for the also budget difficulties because we are foreigners, we are not phones, we all vote. and if you took out, is there a world for us then the inspirational coast as a font, the more just to compete, smoke out there at all to deny these young boys to ride sometimes basketball on al jazeera, the a mutiny investigation is underway in russia, as bob mussman richie, if you have gainey printers in file is revenge on west coast ministry leadership, the adrian said again, this is 0 life though. also coming out the sweet spot on see me on the pipe. westbank risk spiraling out of control. a warning from the you and the zip condemns

is really forces escalating violence in the occupied westberg. molly votes for changes to the constitution that the ministry jumped to assess for phase the way to elections. the u. s. charges for chinese companies with illegally trafficking chemicals used to make the drug sensitive the brushes f as b security. so this is what the comments made by the vault the most enrich if you have gaining triggers in amount to a coal, to start on civil conflict in russia. and they've opened an investigation priggish and made the comments on telegrams, buying revenge against the russian ministry. so he accuses of carrying out strikes on his finances, rushing media, say that he's accused of cooling for an armed abuse in a 0 god. then you will, that the military leadership of the country bears must be stopped. they neglect

deluxe of soldiers. they forgot to work justice and will return, and therefore those who destroyed our guys today, those who destroy the 10s, many tens of thousands of lives. refreshing soldiers, so the punish bottom ye speak to you, the shop of oliver, who is just outside of moscow. what's the latest we're hearing from moscow in response to this? and so there are some new developments in jeez, the russian ministry of defense just released a statesman which says the cambridge stream has taken advantage of regardless of provocation to disorganized the situation. ukraine has launched it's offensive operations in the by 100 taxi, co direction. while the southern group of the russian forces are responding with a and a silver strikes defeating the enemy that it was according to the ministry of defense . so the finds the on the bottom of the field has intensified to also at the moment . um, at ministry personnel,

vehicles that can be seen in the streets of moscow. a jerry, people were pulled, that's the caps and looks pretty calm right now. that's probably because a security measures had been stepped up in most the end or the most important facilities stage of flores. he's on transport facilities. i've been taken under protection, they're all sort of pulls that russian internet providers have begun blue access to google, but icons confirm that as my google works. while at the moment, several high ranking generals, including genuine to ravine, can come on during chico, be aerospace forces of russia and former come out and they'll be joined the group of russian forces in ukraine. really federal visual messages addressing progression . and they will say, it's a very hard time for the country right now. it's time for the unit. so you know, the units and the russians enemies in ukraine and in the west are rejoicing right now. so what progression dog not doing now is a stop in the back of the country. i'm the president that it was according to those

generals. so it'd be investigated committees. it has launched a criminal case against progression, the f as these public relations center, appeals to the functions of the government group and asked them to dictate progression. so what's going on can be considered progressions must of offense of the game, the russian ministry of defense. uh they had a vote and a code, or he supposes to join the ranks of his vomiting group. and so toms the tales in the country saying that it was not a military crew that was march of justice. so according to precaution, administer showing who had arrived in the russians and the rest of them don't possibly carry out the operation to destroy the ball. the group, the armed forces use the gun, is an helicopter pilot to destroy the bargaining group. so right now, progression is ready to find xbox. well, those are some war and details for you from, from most of the solid. quite your new manufacturing. the julia shop of, of, of, of the, just outside of moscow. let's take you and have a washing control on the ask out 0 is already hash them is the so you near the

front line in don't ask the ali. uh, what's the latest on the slides? you can what role is valid to playing in the war in ukraine, particularly where you or whatever. and let me start from the front line, the minister of defense and russia is saying that ukraine is wanting dr. phrase for studying for the account to the offensive and box mode and that they are building on the latest developments in russia. so this is one of the 1st of the things that's happening after the pre goshen. the saga. now with respect to walk, pre goshen was doing go with the past few months precautions, royalty guardians, wagner group roles in this area and the front on the front lines was vital, especially in the taking off. uh it washer. uh, russian armies taking golf slowly got in december 2022 and also the taking of

basketball, which is right now, once again on the forecast. now, given what's happening today, what's being happening today now we have that all roads from an into a stove has been closed. and this is also due to the security measures that's being taken by russian security forces, ministry. i just think in case that is anything that's going to happen on the ground. how is this going to impact the frontline? well, this is a very big question. how about some people are lies in god is suggesting that there is or already something happening there with the church and 5 to the replacing the wagner group over the past few weeks a months. and this could be one of the reasons why wagner groups chief precautions came out on a challenge. the ministry of defense, the challenge that has been going on for really a few months now since the uh,

taking off for the daughter since back booth. it's uh the conference has been going on and it's just the top of the aspect that we are seeing right now. all right, i mean many things the value. how should that reporting live from? don't you ask? let's take a closer look at the voc, the group itself, the private ministry, power ministry force was established in 2014 by of gaining triggers. and when they participated in russia's annexation of crimea, fiction is a businessman with close ties to president vladimir putin. he became known as pretends chef phase catering and restaurant businesses. it's believe they have as many as 50000 sizes in ukraine. many of them criminals released from russian jails and promised freedom if they survived the fighting block. the group members have been accused of war crimes. the groups been at the forefront of fighting and bar quotes. russia finally captured the city last month up to suffering haitian heavy

casualties. joining us now live from washington, this to be dropped the she was special assistant, the president bill clinton on russia, for my senior director for russia at the us national security council. good to have you with this, toby. what do you make of physicians latest remarks? and indeed the space responds to the but well, i think is definitely an escalation. um, uh, pretty version has failed under attack and he's also so very brave because he's been on the attack. his attacks have gotten increasingly personal again. sure. i go and against the, the general in charge of the army and he's called them, he will and not protecting his troops and not giving the man munition. and i think um, he's, his language is really quite inflammatory. and now there's been a response and the responses to basically say that they, i'm and that he is trying to from, into a region at fighting against the regime. and this is very serious

because we're putting on his tried to do all during this war is convinced russians that they have nothing to worry about. that it's a war against nazis and ukraine. that is a war that won't affect them so that the russian army is a good for us or force for peace and that it's doing very well. and what this does is it undermines every one of those points. i mean, if you are living in russia now on the border with ukraine, or if you're in moscow, which is just bon bonded to some of the apartment buildings are you are afraid of ukrainian nazis, or are you afraid of your own army? or are you afraid of the ukrainians ability to attack mom's gas? so what's missing and all this, you know, is weird to me. this is not a bit of free time. this is a much of justice. he said, what do you think of triggers ins, objectives,

all his threats directed at the criminal? what does this mean for the president puts in, how will he be viewing the previous war on his defense minister? well, that's a very good question, but you know, progressing would not exist without putting them. so just think of them as an independent actor. maybe even scarier, tend to think of them as an agent to put on because it is an independent actor. then he's really going for the juggler against the defense minister and against the army. and frankly, what he's doing is the one thing that you can never do in russia and 3, very careful. it's like playing with matches. and that's to inside the population that the elite isn't doing its job, that the children are buried on fighting, that the army is not giving the troops what they need. and the feeling of anger is always below the surface and in the russian population. and the person who can grab

that feeling often is the one who can get people out on the street. and it's interesting that in moscow they basically close the center of moscow down. and um, even though moscow now, for example, doesn't have a free internet, it does have towel, graham, and it does have other ways of getting information out. and there are people now are kind of wondering what's going on. i thought this was a special military operation, and it turns out that rushes at war with itself. certainly the 1st, the many will have heard of wagner was due to its most reparations and parts of africa. how does, what are you doing in ukraine? differ from the results. seizing that, it's been accused of in places like libya and west africa as well. what it's been doing in africa is basically um, propping up the leaders of countries who are quite willing to let the wagner bring brigades come in and develop the resources and destroy the land,

and just take out the minerals and make money. so it's done, what every oligarch in russia has done, which is try to make money at the expense of whoever they, they can. and so they've gotten a lot of a place there, and they're actually in a lot of countries in africa, and some rulers in africa rely on them. but in russia, it's quite different. and i, you are never going to let go, isn't plunder russia. there are other people who are going to do that and they're much closer to put. and then they're all over the country where they're gonna let progression do is do the dirty work that they didn't want to do. and what i think is most interesting now is you know, this um, idea of letting people out of jail, which, you know, a many people are just astounded that you would do it. well, they didn't really care because of those people died. um, you know, it's, it's one last person to feed in a penal colony. but now the russian government is offering people in

jail, the opportunity to fight for their country, and so on. imitation is the best one. you know, uh, flattery. and here it is. the 1st in government is doing the same thing, so there's a lot of maneuvering here and what we don't hear clearly is what put them is trying to accomplish. and there seem to be a lot of balls in the air, and there is always the danger of people going out on the street and they're being shooting or of the ukrainians being emboldened frankly. or even the chinese being in bold. and then saying to the russians, now you really owe us if you want us to come to your defense and do whatever we can . um, so it's a very, it's a kind of a very dangerous situation. and i think now that i'm president in russian history, there been people on the streets all the time and before every re revolution. but we are not expecting pollution in russia. good to talk to toby, manufacture, date,

type of get to that in washington. thank you. then i have nations this morning the, the filing in the occupied westbank is at risk of spot running out of control. the message comes up to several kind of sit in the villages were rated and destroyed by his really forces and centralist. hurry, forces reports from ramallah in the occupied west park. the smoke is cleared, but the damage done into messiah isn't dental and attacked by his ready settlers on wednesday, left, causing the houses, burned 12 promised indians injured and one dead. they would just say, omar cotton was shot by his really forces who arrived after the settlers had retreated. he walked into the fire to rescue others. he didn't care about himself. he cared about the safety of others. i'm so proud of him. i'm so proud of him. we're also proud of you. officials and other diplomats arrived on friday to evaluate and to condemn. according to the accounts we have received from number of

sources, indeed, a group of federalists. many, many settlers came here. i would call them tell receptors because they spread the terra in the vicinity and in the neighborhood to you. the vice. sure thing was life problems with the fire at penis thing in the tactless part of the wave of such a violence that came off the floor is ready such as was shot dead by thomas didn't even attack. is that a petrol station on tuesday that followed a large scale is ready rate on jeanine. on monday, the left 7 palestinians including 2 children dead and school was wounded. the un on friday demanded as well reset its actions to minimize the use of lease will force and protect people's right to life. the sweeps violence in the occupied westbank risks spiraling out of control. healed by strident political rhetoric and an escalation in the use of advanced military weapon right?

by it is right. that was most striking graduate vote from his real security minister. visiting a settlement outpost dean, the legal under is ready law. when the government times to endorse retrospectively, we must settle the entire land of israel and in parallel to settled the land, we must carry out a military operation to topple buildings to killed terrace. not one or 2, but dozens and hundreds and if needed, thousands that has been pressure on these ready government from other causes as well. and the roku has delayed again, hosting an arab is really us summit, the us ambassador. the said washington was stand by and allow set of items to continue. these really military has condemned it as well with this pressure in the other direction, from within the government. from the far right set leaders who now hold positions of unprecedented power power. suppose it out to 0, ramallah in the occupied westbank. still to come here on out. i'm rob reynolds in utah with

a report over the controversy on banning books from school libraries in the united states. including an attempt to band the 5 the or the route to you by visit capital had that was not in north america. and it's been a very wet stops to the summer, particularly for north eastern areas of the us. and the rain is going to continue to fall, stretching all the way from new england down to the carolinas with a wash out of a weekends when new york city and some rain coming in for washington, dc on saturday. now we're expecting more in the way of weather as we go into the new week, thanks to a rush of storms and moving across the great lakes. they will carry that with the weather for the east as we go into monday. but we've got some storms from this system, bringing the potential for hail as well as a tornado or too much t,

y a to the south. there's lots of sheets continuing, dallas touching 40 degrees celsius there on sunday, and lots cooler field. however, for the west coast temper, just below average, share with me whether it's come west and pots of canada that have already seen flooding in places that were devastated by those wild fires. that was, you may have to central america. the heat continues from much of mexico just down in the south, but we all going to have some relief from the weather but very heavy rain to come here saturday into sunday. and as a tropical storm, brett, after it worked its way over the eastern islands, is going to dissipate in the caribbean sea. instead. we'll see, cindy, what because we're north of hispanic chola. the weather brought to you by visit castle to the general most 10 years in which the shakonda ward for translation and international understanding has become the most important translation award from am to the arabic language in the world. the award announces

as war and the violence of the occupied westbank risk spiraling out of control is really forces weighted several kinda city and villages. so stay focused in malia have overall when we back changes to the constitution proposed by the governing ministry, john to which it says paved the way disability and rule 97 percent voted yes to the changes and sundays referendum, but the turn out was less than 40 percent opponent. so the changes give too much power to the president. obama has been on the ministry rule since august 2020. i'll just hear as nicholas hawk reports from back. com. this is a significant moment for molly and molly, and because a change in the constitution has been debated for the last 30 years. it seems that the multi ability june has succeeded where previously elected presidents have failed it, organizing this referendum. but the level of participation,

the voter turnout is pretty low. around 39 percent of orders came out to vote. that's in effect, similar to the last election or vote that took place in 2018. a large part of the population were fearful to go out to pulling stations because there were threats from arm grooms linked to al qaeda and i so, but this is a significant moment for not just body ins, but for the region as a hole in a region where there's been a series of cruising burkina, faso and guinea. molly is the only country that is taking the steps towards constitutional order and paving the way for return to democracy with election scheduled for february 2024. but with this new constitution, the multi 1000000 military gentle will be able to run in the upcoming presidential elections. and if he wins, then he will have greater power than any previous president. in multi, the regions will have more ptolemy,

but there will be greater oversight on the president himself, he'll be a senate, a constitutional court, and the president will be limited to, to mandate. so this is great steps for a new constitution and with elections planned for february 2024. nicholas hawk alger 0. the car, the u. s. has filed criminal charges against for chinese companies. and 8 individuals of obligations would be in equally traffic. the chemicals used to make the drug fentanyl. the highly addictive painkiller has fueled america's opioid crisis, or the companies are accused of selling a manufacturing chemicals to con towels in mexico, which in turn traffic the truck to the us. the chinese embassy is condemned to move cooling at a well planned entrapment operation. i'll just give us what's on jordan report. tells us something pulling out from washington dc was what do we know about these allegations then?

one of the chinese saying about it as well. what we know about this is that there are 3 federal cases that have been unveiled in new york city alongside the attorney general merritt, garland, and one of the cases, one company and 3 people are being charged with basically selling the precursors. part of the ingredients to make fentanyl, to what turns out to be undercover us investigative agents and selling a number of these precursors. or trying to any way that could kill pretty much every single person living in the united states. that's about $330000000.00 people, plus another 50 or $60000000.00 more people. that's the allegation from the federal government. now, 2 of the suspects in this one case have already been rusted. 210 kilograms of

what's known as a precursor was covered in a warehouse in los angeles. back in may, these 2 men are going to be brought before a federal judge in new york city at some point in the coming days. the 3rd person in this one case is on the run and they're trying to find that person. in the 2 other cases. there's several other people who have been charged with basically doing the same thing as well as several chinese companies that manufacture these ingredients and making it so that it can harm people in the united states. now whether or not they are going to go to a speedy trial really depends, of course, on the lawyers that tried these of defendants get. and it is worth pointing out that as you suggested, the chinese government on friday evening here in the united states is calling this a classic case of entrapment. that's a typical description from anyone who is on the side of the defendants. and they're

saying that basically the problem with o, p would use is a problem within the united states, which the us needs to solve itself and not try to shift the blame to other parties or to other countries. one more point it is, was noting that the secretary of state antony blinking was in beijing earlier this week. he did say that the matter of fentanyl trafficking did come up during his meetings with chinese officials. and he's going to be convening a meeting of what is being called a new global coalition against synthetic drug abuse and synthetic drug threats to try to put a stop to this global trafficking problem. but it's not clear yet whether the chinese are going to be taking part in that coalition. how does the restaurants on june reporting lifetime from washington, rus manufacturing data? a large number of us states of targeting what some see as controversial books trying to get them removed from libraries. the state of utah has recently passed

a law allowing parents to challenge books that they want out of school libraries, rental support staff from salt lake city in utah. the libraries across the us are being forced to pull thousands of books off the shelves after many states and school districts pass laws to restrict children's access to books deemed to sexual too violent or otherwise inappropriate. some of the books often removed include gender, queer by my uncle, bobby. the bluest are by toni morrison and the hand bates. tale by margaret atwood, who made a video with an and burnable metal alloy a copy of her book. when we have an effort to pick and choose what can be taught in schools, what can be accessed by students? what kinds of identities we're trying to learn about that is in our front too democracy. utah recently passed a bill allowing parents to challenge books. they weren't kept out of school

libraries, it's basically a roddic, a sexual context. so it's, it's pictures of people having sex. it's the graphic description or written words of people having sex. you would not be able to distribute pornographic material on the streets to a minor. you would be arrested, but right now some of that content is in school libraries, davis, cody, utah, is school system, remove more than 30 volumes of their parent challenges. but then things got complicated, and anonymous parent filed a formal complaint against a certain book. they said with a truck full of sex and violence, and that book was the bible. the school district removed age bibles from elementary and junior high school libraries. the move created an uproar with christian parents demonstrating and protest. the book bills author says the challenge should have been dismissed outright. somebody was trying to, to,

to hope the legislature in the i political, you would be my guess. it was a, i hate feel ridiculous. the challenge on its face. the challenges keep coming, the latest sites, the book of mormon secret to members of the latter day. saints church who make up 60 percent of utah is population. this week the county school board reversed the bible restriction. c, i a local book, controversy results, but a nationwide debate that continues rob reynolds, l. g 0, salt lake city, utah of russia, is taking legal action against this training and government for staffing its plans to build a new embassy most coast says that it's spent $8000000.00 on the project to the capital camera. and one of its diplomats is now squatting on the land. like sped reports. russian diplomats turned squab. so these alexis

challenged frustrating and officials trying to block russia from building. and you've been busy in kendra about prime minister and to be opened, easy sees the russian man isn't a threat to national security. the national security threat that was represented by a russian embassy on site and not the same as sunblock, standing on a blood of grass on the side. the weight i say, really is it's right to a national security police unable to risk demand, because he has a diplomatic immunity. the russian embassy sees, he said, to quotes, ensure the safety of the size, the location is close to parliament house intelligence agency, say the embassy could be used to spy on australia and politicians. it's very close to parliament house. that's an a lot of side between the major telecommunications tell and problem and house it gives them an enormous advantage for age dropping for intelligence gathering. and given what we've seen in ukraine and the approach that

russia is taken to relations of globally, that's just not acceptable in australia any longer. russia both the lease to the land from the stadium government in 2008, and was granted approval to build a new embassy in 2011 bots of last week. a strategy is paloma, possibly to slice than to terminate russia's tendency. and you're starting to know where she are not. unfortunately, for us, australia continues to move zealously in the wake of the authors of the russell phobic hysteria that is now going on in the countries of the collective west. australia is trying to be a stand out amongst these countries rushed as low as the high court challenges to cameras. decision on the grounds that it's against strictly is constitution. and
