9:03 am
reservists this week. while some head off to fight others are fleeing the country. soaring prices for plane tickets, mean land crossings like this when on the border with georgia, are jammed with traffic. they travel by car on bicycles and even on foot to get out . georgia is one of a handful of countries which allows russians to enter without fees us. still doing it for the matter is not that we are afraid. near the matter is that we don't like the situation. i do not like what they are doing and ukraine isn't. i feel sorry for our brothers. yeah. but i, i have many relatives in ukraine, and i don't like this at all. yeah. the order has led to several protests across russia. hundreds of arrests and accusations of discrimination in bery yatta, a mountainous republic and eastern siberia, some 6000 kilometers from moscow. activists say the kremlin is placing the burden
9:04 am
of the mobilization and the war itself on poor ethnic minority regions. this is julia, full scale mobilization is going on. it's in no way the partial mobilization that vladimir putin announced earlier on the shore. and we also think that it's a question of empire putin, many times is positioned himself as an imperialist. everyone knows how empires treat their ethnic minorities for man, like something that can be used in a couple more sports. some men in the region have reportedly gone into hiding. others have responded to the mobilization order by crossing into neighboring mongolia. we can now speak to russia, analyst konstantin eggers. he joins us from the lithuanian capital, villainous, hello to you, konstantin. so it's been 3 days now since putin declared what he's calling a partial mobilization. what more do we know about who and how many are actually
9:05 am
being conscripted to fight in ukraine? let's see him are now the, this mobilization is not partial by the rights. it's not partial it's, it's very massive. but there are ex exemptions which were publicized by the crime in the yesterday, by the way to my, my bit late i'm and they are predictable. why people from state media i, they put his propaganda machine. i excluded from this draft or on the cool op ah bankers to ensure a smooth functioning, a functioning of the banking system. and i d specialist, although that a made a report than many id specialist and many just banking clarks were cold up. so it seems to be a big bill and, and, oh, belated reaction and trying to kind of fix areas in the are russian economy that are vital. ah, there is, i would say also a very fair assumption that lots of most of stayed bureaucrats of high level or
9:06 am
more most of the security services and police and the russian national dog will remain in place and will not be called up to maintain control over the situation in russia itself, so there are definitely exceptions, but judging by a massive sort of the number of records that we get, it seems that in all, all the areas and it is people of different age, different occupation, those who serve those who didn't. so that they're being around it up and send to the training camps 1st and i supposed to the front of that. now there's not been much public opposition in russia to the war in ukraine. is this conscription likely to change that? i think that over time there's going to be a certain weariness with this will, especially when bodies start to come back to the families almost frank,
9:07 am
to speak him or the before glad it was war. and talented a fool. the majority of russians now is going to enter quite a lot of homes, and the fact eventually will be for some families to become enraged and to say, well, you know, we'll have to kill whole grains. we have to avenge our, our relatives for the others. it will be, let's get out of it as soon as possible. m. probably the sub will become a case where we're reconsidering. will they think that of that or in the situation? russian. all right. that was russia analyst, konstantin anger, at constantine. thank you so much. thank you. let's turn our attention to iran now, which has seen an 8th straight night, a protest bar by the death of a young woman detained by the country's religious police crowns. the protesters gathered hours after a counter demonstrations backed by the government. the unrest has spread to towns and cities across iran, active as say at least 50 anti government protesters have been killed by iranian
9:08 am
security forces. ah, hunger among iranian women, still reaching the burning the head scarves and defines that is unprecedented in this law, mac republic. it began with the custodial death of masa, a mimi, a 22 year old goodish woman arrested by her on so called morality police. dozens, i believe to have been killed in the unrest. brought us have spread to cities around the world. the oh, you're in brussels. iranian women are calling for change in their home country. now they view men of your on they are not victim under industry to say me, never been victim. they try to make us as a victim. they try to control our body as an object of sex. they try to control or
9:09 am
sexuality or bodies for dare ideology for a jack to your critique regime me are to say the are against kill critique regime. need john 20 of 3 gene. me want to overthrow decision masses become a symbol of the oppression that women have been facing in iran for 43 years. it's different this time because the country is united and they're all saying together, no more islamic republic of iran. it's this lawmaker republic versus iran. and we're here to support them to do everything we can to be their megaphone to be their echo chamber. back in there on the regime is organizing its own demonstrations. all the protesters and rioters that took to the streets are not ordinary people. there are train groups that have entered our country to destroy the ruling system. okay. we definitely won't allow this to happen. and it is an outline. looking this up up we'll step. but there are fewer that the states
9:10 am
response will go beyond. going to put her on st. jude justice called for security forces to respond to any further anti government protests with force. you're an expert at non tba to buy, told us earlier that these demonstrations have tapped into many resentments, felt by ordinary iranians. what is really important, i believe this time around is that this is really about socio political grievances as the starting point. but of course, other grievances, of economic hardship and lack of any sort of political representation of the wider population are at the core of these protests. and what about the response by the iranian government? i mean, how brutal di expect them to be what action do you think they're going to take to qualities protests?
9:11 am
yeah, unfortunately, the longer these protests are taking, the more violence we see on the streets em. i mean we've it, they are, there's a lot of anger in the air so to speak, and then vandalism happens, other forms of clashes and for more violence it becomes the more brutal to crack down, but also do so we have to expect a new see new yeah, unfortunately, but do you think there's any chance that these protests will lead to any kind of change in iran? look at the one thing that makes me slightly hopeful is that at the very, very early beginning of this, a lot of current and former officials have actually spoken out very critically against the mandatory head job, or at least it's enforcement. so those voices prevail. and i hope they do, then we may see some sort of gradual changes on that front. other than that, i'm afraid that these protests will be silenced and then eventually come up again
9:12 am
in this, in the next cycle. and that was iran analyst adnan habit of i thank you so very much. my pleasure. thank you. italy has for the polls on sunday with an alliance of right wing parties, tipped for victory george out maloney. his party has neo fascist routes. is the front runner to become the next prime minister. the country is poised to choose the most far and government since the 2nd world war. oh, they are gearing up for a victim. tens of thousands have gathered here in rome and support of his self described center. right coalition, former prime minister silvio berlusconi, ex interior minister, mature. so the and the rising star on the far right ga maloney, have joint forces. maloney of the post fascist brothers of diddly party looks like to become italy's next prime minister. campaigning on guard family and homeland.
9:13 am
there are few, she may rollback on civil rights and in danger. democracy, people here see maloney's party as the answer to many problems. jessica is out about seeks to safeguard our national identity with an increasingly globalized and crisis written world. krishi and i had youngest, we believe that without her, our country will continue in a downward spiral that has been going on for a while and that is looking at it like that. ga maloney's right is definitely not her radical right dad. it's a right that basically defends italy's interest. he then he died. yeah. her supporters want a strong leader and to night maloney renews her promise to take on the establishment who has frightened of us. there are people who are afraid. friends of those who are in positions, they do not deserve just because they are members of the democratic party. it's good, they fear us. you go in italy, public opinion is divided between the left and the right. the reason the center right is so far ahead in the polls has to do with their strategy of the parties
9:14 am
that are traditionally representing people from the left did not run together. they didn't and managed to make a single collision. very south. this is the 1st important advantage by descent. the right, the right has the attention of the entire country that they are setting the agenda during the selection campaign other than the democratic party, their largest rival on the left has been live playing catch up. met shimoda, a lot is at stake. the social and economic model is at stake. fiscal proposal, it's by the right, a favor which people days and i get the proposal for more presidential system and modifying the constitution inevitable. so that if it's an intel eas moment, if you got a legacy you'd see on it, it is too early to tell what a far right government would mean for italy and europe. throughout the campaign, judge maloney has sought to tone down her messages to convince moderate voters to vote for her. if this election rally as any indication, she may well half succeed. you're watching the w news. a quick reminder now of our
