hey, you know we've moved on from just lots of money and incurring lots of dad for dom reasons to printing loss of money and incurring lots of debt for extraordinarily dom reason. the i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians, including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. it was a mistake. and i, for my sincere apology for us admit it's drone strike in kabul last month, right before the military pull out killed and 10 civilians including 7 children. power took 3 weeks for washington to acknowledge what it now calls a horrible mistake. after initially claiming a terrorist had been killed, we speak to the relatives or the victim in a special project. it's called unheard voice. and this is not
3:01 am
a mistake of america. this is a crime. 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. and russia parliamentary election and tuesday to holding stations are now open all across the country in this 3 day about ah, it is just off the 10 am on a very sunny saturday here in moscow. welcome to the program here. the new team has been loading up your top stories for this. our united states has not acknowledged that last month. drones try and gotten us don killed 10 civilians including 7 kids on not one terrorist and washington had initially claim the stripe was necessary to prevent an imminent attack on cobbled airport in the final days before the military withdrawal. i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians,
3:02 am
including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. moreover, we now assessed that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with ices cake or were a direct rep to us forces. there was a mistake and i offer my sincere apology. i here we can show you the aftermath of about strike in a residential area of cobble about 3 kilometers from the airport. and it was a secondary blast, which is now believe 3, and caused by a propane tank in the driveway of us military has so far declined to say whether or not there will be any disciplinary action. oh oh. busy busy the me
3:03 am
i senior correspondent morale gas d. f, as in campbell, he has the latest on this get had been evidence to many and many people that something had gone terribly wrong with this strike you to this was weeks ago, weeks ago because people saw the scene in the immediate aftermath of the explosion . if they had been a car, bob laden with explosives, that many people speculate that the exposure, the devastation would have been much greater. it was. and we also saw that the pictures of the grid, 3 images of the kids, 7 of them killed during the strike. now the united states maintained that the intelligence behind loose was solid. they claim that they track this vehicle from a presumed isis compound, isis, k. compound, near capital, all the way to this residential district, just 3 kilometers away from capital international airport. where, of course,
3:04 am
at the time of frantic evacuation was due on the way very frantic and with people's nerves freight because everybody back then feared that there would be another terror attack. and the united states says that they surveilled this vehicle as it arrived in this residential neighborhood. they allegedly allegedly, according to witnesses, must have seen all the kids around the car as well as the, the owner of the man. they believe to be a nice the suspects carrying containers which turned out to be empty water containers to and from his car and what we had heard and up until now is a lot of mumbling and diversion on behalf of the state department, the pentagon, who were ost grilled by senators and congressmen alike about this as striking about the overwhelming evidence that it had gone again terribly wrong. make no mistake. no military on the face of the earth works harder to avoid civilian casualties than
3:05 am
united states military. and nobody wants to see innocent life taken as the secretary says, in this statement we, we apologize and we will endeavor to learn from this horrible mistake. and to that end, he has directed a thorough review of the investigation just completed by us central command. what is highly unusual about the submission is that it came so fast because the united states is well known for dragging these things as in, in iraq, in the syria. we have seen incidents of as shrikes, allegedly going wrong. but then the united states taking a year perhaps longer e for tools to admit to in their strike, cause in collateral damage killing civilians. usually their investigations a very drags out and there is at the end of it, no disciplinary measures. and despite this incident, being
3:06 am
a tremendous blunder from a tactical perspective, as well as from a public relations perspective, the united states says that new disciplinary measures will be taken as of right now . now, what is the reason that the human rights agencies, for example, believe that the submission came through quickly is because of the huge both political ad, public pressure on the united states. to admit to it. it should be noted that the us military was only forced to admit its failure in the strike because of the current global scrutiny on afghanistan. many similar strikes in syria, iraq and somalia have happened to out of the spotlights and the u. s. continues to ny responsibility, while devastated families suffer in silence. while they have said that they're sorry, they have also offered compensation to the families of the victims or presumably the family. because all the civilians killed and they don't like what parts of one
3:07 am
family. but we have also heard from the united states the these strides will go on, they will try to learn the lessons, to quote them of this terrible tragedy. but they also said, please don't take this as, as, as aside the bud diminish ability to strike it. isis target's guy. this done america's last driven strike of the guy who came just days after the terrible terror attack. it's capital airport at the north gate, which came the lives of 13 american troops as well as more than a 100 civilian. but again, this is odd likely to just sort of down the flames of political criticism aimed at the by the ministration and the state department for what many he has a fiasco is a humiliating and key author k arctic and to americans presence. and i've got to stop after 20 years of war. the youngest victims of that august 29th strike and
3:08 am
carnival what 2 girls both aged 2 at the man who was talking to turn out to be an aide walker. us forces apparent, he thought he was loading bombs into a truck, but those forms actually were empty. water bottles, brother was among the greeting. family members who share their stories with us in our special project. it's called unheard. voices saw the sandals belong to milly. she was very close to me. i looked her so much. she always told me to buy ice cream. u. s. 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
3:09 am
my name is maddie. i'm the head of the family that has lost 10 of its members. it was around 430 pm, i left for the markets 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 later told me that she saw a small aircraft, a drone, moving around in a circle which then fired and metal about hitch or home. i turned to look, there was distant 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 and 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
3:10 am
daughter, who was student to get married, also lost her life. another relative was also here, a guest. she was killed to, oh, i my love cosmetics. she likes painting her nails. she like dolls very much. the main cause of the incident was the american president planning this attack without any evidence and destroying our family was a catastrophe. ringback ah, the president is made clear to the commanders that they should stop and nothing to make isis pay for the death of those american service members at the cobbler airport. they say, isis k lived in this house in this house, were these children members of ices, a stupid thought without any proof,
3:11 am
without any investigation, they attacked us and killed our children, and we will never forgive them. ah, our entire families in shock, its being so painful for us mentally. we are not in a stable condition. the women are dead silent. they don't speak. we left our devastated homes and now live in my sister's place. it's so painful to visit it because we could see your children dying there, that people accusing us of having contact with this law, mac state, the americans who bombed our family, saying we'd been preparing an attack on them. their complete and utter liars, ah. ringback ringback ah
3:12 am
ah, after the incident, noah ortiz came here to investigate. nobody asked us what happened to your new one help? no one came here to morally support us. this is not a mistake of america, this is a crime. we've lost their children. the count returned to us, so at least or owner should be restored by us for investigation into the incident. we are the international community to investigate this incident. ah . busy i'm happy to, the americans have left afghanistan. they came because of their own goals and humiliated my country. america is not achieved anything in afghanistan, america has failed in afghanistan. and in his made people miserable
3:13 am
when it was only just a few days ago at the pentagon spokesman john kirby was maintaining the line that the drones stripe was a vital counter terror measure. i'm not able to confirm the identities of isis individuals that were targeted in those strikes. the strike was taken to prevent an eminent attack on the airport. a former pentagon security analyst on the x, the intelligence officer, gave us their views on the us apology. and what they call the underlying problems that are now revealed. it is a little unusual for them to admit to a mistake. and they used to be bombings all the time in syria and northern iraq. they hardly ever admitted to it. the kind of gun really had no choice but to look into it. so the general takes responsibility and they're going to offer compensation that doesn't bring back the lives of these children and the adults who are killed. and it also showed they didn't have good intelligence. and it really
3:14 am
throws into question the over the horizon concept that kind of gun says it now has and will continue to watch f can a stand for any potential terrorist attacks out of isis or, or al qaeda. it clearly shows that this over the horizon approach is inadequate. it makes more terrors, it kills by alienating entire populations who say all the united states is doing is murdering innocence. we have a person who's not properly trained, looking at the screen under great pressure from his commander in chief to be seen as striking somebody. and he's looking at something that he doesn't understand or she doesn't understand and to try to make a decision that yes, this could be a threat and then result refer missile. we do a building, a car had nothing to do with isis. united states should not be employed and weapons . ap hazard lee in
3:15 am
a manner which ends up killing thousands of innocent civilians. remember these last 10 or just the final exclamation on a program is killed thousands of innocence the same way this happened with bad intelligence. bad information and political pressure to be seen as doing something for the past the hour here on the russian capital authorities in southern texas to ban drones from flying near the border. it's after dramatic footage showed thousands of migrants crowded under a bridge. now the authorities to set to move was to, well, the cover issues of security, although you will learn otherwise not without correspondence. are teaser caleb often the my administration has been focusing on all the lack of catching over the afghan pull out. but meanwhile, things that the us mexico border are getting worse. shocking footage now shows more than $10000.00 migrants packed under a single bridge in texas. ah,
3:16 am
ah, $10503.00 illegal aliens or under this bridge tonight, because joe biden made a political decision to cancel deportation flights to haiti. the border patrol is over capacity. it's indefensible. it's inhuman and it was entirely caused by bite and, and harris hash tag biden border crisis. so we now have the federal aviation administration saying that no drones may fly over the area. they say it's about security concerns, but media says it's about restricting their ability to show the world what's actually happening. after exposing the massive explosion in
3:17 am
a legal border crossings in the last 24 hours with their overhead drone, the federal aviation administration steps into ban fox news from flying widens. white house has been called out before for restricting the media is access to migrant facilities. concerned about the inflow have been rising ever since he took office. now the texas governor has called out by saying that he won't allow his state to be overrun and that the president is doing nothing as things get worse. it is the federal government's job to secure our border, but the bottom ministration has failed to do his job. this government has not forgotten about the migrants, but they hope that the public has forgotten. the government is up to something. everything it's happening on the border happens for a reason, and they never explain to us what that reason is. and i'll tell you very briefly. it's so they can bring in lots and lots of people from foreign countries, turn them into american citizens, make them into democratic party voters,
3:18 am
and then in the future, never lose and other national election. that's what this border is about. is entrenching democrats in permanent power and that's why they don't explain it. and that's why they're willing to let people go along thinking it's some kind of failure or fiasco or incompetence. but it's not. i fail to see how national security could be impinged by a national television network showing pictures from a great distance of thousands of illegal immigrants across the border in texas. there is no national security concern for it, but there is certainly a security concern for the bite ministrations political future. because the more american people see that picture, the more appall they're going to get in the more they're going to demand changes in the policy at the border. this is political security, not national security. many people across america are looking at the migrant in flown, looking at the pact facilities and looking with outrage at the white house. so that appears they are doing nothing about it. well, except telling people not just filming that is tailored often are
3:19 am
t new york. it is a 2 of russia's parliamentary election and paulding stations are now open all across the country's vast 11 times owns and throughout the 3 days of voting here, we're not going to national. we are continuing our special coverage. the so a total of 14 parties are running for seats in the state duma. and throughout the week we've been reviewing each of them on what they stand for. so for now, let's have a look at a few more of the contenders 1st. so if you have the liberal pro business yup, which means apple. it's been around for almost 3 decades. but as popularity has waned over the years, and the best results was in 1909 when it took almost 6 percent of the vote. there
3:20 am
was not one any seats in parliament since 2003. moving on to another one. we now have the communist party of the russian federation. 76 year old again is going off, is the leader that he's been while since the parties creation. he's been the leader in 1993. the k p r f promotes what is called a modernized version of socialism. it wants to nationalized natural resources and agriculture while providing more support for small businesses. in the past 4 elections, it's finished. second, to united russia. well, this time around russia has invited election absorbers from dozens of countries from all around the world who are, are visiting the polling stations across russia's 11 time zones ortiz. i knew harvey has more on that. it was a continuation of coverage of the 2021 state duma election. whole international observers dropped in on polling stations across the country. despite the numbers being restricted because of coven,
3:21 am
250 members were present this year. they represent more than 50 different countries and 10 different international organizations. and one of the observers shed with is what they'd seen from the medical security condition, but also like to do so to make the vote transparent. energy to me, i really appreciate is there are so many measures and so many conditions. the 1st time we don't have any italy, helpful additions or electro varies from country to country. how does the process work in russia? $450.00 and pace with $225.00 electoral districts chosen to the state duma for a 5 year term. half of them elected by majority voting based on one m. p per constituency. the remaining 225, made up my apologies, which have all the 5 percent representation in parliament. aside from those traditional polling stations, russian citizens are also able to cast their votes on line. moscow low, more than a 1000000 people have done just that on the 1st day of voting with worn out on how
3:22 am
online voting works and how secure the system is to meet the pac voting is an essential part of any self respecting democracy. but the way people are voting is changing. the old fashioned ballot in a box is steadily being replaced, or at least complemented by online voting and russia. electronic ballads have been around for, for elections already. and the upcoming legislative vote instead of the largest share of online voters of any russian election so far. the online system, however, is still relatively new, so it's only being rolled out in several regions. but some 2000000 people have already registered for the electronic vote, including an astronaut aboard the i assess and an arctic explore. but as with anything new, especially electronic issues of accessible rudy, voters, security, safety, and reliability are a priority. so how exactly does the online voting system work?
3:23 am
first of all, it's easy to use to register. all people need to do is go to their government service account request access to the vote. entered s m s confirmation code. and well, that's it. on the day of the vote, they just go to the voting website, log in to the candidate and submit their ballot. the process can be done from anywhere in the world with an internet connection, no pulling station needed, just a smartphone or a computer. for security the system as a whole lot more complicated. upon voting, the ballot is encrypted, void of any information about the voter and send to a distributed block chain network for storage and tally for one to vote closes while the vote is in the system. it is virtually impossible to alter since the vote exists on several nodes simultaneously, which automatically check between themselves to see that the data is consistent. if anything is altered on one node, it is automatically disregarded and information from the other identical nodes is used instead. finding out the result of the vote before the election ends is also
3:24 am
impossible. the whole thing is protected by 2 keys, one open key, encrypt all the balance, and the other, which can decipher them, is split into segments that are distributed among the participants of the electoral process. when voting ends and these fragments are combined, the system decrypts, the balance then gives a final result of devote individual votes at this point cannot be decrypted. so it is impossible to track how each individual voted with each successful election more and more russians are choosing to vote from the comfort of their mobile devices. and pro knows if the system proves safe anonymous. and most importantly, reliable, it could become the primary voting method of choice. in the very near future that's election day. the online voting system is up and running and the servers are ready to accept all the encrypted balance. so let's look don't blank, this should be really fast.
3:25 am
so that's all there is to it. now the encrypted ballot is sent to the server where it will be stored safely until the polls close. and no one will be able to take a peek at it because the only way to see what is actually on the ballot is to decrypt it. and to do that, you need the special key. and the decipher key has already been split into 8 pieces and handed out through the participants of the election process. sort of like horror crux as in harry potter. so now let's, let's to do is wait until monday, when the voting is finished and the 8 pieces of the key are reassembled to finally reveal the final result of the vote. political analyst at the, in the me internet media project, dmitri babich totally through the importance of this particular election on the
3:26 am
west, stands on it. a lot of voters already decided to do it electronically. i'm not sure that the pen gaming was the decision factor, but it was gone over the fact us to already in law school and in some other fetus. a lot of people voted via electronic devices and participation. so you will be higher than in 2016 when we had the last election. presidential elections coming up and that's a different matter altogether. but in 2024, 24. does this have any knock on effect depending on the result of this as to how things will, will go in russia, building up other lakers traditionally and duly elections for waco rehearsal for the presidential election in russia? definitely, we're going to see new faces. the big question is, i would like to see new partners and how well that russia is going to do. all right, if people are getting more interested in politics, i mean, i read the western press that the selection is so dial, so an interesting but there are conference. so logic,
3:27 am
most of all in the western media in russian media, new name, some mentioned somehow and when i see these new names in their western media, i just don't know how these people can put their act together. it's not an interesting election. and then while right can vote young people, or there are interesting people, interesting kinds of them. how can they said there should be dope? for me it's not an action. so he's definitely taking an interest in this election is the bottom and actively threatened to not recognize the result of the election if it's a big if they find evidence of fraud. it's an unusual moved to say, this is the punishment. we're not sure if there's been a crime yet. what, what do you make of that? well, they just one. they are people to when they remain candidate only is not running. so they registered is bank. you know, either we get evolution in russia or we're not interested and that's are all nature . first is bad for russia because we need gradual change. we don't need religions
3:28 am
2nd, it's bad for the west because it and tegan, isis, russia, and also it tries to achieve result. it cannot achieve that won't be renewed. and russia, this issue now about the nevada, the apple. some people have called it this, this was tactical, voting up, which google and apple have allowed access to, which is forbidden that has not been resolved that, that issue. but some people are saying that that was interference. what is your feeling on that? but imagine if in the united states, russian companies had new vice, that would allow voters in the united states to find out how russia would like them to vote. that will be a huge scandal. you know, we all remember russian gauge was and i think it was a fortune for american viewers for at least 2 and a half years until april, 2020. when basically mr. miller, mr. miller,
3:29 am
acknowledge that there was no confusion. but we have evidence of western total support from the radical position in russia. you're just have to read the newspapers in the west, not in russia, the ah, transparency for the powerful premises and the bell this bit about privacy. what people care about is power tuning and sons is become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on and a huge struggle with the government's corporations who want to keep information secret and others who the democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people
3:30 am
have a writing, everything to do, watch sons helped to shift the conversation around transparency and see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the largest and most powerful employer in such a situation. it's remarkable. the match kaiser this is the kaiser report in paris. hey, you know we've moved on from just printing loss of money and incurring lots of dead for dom reasons. to printing loss of money and incurring lots of debt for extraordinarily dom.
