the the one civilian is killed in the latest ukrainian, the shelling of the russian border city of belgrade hitting a heavy populated residential area, the cranes, energy and industrial infrastructure reporter light comes on. are the largest russians, frank, in months fucking wide spread. the power outages as the relentless is really offensive, kills at least $140.00. i guy says, i'll see for hospital this week, this place to civilians are forced to flee the medical complex where they saw shelter. suddenly let them in out 1st naked without any clothes. and then they left the women out, making us hold our hands out of the forest just to go to this house. it has been a no goes on since october, 1 of 40 threes, really communities along the border with 11 on in the north. the turns into ghost

towns. and we report from northern israel, which has turned into a no man's land amid escalating cross border strikes between the idea and has the last 11 on the you're watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. the russian city of belgrade has come under a fresh strikes from across the border by the ukrainian military killing at least one civilian and wounding it to others. first, a warning you may find the following. images disturbing to a local woman was killed while walking. her dogs as a shell, landed right near her on the road. another video from the city shows several cars on fire near a large residential building. that area was apparently hit by a ukrainian missile. russian officials say 5 houses and 4 medical facilities have

been damaged. emergency services are now working at the scene. of this comes out for local authorities, ordered a temporary evacuation of civilians, mostly children from areas near the border with ukraine. the displaced russians will be accommodated and at least 11 other regions of the country. the neighboring verona is region has already taken in some 50 families. from belgrade the refugees are expected to stay there for several weeks. while officials have plies to provide them with a central supplies. we heard from some of the civilians who have been evacuated. of the scary is an understatement. you'll preparing to die all the time that so it's scary for the child, not for yourself. but for the child. many parents hide the children in the bathrooms, sleep that cover the children with the bodies to protect and move toward the we

decided to leave because there was a lot of tension on saturday. a missile hit our yard. i'm very worried. the kids are always hiding at home in the bathroom or in the hallways. it's very hard. of course we want to go back because we are not going to a band in the city. it is, you run you through the bells or our region has come under increasingly intensive hacks by cubes forces, and number of ukrainian troops have also tried to cross the border and seize villages. there. moscow says, as forces have eliminated hundreds of angel traitors and destroyed it and dozens of their vehicles, just in the past 2 weeks, at least, the 17 civilians were killed in more than 100 wounded by cabins military in the belgrade region. meanwhile, the defense minister have no del that has admitted a number of the countries. nationals are fighting for a key of the of an official claims. the volunteers are there legally as they joins the international legion of ukraine, a separately, some romanian mercenaries say they've taken part in terrorist raids on russian

border regions. that's according to revelations on their social media accounts. that's journalist and call them this sony of and then, and the says, europe is on a dangerous past escalation in ukraine. to my own opinion. i think the already a long time and you know, involved in the war because sending weapons to ukraine. they to weapons german weapons or whatever. yeah, you are, you know, part of the war because with your weapons, who are shooting and russian people, russian soldiers. but this is because of extra dimension, the remaining legion is inside. it's taking nothing to build or you know, the last no, that's every dangers we know relative george and legions are there. i see similarities with, with the syrian war because they have a they called the leader like for instance, on the russian. i tell you his name is caesar. well, they had this similar name in the series as well, supposedly, you know, if this

a now prison, there, they will, the evidence came out. but this particular know many of the do is you are going to, you were being legion and, well, it, it's just an extra step towards war with nature we can say. and i think it's the very dangerous situation. let's hope between up escalate. but i'm afraid because, oh, the one story keeps coming out of you're saying that we didn't try to use, they have to refresh. so it's is every terminal dangerous situation is now the russian military has reported by launched a mass of series of strikes on new cranes energy and industrial infrastructure in multiple regions. and one of the main objects apparently had is that in the per hydro electric power plant fire has abrupt in there and vehicle transportation across the bridge over the dam has ceased in another regional military production and repair factory was reported. they struck as well as 2 other power stations.

ukrainian energy ministry says it's the largest strike on the country's infrastructure in months, electricity and internet outages have been reported across ukraine. there has been no comment from moscow so far other russian officials have consistently stated only military related sides are targeted. but he was recently shot down the very possibility of peace talks between russia and ukraine. as the latest allegation from renowned american journalist seymour hersh citing his exclusive sources, the american official who is kept abreast of the ongoing talks between the leaders of the 2 armies at war, said that officials of the bite and administration working with zalinski continued to rebuff any chances of significant progress and peace talks, we were on the verge of a reasonable negotiation several months ago, before putin's re election. and zalinski is military degradation. the us leaders got wind of the possibility and gave zelinski the ultimate them no negotiations or

settlement, or we won't support your government with the $45000000000.00 and non military funds . meanwhile, polish officials are beating the war drums as they claim nato could be attacked by russia in the next couple of years. a lot of some way of a bunch different from my point of view. it's a question of common sense. i've got some new reports coming in and i recently saw one by tell my next, but we said that soon pops as early as 2026 or 2027. mostly gluten by putting is economy on a wall for thing to have such a military might that he'll be able to attack tonight. so. okay, then the loan bills are ringing. suddenly, we have 2 or 3 years in which we can increase our efforts, that people stop pulling munitions and produce weapons to maximize european security. get ready and make sure the invasion doesn't happen. we'll see with full clarity, the change is taking place in russia, and we're drawing conclusions from this to, but it's simply a rush. he's preparing for a conflict with nature, with full awareness of the fact that the alliance is

a defensive structure. russia has repeatedly stated that it has no intention of making a move on nato territory as that would lead it to world war free. moscow has accused the us side block itself of stoking tensions on rushes borders. the lions recently expanded with the accession of finland and sweden. ukraine also wants to join the former virginia. senator richard black says without us support, you praise wherever it would not be sustainable. i think that he correct way of services that unless the united states is behind the ukraine more it's it's, it's going to and it's going to and mad wait for ukraine because they just, they, it's, it's, it's tragic. it's one of the great tragedies of our time that the nato has

pushed new crane into fighting and it's just black and white. i think the plan all along has been to have the craig spike as long as i possibly can. i've. i'm very worried that the d over a plan now is i think there's a realization that ukraine has more or less last or more. now their lines are holding. i haven't talked india, but they're stretched so same way. and honestly it's, i think it's just a matter of time before the line collapses at some point. and there's a breakthrough. and there just are not in north ukrainian men left to man the they rush. so there is a, there's a realization that the situation is desperate for ukraine. they're

only really 2 countries on earth, the today that truly understand how to find one, the modern ballot for you is not the united states. so to, i'm sure, and if you pray your brain, you know, they've, they've done a pretty effective job of finding a charging or deciding and russia has done it. just it monumental job of, of a stablish and defense, long range, very effective defense lines. and, and right now, are you have, you have washer mobilized, where you have the industry very, very effective, good to have producing munitions and so forth. there was a tremendous amount in the in rushes favor right now, and i'm not sure how easy it will be for the united states

to to get people in thursday. i'll stick about another more in northern guys are they is really military says it will keep writing the whole chief a hospital for several more days. the idea of claims, the facility is full of terrorists who have barricaded themselves inside its wards . the as rarely, military has released some footage of its raids, an idea of success and says at least 600 terrace had been arrested at all. she 5 with more than $140.00 others eliminated their several caches of weapons and intelligence documents for allegedly seized at the facility. whoever dozens of civilians have also been killed during raids on the hospital this week. that's according to palestinian authorities. at least 7000 are said to be sheltering there, but they've been ordered by israel to evacuate and head south. we heard from some of the displaced locals. select the item, how sorry,

and they suddenly besieged us while we were sleeping. we've been under siege for 3 days with nothing to eat or drink. there are 6 people among us. when they let us out, save a siege, all the buildings have been. they let them in our 1st naked without any clothes. and then they left the women out, making us hold our hands on google. they forced us to go to the south, but we have no one there. so we are we supposed to stay? there were snipers in every building. we never, we tried to take a different route and go east, they would for bid us. it was extremely dangerous as really, troops were everywhere. they surrounded the sick people. they hadn't eaten for 2 days. i just can't take this anymore. i am so tired footed circulating on social media shows bound and blindfolded people being taken away by soldiers. several doctors in journalists detained in raids, and now she for say they were physically abused by is rarely troops 0 man, human rights monitor group which has an office in gaza. city shared some

distressing testimonies of survivors about 4 times during that period. i saw soldiers lead groups of detainees, always at least 3 people, and never more than 10 into the hospital buildings, particularly the mold building, where bodies had previously been kept. gun shots were heard with the soldiers, then leaving the area to bring another group. there. it is a work let me know and send both times it cannot be described any other way. interest keeps going into these medical facilities. and basically, the intent is really to deny whatever left of medical care that people can go to and, and receive you know, some a modicum of health care that had denied them. and not only in this facility, but also in 33 other facilities. so plain and simple, you know, they said the shift particularly is also a refugee, a lot of people go there to take shelter to take their kids to,

as we've seen with my colleagues. same thing as family. and it was whether we don't know what happened to him or his family. you know, he was taken away strip down. and so, and so it is a word crime that goes on time after time with no other and except to continue the human and the 1000 and to continue and the exact it correct that correct revenge. i don't know for what, but the obviously with no political or military and because obviously medicare lays where it is out of keeping as well. so it takes it out on such facilities to choose this video released by a french national survey. and the idea of shows detained palestinians being humiliated by the troops. more footage from the same soldiers shows a group of palestinians blindfolded with their hands tied across in the us more

support for the as really assault as being voiced by some american lawmakers. democratic congressman daniel goldman, who's also a recipient of his rarely lobby funds, is among those back in the war area surrounding trust. despite the rest and alleged the torture of journalists and does the washington claims it is concerned about their safety and us state department official was grilled about that by palestinian reporter site or a cat. during the latest press briefing, my point is, when will they that state the man? and i say that this cannot keep on going with jarvis that our credentials that have worked out for a year after year, decade after decade when the those ratings went on to this way. why did i keep taking them, targeting them, giving them and presenting them with impunity?

why is that not a threat just to your site when we talk about continuing to press israel to enhance its mechanisms to better protect civilians? we of course, are also talking about extending that to journalists as well. we are always concerned for the safety of journalist, especially in conflict globe sounds, especially in somewhere like gaza. said erica himself told archie, the israel is apparently targeting journalist deliberately to prevent them from reporting the truth about what's happening in gaza. and then i say it's has not clearly shown any measurable effort to save guide journalists and guys. i mean they, they say they do, they say that a journalist should be allowed to do their job. they should be allowed to function on work. but in fact, we have not see them. the sanction is written by any measure or say, or say that you know is read should not do this, but if they continue to do it,

we are going to punish them in this fashion a summer saying that said the lists of being targets in an attempt to silence what was going on and the obviously for medical, complex learning done. so in general, do you think that's an accurate assessment? what i presume is read has always done this to your listing of people. think of, let's say, when we say a journalist, they think i'm sure in a box or they think of the $150.00 that had been killed since it is right away. this was done going wrong, gaza really yes. slot those thought a war and but the slow wrong guys out, but actually waiting for that. i mean, then you do your list palestinian journalist from my newspaper from other newspapers on television stations as someone had been targeted and killed, then it says, created and prison de annandale, to actually basically stuff out the truth. i mean, you might lose paper publishing the, you know, there's a lot of cuz we are under occupation and jerusalem. and for years and years and

years when we went over to them in the print edition, went to great swats. so for empty space, because in the sense i wouldn't take it out completely so they have as red as all we've done that is it printing not yet. and our fields. teddy cannot handle the tools and therefore it is just not that out. so the war is increasingly engulfing the region and spilling across the borders. so the idea of says 2 of its soldiers have been wounded in northern israel, in a 1st strike by the has the militant group and loving on. some is really communities in that complex zone had been forced to flee as our middle east bureau chief maria, from ocean of reports from the same israel is not officially escort with his fellow less, but in the north where the country boat is never known home to the wrong backed arms groups that hasn't been peace for months. we come to a to lunch and find the ones peaceful pictures come to several is really families

at the end. and there was a feeling that the residents left in the rush, clean hostilities on to bump all is meant by dozens of his fellow level kids. his high season gardens are full of right fluids, but there is no one to harvest them mit tula. israel's northern most supplements from 3 sides. it is surrounded by lab, but on i can see that i've been his villages on that hill from here. home to around 2200 people. it has been a no go zone since october. one of 40 three's really communities along the boulder with lebanon in the north. the turned into ghost towns to the bolt of all in the distance doesn't give the feeling of protection that serves as a reminder of the danger. on the other side, the mayor says it's hard breaking to be the head of an end to town. those who determine the scope of the flames of this war is, has been lost. not as unfortunately, we are on the defensive side where defending here all the time and has to bluff fire whenever they want, whenever they don't want to. they don't fire. hezbollah has been fighting with

these really army off to the have mass attack last october, and solidarity with a gas, a base palestinian militant group in 5 months. the idea of heat about $4500.00 targets and 11 on using artillery drones and navigation to strike observation points. launching positions and bases belonging to his butler who israel sees as terrorist. has bella attacked israel more than a 1000 times targeting these really army and residential areas here in the to 130 houses? housing hate, one civilian and 2 soldiers have been injured in attacks when they walk. i'd hate this car. it was a miracle that the driver survived to happen just tons of incidents and then old in israel and the last 17 years after the 2nd 11 on the. 2 and the last 5 months since october, the attacks happen here on a daily basis. people can not to return home yet. the may or believes there is only

one option of how to restore security. and i hope i showed that we are waiting for the government. so piece, rails, and them to decide to attack 11 on because there is no other choice. we simply don't have a choice. according to recent balls, the overwhelming majority of his release would support a war against his viola, which israel has already had to full fledged conflicts with the rock concerns with ease or at least capable of opening a 2nd front and needed of a state and competing in gaza, the cost is and israel's history especially given that his phone line is a much bigger and it means that him, us flushed months. the audience chief of staff announced as well as focusing on getting ready for war in the north. after another barrage of rockets from his belt of last week, his wells far rights national security minister responded with anger. that go on to the army is your responsibility. what are you waiting for? more than 100 me styles, 100 launches at the state of israel, and you said quietly,

stop releasing a bully videos unless started reacting, attacking we want war. now, these ro hasn't been sitting quietly, according to the armies estimates more than $300.00. his bella operatives have been killed since october, including 5 senior commanders, 750 others have been reported wounded. but those calling for war a say that is not enough to allow people to come back to the document on the largest city in the border region is now virtually empty. before the escalation, this population was around 25000 people of about 60000 as really is moving close to the lebanese boulder in the countries knows have left the homes since october. this is the big gets such displacement and has really history on the other side of the frontier. we don't know exact numbers, but the lebanese authorities say around 100000 residents have also been moved to allow all of them to come back. both sides want to make sure it's safe enough. now

is far from that. seconds later we were given yet no proof of how dangerous the area is. while we were filming, he receives notifications on my walk. i tell her to application they were several attacks and minora not far from where we are now into the actual not. and now we here would probably be is really a to be answering firing back and again, the firing continues. we stop the military vehicle passing by. there is a rocket attack on manada, which is not far from here. close. close um and the ra civilians. now here are only the army interior monassa. sorry. okay. no worries. we managed to find someone who could answer our questions. rossville, you left here in the city, though about 2000 the city that is, that are, or that stays in the city even though the government to the side hard suggested

that we would evacuate. of course a most of our assessor walkers like security will cuz what it will codes are next is that they won't girls and both of them are both around residence . so it's not a real good moment of. ready risk i ask in reality about the chances of a full scale war here, i do see no other choice and the only different wanted solution thing though was in for the 20 by the you and, and do and can nothing force because well, under the agreement to end the 20064, between israel and his butler. they should be new military presence south on the tiny river except for the lebanese army and un forces. his bola has violated disagreement. the bad news is so easy. how these are former ideas members specialize in, in the military intelligence and found they're willing to you analyze and security challenges and as well as north cheese, as his role as trying to drag is,

are willing to war. the israel is not interested in, at least for now. so as far it talks are and go in parallel to the have mass truce negotiations, but as interconnected as the are neither has yet seen at the size of breakthrough. so he believes they reset diplomatic solution, but it's frustrated about the progress of the talks because i don't see any deadline. i don't see any effective mechanism. everybody's talking about the role of keys but are right. what these are fees, but it's a terrorist organization. social movement, and it's a political party 11 on member in the lebanese government, in the lebanese parliament. i don't see how low kind of organization which he's entrenched in the villages in the town. can we drove from the place of the leaving and the place at that very day and as well when they are getting killed by the idea? and that's why i think that the warranty. and if we talk about the diplomatic

arrangements, should refer to this arm rather than read. roll on to a resolution is found and things are settled. hayes, rails large in northern region will remain a danger, is close to military area with views, civilians, empty roads, and closed shops and restaurants. a war zone without an official war. ray from ocean a r t reporting from israel is north of the who is the rebel group in yemen has launched at least 50 strikes on ships and the red sea that's according to the latest assessment from the pentagon, the militants began targeting cargo vessels after october 7th in response to israel's assault on gaza, us and the you take care of it out, a series of air strikes on the who sees. but the attacks on the crucial shipping route have persisted. the sonata based group claims all of its targets are somehow linked to israel. international shipping costs have spiraled,

as many companies were forced to stop sending ships through the rad that see and the who see a sold is it taking a heavy toll on israel is only read c port. the i la harbor ceo says 0 arrivals. there are means 0 income import administration recently announced it will lay off half its death, as well as the largest trade union is planning to hold a protest to highlight the harbor slide. the ceo of the port has been complaining about the crisis for months. here's what he said in january for that kind of go did come to a lot to a by bit in mind up from the far east. it's mean china, japan, korea, india is not coming because the ships out of freight to go. so it's above in mind though, us for a lot is a crucial to white global hub. it's been used for importing cars and also exporting fertilizer to the asia pacific region. but trade has plummeted, but since the who sees began hitting ships in the red sea, according to estimates as rarely economic losses reached as much as $3000000000.00

in january, the port is now said to be at risk of complete shut down. canadian journalist and lawyer demetrius scare us, visited the harbor recently and shared his assessment with us future of this port, which i would describe as a ghost board having been there this week. hinges entirely on israel's compliance with international law and gaza. certainly as long as, until the law is mounting, any kind of effective attacks and frankly, they don't have to do much. all they have to do is create a material risk. they have more than adequate means to do that, and there's no indication that they're going to stop and that the attacks on human will prevent them from launching these attacks. as long as is real, is waging, what is an effect? a genocidal. we're on gas. the button in frustration has the power to put a stop to this immediately because without the military and economic support that it is providing to israel. israel could not continue to wage a genocide of war and gaza. it is enabling, it is feeling that it is

a 100 percent comfortable bombardment of yemen. seems to be having the opposite effect. and the other thing i think it is important understand is at the bottom of human by the united states. and britain is a violation of international law. all of this activity by the united states is not only facilitating the genocide, but it's basically an active aggression of war, of aggression are waging on human in violation of the un charter israel is becoming an international pariah. and the only hope for israel to become a functioning and prosperous and integrated states in the global community is to respect the human rights of the palestinian people. i do stay with our 2 international. i'll be back with much more coming up in about 30 minutes time by the the we

are in north. the cities in the congress has mountains where beautiful people have been coming together to celebrate the ancient traditions. since the beginning of time itself, where everything has a special symbolic meaning. i'm sean thomas. this isn't my vision. and today we're discovering of the world of a southern culture the the, well, interestingly enough, that was one of the most valuable things that i wanted to do was question, shall we say these ukrainian prisoners? because i wanted to get inside their minds. i wanted to disentangle the strings that tied them up in knots, that enabled and animated their actions. what was their decision making process? what were their biases, their prejudices.
