critical statement about the actions of the russian army can lead to a fine or imprisonment, which is why most independent media have had to leave russia were closed down altogether. tiger dot info decided to stay and continue the web portals. now 18 year history, but it hasn't been easy. and well, one was in the when the village knew you were forced to constantly maneuver and not cross the red lines of the circle of people who continue to talk to us has become smaller. the smaller because even those who have always sympathized with us are now forced to keep their distance from it has become much harder to get information in order to protect colleagues from possible prosecution. tiger dot info decided not to report directly on the war, but it's consequences for people on economic problems, social problems. and of course on mobile ization, the creators constantly face opposition from the authorities. recently,
12:08 pm
they were met with a hostile reaction from state television. when tiger dot info exposed to deputy people who signed up as a volunteer for the front and disappeared on his way to ukraine, a traitor in the ranks. that's a headache for the authorities. that's just for when the course we're all afraid, the problem norm. but either you are trapped in this fear of a split or you can overcome it and make change happen with if moses opened it, of course this change can only be achieved with small steps. meaning when you might store what we shouldn't just stay silent again, a karate me more money, more it. although the media regulator blocks tie good dot info a year ago, the website reaches its audience through vpn encryption. and they want to continue reporting on russia in russia at least 8 children have been killed after

12:10 pm
was born on 2009. so that means he's a 7th grade or fellow mentor, a school. it's unbelievable that he, he shot that 8 of his schoolmates and one guardian. and 6 more one didn't. plus one teacher. it's unbelievable. what's happening here. the police surrounding cold places from 8 30 in the morning. we cannot come near to the interest of the school. and there is a police members here also the emergency ambulance. also you can, you can see the parents now they're gone, but she's been here. they, they've been trying to find out what's going on with their kids because the other kids who survive, stay in the school with no information and no contact with their parents.
12:11 pm
so they were afraid in status of complete shot. and they now, we just learned that 15 minutes ago, they get back to their parents since school is close. eagle, other, any clues as to a possible motive? no clue has lots of speculation. some of them is that that kid was angry on the teacher of history and no, no complete speculation. i mean, we can only speculate at the moment what was the bought you, but it's unbelievable that he's got a pistol and that key can come into the school. the schools got the security camera, but the pistol was in the backpack, and that's called, can't get into the school,

12:13 pm
successful though from what i also read hundreds of thousands of illegal weapons is still in circulation for 90. probably. yeah, that is correct. but most, most of the back actually the rural area. i mean, of course they've got kids in the base and so far, but you don't see here in the serbia the culture that the people are carrying the gun with them. so it's not, it is forbidden. you have to have a license to go on the street. and of course, i don't know the reason why people have a gun and the cards are the kinds of weapons at their home. but that's not call. all of them are thinking. so all of these campaigns
12:14 pm
for the rest definitely should be emerge this right moment. so i suppose the thought and you will much bigger campaign or will go on a proposal for the news channel tv, and one. joining us from belgrade from that school where we've just heard least 8 children haven't been killed after a 14 year old boy opened fire at an elementary school, also a security guard dead and the teacher believe to be in a critical condition. thank you. and we'll look at some more stories making use from around the world. a major fire broke out at a fuel demo in russia. near the crimean bridge, note deaths or injuries were reported. russia. crimea have been the target of a series of attacks in recent days ahead of a plan to counter offensive by ukrainian forces for my audi boss or batch statler

there are going to you again, tens of thousands, also escaping to sedans, neighboring countries. having recently arrived in the city of us, one in egypt, jasa hopes to be able to return home, seen them been remodeled to the number through denise, people were destined to enter this war, but i hope it will be a short war. i'm a man and that the army can restore normality. i'll feel why in this is the combination of years of long standing mistakes for o. e. that it seems that the current generation in sudan is destined to pay the price of other in your thoughts on a long body. the people of sudan currently paying a very high price. the un estimates that if the fighting continues, the humanitarian crisis could worse and, and that around $800000.00 people could be forced to flee. the country of ling sudan is a challenging and risky endeavor. earlier we spoke to a journalist,
12:18 pm
matt now shed, choose, covering advanced from neighboring egypt. he told us more about the latest on the situation in sudan. yeah, situation hasn't improved very much. i mean, there are talks at both committee and they're hard to belligerence is or would be keen to sell people in order to jumpstart negotiations. but again, violence is still taking place in cartoon with little aid relief reaching the capital city. there has been reports that some 8 organizations, international relief organizations to be specific. how decide to restart operations . but the question now are they able to reach the most vulnerable people will fighting still continues to take place under the smoke of quote unquote peace negotiations. a large scale police operation is underway across europe, targeting the italian mafia group, the n cangator, german police of arisen dozens of suspects and rated homes across the country. the
12:19 pm
suspects are accused of drug smuggling, money laundering and fraud. similar operations being carried out in belgium, france, italy, portugal and spain. as part of a european investigation of the mafia group, the unfun gaeta is italy's most powerful and wealthy mafia. it's suspected of controlling a bulk of cocaine flowing into europe. w's. lucy, a shows as just come from a press conference at the belgian public prosecutor's office. so what more have you found out? yeah, hey ben. say we are getting a clear idea of this gale of this operation today. so they have just said that there have been a $150.00 searches in 8 countries all over europe and an ard. so we get a clear idea of the number of suspected people that have been taken into custody. i just her got a fresh number from europa that has, that has been coordinating this in europe and said that they have been taken into
12:20 pm
custody. a 132 people all over europe that are members of note and guitar and an odd. so the scale of the operation gets clearer, as i said, and they have been are roughly a 2 and a half 1000 police men being involved in this. how important is this operation in the fight against organized crime in europe? yeah, they're the bad and prosecutor has said that this is undoubtedly a run of the largest ever operation against the end bandito. and as i have already mentioned, the numbers and maybe to crack down again in germany, there has been a 1000 policeman and taking part in the operation today. and in italy, the prosecutor just said there has been 1500 policeman and involved. so there you are, the, you see there, this is a really a sizable operation, but about as are to interesting in this regard,

as euro poll just stated. and it was not only in the european union that they have been doing reads, but also in 3rd countries such as brazil and panama. well, so those more about the challenges that law enforcement agencies face in the fight against organized crime. i believe cross border operations like this aren't easy. i made use of the occasion of being here and ask her, did i ask von, a police officer of the federal police in belgium and ask him exactly their question. and he told me that obviously the problem is that they do run or hide their activities by then another problem is that crime does not stop at the border . and as i just mentioned, they also looked into a, panama and brazil, and therefore it's been raids. but that is exactly the problem that the prosecutors here or policeman here often face because it's very difficult to work internationally. honor weighed scale. so this is one of the problems. and then you
12:22 pm
