a special council to investigate the discovery of classified documents and president biden's home and former office. ah. clubs, the ho robin. they're watching all civilized my headquarters here in doha, also coming up, standing up against. i'll show bob somalis on so we're a government called to demonstrate against the armed group. i am not backing down supporters of peruse, ousted president bedroom castillo, a back home, the streets demanding new elections. and ukraine says its troops a holding off against a face russian offensive in the town of solid, all but wounds. the situation is difficult. ah! welcome to the prego. my special council has been appointed to investigate you as president joe by his handling of sensitive government documents. a 2nd set of

papers has been found and this time at his private home in delaware, the 1st batch of files is uncovered. one biden's former offices 2 months ago, but was only made public on monday. a white house correspondent kimberly hallett has more the discovery of a 2nd batch of classified documents. this time inside the garage of president jo biden's private residence has made it difficult for binding to quell this latest political controversy. people know, i take classified documents, classified material seriously. white house lawyers revealed the documents for found recently and relate to biden's time as vice president under president barack obama . the white house lawyers insist they immediately turned the documents over to the national archives. still, the department of justice is appointing us attorney robert her, a special counsel to investigate whether biden broke the law. i will ensure that

mister her receives all the resources he needs the conductor's work. the white house insist it's cooperating and is denying any impropriety. it's in the statement of her from his lawyer, richard, somber, and at the end, he said, we are confident that they are a thorough review will show that these documents were inadvertently misplaced. still, it's in administration under increased scrutiny earlier this week, while biting was at a summit in mexico. the white house admitted lawyers found similar secret papers and a washington d. c. think tank called the pen biden's center. the president says he doesn't know what's in those documents, but the discovery has prompted charges of hypocrisy. in january 2022 classified documents were found at the florida residents of former president donald trump. a justice department special council is also looking into that case.

biden has called trump totally irresponsible from his handling the classified materials, another foe, paul, by the, by an administration, but treating lot differently based upon your political beliefs. it's one president trump one way, but treats president buying a whole different way. president biden's republican critics are also questioning why it took so long for the biden administration to reveal the existence of the document. the 1st batch was discovered on november 2nd just days before the congressional mid term election. the only became known to the public this week. kimberly, how can al jazeera the white house, the con greenberg is the director of the center or national security of fordham university school of law. she says the investigations likely being launched to stop accusations at biden is getting treated differently to donald trump. i actually think these 2 cases are very much apples and oranges. you have

a case of somebody who willingly for a long time and defiantly refuse to turn over documents. we're talking about hundreds of documents. in the case of trump, we're talking about less than a dozen. in the case of bible, we know for a fact that some of the trump documents were highly secretive, highly classified documents. we don't know anything of the sort about by them. and i think in a way this is just a misuse of our, of our attention and where our attention needs to be over so many important issues . but i think that's why garland did if he wants to be seen as a attorney general, who goes by the book and probably thought in this way, he could camp down some of the political occupations going that way. of course the, i'm not sure to work that way. i think the sooner that they get to make some confusion with the special master about the bio document and let us know what they

are and whether or not that with any intent or whether it was just sort of negligence and, and whether or not it was binding or whether or not it was somebody else. we have fewer questions about that when it comes to trump. and the issue of intent is important in both cases and fundamentally seems to separate those cases. somali as president has called on his fellow citizens to come together to fight al jabard hassan shake. mama described the armed group as bed bugs who must be eradicated that he address crowns in mogadishu. during rally, organized by the government, he declared war on the group. when he came to power last year, after bob has been fighting the government since 2007, one and you're not good. if you see someone you don't know in your neighbourhood, please ask him. who are you? if you can't ask him, please call us and tell us that there is an unknown person in your neighbourhood. then we will ask him, what are you doing? where did you come from? nothing wrong with that. it's not as of your bothering your neighbors. oh donnelly,

separatists. the group has also operated in places like syria, central african republic, libya and malley, among others. initially about 300 wagner contractors took part in the invasion of ukraine in february 2022. their mission, according to ukraine and western officials, capture and killed president vladimir zelinski by march. their presence had triple to 1000. and the pentagon currently estimates at least $50000.00 fighters operating an eastern ukraine of which only $10000.00 r contractors. the remaining 40000 r convicts. russia initially called the invasion as special military operation that would quickly achieve the kremlin schools. but it stalled and russia had to rethink its military strategy. that's when the role of this private army became more prominent in easton ukraine with the support of the regular army howitzers. it

could be right as a usually i say, of some kind or, or division over i responsibility. ah, russian regular army usually control after aerotech marseilles, us an addition and are, are this lucky group? our eyes use a special ah, units or soldiers or not possess falls, a stormy, or some of her. ah, defense, orange will fall. now ukrainian the group also enjoys a legal loophole which allows its mercenaries to operate more freely. they are glorified in a recently released movie, funded by the group called the best in hell. even though the wagner group has been accused of human rights abuses in several countries, it operates in them. if solid our fault, it will paved away for the russian army to head south towards battles and west doors. commodore ask. it will also likely increase the popularity of the wagner
