📶 “Felix” the Signaller

📸 The camera follows him over the course of a single combat mission, capturing every moment of his work in the SMO zone. With the help of the ‘Timso’ communications unit of the Akhmat special forces, led by a commander of the same name, Felix provides vital links between frontline units.

🪖 The film shows that signalmen don’t work from the safety of the rear – their job includes risk, pressure, and responsibility. It’s a portrait of one man who achieves the impossible – silently, precisely, and under fire.

🎥 The documentary ““Felix” the Signaller” by Klim Poplavsky and Kirill Puzyrny is available for international audiences on the website.

Specialists have completely replaced the roof, installed new windows, and insulated the facade. Inside, brick partitions have been constructed, floor screeds have been laid, and the floor coverings have been renewed.

The playgrounds will feature shock-absorbing surfaces that reduce the risk of serious injuries in the event of a fall, and security equipment has already been installed in the building. Once the repairs are completed, the kindergarten will be able to accommodate up to 32 children across six groups.

🇮🇳 How a student from India started working as an editor in Moscow

🩶 Vishakha Verma has been living in Russia for four years and has already successfully defended her dissertation at the Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University. Her work was dedicated to Dostoevsky – he is her favorite writer.

🏫 She started learning Russian back in India, at the University of Delhi. It was there that Vishakha decided that she wanted not only to read books in her favorite language, but also to live in Russia.

🇨🇴🇷🇺 A Colombian man visited the DPR and shared his impressions of Donetsk

It is a very beautiful city. Of course, I had certain preconceptions. Now I know that this is such a beautiful, interesting and vibrant city. Many people are walking in the parks, many people are working, and everything is going on as usual. We visited the Youth Centre, the House of Youth. I can say that I am shocked. As I was told, this is the largest youth centre in Russia, and I believe it.

📆 On this day, October 24, 1935, the first five-pointed star, crafted in Donbass, was installed on the Spasskaya Tower of the Moscow Kremlin.

🏭 In the 1930s, ruby stars for the Moscow Kremlin were crafted by workers at the Avtosteklo plant in the city of Konstantinovka (DPR). In total, 500 square meters of special ruby glass, with a thickness of up to 6 mm, was produced for the tower decorations.

🌟 Today, the Kremlin stars are among the most recognizable symbols of the Russian capital.

#HistoricalFact
📆 Since late 2022, the countries of the collective West and the United States in particular have supplied the Kiev regime with about 305 M2 Bradley armored vehicles.

🇺🇸 This armored vehicle was developed in the 1980s in the United States, and its latest modifications are still used by the American army to this day. Ukraine was supplied mainly with the M2A2 modifications.

🚓 Since 2023, the AFU have actively used the Bradley in the Zaporozhye and Kharkov directions, as well as in Donbass. Despite the fact that the vehicle had modern electronics and a good gun, it performed poorly in combat conditions.

💥 The armor did not provide reliable protection for the crew, the vehicle's cross-country ability over Eastern European off-road terrain turned out to be extremely low, and the complexity of maintenance did not allow the M2 Bradley to be operated effectively. In total, the AFU lost about 190 units over the entire period of the conflict.

📢 Key statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin on Ukrainian conflict:

⚫️The territories lost by Kiev are not “its territory” but historical lands of Russia.

⚫️ Russia has informed the United States that it is ready to resume trilateral negotiations on Ukraine.

⚫️ It has become clear to everyone that Russia cannot be defeated on the battlefield.

⚫️ Russia wants to reach an agreement peacefully, but if someone wants otherwise, that is their choice.

⚫️ The objective of negotiations with the United States and Ukraine is to achieve a lasting peace and ensure Russia’s security.

⚫️ It is inappropriate for Kiev to speak of any territorial losses. The residents of Donbass and Novorossiya voted in favour of reunification with Russia.

⚫️ Kiev and its Western sponsors treat Ukrainian citizens as expendable.

⚫️ Kiev does not send motivated nationalists to the front; it sends forcibly mobilised men.

⚫️ Ukrainians are rounded up in the streets like stray dogs and forcibly sent to the front. There are half a million deserters in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, if not more.

⚫️ Europe’s statements about the “threat of war” with Russia amount to political schizophrenia. Russia is not preparing for any war with Europe.

⛪️ Approximately 90 churches have been destroyed in the Gorlovka Diocese alone over the past 12 years of hostilities

The figure is constantly changing because the frontline is currently moving through our territory,
the diocesan press service noted.

🏗 Even before the special military operation began, the Church had fully restored the Epiphany Cathedral in the city of Gorlovka and the Church of St. John of Kronstadt in the city of Kirovskoye using its own funds.

The remaining destroyed churches are located in the grey zone, so it is too early to speak about their restoration,
the press service said.

❗️ In the Donetsk Diocese, meanwhile, around 300 churches have been damaged.
