Rebirth Island. Aralsk-7 (Remastered)
You may sponsor the creation of new videos via: ,
Voz Island (Ostrov Vozrozhdeniya, which translates as Rebirth Island or Renaissance Island), was an island in the Aral Sea. The former island's territory is split between Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
In the 1960s, the island began to grow in size as the Aral Sea began drying up as the Soviet Union dammed its feeder rivers for agricultural projects. The shrinkage of the Aral continued and accelerated over time. Vozrozhdeniya became a peninsula in mid-2001 when the channel to its south dried up completely and became a land bridge. Upon the disappearance of the Southeast Aral Sea in 2008, Vozrozhdeniya became technically indistinguishable from the surrounding land.
From 1942 to 1992, a military biochemical testing site with the code name “Barkhan” (sand-dune) operated on the island. Official name: 52nd Field Research Laboratory (PNIL-52). By the end of 1949, a runway was equipped on the island, allowing it to receive military transport aircraft. 3 km east, the town of Kantubek (Aralsk-7) grew up, consisting of two- and three-story barracks and residential buildings for the families of scientific personnel and personnel of the military unit of the chemical forces. The headquarters building was located in the center of the town. On the outskirts there were parks of special military and automotive equipment. The population of the town was up to 1,500 inhabitants. 3 km southwest of Kantubek there was built a laboratory complex - buildings and structures for preparing and conducting tests in laboratory conditions. Biological (bacteriological) weapons were tested on experimental animals (dogs, monkeys, rats, horses). Samples of drugs for biological testing were supplied to the island from all military biochemical laboratories of the USSR (Stepnogorsk, Kirov, Sverdlovsk-19, Omutninsk, Zagorsk-6, Obolensk).
After the Soviet Union dissolved, the idea of mass destruction lost its relevance. In october - november 1992, the military contingent (along with their families) was redeployed to Russia, the biological laboratory was dismantled, documentation and part of the equipment were taken out, the rest was abandoned on the island and over time Aralsk-7 was gradually destroyed until it was completely demolished by order of the government of Uzbekistan around 2020.

Юрья́ — посёлок городского типа в Кировской области, административный центр Юрьянского муниципального района. Образует Юрьянское городское поселение, единственным населённым пунктом которого является.
Посёлок возник в связи со строительством железной дороги «Вятка—Котлас» в 1899 году. До 1958 году Юрья входила в состав Ивановского сельсовета. В 1958 году присвоен статус рабочего посёлка. В 1963 году посёлок стал центром Юрьянского района, выделенного из Мурашинского в границах существовавшего ранее Верховинского района. В 1996 году решением Кировской областной Думы Юрья отнесена к посёлкам городского типа.
