Kitten and biography
Born on February 7. Russian military correspondent. Known as military commander of a kitten. Yuri Kitten was born on February 7. Father - Peter Rodionovich Kitten, military journalist. Yuri followed in the footsteps of his father. Until a year, he studied at the Higher Military-Political School in Lviv at the Faculty of Military Journalism. After the collapse of the USSR, he refused to accept Ukrainian oath.
He recalled: “We were divided into Ukrainians and non -shafts, the latter did not give out weapons, having deprived the guard service, we were not opposed. Most importantly, we were not guaranteed any prospects for graduation from the school, advising to contact the Ministry of Defense of the republics of the former USSR, which we did. ” He had to go to Moscow, there to take final exams in the 4th year and receive officer ranks.
He began the military correspondent by the lieutenant in the newspaper of the Moscow Military District "Red Warrior" the newspaper Military, well -known and respected in military circles - Trotsky signed its first issue of the year.
In the first Chechen campaign, his first business trip was held. In the year, he was signed by the Khasavyurt truce. He served twenty -three and a half years in the power structures of Russia. Veteran of hostilities. Lieutenant Colonel of the reserve. He visited dozens of “hot spots”. He worked as part of one of the detachments of the Chechen special forces in Tskhinval. From the year he worked in the weekly “Shield and Sword”.
The editor -in -chief of the network edition "Today. RU ”, IA“ Analytical Service of Donbass ”. From the year he developed a channel on YouTube, which was subsequently blocked. After blocking, I created a channel on RUTUBE. Its main platform was Telegram. At the end of the year, Yuri Kotenok was injured in Artsakh during the strike of the Azerbaijani drone at the temple of St. Christ of the Almighter in Shushi.
The kitten himself spoke about the circumstances of the incident: “We and the prosecutors of Russia and the Putsk Corner of the Russian portal Levon Arzanov and Grant Baladian, who accompanied us, went to Karabakh to cover the military events in this region. In the morning after Goris, where we stopped for the night, we drove towards Stepanakert. We drove Berdzor. They photographed the bridge on which strikes were struck.
Already on the way they learned what happened in the temple of Kazanchets, so they could not but call. The city was almost empty because enemy drones hung over it. But the temple stood people. Having met and talked with the abbot of the cathedral, Father Andreas, they entered the church to put candles and shoot. They waited for people to come to see: even in the wounded temple, Vera was alive.
The next instant was a blow. Yes, I claim that we were beaten aimed for us. We were tracked on mobile communications, although Moscow numbers were clearly displayed. The operator directed the controlled shell very carefully to the hole of the first shot. I was thrown out by an explosive wave by four meters, filled up with shops and bricks as the doctors later said, I lost about four liters of blood.
I was taken to the hospital in Stepanakert. On bombed roads, shaking was especially unbearable in every cell of the body. The deacon was driving me and, reading prayers, said: “Just do not be silent. Just do not fall asleep. " And I felt that I was dying. As a believer, he also began to pray, screaming prayers in full voice. The last thing that remains conscious is the court of the Stepanakert Hospital.
And he opened his eyes already in the Yerevan medical center "Erebuni". As it turned out, I underwent a number of operations in Stepanakert, where a brigade of surgeons pulled me out of the other world, among whom - the doctor of medical sciences, surgeon of the Moscow Institute of Emergency named after Sklifosovsky Shagen Danielyan. Then Yerevan doctors worked at me.
All this time I was in a coma, but I constantly felt that I was hanging between life and death. ” After the injury, he had to develop the muscles of the legs and back. Actively covered the events related to the special military operation of Russia in Ukraine. His Telegram channel is included in the TOP of the Russian segment on the citation index. In my opinion, there is a certain injustice in the fact that now the military has appeared, as they say, at least a dime a dozen.
But the military university is not only a couple of stand -ups against the background of trenches, after which many call themselves professionals. It turns out that every person who has at least once went to the front line and who was given a couple of times, he already considers himself a military commissar. They are deeply mistaken, I dare to upset them. Militaryor is a special profession, a slightly different state.
I was trained at a military school in the specialization of "Military Journalism". Therefore, I know how important it is during the fighting to understand where to be and what to do. The military unit should not become a headache for the commander who thinks not only about the safety of his personnel, but also about the film crew located in his order. Otherwise, someone will be forced to cover journalists with his bodies.
The military university is a very responsible and very risky profession, ”said Yuri Kitten.Personal life of Yuri Kotenka: Last updating of information: When quoting and using materials, a link to Stuki-Druki-Druki-Drucies.
