Russian athlete Denis Vovk set a new world record at a train station in St. Petersburg. He successfully pulled a 650-ton train 1.48 meters in just 37 seconds, surpassing his previous feat of moving it half a meter. Using specially prepared ropes and a mechanism, Vovk’s record-breaking attempt was closely watched by performance trainers and journalists. Russian officials plan to submit all evidence to the Guinness Book of Records for verification. In a statement, Vovk expressed his desire to attempt pulling submarines in his next challenge.
Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets after Friday prayers to protest Israel’s recent attacks on the country. The largest gatherings occurred in the capital, Tehran, where demonstrators marched following prayers at Tehran University.
High-ranking officials, including Iran’s Constitutional Court head Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei and former IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, joined the protest. Participants waved Iranian, Palestinian, and resistance group flags, and trampled on Israeli and US flags laid on the ground.
Protesters held banners reading “Down with Israel”, “Down with the US”, and “The Zionist regime will be destroyed”, while chanting slogans such as “We stand behind our leader”, “Everyone who clashed with Khamenei will eventually be destroyed”, and “Our right to nuclear weapons”.
