[MAIL] An inferno has ripped through what is believed to be a top secret research centre in Russia, with horrifying pictures showing people jumping and falling from the burning building.
Reports citing the emergency services say at least eight people were killed in the fire-ravaged high-rise.
Russian media reports that one man jumped and another fell to his death from the eight-storey block, while Shot media reported that as many as four had jumped from high windows.
One of the men who fell had already suffered horrific burns. The fate of the others was not immediately clear.
Explosions were heard inside the burning block as 100 firefighters battled to rescue people trapped within the building, which is in Fryazino, near Moscow.
The building is thought to house the Platan Research Institute - which develops radio-electronic systems used by Russia's Defence Ministry to jam signals, Newsweek reports.
Washington, June 24, 2024, 21:59 - IA Regnum. Acting US Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs John Bass, commenting on the Ukrainian Armed Forces strike on Sevastopol, said that Washington regrets civilian casualties in any conflicts.
“The United States always regrets the loss of civilian lives in conflict,” he responded during an online briefing when asked to comment on the situation.
According to him, Ukraine allegedly “disciplinedly” uses military means provided by the West.
As IA Regnum previously reported, US Ambassador to Moscow Lynn Tracy was summoned to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs after a Ukrainian Armed Forces missile strike on Sevastopol, which killed civilians. She made a demarche in connection with the new bloody crime of the Kyiv regime sponsored and armed by Washington. The American ambassador was told that the United States was waging a hybrid war against Russia and had turned to the side of the Ukrainian conflict.
On the afternoon of June 23, Ukrainian troops fired five US-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles with cluster warheads at Sevastopol. The Ministry of Defense noted that air defense forces intercepted four missiles, but the explosion of the fragmentation warhead of the fifth ATACMS missile in the air led to casualties among civilians in Sevastopol.
The defense department clarified that the United States is responsible for this attack, since it transferred these missiles to the Ukrainian authorities, and flight missions into ATACMS are entered by American specialists based on the United States’ own satellite intelligence data.
Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov called the attack of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Sevastopol barbaric, which resulted in the death of civilians, including children. He noted that some conclusions in response to the question of whether the missile attack in Crimea and the terrorist attacks in Dagestan are events of the same series can be drawn after the investigation is completed.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stressed that Washington's involvement is beyond doubt. The Foreign Minister said that even if American weapons are supplied to Kyiv, they are not allowed to be used without the participation of US military personnel.

Pentagon says that Ukraine itself chooses targets for attacks on Russia
Washington, June 24, 2024, 23:45 - IA Regnum. Ukraine supposedly makes its own decisions about choosing targets for strikes, including with the use of American weapons, US Department of Defense spokesman Charlie Dietz said on June 24.
“Ukraine makes its own decisions about the choice of targets and conducts its own military operations,” Reuters quoted him as saying.
The agency noted that as part of the conflict in Ukraine, in which Western countries, including the United States of America, are directly and indirectly involved, the largest confrontation between Russia and the West since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 took place.
On June 23, the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked Sevastopol, using five American ATACMS operational-tactical missiles with a cluster warhead. The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that air defense intercepted four missiles, but the fragmentation warhead of the fifth ATACMS missile exploded in the air, which led to civilian casualties. As a result of aggression by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, four people were killed, 153 civilians were injured, 79 of them, including 27 children, were hospitalized.
As Regnum reported, the Ministry of Defense emphasized that the United States was also responsible for the attack on Sevastopol, since American specialists enter flight missions into ATACMS based on their own satellite data. The head of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Sergei Lavrov, also made allegations of Washington's involvement. He recalled that the United States, when supplying weapons to Kyiv, does not allow their use without the participation of American specialists.

Political scientist Denisov linked the silence of Western media with the information war against the Russian Federation
Moscow, June 24, 2024, 16:57 - IA Regnum. The Western media’s ignorance of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ attack on Sevastopol, which killed civilians, is associated with the information war of the collective Western countries against Russia. This opinion was expressed to a Regnum news agency correspondent on June 24 by Denis Denisov, a political scientist, director of the Institute of Peacemaking Initiatives and Conflictology, and an expert at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation.
Political scientist Denisov linked the silence of Western media with the information war against the Russian Federation
According to him, this is not a new situation and it is typical for a number of events that are of great importance for Russia, but do not receive coverage in the Western media. This is a characteristic of that “freedom of speech” that people in the collective Western countries love to talk about, the expert clarified.
For example, earlier in the West there was very little coverage of Ukrainian shelling of civilians in Donbass. Also, the Western media decided to suppress information about the torture of people in Mariupol by Ukrainian nationalists, because in their paradigm this cannot happen, Denisov explained.
“All this can be considered exclusively in the context of the information war of the collective Western countries against Russia. The censorship that exists in the United States and some other European countries is much stricter than in countries that are considered countries with limited freedom of speech. The only way to counter this is with the truth. It is necessary to convey truthful information to Western audiences, overcoming all restrictions and prohibitions,” the political scientist noted.
As reported by IA Regnum, earlier the American journalist Julia Kanin wrote on the social network X that the Western media were silent after the attack of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Sevastopol.
On the afternoon of June 23, Ukrainian troops fired five US-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles with cluster warheads at Sevastopol. Air defense forces intercepted four missiles, but the detonation of the fragmentation warhead of the fifth American missile in the air led to numerous casualties among civilians in Sevastopol.
The Russian Ministry of Defense emphasized that the United States, which supplied the Kyiv regime with missiles, bears responsibility for the attack. At the same time, flight missions in ATACMS are entered by American specialists based on their own satellite reconnaissance data, the Ministry of Defense added.
Director of the Sevastopol Health Department Vitaly Denisov said that the number of victims of the Ukrainian Armed Forces missile attack in Sevastopol has increased to 153. Denisov added that at the moment 79 victims of the Ukrainian Armed Forces attack have been hospitalized, this number includes 27 children.
Earlier, the governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhaev, said that three of the four killed as a result of the Ukrainian army’s attack on the city were local residents and another arrived from another region of Russia.
On June 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed deep condolences to the relatives of those killed on June 23 in Sevastopol.
According to the press secretary of the head of state, Dmitry Peskov, the Russian leader is in constant contact with the security bloc, with doctors and gives them all the necessary instructions.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called the attack by Ukrainian troops on Sevastopol a ritual crime. She noted that it was no coincidence that Kyiv chose the holiday of the Orthodox Trinity for this.

[BBC] A gang of cyber criminals causing huge disruption to multiple London hospitals has published sensitive patient data stolen from an NHS blood testing company.
Overnight on Thursday, Qilin shared almost 400GB of the private information on their darknet site.
The gang has been trying to extort money from NHS provider Synnovis since they hacked the firm on 3 June.
Cyber security expert Ciaran Martin told the BBC it was "one of the most significant and harmful cyber attacks ever in the UK."
A sample of the data seen by the BBC includes patient names, dates of birth, NHS numbers and descriptions of blood tests. It is not known if test results are also in the data.
The hack has also resulted in more than 3,000 hospital and GP appointments and operations being disrupted.
Mr Martin, ex-head of the National Cyber Security Centre and now a professor at Oxford University, told the BBC Radio 4's World at One programme it could be several months before systems were restored.
Qilin previously told the BBC they would publish the data unless they got paid.
There are also business account spreadsheets detailing financial arrangements between hospitals and GP services and Synnovis.
NHS England told the BBC it was aware of the publication but could not be completely sure the shared data was real.
"We understand that people may be concerned by this and we are continuing to work with Synnovis, the National Cyber Security Centre and other partners to determine the content of the published files as quickly as possible," it said.
The ransomware hackers infiltrated the computer systems of the company, which is used by two NHS trusts in London, and encrypted vital information making IT systems useless.
As is often the case with these gangs, they also downloaded as much private data as they could to further extort the company for a ransom payment in Bitcoin.
It is not known how much money the hackers demanded from Synnovis or if the company entered negotiations. But the fact Qilin has published some, potentially all, of the data means they did not pay.
Law enforcement agencies around the world regularly urge victims of ransomware not to pay as it fuels the criminal enterprise and does not guarantee that the criminals will do as they promise.
Ransomware expert Brett Callow, from Emsisoft, said healthcare organisations were increasingly being targeted as the hackers knew that they could cause a lot of harm and sometimes get a big pay day.
“Cybercriminals go where the money is and, unfortunately, the money is in attacking the healthcare sector. And since United Health Group reportedly paid a $22m (£17.3m) ransom earlier this year, the sector is more squarely in the crosshairs than ever before,” he said.
On Tuesday night, Qilin spoke to the BBC on an encrypted messaging service and said they had deliberately targeted Synnovis as a way to punish the UK for not helping enough in an unspecified war.
Mr Martin described that claim as "absolute garbage" and said their aims were "entirely financial."
The gang, like many ransomware crews, is thought to be based in Russia, but told the BBC it could not be more specific about its political allegiance or geography "for security reasons".
On their darknet site, they also have stolen data from other healthcare organisations, as well as schools, companies and councils from around the world.
"I think this is probably one of the most significant cyber attacks on the NHS," said Saira Ghafur, an expert in healthcare cyber security at Imperial College London.
"This will all have quite a severe impact in the delivery of patient care, which we'll see impacted for an ongoing couple of weeks," she told World at One.
