a racist rampage. joe biden arrives in buffalo, new york, where he's expected koval strick, the gun laws, and meet with the families of the 10 people shot dead by once it premises on saturday. and for the 1st time since the start of the pandemic, the con film festival is back without restrictions. so it's time to grab the popcorn and take a listen to our correspondence take on. this is big screen offerings. ah, i've been fas all and good to have you along. over $260.00 ukrainian soldiers have surrendered. they'd been hold up in a still works in the southern city of mariano for weeks. it ends the longest siege of the war so far and puts russia in full control that the key city rush is already taken. hundreds of the fighters, some severely wounded to territory held its forces. the kremlin says they'll be

treated in accordance with international agreements. the daniel, the russian defense ministries, as these pictures show mar, you pull fighters undergoing inspection before being evacuated. dozens of wounded troops have been taken from are you pull to hospital in the russian controlled town of noble as offs in the far east. some 200 others were transferred north to all the nif cut. in rushing back to supper, his territory several 100 ukrainian soldiers could still be inside the as of style steel plant. keith says it wants to get them out alive, whom i am on. that usually does. we hope to save the lives of our boys. and among them, a heavily wounded. they have been treated obama. i want to on the line ukraine needs . it's ukrainian here is alive. this is our principle is the love of the man. simpleton loves of the work continues to bring our boys home and it requires delicacy and time just in keith. many ukrainians are skeptical about russia's

pledge to treat ukrainian soldiers in line with international norms. during her nothing good will come of it. we don't know how they will be treated. actually we do know what we have already seen in boucher, a pin on the other towns. injuries are stone. remember it probably isn't very good different. but if there is no of the way the soldiers can be saved later, russian backed separatist have released this video, which they say shows them patrolling. the as of style still works on tuesday. it like the rest of mar, you pull, is largely in ruins. the cities loss is a major, symbolic blow for ukraine. and one that came at a heavy price for both sides. d, w is funny for china is in key. if i asked her whether you quite is expecting to release russian prisoners as part of

a steel. what we know at this point is that actually ukraine is trying to get more more i saw just out of the as of stars steel plan. there's no information when that prisoners walk is going to take place. in fact, people here in ukraine, a wondering whether it's going to take place at all if they listen to the debate going on there in russia, some law may cause basically a cooling for these i have evacuated as of a sol, as soldiers from the, as of regiment that they have to be brought to justice basically that the do not vote deserve to live. also, the justice ministry in russia basically cause in the supreme court right now to declare that as of a regiment is a terrorist organization. as a result, clearly people here and ukraine order and the people are quite skeptical that is going to be a prisoner swap. and they actually quite worried when it comes to the safety of those or the out of the as of saw steel plant. what is really their fate? now we have to zoom in a little bit on the history of the hours of regiment. because part of the truth is

also that when a vis a military unit started as a voluntary militia 8 years ago. the leader at that time was harboring quite radical views. but presidents and n ski sat and kept saying, when he was asked about the as of regiment and their meaning today, he said that they've been reformed. they are no longer radical. in fact, they should be viewed as euro's where the last defenders of mary paul for more than 18 days. basically i trying to win time for, for ukrainian forces to advance and other parts in other parts of the country. but it remains a controversial unit nonetheless. and the question is whether that controversy that, that russia took as a pretext to invade ukraine. what that is going to mean into himself, whether the ukraine is ukrainian soldiers. i going to stay alive or not. we do not know. and funny, what's happening to those soldiers who weren't able to leave a steel plant at all? well, the kremlin

a basically saw that putting guarantees that every one who surrender is going to be treated according to international law. but what about those who did not surrender yet? that's exactly what also the sister of one of the soldiers is wondering about to day. as she does not know about the fate of her brother 26 year old young man who has been basically a lawyer before joining the us of regiment. because he is the patriots, that's what his sister says. what, what's going to happen to him now? is he going to make it out of there, alive? let's have a look at the report. for natalia, the war in ukraine has been a time of intense worry and reflection. yes, she's thinking a launch about her younger brother these days at them we brought this is my brother artem at school when he was 8 or 9 o'clock voice and it natalia recalls a very normal charge with growing up in michel live in southern ukraine. i. i always considered art him to be a creative person and that he would go down a more creative path. i never thought he'd become a soldier. but one,

the war and don't. bus began in 2014. natalia says are to him changed in his now sure. on the ship, he knew that sooner or later the aggressor will bring war to our country. and he knew that he needed to prepare national, greenly e ross does. now shit that i bought the, what the state are to him was 26, joined the arms of regiment a few years ago. it was formed as if born here militia group and later became part of the national guard. he still hold up. he are in the eyes of stone steel plant. the last holdout of ukraine's forces in the port city of from are you pull the regiment released these pictures displaying the horrible conditions. some of the fighters are in put in, accuses the unit of being not cease. he's justified his invasion by claiming that ukraine needs, in his words, the nazi fi inc, which has drawn a backlash globally here and key. the unit is seen as heroes. billboards have

sprung up, supporting the soldiers ye inclusive. i am expressing huge gratitude for them for standing, for us and for our ukraine natural. then johan was looking for puritan, as for every russian ever ukrainian is radical. but we only want to live on our own and we strive to speak our own language. and every, as of soldier is a ukrainian wasn't as o t o green. because leslie co chair researchers, right when groups he says it's correct that the found are suppose up harbored neo nazi views. but in this, that's changed now for all those guys who were interested in politics more than in a military actually gone from there, but ali on and threads them. and after a 1st several months of its existing in 2014, natalia doesn't want to get into also of controversial past. she's more worried for her brother artem norwood so on his so here he was texting me that he's alive. he

has room and that's it. he writes very short messages, unfortunately there's room holding on to signs of life and hoping her brother will return a life funny since you filled with natalia, have you had an update from her she's basically saying that she's appealing to the pope to help her brother being released safe and sound from the as of solstio plan, and in fact, she was suggesting would it be much better if turkey i would have extracted the thought, yours and lay book that's currently unfolding here as russia and ukraine agreed for this or on this prison as well, only nobody knows whether that's actually going to take place. okay, time will say, funny for china, our correspondent in ukraine in the capital, kia, thank you very much for the update. sweden is formerly applying for nato membership, foreign minister and linda signed the official application that the foreign

ministry in stock on both sweden and finland seeking to join the alliance after russia's invasion of you, great villains parliament on choose. they also approved its application with an overwhelming majority brushing foreign minister survey lever offset, it would not make a difference if they joined the alliance despite previously combative rhetoric from graham, like turkey said, it would lock them up when you were with hon. oh, yeah. and is an expert on european security and international relations, often london, sweden's nato applications adding value to the alliance or burdening it with greater risk. i would say definitely i'm adding that in you. and it goes both ways that the 2 countries are very able, ah, in defending themselves, they will be strengthened via the north of native and also the baltic sea region.

and the other way around ne, 2 will be strengthening their security. how well equipped would you say, both of them are in defending themselves against the likes of russia? and they have both quite cable will defend cease and they also collaborating ah bilaterally and very actually very deep. i'm going defense collaboration between the 2. ah, there is also the other nordic defense cooperation dimensions that might get new possibilities. now, when all the fight, nordic countries will be nato members. so that old will give new impetus for deeper cooperation. new impetus, but no new weapons. vladimir burton says he doesn't have a problem with the move as long as it doesn't involve the lines moving weapons or troops into swedish or finished territory. is that going to be a problem?

knows that it's not getting to to be a problem. so there has been a lot of discuss discussion on this in, in the countries but, and then has never been a goal. that is, that the goal of membership is not to, to make more troops come to finland or to, ah, ah, fitness stationed on the territory. and what about the turkey aspect, turkeys president, edwin has told sweden and finland not to bother sending delegations given to his country to approve their bid. so is that it for their hopes of later membership and that was certainly a surprise. and apparently, and one already said previously that, that he considered these 2 countries, nato membership, a good idea. oh, was approving it. and now he seems to have changed opinion. this

pain as a surprise and has caused a lot of discussion. our president, he's in sweden to day and i'm sure they also discussing this message there. and i think it is the question of turkey wanting to get something in return for its approval. and what that is, it is difficult to say. and well, it is also a way, i'm an example that shows how the dynamics within native maybe dynamics is totally shifting right now, where things are interesting, regional alliances, falling out of all yadda from stanford university. and phil, thank you very much for being on the shore. thank you. at a quick look at some other stories to day clashes have erupted in libya after fancy,

basha got the country's parliamentary, appointed prime minister, attempted to enter the capital. tripoli, elated withdrew from the city, citing the safety of civilians of the violence broke out 2 rival administrations of buying for power. following the end of the civil war, 2 years ago, you win has called for com. clashes are broken out at a funeral in jerusalem for palestinian men. it was fatally injured during breathing violence at the alex and mosque. israeli police fire t gas and rubber bullets after mourners through stones and find works. police arrested multiple palestinians while dozens more were injured. u. s. troops will be returning to somalia to help local authorities, they find out about militant group. president joe biden approved the redeployment, reversing a decision by his predecessor, donald trump, to withdraw us forces in 2020 somali is new, the elected president. hassan shake mohammed is promised to work closely with foreign partners. he was president biden is in buffalo, new york, where

a gunman shot dead 10 people just days ago. police are investigating the attack as a racist hate crime. the president and 1st lady are expected to meet with family members of those killed as well as community leaders. give edge gum, and he's an 18 year old to with some support for white supremacist ideals. attack the grocery store in a predominantly african american neighbourhood. and 11 of the 13 people hit with gunfire with black small, that's cause i have to value as bureau chief in his pole who's in buffalo this good to see you. president biden has arrived in buffalo. what more can you tell us? right, so the 1st stop he he made was right exactly here next to the market where the shooting happened last saturday. he stopped with 1st lady dill bite and at a memorial for some 10 minutes or so. i prayed and really paid respect to those who

got killed right now. he's meeting with family members of those who got killed and 1st responders later today. he is expected to deliver a speech and is expected to really address this mash shooting as a hate crime. and probably also talk a little bit about the moment when he saw neo nazis and writes of premises walking the streets of charlotteville and virginia. because that was the moment when he decided to run for president to and i quote him here, undertake a battle for the soul of america. what do we know about this teenage suspect? so and it's really interesting because it kind of reminds of as of other a mass murderer. so he was a 17 when he was just about to graduate and i got asked, so what are your plans for the future?

and then he said he wants to go to, to, to do a mass, a shooting than he obviously i was brought to hospital and under when some, a kind of a doctoral, a things. but then he was a guy when he got out of this hospital of this i of psychiatry under graduated and then he kind of got of the rate of the police. we also know that he got his 1st weapon when he was only 16 from his father. we know that he was pretty good in school by the loaner. so this is something we see very often that these people who big do do this. mash shootings are kind of socially a different and that they are very often already kind of were known to police. and you talked about the rise of white supremacy. i mean the you wears tell us about a replacement theory, which is something that people are talking about right now. right. the suspect also

of order 180 pages, long manifesto really dealing or arguing this replacement theory. basically, it says that white americans are threatened by not white americans who want to replace them. republican party members use that to theory, that conspiracy theory a to argue against democrats, saying that they only lead in immigrants to the united states because they would vote for them. so this is a very highly political. i bloated a theory which, which actually was started by a french, a writer and 2012 and was also kind of used by president donald trump, to stir fear and anger towards non white americans. as u. s. bureau chief ines paul, thank you. early results from lebanon's parliamentary

election are indicating losses for allies of the countries iran backed. his ballade group final result is still to be determined, but a christian party with strong ties to saudi arabia and the u. s. is made gains. it's unclear whether his belie and its allies will hang on to the majority in the countries $128.00 c. parliament. has mila supporters struck an upbeat tone on election night, but it soon became apparent that their cheering was premature. the parliamentary block, led by the she ain't, is a miss group, took a major hint. early results show that its allies have lost support. opponents of has bella made gains, including the christian lebanese forces party, which is linked to saudi arabia. the early result comes amid the worst economic and financial crisis, lebanon has ever seen the deadly explosion in the port of beirut. nearly 2 years

ago made things even more dire. many people can barely afford basic necessities. even polling stations like this, one in tripoli were not spared from the daily power cuts me before i die, i want to see lebanon. the weight was when i was young, we went to school, finished our education, lebanon was lebanon, then i want to die knowing lebanon is back again. okay. so let's put that here for you. okay. i voted for change of course accrued because we can't go on like this. them of a lebanon needs to wake up and lift itself up and, and that's something i support with said that our children can continue to live in this country from m. and where are you, the law, charlotte, voter turnout was only 41 percent. and many observers said the countries complex so called confessional power sharing political system has paralyzed the state. but

others hope that the success of opposition parties may finally lead to real change to the south of france, where the con film festival opens today. it's the 1st time since the start of the pandemic that the festival is being held without restrictions. he w scott brooks's brand, adrian kennedy, have been watching some of the films on offer the cam film festival returns to relative normality after 2 years of coverage pandemic disruption ad can is taking off looking to be chalk gone again. cove. it also put breaks on the release of top gun, maverick, which will finally have its international launch. one has been sort of less mystery sure. more than 35 years after the 1986 original tom cruises, resurrection of the famous fight,

a pilot is symbolic of the festivals own surgeon with $48.00 or if wanted to confirm another eagerly await new film is from called canadian filmmaker david cronum berg. after an achia high actors, the master of 40 horror dusted off a 20 year old script for his new film. crimes of the future ah, like was avenue in the body. particular. what's happening was my body vigo. mortensen lead to star studded cast as a performance artist, showcasing the metamorphosis of his own organs. the for seen a little can. razzmatazz is provided by elvis. oh,

bears. lumens by a pic starring austin butler as the king of rock and roll. and tom hanks as his manager to colonel tom parker is a romp through the good, the bad and the ugly of american culture with elvis betrayed in the direct his own words as the original superhero. ah, let's go over to con. where did all you scott rock spur is standing by for a scott at the 2 years of pandemic disruptions is can really now back to its full glitz glory. well, it definitely feels that way. i mean, i've been coming to this vessel for a long time, and this year it really feels there's real excitement in the air that i really,

i really best. and i, in the, in these 2 to pandemic years of it's not just the fact that this is the 1st sort of normal festival that is without mass, without testing, without any sort of the pandemic, pandemic add ons that we've had at other events over the last 2 years, but there's also sort of the pent up energy in the whole sort of film industry. i mean, take a film like top gun. that movie was actually finished 2 years ago, but it was put on the shelf because the studio that made it paramount didn't want to release it until it could be sure that the film to be seen in theaters around the world. and so they brought it here to can like so many of the films are being shown here because they're looking at this festival almost as a big restart button. not just for the cam film festival, but really for the global cinema industry. with a means more films i, i won't be sad, but what are the highlights that i should look out for the next 12 days? i will cancel was really good. a balancing sort of the big

razzmatazz, glamour films that fill direct period. interesting and often groundbreaking. oh, tour art house movies. you've got these big movies like top gun maverick, like elvis, big hollywood films. that look very, very good. and i think will drive people into theaters, but the real core of can are these art house movies. we saw a bit of david cronan works, new film crimes, the future, which i'm really excited to see. it looks like a return to his very disturbing master pieces of, of old. and there's another film that, that really caught my eye by alley, a bossy, use a danish iranian director. it's described as a serial killer of thriller film, the wires set in modern day around is called a holy spider. looks very, very interesting. but really i can go down the list of almost all the films in competition this year. there's so many great, interesting, and groundbreaking, a directors, kelly rice, hard pen park, jen. whoop. claire denise,

they all have their new films here, and i think the films being shown over here and can, over the next 2 weeks, are the movies that will be self determining the cultural conversation for the whole year. what about the political compensation? is the war in ukraine costing some sort of shadow the proceedings there? yeah, well, i mean, of course, i mean, the word you came seems worlds away from, from across that here in can. but we are seeing the impact, the russian delegation. there's usually a large number of russian filmmakers, other members of the russian film industry here on the, on the quote that they've all been banned as a result of the, a war and ukraine. and the festival itself is trying to put a focus on ukranian filmmakers and the ukranian film industry. we have a number of ukrainian films screening here, one which looks like a very powerful documentary that was actually shot in the, at the center of the war of the last

a couple of months in the dom bass region was tragically killed during the shooting of it but they managed to get to put it out, that documentary will be shown here. so you can see, while it's not necessarily, you'll have to read me. thank god, sorry, we're running out of the bio down and can we can escape the ukraine. we cannot, i bainsville and thanks for watching detail with, [000:00:00;00]
