76th anniversary of victory. the defeat of the 3rd reich came at an enormous cost for the soviet union almost

$27000000.00 soviet citizens both civilians and soldiers lost their lives in the eastern front of world war 2 that 4 year conflict with nazi germany is known to russians as the great patriotic war and for the occasion archie has brought to life archival footage of some of the soviet troops who made that victory possible.

some hours ago russian troops and military vehicles paraded through moscow's red square for the capital's annual military parade it was the biggest of dozens of possessions which took place across russia to celebrate the defeat of nazi germany so taylor and rory sushi were our eyes and ears for the event. today at this fee day there will be no dignitaries in attendance so the kremlin basically wanted to say that we would like to err on the side of caution so although we're going to have the big guns the big jets the big tanks and all the different regiments and battalions marching across red square it will be a slightly smaller audience for this year's edition of lot of putin flanked by

a number of veterans as well who are attending today. this is such.

a sort of fantastic oh my goodness me on i think i'm 90 years old playing with my choice all over again absolutely remarkable display of russian aerospace technology here right above rose square. that is to reach. out to my friend. we come to the final part of the bet that everyone loves the basic problem. but the trail. black that the 86 feet should also take on the night made it today is a very powerful tales collective remembrance this country stretching i thought tyneside

the 146000000 sixes that was russia comes to get us one and it reminds itself of how much it owes those $27000000.00 he taught it to this part of southwest he shot at the same time lost being a very showy public national holiday it was also in. tensity huston all of that every single russian dive into his family archive and his photo album and think of his ancestors and what role they play oh i know for myself on this day more than most i think of my grandmother. she was just 15 years old when she lied about her age and she signed up to fight and she was in the immediate thoughts the independent women's that was the fust female polish infantry unit in the red army that's something on the eve of the future for about the fact that decades of to she stepped up to see young child really to fight i'm standing here to generations later quite yet she as a symbol of the future that she won for me i would have loved to hear me talking

about the millions of heroes like us who were courageous that beyond belief and who still things that belief that they could know who he is in years have cost much fewer and fewer generations to the light but still to this day we live in a city by the most so that inversion goes. no one is forgotten nothing is forgotten. soviet soldiers stormed berlin in late april 1905 and by may 2nd the red flag was raised over the rice talk last nazi germany formally capitulated a week later and veterans who took part in the operation still have vivid memories of those days. now the war was won over 3 quarters of a century ago but some of the veterans are still performing feats that might make you think that they're still in the very prime of their life.

year due to the coronavirus pandemic for months relatives have been uploading photos of themselves with their relatives and to mark the 76th anniversary of the great patriotic war the images are being broadcast across t.v. and social media channels it's hoped a physical event can take place on june 24th covert restrictions permitting. remembering more on this edition of the program we explain why russians have an aversion to war contrary to what is said in the west and at the recent g 7 foreign

ministers meeting russia was declared reckless and expressed it was really reckless and aggressive. so what males have tended to do and still do is is we tend to we certainly have empathy and all of that but we also tend to do nurture through aggression so we create things like soccer and football and you know all of the various hundreds of games that involve aggression now women are aggressive and can play those games no doubt very well but when you go back to why they were created those games were created for males to nurture other males to aggression to teach them how to be empathic few aggression.

welcome back to the program jerusalem has seen fresh clashes between israeli security forces and palestinians with 14 people injured according to the palestinian red cross have flared up over possible evictions of palestinians from land claimed by jewish settlers while israel says the seizures are necessary for security here are some of the scenes in jerusalem on sunday. to. her. this is just downtown jerusalem and it looks more like a war zone that's happened if broken bottles were rolled over the places the shops

are closed because the situation has become quite dangerous now this is the consecutive night that there has been violence here in jerusalem we're also witnessing a minute. and at the same time we haven't seen this kind of protests trying to sort of all years but you certainly all brick missing is the place and a mass as or equal to come to the city at the same time the palestinian president mahmoud abbas has indefinitely postponed elections blaming israelis were still celebrating all commemorating. ramadan and all of those who have contributed to this take in violence israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that his security forces will be on the streets until such time that this minority like holds youngsters that are provoking the situation i actually done what now there has been am going to insist very forward and backwards step he has been about whomp and doesn't that have been taken out of the east into various police and. so all

eyes now on * tomorrow which will see jerusalem day and annual commemoration rate young jewish youths march to the streets with the israeli flags that no doubt will be a provocation and at the same time we've seen bracing to hear this decision as to be a picture unsettling loss asan here in the arab in may. that has been postponed for now because of concerns i disapprove of. about the growing tensions here. meanwhile in this footage you can see israel's iron dome defense system intercepting what was said to be 2 rockets that came from gaza on sunday night israel also says in sydney are the balloons have been launched from gaza sparking fires in the country for several days straight richard becker co-ordinator of the antiwar answer coalition says recent events marked the largest flare up in tensions between the 2 sides in recent years netanyahu is hoping that

somehow repression we're going to have our problems facing corruption charges and so forth and somehow get him back. but there's something much bigger was going on here well i think i understand and this is where the record was postponed and we are now facing. the possibility of a new mass rebellion so we're seeing something we haven't seen in a long time and it's really is a reaction to the increasing and intensified russian and repression of palestinians . world press freedom day was marked this week by u.s. authorities who mainly focused on journalists' rights in other countries the united states itself has witnessed of more than 400 assaults on journalists over the past year there were also 139 arrests and over 100 cases of reporter's equipment being

damaged and the 2021 tracker shows more and more incidents every day don of takes a closer look at press freedom in america. if there's one thing entrenched in the d.n.a. of us democracy that would be putting america on the pedestal of righteousness at every given opportunity like here we're seeing every day. the work that journalists are doing around the world in increasingly difficult and challenging conditions nothing is more fundamental to the good functioning of our democracies they advocate they seek safety they celebrate the u.s. knows how to throw one hell of a party for a truth teller look no further than julian a son he's published so many u.s. secrets america's justice department is captivated by the man they just won't take no for an answer if extradited asunder will be celebrating his accomplishments like

the guantanamo bay files or the iraq war logs for up to 175 years likely in a maximum security prison the ruling in his case leaves open the possibility for the u.s. governments to pursue journalists and publishers around the world if their reports and noise the washington establishment that is santa remains in prison underlines the grievous threat to unfettered journalese that these serious legislation poses and of course there's no bigger a custodian of journalists safety than the modern day america it is incumbent on all of us to counter these threats to a free and independent media including physical risk and arbitrary detention for one saudi journalist physical risk and arbitrary detention escalated into horrible suffering and death in a matter of minutes jamal khashoggi fell out of favor with the saudi royal family

and in 2018 was killed inside their consulate in istanbul reports suggest he was tortured before meeting his death beheaded and dismembered. as his killers go to way on private jets the u.s. could not stand idle in the face of such an atrocity that's one reason we announced in response to the brutal murder of jamal khashoggi the shoji bam to help deter threatening behavior against the media i beg your pardon all this. is is a visa restriction policy that doesn't even target the saudi crown prince despite the cia itself saying he personally ordered the hit we held accountable all the people in that organization but not the crown prince because we have never that i'm aware of when we have an alliance with a country gone to the acting head of state and punished that person and ostracized him and a cherry on top of this towering pile of hobo crissy is this promise of joe biden

to show he was in fact murdered and dismembered and i believe in the order of the crown prince and i would make it very clear we were not going to interact to sell war weapons to them we were going to in fact make them pay the price and make it and in fact the pariah that they are the ban is cosmetic. we know or the murder and then the person who do are there murders not going to be eligible it remains untouched because washington doesn't want to disrupt that relationship as politicians love to float amid the smoke of virtue and mirrors of morality but then things come into sharp focus and we see just how little integrity there is left for more i can i can be from moscow victory day celebrations check out our website r.t. dot com i'll be back with more in just about half an hour so do stay tuned.
