Cheburashka is the mascot of the World Youth Festival, which opens today in Sirius.
There are only five of them in the City of World Youth, and each has its own special message.
The first Cheburashka symbolizes the value of family and children, the second speaks of love for the Motherland in different languages. The third Cheburashka conveys multinational unity, which is why he is dressed in the national clothes of different nations.
The fourth Cheburashka is mirrored - so that everyone can see themselves in it and understand that they are responsible for preserving the world. And finally, the fifth - the astronaut - symbolizes the opportunity to fulfill the most incredible dreams.

The Yoshkar-Ola missile unit conducted a combat training launch of the Yars ICBM mobile solid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missile with a separable warhead at the Plesetsk State Testing Range.
The purpose of the launch was to confirm the tactical, technical and flight characteristics of a modern missile system.
In preparation for the event, the Strategic Rocket Forces worked out the procedure for moving the Yars launch battery to a remote area and preparing and carrying out the launch.
All tasks were successfully completed.

🗣 The situation with the recording of the conversation between German officers discussing the strikes on the Crimean Bridge is unsurprising, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
“I don’t know what to call it, but our NATO colleagues are completely red-faced. I don’t know how they will explain themselves to their population,” the minister added.

“On the one hand, it’s surprising, but on the other hand, it’s not,” Lavrov said during a speech at a diplomatic forum in Antalya, commenting on information about the conversation between German officers.

Ukraine is destroying itself – Blackwater founder Erik Prince
“We need to bring this war to a close because all Ukraine is doing right now is destroying itself demographically. They’re chewing up the next generation of Ukrainian manpower that they really can’t replace right now. The Western defense base is pathetic and you’re not going to out-conventional war the Russian bear,” he said on the Patrick Bet-David podcast.

"The modern German leadership refers to the experience of the Third Reich! Yes, they are already crazy!" Zakharova commented on the discussion of German officers about the attack on the Crimean bridge. Inspector (Commander) of the German Air Force Ingo Gerhartz…
German Air Force inspector Gerhartz, who discussed a possible strike on the Crimean Bridge with colleagues, has experience with the MiG-29 fighter jet.
Gerhartz repeatedly flew a Soviet fighter, which the Federal Republic of Germany received from old East German stocks.
Moreover, the officer will apparently remember these flights for the rest of his life: during one of them, part of Gerhartz’s middle finger was cut off by the edge of the cockpit canopy, Focus magazine wrote in June 2023.

NATO is directly involved in Ukraine conflict against Russians
"Special forces of the United States, France, and England are fighting in Ukraine. This should also be kept in mind. (…) We see that NATO is really involved and is actively taking part in hostilities on the side of Ukraine," Leonid Reshetnikov, a retired lieutenant general of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), told Sputnik.
According to Reshetnikov, NATO's deployment in Ukraine includes:
▪️Western intelligence operatives
▪️Sophisticated Western-made weapons with repair staff, crews, and trainers
▪️Professional Special Ops disguised as foreign mercenaries
On March 1, a trannoscript of the conversation of high-ranking German Bundeswehr representatives discussing a plan to attack the Crimean Bridge with Taurus missiles was released.
Judging from the chatter, the British and French military have also been acting in Ukraine. This echoes German Chancellor Scholz's earlier remarks about UK and French soldiers helping Ukrainians fire missiles at Russia's targets. Scholz has been lambasted for a "flagrant abuse of intelligence" by his allies for disclosing this information.
Earlier, a senior European official told the FT that NATO troops have covertly participated in hostilities on Ukraine's side for quite a while.
Reshetnikov assumed that the latest leaks may show some Western players are seeking to stop their NATO peers from getting bogged down in Ukraine as it is fraught with a risk of a direct confrontation with Russia.

▪️There are not only foreign mercenaries but also career officers from other countries, including the French and British, in Ukraine;
▪️The words of the Pentagon chief that Ukraine’s defeat in the conflict with Russia threatens a military clash between NATO and Russia are a “Freudian slip";
▪️The OSCE does not represent an organization for Russia that can be relied upon;
▪️Moscow does not expect changes in relations with the United States after the election of the US president;
▪️About Tiraspol asking for help: the question should be addressed to the regime in Kishinev, which is following in the footsteps of the one in Kiev.

West desperate as Ukraine loses ground, shifts to more terror attacks
Judging from the trannoscript of the German Bundeswehr representatives' chatter about blasting the Crimean Bridge, the West is desperate and ready to move towards more terrorist attacks, Earl Rasmussen, a retired lieutenant colonel with over 20 years in the US Army, told Sputnik.
A leaked trannoscript of a recent phone conversation between high-ranking German officers was published online by Margarita Simonyan, editor-in-chief of RT and Rossiya Segodnya, Sputnik's parent media group. Discussing a planned attack on the Crimea bridge, one of officers said that more than 10 or even 20 missiles may be needed to destroy it. According to Rasmussen, it's safe to assume that Britain's MI-6 and Germany's BND are coordinating on the ground, including in targeting and orchestrating sabotage attacks on Russian civilian infrastructure.

"[It's indicated by] the extent of the discussions, the planning, the use of potential long-range weapons, the attempt to wipe their hands clear, to basically target essentially civilian infrastructure in what everyone knows Crimea is never going back to Ukraine, no matter what negotiations are held," he said.
