the fucking heavy metal festival has returned. let's begin in ukraine. there are the families of prisoners of war, a growing, increasingly concerned for their loved ones. 50 ukrainian soldiers have died in russian custody each morning if gania would kevin take some time for herself and quite to look at her son, she hasn't heard from maxine since russian forces captured him 2 months ago. she scared that might be torturing him, or that he might be dead. you know, so then i sit in the kitchen and just cry while my husband is still sleeping. when he gets up, i wash my face in person lights and try to be strong for the day and not to cry anymore. only in the early mornings. i allow myself to cry. what's it once it does when it is? yeah, the couple invited us to their home because they want the world to know about their son. his parents say, maxine volunteered to join the army, even though he is

a pacifist, he had worked as a journalist and activist campaigning for refugees and human rights. but when russia invaded, he decided to take more direct action to wishing school. so she directed me to he told me, i'm joining the army because i have to defend the values i've been fighting for my whole life. yes, this is bruce. they only realized he had been captured when a video of maxine being interrogated was shown on russian state media with to boucher. it was horrible. the 1st thing i felt was just horror. i saw my only child listen. so i thought that can't be true crow kremlin telegram tenants quickly called maxime, a nazi a nationalist. they even said he was a british spy because he had worked as a local producer for the b, b. c in 2003. maybe in the blue cross blue 2,

my biggest concern is that they might not recognize him as a prisoner of war like they have with others e and that they would fabricate a criminal case against him. so using all those lies and twisted evidence, latisha with some of a good, a storage it was, this will be free. our domestic intelligence sources confirm that russia is holding more than 7000 ukrainian so just prisoner, but they won't talk about any of it on camera. because negotiations for prisoners swabs a top secret. a lawyer representing the families of more than 50 captured soldiers has agreed to talk with us. let us laugh. we cannot see. f works closely with domestic intelligence to try to get prisoners back. he expects that russia will fire more and more criminal cases against ukrainian prisoners of war. i think this is so this is done mostly for their political purposes. when you create search and you know, important to person gray largish, you know,

you can use it to in their political, you know, treat but yes, gania and alexandra, i don't want things to get that far. they fired an urgent appear to the european court of human rights. they say they will fight with every thing they have until maxine is friendly. ah, on the border between morocco and the spanish exclaim miller, security forces are violently driving back refugees the you and condemns. what it calls the unacceptable use of excessive force. moroccan border guards round up and attack people trying to get over the fence. the guy look violence and contempt in a situation with no solution for either side. it's difficult to tell who was

alive and who might be dead. a truen was there that day that he'd you even in the floor. the heat use homework. you know, after you knock out, you know, if you don't know anything, you come move they, they will leave you. if you come move there will hit you tell you, you can move. we meet a troon in the derelict school in casablanca, where he's been living. he level serious accusations against the spanish police. he says he had already reached european territory where he was seeking asylum, but he maintains the officers forcibly deported him. local journalists, javier on gusto was inside the spanish city of melia. when crowds stormed the border in june. he confirms that trans account, it'll get him. with a medical mark, i saw several dozen migrants minus we get over the bottle and no one else has no

idea. they will illegally devoted straightaway. i recommend going up with didn't even have like johns to game asylum. you'll have what he on the spanish police simply send them back. that would be, oh my god. that's illegal. under international law, many of the migrants were from countries entitling them to refugee status in europe . we put the claims to the head of the regional government. there might be one or 2 cases that have been many attempts to get across the border. recently we were all worried about the wall, rising green bases, missile and be been going hungry. they are real consequences from all of that or less realty. i was totally midway. melia is a small city with a population of around $90000.00. it's one of the few european territories which has a land border with africa. journalist javier says spain as happy to pay out millions

to its african neighbors. to keep migrants back from its border maroka, i felt like morocco music. he doesn't know the won't for us. we want to be seen as a beacon for human rights. but he yeah, yeah. what i, what hamper lucky in this fence, for example, was previously especially wishes type of raise a shot bob wire. i'm rights activists complained that the spanish took it down and then with that, but then being just bade morocco more money than with any money. and now exactly the same res offense has gone up on the other side. what would it be? no, any level. my okay. several spanish cities saw protests after the unrest on june 24 . the interior minister now has to testify before the european parliament. but the prime minister pedro sanchez has praised the security forces on both sides, back in morocco, a true remains. undeterred. he's already tried 10 times to get into spain, and he's ready for attempt number 11.
