8:05 pm
the much to the oven. god of rush is offensive here. now one of the primary objectives is the more about the operation, the dead bodies of ukrainian soldiers, scott said, and across the streets of dave, we can see the blue tape. it's the same signature mark of ukrainian soldiers under bracelet with the something that resembles a pentagram right now we are working with a special forces units with a rush and special forces units. of course the viking and not so far from us. they are still finding those ukrainian soldiers who did not make it out of the town. so all these sounds that you here is what is happening. they are clearing the streets of of game. could you make sure that every nook and cranny is under the control of russia? he, a key believe troops were meant to loosen the deadly new surround the towns. garrison, white of russia's fighters with the 35th brigade,
8:06 pm
tells me how they denied the enemy, this opportunity. the book, the fortifications in this area was serious, that they couldn't get across the road, the sniper and the machine gunner worked over on that side. and on the other side as well, it was this, the machine gunners was sitting there. and on this side of the flame throwers in grenade launches, somebody. here are the as all fighters. of course, the documents say they were from the, the sold brigade more. ukraine has a hard time lifting up. do you have to go? well, it has on the ground is a handful of left for the units abandoned. last confused. so key of has put in control and violence to work. this
8:07 pm
was the the so this is the of the railway station and that was one of the positions held by the as of neo nazi battalion, or rather the new inclination over this was where the ukrainian combined was hoping to stop russia's advice literally hours before realize that one of its efforts were futile. but right now it is sending its drones devices here the a listening for the buzzing the is because if the drone is so if it's one of the larger uh, one of the, a good cultural drones. there is a good chance that they will be able to shoot it down outside of town rushes armies working hard to capitalize on the games. so just behind me is the of dave koch and chemical blog. it's the dominating heights in this area. and so the ukranian forces,
8:08 pm
they fell back that way. so the russians they, i'm moving in from the heights into the valley. and this is exactly the sports that the russian combined is hoping. we'll make the advance of the russian troops towards last as well. move, move as more seamless there's plenty of work and up gave go for the viking task force and other russian units from the mining to uncovering potential and to be hiding spots. logos enjoy. what for them feels like a low in the fighting and brace for a storm. ukraine's fiery retaliation of every artillery calibre that they've got, i think is done up reporting pro updates. ok. see, following ukraine's retreats from the key footholds of cranky and idea of the pentagon. is never studied,
8:09 pm
cream will be forced to decide which citizen can continue to hold without us aid. that's as american military 8, stoles, in the us house of representatives as a deep got unfortunately, was a strategic withdrawal that ukraine made in order to conserve their own artillery. and ammunition luck, if we don't get more, if we don't get the supplemental, i outlined that at the very top. but if we don't get the funding needed from the senate, or sorry, from the house to pass the senate supplemental, we will not be able to provide these critical p da packages. and ukraine will have to make choices and decisions on what cities, what towns they can hold with what they have and what partners content can continue to supply them. that comes as the white house lashed out at the us speaker of a house. mike johnson saying the republican is court actively harming america's national security by spoiling tens of millions of $1.00 and $4.00 and $8.00,
8:10 pm
most of which was meant for cuba pursuant to speaker has refused to put the bill to a vote until next week. a gentleman from texas, this granger is that the months from all your cleaning aid. com and made a storm of us media reports that russia plans to deploy nuclear weapons in space must close as the west has no reason to worry about this. because russia has no intention of doing so, that's according to comments about russia's defense minister saturday showed go during a meeting with president putting a bruce concerns. another question, concerns the noise that has been raised recently in the west, including in the united states, to about the, the deployment of nuclear weapons in space. our position is clear and transparent and senior, of course, my said, and we have no blast to deploy nuclear weapons in space or use any other elements of nuclear weapons on satellites. for example, they know we don't have such plants, but they're making a fuss. nonetheless. what surprises me is
8:11 pm
a different aspect. everyone knows what we have and you open the state of this in 2018 in the message to the federal assembly. in fact, to the whole world, they know that we are in the final stages of developing new weapons for some reason . they don't talk about it, and that's what really should be fits. well, it all started when word went out, the members of a congressional committee had been given some classified information about a so called national security threat. and based on that main stream us media in the united states, i went crazy years. some of the response us has new intelligence on russia's efforts to deploy a nuclear anti satellite system in space. russia recently showcased a new capability in space, washington as wanted syrupy and allies about russian efforts to develop nuclear weapons based in space to target satellites and involves a russian military capability. something potentially serious that might target satellites, but it's not an immediate threat. and now sources are telling us it has to do with
8:12 pm
the russians wanting to put a nuclear weapon into space. after that media buys never became clear what these members of congress had actually been greece, dawn. however, at that point, it's been confirmed by russian that they have no such plans, but us media has continued to kind of spin into an overdrive about is the lead space weapons of what else did the russian presidents on defense ministers say about the the 1st the western powers of making about the so called russia threats well, they did offer an explanation about why a main stream us media is going in to this over drive and making these claims that are contrary to reality. this is the analysis. they put forward a preaching and we'll get to the point, you know, it opinion. there are 2 reasons behind this fuss 1st. it's an attempt to testify. so this and congressman, in order to push through the allocation of funds that are allegedly dedicated,
8:13 pm
not only for ukraine, but also in order to confront russia and inflict the city to say it on it. and secondly, visits and assets for perhaps a clumsy one to try to encourage us to do is humans. the goal is to teaching stability. so it appears that there is a desperation coming from the white house to keep the ukraine money rolling. yeah. that of that played a role in the use hysterical clay. it's quite interesting analysis there, but at this point, russia is out of it as no such plans for these fictional outer space weapons. we heard from former us security policy analysts, malcolm, and move it dismissed. the report as a ruse to fabricate a need for more funding for you grant. this is something that, uh, this, this latest thing with nukes and in space. well, but it was, uh, all the roofs anyway. and uh, if, if the notion was to put nuclear weapons in, in space, that could be
8:14 pm
a complex now and orbit support satellites. that could be in effect, nuclear weapons. i think people are seeing that with a have difficult and everything else that they're just going to be throwing good money after bad. and, and, and they, that even the europeans are seeing this. now. they're having hard time, even nato countries are having a hard time coming up with funds to give to the, to, to, to buy equipment for ukraine. they're using this as a roost to, to, to stimulate the need for more funds. the ukraine. it isn't going to work. it fell flat in the congress. by the way, there were there were congressmen who have have been around for some time who got the briefing from the intelligence. you know, they lift their hair on fire and then they put it out with a frying pan. they just basically says that there's nothing new here. it's just nothing. so it was a very,
8:15 pm
very poor effort to try and get those funds moving. it's just not going to happen as it is. the congress isn't coming back for almost 2 weeks. and when it comes back on the 28th february on march 1, there's a partial is going to be a partial shutdown of the us government. because congress will only have 3 days to, to come up with any kind of funding. it has to be any before parts of the government shut down. so the congress, the, the, the funding of ukraine is not the highest priority right now in the us congress. us as once again blocked an immediate cease by initiative for guns, though the country was the only un security council member to vote against the peace resolution proposed by algeria with washington's representative. saying the draft is actually detrimental to peaceful that. we have made incredibly clear
8:16 pm
that the resolution before the council would not achieve the goal of a sustainable peace and may in fact run counter to yet proceeding with a vote today was wishful and irresponsible. and so while we can not support a resolution that would put sensitive negotiations in jeopardy, we look forward to engage them on a text that we believe will address so many of the concerns we all share. a text that can and should be adopted by the council. let's now take a look at what kind of resolution to us ones instead of the old jerry and proposal . both calling for humanitarian sees via while old jerry a demands and immediate years, the u. s. is pushing for only a temporary one with the condition that all hostages are released. both reject the 4th displacement of palestinians and called for humanitarian assistance across gaza . but the newest version fails to mention the implementation of the provisional
8:17 pm
measures by the international court of justice. political analyst and filmmakers, sean stones, as washington's news sending mixed messages, us as positing which is that the hostages have to be released in order to achieve the cease fire. and then there's maybe the more rational approach, which is called a ceasefire and negotiate under at least the auspices a piece we've seen, obvious in the past in the past few weeks reports about bite. and they switch between negatively about that yahoo and feeling that he's powerless, essentially, to, to force and then you know, to do anything. at the same time we see that the us is consistently sending military aid. so we'll see you have now in the coming weeks of congress goes forward with another, you know, $14000000000.00 or so to as well. so the point is that you're talking at the kind of the side of your mouth and one level bite. and it's saying, well,
8:18 pm
we're opposed to this, you know, to this, you know, aggression don't go into rafa. but we're still arming and supporting it's a financial release union, a saw angel forever stain both the u. k. and the us, that's the message from the what's the lowest brother r t correspondence? steve sweeney was outside of the high court in london, where the final appeal against extradition on espionage charges is now in session behind closed doors. here's what a saw as family members have to say a bruce friedman, and this case is closed the case with julian has the u. k. and the us. i'm embarrassed with it on the world side. simply by letting julian go and re establishing themselves as human rights advocates, the can be powerful around the world. so 3 julian, a, sorry,
8:19 pm
this case is an admission by the united states that they now criminalize investigative journalism. it's an attack on all journalists, all over the world. it's an attack on the truth, and it's with an attack on the public right to know, hundreds of campaigners and supporters of which he takes co founder duty and the phones of gathered here outside the high schools in central london coding a di x. now this is the critical food i have in full julian astrology is potential expedition to the united states. now this cool case like spot 220102011. when junior phones published, i drove of documents which were available real crimes or legible crimes, which is i was committed by the united states in both iraq and afghanistan, campaigners and for the press freedom organizations. uh hey, uh, this is a chris, a cool cool. this is
8:20 pm
a cool case that is not just about to do the phone for the is about the rights for people to publish. information via is in the product public interest as best i can, but this is an attack on press freedom, exposing things which might be the old lady in the world doesn't going through here . this is real journalism and so on supporting the case of julia saws, i me, i can't get to london to inform both people in london about the about you name is always, but also my people at home in germany for campaigners. this is a heidi political case that maybe heidi charged with the in bozeman, all to big powers like britain on the united states and only so the sides expose the war trains of the united states. his case was exposed, the corruption of an ac price cannot send over to the survey and they cannot set of entire political plus, plus federal song studios wife. this is a matter of life or death and she has this right. and once more the if julian is
8:21 pm
expedited to the united states, where he pays 175 years in prison onto the espionage on a daisy piece of legislation, introducing 9 to 17. this would be the 1st time the publisher has been charged under the if he is expedited that he will die in prison. now that have been paid for his votes, his mental and physical health. this is even being re, it's all right. if i are you and special russell to who describes the conditions of duty and is held in in belmore as high security prison as to not forget the duty in its own has not been convicted or charge with any crime by britain he was. but of course, these thoughts are 3 in the ecuadorian embassy, letting 2019 police also be removed him on funds for them to as a high security presence gave me was a full dose of committed acts of terror. now,
8:22 pm
the dates these next 2 days, tuesday and wednesday are going to be absolutely critical. this will determine whether june is going to be expedited if the system could take place very, very quickly. now, sellers as own have said that should be high coal in favor of expedition, not civil appeal or potentially appeal to the you are paying coal of human rights. were heard from middle east expert kind of like almost an founder of the online channel seriana analysis. he says the u. s. case against as harsh is meant to show german list around the world. that exposing washington's crimes will have grave consequences. hey michael, this is the most important case for free press enter your journalism. assign just main message and main motivation was to stop the wars by exposing the true motivations and multi use of the invading powers. and after world war 2, most of the invading powers were from the west and word b, the united states or the u. k. against navy, against syria, against the dark,
8:23 pm
against i've gotten a sign in different regions of the words. and this was terrifying projects for the united states. because for the 1st time the public can see the to a multi is up. they pull additions, a waging these destructive wars and spreading may hammer around the words, and couldn't get spreading democracy and spreading human rights, et cetera. therefore, if a scientist expedited to the united states, which by the way plaza to poison him to assessing a team, he is likely to survive the american dungeons. in my opinion, this means also the joyless around the world will receive with the following message from the united states behave or bay or similar destiny is awaiting you. if you will, try to expose our crimes over bringing you the latest on those. you know, songs cases will follow over here into the high court in london over the next few
8:24 pm
days. more details, analyses and reaction can be found on our website r t dot com. the depaula is now where i angry farmers or gathering that across the country in protest blocking roads on the pony should create in border the font as a rallying against the is new environmental measures and the import of ukrainian agricultural products which they believe creates unfair competition. they have blocked roads, check points in the ukrainian border with tractors, banners and other equipment. the finest in the dougherty trade union says it is planning on and off road locates throughout poland until march 10th. the photo you see right now has been circulating on the web. one of the protests as was seen supporting the soviet flag that says as tractor carried
8:25 pm
a band of that called. and it's not important to quote, to deal with ukraine and the u. leadership demonstrate as brenda's national flags and chanted slogans. and i've seen spinning grain from watkins at the mid deacon. she gave me check point agricultural workers, believe the import or the cleaning green into poland is on fast and undermines their ability to make a living is what you're creating. and president vladimir zaleski had to say about what's happening. sure, this is regarding the situation that demonstrates a daily erosion of solidarity things that are happening on our western border. the border with poland cannot be considered normal. a simple and clear justice is needed only 5 percent of our agricultural exports passed through the polish border . so in reality, the situation is not about grain, but rather about politics. the punishment of staff development and technology christmas. doug government says that presidents, alaska,
8:26 pm
she'll take care and making such statements, taking into account the totality of all relations the way we have supposed to do crime from the 1st day. i would remain cautious and expressing such opinions. senior research fellow at the global policy institute judge so mainly says europe's form as have started questioning, who side governments are really on. the farmers realize that the leadership of people who run the you and many of the sort of the liberal governments in the you all sides of them, they have that green agenda. that basic, also culturally false style defined because they want to get your move away from the, from pesticides in the other, against the or against them. the emission of greenhouse gases and the farmers realize that they're getting to where we're up against governments who hate us. and who pursue policies that are detrimental to us originally. the reason why
8:27 pm
the e, you lifted it's, uh it's, it's tyrus against the grains grain was that you grain couldn't get it's green out via the black sea. but you create is getting the, the grain out by the black sea, i mean back to expos via the black sea on now as the same level as they were before this off of the cycle, special low truck bridges. so therefore you have to us, if you're getting the drain out by the blacks, the why exactly, are you dumping this grain into the you mock it. and then the, with course of the question, pretty honest with yourself, because they're a very powerful agricultural interest in ukraine. many of them are based in the united states that wants to make a little money. they didn't buy all this land and ukraine for funds. they wanted to make money and that's and it's, they were pushing you into continuing this. uh, you know, this,
8:28 pm
the importance of grain and without any terrace spanish media outlets. if he says that sources have confirmed the keeping of the defected russian pilots maxim coming off, he has electra t been living in spain under a ukrainian identity after hijacking a russian helicopter, which resulted in the depths of 2 crew members, a dimensional debt on february, 13th in a garage and be a how your set alley contact is maxime cause mean of the russian paula to the fact at last august to surrender to the cleaning ami with a helicopter. she was spotted in as confirmed by sources close to the investigation . this was a russian pilot who had defected to crane, with his helicopter just last august. and he was found dead in an underground garage, riddled with bullets from an unknown assailant. now, spanish and ukrainian media have reported this, but spain state news actually said that the body was found on february 13 in southern spain, and that belong to pilot maxime cruise meant off. initially they had thought this
8:29 pm
was getting related, but upon further inspection to his back story then they saw and looked deeper into it. now spanish law enforcement nor the court have confirmed that there was a murder. however, the spanish civil guard did comment that they did find safe documents, and that the investigation is ongoing and classified. you how much we know about maxime cruise. we know he seems like a regular individual. he was a 28 year old russian pilot. he was actually supposed to be delivering parts for us . you 27 and as you 30 fighter jets, but instead he was recruited by the s b u and offered a half a 1000000 dollars. to do the steve, now he hijacked the helicopter full of his crew and landed it forcibly. and har, coffee crane, and the head of the defense intelligence of the ministry of defense of ukraine carol, down of a set that most members of the crew who have refused to surrender were killed. and as far as we know,
8:30 pm
they had no idea of what his plans were. and later on he actually admitted maxime admitted in a press conference in here that he did do this, that he did transfer to play. now as far as rushes comments on, the head of the russian for an intelligence service has said that of see brought this upon himself when he decided to commit this act. let's listen to this traitor and criminal became a moral corpse. the very moment who was planning his dirty and terrible crime, no apart from not be f s. b major general, believe that the defective pilot had actually offered his services to you create himself. and earlier in a conversation with russian media had said that perhaps he might be eliminated by ukrainian services once they were done with him. and perhaps maybe that they didn't want to pay up. it seems like there's still a lot of questions that need on answering at this point. exactly. right, and there's so much,
