The debate over gun control in the United States is sparked time and again after each mass shooting, but in the end, a solution is never reached.

For some, guns will always be a threat no matter what they are used for, while others are convinced the only way to teach gun safety is being around a gun. However, government attempts to restrict gun possession are viewed as clamping down on fundamental rights.

How can the government control a feature of American life that has historically kept that very government in check? And what lessons can be learned to prevent future tragedies from happening?

You voted - we did it! Here’s the first full documentary we uploaded on Telegram. Fascism: A History explores the nature of the ideology and how it’s been tainting societies long after Hitler. It’s also relevant to the current events unfolding in Ukraine.

Half of our lives are spent online sending email and reading electronic media. No wonder social networks are gaining more and more power over people and becoming significant decision-makers. Some might say they even outrank governments. In a digital world, being banned from a social network means social isolation and can cause serious reputational, if not health damage.

At the same time, Section 230 leaves the social networks invincible, as they are not held accountable for things posted. Yet, the three internet giants, YouTube, Google and Facebook, make their own choices about what news people see. Are they ready to open up about their censorship algorithms and consider wisely using the power section 230 gives them?

“Do me a favour, go and look at the dead. My husband went to the shop, and he’s missing.”

Our documentary filmmaker Vyacheslav Guz was filming the aftermath of a bus explosion in Donetsk when an elderly woman approached him. Unfortunately, investigators would not allow her to see the corpses.

Here’s what Vyacheslav told us: “She said to me: ‘Son, can you go through there?’ - I can, I said. – ‘Do me a favour, go and look at the dead. My husband went to the shop, and he’s not still returned. I’m afraid he’s among the dead. I’ll call him now. And you listen, if there will be a phone call.’I went to the bodies. One of them had a phone ringing in his trousers...”

This very bus after the explosion is in the photo.

For 872 days, Leningrad was cut off from the outside world. Nazi forces encircled the city, launching the deadliest and longest blockade in history. Within the first few weeks, food supplies were depleted, leading to extreme famine. Glue, cellulose, shoe soles - anything consumable was used as food. About 1.1 million people died during the siege, most of them starved to death.

Lidia Sudina and Dmitry Buchkin witnessed air raids, bombardment, and starvation as children. Hear their recollection of the ordeal in our documentary, Leningrad Siege Reflections.

In Donetsk, the shelling doesn’t stop for a minute. Residents now have a pressing need for humanitarian aid. Volunteers risk their lives carrying basic necessities. Among the volunteers is the Donetsk blogger Andrei Lysenko. People from all over the world send Andrei money to buy food to deliver to the villages. The RT Documentary team also collected humanitarian aid for Donbass and the crew (director Oleg Nekishev, correspondent Vyacheslav Guz and cameraman Vladimir Lipatov) went to film the blogger at work.

First, Andrei and our team went to the Trudovskoye settlement. There, right after they handed the food out, the shelling began. Andrei and our team were trapped and unable to leave the area for some time.

When they moved on, they went to Yelenovka settlement, and the situation repeated. Fortunately, no one was injured. You can see when the team hid from shelling in Trudovskoye and came under fire on their way out of Yelenovka.
