#Krymsk. 07/14/2012. Second day

07/14/2012

It was very funny this morning. I attended a planning meeting with the guys, organized by the regional department for youth policy. Nashists and Young Guards in general. They talked about how you had to drink carefully, otherwise they would say later that the authorities had forced the kids to drink. Their camp is protected by police and fenced. They are afraid of something. Other volunteer camps are open, of course, because there is a constant flow of people. They also said that provocateurs would come, take pictures of how you don’t work and behave badly, and publish them. I held the camera awkwardly. By the way, then I photographed some old men in T-shirts of the Young Guard and PZhiV. These were the mummers... A whole group walked the streets. That's all. Apparently, I’m a provocateur, since I filmed this.

He escaped from the Nazi camp to Komsomolskaya, 1a. The head of the local Union of Soldiers' Mothers, Valentina Leonidovna, lives there. The aunt, as expected, is in the opposition and therefore is listed everywhere as dead. And no help. One wall of her house fell apart. And in the yard, a neighbor drowned. He lived with her after the fire in the barn. Igor Drandin and the guys from Democratic Choice arrived. They brought her help. I worked with them all day. By the way, about help. The people, almost everyone we helped, were asked to sign a document stating that they had been notified of the flood, but they stayed. Everyone refused for help of 10 thousand.

At first they tried to take income tax (!) from this money. Then the police intervened. At the volunteer headquarters we took the addresses and went. Everywhere it’s the same thing - terrible devastation, everything is destroyed, knee-deep in silt and mud. In some places there is still water. Some houses collapsed like boxes. Judging by the smell, there are remains there. Today, by the way, a guy spent the night next to me who was overwhelmed and lay in the water for two days. Lost my mind.

About the victims, since everyone is interested. Locals say about 3500. That's it. Absolutely. A lot of people also saw Magnitovsky refrigerators with corpses. We talked to them. The administration has issued approximately the same amount of paperwork for funerals. From the words. But the morgues are overflowing. And on the tags, for example, 377. This was already told to me by RIA Novosti journalists who went to remove the dam today. It’s intact, it seems like there shouldn’t be a second wave... Although later Kashin, it seems, explained that the numbering started in the fall.

I spoke today with an aunt who, while they were raking in the neighboring yard, found a baby. Not just one. And Sv. Viktorovna, the doctor with whom I came, now told me about the family from the car who were scattered by the wave over 4 km. Today the EMCHE team collected them. In general, there is a lot of grief and tears here. The guys and I cleared five houses, which seems to be a record for today. Volunteers work everywhere. The Ministry of Emergency Situations officially numbers 8 thousand here, but they are not visible at all. But today the deputy minister handed out Emchere T-shirts to volunteers. Under the cameras of the 1st channel. With laughter and jokes. Now they will show how it works in houses like the Ministry of Emergency Situations. All the authorities here are bastards. Without exception. And the m****ish Gatarov wrote on our photo that they were “mummers.” This is the leading Young Guard who photoshopped the fire extinguishing... S***, what.

In the evening I fed our whole gang from the Cossacks. We took an ice-cold shower at a local hotel and that was it. Tomorrow back to the mud, rubble and people. By the way, today I was persuaded in three houses to move and live here. They gave us tincture and homemade wine and fed them watermelons. The authorities were scolded. Anything and anyone. And they cried.
