🌕 Extremely beautiful, isn't it? These mesmerising photos show a super moon. It was observed this night in different parts of the Earth.

During this natural phenomenon, our planet's satellite is brighter and larger. Astronomers say that even with binoculars you can see lunar seas, craters and mountains. Have you seen a super moon?

🔥– I stayed awake to see it
😢 – I missed it!

By the way, the phenomenon will happen again on August 31. Two super moons within one month are quite rare. According to experts, there will be no such thing until 2037.

Thousands of people across Russia are hunting for another natural event. They are ready to stay up at night and travel hundreds of kilometres. Our film ‘Aurora Hunters’ (2021) is about these enthusiasts.

📸More footage of migrants sleeping right on the streets of NYC has appeared. Hundreds are at the Roosevelt hotel - once an icon of New York architecture, and now a mere migrant reception centre. The city is drowning in immigrants, and the shelters and hotels are overflowing. Buses have been organised for people to sleep in, but that’s far from sufficient to meet their needs.

Why is the migrant problem so difficult for US authorities to solve? Find out in our documentary ‘US and the Wall’.

🙏Boy survives after falling 50m into volcano crater.

A walk in the woods could have ended in tragedy. A 8-year-old boy was visiting Galápagos National Park in Ecuador with his aunt. Walking on Xitle volcano, the boy fell 50 metres into a sinkhole crater.

The rescuers arrived on the scene and quickly took action, pulling the boy out of the bottom of the crater. Despite severe injuries, he survived the long fall. According to the hospital director, "something miraculous" must have saved him. Do you agree?

🇻🇪 Have you heard of the Tower of David? It's an abandoned skyscraper in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. It became home for 2,500 poor residents.

It wasn’t safe - drunks were often present in the stairwells, and people fell out of broken windows, still the place was always full of inhabitants.

Learn more on life in the abandoned skyscraper in our video and documentary ‘Occupy Tower’ (2015).

🏆As we have previously revealed, our film 'Tundra Wonder Moms' won the Best Feature Documentary category at Malaysia’s Walk The Doc 2023 International Documentary Festival. The festival was a wonderful experience.

In the event, we showed both the winning film and Natalya Kadyrova's 'Hot Race, Cold Dogs'. Both screenings had full houses of viewers, with lots of questions asked afterwards. People were interested to know how the documentary makers endured freezing temperatures, and how they made the equipment work and where they lived while filming.

Another of our film-makers, Artyom Vorobey, has conducted a workshop: ‘How to film Documentaries Abroad: Compromises and Perfectionism’, for documentary-makers from Asia.

The audience was amazed to hear that RT Documentary has made more than 1000 documentaries. We’re glad to work so that you can access true and inspiring stories from around the world.

▶️‘We miss him. God rest his soul,’ says 11-year-old Samir about his father, who died in a battle during a war in Syria.

Instead of going to school or playing with his friends, Samir provides for his family. He works 6 days a week, already drives a car and says he feels like a grown up, not a child anymore.

Listen to the boy’s tragic story in our video, and the documentary Growing up with War: Children of Syria(2017). It follows these young Syrians, who never knew peace and whose childhood was stolen.

‘We fled... our homes because of the war,’ says Diomine Diarra, a Malian refugee. 6 years ago he moved to a landfill together with his large family, fleeing from terrorists. Jihadists have been conducting their operations in Mali for years. In 2013, France volunteered to help, but only made things worse, and contributed to the deaths of thousands of civilians.

Locals suspect the French didn’t want to help but to gain influence over their former colony. It gained access to Mali's natural resources and enslaved its economy. But now, Malians say they will fight for their independence from the European state, and that they have a partner that will help them do it. Learn more in our documentary, ‘Mali: Au Revoir, France’.

🍂A deadly drought in Bolivia! The water level in Titicaca — the highest navigable lake in the world — has already dropped below the critical mark by two centimeters. According to scientists, by December, Titicaca will be depleted even further, by more than 60 centimeters.

The reason is the long absence of rains. Without them, the reservoir dries up, and there are almost no fish. The Indigenous Aymara communities suffer from this. The aborigines have relied on water to practice subsistence farming and raise livestock for millennia. Scientists also fear that the drought could permanently impact the region’s flora and fauna.

Find out how people live in ancient cities on Titicaca in this episode, from our series 'Bolivian DNA'.
