In Russia, thousands of North Korean workers are being forced to work in harsh conditions in construction, factory, and manufacturing sectors to address labor shortages. This was reported by Zamin.uz. According to South Korean intelligence, Russia plans to recruit up to 50,000 workers from North Korea to alleviate labor shortages caused by the Ukraine war. In 2024, more than 13,000 Korean workers were brought into Russia, most of whom entered through "student visas." This is being viewed as a method to circumvent the sanctions imposed by the UN. Escaped workers have reported being forced to work more than 18 hours a day, having only two days off throughout the year, and living in cold and unsanitary accommodations. They are under the control of North Korean security personnel, with almost no opportunities to go outside. There have also been cases where injured workers were forced to continue working. Experts believe this system represents a significant financial resource for North Korea. The main income of the workers is sent back to Pyongyang, leaving them with only 100-200 USD per month. This money is given upon their return to their homeland, further reducing the chances of escape. According to South Korean sources, the number of workers fleeing from Russia is decreasing: while this number was 20 in 2022, it has dropped to 10 in 2024. Observers note that this situation may intensify as a result of the political rapprochement between the two countries.

Former famous football player Vladimir Bystrov expressed his opinion on the proposed reform to introduce a salary cap in the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Previously, journalist Ivan Karpov also provided information about this news. According to Bystrov, it is necessary to think carefully before implementing such a change. He stated that it is difficult to understand how to implement such a system in Russian football. Because it is not right to apply the same salary cap for both strong clubs and teams with fewer resources. Bystrov believes that it is well known to everyone that there are many ways to circumvent such restrictions in the current situation. The expert added that the most beneficial way for Russian football is to direct club funds towards nurturing young players and developing academies. This is crucial for the future of football. Currently, the "Lokomotiv" team is leading in the Russian Premier League.

The former player of Moscow's CSKA team and now a football specialist, Aleksandr Grishin, expressed his opinion about the emotionally charged actions of Moscow Spartak's head coach Dejan Stankovich during the game. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to Grishin, Stankovich gets very nervous during the game, and this situation affects the entire team. The coach's nervousness transfers to the players, resulting in the team losing its focus during the match. Seeing the coach's mental state, the players become uncertain in their own game. This negatively impacts the flow of the game. It should be noted that in the fourth round of the Russian championship, the Moscow Spartak team lost 2:4 away to the Lokomotiv team. After this defeat, Stankovich's disciples are in 11th place in the tournament table with four points. The team needs to undertake serious work to improve their results.

This amount is approximately equivalent to 32 thousand dollars. This information is based on the research titled "High-Income Russians: Status Consumption and Consumption Preferences" by NIU VSHE.

Today, September 7, a rare astronomical event — a total lunar eclipse — will occur in the sky over Uzbekistan. This was reported by Zamin.uz. According to the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences, this event will be clearly visible from all regions of our country.

The total phase of the eclipse will last 1 hour and 22 minutes, but the entire process will take more than 5 hours. This event will be observed not only in Uzbekistan but also in several countries across Eurasia and Africa. Specifically, the total lunar eclipse can be seen in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Arab countries, as well as Pakistan, India, China, South and North Korea, Malaysia, Vietnam, Laos. The central regions of Russia, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia, Japan, and some parts of Australia will also experience the Moon fully in shadow. Europe, the Philippines, Hawaii, Fiji, and New Zealand will observe a partial eclipse. The exact times of the lunar eclipse in Uzbekistan are as follows: the partial eclipse begins at 21:27 Tashkent time, the total phase starts at 22:30, reaches its peak at 23:11, the total phase ends at 23:52, and the partial phase concludes on September 8 at 00:56.

The Russian Federal Medical-Biological Agency (FMBA) has completed the necessary studies of a new mRNA vaccine against cancer and submitted the documents for its registration. This was reported by Upl.uz. This paves the way for the clinical use of the vaccine. The head of the agency, Veronika Skvortsova, recently provided this information in an interview with the publication "Izvestiya". According to her, the authorization documents for the use of the drug named "Enteromix" were submitted to the Ministry of Health at the end of summer 2025. This process was carried out after extensive preclinical trials, which confirmed the safety and efficacy of the drug. The development of this vaccine is part of a broader initiative to create personalized medicines. The drug, based on mRNA technology, aims to create a vaccine tailored to the characteristics of tumor cells unique to each patient. Studies were conducted on animals, particularly models suffering from intestinal adenocarcinoma. The results showed that the drug not only slowed tumor growth but also reduced its size by 75-80 percent. As Veronika Skvortsova emphasized, three years of research on this vaccine have been successfully completed, and its application in patients is planned in the near future following regulatory approval. Initially, patients with colorectal cancer will undergo this therapy, which will later be adapted for the most aggressive brain tumors such as melanoma and glioblastoma. Alongside advances in the field of cancer diseases, Russia is also achieving significant success in neuroprosthetics. Veronika Skvortsova noted that work is underway to make prosthetics sensitive by implanting microelectrodes into nerve endings. This direction is being developed through collaboration between the FMBA's Brain and Neurotechnology Center and the company "Motorika". This center has gained the status of a scientific center worldwide and has been provided with the appropriate grant. The process consists of several stages, ranging from eliminating phantom pain to preparing prosthetics using virtual reality and making them sensitive. To ensure wider access to these technologies, a network of specialized medical institutions is planned to be established. By 2027, it is planned to open ten new prosthetics and rehabilitation centers in various regions of the country, including Primorsky Krai. These centers will be based on the model of the first center operating in the village of Goluboye near Moscow. The mRNA technology underlying the new Russian vaccine gained worldwide recognition during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, its potential for treating cancer has been studied by scientists for decades. In the mid-1990s, the first successful experiments were conducted in mice to induce an immune response against cancer cells using mRNA.

Apple presented its new flagship smartphones, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max models, in September. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Now there are full 48-megapixel main, ultra-wide, and telephoto cameras. The telephoto camera offers 8x optical zoom, as well as 4x mode and 3D stabilization functionality. The front camera is 18 megapixels and equipped with Center Stage technology. Additionally, video recording in ProRes RAW format has been added, which is an important innovation for those engaged in video editing.
