- Blinking, I jump up to the window. Sleepy! Boin to wife: “All! Bombed! Run! "
-Who will bomb something?
- Ukraine!
- Well, you have a subconscious, neighbor!
The high -rise building is bristled with beams, window glasses, twisted bricks. He hits the air with curtains. There is simply no corner of the house - how it was bitten. The neighboring five -story building - house number 18 - also suffered, a piece of the roof was torn out. Both houses are evacuated. Two cranes similar to insects hang over the houses.
Rescuers work on the roof - they are clinging to fragments. Hang on taps. On the contrary - in the shadow of Gazprom's gas station - there are people. Everyone looks upstairs. Both empires and a cordon police also look up. Girls of about seven are focused on phones.
All morning after the explosion, the building was strengthened with iron brackets from the inside. High -rise taps arrived only at 4 o’clock in the afternoon. For some reason, Putin was waiting with them.
- She came to us all the time, bought food! - The saleswoman talks about the deceased Victoria Larikova. - So good! And for what is she? For what?
- Girl, are you from Moscow? - another seller is suitable. - Give the hello to your Putin. Will he come?
- Why will he come? - the woman says in a chant. - Not enough of us exploded!
The street responds with a rumble.
- I have 11 thousand salary, she has a saleswoman nods at a friend - a pension of 8500. From this month, a hundred per person per person per month. A hundred per person! You are wiping there there, I suppose.
- One place of work is a ceramic factory! - the guy picks up. - There and 27 can be earned! Maximum here! You get a janitor, you go and can, you fall to your knees-take me to the workshop.
- Have you seen our streets? And we go and walk along them.
- The snow is removed 8 days after the snowfall, when it is stuck, and then along the central streets.
- Propame!
“What are you telling her,” the emchasnik from the cordon suddenly responds, is also a local one. - To Ukraine, they are plus lens for any event, as they do, and a minus to Russia. Everything is fine with us. Here you are - pokes on the operator of the first channel setting the camera. “Tell me, why are you shooting so much, but show it so much?”
“So I'm just taking off,” the operator replies. - Others show. I myself am from Rostov, men.
“Why are you shooting them then?” - says the Emcheusnik. - If not shown.
- Not enough of us exploded! - repeats the woman.
Two drones fly over the ruins. A column of bricks, unsuccessfully picked, falls back into a mess of ruins. The crowd exhales and retreats.

Around the cabin of the crane is a circle of emptiness. The operator - a man with a reddened face - moves a giant plate in the air. He lowers slowly.
- Arrival at yourself, arrow! - says the radio.
- I removed the stove. It began to play and reduce.
At 17.03, the cranes freeze. Three representatives of evacuation intelligence enter the building - to look for people.
“Currently, fate is unknown,” says the Emchenstik to reporters. - How much you can repeat!
The headquarters are deployed in the courtyard. Together with the Emchens, the Investigative Committee, the FSB, and the military are officials.

The Governor of the Rostov Region Golubev announces the cameras: one -time payments of 10 thousand rubles, financial assistance from 200 to 600 thousand, in a million to the families of the dead.
The State Duma deputy in the Shakhty district Maxim Ivanovich Schablykin (United Russia) explains that tomorrow at the meeting everything will tell colleagues.
The main conclusion from the incident-the 161st article of the Housing Code should be changed. We need free access to specialists to check gas equipment, both in the entrance and in the apartment. For lack of permit - at least administrative responsibility. "... If people had come to people that there are gas control systems, very inexpensive ..."
(The next day, a group of deputies of the State Duma, led by the leader of Fair Russia, Sergei Mironov, introduced a bill providing for the installation of gas security systems in residential buildings at the expense of residents.)
Employees of PJSC Gazprom - a gas supplier to the injured house - stand right there. “We will give an interview when it should be. We have already been told that they would interrogate everyone. One thing, let's say - for us this is an absolute surprise. ”
Nearby workers boil temporary heating pipes. By evening, the city administration will announce that it was decided to restore the house.
REFERENCE
The city of mine is one of the poorest cities in Russia. The average salary is 24.91 thousand rubles (the locals, however, are called a figure of 15): enough for a minimum grocery set and rent. Around the city formed from mine villages, today there is not a single mine. Toponyms remained - a proletarian dictatorship, unexpected, inclined, HBK, Mashzavod. There is no one anymore. From public transport - minibuses and rare buses. As the dreams recall the trams (disappeared in 2001) and trolleybuses (disappeared in 2007).With nostalgia they recall the mayor Sergei Ponomarenko, who wrapped the city with tiles from his own tile plant. In 2012, Ponomarenko, for several months of non-mayor, killed "in Moscow." Its portrait hangs on the former trolleybus depot, converted into the City of the Future shopping complex. Under the portrait - the signature: "Everything is known in comparison."
Since then, the heads of the city have changed three times.
There are simply no roads, with the exception of central ones. In winter, these are ice growths, “but we even rejoice when so,” the Shakhtins say, “it is more and more equally.” Residents with resentment recall how in 2014-2015, when the border city was full of Ukrainian refugees, the Ukrainians said: “We have a war-but your road is still worse.”
10 Olympic and one Paralympic champion came out of the city of mine. The only stadium in the city is literally in ruins.
Khabarova Street, on which the house stood, was considered central, successful - it was cleaned and had lanterns. But in order to go to the school where the headquarters of assistance to the victims is located, you cross the wastelands overgrown with bushes, garages and ruins of Barakov. The barracks are settled, but every now and then lights flash in the thickets - people do not want to move out, "all their land."

School No. 23 is decorated with frescoes in the Soviet style, a portrait of young Putin and tricolors. The victims were delivered here immediately after the explosion. Here you can write an application for financial assistance, application for placement, get things, eat. Psychologists and the Investigative Committee work here. With dark, the school is empty. In the classroom for desks, under tables with cosine, they sit officials of the local administration and bring the lists of victims - for the governor. No one wants to introduce himself - "we will be extreme."
Valentina Nikolaevna Sivolovskaya barely speaks of excitement. She is from a neighboring five -story building attached to the injured house. “Once - cotton. I opened the windows on the road. Pipes, bricks. The leader-driver screams-that you rush me when half a house turned around! Then I jumped out. " With her, the daughter Elena and the granddaughter of Yesenia came to school - in pajamas with a unicorn.
- The cat remained in the house. Koshechka, two years to her.
- Bald? -specifies the woman-volunteer. - Or fluffy?
- Yes, no one. We were allowed to rise later, we begged. She clogged somewhere. I left the water and food to her. And now they say - for six months you can’t go into the house. How is she? I have not left water for six months!
Valentina Nikolaevna is led to measure pressure.

Valentina Ivanovna and Boris Fedorovich Kurdovs are sitting over food, meatballs and buckwheat. It turns out with difficulty. “We had such a friendly house,” she says. - Not a single person is bad, can you believe? Here is not a single one. We lived happily. And what they say now: they were heated by gas burners - I can confirm you that this is a lie. It was warm, and hot water, and batteries. I have witnesses - on this day we came to visit, we will prove! And one more - thanks for not Magnitogorsk. 2.5 bricks of wall thickness, and bricks are not like now. ” “Thanks to the builders. I would really like to know the truth, ”says Boris Fedorovich.

At the Gornyak hotel, 30 people were placed - the rest were dismantled by relatives. Three times people are taken to dinners. How long they are here - it is not yet clear.
The Timofeev family from the 8th floor saved all-and now it occupies two neighboring rooms. Five people are Svetlana Ivanovna, her 80-year-old parents are Antonina Vasilievna and Ivan Mikhailovich, her children are Dima and Katya. You can’t call it otherwise like a miracle.

“We woke up with a roar,” says Katya, “we thought that this refueling exploded!” But then I saw that the door was lying on my bed.
“I tell mom: call firefighters! And mom, and mom says why I will call? We have a stationary phone on the wall. We wanted to be on the phone, but there is no wall. And there is no phone - with a wall. "
Svetlana Ivanovna Timofeeva, an employee of the city library, says:
- I get up early, at six. Every day I cook breakfast. My daughter works in Rostov, rides every day, and my son later. The dumplings on the eve were sculpted with surprises, they were going to get to work, to darken everyone. I lay them out, stand in the middle of the kitchen. And suddenly some kind of such explosion, something buzzed. And dust is worth it. I go to the window, I think-something at the gas station. Then I understand that there is no glass in the kitchen at all. He is not! I go out into the corridor, and I understand that I can’t pass, because the trellis fell, the entrance door somehow ended up in the corridor.
“She opens out so, and she knocked her inward,” Dima said.
- I shout: children, children, are you alive? First, my son says something, then a daughter. And the bedroom is further - and the door is closed. I scream: Dad, where are you? Dad responds. I scream: mom, mom! And she does not hear very well. And she is silent. And I understand that everything is. Mom, mom! And then she says: everything is in order, everything is fine with me. And so it was relieved. I realized - we are all alive. And what is destroyed - yes, Lord. We are all alive.
Then the neighbor jumped out of the neighboring apartment. He is young, the police work, they recently moved.
“He asks: do you all have alive? I say: yes! I ask: And our neighbors, plowmen? And he somehow looks through and says: but it is impossible to go there. ”

“I was friends with Tanya,” says Katya. -At school, they still stopped, but somehow ... Dad was engaged in aquarium fish professionally, he made aquariums, sold. They had an apartment as an oceanarium. The whole room is like under water, so beautiful.
The youngest daughter of Pashutin Irina is now returning from Slovakia. She was 19 years old, she wanted to enter a doctor there, attended courses.
Kirill Larikov lies in the intensive care unit. The droppers are changing him - one after another. An hour later, the operation is to form a lacrimal canal on the left eye. The face is excised with concrete fragments. A heavy concussion, getting up is forbidden.

“The most necessary is the phone with access to the Internet,” says Cyril. - I really need a phone.
The nurse warningly wides her eyes. Psychologists work with Cyril.
His wife Victoria died.
- At 4 in the morning I cried my daughter. I got up to rock her. And it was lucky that the bedroom and I went into the hall. The wife did not survive, but my daughter and I survived. The explosion was from a neighboring apartment. And I don't remember. Just fragments and darkness. You lie under a meter of fragments. I had a free leg, and under my foot - either a stove or a tile, I knocked. The sound gave some kind of alive. I heard the rescuers, began to knock, scream, they began to dig out. At first they found our daughter. Then they dug me up. Before me was a wife - dead. And I ended up here.
Three -year -old Polina is now with her grandmother in the Rostov hospital. Her life does not threaten anything. “Even there will be no injuries,” the doctors say. “Very small to remember.”
“You have to live on,” says Cyril. - The main thing for me is to stand on my feet. Move. At least look at the window - I can not yet. I have a daughter. Everything will work out from scratch now. I myself cannot imagine. That even for the funeral I do not have time.
67-year-old Lyudmila Nikolaevna Vlasova was found at five in the morning, at the 23rd hour of search. By this moment, the mines administration had already developed a consensus regarding the perpetrators - it was semi -official to journalists explained that "the elderly person forgot to turn off the gas, and then created a spark."

Lyudmila Nikolaevna taught at the Shakhty College of Fuel and Energy. Against the general background of the devastation of the College mines, a prosperous enterprise, 2307 students, are employed by the results of “almost everything”. “Because we provide the miners of the whole of Russia to the Urals. All other schools have long been closed. ”
In the college in the morning, the portrait of Lyudmila Nikolaevna - “We are deeply mourn over the deceased colleague and teacher”, ribbon. They collect money - help with a funeral and daughter.
- She left the house at 6, drove two hours with two transfers; I was never late. Not a minute, ”says Lyudmila Filippova, secretary of the training department.
- I led five items, worked a lot - I tried to get salaries. And she taught a lot to us - and at a school in Novy Urengoy, in Tashkent, at the Fire -Technical School, at the Siberian branch of the Academy of Sciences of the SSR. A high -class specialist knew her business, says Viktor Nikolaevich, deputy director of the college. - Now we had gross checks - and fire, and SanPiN, and the Ministry of Education, helped a lot with writing. And you know what else I will say? I was still looking for a nurse. Found, I had to go out on Monday. Victoria Larikova. The first dead. Who should I replace now? How is it?

“She worked for us for more than two years.” Always responsive, responsible, students loved her very much, they went to her. She had a group, now they are all crying, ”says Ekaterina Vladimirovna Ivaneva, head of the department of the energy faculty, the head of Lyudmila Nikolaevna. - I do not believe that she did not close the gas, did not track. In two years, it has never happened so that at least she forgot a trifle, even nonsense. And she is a professional engineer. What other open gas?

In the city and school, they say that on January 12, the woman complained about the smell of gas in the entrance and, for this reason, asked for 16-year-old granddaughter Alina not to come to her for the old New Year-usually on Sundays, grandmother pulled her granddaughter in mathematics and physics. But they say "from other people's words."
Alina's father, Konstantin Shkinder, on January 14, on the phone, confirmed the new information to the Rostov Thinger of this information. From the moment the body of Lyudmila Nikolaevna was found, it is not available for comment. The Shakhtinsky PJSC Gazprom stated that no appeals have been received to them in recent days.
It gets dark again, put light devices. The work will last another night, and maybe one more.
“Please do not draw conclusions,” says the Ministry of Emergencies and asks not to give his last name. - We need to wait for the results of the autopsy. If the gas has accumulated in such quantities, the cause of death will also be gas. We need to wait for the conclusions of the investigation.
- Who do you put on - on a dead grandmother or Gazprom? - says a policeman for a policeman.
- Well, you asked.
