but are counter attack and suffer. heavy losses must go, says nearly 200 of us troops were killed in the box, trade and a number of their tags for destroyed the coming to live from lots to do. this is our to international with the top stories from all across the world. i'm few rela isabel, welcome to the program and breaking news just in 20 palestinians have been killed and many others are wounded in central gaza. that's after. and it was an idea of how the comforter attacked the enclave. cells, ministry reports. israel has denied any responsibility and has urged the public to rely on what they say are credible sources. we heard from some of those on the ground around 11 30 pm on his way to talk to him. basically as we are waiting for

these invitation, paid according to god's administrative health, they have and also said there's thousands of casualties delivered. i'll ship a hospital due to this attack and there's hundreds of entries also. and it's very necessary to mention that this is the 1st time where there's one in the army targeted palestinians who are awaiting payment. and they just have a similar effect. cost 6 kinds of teams and thousands of injuries. as you have just heard from my colleague and guys, uh, according to guys, a health ministry. dozens of people have been killed and more than 150 others injured in attack when a crowd of palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid as reported. the deadly incident happened in the northern parts of the gas. a sweeping gas, a c t. a cool way to round about these plays is known as a distribution point where age trucks come on the wrong. the probably seen in ministry blames israel for the attack as being the number of victims may rise,

as ambulances still struggle to reach to the area of the attack. some unconfirmed reports also say an idea of how they coped or opened fire on gases waiting for the critical supplies. but this information is really hard to be verified. right now we also receive on very fine to be to allegedly, from the ground showing dead bodies covered in dust and sewed. but again, it's hard to verify this video and hard to tell from the footage where when 8 was short, the idea of dismissed all the reports about the attack on people waiting for humanitarian aid as falls, calling on media to rely on credible information only with humanitarian crisis now unfolding the palestinian clave, the un says famine is imminent across the gases trip. relieve supplies. arrival is always, understandably a big event and a lot of people usually gather at the point where critically needed food and water

supposed to be distributed at an age. unfortunately sometimes becomes dangerous last month they want a similar result on a crowd as palestinians who gathered on the sheets streets also in guys a c t waiting for food distribution, the palestinian health industry and have mass then blamed israel for the dead. they attacked the claim to more than 100 lives hours later. the idea for these, the statements, same casualties were in dozens, and most victims were trampled or run over a k is as crowd store on the trucks that we do for those that we then were receiving from the ground. so it was given a different picture later, the army admits of the troops, deed fire, at warning shots in the air, an opening fire on several gallons, who moved toward soldiers and a tank at an idea of check point and danger, and troops and the army also said then that they was limited fire

were following the story and verifying the information as we receive it. so we'll bring you the latest updates as they come in. stay tuned. and polls have officially opened, and russia and the citizens on friday are lining up and passing the roads in the presidential election. r t will be here, every step of the way with our special coverage. the now the vast expanse of the nation covers 11 time zones. russian citizens from the far east were the 1st to cast their ballots. as voting is now under way footed from the volcano late in land of cum chuck gush shows locals as they picked their next president, russia, central election commission,

chair woman share these encouraging words. especially with my mother on the thank you very much. first of all, to the residents of come, child got into good guy who came to vote for understanding the significance of participation in such an important event. i'm grateful that all of us together together, we are a force and we wrote for russia ahead of the election. vladimir putin has a dress, the nation calling on every russian citizen to take part. because every vote counts it was really make it has been new. i see this will be the 8th time russians vote in the presidential election, which proves our country's commitment to one of the fundamental principles of democratic society and the regularity of elections. the outcome of this election will shape russia's evolution and growth for years to come. it is a historic event and a moment of great responsibility. the only source of power in our country is its

people. a fundamental principle that's enshrined in russia's constitution. its core meaning is that you and only you, the citizens of russia can decide the future of your homeland. you are about to cast your vote. and in doing that, declare firmly and resolutely your will, your aspirations and your personal commitment to the continued development of our shared home. i am sure that you recognize just how powerless this time is for our country, and what difficult challenges lie ahead of us in almost every direction to continue to meet them with dignity and overcome these hardships, we need to remain united and remember our inner strength. we must show our unity and determination to march on together. every vote is valuable in every vote matters. so i urge you to exercise your right to vote in the coming days. our country is massive, but polling stations will be open on every corner in every city, town, and village. when you may take up with you, but i split. so aside from putting hor,

the other contenders in the race. blood is loved the bunk of age from the up and coming new people party at 39. and a former businessman, he's claiming to be the young, fresh phase russia needs. don golf recently met with international observers who will monitor the elections despite his political party. having only recently appeared on the russian political scene, he emphasized that he has a big team assembled to observe the voting process, to make sure it's free and fair. the transmission of course, we expect that the elections will be held at a high organizational level. and i know high important international participation is that includes observations which will be organized here starting tomorrow, they'll be computers. and observers, observers will also be working into regions primarily in areas where there are no cameras. most of the polling stations are equipped with cameras. so a large team of volunteers will also monitor the progress of the elections online.

and next step we have nikolai had a donald from the communist party, a parliamentary veteran. he's been a familiar face in the world of politics for over 3 decades. in fact, he was runner up when he lasted for president in 2004 on a burning electoral issue ukraine. he says there can be no more. goodwill gestures generally colored somebody. and you officially given the current public regime and ukraine, which was planted by western europe, i perfectly understand the population of ukraine. they are ready to agree by and large to do anything to stop the fighting. so much. recently, both for administer, lover of and the president of our country have repeatedly stated that we are ready to sit down at the negotiating table. but on russia's terms, there is no other option. and finally, leo needed slootsky who leads the liberal democratic party. he is currently pulling at around 3 percent. he was also actually a member of the russian delegation api is symbol peace talks with ukraine. back in

the spring of 2022, his campaign has been driven by social issues like tax cuts and tackling inflation . yes, the address if we described the russia of the future as we see it, it will be a comfortable country where you can not worry about safety driving normal roads without traffic jams and not freeze at home in winter because the management companies work well. it is a fair country where all citizens rights are respected and all social guarantees are realized where there are no poor people. this is a great country that is respected by everyone in the world. it has formed a new global majority in the world of replacing the anglo saxon regime centered in washington, and putting an end to the dispute over what the world order should be. it will be multi polar. the cost like a new crane, is a pivotal factor for many russians and likely to weigh on the outcome of the elections. it's also impacted the incumbent president stance toward western powers

. archie is marina post that ever has been looking at how glad i am your pollutants attitude towards them has changed throughout his time in charge. a lot of my post and it became ross as president for the 1st time. it was a breath of fresh air and not only for russians, it look good and for on this thing of the beginning with the west appearance, a welcome rush. as near later i have come to moscow important time. russia, after all, has a new president, a new government, a new duma. its economy is showing encouraging signs of growth. this gives russia a pivotal opportunity to build on the strong record of engagement between our 2 countries. it is also an opportunity for the united states. i welcome president clinton's interest in building a russian that enjoys the enduring strength of a stable democracy. they evidently like what he had been saying and they were eager to engage for some boots and went on to define. his vision is only the west had

less than instead they went on to prove that they only support those who follow them blindly. yeah, he found the name of the social of democratic principles in international relations . the ability to find the correct decision and readiness for compromise on a difficult thing. but then it was a european who was the 1st to understand how important it is to look for consensus over and above national egoism. we agree with that. all these are good ideas. it seemed just recently that a truly common home would shortly rise on the continent. home in which the europeans would not be divided into east and west and northern or south. and today we must say one thing for all the cold war is done with we have entered a new stage of development. we understand that without a modern sound and sustainable security architecture, we will never be able to create an atmosphere of trust on the continent. and without that atmosphere of trust, there can be no united, great or europe pack that

a lot of our puts in the most optimistic about russia's relationship with the west . we'll see what he had to say about this assessments in hindsight. but for now, let's say in the early 2, thousands, that's when the russian lead or even consider joining forces with natal. i see a russia, she's part of the european culture. and i cannot imagine my own country and nice solutions of some stuff from europe. and what we often call the civilized world. so it is hard for me to visualize janitta as an enemy. i think even posing the question this way will not do any good to russia or the world. the very question is capable of causing damage to be enough. we are open to equitable cooperation partnership, some even joe biden as senator app that's fine. most singing his praises saying that no russian leader since peter the great has passed as long as lots with the was as boots and it has. well, it was all good as long as rushes leaders didn't interfere in international affairs

. it seems. well, the warsaw pact long dissolves and soviet era basis clothes must go well, seemingly playing along and was expected as partners to do the same. washington however, continued to expand, nato, withdrew from the and so ballistic missile, pretty well innovating. i've gotten this done before it moved on to iraq. well, experts say that was the turning point. russell's adamant that these developments require the, let's have a look here. they're required a political settlement and they emphasize that the situation could only be resolved for international cooperation through the security council. and in compliance with the un charter. we stand for resolving the problem exclusively through peaceful means. any other option would be a mistake. it wouldn't be fraught with a grievous consequences. it will result in casualties and these stabilize the international situation in general. well, we all know what happened there, a total and utter disaster. the wes continue to ignore

a lot of my pollutants. warnings was withdrawn from yet another treaty. this time on nuclear arms reduction. the big picture was looking very suspicious. let's not forget that one of the boots is main issues from the get go was for the west to stop expanding nato or a sports rush or not. so we saw it as a threats, but it says it's not as good as shooting. nato expansion does not have any relation with the more than i zation of the alliance itself or with ensuring security in europe. on the contrary, it represents a serious publication that reduces the level of mutual trust. and we have the right to ask against whom is this expansion intended? and what happened to the assurances are western partners made after the dissolution of the warsaw pact. i would like to quote the speech of nato general secretary, mister warner in brussels on 17th may 1990. he said at the time, but the fact that we are ready not to place

a nato army outside of german territory, gives the soviet union a firm security guarantee. where are these guarantees or that fell on deaf ears once again, because nato continued expanding. have a look at this map right here. this is what it looked like before nato didn't just swallow up. new members book countries that used to be part of the warsaw pact with the soviet union. and they kept moving closer and closer to russia's board. the spies vladimir boots insane stop. we didn't get unless you're going to use the motion of russia cannot but react to actions that undermine and security. further expansion of the military block is a problem for us. so let's leave amicably and have a fair dialogue. guys, the way we are treated, we will react the same way. but today i felt that i was hurt by my partners, but they didn't listen well the towards the end. you cray next on the list,

the plans it's are in georgia and so in and so i rushed and stave didn't work out as pride. but america was on the church and essentially took it upon itself to make sure that the plan for kids was put into action, as we all saw with the my dad who in 2014. well, despite the fact that keeps the military had killed thousands of civilians in the pro russian don't boss for years, lot of of who to remain calm and collected, urging all sides to negotiate. that a miracle happened with both parties sign in the men's agreements. so and all hostilities, yeah, feeling pretty seniors cuz i'm, we probably would generally join what has been said here. today's negotiators have adopted a final joins document the 3 are firms, the risk ability of strict and consistent implementation of the minutes agreements of 12 of february 2015, and stresses the importance of establishing direct dialogue between the parties to the conflict. it was all a scam, just like washington's promise not to expand nato. leave him russell with no other

option, but to use military force to protect the civilians in former parts of the eastern new crane, the west side with launching their interventions all around the world for decades in the name of suppose a democracy which never actually comes to countries they invade, but when russia simply stood up to save civilians from him as a military, natal cried file. yes, there was definitely not even a d. i can tell you with absolute sincerity, despite the fact that i worked in the security services for 20 years, i still had an idea that the whole world and the so called, civilized world understands that russia has become a different country. that there is no ideological confrontation anymore, and i easily thought that it was the inertia of thinking and actions that was a nice belief. and the realities are that after the collapse of the ussr, it was believed that russia would also collapse. then they wouldn't be able to pick apart the pieces and use our resources and was only later that this realization

came to me. now when it comes to the most comprehensive election coverage r t is the place to be with the marietta of correspondence experts and analysts waiting to give their take over the next couple of days. so stay tuned for our special coverage the while the elections have begun smoothly, a representative of the central election committee has said testing voting systems in western russia has been difficult mid kids showing of the region. this comes after the mayor of belgrade reaffirm that there are no ukrainian soldiers on russian soil. meanwhile, on thursday, moscow's defense ministry announced that keeps troops had attempted to breach areas in belgrade and curse, but failed, leading to heavy losses on the ukrainian side. a preemptive actions by russian

units have foiled yet another attempt by the ukrainian armed forces to break through into the border territory of the russian federation. near the spider use in that area of the belgrade region. as a result of russian air strikes and artillery fire up to a 195, you cranium, service men were eliminated civilians. a man and woman were killed in the belgrade region of russia following artillery, showing by the forces of the key of regime according to the local authorities. now, the man who was killed was driving his car on a very business street during this barbaric attack. there were dozens sofa other drivers on the road at that time, but they were unscathed. now russian armed forces in the neighboring cursed region also witnessed and attacked by ukrainian militants. the local governor said that ukrainians, tablets, or groups attempted to infield trade the russian border. there, but were a successful due to time,

the response of the russian military. how this latest you create an attack in belgrade and curse was just one of many in the recent days. according to the russian authorities keep attempted to break through the russian border several times since sunday. at the moments oh, you create in attempts look futile. the border is under complete control. impossible to penetrate on the ground and moving to cabs, patrons, german officials in the boot in stock, have voted down another resolution which proposed to send tourist missiles to frayne. now this follows opposition party leaders uniting on the issue of berlin's involvement in the ukraine conflict, saying that the long range missile deliveries would defacto make germany a party to the conflict. hi lindsey, the whole world outside the gym and political bubble knows that ukraine is not in a position to win this war. that ukraine has not been winning for a long time. but tony dying brutally and blood to the every day. and that the

delivery of tories, messiahs will not change the situation in any way. the only thing they will change is it jim and he will definitely become a party to the school in the eyes of russia. the question of security is what you are playing with so frivolously and in the worst case, even with the lives of millions of people in germany to come to your senses before it is too late. feeble in so beginning the delivery of the tourist must be categorically rejected. oh, laughed schultz is absolutely right to draw a clear red line here. and we urge him to be some. the chancellor is responsible for ensuring that germany does not become a policy of war. and supplying the tourist would be a clear involvement in the war. in fact, to put it bluntly, germany is already a party to the war. the delivery of offensive weapons such as the tourist, a weapon system with a range of over 500 kilometers, capable of destroying the kremlin, could be clearly perceived by russia as germany's final declaration. for the meanwhile, on wednesday, all of shaw, it's once again rolled out, sending the tourist missiles to crane shipping. long range missiles to key have has

been the subject of heated debates in recent months and berlin, some german parliament members and even the u. k. have been applying pressure for berlin to move forward, but the german chancellor has been resisting the transfer of these munitions to cab . now this comes after the intercepted audio of, of, for german defense officials discussing possible targets. these missiles could strike inside of russia and the ways germany's involvement could be covered up and also. so i came to the conclusion that there are 2 interesting targets, the bridge in the east and the ammunition depos above the bridge. and the east is hard to reach, it's a rather small target, but the torres can do it. the ammunition depos can also be hit. we need to ensure that from the very beginning, there is no mention that would make us top of the conflict. i'm exaggerating a bit,

but if we tell the minister now that we plan meetings and we'll drive by call from poland, so that no one notices that's already participation and we won't do that. on monday, do you think it is possible to hope that ukraine will be able to do everything on its own? after all, it is known that there are many people there in civilian clothes who speak with an american accent. we heard from the german peace council chairman who says that germany's continued supply of arms to cab is a war crime. a see. and this will say, i've been discussing in the bonus tag whether there is already a war capability and whether they have already become a part of the war is the german side or not. but germany is already a warning policy. and just from my point of view, if even the officers say that the war cannot be won by ukraine, but we still continue to supply weapons there or support the people who are slaughtering their children there and the russian children to. and that's a war crime in itself, but above all, it is also a question of the arms industry. i think this is also about millions and billions

of money. i can only hope and trust in the prudence and wisdom of the russian government to give us the civilian population of germany, the time to build up the appropriate political pressure here to so that such a weapon exchange opportunities are not continued. and that we may finally bring about a policy change in general that will ultimately lead to meeting russia, security needs and ending the war to africa. now, a judge and kenya says, a massive lawsuit against american food conglomerate delmonte can still go ahead. that's after the defense tried to say the case was out of the east african countries jurisdiction. delmonte is facing numerous accusations of assault, rape, and murder, allegedly committed by guards, edits, farming locations in ken. yeah. now the company is also accused of attempting to bribe witnesses. kenny, as high court is currently considering the lawsuit brought by a legit victims with the support of multiple and deals to

delmonte has dismissed the charges and says there is no evidence a representative of the company to announce the legal action as a disinformation campaign. however, earlier this month, the company apparently fired $250.00 guards from canyon farming locations and replace them with staff from a global security company. so monte reportedly said the new personnel had undergone freighting to use minimal physical force added tech cities added facilities. here's how it victims have spoken about their experience of being beaten by former guards . who might and do my own. i was beaten by the gentleman guards with the room on my head and they left me dying. actually, they thought i had already died and that's when they dragged me into a forest near by where i spend the whole night. while i go farm and conscious and informed my family members who took me to the hospital, a delmore where being seriously beaten by the guard,

some are killed and others when they are called disappear completely. i think the defeats we used to get grass for our live stocks at the delmonte site. one day these guards sauce and chased us and unfortunately their dog caught me. the guards thoroughly beaten me. they left me in conscious and drag me deep inside the pineapple field. later in the evening they carried me outside the plantation and left me to die at the roadside. and by that time i was seriously bleeding. i spent the whole night bleeding beside the road and early in the morning, the mare and carried me to the hospital. these guards beat us. they chased us with dogs, and some people died while in the hands of these guards. we spoke with human rights defender james milan, gave chairman of the african center for corrective ad preventative action. he says that kenyans are outraged with the parent. impunity of delmonte and similar western companies and are demanding justice, be upheld a dan lloyd city and really actually leading to the most annoyed by the fact that

the company has faith and in court. does it kind of be sued enough to kind of be sleeping? we asking her question, what are you bringing up was enough for you to get to a setting up the offices in kim kim, monday's line. you can go in front clean up with it. so there's no reason that's the way we go to independent is to keep on it assuming this rubbish. we cannot allow anyone to put but it's no offense with infinity. if you apply it to can can, you just can find, you know, so the, the, pretty much what we have to bush and bush and bush until we get a solution. we uh, force us the difference between those alternation those community and government where the room rush, you know, from say, you know what, i'm from america. we want the respect of africa. so this traditional, actually we have moved to get some solution to create a sustainable relationship. but so the, this with national was out that the didn't get any stuff with the end of the for go . i understand that every guy is leaking out of the guys. so the, the,

the spit this respect, but the kind of this one she is already, but i think i'm good at all. that's all for now. but for all the latest news and updates on the very busy do political world at over 2 r t dot com. thanks for watching. see your back in 30. the has the death poll, mouse and star basin occurs the by the administration has made it clear repeatedly that there are no red lines. no red lines need a green light to continue. genocide, genocide is official watson the the

stock of just because that was what you just keep dice. good exposure. somebody. well maybe she me up. there's a so it was, yeah, it's a 20 gift and the serious focus of a funeral or choose those. and this part of the stuff you could always changing uh, conditions do not pay more than oh, okay. who's towards the one you got the got a sure thursday. so say it is what i usually end up disc kit, cost you the attention to chicago as much as it would come into looking good at your thoughts. cool, because like when the, when what, what do you mean? you can show it, that's what i'm on this, which is great. yes. typically the mortgage is just most quite the way up to your system. i'm going to pursue that kind of shock. lot most are you going to cause any boys or some store frontier secure? sure. they're clean, pass all those much on the i'm the i was also i was the bid it's biased, gave us.
