displaced by historic water levels that have claimed more than 900 lies. ah. a michael ok, thanks for joining us. residents of a small town in eastern ukraine or burying their dead after this week's devastating russian attack on the ukrainian independence day. at least $25.00 people, including 2 children, were killed by russian rockets in the small town of chop lena. our correspondent yon phillip sholtes, attended the funeral of one of the children who was among the victims. ah, motley would have had his 1st day of school next week. in peaceful times, the 6 year old boy will not live to see this day anymore. the whole neighbourhood came to say good bye. oh,

some of the little him he was the most precious thing in my life. no, it's still so incredibly sod for my daughter. there's nothing left. she doesn't even have a home any more. much to be was the quiet boy. his grandmother says his home was directly across the street from the towns train station. the family was just getting ready for dinner. when russian rocket started to strike the neighbourhood. much me was playing in the living room when the selling started. and then he ran over to the kitchen where some other family members were. and that's when the rocketed and killed the little boy. immediately. russia claimed responsibility for the attack. the military said it wanted to destroy a train that was supposedly carrying ukrainian soldiers, and they apparently considered the death of motley and many others as acceptable collateral damage for their operation. it's the worst tragedy that has ever happened in the small town up to plein of them may i tell,

but it brought the community to get what you say. the parents of the dead children have gone through an incredible amount of stress. we know it's very hard for them to go on with life, but least we try everything possible to support them. a little more things again. besides matt via an 11 year old boy from the same neighbourhood died in the take. the war has already cost the lives of more than $1000.00. so when the 2 boys from south lina probably won't be the left. russia has blocked a final declaration on the you ends main nuclear treaty. after a month long conference on disarm, in that, the russian delegation criticized the draft statement as political in unbalanced people. the document included a statement of grave concern about finding around ukraine nuclear sites. without naming russia specifically, to other countries. express disappointment saying that russia was undermining

international people. the when social you dark energy analysts say russia is destroying natural gas stocks. they claim massive burn offs at a plant near the finish russian border waste $10000000.00 euros worth of fuel every day. finish, residents have reported seeing large flares and feeling much warmer conditions. the facility prepares russian gas for transport to germany, a valuable commodity, vanishing into sin air. while the rest of europe struggles with shortages of natural gas, russia seems to have too much of it. analysts have taken special interest in this russian gas terminal located in port to via bay near the finished russian border. the north $31.00 gas pipeline to germany, starts in port to via and and u. l n. g plant has been built at the site satellite data collected by a norwegian energy consultancy suggests that the so called flaring of gases taking

place here at unusual levels. we observed that russia has been wearing ever since july 11th of mid july, which coincides with the maintenance that occurred or began on shame on. but interestingly, flaring actually continued despite the partial operations being resumed. women are extreme one. back in late july. russia has reduced gas exports to europe, leaving it with a large surplus of gas. that could be one explanation for the burn off. experts said at western sanctions could also be to blame. they say flaring might be a sign of russia lacking the proper equipment to operate. the facility bearing does come at a cost for both economically and environmentally. and there is a loss associated with flaring, obviously, because you're burning off those valuable products that could otherwise be sold. so i would say flaring isn't, you know,

it is only done if necessary. and that's why we've seen widespread, minimize glaring over the years. but i would say it's if russians doing this, it's possibly due to, you know, geo politics. but it could also very much be technical issues and possibly even safety issues from russia. energy company gas problem has not commented on the burning off of gas at the port to via facility. the use has accused to rush up using gas as a weapon to fight back against sanctions imposed over the war in ukraine. i spoke to d. w as russia analyst, konstantin agood from vilnius in lithuania, and asked him why russia would burn off millions of euro's worth of gush. well, your guess is as good as mine. ah, oh, i see that the probably bugs i do think that, ah, when you hear the words gas and russia and putin in one sentence that does usually

politics and that i think that even if the portfolio facility ah, can handle such a lot of up such a big amounts of gas, which is a possibility with you ah, decreasing it's embossed from russia. it still could have probably send something to storage. it could have warned the neighbors. but this very demonstrative flaring does have a very, very clear with of the gremlins sort of, if you wish, or p r stunt. and frankly speaking, as far as i know, putting is very well very well informed about all the intricacies of the functioning of the gas pipeline systems, pumping station stuff like that. little, there's a lot of information about the lots of testimonies that he does really immerse himself in that. so i suppose i don't go, they don't put an order that, but definitely i'm sure that this has a very clear political message to be sent to europe. the terminal at to put

a via is the starting point for the north stream one pipeline. remind us how this relates to the energy crisis in europe at the moment. well, a rush has been use a north stream pipeline as a lever to, i'm sorry to impact european attitude towards it's aggression in ukraine. ah, just a few days ago got prom stopped. i'm sending pumping guess through north 31 pipeline, which is one of the central pipelines going into europe. citing technical reasons. it is part of a pre typical criminal shawn to ours. a blackmail all of the europeans in order to basically change their position. these are the rushes war against you, crime and with europe, promising to get off 2 thirds of russian guest by next year. i'm sure that putting that was is in quite a hurry. let's put it like that. we have half a minute constant, tina, but it strikes me,

it's very difficult to see images of this enormous burn off without also considering the environmental cost. yes, but that is exactly the message and knowing that a the nordic countries not western europe has better care. read it like that. that is the at least my reading that his our konstantin eggers in vilnius many, many thanks. as always. constantine. thank you. look now tell me the other stories making headlines at their shower. the un children's agency says an ethiopian airstrike has had a kindergarten in the revel held to gr i region. at least 4 people, including 2 children, were killed. unicef has condemned the resumption of fighting. if the opiate denies it was behind the attack election, officials in angola say the ruling party has won just over 50 percent of the vote. with nearly all ballots counted, that would give the m p l a majority in parliament and president dwell lorenzo. a

that something that the president finds is an important thing to do for the department of justice to have that independence got to be a very hard so far. no formal accusations have been made against trump, but the affidavit has revealed why the thought at mater lago was necessary in the eyes of federal investigators. and finally, pop music sands have been celebrating the release of a highly anticipated duet between 2 of the industries biggest names o old be closer east to 1st, nissan by britney spears, since the end of her guardianship last year. it's a collaboration with elton john in his based on his 971 song tiny dancer. the duet has already shocked to the top of streaming charts, perhaps no surprise. ah,
