Researchers found the same components in the latest Russian missiles as in the game consoles of the early 2000s. In Bucha, the burnt remains of at least two people were found, in the ash lay a cross and a six -pointed star on chains. The referendum on the accession of Kherson to Russia “on a pause” due to the “security situation”. Borrel: Due to the help of Ukraine, the EU military reserves are "exhausted largely." The Magate mission leaves the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, and the shelling continues. The Mediazone chose the main thing from everything that happened during the day in the war and in connection with the war.
Experts from Conflict Armament Research published a report from which it follows that the most modern Russian cruise missiles and shock helicopters use the same technologies as in game consoles. To find out this, the researchers analyzed the fragments of three Russian cruise missiles, including the new X-101 and those used by the Tornado-S RSOs.
“This is the level of technology of the late 1990s, in the best case of the mid-2000s. In fact, this is an analogue of the Xbox 360 game console. And it seems that it is open to everyone who wants to make it out and assemble their own copy, ” said the New York Times Arsenio Menendes, an engineer working with NASA and studied photographs of Russian electronics that experts provided to him.
Menendes believes that the navigation system used in Russian missiles is similar to primitive GPS receivers, which sometimes do not incorrectly process a satellite signal. Such a system, according to the expert, "can even build a team of electrical engineers from college." According to Menendes, this can partly explain the low accuracy of Russian missiles.
Damien Spliters from Conflict Armament Research claims that Russians use the same electronic components of foreign production in different types of weapons, from cruise missiles to shock helicopters. At the same time, microcircuits and details found in Russian weapons should not have been supplied to Russia after 2014 due to sanctions.
In Buch, Kyiv region, the remains of at least two more civilians who died during the occupation of the city by Russian troops were discovered. The burned bones were found in garage boxing, according to the head of the police of the Kiev region Andrei Nebytov. Also, two chains, a cross, a six -pointed star, a hairpin and three keys on a metal holder remained at the crime scene.
The fact that the Kherson region is “ready for a referendum”, but “because of the security situation, a pause was taken,” said TASS agency with reference to Kirill Stremiosov, appointed by the Russian military employee of the regional administration.
On August 30, he talked about the “peaceful sky” over Kherson in the video recorded in Voronezh.
Since the EU members continue to supply weapons to Ukraine, their weapons reserves are depleted, said the chairman of the European Parliament Josep Borrel.
“The military reserves of most member states were, I would not say-exhausted, but exhausted to a large extent, because we provide great potential for Ukrainians,” he warned during the debate with European legislators.
He called on the EU countries to better coordinate the costs of military equipment: “The weapons supply must be replenished. The best way to replenish is to do it together. It will be cheaper. "
The chairman of the European Parliament also admitted that the EU missed the opportunity to start training the Ukrainian military a year ago. “Unfortunately, we have not done this today. We regret that in August last year we did not fulfill this request [Ukraine], ”said Borrel.
The Magate mission at the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant will end on September 6, Vladimir Rogov, an official of the Zaporizhzhya regional administration, appointed by the Russian military, told about this.
Rogov claims that from September 1, the station was located at the station of the IAEA of 13 people. At the same time, on September 2, the head of the IAEA Rafael Grossy, who headed the mission, said that six agency specialists will continue to work at the ZAES. Today, four of them left , two remained as observers.
The Russian Ministry of Defense again accused Ukraine of “provocations” at the nuclear power plant, and the employees of the Zaporizhzhya regional administration appointed by Russia say that the Ukrainian military inflicted at least three strokes at the station. The Ukrainian "Energoatom" claims that these Russian troops are firing at the nuclear power plant for the past three days, the power lines were damaged as a result, and today the station was completely disconnected for the second time from the Ukrainian energy system.
France President Emmanuel Macron today called the departure of Russian troops with the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant the only way to ensure its security.
