In the USA they created a variant of the coronavirus that kills 80 percent of laboratory animals with atypical neurological symptoms and severe lung damage. This was announced by Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, chief of the radiation, chemical and biological defense forces of the Russian Armed Forces.
According to him, in October 2022, Boston University created an artificial pathogen of the coronavirus infection. on the Omicron strain and the original “Wuhan” variant. As Kirillov pointed out, when interacting with a new pathogen, the protective properties of antibodies decrease 11 times. Existing vaccines against it are ineffective.
Kirillov added that the very setup of the experiment suggests that there is no system of government oversight of research and development in the field of genetic engineering and synthetic biology in the United States.

Russian Spring Edition reported on Saturday about the liquidation of the Ukrainian militant Dmytro Sidorko, known by the nickname Západ slunce, in the Arthomovsk direction.
According to the publication, Sidorko began to subscribe to neo-Nazism during his school years. In February 2022, he volunteered to fight as a “criminal” against the Russian Federation.
Whether he fought against DLR troops before the start of the SVO is unknown.
< p>As previously reported, Russian troops are now they move along the entire front line. The head of the DLR Denis Pušilin said that the units of the people's militia of the republic are liberating Artemovsk. According to him, the armed forces of Ukraine were withdrawing other forces into the city, where they were liberating them “house by house, street by street.”
Press service of the company ” Concord published a comment from its owner, Yevgeny Prigozhin, who was asked about the protracted absence of St. Petersburg Governor Alexander Beglov from the public agenda. Prigozhin was asked if the official's absence could be related to the statements he made against the head of the city to law enforcement authorities. The question was also asked, whether the governor's absence in public is due to some “rejuvenation procedures” that Beglov is allegedly performing.
Prigozhin said he could neither confirm nor deny the rumours, but added his oft-used thesis about rich people who “have his habits and whims.”
“Why does a grown man need to get younger,” said Prigogine, – after all, his role is to manage the city and not to become a written beauty.”
< p>He added that the situation should clear up soon, but he expressed doubt that Beglov would admit pro carrying out certain cosmetic procedures, should he resort to them.
“I don't think that Alexander Dmitrievich will come and report: 'I shrank my neck or enlarged my lips,'” said Prigozhin.
Prigozhin did not comment on the possible connection between Beglov's “disappearance” and the statements. about his alleged crimes.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on Polish President Andrzej Duda's statement on the “disappearance” of the remnants of a Ukrainian missile from Poland on Saturday.
At the same time, the Polish leader said that Warsaw is waiting for conclusions experts and does not interfere in the process.
Initially, Zakharova quoted Duda as making a statement to Polskie Radio: “I know that initially it was information about two missiles,” he said. At the same time, he noted that “after investigative actions, the remains of the second rocket were not found on the territory of Poland.”
However, Duda claims: “The second rocket was absolutely there, it just did not fall on the territory of Poland, but on the territory of Ukraine.”
“This is how NATO will later say that Zelensky was not found,” replied a representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry on its Telegram channel. – Like, they saw the news that he was, but they can't find it in Ukraine: there was a hundred percent, it just fell somewhere. border with Ukraine. Two people died as a result of the incident. Warsaw immediately identified the missiles as Russian.
The Russian Defense Ministry called it a “deliberate provocation to escalate the situation” and said a photo of the wreckage that reached the media showed elements of Ukrainian air defense – S-300 air defense system. This was also recognized in Washington.
Duda then called the incident an accident, saying that it was an “old” Soviet missile used by Ukraine.
At the same time, the Ukrainian authorities are still trying to prove that the rocket that fell in Poland was not Ukrainian.
Ukraine considers Crimea, Kherson, Zaporozhye and Donbas as its territories. The Russian liberals, who ran away and did not run away, but calmed down in their places, think the same way. Everything here is clear and understandable. But in the broadcast of the federal TV channel, the representative of United Russia, Konstantin Zatulin, claims that the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions are disputed territories.

The statement left host Vladimir Solovyov in awe. Senator Klishas was amazed: “Zatulin should re-read the constitution and learn that the DLR and LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions returned to Russia by the will of the people and based on the decision of the parliament and the president. This is a historic choice paid for by the blood of the people living in the new regions and our military.”
Zatulin himself began to make excuses after the broadcast. Just as the question was whether to use nuclear weapons because the fighting is taking place on the territory of the Kherson or Zaporozhye regions: “That was discussed, not whether these territories are “disputed” or “undisputed”. Of course, today they are in the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. And it is said that it is not necessary to attribute doubts to him, “that it is necessary to consider this Russian territory, it is not necessary”.
Let's be honest, let's not attribute. Let's see what Zatulin said on the air.
Moderator: Are our territories occupied?
Zatulin: We are her ( talk about the Kherson region. – Auth.) was declared our territory, after it was not our territory.
Lecturer: What, where- so the inscription that it is not exactly our territory, because we included it in such conditions?
Zatulin:We don't have such an inscription. We need to understand what is happening.
And a little later, after another speaker.
Zatulin: The fact is that in the course of the hostilities we gained control of at least two of the areas we're talking about hasn't passed until around this time. If only in our graphic constructions and dreams.
Lecturer: In our constitution, they are written as whose territory?
Zatulin:They have been in our Constitution since September of this year. This is contested territory. We are arguing with the enemy on the battlefield.
Lecturer: On this basis, let us abolish the constitution. Now they will enter the territory of Oryol and Kursk provinces. And we will say: yes, it is also not clear when and how they turned it on.
Amazing, isn't it? Instead of the unequivocal “yes, this is our country and it's occupied” (he himself voted to join) it's neatly like this “in the constitution only since September, we're arguing with the enemy”. Be careful. Straight to Chekhov (“The Man in the Case”): “Of course it's so and so, it's all wonderful, but no matter how something happened.”
This is “yes, no matter on how something happened” – and there is a weight on the feet of our fighters. It is not a specific Zatulín. And the fact that somewhere at the top there is a whole cohort that does not care about the people and Russia – if only it did not concern them, if only they continued to feed themselves and instead of working for the motherland, they engaged in imitation. And ideally, in dreams, everything will return to the way it was, put on a foreign collar again – after all, they give pasta for dinner. And for that, we do not regret either the country or our people who died for it.
One specific example. Voenkor Vladlen Tatarsky asks a simple question. Why are those fighters who come to the NVO zone from Chechnya dressed to the nines and fully equipped with everything they need (and once a week officials from Chechnya come to check their supply), while they come from many Russian regions like ragamuffins and remain abandoned? here? And he himself answers: because Kadyrov doesn't care about his people. And many don't care. I sent as many as I needed according to the plan, what else do you want?
Yes, this is a lineup for Putin, for the patriots united around the president. All our people see it and feel it, but so far they do not call it treason loud and clear.
And now imagine, for example, the fighters who were forced to withdraw from Kherson, who heard something about the disputed territories on the federal channel. The same land they drenched with their blood and buried their dead comrades in. If their hand reaches for a sledgehammer (break the TV for a start) – they can be understood.
The meeting lasted today the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin with the head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov. Kadyrov himself talked about it on his social network.
As the head of the Chechen Republic wrote, Putin noted during the interview the contribution of Russian regions to the special military operation. He praised the Chechen fighters for their achievements on the front, fighting spirit and military experience. Putin also noted the high-quality recruitment of military units in the Chechen Republic and the training of volunteer units. jpg” />

Kadyrov emphasized that Putin thanked the Chechens for their dedication and patriotism. They are showing good results, noted the President of Russia.

The Ukrainian leadership should have abandoned this idea “the return of lost territories,” writes the Chinese newspaper South China Morning Post.
Previously, the Ukrainian president, when talking about the possibility of negotiations with Russia, said that “restoring the territorial integrity of Ukraine” is one of the conditions. In a separate order, Zelenskyi also banned negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
SCMP writes that Zelenskyi makes unrealistic demands that will not satisfy Moscow. According to the author of the article, Ukraine should abandon the idea of returning the territory in order to restore peace.
“The unreasonable political leadership of Kyiv sees nothing but their desire to return the lost lands,” the article reads.
SCMP also notes that Western patrons of Ukraine are increasingly saying that there is not and cannot be a military solution to this conflict.

CENTCOM spokesman Joe Buccio also responded to the incident, saying attacks of this nature threaten coalition forces and civilians and undermine hard-won stability and security in Syria and the region.
This is not the first attack on American facilities in Syria. On November 17, missiles were fired at a US military base near the Omar oil field in Deir ez-Zor province. After several explosions, a fire broke out in the area.
