On October 3rd, 1993, 120 Delta Force Commandos and Army Rangers were dropped into the heart of Mogadishu, Somalia. Their mission was a fast daylight raid to kidnap lead terrorist Mohammed Farrah Aidid, who had been killing U.N. workers delivering food to starving Somalis. Aidid’s goal was to control the country by controlling all the food. The mission abruptly changed to a rescue operation. Surrounded by Somali militia, a fierce firefight ensued that left American troops trapped and fighting for their lives. The ordeal left 18 American men dead, 70 wounded, with 3,000 Somalis casualties. This brilliant documentary tells the true story of "Black Hawk Down" through the memories and voices of the American Special Forces survivors. Also included are Somali militiamen as they recount their harrowing experiences of battle. close

XX century Never before has the world changed so much, never seen so devastating wars, under the cover of which even more terrible crimes were committed. A new word appears in the dictionary – “Genocide”. The term was coined in 1944 by Polish lawyer Rafael Lemkin. The real basis for this definition was the extermination of the Armenian population in the Ottoman Empire. From 1877 to 1923, according to various estimates, from 1 to 1.5 million Armenians became victims of genocide. What's next? No conclusions have been drawn from this... And where did all this lead? close

Created in 1943 by a team of specialists under the leadership of A. S. Yakovlev single-engine fighter Yak-3 was an improved version of the Yak-1 M. It turned out to be the lightest fighter in the world, with high - up to 650 km / h. - speed, high maneuverability and surprisingly easy to fly. Fast and agile, gaining a good height and speed, the Yak-3 caused significant moral damage to the famous German aces, accustomed to feel like masters of the sky. The French pilots from the Normandy-Neman regiment who tested his combat qualities rated the Yak-3 very highly.
