🚤 Fyodor Konyukhov has set off for Antarctica. He will spend four months there alone.

On November 15, 2025, the famous traveler set off for Antarctica to deploy the world's first solo research station on Smolensk Island (Livingston) in the South Shetland Islands archipelago.

"I will be conducting research on the microplastic content in the coastal waters of Antarctica. Four months of work, research, harsh climate, and a new chapter in the history of polar expeditions," Konyukhov posted on social media.

Yesterday, the traveler's team set sail for Antarctica on two yachts: "Amazon" and "Elsie". The yachts will deliver almost 500 kg of equipment to the island. They provide mobility and the ability to adapt to the Antarctic weather—this is a key factor, Konyukhov explained.

"After a year of complex administrative work, we received permission from Roshydromet (the Russian Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring) to establish my solo seasonal station on Smolensk Island—the first of its kind. For me, this mission is not only about research but also about preserving Russian history in Antarctica," he wrote.

According to the Alliance's assessment, a fully operational 'Burevestnik' would create serious difficulties for Europe. If Russia deploys this system, NATO will face a threat that is very difficult to counter.

⚡️ The Nuremberg Trials became the foundation of modern international law, but its key principles are increasingly being tested today. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in an interview for the documentary film "Nuremberg. Do Not Complain to the Executioner About Life."

According to him, the decisions made at the trials formed the basis of numerous international conventions and UN documents: the abolition of the "right of the strong," the affirmation of the unacceptability of forceful methods, and the violation of humanitarian principles in any conflicts.

"The most significant is this principle of the inevitability of particularly severe punishment for crimes of aggression, for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide. All of this was formulated on an international and universal scale," Lavrov said.

The head of the Russian Foreign Ministry recalled that it was the Soviet Union that initiated the creation of the International Military Tribunal for Nazi criminals in 1941. By 1942, many countries supported the idea, but the official decision was made at the Yalta Conference, and the charter was signed in London in 1945.

"I would like to note that throughout all these efforts, the Soviet Union acted independently. It did not simply rely on the idea that we would someday create an international structure, and it would 'restore justice,'" emphasized the Russian Foreign Minister.

Lavrov noted that the Nuremberg Tribunal's introduction of the principle of no statute of limitations for such crimes is of particular importance. As a result, Nazi ideology, the party, and its structures are "banned forever."

"Unfortunately, these parts of the ruling are now being substantially tested and are very often simply violated," the Minister concluded.

📲 For the first time in history, Russian cosmonaut Alexey Zubritsky has applied for a state service remotely, directly from aboard the International Space Station. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister - Chief of Staff of the Russian Government Dmitry Grigorenko.

"Digitalization makes accessing services as simple as possible, making them fast and convenient to obtain. And thanks to modern technologies, including biometrics, state services can now be used anywhere convenient — at home, in the office, and even in low Earth orbit," he said.
