of that which is due to the last task. so the final frontier about uh, 30 seconds left before were expecting this uh, blast offset to take place. this will be the 3rd attempt this week of the launch of this successful previous attempts on tuesday and wednesday, just 24 hours ago were cancelled at the last minute for technical reasons. this is the 4th launch of the longer a 5 in history, but it's actually the 1st sense launch from what stops me as both the cosmic jerome and the rocket itself are fully designed and built here it is blasting off the rods or any of the streets it's

a glimpse that millions that sort of get the message. it was the quickest, but i'm glad you didn't wash it. so do you look like that? nobody said that they finished the 3rd time. why the charm? i hear you so celebrations in our news room as we're seeing this anger, a 5 isn't the rocket tab to finally blast off in this space. as i said, the previous 2 launch at times this week were cancelled as the last moments. but here we are, as we see it's, i take off some of the stops needed, causing it around just passing noontime it here in the russian capital on its way into space. all right, so we will be bringing you much more pictures of the rock. it's a center earth orbit throughout the news hour right here on our t. and of course you can also follow online on our website to r t dot com

a given. but trying to other news now is 3 sons and 4 grandchildren and the leader of a must have been killed in does the, by, in his really strike during the muslim holiday of either of that or a mazda political bureau. chief is male honey. i learned the news while in could tar where he lives and works. he says he considers the victims to be martyrs. the doubly striking came a med, fresh international efforts to mediate a new cease fire and gaza. mister honey, i says is rarely killing of his family will not change the militant groups approach to the tops. if they think that targeting my children at the pick up these thoughts before the movements responses submitted, full costs must have change its position, their delusional. the blood of my children is not more valuable than the blood of the children of any palestinian people. all the motors of palestine are my children . there is no doubt that this criminal enemies driven by the spirit of revenge and the spirit of murder and bloodshed,

and it does not observe any standards or loss. but how sweet of children and grandchildren were reportedly killed when their car was set on the road by is rarely missiles. the idea of has confirmed the strength but claims to have eliminated almost terrorist and not civilians. the devastating attack was seen by some of its male honeys, other relatives and guides. and here's what they said in the immediate aftermath of the old one afternoon of the day we spent in this place in front of these great martyrs. sounds of the head of the political bureau of this lennox resistance movement that the people of palestine and gaza are in the same situation. there was no difference between the sons of leaders and the sounds of the people. as we were still near the school, they were here to visit the families of the martyrs. when we heard the sound of a straight nearby, we went outside to take a look and they said it was the children of my uncle is smile, honey. yet their bodies are in pieces after the idea of targeted the car and fired 3 missiles from a drone. well, we're going to perform our prayers. when we heard

a huge explosion, we're told that the sunset is smells on yet we're going with their children to visit their relative to an idle future. when their car was bombed, we found them in pieces. we get their body parts conduct at this level of rituals and very in central rush of flooding us at the regional capital city of orange berg after last week's catastrophic them bridge the water level in the euro river inside the city has exceeded the critical mark effecting some streets and buildings there are to produce to remind them of the child of dives into the story from the same when the wrong way of a den was breached a few days ago. the see 2 of us close to us to suffer flooding. now the threat to for the low, just hanging over or in the regional capital, a city with a population of health, emily and water nature has been region here in russia, score and book region for almost a week. more than 10 solvent residential buildings were affected by the floods, the level of what in your old river is raced up to 10 meters will have in normal

levels of the water in the reverse. at 5 meters, the solution is close to the cool critical. when a flaw comes, people at different some grab what d. cannon lee 1 august. wait till the day are we and having some sort of believe the bay homes with north beacon as dated, but the end is always the same. due to destroys rex flu besides communities, people have to leave their lives for decades. and then in just a few days, all of it is being washed and waiting for the other slightly the the war to reach our street literally in 24 hours. so to build into your today i went into the house, into the cellar. my cell is 2 and a half meters. it's completely covered in water. we look at the little across, lots and lots of mid flooded l house. my father's house right here. it's flooded everything in one day with your costs as much stuff as we could,

but based on the parts of what we have because we didn't think the water would reach. yeah. you would see the problem also can be solved in one moment. we would just need to be rebuilt, takes time, and the damages are measured in billions of for almost multiple cent to federal ministers here to assure people that everything will be ok. but some still feeling abandoned. for them in which i have auntie or in the book region, the separation of nuclear power plant has come under an increasing number of ukrainian at drawn strikes. the man who oversees, all of russia is atomic energy sites has laid out the scale of disaster that could be unleashed by the attacks. so let me cut off. so this is showing a kind of good local, in addition to well protected power units, the industrial side of the nuclear power plant also has a storage facilities for spend nuclear fuel about diesel generators and a large supply of diesel fuel for emergency systems. damage to any of these objects

could provoke and you called accident and most important to this up or is the station, is it stuff? 247 will be under costs and shelling in a stressful situation. when there is a real threat to live in health, to ensure the safe operation of the plant, these are truly courageous people for keeping both the see different organ, dark, and the whole of europe, from the consequences of a possible nuclear disaster. once again, we demand to immediately stop and even if the stations of progression against this upper us are planned, in order to avoid repairable consequences, the clear facility was hit by several ukrainian strikes this week. one of the attacks damaged the dome of a power unit in, during several workers apparent, and drone and shell wreckage has been recovered from the scene for investigation international atomic energy agency chief rafael grossey has called the worst escalation of the sites since november 2022 russian foreign ministry spokesman memory as a har of

a has accused the last of trying to cover up the trains. escalating attacks on the nuclear plant, a new system on the west, and as a result into sensor shape daily. truly blocking the emergence of news on this matter in the mainstream propaganda mass media more over here. and there we even hear direct approval of criminal actions by the key for she include in those committed against nuclear facilities. it's like the key appreciated is allowed to do anything at all, and that can be no exceptions here. that's what they believe in the west. we will make every effort to ensure that such completion date in the crimes of the key for she does not go unnoticed. by the rational majority or the international community . so or if summer is a harv of there as fears of a nuclear disaster continued to mount was key of seemingly refusing to stop attacking the largest nuclear power plants in europe. and some experts warn that the plan is apparently so trend or nature incidents and blame it on russia. but of

course most go has been sound in the alarm all along, even requesting an emergency. i a need to address the attacks on this. i thought it was a nuclear power plants, the heads of the facility warrants of a nuclear catastrophe, concerns that are shared by the director general of the international atomic energy agency to show you during the last 5 days, starting from april, the 5th, this upper o. c. a nuclear power plants has come on the unprecedented drone attack by the armed forces. so few crane this poses a great risk of a potential nuclear catastrophe. the reported incident, although outside the site perimeter, is an ominous development. as it indicates, an apparent readiness to continue these attacks. despite the grave dangers, they oppose to nuclear safety and security and are repeated calls for military restraint. whoever is behind them, they are playing with fire, attacking a nuclear power plant is extremely irresponsible and dangerous, and it must stop, but keys is refusing to stop and no one is even trying to hold them accountable for

playing such a thing for escape. the e is top diplomat, joseph burrell said that the visa tags are a reckless, dangerous, and not they must stop. yes, but the who should still last what was missing a lot statement. and that's why ross has a master to the you. what has slow, i'm the west will seen me back in ukraine's actions gets worse and sponsors instead of covering up its crime since and supplying it with more weapons. and ammunition should bear responsibility for their reckless actions by ukrainian political and mean if it is a sort, it is a n for the teen tubs at compromising nuclear safety and security of the global scale. we are talking about 5 days of attacks starting from april. the best when a ukrainian kamikaze drone force took the area of the cargo ports and the nitrogen oxygen station, the next a. and now this slide nearby, april 7th,

ukrainian fluid was part of the plants of 3 times injuring sweet people. april 8th, and now they're coming because it almost fell down over the plans. and on april the 9th, the pads pressed service reports of yet another attack. this time on the building housing, the world's only full scale reactor, whole simulator. and what are your friends allies say in the bottle this? that russians should stop? stop waltz? exactly. we continue to call and russia to withdraw its military and civilian personnel from the plan to return full control of the plan to the competent ukraine authorities and refrain from taking any actions that could result in a nuclear incident at the plant well as the so called compet, since a crate in a forward sees that are, it's hacking the nuclear power plant that's putting the whole world in danger. so maybe it's telling them to stop would be far more beneficial for mankind. but that side seems to be more preoccupied with demonizing russia. while kids is working

hard to to cover its tracks, to tell you russia decided to yusef be drilled to simulate shedding supposedly from the korean side, the grains position is clear, concise, and i'm vigorous with enough. carry out in the middle of the reaction. so publications against nuclear facilities, the rest and mostly the nuclear power plant. you get the idea, right. if it looks like a dog swim is like a duck and quacks like a duck then. no, it's not a dock. it's the russians that made it well. that way. that was seems to be easier to accept any explanation, no matter how ridiculous, as long as it doesn't implicate them, or key of failings on the stand at the right. so when you clear catastrophe is very real and totally in their hands the us is trying to build a stronger coalition against china in the, in the pacific region. as he hosted the japanese prime minister and washington, president biden announced the creation of a new military architecture in asia. together,

our countries are taking significant steps to strengthen defense security cooperation for modernize you command and control structures. i'm also pleased to announce that for the 1st time, japan in the united states and australia will create a network system of air, missile, and defense architecture. we're also looking forward to standing up a tri, loud or military exercise with japan and the united kingdom. and our office defense partnership with australia, the united kingdom is explore and how japan can join our work in the 2nd tour, which focuses on advanced capabilities including a ton of the systems. the august military blogs comprised the straight layout of the u. k. and the us, as also said it wants to plan to take part in its framework that countries prime minister has however, locked back potential direct involvement with the ally and say, no decision has been made yet. we ask former us marine corps intelligence officer scott ritter for his take on the prospects of war confrontation in asia. the united

states is resent for the fact that neither russia nor china want to kneel before a hedge, a monic america, that neither russia nor china recognize the united states as the supreme authority in on the global stage anymore. this is something united states resent, and it's something that the united states is pushing back against. i think we are witnessing a race between the economic condition and the military condition. and if the united states loses the economic race, i think the united states will have no choice but to seed the military race meeting that will have to find a way to correct our position economically. before we talk about going to war, we can't go to war based upon

a fundamentally weak economic position. if united states is able to stabilize its economic position, visa be china, then we will press the military issues believing that we have a military advantage over china. and this is a mis conception misperception and a mistake, and it will lead to direct conflict with china. so i think the world needs to start setting on continued chinese economic growth and chinese economic dominance. because only through that task, when the war with america be avoided during has pushed back against fresh pressure from washington over china is booming and ties with russia. welcome to meet china and russia has the right to engage in normal economic and trade and cooperation. this kind of cooperation shouldn't be interfered or limited, and china also doesn't accept criticism or pressure blogger and political analyst

alex for fortify, says the u. s. may target china economically as it did with russia since the special military operation in ukraine in february of last year. the u. s. the u. k . u, along with countries like australia, canada, japan of all imposed over 16500 sanctions just on russia. now is that the next, the opportunity for the americans to go after the chinese? i mean, if that doesn't work, they go back there other technique which is steal, strangle, and sanction. and they will try to do everything they can to sanction china into. and i believe in likely, of attempted unsuccessfully to do with russia, the americans, when they want to stir up trouble, they will, i mean, this is china's tie one here. they should just go back and look at the communicate many decades ago. they're agreements that they would not arm or even come near taiwan. and once again there's during the problems,

it's the playbook. we've seen this playbook time and time again. i think america at this time is running out of nations to actually evade switzerland has announced that a so called piece some of the new crane will take place in mid june without russian participation. this was for administer, alleges they try to, to involve moscow if you need be a big look at it. this has gone through. we spoke to off to ukraine. of course is ross, because the peace process can be done without russia, even if it won't be there. from the very beginning, in january i spoke with a russian foreign minister and made clear to him, but ross, i should participate in the process. from all points of view is, however, the russian embassy in switzerland denies receiving an invitation to take part in such a sum as moscow has repeatedly stressed that peace talks on the plan complex cannot produce results unless russia is involved in its interests. are respected,

foreign minister, a circuit live. rob says recent swiss actions have discredited its rule as a mediator with version you. most of we can no longer perceive this platform us to the neutral switch. so it has thinking and open the anti russian stance. well, what kind of mediation can that be? they are now trying to impose their mitigation ukraine, and nothing will come of it. this is not a play of who can be trusted. the upcoming summit is expected to be held in accordance with the so called zelinski piece formula that's backed by the west ukranian president, once russia to roll back to its post soviet border from 1991, which moscow has completely ruled out a similar summit last august. also excluded russia under the same formula and ended with nothing to show for it. we mould over these seemingly hopeless approaches the piece with our guest here on the program on wednesday. it is unfortunate that this switzerland's initiative does not include russia because for any piece stopped

without having rush as a table will be a few times you attempt the swiss version of the piece talk. i think it's testing to failure before it even stops in that sense. it's unfortunate, eventually may be proven to be a waste of time. so the most all it's to get you excited to. i seems to be starting to be a special mucho by here shortly. and this gets a little bit closer. you can see that cities around has joined the west in would think sanctions again, is the rationale to do it and has joined the countries that have been providing support as to where that is suppose to ukrainian to go for it. so you can see that uh you could, uh, uh, seduce it on the list or if you try to fit in this matter, i don't think we have the best country plus cuz he has to meet with us on debbie

best the country supplement negotiations. so they are not the best, but it is probably, it was yes and there are many and ship it to make this process in a brand. many efforts to do is many going to is there a way or many efforts from easy, easy to visit ends are administer your uh on uh, context. uh uh, so i went down the robes in auto bleed is there are many uh, forms and the initiatives from, uh, uh, come through zillow, it would, sure is, it also puts it in, it was that 6 the front is and to make good integrations. and to make a statement was that for this gross is by negotiations behind the open and going to get a given motors best for the day. i know it is the right time to call for the real legal stations, fall off and do green and rush out to douglas slate. the sincerity to reach

a ceasefire to stop all hostilities, for example, and to install peace and restore peaceful construction and reconstruction. the current in for administered to meet your to labor has said that quote, nice and quiet diplomacy didn't work as key of as pushing the west to deliver more patriot air defense of batteries. but it's not the 1st time or reluctance to send extra weaponry, has been met with ukraine's discontents. as archie contributor rachel marsden explains a page wanting a dump so fast and a relationship they are headless. then just talk about your partners, private messages to other people, but you creating and present environment as lindsey did one better than that with german chancellor or schultz is he talked about them to the western press, which then reveal them to the entire world. and well, they make it sound like shoals grow, man, and presumably thinks about torres missiles like a toddler thinks of his favorite security blanket. as far as i understand,

the chancellor believes that since he's a representative for a non nuclear state, this is the only weapon the germany has. it is the most powerful. he shared messages with me saying that he cannot leave his country without such a powerful weapon. but according to various press reports, germany has 600 terraces and could lose a 150 of them to crane and barely notice. and it's all in germany, isn't under nato's collective defense umbrella. so what's really going on here with this discrepancy between what schultz tells the public and what he says to zalinski in private, quick reminder, the shots has previously said that he can give key of the tourist as because they've required german personnel soldiers to babysit them, which would mean sending troops to crane to something that he says he doesn't want to do, because it will lead to an escalation against russia as would giving he had the ability to hit targets deep inside russia at the tourist. his range of 500

kilometers, which is more than double those of french scout missiles and british storm shadows, which are currently at kids disposal. that's just an investment system because regarding this weapon system, i believe they've given its impact and location of application cannot be used without control. and that the participation of german soldiers cannot be justified even outside of ukraine. that's why i said, i don't think they are uses justified and that the question is not how to do it, indirectly or directly. my answer is clear, not sending. the taurus is really the only thing that seems to be allowed themselves to still clean to the fantasy of germany, not actually being involved in military actions against russia. what's kind of to wait. it's not like germany hasn't blown all the junk out of its weapons closets and shifted all over the ukraine is hand me downs and exchange for cash from brussels to me. shiny new hardware for itself. if you can try getting its friends to go through their closets for ukraine. unfortunately,

are in strokes of patients systems on now quite exhausted. we need an overview of all patriot systems in europe and worldwide to see where we can click to deliver something to ukraine. kansas constantly brow beaten berlin from the very outset of the complex to get more involved back in may 2022. you crazy bachelor and jeremy called schultz, a quote, sulky river sausage, for not doing a pilgrimage to keep like is western calendar parts of done. seems like the western countries cause playing. ukraine are literally pretending that they are ukraine, nbc here. that's even better deal now that the free tax care has to replace junk weapons. free crane is drying up journeys. focus on using ukraine to shore up. it's military spending at home comes only after blowing bank on things like you mandatory and spending for keep putting it on the number one country on the list of well, 41 other suckers with nearly 3000000000 out the door to ukraine just for that alone

. but hey, winter me have a street over its own industry by shrinking off the north steam attack on its cheap rushing gas supply, leading to an over dependence on price. here americans liquefied natural gas shipments. the buddhist bank is now saying that the country's economic recovery is stalling and probably will get worse even before this fiscal forwarder ends. so it looks like germany is pretty, it's checks on weapons manufacturing now, which doesn't sound banana repub, d doff. but apparently now that germany has decided to focus on himself shows as having a hard time bobbing off stage 5 player zalinski who can't stop obsessing over salts dismiss. all right, well for those of you who are with us at the start of the program, you saw the russian unger, a 5 unmanned super heavy class space rock to successfully blast off from the viscosity cosmos room in the countries far east. the

that was the moment right there. it's the 1st several launch of this rocket from that facility, both of which were fully designed and built in post and soviet russia to previous ignition attempts earlier this week for postponed at the last minute for technical reasons. the longer a is a cargo carrier that can lift an unprecedented payload in ser earth's orbit, where russia is planning to build a new space station. and this is actually the 4th time this rocket has gone to space. so the previous launches were made from the much older plus that's causing the jerome in northern russia. younger it has now completed this mission, traveling more than 250 kilometers away from the source of the surface of our planet. hitting the top speed of a whopping 27000 kilometers per hour. all right, well just stay with our to international up next. continuing the documentary series, the trustful about julian assange and the we can lead controversy bye the

the, [000:00:00;00]

the the, the 2nd superseding and doesn't involve 18 charges, which include 17 charges under the espionage act. and one charge under the c. s. a policing dining room relates to the 2010 which he likes publications, so collateral matter publication. the rules of engagement, rock the diplomatic cables, the whole long, same respect of iraq and afghanistan and the guantanamo bay files. we filed a legal challenge against that expedition, which was heard over the course of around 18 months. we raised concern about a piece of process related to the spine on us as his legal team, and on julian and his medical professionals. the way in which the united states is described,

the facts in order to justify his expedition. we also raise concern about the application of the u. k. us treaty, that treaty prohibits x regarding someone for a political offense. the united states has applied for his extradition, but is treated as a criminal in this clause car to this is, julian is a dangerous terrorist who's going to flip out on a k installed gunning everyone down in the cold. i was sitting up in the gallery watching this astonishing spectacle of injustice and order to talk to his lawyers. he had to kneel down, fresh, easy that's across. so

a cause here was they had to say and to tell people is absurd. it makes it very difficult for us these legal team to take instructions from join when he's sitting behind us, we have to be constantly watching to see if he's got instructions on what's happening during the course of the hearing. and it's very difficult to talk to him in a secure and confidential way, because in order for him to communicate to us, he has to say it loud enough so that the people next to us can often hear it's our opposing counsel. that's unsatisfactory, of course. and when we made an application, now legal team identification during the course of the hearing to have him sit with them. it was denied the case of the case of the case brought against him. this is what i would call punishment by price this. we are doing our best to push back on this using legal
