🇷🇺Russian 🚁Helicopter Accidentally Fires 🚀Rockets During Exercise

-



During the Zapad 2017 military exercise, what appears to be a pair of Ka-50 Black Shark attack helicopters, are seen flying low towards the target while a man casually walks into the frame. A second later. Boom!

According to reports, the incident took place at Luzhsky range near St. Petersburg earlier this week. The same report mentions that there appeared to be a technical glitch and that, “The missiles blasted off on their own.”

The injured are reportedly journalists who were there to cover the wargames.

Russian officials and Orthodox priests on Tuesday unveiled a statue in Moscow of inventor Mikhail Kalashnikov, whose iconic AK-47 assault rifle has claimed countless lives worldwide. Culture minister Vladimir Medinsky praised the inventor and called the rifle — which has been reproduced an estimated 100 million times worldwide — a “cultural brand for Russia.” Kalashnikov had “the best traits of a Russian: an extraordinary natural gift, simplicity, integrity,” Medinsky said. Born in a Siberian village in 1919, Mikhail Kalashnikov died in December 2013 in Izhevsk, the capital of the Russian republic of Udmurtia, where he lived. Six months before his death he wrote to the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, expressing regret for his role in making the world’s most commonly used rifle. “My spiritual pain is unbearable,” he wrote in the letter which was later published in the Izvestia newspaper.

Donald Trump’s summer swoon appears to be over. After months of declining poll numbers, the president’s approval ratings have stabilized — and even ticked up slightly — over the past month. Following a low of 39 percent in the POLITICO/Morning Consult poll last month after his controversial reaction to the violent protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, Trump is back at 43 percent in this week’s survey. Other surveys show similar results: Trump bottomed out at 35 percent in Gallup’s weekly tracking poll in late August, but ticked up to 38 percent last week. Trump is at 40 percent in the RealClearPolitics average, up about 2.5 points from his low-water mark last month. Trump’s popularity still remains historically low for a first-year president.
