From his injuries, the 50-year-old Lada driver died at the scene before medics arrived. There were three people in the foreign-made car at the time of the accident: the driver, born in 1980, and two passengers, one of whom was a four-month-old baby. All of them sustained injuries of varying severity. Rescue services note that serious consequences for the infant were avoided thanks to the fact that he was secured in a special child restraint device that had been installed correctly. At present, law enforcement officers are working at the scene and determining all the circumstances of the incident.

      Traditions, prohibitions and the wisdom of ancestors on this day — what the old calendar advises for your well‑being.

      October 15 is celebrated as Kupriyan’s Day, a holiday dedicated to two Orthodox holy martyrs — Kupriyan (Cyprian) and Ustinya (Justina). These saints were considered protectors against witchcraft and evil spirits. People believed that if one did not offer a prayer to the saints on this day, one could become a victim of demons.

      Weather omens for October 15

      There were many weather signs associated with Kupriyan’s Day. It was believed that if the weather was clear on this day, clouds would not appear in the sky for several more weeks. Here are some other signs:

      - If the wind blows from the north — expect early frosts.

      - If the wind is from the south — the warmth will last a little longer.

      - Frost on the grass — frosts will come soon.

      - If flies still haven’t gone to sleep — it will be warm.

      - If a halo is visible around the Moon — the weather will soon turn bad.

      What can be done on October 15

      By mid-October heavy leaf fall usually began, and peasants on this day planted vegetables for the winter so that the leaves would cover the seedlings. It is also recommended to:

      - Protect the home from evil forces: say a protective prayer and sprinkle water in the corners of the house.

      - Watch the behavior of animals: domestic pets notice unclean forces first.

      - Take up domestic handicrafts (for example, knit mittens) or do small repairs.

      - Spend the evening with family: have dinner together and discuss matters.

      What is forbidden on October 15

      On this day it is especially important to avoid sinful deeds and conflicts, because demons choose their victims among drunks and foul‑mouthed people. It is forbidden to:

      - Quarrel with or hurt others.

      - Consume alcohol — it attracts devils.

      - Wear bright clothing — it may attract the attention of evil forces.

      - Leave the house carrying a large sum of money.

      - Let strangers into the house.

      - Make promises that will be difficult to keep.

      By observing the traditions of Kupriyan’s Day, you can protect yourself and your loved ones from evil spirits and attract only positive energies into your life.
