Emergency government for the duration of the military actions. Among the most important tasks is the release of civilians taken hostage. The head of our middle east news bureau, sergei pashkov, will tell you more about the situation in israel. Gaza militants captured many israelis, apparently, we are talking about dozens of people, these are parents with children, children, teenagers, and. Gaza young people at a music festival, these are military personnel, in total hamas reported that they managed to take 53 israelis hostage and bring them to the territory of the gaza strip, and more several dozen israelis remain under the control of militants as hostages, directly in those settlements near the gaza strip where fighting is currently taking place. The Israeli Defense forces are operating, and special forces have arrived there. In total, it is known that the collision occurs at twentyone points of contact. Some settlements in the israeli south are still controlled by militants, in the village of biere alone, now about 50 people are held hostage in the kibbutz canteen, at least such reports are coming. There is also a message that the israeli authorities are unofficially negotiating through intermediaries with hamas about the future fate of the hostages, about a possible exchange and related further military actions, and now israel is again experiencing massive raids on the central cities of the country, these raids first took place at 7 30 in the morning, when tel aviv also came under fire, now tel aviv came under fire twice with volleys of kasam missiles, the iron dome systems were shot down by the israeli Missile Defense over the city, but there was one aviva fiorentine hit in the city hit in the israeli Southern District of tel batyam adjacent to tel aviv to the central city of reshon lyceon, a total of eight people were wounded during the last raid, three of them are in serious condition, and in general there are 150 people in israeli hospitals in critical and serious condition, so martyroly unfortunately, it will expand, we have already said that in israel there are about 150 dead and more than a thousand wounded since saturday, by the way, in gas the losses among the military and civilian population are close, there are 200 dead and about 2,000 wounded, in any case case, the ministry of health of the palestinian enclave reports, fighting, fierce fighting in the south continues, shelling continues, against this background , israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu said that now we are no longer talking about some kind of special operation in the gaza strip, but we are talking about since this morning the state of israel has been in a state of war. Our first goal is primarily to clear the areas that have been attacked from enemy forces and restore security. The second goal is to collect from the enemy a huge price, including in the gas sector. The third goal is to strengthen other territories so that no one makes the mistake of joining this war. Yes, this is a war, but we must remain calm. I call on all israelis to unite and achieve our main goal. Victory. In this war. Martial law has been introduced in israel, the eightykilometer zone around gaza has been declared closed. The countrys Security Council decided to launch a ground operation on the territory of the palestinian enclave, apparently this should be approved in the near future cabinet of ministers of israel, and if so, then the war will enter a new phase, it is quite possible that the Shiite Group Hezbollah , located in lebanon, may enter into. In any case, this kind of statement that if a ground operation begins, hezbollah will not remain aside, they have already been voiced today, then the military confrontation will come to a new level, sergei pashkov, to lead israel. Well, the number of deaths in all three gases at this hour is 232 inhabitants. Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas at an emergency meeting once again emphasized the right of his people to selfdefense. Mirana expressed support for the palestinian residents. Meanwhile, the hamas Group Continues to fire rockets at israel from the territory of the agricultural sector. And he actively publishes videos of the morning invasion on social networks, including the dropping of explosives from drones. To israeli strongholds. Stanislav bernwalt will talk about how the situation in palestine is heating up. At 6 30 moscow time, israeli media wrote that sirens warning of rocket attacks sounded in tel avoviv, it was reported that dozens of rockets were fired from the gaza strip to side of israel. Israel is always prepared for such shelling; the iron dome air Defense System usually intercepts a larger number of incoming missiles. But this time the blow was more massive than ever. Palestinian rockets were flying into central and southern israel. After some time , information appeared about the penetration of armed hamas forces into israeli territory. They were spotted in the city of sderot. This footage shows a bulldozer carrying hamas activists destroying the fence between the gaza strip and israel, a fullfledged breakthrough from all directions. Hamas propaganda videos about the success of the invasion immediately appear online. The saboteurs landed on boats, bypassing barriers by sea, and also entered israeli territory by air on hang gliders; now hamas members are walking along the streets of the cities of sderot and ashkilon, shooting military and civilians. These large cities are under the actual combat control of the militants. Hamas places special emphasis on the video of the destruction of the israeli merkava mk4 tank. Judging by this video, a tank was hit by a drone dropping an antitank shell. Merkova is considered. An active Defense System that makes the vehicle supposedly virtually invulnerable, but this footage suggests that hamas managed to destroy at least one such tank. All this happened on the border of israel, the gaza strip, after an israeli tank was hit, hamas captured the crew of the damaged merkava. Palestinian assault troops take fire control of a military base near borders. At least 22 people were reported killed as a result of the clashes. There are more than 200 wounded and this is only official data; according to unofficial information, there are tens of times more dead and wounded. Meanwhile, hamas is bringing more and more of its fighters into the captured area. They seize israeli equipment with almost bare hands, they drag soldiers out of the vehicle and knock them down. The footage shows hamas using a drone to attack a military ambulance, injuring israeli army personnel. Supporters of the radical Palestinian GroupIslamic Jihad say they have several in captivity. Dozens of israeli soldiers. According to the information coming in at this moment, the palestinians managed to capture at least five merkov tanks, several armored personnel carriers and a heavy armored personnel carrier. Palestinians are firing from igla manpads at israeli aircraft, which are currently attacking gaza. The situation is heating up hour by hour, and apparently, according to experts, the israeli army is not yet completely in control of the situation in the border areas south of the country. But in the gaza strip, crowds of palestinians, as they say the beginning of a great victory. Stanislav bernwald, news. The aggravation of the palestinianisraeli conflict was discussed by the heads of the russian and egyptian foreign ministries today, Sergei Lavrov and samih shukri. They declared the need for an immediate ceasefire and expressed deep concern over the numerous casualties, including among civilians. Sergei lavrov recalled the recent russian proposals to intensify efforts for the palestinianisraeli political. The un Security Council will meet on sunday evening for an emergency meeting in connection with the escalation of the palestinianisraeli conflict, this was announced by the first deputy permanent representative of russia to this organization, dmitry polyansky. The command of the Un Interim Force in lebanon has stepped up patrols of the border with israel, given the threats of the local Hezbollah Group to open a second front to help hamas. Meanwhile , washington expressed full support. The pentagon promised to send everything needed to defend the territory in the coming days countries. Ekaterina shamaeva will tell you how different states responded to the escalation in the middle east. European countries, in the context of a new aggravation in the middle east, took an unambiguously proisraeli position; eu leaders decided to speak out exclusively on social networks, and using the same phrases. Terrible news is coming from israel, we are deeply shocked. Germany condemns these hamas attacks and supports israel. The uk unequivocally condemns hamas horrific attacks on civilians. About the main ally of the jewish state, the united states, declared strong support for israel at the level of the national Security Council of the defense department. The pentagon intends to provide israel with everything necessary for selfdefense. The head of the white house discussed the situation by telephone with Benjamin Netanyahu. There is no excuse for terrorism. Israel has every right to defend itself and its people. The us is ready to oppose any side. Towards the jewish state, my administration expresses its strong and unwavering support for the security of israel. Supported the actions hamas is israels main enemy in the iran region. The adviser to the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic promised that tehran will stand with palestine until its complete liberation. The Saudi Arabian foreign ministry, calling on both sides to put an end to the escalation, recalled riyadh has repeatedly drawn attention to provocations against Sacred Places for the palestinians and warned that this is fraught with an aggravation of the situation. New york times notes escalation could derail biden administrations normalization efforts relations between saudi arabia and israel. Riyadhs position is shared by qatar. The ministry of Foreign Affairs holds israel responsible for the current escalation due to ongoing violations of the rights of the palestinian people, most recently the repeated attacks on the blessed alyasa mosque under the control of the israeli police. Resist attempts to disrupt history. And the religious status of the mosque was promised by the turkish president , while Recep Tayyip Erdogan called for deescalation. In light of the events taking place in israel, we call on all parties to exercise restraint and avoid actions that could escalate tensions. Traditionally , egypt took the mediation initiative. According to local media reports, cairo is conducting intensive negotiations with the conflicting parties and calling on them to exercise maximum restraint. The United Nations also maintains contacts with them. The un special coordinator for the middle east Peace Process strongly condemned the attacks by hamas, including addressing international organizations, the british newspaper times asks a rhetorical question why no one foresaw such a development of events. Ekaterina shamaeva, lead. Beautiful decorated platforms, halfnaked women in feathers walk along the sambodrome, a russian will not behave like that. Brazil does not yet know how to show the world our culture, my acquaintance in brazil, this is natural, slaves. Was my First Television role and i became very famous not only in brazil but in the world. This is favella, i grew up in a favela, it is an integral part of my life. I agree with those who say that brazil is this is green russia, and russia is northern brazil. In this small quarter, several eras of the history of bangladesh coexist, opposite the mansion that was built for the englishman who served as governor here, local residents huddle in a tiny hut, next to a hindu temple of the 17th century, which was badly damaged during the years when bengal was part of pakistan, in the neighboring school building, where children have yet to learn the history of the development of their country, which has now entered a new era, the era of the peaceful atom . One of the most populous countries in the world there is a key problem lack of electricity. Thermal power plants operate inefficiently, with huge losses on the lines. Power outages are a common occurrence. This school has electricity, but like throughout the country, it can, of course, be turned off at any time and in general they try to save electricity. Now it only burns. One light bulb, and therefore children try to sit closer to the window during classes. The situation will be radically changed by the construction of a Nuclear Power plant for the first time in the country. Aisrupur is two power units with vvr 1200 reactors, which will provide bangladesh with a stable source of clean energy. As soon as fresh nuclear fuel was delivered here, the status of the republics largest construction site changed. Now it is a nuclear facility. By land, by air again by land, how the nuclear fuel produced in novosibirsk was delivered to bangladesh can be compared to a special operation. The roads along which trucks carrying valuable cargo were traveling were blocked by the police and army. The route of transportation was kept in the strictest confidence with russian tricolors and greenred flags of the republic, at the site of the rupur npp, cars met by hundreds of people. And the president of russia and we are creating a new industry together via video link, Vladimir Putin emphasized. Rusatom is building two power units at once on generation 3 reactors with a total capacity, colleagues have already talked about this 2,400 mw in order to physically launch the first unit as early as next 2024, the second in 2025. After reaching full design capacity, the station will be able to provide about 10 of bangladeshs energy consumption, 10 is a large amount, satisfying the energy needs of the growing bangladeshi economy, and thereby reducing the countrys dependence on coal and gas generation, which will allow optimization and, of course, the new npp will not emit dioxide into the atmosphere carbon, which will have a beneficial effect on the environment, on human health, on the health of the nation, from this day on bangladesh is officially included in the list of the Prestigious Club of states that have technologies for peaceful atom, this is the first stage of not construction, strictly speaking, operation of the station. From the moment the fissile material arrives at the site, the facility is under the magat guarantee. That is, on the big map of the world, it no longer burns with a yellow light, like a Nuclear Power plant under construction, but becomes a green object for the use of Atomic Energy ; it is fully extended, both the nonproliferation guarantees for which magath is responsible, and all the supervisory functions that the World Nuclear agency carries out. The very fact of the transfer of nuclear fuel indicates that a lot of work has been done to ensure safety at the Nuclear PowerPlant Construction site. That is, as of today, the Storage Facility is under army protection. The Storage Facility employs trained operating personnel. The army is also trained in the operation of physical protection and the entire infrastructure allows these personnel to perform their jobs. The station will run on the most modern and efficient nuclear fuel; it was developed specifically for power units with vvr1200 reactors; one load is 163 fuel assemblies. In during operation, part of the fuel Assembly Burns out, that is, it exhausts its service life and is replaced with fresh fuel. For a whole year of operation of a large Nuclear Power unit, only a few tens of tons of lowenriched uranium are required. For comparison, a coal plant would produce the same amount of energy. Will burn five trainloads of fuel. Currently, nuclear fuel is reloaded once every 12 months, but the scientific achievements of Russian Nuclear scientists will make it possible in the near future to increase the fuel cycle by one and a half times times up to 18 months, which means economic efficiency will increase. And now at the site they are preparing for a very important operation; transport packaging kits, which contain fuel assemblies inside, will be transferred to the fresh Nuclear Fuel Storage building. Russia has already trained more than a thousand bengalis who will work for aisrupur. And our specialists will help colleagues throughout the entire life cycle of the Nuclear Power plant. I wanted to be. Russian federation, magat, everyone involved in the project, sincere gratitude to all of you, and i would especially like to express my gratitude personally to the dear mr. President of russia Vladimir Putin. Thank you very much, and also many thanks to the Prime Minister of india , narendra modi, for his support in the implementation of this project. And although in the years that have passed since the start of construction, the situation in the world has changed a lot, and russia has faced unprecedented pressure in the economy. In the field of technology, moscow and dhaka are confidently moving towards ensuring that the creation of Nuclear Power plants proceeds on time. The future Nuclear Power plant is getting closer every day to the appearance that was intended by the designers. For 10 years, the tallest building in bangladesh was the dhaka city center, an administrative building in the capital of the country with 37 floors and 171 m. But now the tallest buildings in the entire republic are the cooling towers of the rupur Nuclear Power plant. There are four of them here and their height is 175 m. The cooling towers have almost acquired the desired color, there is very little left to paint, despite the fact that the total area of work is 374,000 m2, this is 52 football fields, so much concrete was poured at the base of the cooling towers that enough for 15 olympic swimming pools. Below there are 37,000 cubic meters only in piles, plus then there is another 4 m in full. Over the entire area there is concrete preparation and after that there is only the foundation slab itself, which we can observe. The first power unit is also getting closer to its final appearance. The protective shell, which can withstand an earthquake and an airplane crash, is sheathed with colored panels. Inside , the building is being prepared to begin working with nuclear fuel. The reactor vessel was installed exactly a year ago, all this time the installation of a very complex hightech equipment. For example, this year we completed welding of the main circulation pipeline and are now moving on to work of a completely different nature; all this heavy equipment, which weighs tens and sometimes hundreds of tons, needs to be configured. But before the Nuclear Reactor is loaded with real fuel, the algorithm of actions will be worked out on its simulators for several weeks. A product, an element, yes, which exactly replicates the fuel assembly, but only does not have the fuel itself, yes, that is, in order to break it in like this lets say thats it. Carry out all the procedures, we re using a fuel simulator and now the reactor plant is being prepared for this. Readiness is high, they are talking about another important facility the turbine room. All conditions have been created to continue the installation of turbine elements and other process equipment. Here the generation of Electrical Energy occurs, which then goes to stepup transformers and goes to the consumer, that is. Reactor buildings and turbines, the island is truly the heart of the Nuclear Power plant, these are the objects that are on the critical path, and are very technically complex and unique. Asia has been the focus of attention of Russian Nuclear scientists for many years, because the prospects for Energy Development in this region are enormous; rosatom is ready for technological cooperation with any country that understands the importance of energy sovereignty. Our interest is not limited only to asia, of course, this is africa, this is the middle east, this is latin america, of course, first of all our neighbors, partners in the eurasian union, commonwealth of independent states, and everywhere a combination of pragmatism, the choice of Nuclear Energy and rosatom as a partner for the implementation of projects, everywhere this pragmatism coexists very harmoniously with such emotional uplift associated with new knowledge, with new competencies, with the training of thousands of specialists, well, as they say under leadership of both the government and the president , we are implementing projects, it is clear that they need support, at least political, organizational, financial, and bangladesh is one of the brightest examples where you can see, you can just see it , you can feel it, that the nation. This project is supported by all the people, this project is needed. At the peak of construction , 30,000 people worked on the site, most of them, of course, bengalis. The rupur project has become an incentive for thousands of people to radically change their lives. Sakharul is a ruden graduate, monay is a mir graduate, both from the first generation of bengali nuclear scientists. They went to moscow, understanding that when they returned home, they would not only be in demand specialists, they would help bangladesh, this electric, so there are a lot of people, and this is an electric power plant, its small, well, some people. If when there is a Nuclear Power plant, well, it opens, then there will be a lot more; its electric; we get it all the time; ill be on electrics; it wont be a problem at all ; sister sakharula will come after her brother ; she went to study in russia ; in place. Returning to bangladesh, she also found a job at hand. Mnm at the site are responsible for labor protection. A native of the capital. He is sincere im glad that thousands of fellow countrymen now have prospects that were out of the question just 10 years ago. From another region, they came to work here, and we also have many people who worked for different countries, they also came here to work and to develop the country, and we see that their professionalism is very high, now previously, one of the most famous symbols is traditional. The bengal boat, it emphasizes the countrys connection with agriculture, on the day when the republic joined the club of countries with peaceful atoms, russia made a symbolic gift to its partners, on board this bengal boat is a model of a russian made fuel assembly, an acknowledgment that from now on the republic of bangladesh has entered a new atomic era. We will take on this case, it will be an honest detective story. Hello, this is a question of science, i am alexey semikhatov. Since primitive times, humanity has been peering into space and thinking about how it works. We now know quite a lot about the variety of phenomena that can be encountered in space, from perhaps exoplanets suitable for life, to superpowerful quasars, we have an idea of how all this. Arose during the evolution of the universe, for the last about a year and a half, almost every day we receive new, previously inaccessible data about the structure of the cosmos from james web space telescope. Which of our ideas about the structure and functioning and evolution of the universe are confirmed by these new data, and which perhaps should be revised. My guest today is a candidate physicsmathematical sciences
