “I just try to do it the best I can, the best way I can,” he said.

Ovechkin’s last chance. Why Washington will win the Stanley Cup this season

Therefore, the decision to move Ovi to the right flank, at least temporarily, is more than logical and understandable. But how did Alexander perform 10 years ago, the last time he played this position?

Two Maurice Richards, the last Hart and the worst performance of his career

Ovechkin is an established left winger. He spent almost all of his 20 NHL seasons on this wing. And he scored some 770 goals as a left back.

But Ovi played at right back for two seasons. This happened in the 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 campaigns. Then Washington legend Adam Oates, who had just taken over the club, was looking for options to restart the captain’s career.

Having started actively in the NHL, Ovechkin became depressed in his sixth year in the league. He scored more than 50 goals in a season four times and never lowered the bar below 46 goals in five regular seasons. But in the 2010/2011 campaign, Ovi found itself in a serious crisis. Bruce Boudreau’s unfortunate decisions, as well as the hockey player’s personal and playing problems, led Alex to record one of the worst results of his career. During that season, the forward scored only 32 goals in 79 games.

The following year, Bruce Boudreau was replaced by Dale Hunter, who, according to Ovechkin himself, was the worst coach of his career. And the situation has not changed much: only 38 goals in 78 games. Despite the slight increase in performance, the overall score indicators, on the contrary, seriously fell. Under Boudreau the year before, Ovi was able to score 85 points; With Hunter everything got even worse: the forward scored a measly 65 points. This is the worst result in the forward’s career, if the shortened seasons are not taken into account (on par with the last regular season, when the player was already 38 years old).

Hunter, naturally, did not stay in Washington and Oates was taken in his place. It was in this situation that the new helmsman of the capital decided to try something new.

The beginning was difficult. Ovechkin had difficulty getting used to playing on the right flank and even occasionally bumped into his teammates, both in training and in matches.

Alexander finished his first season on the right wing with 32 goals. “Failure!” – you say. You are welcome! That regular season, if you remember, was shortened due to the 2012 lockout. Ovechkin did it in just 48 games; only four times in 19 seasons did he achieve a better scoring average. The Washington captain then won his fourth Maurice Richard Trophy, the award being the first for a hockey player in three years.

In addition, the forward was also awarded the Hart Trophy, which became the third in his career. And finally.

“Would you have become the most valuable player of the season if you hadn’t switched to playing on the right wing? Well, it’s hard to say. Changing positions was not easy for me. We tried to find the best option for me.

for this [за награду] I have to thank Oates. It was he who insisted that I play on the right. So my success is not only my merit, but also that of the coaching staff, my partners and everyone in general. The transition to the right flank was difficult, but it worked, so I’m very happy.

Now I feel like I am the same as before again. Special credit for this goes to Oates. Last night [когда выиграл «Харт»] He was the first person I called, after my family of course.

As soon as I arrived at the club I told him that I would support him, that I would trust him. He replied that I just need to listen to it and everything will be fine. I did just that. And now I’m almost completely fine,” Ovechkin said in the summer of 2013, noting the importance of changing positions.

“Being 42 goals shy of the record is awfully close.” What the United States expects from Ovechkin in the new season

However, the forward failed in the playoffs. In seven games of the first round series with the Rangers, Ovechkin scored only 2 (1+1) points and was silent when his help was needed most. In the seventh match, the capitalians really fell from grace: 0-5 and an embarrassing elimination in the first round.

In the 2013/2014 season, the experiment continued and Ovechkin even managed to reach the 50-goal mark again. Alexander scored 51 goals in 78 games, won the fifth from Maurice Richard and has finally returned to his previous level. But the experiment itself can be considered a failure.

Because?

First of all, because of Ovechkin’s defensive play. The forward finished that season with a utility score of -35, the third worst in that championship and the absolute worst in a hockey player’s career. Ovi was repeatedly criticized, as if he had forgotten how to play in defense and in equal compositions, although in the majority he became a truly formidable force.

Well, at the same time, Washington missed the playoffs for the first time in six years.

Here the experiments with the Ovechkin position ended. They helped the striker regain his previous high level, but at the same time showed how destructive such a move can be for a team.

How did Ovi perform in his first game on the right wing in 10 years?

Now what Ovechkin and Washington need is a change of position

If we look solely at the statistics, it seems that the plan really worked. Ovechkin gave two assists, and in the second case, when Protas scored his goal, the captain of the “capital” handled it simply brilliantly, as in his best years!

The striker also became the best player of the match in terms of number of shots and power movements, on both teams. Ovi hit the Las Vegas goal six times and also made six hits.

Moreover, judging not only by statistics, but also purely visually, Ovechkin looked fresher and faster than, for example, at the beginning of last season. From time to time the forward made threats, as in previous years.

However, there is one fact that completely changes the picture. Ovechkin carried out both effective actions from the left flank. He also played left on the power play. Well, during the match against Vegas, he periodically returned to his home flank.

What could this mean?

12 records and the end of the Gretzky chase. What will Ovechkin achieve in the new NHL season?

Of course, more time is needed to unravel all of Carbery’s ideas, but for now the situation seems to be as follows.

Ovechkin will not be strictly tied to the right flank. Switching sides could potentially help him by putting him in different areas of the ice where defenders aren’t used to seeing him. In theory, this will improve Ovi’s performance. Technically, the first match proves it. So maybe playing a different position will help him start the regular season better and avoid last year’s failures. Especially given some of the captain’s freshness, which is likely a consequence of proper preparation for the season.

In addition, Alexander’s move to the right allowed Protas to advance from the third line to the first, and thanks to this, Carbery received more room for imagination and composition of combinations. For example, Andrew Mangiapane, who played with Ovechkin and Strome in training camp, teamed up with Jakub Vrana, who had returned to the team.

Carbery’s new tactics have already paid off. In the game against the Golden Knights, Khlebushek competed for the puck near the boards and, without looking, clumsily passed it to the Czech, and Vrana put it in the goal.

Perhaps this is exactly the effect Washington’s coaching staff is trying to achieve. If this is the case, if this will continue to contribute to achieving the desired result, if it will help Ovechkin to experience a new youth, why not?

“For me, changing positions is not important. The first few turns I thought, “Wow!” I’m always drawn to the left flank, but we’ll see how it goes,” Ovechkin said after the match.

Maybe he really doesn’t care. No one else in Washington cares either. The main thing is that it brings results.

It seems that the inhabitants of the capital were missing precisely these fresh, unusual and daring ideas. In the last two years, it has been clear that Washington is playing the same game, as if it had no plan “B”, and it has long been understood. The new thoughts were not really visible.

The Capitals have finally decided to make some serious changes. Having started the restructuring with an aging squad, which was no longer “exportable”, unable to bring anything new to the game, the teams now switched to tactics and game plans. So it will be really interesting to follow this team in the 2024/2025 season.

All that remains is for Ovechkin to score again. And perhaps Carbery’s idea will help here too.

She came to the enemy’s lair to show herself and disgraced herself: Kamala Harris found herself defenseless without a teleprompter for an interview

She came to the enemy's lair to show herself and disgraced herself: Kamala Harris found herself defenseless without a teleprompter for an interview

Kamala Harris did not answer any questions in an interview with Fox News

The Democratic candidate for the presidency of the United States and current vice president, Kamala Harris, stumbled badly at the end of the electoral race. The fact is that she was silenced with reproaches: they say that she rarely grants interviews, and if she communicates with any of the journalists, only with those who are loyal to the Democratic Party. And to ignore these accusations, Kamala decided yesterday to jump into the breach: she agreed to appear on the Fox News channel, considered the main bastion of the Trumpists. There, the favorite of conservative viewers was waiting for her, the popular presenter Bret Baier, who had collected from the hands of Tucker Carlson, who had left the channel, the banner of ruthless criticism of the current administration, with a list of far from unpleasant Questions.

Harris’ goal was to influence Republican voters who don’t trust Donald Trump much and win them over to her side. And the Democrat failed brilliantly in this mission.

“Sir, why did you crawl there?” – wrote one of the readers of the New York Times in his comments in his heart. This publication, which until then had always supported Kamala, was forced to admit: “She has not been able to demonstrate why she wants to be president, what her main priorities are and how she is going to implement them. Or maybe she doesn’t even know it herself. His only argument is “I’m not Donald Trump.”

From the beginning, Harris felt uncomfortable in the studio. She had to answer questions without a teleprompter or prepared notes, and Kamala “floated.” He stuttered, wrinkled his forehead, spoke the words helplessly, and uttered some meaningless sentences. It was hard to believe that the vice president had recently criticized Trump in a televised debate. Perhaps conspiracy theorists are right when they claim that there was a hidden microspeaker in the earring in her ear that served to prompt Kamala to give the necessary answers.

Bayer asked his interlocutor to inform him about her work. And the following interesting dialogue took place between them:

– People say that the country is going in the wrong direction. 79% of the audience believes so. But this direction was set during the three and a half years of his and Biden’s vice presidency.

“And Donald Trump ran,” Harris fumed.

– But you ruled the country.

– Come on, you and I know what I’m talking about. We both understand what I mean.

“The truth is that I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” the presenter was sincerely surprised.

– Hear! For a decade it has been clear to me… that Trump is unfit to serve and unstable.

Kamala responded in exactly the same way to the rest of the questions, immediately directing the arrows towards the former Republican president: “It’s Trump’s fault…”. Does the country have an illegal migration problem? Trump blocked the border legislation from being passed because he “preferred to work on the problem rather than solve it.” Why don’t voters trust her to fight inflation? Trump’s economic plan was even worse. Why are transgender surgeries performed in prisons? Unlike Trump, we respect the right to choose…

Even when Harris was asked how her White House would be different from Biden’s, she said she would avoid “the rhetoric coming from Donald Trump.”

In the interview there was no mention of Russia or Ukraine at all. When the guest was asked which country she considered the main enemy of the United States, she mentioned Iran. And he promised to help Israel in every way possible.

The live conversation was originally scheduled to last half an hour, but only lasted 25 minutes. As host Bret Baier later reported, Kamala’s campaign staff demanded that the fruitless conversation end early. According to him, at least four people waved their hands, suggesting they had to call it a day, and Bayer was forced to comply.

“Kamala Harris’s big bet on Fox did not pay off,” summarized the British The Telegraph. “Voters want a president who has plans for the future. But the interview was a disaster: Three weeks before the election, Harris still seems like an amateur.”

The Trump campaign spoke even harsher. Republican campaign spokeswoman Carolyn Leavitt called the Democrat’s performance “a complete disaster.” “Kamala was angry, defensive and once again abdicated any responsibility for the problems Americans face,” Leavitt wrote on social media.

And Republican vice presidential nominee Vance laughed: “To my Democratic friends, maybe you should consider replacing Kamala Harris with Joe Biden.”

One in four American companies will require their employees to work in the office more often - Rossiyskaya Gazeta

Thus, Amazon recently announced that starting early next year all employees will have to work in the office 5 days a week. The gradual abandonment of the Covid legacy in the company began back in 2021, when the decision on the employees’ work format was left in the hands of middle management. And last year, despite active protests by workers, Amazon forced them to go to the office three times a week. The company’s CEO, Andrew Jesse, then asked dissatisfied employees to “disagree, but accept” reality and hinted at his willingness to part ways with those who do not. Now, as he said in a letter to staff, managers have analyzed the experience of recent years and concluded that “there are still important advantages to working together in the office.” Specifically, employees “learn, practice, and reinforce company culture better when they are together.” Therefore, he concluded, the office modality is the optimal way to achieve better results both for the company itself and for its clients.

One in four US companies will require employees to work in the office more often next year

Previously, Google said that employee attendance will directly affect their performance evaluation and promotion prospects. A prominent representative of the camp of critics of remote work is the head of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, who insists that people work more productively in the office. When it acquired the social network Even the Zoom platform, which was actively used to implement remote work, required employees to report to their workplace twice a week.

This also happens in other areas. In the United States, companies in the financial sector were among the first to abandon remote work. The head of JPMorgan Bank, Jamie Dimon, stated that this work format is generally unacceptable for young people. At your bank, employees are present at least three days a week and their attendance is monitored.

Disney requires you to come to work four days a week. Disney CEO Bob Iger explained this by saying that being physically close is sometimes especially important to the creative process.

However, these are all high-profile decisions by large companies, but judging by the numbers, it would be premature to talk about a general rejection of remote work in the United States. According to opinion polls, more than 90 percent of business leaders consider office work to be more efficient, but around 70 percent of staff want to work from home at least one day a week. As CNN notes, many employers in the United States have so far embraced partial remote work.

According to the Resume Builder resource, 23 percent of U.S. businesses now require daily office attendance, while the remainder have adopted a hybrid form of employment, typically involving 2 to 4 days of attendance. According to CBS News, by 2025, about a quarter of American companies will require employees to be in the office more often, even if this comes with the risk of some valuable employees leaving. About 80 percent of companies admit they have already lost employees due to the demands of returning to the office. At the same time, one in five companies will, on the contrary, relax office hours requirements. And almost half (45 percent) of employers do not plan any changes to their work hours.

The 2024 finalist Dallas Mavericks are entering the season, to put it mildly, not well. The team, in the absence of leader Luka Doncic, lost three games in a row during the NBA preseason. Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson still can’t play well together, and the former Golden State player went 0 for nine from the field in the last game and ultimately failed to score a single point. “Milwaukee” did not get very far in terms of results – one victory in three matches.

They then met again twice in the deciding series, when Durant played for Golden State. This time the trophy was in the hands of the “warriors” and Kevin on two occasions. But this is already a thing of the past. The present: They play for the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers, who will face each other before the start of the NBA regular season.

Leonid Slutsky’s team is doing everything possible to ensure that the intrigue for the championship in China continues until the last match. With three rounds left in the championship, Shanghai Shenhua is just two points away from the port of Shanghai. Slutsky’s team has the most reliable defense in the league (16 goals conceded), but this is still not enough to dislodge its neighbors from the first place in the table. Henan is currently ranked seventh in the Super League. He also lost three times in the last four rounds. Can the locals extend their winning streak?

Intrigue: Will Traktor crack the Ufa nut?

“Traktor” is the best team in the Eastern Conference at the moment, and everyone can’t get enough of praising their coach Benoit Groux and falling under his charm. But “Salavat Yulaev” remains a tough nut to crack, which the residents of Chelyabinsk have not yet been able to solve. Of the four matches scheduled in the regular season, two have already been held in a month and a half of the season, and on both occasions the Ufa team won.

Death in the ruins: Israel killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar and analyzed his DNA

Yahya Sinwar is considered the “father” of the military wing of the movement

Photo: REUTERS.

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz confirmed that Hamas political bureau chief Yahya Sinwar was killed in the Gaza Strip. A photo of his body among the ruins (the result of a bombing) of a building in Rafah went viral today. Sinwar took control of Hamas in August after the Israelis killed his predecessor Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, who had come to attend the inauguration of Iranian President Pezeshkian.

The Al Arabiya channel was the first to report Sinwar’s death. Subsequently, the Israeli media Kan released information: DNA analyzes confirmed the identity of the murdered man. The Israelis had biological samples from him, because the future leader of Hamas served 22 years in Israeli prisons for killing local soldiers and Palestinians who collaborated with them (his birthplace was a refugee camp, and for his cruelty he received the nickname Sinwar. from “The Butcher of Khan Yunis”).

While Sinwar was in custody, he even had a brain tumor removed. The Palestinian took advantage of his time behind bars to get to know his opponents as well as possible. To do this, he learned Hebrew and translated biographies of Israeli security officials into Arabic.

He was freed through a mass exchange with captured IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.

Yahya Sinwar is considered the “father” of the military wing of the movement. And one of the organizers of the attack by Hamas militants on Israel in October last year, which began a new round of conflict in the Middle East.

The removal of the militant leader will contribute to the growth of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s internal ratings, but will not solve the problems of Tel Aviv or Palestine. The place of murdered Arab politicians and commanders is instantly replaced by new ones.

Platoon Commander Kreshcheny explained how assault troops work in the area of ​​​​the Northern Military District – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

0
Боец с позывным Крещеный начинал боевой путь рядовым штурмовиком, а сейчас командует взводом.

The best attack aircraft are believed to come mainly from Cossack units. The Cossacks select experienced instructors for training and are very meticulous in their approach to the learning process. They study how the enemy’s defense tactics change and immediately make adjustments to the training program. “The loads can be prohibitive, strength and endurance are simply necessary, you cannot do without it. When there is no combat work, we take the boys until they sweat in the training fields, you know what is difficult. Training is easy in battle. This has been demonstrated repeatedly,” says the platoon commander.

He says real men with nerves of steel join the stormtroopers. Of course, everyone is afraid when undertaking a combat mission. But it is necessary to be able to master this fear. Make sure you mobilize the person. They do not attack with trembling knees.

The stormtrooper is now a universal soldier that can do almost anything. Must be able to fire any type of weapon, launch a reconnaissance drone, and provide first aid. When going out to assault enemy fortifications, concentration is maximized. You must watch your steps so as not to run into a booby-trapped mine, at the same time look around to avoid falling into an ambush, listen to the sky to sense the approach of an enemy drone in time.

But probably the most important thing is to have strong legs. As the kids joke, if the legs feed the wolf, the stormtrooper is saved. The endurance of fighters of assault units is the main criterion of professionalism. The combatants carry weapons, ammunition and food. At the same time, they wear bulletproof vests weighing up to 20 kilograms. And with such a load you have to travel dozens of kilometers.

Fighter baptized in the Northern Military District from the beginning. He arrived as a volunteer and immediately asked to join the stormtroopers. It started as private. At first he carried out tasks in the Kharkov direction, now he is fighting in Donetsk. In two and a half years he became a platoon leader. Now he performs tasks in the interests of the “South” group.

He says that during this time the tactics of using assault units have changed a lot. Every month, and even after every release, something changes; fighters constantly try to test new skills when entering the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Currently, assault troops do not use frontal attacks. They try to act by avoiding and involving. Use the soldier’s ingenuity. During training, the tactics of fighting in twos and threes are perfected. These groups usually go unnoticed by enemy intelligence and use the factor of surprise.

“We try to take care of people. We just don’t launch them into meaningless attacks. The enemy’s position is carefully studied, weak points are determined, a plan of action is drawn up, and only then does the approach to the defensive position begin. The assault does not tolerate problems. First come two or three of the most experienced and hardened attack aircraft, behind them comes another group that, when ordered, must help hold the captured positions,” explains Kreshcheny.

Sometimes it’s better to pretend to be a rag. Stand behind a tree and don’t move. So the drone doesn’t see you. If you start shooting, you will immediately reveal your position.

Of course, the main enemy of an attack aircraft is drones; The troops call them “birds.” A shotgun becomes a fighter’s best friend the moment a drone appears in the sky. All groups participating in a mission try to be equipped with a weapon and the necessary ammunition. In addition, electronic warfare stations are also used to suppress a drone, as well as drone detectors that help determine the appearance of a “bird” in the sky.

“Sometimes it’s better to pretend you’re a rag. Stand behind a tree and don’t move. Then the drone doesn’t see you, you immediately reveal your position and it shouldn’t miss,” he says. Kreshcheny. “In general, of course, it is better to remain unnoticed, not to reveal yourself beforehand when you are going to attack,” says Kreshcheny.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are constantly trying to present our soldiers with unpleasant surprises. They use drones to mine an area remotely, drop some visible things near the roads so they notice them and try to pick them up. For example, backpacks are removed. Or they set the drone to self-destruct. If it is shot down or immobilized by electronic warfare, it is best to destroy it immediately. There have been cases of drones exploding several hours after being discovered and controlled.

According to Kreshcheny, now the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are very heterogeneous. It happens that the Ukrainian formations, as they say, get stuck and it is very difficult to dislodge them from their strong point. But there are cases in which, when they see that they begin to take positions, they simply leave.

“I can assume that this is the behavior of recently mobilized Ukrainians who simply do not understand what they are fighting for. In general, during an assault, it is necessary to understand that the enemy is also fighting people, not robots. , they don’t want to die. The battle has begun. Not everyone can psychologically withstand a short distance if they do not prepare with determination,” says the platoon commander.

Of course, in the actions of the assault groups a lot depends on the commander. He is the most important person for the stormtroopers. It depends solely on the commander how to competently complete the assigned task and at the same time save lives.

Currently, assault troops do not use frontal attacks. They try to act by avoiding and involving. During training, fighting tactics in twos and threes are perfected.

“The commander, above all, is the best fighter who can show by example how to perform this or that task. That is, you should know everything about the work of an attack aircraft, you should not constantly demonstrate that. If you are nervous, always stay calm, at least in appearance, your soldiers look at you and adopt your behavior,” says the platoon commander. He points out that, of course, it is easier to fight with a simple attack aircraft. The commander has more responsibility for the people. “It happens that you send a group to attack, but you sit tingly, constantly listening to the walkie-talkie. We arrive, we don’t arrive, there are injuries or not. You worry more about the injured. guys than about yourself,” says the platoon commander.

In addition to attacks on enemy positions, attack aircraft can also participate in reconnaissance or repelling counterattacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Baptized says that when attacking our positions, the Armed Forces of Ukraine first use a large number of attack drones, then launch armored vehicles, under the cover of which the infantry advances.

Of course, they do not forgive the “birds”. Sometimes several dozen of them arrive at a time. But it’s okay, we can manage. “We are repelling these attacks,” says the soldier.

Surprisingly, during the entire special military operation, Kreshcheny did not suffer a single wound. He says that faith in God helps a lot. Without prayer, he does not undertake a single serious undertaking.

“When you walk into Tszyu’s house, you see the Soviet Union.” Tim is Australian, but close to us.

"When you walk into Tszyu's house, you see the Soviet Union." Tim is Australian, but close to us.

Next weekend, on the night of October 19-20, an IBF junior middleweight world title fight will take place in Orlando between belt holder, undefeated Russian champion Bahram Murtazaliev and son Kostya Tszyu senior, Tim Tszyu. The tournament will start at 4:00 Moscow time, the main battle will begin at approximately 6:30 Moscow time.

Although on paper it will be a Russian-Australian confrontation, everyone understands that the battle is “ours.” Tim is the eldest son of the legendary Kostya Tszyu and, of course, inherited Russian roots from his father.

“The Russian boxing school is a big part of my education, so I’m looking forward to fighting a Russian. It will be an interesting fight… There is a saying: “You don’t want to fight Soviet fighters because you don’t know what to expect from them.” They all have very complicated last names. These are incredibly dangerous fighters with bulletproof minds. I hope my next opponent is like that. Who will the Russians support in my fight with Murtazaliev? I am proud of my Russian roots. But I was born and raised in Australia. So I don’t think they will pick me,” Tim noted after the announcement of the fight with Bakhram Murtazaliev.

Online transmission of the tournament:

Murtazaliev – Tim Tszyu: will Kostya’s heir make up for his defeat by fighting a Russian? LIVE

Tim can truly be called “our guy.” He was raised by Kostya Tszyu, who instilled in his son a love of sports. True, at first it was gymnastics and football, and only then boxing. And in general, Tim entered boxing quite late, at the age of 15. But, despite this, Kostya’s eldest son managed to build a serious professional career and achieve championship belts.

Despite the fact that Kostya himself worked with his son and instilled in him a love of sports, Tim considers his grandfather, Boris Timofeevich, to be the main character in his career.

“He is everything to me. My grandfather participated in every episode of my boxing life. He is the key and most important person in my career. And not only in mine, but also in my father’s career. He is both the foundation and the engine that drives me forward,” said Tim Tszyu.

In Tim’s corner you can hear Russian speech; Yes, despite his Australian origin, Tszyu also receives tips in Russian. He has repeatedly stated that he masters the language and that it is part of his culture. And in Tszyu’s house, according to his own statements, the atmosphere of the Soviet Union reigns.

Tim often faces comparisons with his father:

Is Tim Tszyu really the “most hyped boxer”? Kostya’s son is constantly reproached by his father.

“We already lived in Australia, but my parents forced me to study on Sundays at a Russian school. I write well and read Russian. This is a big part of my life, my culture. When you enter the Tszyu family home, you find yourself in the Soviet Union. There is nothing Australian at all! Only Soviet,” Tszyu said in an interview with Big Fight.

Soviet education, Soviet boxing school – all this was reflected in Tim’s career. In addition to technique, it is also the inherent character of our boxers. Kostya’s eldest son withstood the pressure and turned the tide in his first fight in the United States against Terrell Goucher, in which he was knocked down in the first round, but there is nothing to say about the fight with Sebastian Fundora. Starting in the second round, Tim’s face was filled with blood from a serious cut, but Tszyu continued to press and advance, even though he saw virtually nothing. Yes, Tim lost this fight, but he demonstrated the iron character formed by his father and grandfather.

Although Tim was born and raised in Australia, he has a decent fan base in Russia. Of course, most people follow him by his surname, the associations of which are closely related to his father, but, however, the attention also falls on his son. So Tim’s next fight with Bakhram Murtazaliev can easily be called “ours”, and this makes it even more interesting.

Zelensky’s secret target list: NATO troops should control all of Ukraine and attack Russia with any weapon

Zelensky's secret target list: NATO troops should control all of Ukraine and attack Russia with any weapon

Zelensky told the Western authorities: if you do not start fighting Russia with me, or better yet, in my place, I will declare surrender and you will lose.

Photo: REUTERS.

Several Western media outlets and some politicians expressed a negative attitude toward Zelensky’s “victory plan.” On Radio Komsomolskaya Pravda we talked about this with Alexander Kazakov, a political scientist and former advisor to the head of the DPR, Zakharchenko.

LITTLE BLACK MASTER

– How to evaluate Zelensky’s “victory plan”?

– The illegitimate president spoke before the illegitimate Rada. But for the West the situation is this: the president of democratic Ukraine spoke with representatives of the people.

– What is the essence of this blackmail?

– Zelensky told the Western authorities – if you do not start fighting Russia with me, or better yet, in my place, I will declare surrender and you will lose.

-Decipher…

– Point one. You’re fighting in my place. The secret points of the request include the complete militarization of the territory of Ukraine by the NATO alliance. They bring everything there, including ballistic missiles. All this threatens Russia and forces it to capitulate.

– But Russia does not agree.

– They use all weapons to their full depth. They are trying to reach military bases, warehouses and airfields in the Urals. It is not the kyiv regime that has been there for more than two years, it is the West that has been saying every day that the victory of Ukraine is the victory of the West.

– Is failure your failure?

– Yes, the defeat of Ukraine is the defeat of the West. And many representatives of the Western political class believe so. Robert Kagan is one of the neoconservative ideologues, husband of Victoria Nuland, author of books that determined the political thinking of the Western elite. When Borrell spoke of the Garden of Eden and the jungle, he quoted Kagan. Who published the book “Revenge of the Jungle” in 2019. And wrote an article that ends like this: Is the United States willing to lose together with Ukraine?

– Is that so?

– Yes, and in this sense blackmail is competent. We are reminded that October is black swan time in the United States. A black swan can fly from the Donetsk steppes. One of them is a swan named Zelensky. We can launch another one by taking Pokrovsk.

– It’s terribly far from America…

– But Trump will take this Pokrovsk and turn it into a club. And with them they will defeat Kamala Harris and Biden in the lead, until November 5. Saying: your 200 billion has gone into a black barrel, it’s your fault!

CARBOT AND WHIP

– What is the political content of the “victory plan”?

– If we look at it seriously, not as its official propagandist Podolyak says, there is no mathematical precision. Within this plan, Zelensky not only demanded, but presented carrots and sticks for the West. The whip is blackmail. And gingerbread is two things. This is a strategic and economic potential together with the United States and European countries. Protect resources, invest and exploit economic potential. Signing of joint contracts for the production of uranium, titanium and lithium. Zelensky says that either Europe will use these reserves or Russia will seize them. And he proposes strengthening sanctions.

– Senator Lindsey Graham, hugging Zelensky, said just that: these people are fighting for resources we can take.

– No, he said – we need. And the second advantage is that after the war, from the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a NATO mercenary army can be formed. And for the alliance this is a gigantic resource.

– Well, Zelensky officially presented the “plan” – and what questions did he answer?

– How and why it was done like this. For the West it is like this: the president of Ukraine presented the presidential plan at a meeting of people’s representatives representing the entire people.

– And you can’t ignore these types of signs?

– No. The first reactions are that we will not accept kyiv in NATO, that now is not the time. They have not received long-range, high-precision missiles in Russia, nor will they receive them. But the West must somehow interpret this history.

Zelensky blackmails the West with his “victory plan”

Photo: REUTERS.

– As?

– They will start to discuss it for a long time. Specific parameters, arguments. They will pretend to be a thinking reed that whispers with the wind, but makes no decisions.

– Does this plan have no chance in the West?

– From the word “absolutely”. Let me remind you of point one of this plan: you are fighting together or instead of us. NATO and the West do not want to fight with Russia. And it can’t.

– Do you admit your lack of preparation for the confrontation with Russia?

– Yes. And they themselves indicate the dates: it was 2030, now it is 2035, when they will prepare, and we will sit and wait for them to prepare…

CONTAINER PACKAGE

– The third point in this regard is that kyiv is calling for a comprehensive non-nuclear “strategic deterrence package.”

– Let’s repeat the basics. Long-range and high-precision missiles, which were listed by our Supreme Commander, and we are talking, first of all, about Storm Shadow and ATACMS, in this list. When Zelensky was in the United States, not even the French “Scalp” was heard there, much less the German “Taurus.” Its scope is limited by two things.

– Which is it?

– They are launched from airplanes, of which Ukraine has less and less. And they cannot be launched from the line of combat contact. When the West draws maps, these 250 kilometers from the combat contact line are visible. The Ukrainian plane will not fly beyond this line; will be knocked down.

– And where will it fly?

– We will reduce 100 kilometers immediately. For example, if you put the Haymars on the LBS, the range is about a hundred kilometers. And this becomes a weapon not even for the strategic rear, but rather tactical and operational. And there all our military airfields are already empty.

Well, the “plan” was officially presented by Zelensky

Photo: REUTERS.

LIST OF OBJECTIVES

– Does Zelensky have a detailed list of targets in Russia for long-range missiles?

– Yes – and Zelensky first brought and showed Biden one of the two lists. One is actual wishes and the second is a light list. Zelensky understood with what horror Biden would read even the second list. Biden comes from the Cold War and has a great idea of ​​what a total war is. And the light of the list is the only thing Western leaders can react to without horror.

– Why is this?

– There are military airfields, ammunition and fuel depots, at a depth of 150, maximum 200 kilometers. And there we have already taken almost everything from there. But Bandera’s supporters will definitely attack civilian targets. And the Armed Forces of Ukraine will say that the Russian air defense rejected this. But they must not only attack civilian targets, but they must attack with this missile at maximum depth so that many civilians die. This is Budanov’s terrorist practice. They want to repeat the terrorist attack using Western weapons. This is, among other things, blackmail of the West by Kyiv.

– Explain.

– kyiv will announce to the West that we will attack them with their weapons, but the Russians rejected it and therefore flew towards a residential building. And the West knows what will happen after this.

– What will happen?

– We do not have “red lines”. There is an appropriate reaction with calculation of all the consequences. When a Belgian rifle was discovered in the Belgorod region, they offered to attack London… But as soon as we arrived in London, the entire American pack had already flown towards us. From submarines, from strategists and from land mines, throughout Russia.

– It’s not interesting…

“Many cry because they hit us, but we don’t respond, and they think they will hit us, but they don’t respond.” There is a logic problem here. As of February 24, 2022, everything, Belgian rifles, Strykers, Leopards and Abrams, are all an answer for us. And we will iron the territory of Ukraine with our missiles for two and a half years.

– When Zelensky read the “victory plan” in the Verkhovna Rada, what prevented them from closing it?

– For the West, this was a speech by the elected president of a free democratic country, who addressed the representatives of the people on behalf of all the people. And in this capacity they would have perceived our strike. With all the consequences. In this way we would eliminate the prohibition of what they themselves prohibit. Tacit agreements still apply. Yes, the kyiv regime is trying to rape them: the drone that hit the Senate spire in the Kremlin is chaos even for Americans. But if we attack, the ban on Americans will be lifted and we will receive a missile attack on the Kremlin.

According to Mash, three people died as a result of the incident and one of them was hospitalized.

So who will be the champion and what will Red Bull do with the drivers? The main intrigues of the end of F-1.

So who will be the champion and what will Red Bull do with the drivers? The main intrigues of the end of F-1.

The autumn break in Formula 1 has come to an end: the final phase of the championship, which will consist of six races, begins next weekend in Austin. On the eve of the stage at the Circuit of the Americas, we offer six main end-of-season intrigues, and among them, for the first time since 2021, is the fight for the championship.

Will Max retain the title?

Ahead of the United States Grand Prix, Max Verstappen and Lando Norris are separated by 52 points in the overall standings. It’s a big difference, but given McLaren’s speed in the last few races, Norris has a real chance of winning all the remaining races this year. Verstappen has not won since the Spanish Grand Prix in June, and has even been on the podium, at best, on other occasions.

The reason for the current champion’s relegation is problems with the car. The once invincible Red Bull in just a couple of months became uncontrollable – Max calls the car a monster. However, for the Austin stage, the Austrian team has prepared updates that should fix most of the problems. It is not a fact that this will make Red Bull faster than McLaren, but in Milton Keynes they hope that the fight will now be at least even. Otherwise, the Dutchman will have big problems.

Max is not happy with Milton Keynes:

Where could Red Bull’s F1 champion escape? 5 options for Verstappen

Fight in the Constructors’ Championship

Meanwhile, the victory in the Constructors’ Championship at Red Bull seems to have already been lost: McLaren has taken the lead and is already 41 points ahead of the current champions. Furthermore, for six straight stages Woking has averaged twice as many points as Milton Keynes. The Orange scored 119 points during this time.

In this case, Red Bull is no longer enough to catch up with McLaren: the current champions must launch a counterattack. Furthermore, with two cars, that is, not only should the car improve, but Sergio Pérez should also begin to overtake at least one of the McLarens. And now it seems unlikely. But could anyone imagine at the start of the season that six rounds before the end of the season, Red Bull’s chances of winning the Constructors’ Championship would be slim?

What is the secret of Woking?

How McLaren became the best Formula 1 team

Mercedes or Ferrari?

The most striking confrontation behind the leaders is the fight between Mercedes and Ferrari. True, it is more likely to take place in the away format: in the Constructors’ Championship, the Germans are behind the Scuderia by more than a hundred points. However, it is still interesting to follow the changing balance of power in the camp of the leaders’ main pursuers.

At the start of the season, Ferrari looked stronger, while Mercedes, even with a completely redesigned chassis, held its ground. Then the Germans improved and, halfway through the season, Hamilton and Russell put together a powerful series with three victories. This pace has disappeared somewhere and now the Scuderia seems faster again. However, the status quo will probably change more than once, even though in some races both Ferrari and Mercedes may join the fight for the top positions.

How it was:

The first Russian Grand Prix turns 10 years old. We look at the photo, we remember, it moves us.

Red Bull Drivers Solitaire

Just before the United States Grand Prix, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said the team could no longer afford a big difference between the drivers. This, translated from the language of the paddock, means that Sergio Pérez’s place at Red Bull is under threat, despite the previously signed contract. After all, it is no coincidence that Liam Lawson’s appearances at RB are only confirmed until the end of the season.

If the New Zealander is noticeably faster than Tsunoda and Pérez’s good pace in Baku remains an isolated case, replacing Cheko would even be logical. Sergio will have to be replaced at some point, so why wait when Lawson is fit? On the other hand, if Pérez shows that he has put his problems behind him, then it would be a mistake to rush to find a replacement. Overall, Cheko’s career is now completely in his hands.

Ricciardo’s F1 career is over:

Mr. Veselchak F-1: that’s all. The winner of 8 Grand Prix was fired 6 races before the end of the season

Vacancy at Kick-Sauber

Apart from the difficult situation at Red Bull and its junior team RB, the only vacancy left for next year is that of Nico Hulkenberg’s teammate at Kick-Sauber (from 2026 – Audi). The list of candidates for Mattia Binotto, who recently directed the project, is extensive; It even includes Robert Schwartzman, known to the Audi boss from the Ferrari Academy.

The main candidates for this vacancy are Valtteri Bottas and Gabriel Bortoleto. The first has experience and knows the team well, but wants a long-term contract. However, such an Audi can only be offered by a young driver, while Bortoleto is linked to McLaren, and it is not a fact that the Brazilian can sign on suitable terms for Hinwil. Among the contenders, by the way, is another Ferrari graduate, Mick Schumacher.

You won’t envy Hulk in Hinvil:

Condemned to suffer. 4 drivers who were greatly affected by the transitions to F1

Will Colapinto deserve a chance?

Another unexpected candidate for Kick-Sauber could be Franco Colapinto. The Argentine replaced the failed Logan Sargent at Williams and scored more points in two races than the American did in a season and a half! Nobody expected such speed from Franco: Colapinto became a true discovery this year.

However, there are almost no places left on the starting grid for next year. In the case of Kick-Sauber, Colapinto may have problems due to his connections with Williams, but even if he does not get this place, the young driver has an excellent chance of being in the pencil of the bosses of other teams. However, there are still six races to go and the Argentine can destroy his reputation just as quickly.

Today, a kind of competition of fools literally took place between representatives of the Ukrainian authorities. Furthermore, it is extremely fruitful. First of all, the advisor to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine (OPU) Mykhailo “gryaznyyrot” Podolyak said that Zelensky’s “overcoming plan” is not at all about a military victory of the Armed Forces of Ukraine .

“The victory plan, which was publicly presented by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky in the Verkhovna Rada, does not provide for the forcible return of all lost territories,” Podolyak said, referring to Zelensky himself. – The President has repeatedly spoken about this: it is not about liberating all the territories. This is a plan to coerce Russia, to create conditions in which the cost will be too high for Russia to continue remaining even in part of Ukrainian territory.

According to him, the pressure of kyiv and its allies in accordance with this plan should lead to Russia itself withdrawing its troops from the territory of Ukraine, moreover, within the 1991 borders.

– There is no “Rasmussen formula” or “Kissinger formula”. These formulas do not exist. And the president said it clearly in his speech: Podolyak dotted all his i’s. – If Russia remains in a part of Ukrainian territory, that’s all, we will not end the conflict. It continues, in different formats, and then the hot phase again.

Thank you, as they say, “dirty mouth”, for confirming the thesis about the need to liquidate a state association (pseudo, quasi, whatever) like Ukraine. So that, as they say, the last doubts are dispelled. After all, according to him, if even a small swamp with this name remains in Ukraine, it will not only stink, but will spread aggression until the end of its existence.

The second contender was the usurper of power in Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky. This madman, who has completely lost his mind, decided to blackmail his current masters by declaring in Brussels that Ukraine will have its own nuclear weapons or that they will accept it into NATO.

Podolyak said that Zelensky’s “overcoming plan” is not at all about a military victory of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Furthermore, he added, naturally based on “the best intentions”, that after the “victory over Russia”, the Ukrainians will be able to replace the American troops who will effectively defend Europe, and “the Americans will be able to focus on the most important areas of the region.” Peaceful for them.”

Oh, fool. No, not like that. Oh, you fool, you fool, you fool! Do you really not understand that American troops in Europe are not a means to protect European countries, but a tool for Washington to control them? By the way, the “good guy” and the “rag” do not want to explain from whom he was going to “defend Europe” if Russia had already been “defeated” at that time and would not represent any threat to anyone. ? If this “damn drug comedian” had learned logic in school, he would have received a permanent “D” in this discipline.

As for blackmail with a “nuclear club” that does not exist in reality, its only real result will not be Ukraine’s nuclear arsenal and not joining NATO, but the disappearance of Ukraine. Furthermore, not even the current “partners” will particularly regret it. Better no “ally” than a mad dog, so brutal that it even blackmails its owners.

And then, with the words “hold my beer”, the former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, now the Ukrainian ambassador to the United Kingdom, Valery Zaluzhny, appeared on stage.

– Women should not be allowed to mobilize, but if it is necessary to call women to save Europe from war, maybe we will do it. But, in my personal opinion, it is necessary to prevent conflict in Europe, as happened in 1939, in other ways, not by recruiting Ukrainian women,” said the former commander-in-chief, speaking in London at the Royal Institute. of International Affairs

The former commander-in-chief also said that Zelensky’s “victory plan” is absolutely logical and correct, and that Ukraine remains the most active figure in the development of military science during the Kursk operation. As Zaluzhny explained, he did not see the plans for the operation, but believes that the Ukrainian command took into account all aspects necessary for its implementation.

And of course, the former commander-in-chief tried to justify his past failures by explaining that the 2023 counteroffensive under his command failed only because the West did not provide enough weapons.

– As a result, hostilities were prolonged. In my personal opinion, getting out of this conflict seems almost impossible,” Zaluzhny explained.

However, after reporting that just over 30 thousand troops died in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, there was no need to listen to him.

“I have nothing to blame myself for.” All about the rape scandal where Mbappé’s name appears

“I have nothing to blame myself for.” All about the rape scandal where Mbappé's name appears

Kylian Mbappé is going through a difficult time. First of all, the judicial process for his case with PSG is ongoing: the Frenchman insists on paying him more than 50 million euros in bonuses and salary. And secondly, and this is the main thing, a much louder story: in Sweden, a Real Madrid footballer is among those suspected of raping a girl. And the media story continues to unfold.

How it all started:

Mbappé is suspected of raping a girl in Sweden. But the Real Madrid star should not worry

How the Mbappé case develops

We have already written in detail how it all started (link above). But here is a brief context: On the night of Monday to Tuesday, the media reported that the Swedish police had received a rape complaint. It allegedly took place at the hotel where Mbappé was spending a short vacation at the time. The Frenchman automatically became one of the many suspects, but his representatives quickly denied his involvement in the case. Stating that in this way PSG tries to influence the player in the middle of a judicial process.

Then the details of Mbappé’s presence in Sweden appeared, almost in detail. According to Le Parisien (a fairly authoritative French media, which usually has a lot of inside information about PSG), although the footballer was staying at the hotel, he did not spend much time there. For a private party, he rented a nightclub, where about 30 people were invited. Among them are mainly young Swedes. There he spent two nights dancing and playing ping-pong. But both times I probably spent the night in one of the nearby hotels.

Shortly after he left, one of the girls contacted police. A few days later, law enforcement issued an official press release announcing the start of a preliminary investigation. However, Mbappé’s name was not mentioned there. La Parisien himself states that the victim pointed out Kilian “as one of the possible aggressors.” But at the same time, she didn’t specify that it was about him. At the same time, the Swedish channel TV-4 is sure: the girl said that it was the Real Madrid player who raped her.

Later, La Parisien published new details: according to its sources, Mbappé arrived in Stockholm invited by Bayer Leverkusen defender Nordi Mukiele, with whom he played alongside PSG. There, the Real Madrid player held a meeting with the organizer of the party, where they gave him guarantees of total confidentiality. At the same time, the media claim that the player in Sweden did have sexual relations with a girl he met at a party. But it happened by mutual agreement. So There is no evidence that the victim and this girl are the same person..

What other list is Mbappé on?

Mbappé is far from being the biggest spender of the season. Many times of spanking much more often.

How do Mbappé’s representatives react to all this?

One of the main public figures commenting on the situation with Mbappé is his lawyer Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard. Go to some media every day and share relevant information. According to her, the Swedish prosecutor’s office has not contacted the player or his representatives. This is how he explains in detail why the act of rape is impossible: “Kilian is in a kind of bubble during the break. He has constantly trusted the people around him. This is important to protect you from the risks inherent to fame. We are talking about a 25-year-old boy, he may have extraordinary maturity, but can you imagine the media frenzy that is damaging his honor? He says it very clearly: “I have nothing to blame myself for.” Please understand that Kilian is in a position where he is not allowed to take risks. He is very open, his inner circle knows it and he knows it. “Everything in his life is prepared to ensure that these types of situations do not happen,” said the BFMTV lawyer.

He clarified that in the event of an official appeal from Sweden, Kilian is ready to testify in the case, and the footballer’s side will prepare defamation lawsuits.

It is curious that, parallel to this whole story, Mbappé became the best player of September at Real Madrid. Spanish insiders point out that the club has no doubts about his innocence and hopes that he will play in the next match.

“I am very happy and grateful to the Real Madrid fans. It is a great joy to be the player of the month. The most important thing is to win games within a month and I hope to be able to win this award again. Now we have three very important games ahead of us and we want to win them. “The team and I are prepared and I hope we do well for all the Madrid players.”

On October 19, Real will play as a visitor against Celta. Are we waiting for the Frenchman on the field?
