For the second Monday in a row, rap battles is becoming the most discussed theme of the day, but other events are taking place in the world.

In the diamond mine “Mir” in Yakutia, the tenth day continues the search for eight missing miners. The deputy head of the Ministry of Emergencies Vladlen Aksenov admitted that "to advance is very difficult." At the same time, rescuers seemed to be able to establish an approximate whereabouts of people. The scale of destruction inside the mine can be estimated by the photo.

The FSB reported on the detention of four people, who, according to the special services, prepared terrorist attacks in Moscow. And even posted a video . One of the detainees is a Russian, the rest are visitors from Tajikistan . It was planned to commit terrorist attacks on transport and in shopping centers.

In the United States, they began to pursue participants in the nationalist action in Charlotsville. Moreover, opponents of the alt-right took advantage of their favorite tactics-they began to expose opponents through social networks.

Oximiron first lost Battle (now officially)

Perhaps the most popular Russian rapper Miron Fedorov AKA Oxxxymiron lost rap-Battle for the first time in his career. And now everyone is talking about this, and the video of the verbal match of Oximiron and the purulent (Glory of the CPSU) gained more than 7 million views in less than a day. If you are too lazy to watch, but I want to understand what is the essence, this is a summary . Meanwhile, everyone who is not lazy, including Alexei Navalny and Mikhail Khodorkovsky, reacted to the result. In addition, a thematic flash mob was launched on Twitter. And we, for our part, collected gifs for different occasions with an oximiron - in our editorial office they still love him.

If you are not interested in rap battles, Yegor Moskvitin released a review of the next series of Game of Thrones. There, as usual, a bunch of spoilers, so click on the link only if you have already watched the series.

Malakhov, Poltavchenko, traffic cops

Another discussion of the last days under discussion is Andrei Malakhov. The departure of the host from Channel One has not yet been completely confirmed, but the issue “Let them talk” has already been aired, where Malakhova was replaced by Dmitry Borisov. The release was dedicated to Malakhov himself and how he made the program. However, the intrigue around its decision is preserved .

Two topics about Zenit fans. Firstly, at the match with the Grozny “Akhmat” they made a very powerful banner about the sank “Kursk”. Secondly, it turned out that about a week before the game, the governor of St. Petersburg Georgy Poltavchenko chanted along with the Chechen leadership “Akhmat-Strength!”. What caused quite understandable questions among Petersburgers. The governor’s press service assures that he is suffering only for Zenit.

The traffic police inspectors were forbidden to be rude to drivers, smoking when communicating with them, as well as to blame and insult it to them. It is hard to believe that everything will change at once, but playgrounds where you can play good police officers are already being built.

PS

If you missed on the weekend, we had a photo gallery about the camp in the Magadan region, where in Soviet times the prisoners mined uranium ore for nuclear bombs. The director of the Gulag History Museum Roman Romanov spoke about the expedition during which these pictures were taken.
