Good morning once again, you are watching
0:17
the news on the Navalny LIVE channel
0:19
The main story is unfolding right now.
0:25
[applause]
0:28
We should probably tell you about how today in
0:30
Russia, there are
0:31
rallies taking place as part of a nationwide campaign
0:34
with numerous protests gathering
0:36
Russians across the country, despite
0:38
the authorities' opposition. And we do not have
0:41
the technical ability to continue that feed further.
0:49
You know, despite the cold weather, people
0:54
in Eastern Siberia, in Zabaykalsky Krai,
0:56
and the Trans-Urals have already held rallies today.
0:58
Alena, before the rallies, the picture suggests
1:01
that the movement is progressing from east to west. Right
1:03
now it is 10 a.m. Moscow time, and rallies
1:05
have begun in Izhevsk, Orenburg, Biysk, and
1:09
the city of Chaikovsky in Perm Krai.
1:12
In some Russian cities, an authorized
1:14
march has already begun. An hour ago, a truly
1:17
heroic rally ended in the city of Yakutsk. There,
1:19
concerned residents were not stopped even by
1:22
-45°C (-49°F) temperatures. It passed without detentions.
1:25
Those gathered peacefully expressed their position.
1:28
Someone has just come in here to us now, sorry for the
1:31
technical issues, some complaints—
1:32
someone is trying in some way to remove us
1:35
from here. We continue. Let me remind you that
1:37
the first rally took place at 3:30 a.m.
1:39
Moscow time in Magadan, which is
1:41
in the eastern part of the country. And here we have video.
1:43
There is a police officer here in a technical
1:46
room, so to speak. We cannot
1:56
show him fully. Please show—just, just
2:05
for a moment he showed us his ID. We
2:07
could not make out what was on it. They are saying
2:09
that there is a bomb threat here.
2:11
They are being told that they have no right to interfere
2:14
with journalists doing their work and going live
2:17
on air.
2:20
News secto—
2:22
As soon as they arrived, they said there was a bomb threat.
2:23
Two police officers in uniform are here, forcing people out.
2:26
They are using force against our lawyer and twisting his arms.
2:29
Right now, even the person who
2:33
is staying behind...
2:34
Please identify yourself. What is your name?
2:35
Show your ID, please. All right, how
2:38
should we address you? I understand there is a threat
2:40
of an explosion. What is your name? He showed
2:41
his ID like this.
2:42
All right, your ID—while you are here,
2:44
please show your ID. How should we address you?
2:46
Tell us. Let's do it here, I will come over there.
2:49
...besides that, how should we address you?
2:55
We understand, but please show your
2:58
IDs first, and then we can proceed further.
3:00
What authority do you have here legally?
3:03
If it is legitimate, then show it and explain.
3:07
They used force and removed [someone] from this room.
3:09
The girls who handle the technical side
3:11
of the broadcast continue
3:14
to hold their position. Will you be able to...
3:17
Wait, there is also a smell here, yes, a smell.
3:20
It is quite distinctive here, it smells
3:23
like some kind of burning or chemicals,
3:28
they are opening doors there. I suspect that it was
3:31
it was
3:31
something like a chainsaw, not very
3:34
for long...
3:42
The equipment is gradually
3:44
That is why you cannot see everything now,
3:46
not very clearly, I think.
3:49
And police officers are literally at the entrance, as we
3:52
were saying an hour ago, they came in here
3:54
in this building.
3:54
Somehow, simply through...
3:57
We are safe. To Elena's husband and her
4:00
child, I want to say that she is all right.
4:02
She has been without a phone for about an hour, and
4:06
basically, do not be alarmed if
4:07
one of us is not reachable on messenger for now.
4:09
At the moment, our colleagues in Khabarovsk are out of contact, and literally
4:12
a second later—police came in.
4:16
Apparently now this will be done by force.
4:18
.
4:19
We still have information that in Novosibirsk
4:23
today there was
