u. s. military contract as it needs to be crate of preparing provocations involving chemical components and the british prime minister approval ratings plummet to an historic low as the fall a grows of a revelation. so repeated violations of covert roles last year at the same time as the countries health workers lighting up to accuse him of exploitation the page. you know, they've done nothing to address the pay. there's been no way that i can be from the government to, to tackle tension within the black. ah, hello, they live from out internationally mosca welcome to a world news at 9 with me, kevin allen. first, the gas prices in europe continue to break records the now ran 6 times the amount in early summer. peter oliver brings us up to speed rack or breaking day when it
1:02 pm
comes to the price of gas in europe. that has topped $2000.00 per 1000 cubic meters of gas for the 1st time ever. it's come about after a gas bron, the russian energy giant didn't book any gas transit through poland on the human europe pipeline. in its most very basic sense, that meant no extra gas would be arriving in germany. now. gas from continues to live up to the contracts. it has with european nations like germany and others. but what it's not doing is sending any extra on to the market. what that means is there's an increased demand and well not the supply as i said. so that means the prices have gone right up. in fact, they've gone through the roof this month alone. prices have risen by 40 percent since the summer. they've gone up 300 percent in that they start to take a toll on energy companies and number of them deciding that this is just too rich
1:03 pm
for their blood. and they've had served while they fold it. they've had to file for bankruptcy, the latest to do that is neck and, and strong. here in germany they supplied power to some, 13000 homes across the country. they'll not be doing that anymore as they decided they just can't be part of this with the energy price. so high. now, i said that gas problem continues to live up to the contracts which it signed. however, that hasn't stopped european leaders from suggesting that russia is using energy is using gas supply in an attempt to try and exert political influence over some countries in europe. rogers used energy as a tool for political influence, the for instance, in moldova. and while it is strictly speaking, fulfilling its commitments on gas supplies, many seats, current refusal to increase export volumes to europe, or to refill gas from own storage facilities as a means to exert pressure on the ear. and specifically to secure the regulatory licensing of no string to the kremlin spokesman the method of his golf. as said,
1:04 pm
this isn't an issue for the russian government that this is an issue between europe and gas problem. and the questions on this whole subject well shouldn't be directed towards the kremlin. they need to go to gas pro h q to respect to says what is the reason for the decrease in gas delivery? 5, the mile pipeline with gas now going in the reverse direction. is that link between the suspension of supplies to germany and the north stream to pipeline? so no, there is no link. it's a purely commercial issue, and it's up to gas prompt to explain the reasons. well, when you look at the prices, it's clay to see why this is such a big issue at $4.00 to $4.00 and a half times increases across europe when it comes to gas prices. as i said, huge demand for russian gas in europe at the moment. it had been hope that the, the nord stream to gas pipeline would be able to, to slake some of that 1st for gas. the plan was that that would be able to provide
1:05 pm
as much as 55000000000 cubic meters of gas every single year, directly into germany, and then on towards the rest of europe. however, it's found itself snarled up in a bureaucratic process when it comes to certification. here in germany right now, we're hearing it may well not be approved until the 2nd half of 2022. this is after we had thought it would be up and running by well, now that was after the united states lifted sanctions against the north stream to company earlier in 2021 that had previously called the lit cause delays on that project. private u. s. military contract as may be preparing a provocation involving chemical components in east and ukraine. is a warning from russia's defense chief at his meeting at his annual meeting with his ministry. president post and also spoke there outlining worries about native east and expansion and saying the block will be responsible for any escalation just preschool. the contention in europe is the united states, fulton, russia,
1:06 pm
had to respond that every step at every step, the situation was getting worse and worse. and today we're in a situation where we have to make decisions above vladimir putin and defense minister showing go outlined the security and defense situation and russia where things stand the piece of modernization. they also mentioned that the degree of modernization, as in russia's military, is one of the highest in the world. but they also spoke about the challenges facing russia. missed the show go, for example, mentioning the more than a 100 american private military contractors who are currently on the front lines in the civil war in ukraine, which is very close to russia's borders, how they're instructing ukrainian military personnel there. and also, i miss the show you mention that they have information that perhaps are american private military contractors are preparing a chemical provocation for those as the weight. nato continues its military
1:07 pm
assimilation of ukraine's territory. it's been established that there are currently more than a 120 employees of us private military companies present in that than ask region. they are equipping firing positions and the residential buildings and, and public facilities assisting ukrainian special forces and radical on groups to prepare for active hostilities. some canisters, with an identified chemical components, were delivered to carry out provocations in the region as your with regards to international themes, vladimir putin himself spoke about the continuing encroachment of american un. nato forces towards russian borders. he reminisces about the past, for example, spoke about how close her relations were between rush and the united states. a scant decades ago when cia officers were openly advising the russian government, telling them of what steps to take, what policies to pursue. where now emerge military personnel was stationed in
1:08 pm
russian nuclear silo, overseeing things there, how cosy relations between the united states and russia were at the time. but then things began to collapse. bit by bit, the united states. he said, ah, perhaps high and victory, a presumed victory and the cold war began funding, separatist and terrorist movements and organizations in chechnya, for example, which led to misery and countless debt. she said new things since then had grown worse and worse we have, she continued the waves of expansion, nato expansion towards russia. despite the fact that nato promised russia, but that wouldn't happen after the collapse of the soviet union. the situation since then vladimir putin says, has continued to work with nato, a considering ukraine's application to join, which potentially means american missiles stationed in ukraine. the flight of those missiles would be at 10 minutes. flight time to moscow. they were hypersonic
1:09 pm
missiles, 5 minutes launch from ukraine to reach moscow, which for russia is entirely unacceptable. it leaves no time to react, which is why russia, as low as drawn its red line, which is why russia now demands security guarantees that noted native won't expand that infrastructure into ukraine. this is a matter in which russia's prepared to take the most the severe measures that may put in also said that even if security guarantees are given, that they can't be trusted. because the united states has a habit of manipulating or, or using international law to, to suit its purposes when it needs the un, it uses the un, it mentioned that it or it remembers it when it doesn't need the u. s. and forgets it exists. and similarly, the united states pulls out of internet slobs, could follow other treaties at will from the intermediate nuclear forces street,
1:10 pm
here from the open skies treaty with or without explanation. and vladimir putin says russia stands ready to guarantee its own security. would you put those union in case a western collies continued to push their clearly aggressive line, we will respond with the appropriate military and technical measures will provide a tough response to any unfriendly moves. and i want to stress, we have the full right to do this. let me appleton also said that the russia doesn't want any bloodshed at once. stability at once peace and co operation, but that it will take steps to ensure its own security, as he said, is that it is russia's right as it is the right of of every state. you also a made sure to mentor the brush doesn't want exceptional special conditions for itself all at once. ease for it security to be guaranteed. yeah. ahead of the
1:11 pm
talk to the defense ministry, put a brand new submarine from the pacific fleet through its paces, launching an underwater caliber cruise missile seems the weapons successfully struck its target of mainland russia. after travelling more than a 1000 kilometers from the sea of japan. the beleaguered british prime minister approval rating, his nose dive to a record low, or is johnson kennedy has just half the support. see how that the stuff in the pan demik most people pulled know, believe he won't be leading the government and he is time. the main reason seems to be the almost daily damning revelations and photographs suggesting the downing street stuff conservative party workers, and even the pay them self violated code restrictions last year. the latest picture published by the guardian shows paris johnson with his family and stuff sharing wine and cheese, and the downing street garden when the rest of the country was under strict laws on social mixing during the 1st lockdown. but despite the photo evidence, johnson rejects, there was any wrong doing,
1:12 pm
do you normally have wine and cheese meetings with people? there is a meetings with people at work, talk about this is where i live and where i work. there is a meetings of people at what talking about was adding to the british prime minister's woes is an open letter by national health service staff accusing as government of exploiting them. it's after he asked medics to help deliver the fastest and biggest vaccination drive to stave off the surgeon omicron cove. it varied all the health work and say that being asked more or more. but the getting nothing in return, we would like to ask each and every one of you why, despite our incredible efforts, you continue to exploit us on behalf of the whole and a chest workforce. we want you to acknowledge the damage. you have cost apologize and let someone else fix your mess. the n a chest needs to be removed from the political playground. people's lives aren't again. we spoke to an a chest nurse who scale back her work because of the immense pressure she told us. she sees no effort
1:13 pm
by the government to tackle the issues medical stuff are facing right now where we're already seeing like widespread shortages, but all having a massive impact on patient care. and not only that, i think working under those conditions where you are short staffed. then impacts the workers as well, and it's kind of like a cycle, it becomes unbearable. and so i think he's a massive reason why i just stay in people walkway and drive. i myself have left the roll. i was in a contracted role. i've left that now and i just do agency type nothing. the paid. you know, they've done nothing to address the pay on the 3 percent that they had given you know, inflation, this year's 4 percent. so it's not felt by, by the stuff you know, why would they stay under this pressure doing this type of work if they're not being paid badly and they don't feel valued. there's been no no s that i've seen
1:14 pm
from the government to, to tackle retention within the work on the way i know so many colleagues awards. why the facts that we haven't had to pay addressed dispatch that way with now asked to increase the amount of, you know, boost jobs that we get being and not it's going to have an effect then on the other services that we can offer off. it's a lot, a lot of pressure at the moment and people are tired, they all devalued that demoralized and i can't see anything that this government is doing at the moment to address that. the former m p for the u. k. liberal democrats says last week to fate for the conservative party and local elections was another blow to paris. johnson's leadership, amid those plummeting poll ratings. no one really believes that the garden party was in fact a work meeting. the deputy prime minister made it worse by claiming we knew it was a work meeting because everyone was wearing suits. it's caused me to kill and burst
1:15 pm
could have avoids all of this by simply saying, we're not going to legislate for a lockdown. we just ask people to co operate in a lockdown because no one's perfect. and it stops double standard, which has caused a lot of grieving people who couldn't even go to their parents or friends, funerals, to feel that they have been treated like fools by the prime minister. and that's not a sustainable position. first, johnson has been the most successful party leader for the conservatives since margaret thatcher. and he has definitely been regarded as an electoral asset to a desirable leader when it comes to adding votes. the bi election, which the consultants lost to the liberal democrats. after 200 years of holding a seat begins to call into question the one thing you could always depend on boris johnston to deliver which was victory without slat track record
1:16 pm
a victory and with the continuing ongoing problems and accusations of hypocrisy. persons in trouble, right. the british medical journal, one of the world's leading industry publications is lashed out at facebook for incompetent. fact checking that lead to one of his articles being blocked follow is reportedly got a missing context flags over for it's a report on major flaws in the pfizer vaccine trial shot dash the reports. the british medical journal, which is one of the world's most prestigious, is now writing facebook for inaccurate, incompetent, and irresponsible fact checking us even legitimate information like their own as being granted as information. readers began reporting a variety of problems when trying to share our article. some report had been unable to share it. many others reported having their post flags with warning about missing context. we find the fact check be formed by lead stories to be inaccurate,
1:17 pm
incompetent and irresponsible. it fails to provide any assertions, the fact that the b m g article got wrong. so this was all in relation to a journal that was published earlier last month by the pm j themselves and shed on social media. the article included materials revealing a host of poor clinical trial research practices that they all you could impact that data integrity and of course, patient safety all within this contract research company that was working, helping to deliver the pfizer vaccination now, according to the bmt, this article really have trouble being shared online and somewhat even branded with these warnings. saying that they were independent fact checkers the same information could even mislead people. obviously they were very, very angry indeed, but matter has hit back saying that best check has
1:18 pm
a working around the clock to look at information and see. but if any content has any missing information they will be affected. of course, the missing context label applies to content while true or real might still be misleading because crucial information is missing. we would like to point out the lead stories are not involved and enforcing said community guidelines and that we agree, this content probably should not be blocked. well, they also went on to say that and 2 boxes use this article as proof that the entire clinic all trial was fraudulent. and indeed the vaccine was unsafe. that for the b m. j, it's simply unacceptable. they are, of course, a highly reputable as source of information here in the united kingdom, and obviously are allegations like that will seriously discredit. then they also say what they're presenting as fact. however, facebook may be looking at it more like in a section for either you or some of from pennsylvania,
1:19 pm
some of the sport like and it's not for the record. she's been breaking 22 year old, lia thomas's transgender and swimming at world magazine claims the advantage her athletic skills. giver over female competitors is similar to doping. the in c, w. one, your suppression requirement is not nearly stringent enough to create a level playing field between thomas and the biological females against whom she is racing. for nearly 20 years, she built muscle and benefited from the testosterone naturally produced by her body . that strength does not disappear overnight, nor with a year's worth of suppressant, and this strength is beneficial to her stroke on turns and to her endurance doping as the same effect. well, cross this one tonight are to tell you, hawkins done a lot of fuss over this is an unfair advantage. you know, end of the day. what's the consensus? well, it's a mixed bag of opinions on this really soon. well, of course it's one of the sports most respected publications. i mean that it tauriel piece drawn loan. we but just questions, not so much about the rights of transgender athletes to compete in sports. i don't
1:20 pm
think that's out for the bait is mostly with fairness and boundaries and the rules under which they compete. and in that article, which was quite strongly worded and wanted to make clear, he's not accusingly, it's almost of doping. that's not what this is about. but rather about the effects and advantages of undergoing agenda change to compete in women's sports. and we have to put this into context here because lead thomas, of course, was a participant in males. some accommodations for a number of years before undergoing testosterone suppression treatment. presumably in that year when competition was suspended, when she came back to participate in women's competitions according to all the rules and regulations that following year. and since then, she's really been breaking record off the record, the ivy league $500.00 yard freestyle. the program competition in one race in particular, she finished 38 seconds ahead of a closest rival. neil suits of figures pretty much unheard of in sports. these are
1:21 pm
very much record breaking events and that's cause people to ask questions. no less from the parents. some other competitors who wrote an open letter to the n, c i and to penn state, expressing concerns at the clear disparity in physical traits between the summit at stake here is the integrity of women, sports, the precedent being set, one in which women do not have a protective and equitable space to compete as a direct threat to female athletes in every sport. what all the boundaries, how is this in line with the n c, a commitment to providing a fair environment for student athletes? again, even from the parents point about anything, the question of the rights of transgender athletes to compete is being raised at school, about fairness and really where should launch be drawn in terms of that level playing field. right. so what's lia this about this and what's the us atlantic association of the say about it? well, the n c a has a respondents request for comment and we'll bring that to abuse. as we get it, the university did respond saying that they are inclusive of every body's
1:22 pm
participation in sports. they've double bound on their support fully. it's almost like even gone so far as to offer mental health support services. so those are struggling to understand this whole issue of transgender athletes participation. this is what they had to say in response to the parents letter. beneflex is committed to being a welcoming and inclusive environment for all, all student athletes, coaches, and stuff. and we held true to that commitment today and in the future. it's almost of course as found herself really at the center, the focal point of the scandal and in her rise. she's followed the rules and regulations things. she's submitted all her medical documents and medical notes and has done everything that's required of her record. and these competition rules to enable her to participate as a female across these ivy league, some competitions. i submitted all of my medical work that i've been collecting for the past year of hormone tests and
1:23 pm
medical notes from my doctor and sent all that into the ca and they approved everything and i was clear to compete on the women's team. now it's clear that this issue is raised the host of emotions and opinions from both sides of, of the device. it cause a lot of strong emotions on the question really isn't about leah thomas is not even about, as we said, the right of transgender athletes to be competing. it's more to do with the water rules and regulations imposed by sports association, sports competitions. and do they will provide a fair and a level playing field for all participants and use competitions on this case. simply, it's almost really could set a precedent for such future discussions in swimming. but across other sports disciplines, there's something that's athletes across the world. a coaches, sports teams will very much be keeping close on go downhill, can thank you. will find one thought tonight,
1:24 pm
some time of the year coast had taken stock and planning ahead and for the russian defense for that's true. same thing that means abstain ahead of the technology game this year. so we're going to leave you this without sees you shop of oliver looks at the military's latest drone system. ah, with we're showing this british for the 1st time odyssey film, the moment a guided missile launched by rushes around, unmanned aerial vehicle hate and moving at target. ryan is the rushing on his fast multifunctional recognizance and strike the if pass . a number of stringent tests has now been ordered by the defense minister of
1:25 pm
russia and is in mass production. ah, ryan also performed successfully in ministry operations and syria. iran is the production name, but in the russian on it, it's in a hold it which translates as pacing horse or ryan or in hot it's true, has a maximum take off weight of more than a ton carries a payload of $250.00 kilos. it's 8 meters long and has a wingspan of 16 meters. it's flying. duration is more than 24 hours. it's ottomans can be placed on 3 attachment points. it kind of use corrected and then guided bombs and guided missiles. in terms of it finds and capabilities a ryan can be compared with the american and key one. see great ego. these really harm is 900 and the chinese wing, but the tank is joined by iraq tanelle in russia for its participation in the now gordon, a car back and see we're in conflict as well. it's for, it's used by neighboring ukraine in the dom, boss is homicide pathways,
1:26 pm
caring capacity is also half as much welcome to drone began in 2011 to come for the 1st time in 2016. and in april 20 to 20. it ended said this with the russian army, stay in how this current has been a real combat in syria. it is in service with the russian army while it's younger, yet larger brother ellen with other trains are being developed by the concept company here in moscow. i really need that 1st domestic unmanned aerial vehicle belonging to the international nail clause, which stands for medium altitude, long endurance, u, a v. as mentioned earlier, it can stay aboard for more than 24 hours. initially its mission was to conduct aero recognizance then night. in a wide variety of climates including in the arctic and, and the desert. today, a ryan is not totally for reconnaissance, but also for strike purposes. one ground control center. they can handle several
1:27 pm
aircraft at once. the complex comprises of their rural air, crow 6, there are up to 6 large drones in one. the complex of, at the same time, the complex allows you to move tenuously control and ensure the use of opposite or drones in the air. what the now we're working on a new modification. it will allow one control point a bit to provide a simile, tenuous control plan coordination of up to 20 aircraft. or in fact, this is already small technology also into the complex includes a ground take off and landing point b, a ground control station and ground support facilities. this machine can lift to 150 kilos. these are optical electronic systems, video cameras and radars for strike purposes it, he's as both standard small caliber albums and weapons designed specifically for drain fiber optic, near fi that chat with it engines on you will hardly be able to hear it around
1:28 pm
a different it distinctive feature is the low acoustic signature which makes the device almost silent. one implies one sounds amazing about the as the enemy can be taken by surprise. in order to ensure it can fly for such a long time, the device must have a patrick's ira dynamic platform. in particular, a wing of high aspect ratio is designed on as planted engine has low fuel consumption. iran is powered by a piston engine, which is also assembled internally by the manufacturer. that our complex has an open architecture ethic, which allows integrating almost any payloads through to winning weapons in accordance with the customers requirements because we produce both domestically or abroad. and the most important thing in the u. a. v is software, both on board and external. 90 percent of it is produced in the constant group of companies. and this is the most vital and expensive work. this is a unified ground control center 4, medium and heavy. you ease from here,
1:29 pm
the aircraft is prepared for flight systems are tracks and if necessary, it's mission is controlled during the flight. also, the control center has the function of a built in simulator. so operators have the opportunity without lifting the aircraft into the ad to train the control of its target loads, communication between other vehicles and interaction with other types of troops. we'll add the ground control center, which is capable to guide all the trans produced by the crunch that company. therefore, they call it a universal control center. a lot of official intelligence is used here. and this is how the real, what happens, a ryan is during his combat mission flying over the firing range billboard is controlling remotely. it is about to capture and find a target id. by the way they do by ashley, november 2021. the company rolled out
1:30 pm
a new automated workstation, if several such workstations are installed and a ground control center, it will be possible to control as many as 20 drones at once. and finally, another challenge for a ryans manufacturer is, is the very tight lines that the minister of defense says for the company. that's all in order to increase the production volume of this and other larger size drones . a new blonde is being built and dibner near moscow. it's launch is scheduled for the end of this year. so it's obvious that business got off the ground and very soon flying robles will god and protect s. u dash above oliver aussie with .
