days before the leaders of on media. and as about john were due to meet in brussels for you, mediated peace talks your turkeys president, richard, tell you 31 says that russia has agreed to extend the black sea green deal, but the kremlin hasn't confirmed his claim. the deal brokered by turkey and the un has allowed ships to carry ukrainian food export from black seaports since last summer. it is due to expire. on monday, the bellows says, the fighters from the russian wagner mercenary group, have arrived in the country and our training local forces. the bel, who's defense ministry, has released a video purporting to show wagner fighters working as weapons instructors at a military camp near the capital mints. there's been much speculation about the location of wagner troops and their future since their short lived mutiny last

month. wagner is leader, you have danny precaution, reportedly agreed to move his forces to builders as part of a deal to end the result. he's whereabouts remain unclear. for more on this, i'd like to welcome frank language, a former british military intelligence officer. he joins us now from oxford in the united kingdom. frank, are you convinced by the video from forwarding to show wagner fighters in bell, or is, and if they are there, how concerned should ukraine be? well, good morning, michael. yes, these videos look look reasonably genuine. and it is a fair assumption that these soldiers on medicine rays are conducting training of belarus and forces, but enough in high numbers. the best analysis here suggests so what's happening is that volume is applicant contingent which they call the voc, not africa, cool. let me to note is rotating in and out of bella risk for training purposes.

it's very important for the full days for this most of the company that they retain their inputs in africa and also for russian strategic purposes. i don't think they need to be disaggregated from the consent to be more considerably stronger presence of cognitive in south of ukraine, which seems not to be be folded of being folded into russian forces. you're going to be concerned about this, the mouse to a training mission beller. this will not be making an effort on ukraine militarily . any time in the near future, ukraine's are present. and so lensky has one that russia is throwing all its resources into stopping, keeps counter offensive. what's your assessment of how that counter offensive is going right now? is a comment commentary tests not done a great favor for ukraine over the last 3 months and setting expectations. but

steve training themselves did not have as i b 2 k, as in spoken to military intelligence officials twice over the last 3 months. so no point that they suggest this is going to be one bound on, we are free, they are not going to be in crimea by christmas. so what is happening is that the offense that is going slowly, most likely, as i say, and this is quite right, the next spect it. but this is what this, the nature of this operation now is exactly what was expected. this will be a series of operations to breach these extremely strong, less than defensive. what's happening now is you credit is a probing most defensive and looking for an opportune place to breach. it doesn't seem yet that they have found, or the data attempted a breach because we've not seen the main force of ukrainians yet deployed. i think everyone needs to understand this is the reality of war. this is going to take not months, but yes, to break down russian defences and establish a position whether your credit is can negotiate for some form of the equipment that

then satisfactory peace settlement with the very early stages of that process now. and as far as it can be said, it has not, this is, this is going, as well as can be expected in the circumstances. this is a series of operations of bicycles. it's going to take a long time and people need to understand the printers. you're surely aware us, provided the cluster munitions, have now arrived in ukraine. how much of a military advantage could they provide to advancing ukrainian troops? a michael or 2 ways? first of all, with custom, munitions, you get a far higher efficiency based on your all teller, which means what the problem likely to achieve a hit on. in this case, russian defense is trenches and so forth. it must be remembered by the way. they're all going to be old, most no civilians of these areas that will be very little. it will be probably be no collect real time. it's the kinds of fee and we cancelled about this again, some people. so they'll offer the advantage that will mean that, that the expenditure of october is likely to reduce there's

a 2nd less often ref referred to advantage here. and this is running so especially say in the west on a new crane. they're all out stock. so these custom munitions in the united states and not will ease the pressure on our munition supply into the medium to as the industrial weights of america. europe on a day to some extent, some other parts of the world swing into producing author the drugs and the millions that it will be required over this extremely long operation. michael and we will have to end it there. that is a frank language, a former military intelligence officer from oxford. many thanks you sir. thank you . production on major us film and television sets his ground to a halt amid the bigot striked to hit the entertainment industry and decades. actors have joined screen riders on picket lines in front of hollywood studios, demanding better pay, and protection from the artificial intelligence. shutting

down a multi $1000000000.00 industry, hollywood stars have now joined screen writers, triggering the 1st industry wide walk out in 63 years. the what is the siding strike and this is going to impact everybody. and if we don't take control of this situation from these reading, beg, lavinia, we're going to be at and spread the livelihood outside. major studios and natalie and new york actors are demanding better compensation when it comes to royalties from streaming platforms. the union, which represents 760000 actors and entertainers says the takeover streaming

platform has flashed their earnings or the another sticking point in negotiations has been the use of a i. striking actors say they're fighting any move to allow studios to own, to digital scans and background performers for an unlimited period of time. one of the things they spoke about was that they were going to pay a back or an actor for one day work. and then use their likeness in perpetuity like forever without paying them. and i'm like, that is not okay. the writers strike had already the structed most tv production. now with actors joining, it could also help work on big budget movies. so know actors, new writers with hollywood to do we put that question to entertainment journalist
