[000:00:00;00] the the breaking news on our t ukraine confirms as intelligent services are supporting separatists in africa. this comes as a wagner pmc fighter looking to share the evidence died in a recent class in molly and also a has unity in politics has collapsed. europe has given up on protecting its own interest unit today for those the us democratic policies, political incest, and does nothing else. and gary and prime minister victor armand slams the you for selling itself out for the sake of us interest as washington signals unbending support for

t a. with another $200000000.00 aid package and the state of these will will not and cannot lift this pass, our response will come and it will be harsh. as is rarely prime minister, vile is revenge for the alleged has the goal on heights attack on saturday, the idea of strikes, towns in southern lebanon, are part of the injures several civilians. the you're watching are to international live and the rest of the capital. i'm rachel. ruble, we'd start with breaking news, an admission from ukrainian military intelligence that they provided information to separate his forces in molly, which allowed the rebels to ambush a convoy with a wagner pmc fighters in the west african nation last week. cube claims that it's acting with in the framework of international law. a bishop assigned to the fact that the rebels received the necessary information that allowed them to conduct a successful operation against the wash and war criminals. the whole world has

already seemed this. in principle, this can be commended on we certainly will not disclose any details, but let's say there will be a continuation. this is sensitive information. therefore, everything that you claim does is happening within the limits and within the framework of international law. taking into account all the necessary procedures is a shame. the one of our 2 is independent sources have confirmed the presence of ukrainian mercenaries on the african continent, and that a wagner fighter who was prepared to show proof of the involvement was killed in recent clauses. in molly, the violence broke out last week between a separatist group and the country's army which has been collaborating with wagner or russian paramilitary group. both sides have confirmed the casualties and online video showed numerous bodies alongside army vehicles enveloped in smoke. my colleagues associated taylor discuss ukraine's involvement in africa. with our correspondence, steve sweeney. he was sent this exclusive footage of what appeared to be ukrainian

soldiers operating on the ground in multi. now, the crane has now admitted that it is allied with rebels in that country, helping them to target russians to as molly, as part of the wagner group that to help the fight against that protest against terrace, across the saw hill regent. now, in attendance on monday, and very useful who is a representative of the main intelligence director. now he admitted that ukraine have supported to reg separatists that against russian fighters. now he said that the rebels received necessary information, which i bought a successful military operation. i guess what he describes as a russian war criminals and he added, what would they call, discuss the details at the moment, but there's more to come now. the to read rebels. they were pictured holding up the cranium flag alongside the 2 reg set produced flag allegedly on the grounds in

molly, this was according to the key of post. now one of the fighters from the to a group. now he posted on line a message in ukrainian, and he described both sides of the cranial fighters as brothers in the fight against russia. a message to create new brothers. dear ukrainian brothers, read the armed forces of cspi epa, one to express, also directly with your fight against russian criminals. we have captured a significant number of wagner as mercenaries, and we like to hand or these captives to you as a sign of support and sold the already. this gesture is intended to help you in your fight for justice and freedom. we hope that this will contribute to the strengthening of our ties and our shared victory with all support the cpg. be it armed forces. this isn't the 1st time he's reached out to cab, and he's offered to hand over what he describes as prisoners of war. and now there are varying estimates of the debt. so in the, in this bottle, molly would i say around 10 people were killed, the set participate,

but much higher figure. i'm reporting so i'm very 5 reports suggest somewhere between 20 and 50. were killed in this bottle over the weekend and we've seen the gruesome footage now circulating online evolve devices you described how that bottle took place from july 22nd through july 27th, 2020 for the mountain armed forces service, men and fighters of the 13th a sole detachment of the wagner bmc. 4th fears. battles in the vicinity of the settlement of things out to him with militants, from the carbonation of as or what the movements and the terrace group. ok, the in the saw how band in the russian federation, over the next 2 days, the radicals increase the number of mass of attacks using heavy weapons, you avi's and suicide vehicles, which result in losses on the part of the wagner, p. m. c. and the mailing armed forces, as we just heard, he mentioned, wagner forces fighting against our kite a in the saw hill region. of course,

i'll call you to an internationally recognized and bond terrorist organization. now ukraine claims to be operating within the framework of international law. and of course that's incredibly open to chatting, bearing in mind, but he's fighting alongside our kite, a bonded to nashville terrorist organization. and there's an element of double standards it play here. of course you crazy and forces are fighting alongside set participate, molly? yes, they denying those same very same step which is forces within their own country. now who they all been hired by these western private military companies as proxy forces. we know that they've been operating in africa and other regions for quite some time. of course, they're on the ground that was we heard earlier teaching the african set produced how to fly drugs, so they can kind of out more targeted attacks of course is logical that they would hi, ukrainian forces for this because they have experience and they said phones come back

technique due to the conflict on getting that, but this isn't the only arena that ukrainian forces operating. and we know that the or that reported at least to be fighting alongside circle with syrian rebels for that. they mean, i'll call you the, i'll know, so i told her i'll shop of on the various very out of jihad, his proxy organizations. they have and that fighting against russian forces which have been invited into the country by damascus to help fight against terrorism. and the also these obligations that ukrainian forces are fighting in so don, the oldest makes, the statement by law them is that let's be made last november. and when she spoke about relations with african nations, what makes this all the more bizarre, extreme of award amount of studies. if we talk about a strategic partnership between us and any african state, it should be based on mutual respect. relation should be based on respect for

territorial integrity and sovereignty respect for your language and traditions. so that he is speaking about strengthening relations and he's speaking about the solvency of african nations. yet the same time, he's actively working to undermine the territorial integrity of molly and other countries. but what has to ask at this point, then any reaction yet from ukraine's patrons, it's biggest allies in the west as well. the house being the pentagon has responded to all to you and it said, well, we are aware of the situation but have nothing to offer on this. the u. s. was not involved in the operation. now, of course, molly, along with other companies in the saw have a legion with a very recently take talk french forces. they've taken a very firm stand against the west. now again, he's a case of double standards, the us, the u. k. and other countries, the western countries on the one hand that fighting games set produced in ukraine,

they're opposing solvent and see for the people of don't boss. but hey, they all fighting with set produced in africa and other nations when it suits their interest. let's press live now to veteran war correspondent, elijah magneer. eliza, good to have you on the program with us to have has now officially recognized it is sharing intelligence with separatists in molly, despite the denials ukrainian media outlets were making yesterday. so what do you expect them to do now? thank you for having me. it is not uncommon to see you mess and there were a landing there weapons and expertise and different countries when they do not represent for themselves the interest of their own country. and the case of few great and ukraine is under the control of the us and nato, and is not operating outside these folders for its own benefit because they're all

no strategic benefit for ukrainian to gain 5 outside to grade when the us lack of been filed a grain it sense, therefore we understand that working alongside the car, the in the sauce and not read it to me, is it not for the did national intelligence community that days last by the us. and it's all nice and yes, that is to mean the benefits from using mess and read off another state as a proxy engagement to the cost effectiveness, the operation that fits the ability to locate expertise. and do we use that to use the risk that they can offer because they offer it there in cost the us getting together and to conduct that operation. big local and all that happens is in concert adversity practice suspect from that all these all back to good victories.

in fact, because the tax for ukraine to go to syria and be embedded with a car, the whole just drive it live and other parks in the middle east of syria, where the americans are in control of this here with the steps as to be also lacking in body, it's really, there is no name between the ukrainian benefits as a state ukraine and the operations beyond. so it's obviously they are working for and not in service. and the name is mainly not to expose. for example, in this case, the denizens to a direct and fight direct engagement with the rest of the witnesses and to say, well, we don't have to do with russia. we have won the russian forces, whatever they off. and this is not the direct american in both allies. so what kind of reaction do you think what we'll see from the allies in the west knowing that

ukraine is cooperating, cooperating with militant groups in africa because the us has publicly denounced that the molly and terrorist activity. so it was. so what do you think the dynamics are here? i don't think there is going to be any reaction because we've seen in the past nato and the british, the french, the mannequins collaborating with kaiser in syria for example. and they have supported at the possibility of a failed state device goes and so forth. if i call you the idea about the strong was part of isis, and it has split from isis and became attached or tied up in the event. and then it went soto because they want to be more independent and we see very close connection between the west and the lead to all used to be i system here. and then the guy they, me and now we hit the head of the opposition in syria. that how about the 290 been

collaboration with all the on the eyes of the us. therefore, it is not unusual for the british and french to work alongside the mountains with the car. i don't want they need them. and when they needed them to go to ship them to the guys that they moved them from rock got those kinds of stuff to find the power button. so the use or for the county that the terror screw is not. and usually not something you for the americans. and it's certainly not shopping for the french forces were present in molly to help fight against terrorism, but authorities kicked them out now with ukrainians. helping separate us to factions. what do you think the ultimate goal is of key of what, what's the trying to achieve to what your thoughts on a very sensitive point here for us has been kicked out of a book you the possible my the and the chair and the forward to use the austin,

even the americas to leave the country. therefore, supporting the separate is in africa. it's a way to remain at to controlling and have some prizes in the country. so when, even when they go to sit down and support one faction against another, this is a middling and they've done that affects optic, got an inch to die. therefore, we understand that for the, if there is no interest, because at the end of the day yet is not conducting the war against russia. it's nato in, from st. germany that is conducting the war at the american store. the us and the pentagon said we are 50 country conducting the world. so the presence of key of forces missionary outside ukraine is again, not under the leadership of the ukraine. but i'm the, there's either chip alternate to for nature or interest and not with that because

it's very painful to kick off the waste from mexico. and then for the applicant to say, we want another more than like russia, china and other countries who can offer something to us. because we in the way of the story of the african resources for many decades. and now the advocates all waking up and they were on another kind of collaboration with other state and other countries who can offer something for the beneficial of the african population. by having you crane outside ukrainian mess and the re outside to crate. it doesn't make any sense, but it makes sense for logan had given these guys to us and so lives to remain and keep a footprint in africa. and so then been syria where they can and harassed the forces because they all right. see the forces. i've got that he's not in agreement with the local government on the country. they look for

a soft style. good. and then go and can. and not could people just to make sure that me just talking about them. so looking for soft target, that's an act of terrorism. they not really helping anyone because of tied, that has lost the biggest major plan to attack the fall. i mean me because the americans are off to leave africa. they all ask not to remain there with the west. so the doctrine of a guy that dislike the fall, i n e is no longer present and is no longer a narrative that they're kind of kids are staying there. it is all the they are working for another force. all right, and we're gonna live with our lives. have magneer, veteran war correspondent, eliza, thank you for your time. thank you for having back in the us. the white house has approved another $200000000.00 aid package for ukraine. the arms bounty includes more air defense systems, ammunition for him. mars and anti tank weapons. and as washington doubles down on

his support for key of the hon. gary and prime minister has taken a method you, which he describes as waltzing it to america's tune and sacrificing its own interest in the process. the family plays the pay and politics is collapsed. europe has given up on protecting its own interest. europe today for those the us democratic parties, political interests and does nothing else. well, another round of you fight club has broken out. you could say this time between hungry and poland. so how did it all kick off? well, or i'm on late into poland during the speech at one of these summer universities that political parties in various european countries tend to have to kind of rally the troops before they all head back to the political school yard in september. and in that address or bond pretty much suggested that poland was doing washington's bidding, and basically serving as its primary lots and lands catcher in europe,

you could say and helping america to beat germany on the blow. busy playing field as a result of obsessing over, sticking it to russia. he also suggested that with poland essentially putting all the covers to itself. it was also shifting the balance of power in europe from the traditional paris for lynn access to one that actually involves poland and it's baltic and scandinavian neighbors, london, and t as well. that did the trick polish and hungry and officials responded by basically taking it into the parking lot. in public view, polls are conducting hypocritical policies. they criticize us for our relations with the russians, and they themselves conduct business with russia through intermediaries. i've never seen such report chrissy, we do not do business with russia and like prime minister melbourne who is on the margins of international society,

both in the european union and the to i don't really understand why hungry wants to remain a member of, you know, is ations that it doesn't like so much. if you don't want to be a member of a club, you can always leave. the reaction proves the proverb which says nothing hurts like to choose. the current policy government is criticizing us for importing oil from russia, which is absolutely necessary for the functioning of the country. but if you look carefully at the list of clients of one of the largest russian oil companies, you will definitely find both there. so these traded barbs are really ramping out. poland is now pretty of everything that you can think of pretty much like hey, didn't mock the dog a month ago? didn't take out the garbage. when i asked you saw you looking at that girl at the mall? by the way, do you not remember that? yeah, the girl at the mall is apparently russia because the polish parliament's european affairs rep is now getting in on the action and publicly posting on social media a letter that he and his counterparts from other european countries road to hungry

just a few days ago, saying that or bon was quote impeding piece for ukraine with his piece missions going, this is always the puts in trump, nato, china, azerbaijan. meanwhile, poland is loading up on american weapons for peace, of course, which is kind of like loading up on birth control for virginity or bon also tor, into germany, accusing it of lacking curiosity over how north stream got blown up and your it's cheap rushing gas supply along with it was the remaining silent on the blow up of the north street. even germany is raising no voice against the power, the american name, friends, terror acts as home their own assets. and we say nothing, no investigation. we don't want to clear the facts, so questionnaire legally dislike angle. americans want shopping held by denmark. we didn't ask the right way. this is nothing more than an active submission. all right,

so colin's foreign minister rather slides that course guardian on this pile up. he said that hungry is quote, irritating, everyone else in europe, we're talking to hear about the same guy, right. a slab sikorsky who actually wrote on twitter quote, thanks to usa with a picture of the blown up north stream pipeline in the immediate wake of that attack. and more recently proposed to the foreign affairs officials that were supposed to be meeting and hungry at the end of august as a result of hungry hosting. busy rotating the presidency so that maybe they should just be needing up into yes. yeah, that's what provocative at all. big mystery why or bon might be upset and taking off the gloves in public. seems like these guys have been playing footsie under the table for quite

a while. we're just starting to see the results of that. now the 3 people have been injured in the southern lebanese village of firemen on monday, amid the escalation of tensions between 11 on and israel. the assault that hit civilians and set cars of blazes believed to be made by is really drums, separate attacks are reported to have taken place in the town. so tuning and the ship bomb and follow the as really permanent interest promise of a harsh response to hezbollah. as alleged attack on golan heights on saturday. the militant group denies responsibility for the depths of 12 people in that strike a cindy, not the same. the state of these will will not and cannot let this pass. our response will come and it will be harsh since october 7th, there has been a simmering war between whose belie in men and on and israel box very not a week goes by where they're not sending unmanned vehicles and is really citizens and soldiers have been killed and it will strikes back getting his blog government

as well. but over the past few weeks, things have gone way out of control, as we know from the treasury that happened emotions soc, johns, and right now, the american embassy 11 on issue a declaration calling for all the citizens to leave love it on, recommend us citizens develop a crisis plan of action and leave before a crisis begins, should commercial air not be available. individuals already in lebanon should be prepared to shelter in place for long periods of time. in addition to which looked on the altar and airlines have held up any slides to israel or to 11 on giving the rising tensions. this has been going on for awhile. and the problem is, is that his black claims, they don't want a full scale war. israel claims they don't want a full scale war. both of them claim they don't want to play chicken, but indeed they both are playing chicken, isabella themselves had reported they were moving around from their different locations. they're smart robinson, smart missiles, visuals,

the fact 11 on making the response fun force with smart missiles that has a great range that can hit television, where i'm reporting from right now. now, on the attack that happened on saturday morning where there's been a missile killed 12 children. let's not forget to go on high and mountain terrible on our adjacent to each other and marshal shops is on mount vermont. so it seems most likely he was trying to hit the military installation on mount him on and missed and hit motion shots, which is a drew's body of models, as they call them, cells a drew's village, killing 12 children whose real needs to respond for many different reasons one, and they just can't let this go without payback, so to speak. and also the drew's, the body model, the model shots that of course, the countries are demanding for revenge. is it packaged by law for the killing of 12 of their children and wounding $44.00 of their communities. so israel has no

choice to respond, but even is old. doesn't want a full scale. what is there is a full scale regional war. it is clear, a thousands of this really is will die is while it has over a $150000.00 missiles and thousands of amenities as well. people will die as well. so the trick is the balancing act that time. is there nothing you all have to do is how hard can you hit factors? well, i never on without triggering a whole regional war as this war in gaza continues. there are reports that military police investigators rated a detention facility in southern israel on monday. we're palestinians are being held and reportedly abuse. what do you know about the investigation so far? do there isn't military base and this out very close to bear shut our southern city, called se came on and there been many accusations coming out over the past few months. from whistle blowers is really soldiers that have served their claiming that is really soldiers have been abusing. tell us citizens, when i say accost city is of course i mean gardens, people who came out from the home also talking october 7th,

and other dozens that were caught up in operation sweeps said he is really army. did some of the accusations claim that the prisoners have their hands tied together so tightly, they lost blood flow in their hands? how to be amputated after being in that position for many, many days? none of these acquisitions have improving, but many files and investigations have an open. what happened recently was today was that one of the prisoners was abused sexually. he was brought to the hospital in uh, in uh, um, in the south and uh they went in the military police went in to not arrest, but the chain for questioning a, as well as soldiers that soldiers are not ordinary soldiers, an age of 18 to 21, they are military reserves, people who traditionally older, more mature, more responsible. so it was quite surprising that they were reserved soldiers and when they went into the chain, them quite to make out. and they resisted being detained. and then a member of connected to code from the when they design is move and he's

a member of connect said broke into the military detention campbell along with his followers and tried to fight with the military police and they abuse a couple of drew, listen to this is really very bad and i do know that the prime minister of israel and the president of israel and gone himself, has condemned to what they did to the military police and military police have to do their job and investigate any claims of abuse. slovakia will cut off the diesel fuel supplies to train if a cube does not restore the transit of brushing oil, the prime minister robert feed, so as that won't change that stance on the war. new crane part. so that allows you to escape. he says, who could i in the transit of russian oil, 3 crane will not be restored, soon, slow enough to will no longer continue its supply of oil to ukraine, which covers want that so the training and consumption. so this guy will say, very openly, even the problem with the korean transit of russian oil cannot change all stats and war and ukraine, you know,

great as well as the vodka and the hungry have been hit hard by kias decision to sanction russia's look oil pipeline which has cut off energy supply. the eastern e u members hung gary and official slammed the cranes move calling it blackmail for the position hungry. and so like it took on russia's special operation, a new crane, a claim. as soon as the aid has rejected, the you imposed sanctions on russian oil in 2022 but allowed exemptions for slovakia, hungary and the czech republic. this the lot government has called on the european commission to urgently, urgently address the matter. all right, i'm joins now live by economist in budapest, metropolitan university professor richard runner, professor. good to have you on the program with us. what do you countries have suffered the most from the shortage of russian oil since 2022. and how hasn't had an impact on the union in general, as well as the, the biggest country is the most effective relocates and not just the oil,

but also gas supply and scathing germany. and which it was forced under use pressure to cut off the russian. all suffice, russia, as you know, is continuing to offer to review supplies because when the, the north stream to pipeline was subject to a terrorist attack. and everyone suspects the us investigations if the whole to by the gym government knows who it was. anyway, one pipelines, vitality for and rushes, also to resume that the gym is not allowed to do that. so the overall picture has, of course, being one of those economic dissolves to germany's being rapidly. the industrialized economies being down was performed in an old you know, european countries. and one of the weather has developed a tester life of countries. whereas russia is thriving, as i explained because the sort of sanctions, actually,

the country that has so many results is, has people, has technology, is actually will stimulate the economy. and so is being really backfiring. um, only europeans who have made to, to suffer under these u as in post sanctions. but they've been exemptions, as you mentioned, the probably measures for hungry and sl vakio, they continued so funds originally and to receive all supplies from new going on from russia. but that's now being stopped unilaterally by you train. and that's been quite a surprise to these countries. does that create a problems in the area? and so if i can economy was that's why i'm wondering how did to of sale to consider the consequences when they introduced this ban on russian oil, especially given that ukraine ultimately wants to become part of the european union . yes, exactly. well,
