1. In the 2010s, Nikolai Rastorguev was diagnosed with acute renal failure. For several years he stood in line for a kidney transplant in Russia – all this time he was on dialysis. After three years of waiting, Rastorguev underwent surgery in a clinic in Germany. Rastorguev also bought property in the Austrian city of Baden-Baden: he himself calls this rumor and denies it.
2. In the fall of 2022, Georgy Leps and his musicians went to give concerts for residents and military personnel in the DPR and LPR. “Health fighters and doctors have as little work as possible. “Thank them very much for their work and heroism,” the singer said in September 2022 after visiting military hospitals in Donetsk. In November, Leps commented on his trip as follows: “We support fighters with deeds, not stories. Our civic position is the actions we take.”
3. Buryatia is in 14th place in the Russian Federation in gold mining; it has 48% of Russia’s zinc reserves, malachite, oil, and Baikal, the largest lake in the world. With all these riches, Buryatia ranks 81st out of 85 regions of Russia in terms of quality of life.
4. The Murmansk garrison military court sentenced reservist Alexei Molchanov to a fine of 52 thousand rubles. In December 2021, he was on a training exercise at a firing range, where he found 25 rounds of ammunition. Molchanov took the ammunition with him, but did not take it home: the police discovered it during a search operation at the railway station. Later in court, the reservist explained that he wanted to make a gift out of the cartridges for his nephew.
5. The coup in Myanmar began on February 3 because the government wanted to allow the new parliament to meet despite allegations of election fraud. A year after the coup, according to the UN, at least 930 people, including women and children, were killed at the hands of security forces, and hundreds of people were arrested. There have also been several executions in Myanmar. For the first time since 1990, oppositionists were executed there. Former National Association for Democracy lawmaker Phyo Zeya Thaw, rapper Pyo Zeya Tiao, who released the country’s first-ever hip-hop album, and writer Ko Min Yew were accused of helping the junta that seized power in 2020.

Here is a retelling of the study . What’s wrong here?Japanese researchers in 2017 found that cats have the ability to remember. To do this, they conducted three experiments. In the first, they placed four bowls of food in front of 49 pets, allowing them to eat from two. After 15 minutes, all the bowls were empty. After another 15 minutes, the scientists gave the cats the same four bowls, but this time two contained food, one contained an inedible item, and one was empty. They could only eat from one.Your answer
