0:02 London wants to talk to Moscow. Moscow
0:04 tells them to get lost. The Krakow
0:07 shooter—naturally, there's a Russian
0:09 trail. Under the helmet was an ushanka.
0:12 Democracy, Armenian-style. An opposition
0:15 leader has died in prison. In Abu Dhabi
0:18 , they are crystallizing decisions to
0:20 show to Putin and Zelensky. A morning
0:23 meeting without sensations, a lunch
0:24 break, the evening session continues.
0:27 The door was slammed in the faces of the
0:29 Europeans. The Belarusian trio acts as
0:32 mediators at the Abu Dhabi talks. Oops,
0:34 partitioning Kyiv along the Dnieper.
0:37 Russia is shooting down the latest
0:40 American Rusty Dagger cruise missiles.
0:42 Austria demands that Ukrainian
0:44 pensioners return hundreds of thousands
0:46 of euros. 700,000 rubles. A new fine for
0:49 discrediting traditional values. Keep
0:52 your mouth shut. Thin but blind—the
0:54 price for the skinny trend.
1:00 Hello. I'm Ilya Kramarovsky in the
1:02 studio, and we begin the evening news
1:04 for Tuesday, November 10th.
1:07 Congressman Thomas Massie has once again
1:09 introduced a resolution in the House of
1:10 Representatives to impeach U.S.
1:12 Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.
1:15 Moreover, the charges against the
1:16 Pentagon chief are brought by a
1:17 Republican, that is, a representative of
1:18 the president's own party.
1:21 There are eight charges in the
1:23 resolution, including unauthorized war
1:26 with Iran, violation of civilian
1:28 protection laws, military operations in
1:30 Venezuela and Yemen, which Massie deems
1:33 illegal, and suppression of free speech
1:36 Why is it important that the resolution
1:38 was introduced again? Now the House of
1:40 Representatives has two legislative days
1:44 For now, it is a matter of considering
1:46 the charges, not an actual removal of
1:51 Trump, for his part, has already called
1:53 on congressmen to stand with Hegseth.
1:56 This is how he described the
1:57 resolution's initiator: election-losing
2:00 Republican Congressman Massie, a total
2:02 loser, is trying to impeach perhaps the
2:04 country's most popular and successful
2:07 military leader, Pete Hegseth.
2:10 With record army recruitment and two
2:12 victories in Venezuela and Iran, Hegseth
2:15 deserves praise, not impeachment.
2:17 Congress, support Pete, the American
2:20 president wrote. Massie himself is not
2:22 returning to the next Congress.
2:24 Back in May, he lost the Republican
2:27 primary in Kentucky to Ed Gallrein, who
2:29 was supported by Trump, and on November
2:31 3rd, Gallrein won the general election.
2:34 So Massie is raising the issue of the
2:36 secretary's fate when the question of
2:37 his own seat in the next House of
2:39 Representatives is already settled.
2:41 A little revenge. Trump spoke about why
2:44 Republicans lost the election in an
2:46 interview with the 60 Minutes program on
2:48 CBS. Among the reasons this time were
2:51 the war with Iran, rising gas prices,
2:53 and the American voters 'attitude toward
2:55 Israel. In Trump's words, there is an
2:58 incredible antipathy toward Israel.
3:01 He said he did not argue with Vance, who
3:03 wrote that it was time to end the war
3:05 and change relations with Israel.
3:07 At the same time, he still considers the
3:09 decision to attack Iran correct.
3:11 And yet, the main explanation for the
3:12 defeat remains something else for him.
3:14 Trump’s own name was not on the ballot.
3:19 Now, the one who would like to return to
3:21 the White House is press secretary Katie
3:22 Zakaria, who was fired in October.
3:24 According to the New York Post, she has
3:26 the desire, but officials give her zero
3:28 chance. From Trump himself, one can
3:30 hardly expect a warm recommendation
3:32 either. He calls her a disaster.
3:34 Great Britain, meanwhile, is looking for
3:36 a way to talk to Moscow beyond official
3:38 diplomatic contacts.
3:40 In an interview with the Financial Times
3:42 , Defense Secretary Wes Streeting
3:44 explained why London needs another
3:46 informal channel to avoid
3:49 In his wording, it is the risk of
3:51 miscalculation that arises from what the
3:53 minister calls an act of state terrorism
3:57 If you compare Britain with France or
3:59 Germany, the British have fewer
4:01 opportunities to reach Russian
4:03 counterparts through political or
4:06 We have an embassy in Moscow; that is an
4:08 important channel. I would prefer there
4:10 to be additional channels, especially at
4:12 a military level. There is always a risk
4:14 of miscalculation, and that is why it is
4:16 so important to have direct
4:17 communication, said Streeting. British
4:20 officials clarify that London has
4:21 already tried to restore unofficial
4:23 contact with high-ranking
4:24 representatives of the Russian Ministry
4:26 of Defense. Opening such a channel has
4:28 not been successful yet. In response,
4:30 they were told to go to hell. I mean, a
4:31 refusal was received.
4:33 How can you talk to people who talk
4:35 about state terrorism?
4:36 Have you lost your minds? Go to hell.
4:39 Washington and Beijing have a different
4:40 problem. There, according to the Wall
4:42 Street Journal, they cannot even agree
4:45 on how to hold a conversation if Putin,
4:47 Trump, and Xi Jinping actually meet as a
4:50 The Chinese side suggests that each
4:52 leader read a pre-prepared statement and
4:56 The Americans want to be able to freely
4:58 discuss what they hear.
4:59 Imagine the difference.
5:01 In one case, you can ask the other
5:03 person a question and hear an answer
5:05 immediately; in the other, everyone
5:06 reads from a piece of paper, and the
5:11 The Krakow shooter. To be honest, I was
5:13 already starting to worry about why the
5:15 degenerates and imbeciles hadn't
5:16 appeared for so long.
5:18 But it's fine, as they say, the show
5:21 So, as always, everything turned out to
5:25 Polish Justice Minister Waldemar Zurik
5:26 stated that Russia might be involved in
5:28 the shooting in Krakow.
5:30 We are not ruling out Russian
5:32 interference. Anyone who has read
5:34 Suvorov's "Aquarium" knows what a
5:38 Prosecutor of the National Prosecutor's
5:40 Office of Poland Elik Staselyak: we will
5:42 examine every version, including the
5:44 News has come from Armenia about the
5:46 death of Arsen Gevorkyan, a member of
5:48 the opposition "Strong Armenia" party,
5:50 in a detention center. As Sputnik
5:52 Armenia reports, citing the republic's
5:54 Ministry of Justice, he had no prior
5:56 health complaints. Gevorkyan was a
5:58 candidate for mayor of Stepanavan and
5:59 had been under arrest since the end of
6:02 He was only 46 years old.
6:05 I wonder if progressive democratic
6:07 Europe will notice this death or not?
6:09 What do you think? Well, I know what we
6:11 will hear from the drummer. Well, I
6:13 definitely have nothing to do with this
6:14 , he did it himself.
6:16 In Moldova, Foreign Minister Mihai
6:17 Popsoi announced new restrictions
6:19 against Russia and Belarus.
6:22 According to him, Chisinau has joined 91
6:24 %of European sanctions and now wants to
6:27 close the remaining gap.
6:29 That is, for the minister, the question
6:31 is no longer whether to impose
6:33 restrictions, but how to catch up with
6:34 the EU on positions Moldova hasn't
6:38 We still have a slight lag regarding the
6:40 sectoral package of sanctions introduced
6:42 back in 2014, which we haven't joined
6:44 yet and which concerns Russia and
6:47 This gap must be closed to achieve one
6:50 hundred percent alignment. We are
6:52 currently working on finding solutions
6:54 and the necessary mechanisms, "stated
6:56 Popsoi. I have just one main question.
6:58 If they have already supported 91%of the
7:00 sanctions, how did Russia respond to
7:02 that? If they take it to 100%now, how
7:04 will Russia respond?
7:05 I mean, why are there still any Moldovan
7:07 goods, why is electricity supplied there
7:09 , apart from Transnistria?
7:11 I don't understand. Who is in charge of
7:13 this? Or perhaps the correct answer is
7:14 that no one is in charge of this?
7:16 Well, why do we still hear about Moldova
7:20 There are more questions than answers,
7:22 as always. If anyone knows if Russia has
7:24 imposed any sanctions against Moldova,
7:27 please write in the comments.
7:30 The event of the day is the negotiations
7:31 in Abu Dhabi. Moving on to them. On the
7:34 eve of the meeting, India reached out to
7:36 both sides. As Bloomberg writes, New
7:38 Delhi wants to participate more actively
7:40 in efforts to end the war.
7:42 Previously, the Indian leadership
7:43 approached this issue cautiously, partly
7:45 due to long-standing ties with Moscow.
7:47 Now, contacts have become more frequent
7:49 , taking place in parallel with both
7:50 Russia and Ukraine. On Monday, Narendra
7:53 Modi spoke by phone with Volodymyr
7:56 The Indian government stated that the
7:58 Prime Minister offered to contribute to
8:00 a peaceful settlement.
8:02 On the same day, another phone call took
8:04 place via foreign ministries. Indian
8:07 Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar
8:10 contacted Sergey Lavrov. This
8:13 conversation was reported by the Russian
8:16 Well, let's see what our friends from
8:20 What do the American negotiators want to
8:22 get from the meeting in the Emirates?
8:25 According to a US official who spoke to
8:27 Axios, the task for Steve Witkoff and
8:29 Jared Kushner is to crystallize
8:31 solutions that Putin and Zelenskyy must
8:34 then personally accept.
8:37 After the meeting in Dubai, both
8:38 American representatives may head to
8:40 Moscow and Kyiv to discuss remaining
8:42 issues with the presidents.
8:44 The work will be divided between two
8:46 groups. The military one will be led by
8:48 the commander of the US European Command
8:50 , General Alexus Grynkewich.
8:52 It will discuss who and how will monitor
8:54 the truce, if reached, and what security
8:57 measures will be needed after the war.
9:00 The political group took on the most
9:01 difficult dispute over territories. US
9:04 officials privately say that in recent
9:07 weeks, both Kyiv and Moscow have shown
9:12 However, Washington believes that the
9:14 territorial part cannot be settled until
9:16 the parties agree on security guarantees
9:20 So, where in this scheme are the
9:22 Europeans, who want the war to continue
9:26 For them, the Americans organized a
9:27 separate discussion behind the scenes,
9:29 or rather, in the back room.
9:31 Washington's logic is as follows.
9:33 If Europe is to play a key role in
9:35 ensuring postwar security, terms cannot
9:37 be developed without its participation.
9:41 There is an idea for a third channel
9:42 directly between European countries and
9:44 Russia to reduce tension and prevent
9:48 Some European governments look at this
9:50 with distrust. They fear that such a
9:52 format will weaken NATO. Witkoff and
9:54 Kushner, for their part, hope to get
9:56 Moscow’s consent for European
9:57 participation in the next round. Behind
10:00 the words about the next round, it is
10:02 easy to miss the difference.
10:04 Today, the Europeans were invited to
10:06 talk separately from the Russian side,
10:08 but allowing them to the next meeting at
10:09 a common table is a proposal whose
10:14 Kyiv, meanwhile, places its emphasis
10:16 differently. The Ukrainian side has
10:18 three priorities: ending strikes on
10:20 energy infrastructure, a maritime truce
10:22 , and preparing a meeting between Trump
10:24 , Putin, and Zelensky.
10:27 Neither the Americans nor the Russian
10:28 delegation have yet confirmed that an
10:30 energy and maritime truce are on the
10:33 Both Moscow and Washington are now
10:35 primarily talking about security
10:37 guarantees. Lavrov stated that the
10:39 Russian side already has its own
10:41 proposal on what the new security
10:43 architecture in Eurasia should look like
10:46 , without infringing on anyone's
10:49 The day before, Ursula von der Leyen
10:51 said that the EU would resist such a
10:53 discussion until the parties sign a
10:55 ceasefire agreement.
10:58 And now the Europeans have arrived in
11:00 Abu Dhabi, where Moscow and Washington
11:01 intend to talk primarily about that very
11:03 security, the conversation about which
11:05 Brussels wanted to postpone.
11:06 Where is the logic?
11:09 The Economist, citing sources, describes
11:11 one of the options proposed by the Trump
11:13 team regarding the Donetsk and Luhansk
11:15 regions. The idea is just brilliant. The
11:18 idea boils down to changing the borders
11:20 of the regions themselves. Then Moscow
11:22 could announce it had taken them in full
11:24 , and Kyiv wouldn't have to cede
11:26 additional territories. A plan designed
11:29 for imbeciles. It turns out the
11:31 Americans are proposing to resolve the
11:33 dispute by how the line is drawn on the
11:35 This is the publication's version of the
11:37 proposal, not a finalized decision. The
11:39 same package mentions the lifting of
11:41 sanctions on the Russian energy sector.
11:43 Ukraine and the European Union are
11:44 already speaking out against this.
11:47 This brings to mind Trump's words that
11:48 after the war, Ukraine will take on a
11:50 somewhat different shape.
11:53 Reuters cites an assessment by a US
11:54 official who spoke with journalists
11:56 behind closed doors even before the
11:58 meeting in Abu Dhabi began.
12:00 According to him, one should not judge
12:02 the readiness of Moscow and Kyiv for
12:03 territorial compromises based solely on
12:07 In private conversations, both sides
12:09 show more flexibility, but even this
12:10 interlocutor does not expect the
12:12 territory's fate to be decided now.
12:15 He attributes such an agreement to the
12:17 finale, once it is clear what the
12:18 parties have agreed upon regarding other
12:21 points, including Europe's future
12:24 The official explains his cautious
12:25 optimism as follows.
12:27 For the first time, I had the feeling
12:29 that we are seeing a real desire on the
12:31 Russian side to end the war.
12:33 Secretary of State Marco Rubio outlined
12:35 another condition. According to him, the
12:37 West will only be able to offer Kyiv the
12:39 guarantees that Russia is willing to
12:42 And Moscow’s objections concern two very
12:44 specific options: Ukraine's accession to
12:46 NATO and the deployment of foreign
12:48 troops on Ukrainian territory.
12:50 Any future agreements must respect
12:52 sovereignty, territorial integrity, and
12:54 independence in decision-making, while
12:56 also providing reliable security
12:58 guarantees for Ukraine.
13:00 This is the wording of a joint statement
13:02 by the US, Ukraine, and European
13:04 partners, which was published by Steve
13:07 The sequence of events is important here
13:09 . The document appeared following their
13:11 own meeting in Abu Dhabi even before the
13:13 start of the three-way conversation with
13:15 the Russian delegation.
13:17 Zelensky is ready to meet with Putin at
13:19 the first opportunity in Florida in
13:21 December on the sidelines of the G20
13:23 summit or anywhere else in the world, if
13:25 necessary, even in Antarctica, anywhere
13:27 , but not in Moscow. That is how the
13:30 Ukrainian representative to the UN
13:31 described Zelensky’s position regarding
13:33 a personal meeting with Putin. Meanwhile
13:34 , the European Union has announced for
13:37 the first time its intention to
13:39 officially ensure its military presence
13:42 directly in Ukraine. Just how large it
13:44 might end up being is not specified. The
13:46 statement is linked to a revision of the
13:48 European Union’s training mission for
13:49 the Ukrainian military.
13:51 This mission was launched back in 2022.
13:53 Until now, Brussels had consistently
13:55 emphasized that training takes place in
13:57 Europe outside of Ukraine itself. This
13:59 is precisely where the change lies,
14:01 though there is no talk of specific
14:03 numbers yet. One should not expect
14:05 details from the Kremlin until the
14:06 negotiations conclude. Dmitry Peskov
14:08 reported that the Russian delegation
14:10 will decide when to report to the
14:12 president during the course of the
14:13 meeting itself. If necessary, they will
14:15 contact him online directly from Abu
14:17 Dhabi. Another option is to report on
14:19 the results in person after returning to
14:22 As for the seats directly in the room,
14:24 the European delegation was not among
14:25 the participants in the trilateral
14:28 The door was closed right in front of
14:30 them. Wait out there on the porch. At
14:32 the table are Russia, Ukraine, and the
14:34 US. And yet, just a couple of hours
14:36 earlier, the windbag, who also serves as
14:38 the French Foreign Minister, was saying
14:40 that representatives from France,
14:41 Germany, and the UK would be right in
14:43 the room. Basically, as it turns out,
14:45 arriving in Abu Dhabi does not mean
14:47 getting into the negotiations themselves
14:49 . Well, maybe they had some other
14:51 waiting room in mind. Some didn't make
14:53 Some were simply shut out, while others
14:55 were wise enough to be there even
14:57 without a formal invitation. Yes, the
14:59 Belarusians are currently present at the
15:01 negotiations. Have you heard anything
15:02 about this? And, by the way, they are
15:04 acting as mediators. Just look at this.
15:06 A Belarusian trio at the negotiations in
15:08 Abu Dhabi. Three key figures in the
15:10 American delegation have roots in
15:14 Siwa Witkow's grandmother, Rose, was
15:17 In 1905, she left for the United States
15:20 . Jared Kushner's grandmother, Raya,
15:22 fled the ghetto in Novogrudok during
15:24 World War II, joined a partisan unit,
15:26 and moved to America after the war.
15:29 Finally, General Alexus Grynkewich's
15:32 great-grandfather, Ilya Moyteska, left
15:35 Minsk for New York back in 1899. So
15:37 there you have it, Belarusian roots for
15:39 three members of the American delegation
15:41 at once. Belarusians are running the
15:42 show. Now let's return to Kyiv and the
15:45 question we started with.
15:47 Urban planner Viktor Hleba says the
15:49 Paton Bridge is already in a state of
15:51 disrepair and needs urgent reinforcement
15:54 In his estimation, damage to the piers
15:56 or the span structure is particularly
15:57 dangerous. In that case, the
15:59 consequences won't be limited to just a
16:01 closed lane. A serious collapse could
16:03 completely halt traffic across the
16:06 MP Kraydenko—deputy head of the Servant
16:08 of the People committee on transport and
16:10 infrastructure—speaks of a risk for the
16:13 If strikes on the crossings deprive
16:15 people of the ability to travel across
16:17 the Dnieper, Kyiv could effectively
16:19 split into two cities. Here is how he
16:22 describes this scenario himself. One
16:23 doesn't want to believe in such a
16:24 scenario. After all, our bridges still
16:26 have a margin of safety. The main issue
16:28 here is the organization of work.
16:30 If there is no effort from Kyiv’s
16:32 leadership and the ministry, then, in
16:35 principle, Kyiv could be split into two
16:37 parts by the Dnieper.
16:39 The Russian Ministry of Defense reported
16:41 overnight strikes on four substations in
16:43 three Ukrainian regions. In Volnogorsk,
16:45 Dnipropetrovsk region, according to the
16:47 department, a 330 kV substation was hit
16:50 . In Kremenchuk, Poltava region—a 154 kV
16:53 one. The ministry mentioned two more
16:55 objects, both 110 kV, in the Kyiv region
16:57 —one in Pereyaslav, the other in Ihoteni
17:00 In other words, there is no light in
17:03 many places. For some homes, today marks
17:06 the seventh day of the week without
17:10 The same report also mentions three
17:15 Northeast of the city, the department
17:16 claims, strikes hit a cargo ship with
17:18 weapons and military equipment, and a
17:20 tanker carrying fuel and lubricants for
17:22 the Ukrainian army.
17:24 The third vessel is reported separately
17:27 It is a cargo ship east of Odesa which,
17:28 according to the Russian Ministry of
17:30 Defense, was carrying dual-use cargo for
17:33 DTEK, for its part, reports damage to
17:36 vital energy equipment in the
17:38 Dnipropetrovsk region.
17:41 A significant part of Dnipro and
17:42 Kamianske has been left without
17:44 Furthermore, the outages have affected
17:46 critical infrastructure facilities in
17:48 the region. In some places, people are
17:50 also sitting without light or heat. AFU
17:52 officer Yaroslavsky believes that
17:54 without a ceasefire, major Ukrainian
17:56 cities risk being in conditions this
17:58 winter where people will no longer be
18:01 able to live normally.
18:03 Among the cities where he sees such a
18:05 risk if Russian strikes continue,
18:07 Yaroslavsky names Kyiv, Kharkiv, and
18:10 I honestly don't understand how people
18:11 in Kharkiv even live at all. We are in
18:13 the Belgorod region. The regional
18:14 operational headquarters reported the
18:16 deaths of three men. Two died in the
18:18 village of Zazuli, one in Gora
18:20 Podolskoye. Another man died in the
18:22 hospital. He had sustained a severe
18:24 injury in Shebekino on September 17.
18:27 The new report also mentions eight
18:28 injured, three of whom were hospitalized
18:32 Separately, two victims from the attacks
18:34 on November 7 and 8 sought medical help
18:39 In Belgorod itself, an infrastructure
18:40 facility was damaged, and in nine
18:42 districts, houses, vehicles,
18:43 outbuildings, and social and commercial
18:45 facilities were hit.
18:48 In Shebekino, four apartment buildings,
18:50 businesses, and 16 vehicles sustained
18:54 A bus burned down. In Chapayevsky, the
18:56 roof of a residential building was
18:57 destroyed. In Gora-Podol, the roof
18:58 caught fire, but the blaze was
18:59 extinguished. In Konoplyanovka, a power
19:02 line was damaged. Belgorod is just right
19:06 Currently, appeals from a young woman
19:08 from the Grayvoronsky district are
19:09 circulating online.
19:11 She says that civilians are dying every
19:13 day from Ukrainian FPV drones, sometimes
19:15 three people a day.
19:17 She is asking the authorities to pay
19:18 attention to what is happening and
19:20 somehow help the people, you know? She
19:22 says you can't go outside, and no one
19:24 drives cars anymore. They kill people on
19:26 bicycles for no reason at all. The
19:27 Ukrainian military is killing civilians
19:29 simply because they are walking down the
19:31 street. People are afraid to go outside
19:33 ; there is no life left. Actually, when
19:35 you hear things like this from ordinary
19:38 people who are suffering because some
19:41 deranged people are killing civilians,
19:44 you start thinking about that buffer
19:47 Perhaps it makes sense to talk about a
19:49 security zone about 200 km deep—that's
19:51 just a bit short of Poltava.
19:54 That is what I think. I understand that
19:57 200 km is a lot, but for the next 200 km
19:59 , we could clear everything out, leaving
20:01 flat fields so that not a single drone
20:04 operator could survive there by
20:05 definition. Yes. The report mentions 398
20:09 drones that attacked the Russian
20:13 Thirteen drops were recorded, with a
20:15 total of 31 explosive devices dropped on
20:17 the Belgorod region.
20:19 During eight shelling incidents, another
20:21 36 munitions were fired.
20:22 This summary counts the drones, the
20:24 devices dropped from them, and the
20:26 munitions fired during shelling.
20:29 Therefore, 13 drops and 31 devices is
20:31 not a contradiction. More than one
20:34 device could have been dropped in a
20:39 for the first time on the interception
20:41 of the newest American Rusty Dagger
20:44 Moreover, according to the agency, four
20:45 such missiles were shot down at once.
20:48 This is an air-to-ground munition. The
20:50 American company Zone 5 Technologies
20:53 developed it specifically for Ukraine
20:55 under the US Air Force's Extended Range
20:57 Attack Munition program, which started
21:00 in 2024. The stated range is about 930
21:03 km, with an estimated weight of the
21:05 munition itself at 225 kg. It can
21:08 reportedly be launched from ground
21:10 systems or fighter jets like the
21:12 American F-16 or Soviet MiG-29. The
21:14 first experimental batch was planned to
21:16 be delivered to Ukraine in October. Now
21:18 , the Russian ministry has mentioned
21:19 these missiles in an air defense report
21:21 for the first time.
21:23 Imagine, this is the very case where
21:25 Trump says they are not helping Ukraine
21:28 They are making missiles specifically
21:29 for them. They are not helping Ukraine;
21:31 do not believe anyone among the
21:33 Europeans or Americans. These words are
21:35 addressed to Russians, Ukrainians, and
21:37 Belarusians alike. Keep in mind, they
21:40 hate all of you. In the Sloviansk
21:42 direction, the DeepState project reports
21:45 a Russian military advance near
21:46 Oleksandrivka. Ukrainian military
21:48 personnel with the call sign" Muchnoy "
21:50 assess the situation for the UAF a bit
21:52 According to him, the Russian army has
21:54 the initiative here, and only the
21:56 northwestern outskirts of the settlement
21:58 remain under Ukrainian control.
22:00 And even that he describes as an
22:01 unstable gray zone. What does this mean
22:04 for neighboring positions? By this
22:06 assessment, Russian units can develop an
22:08 offensive toward Orekhovatka, relying on
22:10 the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas canal area.
22:12 Another pressure point is Mykolaivka.
22:15 From the south, there are reports of new
22:16 waves of Russian military infiltration.
22:19 The danger for the UAF is that they will
22:21 have to simultaneously hold what remains
22:23 near Oleksandrivka and counter the
22:25 advance south of Mykolaivka.
22:27 A bill has been submitted to the
22:29 Verkhovna Rada that Zelensky announced
22:30 following a Bihus.Info investigation
22:32 into potential law enforcement cover-ups
22:34 of organized crime.
22:35 It is proposed to reinstate the
22:37 obligation to file declarations for
22:39 those law enforcement officials who are
22:41 not directly involved in combat. Deputy
22:43 Goncharenko reminded that, under martial
22:45 law, a significant portion of law
22:46 enforcement officers currently enjoy a
22:49 If the bill is passed, what will matter
22:51 is not the agency's name, but an
22:53 individual's participation in
22:56 For those fighting, the deferment
22:57 remains, allowing 90 days after the end
23:00 of martial law, cessation of combat, or
23:02 discharge from service to file.
23:04 For others, including National Guard,
23:07 Border Guard, SBU, and other security
23:09 agency personnel, it is proposed to
23:11 restore the standard duty to declare
23:15 In Austria, Ukrainian pensioners are
23:17 being required to return part of the
23:18 social assistance they received.
23:20 According to the Kronen Zeitung, the
23:22 total amount in question is at least
23:26 This is the total demand amount for all
23:28 recipients, not a bill for one person.
23:29 The issue arose for those who, when
23:31 applying for basic refugee aid, did not
23:33 declare the pension they receive from
23:35 Ukraine. At the end of September, the
23:37 Lower Austrian Administrative Court
23:39 ruled that a Ukrainian pension also
23:42 The amount of aid one is entitled to
23:44 depends, accordingly, on its size. If it
23:46 was calculated without taking the
23:47 pension into account, authorities can
23:48 demand the overpayment back. Social
23:50 services urge people to report any
23:52 income from abroad on their own. For
23:54 those who have already received a demand
23:56 , they advise seeking legal assistance.
23:58 In some cases, payment installments are
23:59 possible, and if repaying the money
24:01 threatens a person with poverty, they
24:02 may even be exempted from payment. Yes,
24:04 news can be difficult, sometimes almost
24:06 impossible to work with. Look, two news
24:08 items on the same day. Sechenov
24:10 University calculated that the economy
24:13 lost nearly 1.5 trillion rubles in a
24:15 year due to Russians' drinking. I turn
24:17 the page and read in Kommersant that
24:19 alcohol distilleries are closing in
24:20 Russia because people are not drinking.
24:23 Over the year, 30 producers of strong
24:24 spirits have ceased operations. Small
24:26 companies producing vodka are in the
24:28 worst position. They have to either
24:30 close down or sell their business. Try
24:32 to keep everyone happy, then. If you
24:33 drink, the economy takes a hit; if you
24:36 don't drink, the vodka factory takes a
24:38 hit. In the Arkhangelsk region, a span
24:40 of the railway bridge over the Viled
24:41 River collapsed. Freight train cars
24:43 derailed; the train included tanker cars
24:45 , but they were empty. According to
24:47 local authorities, no oil products
24:49 leaked into the river.
24:51 In Karelia, fuel sales have been
24:53 restricted again at Rosneft gas stations
24:55 . The head of the republic, Artur
24:56 Parfenchikov, announced this on November
24:58 8. For those driving gasoline vehicles,
25:00 the limit depends on where you fill up.
25:02 In the city, 30 liters; on the highway,
25:04 50. Diesel is 50 liters, and up to 200
25:06 at high-speed pumps for trucks. Fuel is
25:08 temporarily not being dispensed into
25:11 According to Parfenchikov, the
25:12 restrictions are needed to avoid panic
25:14 and shortages, and to distribute fuel
25:16 supplies evenly across stations.
25:18 Now let's look at how Russians are using
25:20 the digital ruble. Izvestia studied data
25:22 from the Central Bank. In the first two
25:24 months of mass rollout, with a
25:26 population of 146 million, about 300,000
25:28 wallets were opened. The digital ruble
25:30 is absolutely useless to anyone.
25:32 Transactions across all those wallets
25:34 combined turned out to be even lower—
25:37 235,000. This means there isn't even one
25:39 transaction on average per opened wallet
25:42 Even if every one of those transactions
25:44 had been on a separate wallet, at least
25:45 65,000 wallets would have remained
25:47 completely inactive.
25:49 And yet, some people might have used
25:50 theirs twice or even three times. People
25:52 were offered the chance to open them,
25:53 but no one ever explained why they
25:55 should actually use them. As noted by
25:56 the experts interviewed, the digital
25:59 ruble offers no cashback, no interest on
26:01 balances, and none of the usual perks.
26:03 The State Duma supported a bill in the
26:06 first reading on fines for discrediting
26:08 traditional values. The fine amount
26:10 could reach 700,000 rubles. It is still
26:13 just a draft, but the list of values
26:15 itself is already fixed in Decree 809.
26:18 It lists human dignity, rights and
26:20 freedoms, patriotism, civic duty,
26:22 service to the Fatherland, and
26:23 responsibility for its future. Next are
26:26 high moral ideals, a strong family,
26:27 creative labor, and the priority of the
26:30 spiritual over the material. And also
26:32 humanism, mercy, justice, collectivism,
26:34 mutual aid and mutual respect,
26:35 historical memory, continuity of
26:37 generations, and the unity of the
26:41 I’m only interested in one thing—will
26:42 officials who steal billions also be
26:44 fined under the clause about the
26:46 priority of the spiritual over the
26:49 Russian architect Kirill shared how a
26:51 seemingly ordinary job offer turned into
26:53 two years trapped in a fraudulent call
26:56 center in Myanmar. In Phuket, he met a
26:58 woman who offered the architect a design
27:00 job for her parents 'house. Instead of
27:02 working in his field, he was taken to
27:04 another country, and his passport, phone
27:05 , and laptop were confiscated. According
27:07 to Kirill, at night, he was forced to
27:09 record voice messages used by scammers
27:11 to steal cryptocurrency from residents
27:13 of the U.S. and Mexico.
27:15 After escaping the call center, he
27:16 traveled through the jungle and reached
27:18 the city of Myawaddy. Only then was he
27:20 able to contact the embassy and the
27:21 Russian Interior Ministry. Kirill was
27:22 officially recognized as a victim of
27:23 human trafficking. His flight home is
27:25 scheduled for November 12. According to
27:27 the Russian Ambassador to Thailand,
27:29 Evgeny Tomikhin, 11 Russians have been
27:31 brought back this way since the
27:32 beginning of 2025. At a Moscow school, a
27:34 teacher demanded that a student bring a
27:36 document from a migration center proving
27:38 her right to stay in Russia. The reason
27:40 ? The girl had moved from Bashkiria. The
27:43 mother tried to explain to this fool
27:45 that the Republic of Bashkortostan is
27:46 part of Russia and the child did not
27:48 cross any state borders. They didn't
27:50 believe the explanation, so the mother
27:52 and daughter went to the police. To
27:53 complete the picture, all that’s left to
27:55 know is that this idiot teacher teaches
27:57 geography. Moving on to sports.
27:59 Mira Andreeva kicked off the WTA Finals
28:02 with a victory over Elina Svitolina of
28:05 For the nineteen-year-old Russian, this
28:07 is her first singles appearance at the
28:09 tournament, which gathers the eight best
28:11 female players of the season.
28:13 Since Coco Gauff, who competed in 2023,
28:15 there hasn't been a single tennis player
28:18 under 20 in this lineup until Mira.
28:20 Andreeva will play her next match
28:22 against Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus.
28:24 Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka
28:25 apologized for his remarks about Russian
28:27 female hockey players.
28:29 Earlier, on CNN Prima News, he called
28:31 them masculine and stated that the
28:32 tournament wouldn't lose anything by
28:37 A sad story for pet owners. The
28:40 manufacturer of the MultiCan vaccine,
28:42 Vetbiochim, has confirmed the death of
28:44 128 dogs due to the drug. In August,
28:46 when reports of animal deaths emerged in
28:48 the Yaroslavl region, the company
28:49 recalled several batches of the vaccine
28:51 . Then, in September, Rosselkhoznadzor
28:53 detected a live Aujeszky's disease virus
28:56 in samples of MultiCan 8, batch twenty.
28:58 The agency ordered the seizure and
29:00 destruction of that specific batch.
29:02 After that, Vetbiochim stopped
29:03 production of all batches, although it
29:05 claimed it didn't find the virus in its
29:07 own sample archives. I have only one
29:09 question. Remind me, who answered for
29:11 the death of 128 dogs? Are they not
29:14 family members? Did some monster
29:15 actually go to jail, or is this just
29:16 different? They don't put people in
29:18 prison for this; they do nothing at all
29:19 . Explain it to me, I just don't know, I
29:20 don't remember. And one more topic.
29:23 A warning from the American regulator,
29:25 the FDA, about a GLP-1 drug used for
29:27 diabetes and weight loss.
29:30 The agency has demanded that
29:32 instructions for the drugs—specifically
29:33 Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound
29:35 —be updated with information about a
29:36 potential risk of vision loss.
29:39 We are talking about a rare optic nerve
29:41 condition known as an eye stroke. Vision
29:43 in one eye can worsen without pain, and
29:46 the loss may be irreversible. What is
29:49 this warning based on?
29:51 The FDA analyzed 126 clinical studies
29:53 involving over 134,000 people and
29:55 identified 15 probable cases.
29:58 The European regulator also previously
30:00 characterized this side effect as very
30:02 rare and recommended updating
30:03 information for drugs containing
30:06 In the end, losing weight for beauty
30:08 only to risk your sight so you can't see
