the name of his guineas in a sheriff would probably be less familiar to those abroad than home. here in russia though, you can, it's in a chef occupied a very high ranking post as the head of the russian emergencies ministry post applied for 3 years since 2018. what we know is that the head of the ministry was attending training exercises in the city of neural skin. russia's north designed to prevent emergency situations in russia's arctic territory. we also know that there was a large group of press enter tenants, including camera operators that were filming a training video for the emergency ministries. and we know that at $1.00 of these camera operators approached the got too close to the edge. all of this cliff and actually fell forward. which point the had to be motion ministries, mr. chef lunch thought tried to save the put his life. stop him from falling and

tragically fell to his death himself. they worked both. both the men were quickly lifted to the hospital. sadly, though they couldn't be saved and they died. the medics were powerless to do anything in the world of witnesses at the scene, one of which the scene as well was an art spanish correspondent who called in and told us what exactly happened to defeat and went to johnson for him. so we are now in the real, we've come here is a part of the report was group to cover the emergence, this minister drills here and in neighboring to see that we were with mr. is any all the time through all, most of the drills today. mr. was in and she was observing exercises focusing on the vacation from the burning hospital. 14 methods of recreation were demonstrated at the saying he was him on the spectators all the time and not directly participating. so it's very hard to believe what's happened. cool, and according to the latest information, he was on the edge of

a cliff. with his cameraman, the slipped fell off the cliff. but he's an inch of jumped after him and tried to save him. but unfortunately, we hit the wrong well. tributes. i've been pouring in across media, social media to ministers in his chef. he did occupy also number of posts in the security section, including the deputy director of the f s p. and part of the president putin security detail. his aid become effectively from 2006 to around 2015. the president has already expressed his condolences to ministers in a chef. and many people are saying that he lost his life doing what he was trained to do. what he loved doing and doing effectively what he did best to mrs in a chef leaves behind the wife, a son, grandson, and 2 granddaughters. his replacement, of course, will be announced in due course, was this period of morning for that invited ministries over

there was a frosty reception for joe biden, this week out, a new jersey time ravaged by the recent hurricane. ida, a group of locals, voice their anger over the gun, us down, pull out with some even branding the american president, a tyrant the the lead. c c yeah, not the fury that was very visible there over the war and it's gonna stand. it's being felt, sol, the more acutely in the real up to a grim anniversary for the united states. almost 20 years passed since the tragic events of 911 a day that shook the world and set the stage for the us war on terror to market. we've been taking a closer look at the devastating impact this subsequent 2 decades of conflict has

had on the lives of millions in our special project on heard voices. the will use all tools at our disposal status killed our children to united states was bringing people to watch a site. it was a pointless exercise. we start by looking at the impact of one recent event, so call defensive or a strike conducted by the u. s. in cabal, at the end of august, just before the withdrawal deadline, we heard from fathers who lost their children in that rate. the youngest was a toddler, aged to thought the sandals belong to melinda. she was very close to me. i looked her so much. she always told me to buy ice cream with us military forces conducted and unmanned over the horizon airstrike on a vehicle known to be an imminent isis k threat. on the morning of the bombing,

she came and kissed me and said, good morning, father. it was her last meeting. i will never see her again. the my name is maddie. i'm the head of the family that has lost 10 of its members, and it was around 4 30 pm. i left for the market and on the way i met my elder brother who was driving back home. we talked a little, then he left to go home and i crossed the road to go to the other side. i just crossed the road and i heard an explosion. my daughter lead her to me that she saw a small aircraft a dro, moving around in a circle, which then fired a missile about hitch or home. and i turned to look there was dust and smoke lightning, it was a terrible scene. my wife was shutting out her high was on fire. ah

. busy there were parts of children's bodies, it was so bloody increase and i went into my home on fun, my brother and a nephew. they were critically injured but still alive and breathing. they later died in hospital. my brother and 9 others were killed in this horrific attack. my brother's daughter, who was student to get married, also lost her life. another relative was also here, a guest. she was killed to, oh, i, as bob was, maya loves cosmetic. she likes painting her nails for she like dolls very much. the main cause of the incident was the american president, planning this attack without any evidence and destroying family was a catastrophe. ringback ringback ah,

the president has made clear commanders that they should stop and nothing to make isis pay for the death of those american service members at the cobble airport. isis k. lived in this house, in this house with these children, members of isis. stupid thought without any proof, without any investigation, they attacked us and killed our children, and we will never forgive them. ah, our entire families in short, it's being so painful for us mentally. we are not in a stable condition. the women are dead silent. they don't speak tomorrow, we left our devastated home and now live in my sister's place. it's so painful to visit. it's because we could see your children dying there. the people accusing us

of having contact with islam. mac state, the americans who bombed her family, seeing we'd been preparing an attack on them. they're complete and utter lawyers. ah . ringback after the incident, no authority came here to investigate. nobody asked us what happened to your new one help. ready no one came here to morally support us. this is not a mistake of america, this is a crime. we've lost her children. the count returned to us. so what mister owner should be restored by us for investigation into the incident. we are the international community to investigate is incident. ah, make no mistake. no, no terry, on the face of the earth or harder to avoid civilian casualties than the united

states military. and nobody wants to see innocent life taking the americans have left us and they came because of their own goals and humiliated my country. america is not achieved. anything else going on? america has failed in afghanistan and in his made people miserable. oh, there really is a so bring report that we will be speaking with more people. both soldiers and civilians whose lives were changed forever by america's war and our continuing special coverage on heard voices throughout the week. not just days after the last u. s. military jet left afghanistan, the biden administration is asking congress for more than $6000000000.00 to

resettle thousands of african refugees, though that's an addition to the trillions already spent on the longest ever american war killer mocking reports. so how much cash is every american dish out for the war on terror? well, if you do the math for each individual in the united states, it comes out to about $16000.00. 64000 for a family, for your insurance. i know that cool. it is worth it. does it know horrible? it's too much. $600000.00 is a lot for everybody. not everybody could pay that. whereas a gone, is there any accountability? i feel they could do better. things with the money especially was going on with depend demik right now and the state wherein here at home i say take care here 1st and then you were about elsewhere. i mean, we got a lot of domestic issues here. i will give priority whether it's college funding or

how solutions, whatever they needed for a really terrible, terrible lot of people while thinking that they're going to fight for a country and this and that. but they lose their lives and bring up people home. now some might say that that is a small price to pay in order to keep us safe from terrorist attacks like on $911.00. but apparently there have been some other less than honorable motives who can milk this thing all the way to 2015. there's plenty to go around. the old military industrial complex is always hungry for cash and they've melted way past 2015. it is now 2021 and the usa unloaded at this point, roughly 6 trillion dollars. and that is a conservative estimate. now that's only the financial cost. let's go over the human cost of 20 years worth of violence and killing. but now it's over. coach biden blew his whistle and we're leaving the court. so who won was how we truly accomplished in 20 years of post $911.00 was millions of lives and trillions of

dollars later, who has one who has lost and at what price 20 years from now will to be reckoned with. the has societal costs. we have dentist done in iraq was low enough to us forces that gun. so as the us, they learned anything from decades of war. will we now get a peace dividend to pay for things like health care, education and infrastructure? like again, right after bringing the troops home, congress actually increased the military budget. biden's proposed pentagon budget was already a new record levels before the house armed services committee. reckless recommendation to add nearly $24000000000.00 higher than the peaks of the korean or vietnam was, or the recon built of the $980.00 is if we concerned about making america and the world safer, we should be investing more funds in addressing pandemic climate change and racial and economic injustice, not by un weapons. we don't need a price as we can't afford. after 20 years. trillions of dollars. nothing seems to have been learned by the united states and economy based on war keeps rolling ahead

. caleb bobbin r t new york just approaching a quarter of an hour into the program still ahead of french cement company is charged with crimes against humanity for paying millions of euro to the groups in syria. we've got the details of quite extraordinary case coming away after the break. ah . when i would show the wrong one, i'll just don't rule out the thing because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look so common ground in the

way the u. s. government funded is the issue of treasury bond and they pay the interest on those bonds by collecting taxes who owns most of those bonds. it's virtually all those bonds, the top 110th of one percent. so the government simply becomes a pastor mechanism for people to pay money from their pockets through something called taxes that are just a thickly that high the transmission mechanism of your money through the government, into those who own these bonds. the hello again, a gas explosion in an apartment block near moscow has claimed at least 2 lives and left 9 injured. the building in again school was partially destroyed and the blast

which happened on wednesday morning. the city was captured by a, by founder right after the explosion. you may just be able to make out there's a young girl believed to be aged to run 3 or 4 stranded precariously on the edge of an apartment with its walls low and people were urging her not to move. the child was later brought safely on. i rescuers reporting from the against our teeth, donal quarter. as you can see behind me, this is the tragic aftermath of the gas explosion that rocked against your moscow in the early hours of the morning. it looks as if you as if several apartments were literally ripped out of the building and windows of neighboring buildings have also been shattered. as a result of the blast, 2 people have been confirmed to be killed and it's looking like another 9 have been injured. 2 of which were children that the emergency services were actually able to

save from the rubble, as you can see behind me, they're still working on that. and there's also off camera, people cleaning up glass workers, cleaning up the rubble of what came off of the building after this terrible explosion for being evacuated from both the effected building and part of the neighboring building. as the authorities have said, that the latter is actually in danger of suffering serious damage if the former were to collapse upon it in the potential situations. front, his top cortez upheld charges against the cement company for funding terrorism. lafarge is accused of paying $13000000.00 euro to job a groups in syria to keep us operations running our t. charlotte duban sky, us history. jackie's ations was paid almost 13000000 years to a number of militant groups in syria during the conflict that, including to seize allocation state back 220132014. when the

fours made the payments are legible to try and keep it, some men company continuing to be able to operate in the country. now the phone is also accused of buying a tool from a middle man, which is proven would be in direct violation of you in ball goes now for as try to have some of the allegations against big walks with a lower court earlier. this is turning round and saying that allegations of crime against humanity could be thrown, not for profit talk court. the supreme court has now waded into this and decided that actually lose allegations can be put back on the table. this is what the court said in its judgement, in this case, the payment of several $1000000.00 to an organization which is actively criminal is enough to characterize the complicity. whether or not the party unquestionable is only doing so to see commercial activity. but case had been brought to the court's attention by former employees over the fall, and also had be backed by

n g o is white groups have well, couldn't be sufficient. a great win in the fight for corporate accountability for international crimes. well, far as can be prosecuted for complicity and crimes against humanity. so i can now be investigated for crimes against humanity is not food for the company. also free of charge is increasing the financing of terrorism, endangering the lives of individuals and of course, violating that you involve go notify for its purpose. has admitted that it said pe militants in syria during 2013 and during 2014. but it says it did that in a pre to try and help its employees for protecting them on the ground. we also know that several invest in executive school was also under investigation. as part

of why look into waterfalls is activities were in syria to really period in the process is continuing to cooperate with all that you to show investigations. i put the idea that the falls could now face these additional accusations is investigation of crimes that can bring. commodity would set a precedent. there is one thing to get because why do investigation is still going on? if it goes to trial, it will be the 1st time that a french company has been tried in fonts in this way. the love segment of the north stream to gas pipeline linking russia to germany was welded in the baltic sea on monday. it's been completed as well, just other time when europe is expecting a winter search in gas demand and big prices. peter oliver can tell us more about it 3 years in the making and not without a bumper to along the road. the final piece of the old stream to gas pipeline has

been welded into place. the final bit of pipe is be 200500 and 58th and $2011000000000.00. so once the tops are turned on, it will bring side berry and gas via the russian port of lucca. under the baltic sea right here to germany, the mayor of the si size town where the pipeline arrives in european w as a life. god says the energy project brings not only gas, but money and jobs as well. because i think the pipeline, the pipeline is very important for the town of lubin. we still benefits both during the construction and operating stages or our industrial port, which is a municipal court in which living has generated jobs. there was a result of the project in the long term operational phase, the time and leave me will receive a share of the business profit generated by the north stream to pipelines as well as jeff gates and other companies does one and 1500000 euros that will go to leave

management budget. it's not all being smooth sailing though. former us president donald trump wanted to sell europe more of america's liquefied natural gas problem . there though is it's more expensive than the piped russian variety. so he slept sanctions on the nord stream to project causing hold ups. so we're protecting germany, we're protecting france, we're protecting these countries. and numerous of the countries go out and make a pipeline deal with russia, where they're paying billions of dollars into the coffers of russian. germany is totally controlled by russia because they will getting from 60 to 70 percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline. in may, the current inhabitants of the white house lifted the sanctions on the node stream to company. that doesn't mean he's a fun. my, you know, to, to, has been known for some time. good friends can disagree and,

but by the time i became president, there was 90 percent completed and imposing sanctions did not seem to make any sense. ukraine is also worried that it could be used to coated out of the european gas trans that infrastructure. however, russia says switches the demand for its gas, the more roots it has to europe, the better moscow's always said, that nord stream to is in economic project and has nothing to do with politics. and perhaps that's why, but man of you been isn't too concerned about the effects. geo politics could have on the pipeline coming into his town. when i started home for the beginning, there are 5 gym and states involved in the construction of the north street. 2 projects in the states of assessed and endorse the project and some of them, even one court came over. i've always believed that this project could be implemented within the legal framework exists within the you in those days. i have

not been concerned that i could stop the project, european politics, federal politics, and even american politics are too far away from us. we just did our job, did our taxes and everything to make sure this project we came as successful as the 1st high fly when there was still 2 or 3 legal hurdles. overcome with regard to the gas market directed the commissioning and transport of the gas the time quite so that russia and the countries and companies involved result these issues and that we will start receiving the 1st rushing gothic pipelines before the end of 2021. with the pipeline connected up just behind me, certificate action and safety checks will take around 3 months to be completed after that while nor stream to will be able to pump as much as 55000000000 cubic meters of gas per year. here to germany, that's roughly enough to heat around 26000000 european homes feature all of a r t on the german baltic coast. the british prime minister

has admitted to breaking a key manifesto pledge by raising personal taxes to their highest level. in decades . we promise not to raise the rates of income tax, national insurance, or v a t. this is a tax guarantee, it will protect the income. so hardworking families across the next parliament, no conservative government, no conservative government to speak every once to raise taxes. and i will be honest with the high, except yes, i accept the break i manifest to commitment, which is not something which is not something i do likely, but a global pandemic within the wall. it follows of course, an 18 months spending bonanza. jew cobra, 1900, not seeing the u. k. national debt. spirals in the 1st year of pandemic, the government borrowed $300000000000.00 pounds, a large part of that was to fund the workers furlough scheme, or johnson called choose the tech psych,

a difficult but responsible decision needing to fix funded shortfall and health on social we're beginning the biggest catch up program in the history of the chess, the levy will share the cost as fairly, as possible between people and businesses. because we all benefit from a well supported and a chest and all businesses benefit from a healthy workforce. the shuttle work in pensions, secretary, jonathan reynolds, reacting to the prime minister, essentially saying the way the government try to frame this issue of, for example, people living longer and having healthier lives and insensitive way of dealing with what are very real issues for the elderly when it comes to that pensions to governments, cases of the for the data and the pandemic have produced a statistical aberration. i reject the presentation of this issue as a source of intergenerational tension or unfairness because we all have an interest

in ensuring that there's a decent state pension in the future. we would never present increase longevity as a problem. the pretends to the prime minister is only here because the panoramic is not going to wash. he's putting a sticking plaster over gaping wounds which his party inflicted. he made the comment on social care before the pandemic, and he said he would pay for it without raising taxes before the pandemic. now this is of course, the 2nd manifest pledge that the prime minister has broken within a day. the 2nd of those being an announcement whose res, national insurance contributions, which say the government that is promised not to do in the lead up to that election at the end of $29.00 teams. so the government, the chancellor, the treasury all with a balancing act to do to try to please if not all sectors of society as many as possible when it comes to the agenda, not just in the u. k. the so called global gender of help build back

a better point. and slogan the bar, as johnson repeated again, how much work he's done. another breaking news story to bring you here on our t this our we have knowledge to obtain 1st hun confirmation from russia, security service, the f s. b of a cia plot involving bella, bruce, ukrainian, intelligence, and 32 russian mercenaries. apparently the ultimate goal was to pit moscow against minutes to break it all done for less cross to l. e. f for frank earlier genuinely does sound like the plot of a spy thriller tick us through what happened once you've managed to find out you did a good afternoon. well, we'll have to begin with a big story that cnn is running at the moment. for some reason,

their journalists decided to dig deeper into this old story and out found from ukrainian security officials from members of the ukraine security service. that it was the c i a, that assisted in their secret operation which last year led to the detention of more than 30 russian citizens in bella. ruth, i'm going to explain that a bit later at. a the c, i a provided various kinds of assistance including sending cache to ukraine, explaining to them how these kind of things are done, providing technical assistance and so on and so forth. now, i just interviewed an operative that is working for the washing federal security service called the f s b. and he told me that the washing site possesses enough details to confirm that cnn report. moreover, according to the f s b c, i was entirely behind this whole operation and they weren't even informing.
