3:04 am
in many ways, are coming directly from russia. which, ah, has been violating the very principles that lie at the heart of that system. india's chairmanship of the g 20 was supposed to be the blossoming of its ambitions to leave the global self promoting issues like death alleviation and climate change . but that seems to been put on hold by ongoing concerns over the war in ukraine. tony chang, l. desert, president vladimir putin says a ukrainian sabotage unit shot civilians on russian territory close to the border. the governor b. brianne ste region says a group cross from ukraine, an open fire on a car. one person was killed and a child wounded. putin has call the incident a terrorist attack. keep denies the allegations, calling it a classic deliberate provocation. was issue, shoot. the russian soldiers are protecting people from neo nazis and terrorists. thank you. from those who tortured and kill people in the dorm bath for 8 years,

3:06 am
forces in murray. will you probably as think about booming, of the theatre over the years, but the victims hit not been discovered. so all of these things we know, but also when we need to have a balance or we need that international community should be aware of what is happening in the bus. it's a crime, but nobody's speaking above it. so you're saying that all the evidence put forward regarding claims of atrocities carried out by russian forces in the likes of boucher and pin a fake in which it absolutely. it was fake. mary has nothing to do with these european i i'm not sure about that pin because i did not. i'm not very well about that. there's a possibility that crimes may have been committed in a pinch of this is mr. operation. this is a war. in fact, things are civilians, collateral, and that warning civilians collateral, in that war with no targets,
