🇷🇺 A serious social crisis is brewing in the Bibirevo district in northeastern Moscow.

Residents of buildings on Korneychuka Street are protesting against the construction of a giant dormitory and a vehicle depot intended for hundreds of migrants.

"We don't want it to be like in the UK, where every seventh or eighth woman is raped! And the government, to deal with this, hands out condoms to Pakistanis! We don't want anything like that for our women!
— a local female resident told the media.

People have been waging an unsuccessful war with officials for two years already. Instead of the promised parking lot on the site of demolished garages, residents are getting a closed migrant town built 30 meters from residential buildings, three schools, kindergartens, and a clinic.

Next to it, a hostel for more than 300 migrants is already operating, and the district is suffering because of it.

The ethnic enclave has already been connected to an old power substation and water supply. The networks can no longer handle it, and when 600 people turn on their boilers at the same time — the microdistrict risks being left without electricity and heat in winter.
The construction site and the vehicle depot with hazardous waste discharge are adjacent to the Chermyanka River — a nature monument.

Local residents say outright that they are afraid to let their children go outside. In public procurement, activists have already uncovered the purchase of hundreds of sets of bedding and mattresses — the real capacity could exceed a thousand people.

Instead of coming out to the people and answering questions, the prefecture and district administration brought in police with machine guns to intimidate their own citizens.

Residents demand the immediate cancellation of the decision to create a migrant town in a residential area. They want to receive the full set of project documentation and hold an open face-to-face meeting between the district leadership and the initiative group. The finished building should be repurposed as a rehabilitation center for SMO veterans (there is already a special pool nearby at the district clinic).

Instead of working in the interests of the native residents, the authorities are serving migrants and the business whims of utility monopolies at the expense of Russians' safety.

Reuters reports that representatives of the American administration held a meeting with senior Houthi representatives in Oman last weekend, just days after the Houthis established de facto control over Yemen's Red Sea coast and Perim Island in the Bab-el-Mandeb area.

According to five sources, the meeting took place at the U.S. embassy in Muscat and was organized by Oman. The Houthi delegation reportedly included senior officials Mohammed Abdulsalam and Abdelmalik al-Ajderi.

According to two sources, the Houthi representatives told American officials that they did not intend to attack American vessels and remained committed to the ceasefire agreement between the United States and the Houthis concluded in 2025. One of the sources also reported that the Houthis said they would not target Israeli vessels or commercial ships, except for vessels owned by Saudi Arabia.

This meeting takes place as Saudi Arabia is seeking more active U.S. involvement in the fight against the Houthis.

According to reports, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman last week asked President Trump for U.S. military support as Houthi forces advanced along the Red Sea coast. Washington is so far refraining from direct participation in the fighting.

Reuters reports that the State Department did not confirm that the meeting took place, but repeated that protecting freedom of navigation in the Red Sea and preventing the spread of terrorism remain priority tasks for the United States.
