1:02 am
not a word about the fact that the united states is once again attacking an independent state in the middle east, without un sanctions. the illegality of what is happening is traditionally disguised by the format of a certain coalition, where washington has convened the obedient and trusted, televised addresses are expected from biden to the last, but the american president, who over the last for 20 days i spent at most 1 hour in public, here i am limited to a written statement, with sick leave. the us, along with the uk, with support from australia, bahrain, canada and the netherlands, successfully struck a number of sites in yemen used by houthi rebels to threaten freedom of navigation on one of the world's most important waterways. if necessary, i will not hesitate to take further measures to protect our people and the free flow of water.
1:03 am
the houthis are being targeted to get into iran. it is important to remember that all roads are on the middle east leads to iran. we must make iran and all its proxies understand what is coming to them. pay a price for what they do. thus, we are on the way to initiate a policy of containment in this region. the american hawks , of course, liked everything that was happening. they are ready to take a fighting stance regarding iran at any time of the day or night. the us deep state has been dreaming of a big war with tehran for decades, but voices of defiance are becoming louder and louder. biden is criticized by himself party members, especially the left wing of the democrats. to the president. it was necessary
1:04 am
to come to congress before striking the houthis in yemen and drawing us into a new conflict in the middle east. surprisingly, the same criticism is coming towards biden from the right, from congresswoman marjarie taylor greene. the biden administration wants to finance the conflict in ukraine, control the war in israel, arm taiwan and prepare for war with china, and now it is going to fight in the middle east, all this on the border, millions people penetrate our...

about the strikes with impunity, they came out to protest in new york's times square near the white house. protesters are chanting hands off yemen. the posters are in the hands of those who have been on the streets of american cities for months demanding an immediate end to the bombing of the gas sector. the aggravation of the situation in yemen and the red sea, a direct consequence of the violence that accompanies the israeli military operation, settlement in the palestinian conflict zone, a guarantee of peace in the middle east, the opposite option is even greater globalization of this conflict. however , the united states and its allies do not want to see this causal relationship... about the situation in gas, despite the efforts of russia and a number of arab countries, nothing was mentioned in the latest security council resolution on yemen; today, on the initiative of our country, the un will again hold urgent meeting. valentin bogdanov, ivan utkin and maria egorova, news from new york.
1:06 am
the attacks of the american-british coalition did not come as a surprise to yemen. even the day before, the houthi rebels. transferred some of their weapons to reserve storage sites and declared a general mobilization in the provinces they controlled. yemen today, like a tender blanket, is divided between various groups, the main force of which can rightfully be considered the ansar allah movement, those same houthis. they control the western part of the country, where the majority of the population lives, including the capital sanaa. it was on this territory that the us and uk struck last night. this is what our fellow citizens say.
1:07 am
people shouted the death of america, there is anger, there is irritation and a readiness to mobilize against against the americans. the targets of the attack, according to the pentagon, were radars, air defense systems, warehouses, as well as launch sites for drones and missiles. and although, judging by the footage of the night bombings, damage was still done to the ansar allah group, its combat effectiveness as a whole was not significantly affected by the us and allied attacks, but they greatly angered the houthis, who now...
1:08 am
several types of anti-ship missiles, both our own and iranian production. given the military capabilities of the houthis, according to the yemeni rebels, the top military the us command should listen, because the targets of retaliatory strikes by the ansar allah movement could be not only coalition ships in the red sea, but also american military bases located in countries neighboring yemen. the entire arabian peninsula and the persian gulf countries are within the radius of destruction of the ballistic missiles that the uhuthis are armed with. including the largest american base in the middle east, aludeit, located in qatar. and in this conflict, the countries of the region, if not on the side of the houthis, then certainly not against them. thus, among the regional players, only bahrain supported the us operation. key countries in the region, such as
1:09 am
saudi arabia or the united arab emirates, remained on the sidelines. the americans already tried to put an end to the houthis in mid -2010 with the help of the same saudi arabia, which they had been testing for several years. imagine the response of the yemeni rebels that they attacked oil fields and refineries on the territory of the kingdom with drones, while the americans simply moved away from the yemeni shores. today trade ships also bypass them in the country, because the babel-mandeb strait is the most important transport corridor connecting east to west, through which 12% of world trade passes. the us operation, seemingly aimed at protecting commercial shipping, clearly had the opposite effect. world markets would react.
1:10 am
iranian allies in the middle east, and therefore we can say with confidence that strikes against the houthis are nothing more than an operation against iranian forces in the region, aimed at the military infrastructure of tehran and its kind of check. reaction to what is happening from the same islamic revolutionary guard corps, if it follows, it will most likely happen in syria or iraq, where the forces of shiite groups will come under attack from the american contingents in these countries, as for a direct clash between washington and tehran , such a scenario is unlikely to be needed by any of the parties now. alexander bilibov, dmitry shcherbakov and denis sokolov, lead the middle east. more than 3 billion dollars the largest. military aid package to ukraine announced london. british prime minister rishi sunak not only made this decision, but
1:11 am
also announced it during his visit to kiev. he arrived against the backdrop of the united states’ temporary refusal to help zelensky, the escalation of the conflict in yemen, and the dissatisfaction of american taxpayers with the exorbitant costs of supporting the armed forces of ukraine. and that is not all. sunok and zelensky signed a ten-year agreement on security guarantees. what does he mean and why is all this happening now? boris ivanin figured it out.
1:12 am
such voluminous luggage, however, is only for now on paper, sunok brought to kiev by train a new aid package worth £2.5 billion, which is more than london spent on supporting kiev during the entire conflict. now britain has bound ukraine with an agreement on security guarantees. i am proud that president zelensky and i have signed a new security agreement. this will become the basis of a partnership between our two countries that will last. hundreds of years old, this is the first bilateral agreement on security guarantees in a series of agreements
1:13 am
that were promised to kiev by thirty countries at last year's summit in vilnius. the agreement, however, is not for 100 years, but only for 10, and nowhere in the document does it say about britain’s direct participation in the conflict with russia or about the deployment of royal troops on ukrainian territory. however, in gratitude, zelensky awarded reshisunok the order of freedom, the same received by his predecessor, boris johnson. they hastened to swear allegiance to london in the verkhovna rada of ukraine, unfurling the union jack right above the podium, although everyone understands sunak’s sudden visit, a frantic attempt to come to the rescue zelensky at the very time when arms supplies from the united states had completely dried up. we passed the last relief package for which we had funding, so it is critical that congress approves the supplemental national security spending request so that we receive more funding for the assistance we are providing. stopped, but russian attacks have only intensified, so there is an urgent need for support, especially in the winter
1:14 am
months. this news, sad for kiev , coincided with the beginning of the military operation in yemen, which is being carried out against the houthis by the united states and great britain. memes have already appeared on social networks with a depressed zelensky being driven around in latvia in a dirty mercedes. as a consolation, riga promised support to kiev, even at the expense of its own economy. our assistance to ukraine has already amounted to 1% of gdp. this is 600 million euros. i also informed the president of ukraine that a new aid package is on the way, which includes howitzers and 155mm artillery ammunition. there are also anti-tank defense systems, missile launchers, all-terrain vehicles, helicopters, and drones. but that's it baltic parcels run the same risk of being lost in ukraine as american ones. the us cannot find about 60% of the aid sent. weapons and equipment are not identified by serial numbers in databases, the inspector general found.
1:15 am
39,139 pieces of high-risk equipment. the report does not specify exactly how many of which were transferred to ukraine were considered overdue, but potential losses are estimated at approximately $1 billion. of the total cost of weapons sent to ukraine, which amounts to 1.69 billion dollars, where the billion dollars went, the london insider tried to find out. journalistic investigation led to the czech republic and slovakia. according to reporters, it is there that immigrants from ukraine are engaged in smuggling weapons and cutting western trenches. with a high degree of probability , the united states and the european union themselves are involved in this. for example, 100,000 shells were intended for the ukrainian armed forces, but they never arrived there. this is just one contract worth $35 million. it is not surprising that in the west there is growing
