2:01 pm
attacks by ukrainian militants on the course. regents carried out with weapons supplied by the west. uh, those are being looked at 500 on hundreds and hundreds of people have been a number of people out of the missing and our tooth correspondent reports from the heart of nairobi where demonstrators clash with police. send the man to the resignation of the canyon. presidents, the, i'm rachel ruble live in the russian capital. you're watching archie international . we start with breaking news coming in from russia's build, a rod which has reported late been attacked by ukraine, according to local authorities. one civilian was killed into 2 more injured and verified reports. say there have been several explosions to stay with our tvs. we continued to update you with the latest on this developing new story. so this comes,
2:02 pm
as kid has lost over $600.00 the troops and the curtis good region since russian forces began to repel the latest border attack. that's according to the russian defense ministry. speaking a new cranes that failed attempts to progress further into russian territory. during the day ukrainian forces last up to 400 soldiers and 32 armored vehicles since the beginning of hostilities and the cursed region. ukraine has suffered loss is up to $660.00 soldiers and $82.00 armored vehicles, including a tanks, basically personnel wise. that means about 2 thirds of the initial or a 1000 men. strong garrison of the ukrainian proves that cross the russian border, the ukrainian armed forces. they all know we do have reserves on stand by across the board in ukraine and that not all of them. in fact, most of them have being thrown into bottles. so it doesn't mean that the fighting is, is almost over. in fact, it's the opposite. it could be just the beginning,
2:03 pm
and we are waiting hear the response of the, of the ukrainian militants. and they'll be ukranian, come on to the destruction of the majority of their initial guys and by the russian troops. so it seems the situation is bound to escalate for them. well, interestingly enough, t of did not rush to coleman the efforts here in the course region. and uh, i mean, it is a large scale operation, but it makes us public a commentary by a high profile, the free and official. he has revealed that this opperation has the goal of basically strengthening ukrainian positions in the future. peace negotiations have a lesson. they, they have a war that is gradually moving deeper into russia. will the scale of them? yes. did they react to anything else besides fear? no, it is finally time to realize this. russia perceives any compromises weakness and
2:04 pm
readiness to me before it. and if you negotiate on rush them, they will still consider that they dominates, including indian negotiation process. they can be pushed only they understand that the war is not going according to their script. given the, again, the scale of the operation of flu, it's like this is the full in move spike key if, as they realized that they have lost ground in the height of regions, they are still rapidly losing the ground in the domestic region. and generally, all across the front, the situation is not bright for, for your brain. and these games that they have made in the 1st page and on to that they are trying to build up on. it seems like they're of only and it could be the finally short of the ukrainian authorities and they'll be ukranian, come on. it's a better deal with moscow. both the you and the u. s. claim that they were kept in
2:05 pm
the dark about this military operation by the ukrainian come on. but of the european union, a has repeatedly said that it resolves the rights for ukraine to defend itself. however, it means necessary. so they have, in general, supported this intelligence. the you continues to fully support ukraine's legitimate right to defend itself against the russian aggression and its efforts to restore its sovereignty and territorial integrity. ukraine has a legal right to defend itself, including striking and aggressor on its territory. so united states as well have said that they will be reaching out to cube for and the for an official party for their official position. and just for, for a comment as to what exactly is going on. but again, they did not condemn what has been going on here that you did not to about my civilian casualties. they did not talk about ambulance, at least one ambulance being hit. they did not talk about civilian cause and civilian homes being destroyed and specifically targeted by the ukrainian artillery
2:06 pm
and ukrainian small on spot. they completely ignore the fact that during the 1st 2 days of incursion, a whole monastery was destroyed while at least 15 people were taking shelter that it's not unusual for the ukrainians, not to notify us of their exact tactics before. um, before they execute them. sometimes we're in communications about them, sometimes we're not nets. it's appropriate for them to make those decisions all answer this way. nothing about our policy is change and with the actions that they are taking today, they're not in violation of a policy. so all this nato made and especially american produce, been supplied weapons use to this to destroy civilian targets, to kill civilians, to a life with military personnel that did not have fantasy violate any, any restrictions and anti red lines that washington had previously put in front of cuba now, as for the russian official diplomatic reaction, well, of these folks women for the russian ministry of foreign affairs marizza. how do i have said that in fact this minute to you in cash and does not really support and
2:07 pm
does not really reinforce kids. uh previous was in previous intentions that they indicated that they wanted peace. all these bloody crimes are taking place against a background of cynical silence on the part of the west, which continues to cover up for its puppets. in key of all this only strengthens the sense of impunity, of the ukrainian neo nazis for confident that they can get away with any atrocity we call on the international community not to stand by and to resolutely condemn the criminal actions of the key of regime a lot is its vague here to phlegmatic late, but again, the russian chief of the general stuff i need to get out of some of on wednesday was very adamant and unequivocal about what russia intends to do here. and that is to throw the ukrainian on forces back to the, to the board, the russia do is it does. so when it does so, then it could be in that key if it is over. but again,
2:08 pm
we cannot know what's on the secret maps on come on points. what lines generals on both sides have drawing on them, but we will certainly stand by here to report on the every developments former us army non commissioned officer, thomas penn, says the attack on purse is an attempt to, to sow the seeds of chaos and russia. and we're talking about the using a u. s. weapons that using german made weapons time the the, the idea that the washington was not informed to, of, to southern incursion into the territory of the russian federation is, you know, it's just that laughable search in washington knew what was going on here. there's definitely no way they weren't, they weren't informed or weren't aware and didn't approve it. so they're going to try to do anything that they, they can possibly do to stay. i look at, it was more of an attempt to create an internal pass with inside of the russian federation to aggravate the russian president vladimir putting
2:09 pm
a think they did want to try to force him into responding in some way that could potentially go on and more support from other nations in the world by the name of donations. they really want to throw him off his game and he's played it pretty well. so far he said enough to these guys had a steady hand. he has an over reactive. the most important thing in this con, what's us understanding what it's really about really about it's, it's really a conflict between united states and, and russia. and that's, that's, that, that's what's at the core, the, this conflicts, i don't think key of has much this thing in the matter. the idea that the didn't discuss this previous. so, you know, with washington that washington, no idea. it's just ridiculous on the face of it. the latest you and security council session rush, i condemn do cranes the recent attack on the curse to region, and that's military's use of western supplied weapons. moscow emphasized these
2:10 pm
actions are tantamount to state sponsored terrorism. the week of thursday, we are currently witnessing the terrorist methods 1st hand during the attacks by ukrainian militants on the course region. carried out with weapons supplied by the west. there was ample evidence online showing nationalists, deliberately targeting on arm civilians and destroying civilian infrastructure. in short, they are acting just like their nazi predecessors from 80 years ago, whom they now idolized and they will meet the same inglorious. and meanwhile, the western supporters of the zalinski soon to not only refrain from criticizing its terrorist actions, but effectively justify them. this is a true terrorist coalition. information has repeatedly been voiced by us, corroborated by representatives from african states and european law enforcement agencies like europe hall, regarding western supplied weapons to ukraine, ending up in the hands of criminal and terrorist groups in various regions around
2:11 pm
the world. let's cross live now to our t corresponding caleb mountain in new york. caleb take us through pulling on. do you have to say a sure the un security council meeting was called to discuss the threats of terrorism around the world and the russian, deputy, and bassett, or as you've just heard, condemned to the recent tax on the cursed region and condemn ukrainian militants, or using western supplied weapons engaging in state sponsored terrorism of violating international law. now, the russian deputy ambassador showcased evidence showing that the forces were deliberately targeting civilians and engaging in the targeting of civilian infrastructure and likening what they did to the crimes of the nazis committed. 80 years ago, russia emphasized its concerns about support for international terrorist organizations and the direct involvement and funding of terrorist organizations by western
2:12 pm
nations. russia specifically called out france for financially supporting militants on the african continent in moscow. accuse western countries of nurturing terrorism in africa and then using this terrorism as a free text for interventions. and they went on russia, specifically accused ukraine of supporting terrorist groups in africa. citing recent incidents where ukrainian officials endorsed attacks by him on malay and forces and admitted they had provided intelligence to the terrorist. then later took back this admission among those attacked in by the forces in molly and attacked in molly were the pmc wagner fighters. this is some of what we heard from the russian deputy ambassador speaking before the un security council. most of the there are blatantly agree just instances where certain states openly flaunt their support for international terrorist organizations in africa. know where the
2:13 pm
are the direct statements by the official spokesman for the main intelligence director of the ukrainian ministry of defense. andre use soft and ukraine. send. bassett, or to send a golf view already. people are asking about their country support for those who attacked molly. an armed forces at the molly algeria border near the town of tens, our teeny, from july 25th to 27th. we emphasized that this attack was also carried out by a group affiliated with al qaeda. the reaction from so health states was swift and was the african state strongly condemned ukraine support for international terrorism on the continent. and it's blayton interference in their internal affairs, the stabilizing the situation, malia niger as known, have separate diplomatic relations with ukraine. those people, even western media are now publishing materials indicating that terrorist groups operating and molly, or trained and drone piloting and handling explosives under the guidance of ukrainian special services,
2:14 pm
both within ukraine and in terrorist controlled areas of molly was stupid. now the u. s. representative speaking before the council gave statements condemning terrorism, but also defended the united states and its alliances. and when the u. s. representative spoke uh, he accused the rush of trying to deflect attention from its own atrocities against ukraine band simply did not address the blatant reality that was laid out before the council by the russian deputy ambassador about the atrocities being committed. and the blatant acts of terrorism and targeting civilians being carried out by ukrainian forces, he simply dismissed that with broad statements. then it's important to note that the united states refers to last the palestinian organization as terrorist and labels iran as it terrorist country. a state sponsor of terrorism that is responsible for terrorism throughout the middle east region. and it's in this context of the united states frames,
2:15 pm
everything related to events and gaza and in the middle east, east itself. this is the us representative of giving his interpretation of the issue of terrorism and the threats presented. speaking before the 15 member body that leads the united nations said, i need to respond to some remarks made earlier um by representative of the russian federation. once again, she tried to politicize the global effort to eradicate terrorism. the growing threat of terrorism, especially in the middle east, is something we can only tackle effectively as a united global community. so in that vein, i call on russia to use its real and growing influence with terrace groups such as a moss as buller and the fifty's. and with around the world leading state sponsored terrorism to en there, terraced attacks, which threatened to ignite a greater war in the region. so condemnation of terrorism
2:16 pm
as a concept was universal by the council. but the country speaking had very different interpretations of who is a terrorist and what activities constitute acts of terrorism. the fact that russia laid out about civilians being targeted and the her run this attacks that are being carried out by ukrainian forces were flat, out, dismissed, or ignored. certain countries were characterized as terrorists and the atrocities of other countries were ignored by western leaders. so it was an important meeting, whereas the important issue of terrorism was discussed very, very different understanding of who is responsible for terrorism in the world. and what this terrorist activity really is very different, different understandings presented before the council. right, are to correspond to kill them off. and caleb, thank you. the new wave of protest has gripped the
2:17 pm
canyon and then capital with people trying, talking people taking to the streets, demanding president william read to us resignation. the the gunshots could be heard earlier. the 1st riots broke out again in the capital nairobi despite earlier a nationwide demonstration, forcing president re towed to you turn on proposed tax sites. mr. retail withdrew the contested finance bill in june just in today after protestors briefly from the parliament instead of the blaze. with thousands of people dying in classes with police are to correspond to kenneth for monday has the latest from the hearts of nairobi to those that yeah, that's funny says that being looked at todd hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people have been a number of people out of feeling missing the for me, these i living in always not knowing where that kids are. the purpose that we have been witnessing in the country hands on

2:21 pm
what we blot it is on the end, it is those blood and the injuries that is in the more to put things us to push remove that he must the goals because we are only fighting for those why end up those what died because if windows push and the chief, the objective, then those old days will update the invading yes. as middle east tensions rise, the us national security spud's person isn't sure that the escalation in the region is actually possible. but as the risk of all out war becomes real, american political voices advocating for peace are being sidelined. it was there is a democrat congress on mandatory bush is one of those voices. and on tuesday she'd lost the primary race for her. st. louis district analyst have blamed her defeat on a powerful and mega funded pro israel lobbying group, which says it's targeted mrs bush because of her opposition to idea of actions in
2:22 pm
gaza. well, us congressional hope for jose vega is calling on voters to help him over throw. the powerful pro is rarely at lobby known as i pack, which is influencing the us to like total process over a 100. but that you guys, bob, a shelves and all the stores have allowed us to post the signs on the windows and doors. the bronx is ready to roll out of reach of taurus when not the establishment democrats. we are independent and we are here to stay, help us. oh, throw a pack. dolling reach you taurus. vega is taken on richie torres and incumbent us congressman for new york around uncontested in the july primaries. torres and the biggest funder is i pack which contributed almost $600000.00 over the past year. he has traveled the israel and received almost one and a half $1000000.00 from pro is really donors. all right, let's cost live now to jose vega, activist and independent us congressional candidate for new york has a good to have you on the program with us. a several candidates as we now have lost
2:23 pm
in their primaries and blamed. i packed because of that. so why do you think that you are capable of defeating such a powerful organization? i pack is one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the united states. well, i think it is. well, 1st of all, thank you for having me on. i think it depends. first of all, what you mean by the feet? i mean, yes. with beating richard torres, this november be a defeat? absolutely it. and here's why. i think i'm in a position to defeat a pack. you know, i have started the interventions back of been 2021. actually i confronted kamala harris. this is one of the 1st things i did in 2001 in october where i confronted her. and i said, you know, the people here in new york were dying because of the lack of infrastructure. and i even said, you know, the chinese have shown that poverty is a choice. where are we working with the chinese on the belt and wrote in and he did and i went viral for that. and now over the last 3 years i've been known for speaking the truth at events. i've been shocked. i've been dragged,
2:24 pm
i've been harassed. i've been called all kinds of things, but confronting the wise that these people like to say at these places, most famously when i confronted progressive alexandria caused the of cortez in october of 2022. and i called her a hypocrite and a coward for sending all this money to ukraine. and now i'm in a position here in the bronx where people recognize the truth. people recognize that we are tired of the 2 party system and they want to see an independent but more importantly they want to see somebody speaking out for peace. this is the pores, congressional district in the country. and i see a lot of people here are ready to stand up and declare peace for the entire world, not just for their own circumstances, but for the people and dogs, and for the people and ukraine and everywhere else where there is injustice. i also have benjamin netanyahu is really prime minister visited washington last month. it was around the time of these primaries were taking place and we saw the us congress, welcome him with a standing ovation. can you explain to our viewers why netanyahu was received with
2:25 pm
such a warm welcome given the war taking place in the atrocities that are happening? oh, well, you know, the fact is that they lauded him. i think give us something like 58 times the congress that up 58 times and applauded him the entire time. why is leaving the in yahoo loved so much because, you know, a lot of the fluids from the country of israel is here in our elections. you know, just in 2006 team, we were saying the united states was saying, oh, the russians are controlling our elections. you know, trump is trying to be the, the president, you know, for fulton, but we don't have a russian in how a russian a pac, right. we don't have a russian american political action committee. we have an american is really political action committee that has poured in millions of millions of dollars sheets. the problem with point boards losing her primary and jamal bowman, losing her primary is that this is only boasted and boosted anybody who it was speaking about,
2:26 pm
maybe speaking out against israel. now they feel compelled to support israel and they have to show it by lauding that in yahoo as he comes to the congress showing their undying unwilling support for the slaughter going on and gaza. but you know, the people here in the bronx definitely seek you right through a lot of people here thought it was a sham and it was disgusting. you know, people in here are in poverty. 35 percent of the people here in my district live underneath the poverty live, but we have all this money to send to israel and you can train, you know that the have a wide spread pro palestinian rallies in america get despite that the u. s. continues to provide military and financial support to israel is the pro israel lobby really that much more powerful than the voters themselves? well, the truth is no, but the problem is, is that people have been made impotent and have forgotten what it means to be an american. because an american in america is an international process. and that's
2:27 pm
what my campaign is about. you know, people like to say, well, the is rarely lobbies just to power when we can confront them. well, actually, if the voters decided to stand up and take back their government and declare their independence by supporting campaigns like mines in diane stairs or k, or even calling for peace. for example, i was briefing people here in the bronx about the fact that, you know, there are unconfirmed reports that is being playing the mediator role in the iran is really conflict. now, i don't know if that's confirmed or not. i hope it's true that you can play a significant role and making sure that i ran does not strike is real bad because that would be big. but the people here in the bronx are calling for that to be true . what kind of effect would that actually have? and i believe it would be a very optimistic effect. and that would compel the voters to be much more powerful than any lobby that can bring more expect them into supporting whatever candidate the millions of dollars it into. and just to watch what you told her as a thinking so much money from pro has rarely lobbies they see right through with my
2:28 pm
challenges, making sure that people know who i am and who diane sarah, is, you're running in new york state so that people feel compelled to take back to the government. all right, we're going to live with our jose vega active as to us independent congressional candidate for new york who is a thank you. thank you. well, it's no prospect of ending the conflict thing. does an insight indonesians are lending a hand to their palestinian friends with humanitarian aid and demands for justice for the enclave on presidential adviser has just paid a 3 day visit to the country to express their gratitude. are to correspond to rebecca not to not to put that to pool. who has the details? there is no peace in gaza without the end of the occupation. this is the message coming from the palestinian presidential adviser. must mod all how the sheet in a rear 3 day visit to indonesia. he has met with representatives of one of the country's largest as lumnick organization. now,
