Students from the Moscow Police College, as part of the Moscow team "Shield and Sword 77," took prizes in the individual categories of the all-Russian military-patriotic game "Zarnitsa 2.0." This was reported by the press service of the Moscow Police College. Department of Education and ScienceThe final stage of the competition took place from September 5 to 23 in the Volgograd region at the Avangard camp.
Igor Ivanov and Ksenia Napletkova took first place in the UAV operator category, Pavel Kashtanov took second place in the sapper category, and Konstantin Chebotar took third place in the commander category.
Additionally, as part of the "Oka" army, the participants won the game's final battle, beating out nearly 500 young men and women from the older age group (including departmental and foreign teams). Moscow was represented by the "Zhukov Guard" team from School No. 1409. The team's training was supervised by Ivan Bondyukov, a supplementary education teacher, director of the "Vershina" military-patriotic education center, and a participant in the special military operation.
"We prepared for the game long and hard, approaching every stage seriously and training diligently. The guys probably found the most challenging work with unmanned aerial vehicles the most challenging—it's a fairly new and specific area. Furthermore, passing the tactical medical tests was challenging: navigating the battlefield and providing appropriate assistance in yellow, green, and red zones. But the more we trained, the better we got. The commander strategized effectively, and each participant gave their all, performing their actions precisely and smoothly," said Ivan Bondyukov.
This year, over 20,000 Muscovites took part in the all-Russian military-patriotic game "Zarnitsa 2.0," competing in four age categories. For the first time, a special category was added for college students aged 18 to 21.
To reach the finals, teams had to overcome several stages: qualifying, municipal, regional, district, and national. At each stage, participants demonstrated drill, firearms, and tactical training, first aid skills, knowledge of Russian history, and athletic prowess.
The finalists competed in tactical medicine, firearms training, radiation, chemical, and biological defense, and other disciplines. Each participant completed tasks in their chosen specialty—from medic and commander to war correspondent and drone operator.
In addition, a special program was organized for the children, which included meetings with Russian heroes, excursions, and film screenings dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory.
"Zarnitsa 2.0" is the flagship project of the "Movement of the First," which helps young people learn the fundamentals of military affairs and master modern digital technologies. Other organizers include the "Yunarmiya" movement, the "Voin" center for military-sports training and patriotic education of youth, and the All-Russian Student Rescue Corps.
