[000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the russia condemned ukraine and its main sponsor of the united states during an emergency you and security council session of were deadly attacked on a plane carrying prisoners of war. multiple sets key of steps that nothing when it comes to sub in the west view training leadership was well aware of the route and method of transporting soldiers to the place of this pre agreed exchange. the fact that it is ready to sacrifice any number of its own citizens for western geo political interest is no secret to anyone in your brain. as applied for quarters of the down i, l 7, the sink, the solve a strong, the crush sides. preliminary findings of the russian investigative committed points

to an antique craft in this sol, nordstrom, ukraine, that destroys the jets. this is territory which you pay and sacrifice tens of thousands of soldiers thousands of times. um it puts it out carry on with cards uh, 2 to 2 days to retake, to conquer file. to reports on front line developments where ukrainian troops meet the russian forces as he has to retreat its notice game left behind all totally unacceptable. back to the united nations reactions. one is really surprised that a you and shelter in gauze were 12. people were killed, units of says, nations around the world need to come together and pull for on and to the violence beneath the international community to step up and take their uh,

take their responsibilities and defending children rights and really cool for a ceasefire. the welcome everyone. this is our to international life. from us go, i do show a josh top stores the salad, your grains attack on a russian military plane carrying presents a war was a premeditated crime. that's the message sent by russia's deputy ambassador to the you and during any emergency session of the security council, according to demetria, probably on skid. this shows just how far kids is willing to go to south western interest a see me see. so let's see what you've done with all the data we have today indicates that we are dealing with a deliberate premeditated crime. ukrainian leadership was well aware of the route and method of transporting soldiers to the place of that pre agreed exchange with these monstrous actions. the zalinski regime, if of course,

it still has at least some control over the actions of its militants, has once again shown its inhumane nature. incompletes incompetence to the fact that it is ready to sacrifice any number of its own citizens for western geo political interest is no secret to anyone in ukraine. a meeting of the un security council was convenience to discuss the recent downing of an aircraft that contained the number of ukrainian prisoners of war were headed for a prisoner swamp. now, at the meeting, the russian delegation question, why it took the french government, which is currently acting as the president of the security council, the 15 member body that leads the un. why it took them so long to organize this meet it. russia had wanted to hold an emergency meeting in the direct aftermath of the incident. however, there was a delay. now, frances said, this is merely a procedure of concern. however,

it appeared to the russian representatives. and this was yet another example of the western countries trying to shield the key of government from any criticism or revelations of its now practices and a negative activities to you. some us have no doubt that our western colleagues will also practice verbal expressions today with the sole purpose of protecting the public key of regime in any way. they as well as its leaders and kids do not care at all about the dead russians and ukrainians, who for the collective west are just 2nd class citizens and expand of old material and the geo political crusade against russia. today, western leaders are trying to convince their public for such a situation. this is a profitable investment and an attractive business project. the cynicism of such arguments is simply off the scale. the western sponsors of the criminal key ever seemed are fully responsible for its crimes. now the statements from the united states, the i ching them,

and other countries that are of in house to russia and backing ukraine, were rather short. they simply blamed the entire incident on russia saying that the war, the entire war was simply russia's fault. so the details of the actual incident in question did not seem to matter. later in the meeting, there was a rather harsh exchange between the ukrainian representatives and the russian. and basset or the ukraine representative made some pretty outrages claims doubting the presence of the po w's on the plane, etc. the russian deputy ambassador quickly took her to task years. the exchange russian propaganda was suspiciously fast into an slate to eastern statements about the shooting down of the rush, and i'll send it to 6 aircraft that had allegedly transported ukraine and peel lease. according to our military intelligence, only 5 bodies were sent to the local mark in belgrade, and no human remains are visible on views from the crash site. each month, just

a little quicker to my colleague who will show up in the apparently the instructions that my colleague received was to continue lying and protecting the key of regime. the lists were published and they were given to the ukranian side in accordance with the established procedure, as has been done many times so it is absolutely pointless to deny it. unlike the lists of the victims of the provocation in boucher, which we still cannot obtain and constantly inquire about. the meeting showed some very clear differences between the major countries represented on the council. and it also highlighted that while russia has put forward a pretty straightforward account of the events of what happened, how this lines was taken down, we don't have a very solve of answer from ukrainian figures or from western leaders. we're backing them. and the fact that it could have been us supplied or western supplied weapons that shot. now this airplane, still with prisoners of war,

forces many to raise questions about the continued morality and advocacy of the fund as government and you frame that continues to throw the lives of its citizens away. in a conflict with russia, a conflict that many say has already ended and is already pretty much over that's across now live to john list and political analysts generally. thank you so much for joining us. first of all, your queens here and security, and boy question the, a prison as a rule where i bought the down plane. why would the russian lie about this? you're at this point, you know, it's either you believe ukraine or you believe russia. so, you know, we are, we are all just shaking our heads, we don't have a and if it does, no, it has been no independent investigation. there will never be an independent investigation. so we have to decide, you know, who are you going to believe? i do not see a reason for russia to live about this the, the plane. if,

if it was there purely for military purposes, it would've been well protected by russian defense systems. the fact that it was just proceeding forward towards the ukraine border indicates that indeed it was carrying it was on a mission, a mandatory mission carrying ukraine. po w's for the exchange, as we've been told. so i think the, the evidence, the, at least again, from the point of view of myself as an analyst, i think with the information that i have available gives me reason to most likely, believe the russian side to us. and you can didn't say much about the strike at the security session. why do you think that is? well, as you know, the, the us and great britain have been doing everything possible to isn't that further like the plane to this conflict? right. in spring 2022, russia and ukraine on their own were close to coming to set up an agreement that

would have stopped this conflict with the us and the u. k. deliberately sabotaged those piece, talks and assemble. and since then, they've been doing everything possible to throw gasoline on the fire. we know about the attack that destroyed the, the pipeline, the gas pipeline to the baltic sea. as a good reason to believe that the u. s. was behind that the us, great britain in poland were involved with destroying that, that pipeline which was a terrorist attack for the worst terrorist attacks since up since, you know, in the past 30 years since 911 this 20 years, it was on the use of uncertainty unfortunately, i said is, of course, because i am an american citizen, but we constantly see that the us in great britain are sponsoring terrorism. they are sponsoring terrorism against russia and russian interest against the rest of the people. and this raise a tremendous questions. i mean, what do we do now? we the global community, what do we do now to us and in the u. k. okay. obviously they're great powers,

but they're supporters of terrorism. and according to international law, aren't we suppose to isolate states that support terrorism. me raises some very, very awkward questions. how does the global community she lives in deal further going forward with the, with the us and u. k. again, major sponsors of terrorism during this is another awkward question about to ask you, because this isn't the 1st time ukraine is launched, strikes kidding. its own military personnel, and july 2022 k of hit a detention center. and it didn't ask for public housing. ukrainian presidents of war, what does ukraine possibly have to gain from allegedly sacrifice, and it's old people. i mean, what's the big picture here? so, so we have to differentiate here between ukraine, ukraine, people, and of a generous, genuine criminal regime of baby, a few 100. maybe a few 1000 people were profiting enormously on this floor. they are receiving

billions of dollars from the west, from nato countries. obviously they, it's clear they have a financial interest in pro and keeping this, we're going prolonging the war. they looked at their people as just expendable raw material. we, i'm someone, i've worked many, many years with ukraine. so i'm speaking here for personal experience. i know how these, all god's works and things always look at the people as just cattle as an expendable mich, a raw material for profit. so don't you know, it's a, we have to really differentiate that they just, they have no concern with for other people whatsoever. and they will continue this more, even if it destroys the entire country. and if everyone would be wiped out, john the food for thought that thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us . john, listen, political analyst generally joining us there from new york. thank you for your thoughts. thank you. thank you. us. russian authorities of opened a criminal case into the downing of the military transport aircraft near the ukrainian border. the plane was carrying 65 ukrainian prisoners,

a war for an exchange with kids, which, when it is believed to have been struck by an anti aircraft missiles, launched by a cranium, forces flight recorders have been salvaged from the wreckage. everyone on board including 9 russian crew members with killed in the crash. a local church held a memorial service with those killed in the crash and many attended to pay tribute to the russian crew nichol. i work mister se. then after being struck the plain stairway from a nearby town ultimate be saving lives, we spoke the wife of one of the navigators over at cross alexei bicycle, and she told us how she felt on that fateful day. she was awarded the master off metal, the most important metal and aviation, and one of the most important in russia. but i can't say to what degree he's a veteran of combat operations and syria and he works in the cause of stone. i knew about this flight, i 1st heard about it on the news. i hoped he'd been on board the other plan,

the one that was turned around, but i realized it was him because he would always let me know when he was taking off and landing this time. there were no messages from him for a long time. i mean, i knew it was him, but i didn't want to believe it. i hope that he had been on board another plane and just couldn't get in touch. my husband is from was coming. of course, a region in eastern cause i started, we had been married since 2005, and we have 2 daughters and 11 and a 14 year old. they already know about what happened. my husband was a real man. he was a great husband and father, i always felt safe with him, hiding behind my stone walls. he was very supporters, and he had very good judgment. he never deceived any one, and he lived by his morals. he loved flying, he loved his. it was $76.00 aircraft, although he started flying on another type of aircraft. they had several types in the regiment to. so we had to retrain for the l 76 to 3 different kinds of plans for the joiner. we sold the center of a very truly belgrade in russia,

so it's kind of get belgrade, find yourself at the center of the news for another project. reason of course offerings at dozens of civilians killed here. uh, a new year about ukrainian, shelly, and yesterday in a town about an hour east of here at $74.00 people lost their lives when a russian illusion $76.00 heavy transport plane crashed after being apparently struck by a ukrainian system. now dmitri past costs has confirmed that there were warnings made to the ukraine's and that there were a notifications made to view craney and military that this flight was going to take place. there were 2 planes in the flight. yes, this attack still went ahead. now there's also been an investigation. i opened by the russian invest of committee at the site. now we spent a day talking to people in the village. the main sense there is one a shock,

but also one of great tanks for these pilots bravery. several people told us that they saw this giant plain dissolution 76, and it's very important that the viewers understand the scale of this machine weighs over 77000 kilos. and only that was heavily laden with fuel and it's cargo of ukrainian p o w, as when it was stopped by ukrainian air defense smith. so close to the village deposits, apparently steered away from that, crushing directly into the village at his loud in the field. uh, just about a kilometer uh beyond. uh so there's a huge sense of shock there. and this all comes as a woman was targeted, a civilian that was targeted until by a drone here in the belgrade region and also. so it's a rock turning off. it seems of this violence against civilian populations on top of this terrible tragedy which we witnessed at its is also worth noting done in its yes, when this news 1st broke,

it was almost celebration of the downing of this heavy russian transport plane. when the news filtered out that it was carrying ukrainian prisoners of war, uh that the messaging seem to change quite considerably. so we'll keep you updated as this slowly develops here from belgrade cables or to the russian forces or re taking positions that the ukrainian military had secured during tips previous counter offensive, or senior correspondent with broadcast. you have reports a little distance away from, from the front lines of the very short distance away from the other above boy. yeah . which is near a bunch of that. and one of the main directions of the you create the counter offensive failed counter offensive over the summer and never the less the credit for it says here, but able to penetrate some kilometers into russian defense as part of the dragon's teeth. the now famous will for you create infamous drag and sleep defensive lie,

the 1st russian defense of line. we were here instead of a voya during the summer offensive through uh autumn. we saw you credit in vehicles putting by the dozen uh everyday. now, a weird situation where do you credit and sadly of the credit, an offense, if it has been reversed, they gave the russian troops or a me, a 500 meters away from closing those defensive defensive lines up again, this is russian, apple and troops as well as special operations forces, we could also tell you that you can is indeed running short of especially large got heavy kyla, but a large caliber tillery shelves with seed more and more se drugs kindly call g drones being used by you create an attempt to uh, to compensate for the shortage in heavier um, well also hearing from fight this here that there are much you are you pregnant? so just uh, minding positions,

trenches of firing positions here on the front lines. which again, speaks of a, uh, a manpower shortage among you credit invoices. but this is indeed a remarkable, robust will suit quickly for russian forces to have reclaimed so much territory. many, many thousands of square kilometers kids that are bubble up. and i'll go to the low, this is territory which you can sacrifice tens of thousands of soldiers, thousands of times solid personnel carriers um would cause uh, a $2.00 to $2.00 days to retake to comcast. and this is, will uh reverse. at this point that me a 500 meters left for russia to close up the salad. uh, the 2 crate achieved over some of the calendar insides of alabama. i said to execute its 1st death penalty inmates by nitrogen gas asphyxiation, a new method. the state intends to promote as a less complicated substitute for me,

for injection. i'm a little make us authorized nitrogen hypoxia as an execution method in 2018. that's after legal challenges. a legend that condemned people had remained a way can do relief for injections. held up by the state's ability to carry out death sentences, the method works by depriving the brain of oxygen and replacing it with nitrogen. an odor less gas that makes up 78 percent of the us at the most fat but is late. so when he inhaled on its own, but you, any human rights office argues that this method may cause severe pain and suffering can estimate, was sentenced to death for his role in a mother for high up plot. in 1988, it was convicted of capital murder, but the court ordered his case to be retired because the prosecution had legally dismissed black to us at a 2nd trial. and by tonight to fix the jury,

voted 11 to one just best mates life and sentence him to life without parole. because judicial override was legal in alabama until 2017. the judge was able to quash the jewish recommendation and sentenced him to death. what a story let's course now live to international attorney, klein, preston joining us from nashville, tennessee historic execution. what might say, how have americans been reacting to this? well, it depends on which side of the, uh, the base you you are on. if you're about inside the solar you, of course this is terrific because the one this is the 1st time that this type of execution has been try what the deprivation of, uh, uh, oxygen and with the, with the nitrogen. and so, you know, there are a lot of people that are against it. the,

the countries pretty much split on the issue of whether your pro capital punishment or anti capital punishment. but spices say there's, there's no general consensus on it. and this exclusion should be problematic. because it's going to be administered through a gas mask or oxygen mass. and those are experts say that in solution in order to um, you know, use for the deprivation of oxygen, the nitrogen deprivation. so this is a, uh, it's going to be debated this year. i think for some time, it's all american affiliated organization appealed to all obama to hold the planned execution, saying the method is barbaric. yes, it is an uncivilized. what's your take on that? well, you know, if it falls under the 8 the member of the united states constitution,

whether you can employed meetings that are cruel or unusual, and that's where the debate arises. it is the same rule or on your punishment. and that goes to whether or not the person is being executed, suffers and is cautious while they're suffering. and there are a lot of criteria that the course go by, none of which it's are empirical. and so this being the, the 1st time would there be no test runs on a live human in the united states on this i anticipate this being the problematic and it very well could basis or hasn't been a while this has been run. this could be in violation of. ready united states postage. and so from a legal standpoint, you do think that this method could indeed be cruel and unusual punishment. yes, in this, in alabama for instance, one of the gentleman,

the gentleman who was being executed, one of his friends using leaf on jackson, they attempted to, um, execute him years ago. and they had to see substitution because they're all they will find a uh, a vein um, in which to administer promptly. and so they did a test for almost 2 out of to execute the gentleman and they were successful in the head. the whole thing, excuse me, at that time. and so this person, this man suffered, you know, was going through the, this execution just continued on and off. and i suspect perhaps some problems here because it's only, it's only been administered through a, an oxygen mask. and so they're all types of problems box, the mass for the like, fully fix the face. and so if the, if oxygen is, is let in,

while the nitrogen is also being pumped in and that will dilute the non margin. and so you know that the problem. busy prolonged separate by this, this man is, is very real. and so it's a single reco, some of you to. so go ahead and have an execution done in this matter in an instance where the method has not been proved. before we go on, i just want to know if the death penalty is still, carrier is the kind of veterans it used to carry back in the day against crimes. would you say that as as a lawyer? no, there's no guitars at all. i mean, when you look at this man committed or was initially too big in 1999 and we're sitting here in 2024. and they're, they're gonna be attempting is execution or perhaps they'll succeed. but can we execute in 2024. what kind of the terms that i mean the death penalty is not a good turner and, and, and there are plenty of studies. here's united states to show that. and one of the

main reasons is because uh, because of the cost social challenges you cannot have to the definitely and the duration of time it takes to run these challenges through our dual courses. we have the state federal court system that most of these uh, the policies go through the diag won't age often times on death row before you die from the penalty of execution. so it's not turned at all and some will say that defeats the purpose. then thank you, international attorney, client, preston. thank you for speaking. talk to international absolutely. let's take you together now with the you in as reported an attack on his training center, where at least 800 displays typical home in the southern city of ton unit is it says a pair of idea of tags capability. the israel denies culpability. the one says, 12 people with killed in that attack, while many others were wounded. the you in special repertoire for palestine took to

his social media handles the demand that is real, being held accountable for this incident. why blocking a to stopping people? because this is what apartheid, the organic byproduct of secular colonialism looks like. segregation and depression pushed to the extreme, ordering trapped people to evacuate and bombing them before they can even do so. is kind of us, yes. and it is also a series, international crime punishable under the rooms statute of the international criminal court. and so the latest casualties stands at over 25000 people according to gather officials, since the beginning of october, 11th, thousands of children, 11000 have been killed. that's way more than the number of children killed in was in iraq, afghanistan, and even young men, and nearly equal to the number of kids could killed in syria over the course of 11

years. almost. so those who are surviving the war and got so doing so in such a safe haven with the wind saying that nearly 892 percent of residents have been displaced every day, brings new casualties. according to the numbers of 1000 children in 1000, all killed every 10 days added up from a daily told of 100 years of their lives. we'll discuss the situation with unicef, communications officer selling always sewage nga is becoming more than catastrophic. it's. it's a really handle for to and then not right now. there's no where to go. that's i think that's the problem. the biggest problem and then goes i and what sets it apart from other conflicts. maybe 1900000 people have been internally displaced. those people are living in a very crowded,

a shelters and very crowded areas, and they're being pushed even more to, to, to lesser and smaller areas. and this creates a real risk for diseases, but also for, for increased needs in general, for water, for sanitation as well. uh, the musical help that we are seeing and know in, in guys i'm in georgia now and it's practically the same weather as in the state of palestine. it's winter and we don't see that. we've seen a lot of green in the past days. you can imagine how that affects children, methics families, especially those who are living in tents and, and temporarily settlements many, many to many children being killed. and unfortunately, these children have nothing to do with the conflict they didn't choose to be in

that place. this is the worst that you guys will have seen in the past years since the you and has been monitoring the situation that so again, i think there's, there's no need to prove that the situation in gaza is really that's what you learn . we're seeing children being killed, they me, we are on the ground, our police only say the situation or we see more so then do a 6. the diseases are starting to 2 strands including grocery illnesses, even the type this. now we have some cases have been confirmed, and other other illnesses that are really, really dangerous, not only for the lives of the students or for the future, but the for the future of the community as a whole. this is a really hard to take on this. we allow this to uh, fist or, and is even more we are really we're seeing the whole whole community

need the international community to step up and take their uh, stigma responsibilities uh and defending children rights and really cool for a ceasefire and continue to look to see, and i work push for everyone, not only the parties to the caustic, but also those who how them for us over them to uh, to actually uh, step up and, and actually need the responsibilities of the international community. those are the top stores this our on our, to international. thank you for watching heads on one side. aren't you to come from? what i've they show on josh. i'll see you of
