its support network across multiple continents. these actions recognize the trans continental threat that wagner poses including through it's ongoing pattern of series, criminal activity. at the same time though, the u. s. maintains that a mounting rivalry between the body and group and the formal russian military could impact on russian performance and the ongoing war. we are seeing indications, including intelligence, the tensions between wagner and the russian ministry of defense are increasing. wagner is becoming a rival power centered to the russian military and other russian ministries, the russian army has a very little more out. so the only way to spike morale and to bring victory is to bring this people who get a lot of money. well, basically professional mercenaries, and also professional criminals released from jail. that's what styling actually did as well. the us has also accused north korea of arming the wagner group,

displaying images of what it says are russian rail cars being loaded with north korean weapons systems. potentially putting the group in a position where it could change battlefield dynamics and ukraine. something the u . s. clearly hopes it sanctions will help prevent. mckenna, arduous era, washington, germany has not yet decided whether to send leopard tangs to ukraine to spine pressure to acts from its nato partners. defense ministers for more than 50 countries have been meeting to coordinate ministry aid to fasten reports from ramstein and bass. us defense secretary lloyd austin was hoping to deliver pattern used to his ukrainian counterpart at the ramstein air base. but it was to be no commitment from germany that it would send its lap tanks to ukraine. we don't feel anything. we are just do a responsibility for our population in germany and in europe. and we have to

balance all the pros and cons of p. 40 resist, decide. things like that, just like that. this is nothing else. and i'm very sure that there will be a decision in the short term, but i don't know why, and i don't know. wow, how the decision will look. this lack of a concrete timeline is this by germany's nato allies and ukraine itself, pressuring heart for the thanks to be sent. i encourage you to make such decisions that can deprive rational evil of, of any power. you can start this policy today. it is in your power to mega ramstein of tags not to bargain about different numbers of tense, but to open at principal supply that will stop russian evil. some fear attending napa tank could mean an escalation of the war and rec nato, into a direct confrontation with russia. the tanks have been sold to dozens of countries

around the world. those who want to export him to ukraine need permission from germany 1st, after weeks of international pressure, germany has made it clear that it will take a decision on whether or not to send leper thanks to you. crane. in its own time, president landscape plea that time is not a luxury his country has had little effect. because germany says it's a decision that needs to be carefully wait. despite the saturday, happy promises of new military hardware for ukraine. u. s. d flange secretary austin urgent countries not to waste too much time. this is a decisive decade for the world. and this is a decisive moment for ukraine struggle to defend itself. so that contact group will not slow down. we're going to continue to dig deep and based upon the progress that we've made today, i'm confident that ukraine's partners from around the globe are determined to meet

this moment in berlin global foot fast. us also tried to put pressure on the government to take a decision on sending lap of tank sooner rather than later. step, fasten al jazeera at ramstein, ebay, and a half m. as in moscow, what the reaction from that it's a matter of concern for moscow, and we can see that in the lines coming from the russian foreign ministry that sees supplying a cave with more weapons, will escalate the situation as for the, for the ministry and will cause more casualties for missed you also accuse the west of hypocrisy for ignoring the casualties on the other side of the borders as for the russians. now, also the, the criminal and warned that this the supply of weapons will take the

conflict into another level and will put the nature of face to face with the russian that urged the coming in the west and lions to take into consideration the concerns of mosca. because this could help de escalate . however, the score of demetri prescott, this book starts and for, for kremlin, said that nothing is going to change in the field. and this is, this is just creating more targets for the, for the russians. and, you know, this is kind of escalating the they taught here in more school, more school with the more with more consent now is also taking into consideration the situation with respect to its public opinion. it's reaching to the foreign foreign countries trying to give a position a stance, but also trying to soothe the concerns inside the country and try to convey a message that there are still options trying to raise the stake and say everything

is going to according to the plan, mark malik brown is the president of the open society foundations on a former un deputy 60 general. he says it's become clear that the only way to get permission to the negotiating table is if he sees losses in the battlefield. well, i think for a long time, there was a very good reason why not to provide offensive weapons in building tanks. so that was the design not to escalate the conflict to contain it within ukraine's territory. and to give you credit actually means it needed to defend itself, but not to do anything which encouraged or incentivized an expansion of the conflict either into crime me or let learned rush for it. so what is this thing is war? no, it's clear and clear that there are some sort of built in advantages to russia and letting this go on as in depth is possible. russia does long was, it was,

was exhausted, germany in the 2nd world war, as it march into russia, like russia. so union to a 9 year engagement in afghanistan, lacking democratic accountability, it does long, well when it comes to conflict, it's also got a much more reckless approach to life than democracies and so seems up to mobilizing hundreds of thousands, if not millions of conscript see that cannon fodder to try and overwhelm ukrainian, defensive. and so in that context, it's become clear that the only way, despite grains relative success on the battlefield, to get russia and do tend to the negotiating table, is to really deliver him something much closer to not power. which makes him realize he's lost. now, sante government purchase have taken place and parade for

through some economic turbulence and we're gonna have to navigate our way through that i believe passionately that we can come out the other side of that and be to shape than we went into it. i'm really optimistic about our future. i'm really committed to leading newsheel and through days in a way that is strong, stable, and unifying line. flat on out is there esla, tweet, feel on must down play the pallet, his social media presence during his full trial. our growing number of cranes being encouraged to spend the winter in south korea. ah ah, there is a fairly rare sight this winter looking down from space very little cloud that you see there was actually the cold mornings of the mountains of iran. and in fact,

migrants and refugees from countries like iraq, syria, and f canister, who risked their lives stowed away in hidden compartments on trucks. the crossing between different greek and italian ports can take between 9 and 30 hours. some di trying others are discovered on board and handed to the italian police liber sana, john. laura, come down to leave your land. people have told us about violence and acts of force about being locked up about being dragged from the ferry. one person had an epileptic attack and was, let's say, dragged and kicked by the crew. one woman told us of invasive searches over intimate pass. it's alleged there are for not provided with translators as required by law, and that some prevented from claiming asylum before being returned to greece locked in the vessel. they arrived in occasionally leaving, assigning, they were there,

edged on the wall. this man pictured himself in may last year, handcuff to the railings on a fairy bound for greece, using his description of the vessel and its route. this storage space was located in the vehicle bay below deck and in the greek port of pat trust, we meet pollution from us gun a, stamp. his story is all the more significant because his documents show that he's a minor aged 17 the home on monday to give and i'm, i've been here for 6 months and it said many games. once i have under a refrigerated truck and it went inside the big ship, and when it arrived on the truck left the ship, i was found and arrested. they did not question me about a seeking asylum. they did not take my fingerprints because they just put me inside a small room and sent me back to greece. it's not unusual for commercial fairies to have a small lock up room on board, sometimes used to secure unruly passengers. for instance, on this one, we found

a holding cell, that crew were heard to refer to as the prison on approaching the upper via the deck, the bis. very but shoppers between me and tell me both of barry and the bree quotes puts us and he will insert and yet, and the bow of the vessel is a metal box. and guna unprepossessing, a tool that is inside. there's nothing more than a sheet and cardboard on the floor. words identified as kurdish scrolled on the wall, but there illegible. responding to our investigation, the fairy company concerns said it fully complies with national and international law. actions behaviors and practices such as these it wrote have never taken place on any of its vessels. and confronted with the evidence, the barry police commissioner denied italian complicity as well. you go on all

the libraries from sean at the d to get char. i wouldn't dare to say that doesn't happen. i've seen the pictures of that person handcuffed, but i don't know the context or where it took place e contest, the longer the rituals you will learn how they've been out there. and now my colleagues telling me that the police don't even get on the ship. this is an important point. we hand the migrant to the ferry crew and he's then handed over to the ferry captain. a tacit admission that forced returns do take place. but a defense that activists find unconvincing full of char stuck to doris. i am certain that the italian police are aware the border police. a lot of this is done by or in front of the italian police. we denounce, not only that these forced returns are illegitimate, but also that they take place without formal procedures with no record of what actually happened. in fact,

the numbers are impossible to find out. in 2014, the european court of human rights found that italy had illegally detained and returned 35 asylum seekers by ferry to greece. the italian government has since insisted the practice no longer occurs. yet our investigation has her testimony from 8 people who've been forcibly return from italy to greece in just the past 12 months. jonah whole al jazeera in bowery, italy growing number of headed cranes of spending winter in a unesco natural heritage site and south korea before they migrate to remote parts, siberia and china, the community. and soon sean have been taking measures to try to protect the cranes from bud flew. eunice kim, reports done in this nature reserve. oh, wakened by a collective cry. the hooded crane sleep in these coastal mudflats rich

a healthy stay. rice grains is distributed and there is no ground water illuminating a key factor in the spread of the avian influenza virus. in what has been a fierce season, the bird flew in japan, a record caseload. some and pools of water has led to a calling of more than 10000000 birds at poultry farms. in is you me a top wintering site? more than $1200.00 hood cranes were found dead clearing out obstructions, community leaders say artificial habitats such as these while not ideal must be replicated as habitat. los threatens, hard fight progress, the mayor of soon shun a town that removed hundreds of electric pulls and wires. when the flying birds got caught in them, says prosperity and ecology most work together with y'all central motor poormen's all. when you observe soon from base preservation story, you realize how useful it was for the cities development. it.
