[000:00:00;00] the russia repelled a slew of us made vessels over the crime and bridge on wednesday, moscow's defense minister says he of is trying to justify its losses on the battle grounds with western background sites targeting civilians. race guilty as charged. donald trump lashes out at the new york port after it can take some of the so called a hush money trial, making them the 1st of the former president and us history ever are to be a convicted felon. a warning, disturbing images are, has as and is rarely striking another refugee camp and dogs, the claims 11 more palestinian lives. we look at how tel aviv is so quick to dismiss such incidents as tragic mistake.

the i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. this is our t international, a huge silva of ukrainian missiles targeting the crime in bridge was intercepted by russian forces on wednesday. as, according to the defense minister who said cabs attempts to strike civilian infrastructure show it's the western sponsors only want to escalate the war. further, but your least of all, i would like to report that just on wednesday that was the most massive 10 rounds of tax on the crime in bridge with the flight time of less than 2 minutes. for the missiles was shut down, deprived of the opportunity to seize the initiative on the battlefield. the key of raising him continues to demonstrate to his western responses, its ability to damage the russian federation by striking civilian infrastructure. the west is urgently pumping weapons into the crane, transmit thing, intelligence,

training, ukrainian service events and recruiting must embrace. and this main, russia is continuing its special ministry operation and on its goals will certainly be achieved as a result of all actions and important areas in the hall co region. the enemy has retreated by 8 to 9 kilometers this month. the line $28.00 supplements have been liberated in total, 880 square kilometers of 10 are treat, have come under the control of the russian army this year. the russian army forces are systematically reducing the combat potential all the a f u. in may the enemy last mold them $35000.00 service men, and $2700.00 units of various weapons among them and $290.00 tanks and ahmed combat vehicles, including full abrams 7, the leopards, and 12 bradley's. while ukraine attempts to ford russia's battlefield gaines, the russian army has pushed kids out of it, strongholds and several directions of the front line, including and don't ask her son. and hark off. right?

yeah, well according to moscow, russian artillery fire has destroyed a number of cubes, outposts, and struck, and cranes had munitions, depos and vessels on the right bank of the nina after a river. these operations have allowed the russian infantry to advance russian forces made significant headway on the battlefield in april and may r t that goes down on takes a closer look at the russian progress and the way it's been met in the west. a new tile of a hand getting sky vote chance. could you imagine that the entire topography of the ukrainian conflicts is woven out of anonymous villages, single story towns and unimpressive tapestry. the key is made into a moss grave. when it's been the idea of torques. if the brain does not want to negotiate, they cling to getting something and turning the situation around on the battlefield . they can't do it. and the motor attempts, there are the more losses there will be. and these losses are far from being in

favor of the ukrainian armed forces. russia has been on the offensive for months. what began in the nets career, public escalated into a for middle success, a few 100 kilometers to the north. when russian troops, once again pushed across the border into the side of region, russia's new military group, north, advanced, and strides that in early may. as it took about half of the town of bo chance under control, ukraine's daily losses surpassed a 1000 men adding up to the already catastrophic death tool. it's absurd, it's utterly tragic. 500000 ukrainians, dead for nothing. if you ask any of this senators for as i have who voted to keep this, we're going with us tax dollars. how many of your beloved ukrainians have been killed? they have no idea and have no interest in knowing and they don't care at all. and sometimes they say they don't care rushes operation of the news spread. the already stretched ukrainian troops even in that cave,

had to re deployed it. soldiers from other parts of the front to the defense of height of ukraine, 2nd largest city, and some of cubes, long held stronghold fell like dominos, the villages of and they've got into shift. one of the few localities we taken by ukraine last year. once against what sides russia, we also had success in the back. so for the key city of chess of yacht seen as the gateway to the rest of the nets, group, public territory still occupied by ukraine and well keeps allies do put on a brave face. they admit russia might be not too far from punching. further through ukraine's melting defense has taught mixed it's more urgent now is that the war has changed. villages and towns continue to to change hands major general authority by the heat of which he informed us of the situation on the ground to which remains

very difficult to get the whole. the key will somehow managed to turn the tables. still flake is in vassals. not only is ukraine closer than ever to flying. it's fast f. 16 fighter jets. he'd have been getting green. likes to use ne, to supplied weapons against targets on internationally recognized russian territory . looking to invest exact. and although we're staying exactly within the same framework, we think that we should allow them to neutralize the military sites from which the missiles are fired. and basically the military sites from which you crane is attacked. good. get the forms officer for the prison has been attacked and is allowed to defend itself. i find it strange when some people argue that it is not allowed to defend itself and is not allowed to take the necessary measures to do so . both got belong to them because of the host weapons that we're transferring to ukraine to not have any use restrictions. the greetings can fight the way they want . and i think this is a very, very important aspect of this donation. but as the western nations scrambled

together in the face of one front line dissolves to offer another, they will also ask uncomfortable questions to the bras and key if they've been very busy looking for a full guide over the crumbling defense of the how to region over 2 years concrete fortifications with 3 flows of depth should have been established on the credit and border, and they will not even any of landmines. we're coming to the conclusion that this was either because of in saying set to deliberate sabotage with every passing day ukrainian. no socrates apparently lose the grip on the reins of governance to the west and sponsors of the war. wild self proclaimed president zalinski is now the fact so, ag. sure. but of power, according to his own country's constitution. what do you is certainly still good that is sending a fresh supply of cannon fodder to the front line slow to do

the the meanwhile, russia has so far refuted. the idea of a 2nd wave of mobilization replenish has its army ranks via a steady stream of volunteers. instead of the tongues and kidnappings most go has been incentivizing recruits through veterans benefits, tax cuts, financial support, social bonuses, and so on. and the cool has already been answered by hundreds of thousands of russians. how many is done of out see, i mean, awesome western media claim you as president joe biden has secretly given to permission to attack russian territory. is that border ukraine with american weapons? so far, 11 countries have given care of the go ahead to use their weapons for attacks on russian soil. and that's just by dependent on reaffirming that washington won't back

a sub strikes. there's been no change in our policy. the security assistance that we provide ukraine is to be used within ukraine, and we don't encourage attacks or unable attacks inside of russia. while the debate over cubes, arms use rages in the west rushes foreign ministry spokesman says ukraine's backers have long taken part in planning attacks on russia behind closed doors. he still does go out. he doesn't instead of the shy. so a talking about allowing the key of reasoning to carry out the strikes some western countries, the things that they will see whether or not to allow with some a saying that they are not allowing you to yet it school rubbish. it's not that they are allowing it, they have been orchestrating all the strikes on the territory of the russian federation by the hands of the key version. but for a long time, we need to tell us like it is really to many western media outlets are increasingly beating the war drums. francis lamond newspaper says washington's refusal to allow

kids to use american weapons to strike deeper into russia, undermines the reliability of the us within nato while apiece and the american foreign affairs magazine encourages washington to send even more arms, adding that key of should resort to guerilla warfare tactics on russian soil. ukraine must adjust the way it organizes eclipse, and thinks about the war switching out head on confrontation with russian forces for an a symmetric grill, a style approach. doing so well, no doubt, prolonged the fighting with a pivot to unconventional warfare offers the best chance for ukraine to chip away at rushing resolve. both on the front lines and at home. my colleague nikki aaron asked to 3 experts from different parts of the globe, where are the calls for peace among the western ramp up in your rhetoric? the one doing to ukraine is exactly what they are, what they did to syria. they would try and make the war longer, make it miserable for the people,

and they have just lost their and it is the final slides of believing monster they can just take it can never accept the idea that they are not. it's not only them on the international system. federalism can never be lost answer. remember, i lose a war in a place. this is what happened here in syria. the also is about foreign affairs. magazine pays and net, but turning to gorilla wolf would no doubt prolong the ukraine conflicts they signed to the 20 year loan us occupation of afghanistan. certainly an interesting comparison to meg. do you think he has himself really wants to drunk this out even though the folder be able to send well, is what i'm saying? the next best, more finish. sure. she all finished the stations and did you need to do it on or last evening? the new 3, any of this report? yeah, well this makes seem to get all these uh, these big part of florida appear to be sure the extent that google is the one who

mic the cd or i'll be you remember was to see the beautiful 13 have been know a, it's the, this been what the west west is ready for the last few green, you know, they cut out when on the battlefield. so what they're doing, they are trying to do terrorism. this is what they do already for a few months. so maybe if you years one or 2 years now, as a, you know, with the drawer text in belgrade, off, even in most guy we have them 2 years ago. and the ones who drank don't for many, many years because i don't think they will succeed because you know, rush, i will not be allowed to do so it'll be dragging on for a long time. your trade has been foaming targets, as we know. of course, don't boss on financing is, is even an even low and strong strikes much defect into russia. prices imperative has said that this cannot be done without direct western involvement. so how do you expect mosca to respond? especially now that many in the west of pushing for an escalation. i'm sure there

will be some retaliations because this cannot be done. i mean, this is actually not a is, it is a declaration of war and nothing really official, nothing ration, but it is a graduation of the west is totally radical lives. i mean you are, oh, there's no common sense anymore. there's no diplomacy anymore. they only speak about the agents, you know, as saying to their own citizens there, that they has to stuck up. everything recalls on the door, that's maybe it's coming. they are trying to recruit people. they want to pull the floor. and this is great. but what linset go home was talking about, he was sleeping with the that is the best deal for medical money that it could be at the beginning of the shield. so if you want to send me anything, the rest of this is the site the going all they do by doing the video is different

than the business. the more the one to the defense and manufacturing the dates we want. beverly donald trump has become the 1st former president and us history ever to be convicted of a crime. a new york and jury on thursday found him guilty on all 34 accounts in a so called a hush money trial. the republican front runner claims the entire case was ranked by the democrats, including president biden himself, and has vowed to fight the verdict. this is a trial, but there's a rig race. certainly an unprecedented day in american history. donald trump, the former us president, has been convicted on $34.00 charges of polonius. falsification of business records . now, never before a has a former us present been convicted and donald trump, not only is he a former president,

but here's the presumed nominee of the republican party in the election that is currently taking place in the campaign is happening and the election is set to take place on november 5th. however, donald trump will be sentenced on july 11th, and he could face up to 4 years in prison for each of the $34.00 accounts that he is convicted on. they could send donald trump to up to a 136 years in prison for allegedly falsifying business records. now the charges down from stormy daniels, the porn star, that was allegedly paid money by donald trump and exchange for not making statements about the president. during his presidency, during previous campaigns. uh, and she was a paid a $130000.00. now that payment itself is not illegal, but the it is alleged. and donald trump was convicted for a falsifying business records related to those payments. now, at this point, when you look at the case,

it seems like very much an example of what is ation of the us legal system. donald trump and his supporters and many others are looking on saying that this is normally a criminal matter that would be considered a misdemeanor. however, it was made into a felony and 34 accounts were filed against the former president and people see this is simply an effort to keep donald trump off the campaign trail as the election cycle is nearing its conclusion. now donald trump will be sentenced on july 11th, and it could be that he spends the remainder of his presidential campaign in jail following that. and people are looking on and saying this is simply an abuse of the legal process. now, some critics of donald trump say that donald trump is dangerous uh that, and that was a result of what happened on january 6th and his supporters storming into the capital after he was perceived as having the election stolen from him in 2020. this is necessary to keep him off the campaign trail to keeping out of the white house,

but many look on say this is blatant abuse and glued association of the us legal system that hurts the image of the united states around the world. the united states frequently brags about its legal system and how fair and how just it is, how much it respects human rights. people look at this case as blatantly the opposite of what the us claims a highly politicized legal process to serve a political and keeping an individual who might win an upcoming presidential election off the campaign trail and possibly out of office broadcaster. and the political commentators even ellsberg says the sole aim of the entire case was to stop trump from ever setting foot back in the oval office. not only is he the 1st former president, never to be convicted of criminal charges, but the biggest story is he's leading. he's the, he's the leading candidate to become the next president of the united states. this is not what we do in the united states. we read in the newspapers about the 3rd

world countries going after political opponents and locking them up doors or worse . but this, this was outrages. i can't believe that with a 34 account. uh, you know, the docket for jury took less than 12 full hours and found him guilty on every single account as they were reading the results. i'm sitting there shocked in, in, in my, in my living room watching a television shop. um, no, yes. i think that the donald trump has a good case. most every legal pundits that i hear and talk to says that on appeal this case will most likely be thrown out over turn. you name it, but you can appeal, it's that critical. you can't get a results probably before the election. so that's what's going to be the problem for donald trump. i'm turning the gaza now we're at least 11 people have been killed and the idea of strikes on the berries refugee camp in the central part of

the enclave. a warning disturbing images are ahead. local media reports claim to residential buildings in the area were head. the dead and wounded were mostly said to be women and children. those injured had been transferred to the officer hospital. the idea of has yet to comment on the attack. since the beginning of the war and october, more than 36000 people have died in the is really on slot on the enclave. israel has been quick to admit it's guilt in some of the attacks, but frequently dismisses them as tragic mistakes. r t 's. maria from ocean to picks up the story. a tragic mistake with also troubling paul turns as well. so cold, precise attack when a mass compound and southern guys are on sunday, turned out to be precisely wrong, leading to the death of at least $45.00 civilians. unfortunately, a tragic mistake happened last night. we are investigating the case will present

the conclusions because this policy, which was made even more warming its fall from the 1st such incident in nearly 8 months of the war in gaza. the idea of publicly admitted the mistakes that cost the lives of innocent people at least 6 times. in april, these really military killed 7 aid workers of to bomb and a convoy of the world central kitchen, international relief organization. even though the recalls were labeled with the agencies branding and they work was coordinated with these roles. the idea of cold, a serious mistake. one of the commanders mistakenly assumed that the gunmen were located inside the accompanying vehicles, and these were almost terrorists. those who approved the strike were convinced that they were targeting arm thomas operatives and not a world of central kitchen employees. in february,

at least 112 palestinians were reportedly killed and more than 700 others injured off to the idea of opened fire on a crowd of thousands awaiting the arrival of humanitarian trucks. the army initially denied shooting, but later the me to the troops felt endangered by the starving crowd of palestinians. we have opened an inquiry to examine the incident further, which will help us reduce the risk of such a tragic incident from occurring again during one of our humanitarian operations. last december on christmas, eve is rarely a strikes heat, a gas or refugee camp, killing more than 70 people and is really government spokesperson coded at regrettable mistake. the army claimed the wrong weaponry was used, causing expensive collateral damage. this was a regrettable mistake. this has not happened, the choice of munition was incorrect and not totally palestinians fall

victim to such mistakes. the idea of gun down 3 is rarely hostages. it was supposed to bring home. the man had just escaped from her mask, obtain a tea with waving white flags, well stripped down to the waste to show they were not armed, but the military mistook them for militants and opened fire. all 3 died on the spot . cool. so v i d x troops mistakenly identified 3 is radi hostages as a threat because of this is a tragic incidents which took place in a combat zone will. is that logic is randy brigadier general benson gruber says every death of a non competent is a tragedy. but he claims that proportion was speaking. these really military does a great job in gaza with only about so full song between one to sweep. when we were talking about the kid infinity and you know, once there was to play the video, as i mentioned, it's full time. this is unbelievable. number we'll talking about was of

a little the number of the one to 21 to 25 ones. though we still one and a maple $25.00 is the wishing of the lives, so avoid the cost of them as well. and hopefully to that even fills out in 6 that the so for me, except for me, these really army actually made plenty of so called tragic mistakes, long before the latest gas of one

the, every time these real size tragic errors, it's about an investigation to prevent such mistakes and the future, but that happens over and over again. some critics say the idea of always seems to have a convenient excuse, ready for whenever it kills civilians. while global calls for accountability and any question in of these really armies confidence, i met with strong resistance from israel and its allies tragic mistakes despite its claim of being the most moral army in the world. the idea of has made many of those over the years, taking the lives of hundreds of innocent people, military and civilian women, men and children, palestinians, as well as, as rarely citizens and foreigners. and as the warren guys are continues and this atmosphere of impunity persists,

the likelihood of future tragic incidents occurring remains very high. a waste notion of our t revolting from jerusalem. something of a power play is developing in west africa earlier this year, and new jericho at the eco was economic group. instead it was forming its own blog with breaking up also. and molly, and now that alliance of the health states has invited echo was to join it. but it comes as echo was, itself is trying to port its former members back into the fault. it is decided, so i can't be too provocative. but i want to ask echo was to join the alliance of south hill states. there are echo was countries that would probably like to join the alliance of sa hill states. because within the alliance is a culture of sovereignty and dignity of the continent. this bold and unexpected move means of different things to different people. some of questioning the move, well, i've is a seeing, it's as a positive step because a re entry often has

a peculiar fuss. so in my, into eco s was considered and has been talked about, but this is not to be in to of this the house days of which political observers in the region. i've already said it is unlikely. these all 3 countries which seem to have come to terms with a new reality, the configuration of the alliance of the house states. and also the timing of this called by the prime minister is also not surprising, especially considering that vehicle was a parliament intends to form an ad hoc mediation commitee aimed at reuniting news at my the and picking a fossil with the organization. but also between us also marty, and you have noted that space is in fact an organization like that of course did not commit to liberation for them. so they made the southern decision to establish themselves within a new allies which offers a new opportunity for the operation to the countries. not far from work in the fossil molly and this year have decided to create the alliance of the health states

. this alliance of the consecration or determination to arrest back our sovereignty so that as the hell is no longer his own up in security for his own, the prosperity for the good over people's this the how nations have been paid by multiple to see trade to 20 and so this, the exception of the allies, they have removed the imperialist armies from the soil and stood firm against the cities of a military invasion to restore near colonialism in new z. they've also opened doors for non weston empowers, such as russia, and that relationship extends beyond community support and in compasses, significant economy collaboration as well. and of course, the loss of any member from echo was, was that probably be still is expected to affect many aspects from trades economy development and a movement of citizens within the blog. but the decision by echo was to lift post to sanctions signals. it's reading this to negotiate and cultivate relationships

with these countries that regardless of whether they rejoined the organization or echo is countries i'm toying. realize as to how states like the prime minister is the car into the urging. and also we can say away from the fact that it cool was, was really struggling to sustain um, serious pressure on the military off of uh the so hell region and considering that tomatti bettina foster. and she will also, i'm the members when equal was, was fits up nearly 50 years ago when they announced the immediate withdrawal from a course in january of this. yeah, it was mainly due to dissatisfaction with the existing security academic task. so did all the heads of state of book enough also, the republic of molly and the republic of news yet have decided in full sovereignty to withdraw booking, alfonso, molly and these, yet from the economic community of west african states without delay, as some say, that was approved in decision because echo was suspended and sanctioned all 3 countries after the military cruise in an attempt to pressure them to return power

to democratically elected leaders like prison law mohammed presumed. but the spots of april was made of korea during that time. that with all these the house states, it would be more difficult to deal with many of the challenges facing the region. we're just waiting for the 3 member states who i must for piece the old important members of echo west. and without them it's going to be more difficult to deal with . many of the challenges facing the region, you know, terrorism. the whole issue of this a health, what is happening there and the collective gold in terms of free movements of people and all that is every reason to try healed the rest with the departed stays and success, lack of remaining elusive, most diplomats, an analyst over the past few months, seemed quite convinced that the nations returning to the blog, a happy relationship with each other, seemed very unlikely. but experts say one approach might be to seek agreements with alliance officer headed in states upon a framework for peaceful private tasted through sex. and if would been,

the lead is of both equity and the allies, my find ways to mitigate the home of the region and also the security and economy issues that the reason all facing. all right, i'll be back with much more news in about 30 minutes time. in the meantime, stay with our to international for inland divisions up next the
