12:04 am
a silly solicitor who is thoroughly lum booker, if we did so. she did it. the it is worth of course, mentioning that violations have been registered on both sides of the conflict line . so both sides, according to the u. s. c. r shooting. this is this includes artillery 80 millimeters, a 120 millimeter artillery suits of the certainly both sir. violations have been registered on both sides, but it is also worth mentioning that the on the side of the fraud lives in the breakaway republics. where in a city, denise of 2000000 people. so any shot that lands here, any explosion here causes that much more terror. moran, have you had chance since you arrived to talk to many of the locals? what are they telling you to have been even plan to get out of their look?
12:05 am
well, locals are very divided. there are those who of course, want a using this opportunity to get out. many of them of thousands upon thousands are already in the rushes, roster of region, for example. and some of them have explained that they have told us that they have lost loved ones. they, they don't want to go through this again through what they went to a previous years. course not milan. it was very scary. the shells were flying. i'm scared for my grandchildren and my children, look i, we were told that we had to leave very quickly. my husband, son and daughter, all state that everyone has their own household to look after their own job to go to. unless you thought that this situation started back in 2014 and then my son became disabled. my daughter in law died and one year old grandson received a head injury. and of course we are now very, very afraid. neither shall yet to hear of any. these evacuation is ongoing,
12:06 am
more and more people are deciding to leave to wait out this, this latest escalation of course, hoping for the best. nevertheless, there are many people who, if not the majority who have elected to state this evacuation, that priority is, is for women, children the, the elderly men of service age. so that's $18.00 to $55.00 aren't being allowed out . the mobilization of the way people are. 2 joining, joining the defense of deanna and another to the to break away provinces. we have seen teary eyed good buys with her, with wives and family, saying good bye to that to their husbands, to their sons brothers. as they joined the fight here in easton ukraine. the defense of that city. many people, the scott, this is another patriotic war. nevertheless, we have also seen huge lines when we were driving in to the nets. we saw huge
12:07 am
slides of cars with authorities and local law enforcement. searching the cars coming around any men that found inside them. so things are certainly hectic here. there is a lot of hope, especially among civilian population, that there will be a resolution found diplomatic dialogue that will deescalate things here. but as things stand now again, 6 30 in the morning, we had a shoe of explosions, not far from to, from the city center of vignettes, towards the area of the airport, with, with more explosions there. it's been a rapidly changing situation over the past 48 hours. we'll check back in with you later moran find out. thanks for joining us. and the next that more on that evacuation where i was referring to, there is now 2 days into that rescue operation from the break away. don't bash republics 2 neighboring russia. ortiz. donald corta is at one of the locations, accommodating them russian region of russell is under a state of emergency,
12:08 am
and the authorities have set up zones all over the region to accommodate the expected 700000 evacuees. coming from the don bus region of eastern ukraine and one of the things that the regions governor asked was for the owners of hotels in the region to help out in the accommodation process. and as you can see here, this hotel that we're staying in is no exception behind me. you can see a number of evacuees from the don bus region that have already made their way into russ stove. they're right now checking into the hotel and there's another part of the hotel where they're already trying to give monetary compensation to these people that are coming to russia as evacuees. they don't know how long they're gonna be here and they don't know what's gonna happen if there's going to be a ukrainian invasion or not. but as, as for right now, this is their reality. ah,
12:09 am
if anybody is before a boss arrived here, me, my nephew, his wife and their son, i left my house, set my dog free. let the cat out of the house abandoned my own house and laughed my nephew. she's the same. everyone left their homes because it's very scary there. we travelled the whole night and day, the cues, a terrible moving only 10 meters, an hour kilometer long queues. bosses with kate standing there. well, nursing a place you in our village there is constant shelling we decided to leave because a miss i landed at our apartment building entrance. what exactly would you have wanted this for your child? would you? i also don't want this for neither my grandchildren nor do you know how heads get blown off before parents eyes. no, and we know how parents hid their 3 children in a bathroom and they all got blown there. you don't know this on the phone because i'm so far from politics. i don't think anything about it. i just want to leave the c monitoring mission in eastern ukraine, says sci fi violations along the front line doubled on saturday. from the previous
12:10 am
day, some shells fell on russian territory, presumably 5 by the ukrainian army. meanwhile, the ukrainian president told the munich security conference of the weekend that the breakaway republics are to blame for the escalation. sure, they showed some shells on temporarily occupied territories that allegedly came from our side. and then some shells have been shown even on rust off rage and territory. those are all provocations those allies. nobody died that no one is injured. that's just cynicism. they're such a high level cynicism that they shelling themselves, they themselves shooting at the territory. they control the statement. they're the ones shooting in relation to the people of don bass could only be made by a solar cynic given. how many people in the don? yes, can lu ganske republics have died over the years? the special o s. c monitoring mission is registering. shelling that comes considerably more from ts forces. perhaps that is why washington withdrew us observers from the
12:11 am
mission so that there would be no american witnesses. after all, they could accuse the government of lying. the multi national security conference is being held for the 1st time without a russian representative. as western leaders level direct warnings at moscow. saskia taylor, andrew farmer, discussed that earlier. this forum has drawn, had more than 100 ministers over thought. he had serv, state lots on the agenda from ukraine to climate change from cobit to crypto currency notice be absent this year. and the russian delegates, partly because washington box is yet to be recognized by the u party. of course, because of this was in communication with the west. now russia might not be that, but it is still the topic on everyone's lead. unfortunately, what we seem to have seen is really just a continuation of the rhetoric of the last few months, which is something to up will for diplomacy. it's russia here that is being the aggressor. but let's just break this down and look at the facts because moscow is
12:12 am
taking concrete diplomatic steps to try and diffuse the current tensions. i'm talking specifically about the ongoing deliberations to get a signature and a legally binding document. that would stop nato from expanding for the eastward and would stop it from hosting such troops and missiles and russia. now from the start, moscow is consistent. he said, we have wanted with you to sit down and talk to us about all very serious security concerns. not to his credit for his johnson in munich, said that he was willing to lay putin spares and give him a little less and, and how kind loving nato is, is a piece and a defensive alliance. and we are willing to work with president putin to demonstrate that point, and to give him the assurances that he may need. but it seems that the nato chief himself seems to be aware about this, primarily defendant says character of his military lines. so if the kremlin name
12:13 am
is to have less nato on its borders, it will only get more natal not, not sure how want to spend one self buy in start playing and not the country, but the false even goes a bit farther. because while the nato chief has issues with russian troops stationed on russ, russian or a tree, he claims that the presence of tens of thousands of his forces alongside calls around 6065000 us troops all over europe. ready right up to russians. borders thought, is there any legitimate and defensive? not just thought, apparently without them, that would be no world peace. 2 world wars and the cold war has totals. there is no real security near without the strong trans atlantic ball standing together and i to europe and america will continue to keep the peace. don, goodness, for nato one can say, but it's not just the nature forces that are breathing down, rushes next. we've also heard from us the camera harris,
12:14 am
who has warned of this plan functions package that will suffocate an isolate russian unprecedented manner. a sentiment that was echoed by forest johnson too. it really does seem that for a conference that claims to be all about diplomacy and communication. that seems to be very little thought at the moment. instead, what we seem to be witnessing is really the latest installment of this almost war mongering hyped up hysteria. that, of course, has been bothering us for 5 in recent times. jim and journalist over height and whose spend time reporting on conditions in dumbass says no one seems to care that kia is amassing a huge military force stronger than ever before. as it is a disgusting game, provocateurs or in kiev, under the leadership, the united states, they built an army and sent a 120000 ukrainian soldiers to the contact line. they do not talk about it at all, only russia, russia, russia. i think he was trying to escalate the situation in some way. they keep
12:15 am
saying russia is attacking russia is invading. i think russia can't just stand by now was around 700000 people in the dumbass region. have russian passports, the journalist stress that germany should send politicians, journalists, reporters, directly to that the nets and against republics to check the ferocity of the facts, such as were the houses have been destroyed and with a large caliber weapons are used. the result of this should be berlin's demands that representatives of key ab in the people's republic, me to the negotiating table, where the implementation of the men sc agreements will be disgust along with elections. amendments to the ukraine constitution and the autonomy of the people's republics. amid the ongoing crisis, russia and bella roosts have been conducting joint military drills to bolster security at their borders with ukraine. on sunday marks the last day of those exercises after which the troops will return to their permanent basis as jojo chaparral about reports. ah,
12:16 am
we are in belarus in the breast region that borders poland and ukraine since february, the 10th of the launch scale, joined russia. deliveries, military exercise called the allied result 2022 has been held here. according to moscow, these are the plans exercises the presence of russia and deliveries agreed on them at the end of last year. i think have been repeatedly emphasized the drills, i totally defensive and absolutely transparent. officially, the exercise is going to work at the top of a repelling external aggression strengthening. the protection of board is blocking the channels for the supply weapons, as well as countering terrorism and protecting interests of the union state of
12:17 am
russia and deliveries as many as 5 training grounds. and 4 ad fields are in vote, and there are many, most of them located in the south. west of beller is 170 kilometers on the border with ukraine. and poland. bay area is considered turbulence due to the fact that o, 4 and trips concentrated on the other side of the board and including the u. s. military and other nato forces in europe. according to the bell, the russian foreign ministry, nato has conducted 3 times as many exercises in the region over the past chair. by the way, this place is located far away from the de la garza republics where the inside of conflict with ukraine has been brewing for several years. so the exercise has already been completed as trips have fulfilled, that talks officially the money finishing february, the 20th, and some trips and equipment. i've already left the place so well. other countries
12:18 am
claim that russia is building up the military power on the border with ukraine. actually, it is quite the opposite. the fox is that the unit and not arriving, but departing to that place is a permanent deployment on railway platforms and much case. but right now we're witnessing an active phase of the drills here in beverage or other headline news. now and in canada, police in riot gear have swept through the capital, arresting at least 170 demonstrators over the past 2 days and towing away locating trucks as the government pushes to finally stamp our persistent protests that have gone for almost a month now, against kobe restrictions and vaccine mandate and police stepped in to re take control of the streets in front of parliament. the authorities say some demonstrations were in body armor, while others carried smoke grenades and fireworks for protest. leaders were among those arrested. distressing video being shed online shows mounted police forcing their way through crowds this weekend. oh
12:19 am
my goodness, a . 7 statement by freedom company representatives condemned to the government's use of violence against the protest is in the capital and such the truck as have been asked to move away from the parliament precinct to avoid any further clashes of many have gathered in ottawa to have accused the authorities of a heavy handed approach here 20 days and they're being very heavy here today. they're pushing back with this is not canada. go visit jaden ship, you know, is learning our country will get here. don't be afraid to stand with these people.
12:20 am
i'm abroad with i stepped in between her and them so they couldn't take her. then they tricked me out from under my feet. i feet underneath and thank god man like these guys pulled me right back out. right. so he'll stay on those resisting arrest with forcefully taken away by offices with several pinned to the ground before being handcuffed among them. protest organizes inter him all to a police chief says he's pleased with the progress in removing the demonstrators. we've made some very important progress in safely removing this unlawful protest from our streets. we've backed up those warnings with a deliberate and methodical operation using lawful and safe tactics. we are, we all saw that this is, the protesters were aggressive with the officers and we needed to use horses at one point. as a result, we responded this morning by adding helmets and baton to our equipment for the safety of our officers. the relish on just taking place in canada's capital
12:21 am
u. s. truck as have joined the canadian counterparts to again block the border between their countries. online fundraisers for the protests have also been blocked as had the accounts of people linked to the demonstrations. they've been frozen, leaving some of them in financial limbo, journalist and blogger, lauren southern who spoke to was from the board of told kevin that suspending bank accounts will back fire on the government. i'd say 90 percent of the truck you're already left. they're headed down to multiple locations. i'm in july, british columbia right now. tom for them are going to be headed down to a row near the border that lease have actually shut down and checkpoints with raj to ensure that no convoy so got to go there to shut it down to see how many people are going to that use organization because 212 was which way they went but there's like about a 1000 people. you're like i said 90 was but you still got, you know, got people maybe why it's shocking. this is the opposite
12:22 am
side of canada, right. this is the opposite. charging auto rainy day, you filled out, people coming out just to meet the government mandate issue. these have been known vall demonstrates is to say the banking trans blog emergencies that has been used as that goes down. yeah, so i'm speaking some people on the ground here. they travel from ours out saying i was everything i've donated. i've taken part in the tomboy project. 2 and now i'm not even going to the bank account anymore. so what do i have to lose about a mortgage is the rent food? that's an excellent question, and i think that's why you're going to keep seeing the approach as well. because people are terrified, they have nothing to lose at that point. and this is going to be interesting to note the play because he may squash the protest in ottawa. but you can have a crazy lack of all across the country of other projects showing up and coming out
12:23 am
saying fine, want to take everything from us. we want to take our bank accounts, our jobs were going to have nothing better to do then to camp out whether it be kill as toronto. ottawa need to cross country that are not going to shop shine. ah, an associate of deceased american sex offender, jeffrey epstein has been found dead in jail in france. john looked brownell who was being held on suspicion of traffic and girls to epstein was found hanging in his cell. the french prosecutor's office says acquire, has been opened by the early indications due point to suicide. the french modeling agent disappeared from public life shortly after epstein's august 2019 suicide. also in jail, for that was initially put on the investigation for the alleged rape of a minor and sexual harassment, and also suspected of trafficking underage girls which he denied. a journalist and political commentator in paris told us the dismal prison conditions could have led to his suicide. as the 2nd person asked jeffrey epstein, who was found hanged in a prison cell,
12:24 am
supposedly out safe from intervention. and then i started talking to witnesses and i will not to witnesses, but 2 sources and people who follow this closely. and what they say is look, it's a bit different from america because a brownell was in jail for 2 things. one was something that was hanging on him, which is something unconnected to the jeffrey of china story, which is allegedly raping a minor somebody who's under 18 and falls. and the other one was of course, his connection to jeffrey epstein. his lawyers say that he was 75 years old that he'd be put in jail for things that he felt was he was not guilty off. and i have no idea, you know, i know also this one, but that is a horrible place to be. it's, it's the pres, unless somebody has the place where french, a number of french politicians have been imprisoned and they all had a very different attitude to conditions in prison after the weather. and he was
12:25 am
depressed, he felt that his life was finished and that he was not given. he was not a flight risk and, and he ought to have in and out to, to wait until the, the trial began outside the jail. he also felt that he was being driven into, into an extremely full situation where the justice was supposed to look like it was very harsh, or just because it was part of this american story. if you look at other size and you speak to journalists who been following the matter, they say that gwinnett were suspected, or accused of having traffic more than 1000 very young women for jeffrey epstein was not just for now his life was damaged by his relationship with epstein, but it seems that with enough money and power, many of epstein associates have managed to avoid any serious repercussions. ortiz, danny armstrong takes a closer look. if the jeffrey epstein scandal has taught us. one thing is that you can get away scot free with almost anything provided your rich, famous and influential. looked back at what fate befell the usual suspects in the
12:26 am
epstein affair tells us exactly that. first there's prince andrew. his former royal highness is off the legal hook after parting with a princely sum to silence his sex abuse case. now public censure still haunts epstein's former friend, who faces fresh calls to be deprived of his duke of york title. carrying a title does create an ambassadorial relationship with that place and for somewhere with global reputation such as york. this is extremely important. it is to be welcomed that he has now pledge to support the fight against the evils of sex trafficking and its victims. to demonstrate his seriousness in this endeavour and his respect for those affected by abuse and the people of our city, i would ask that his 1st act of contrition is to confirm his support for the withdrawal of his ducal title. his accuser, virginia to fray is set to receive
12:27 am
a king's ransom from the printer to the tune of $12000000.00 pounds. that's a handsome amount, despite the 2 having never actually met allegedly the amount was paid with the help from mommy dearest. of course. and his legal woes simply disappeared. much like the duke of york from the royal inner sanctum, but royal family exile and paying through the nose for trouble. his crown jewels allegedly got him in to didn't entirely absolve andrew. he has been stripped of a string of titles, honorary rolls and ranks but not to worry. his fall from grace did lands him in another exclusive club of those who escaped scrutiny for their association with epstein. new club mates include former us president bill clinton, who also went absolutely unscathed by public castigation for his too close for comfort friendship with the disgrace financier. in fact, on the same day,
12:28 am
snaps of clinton being rubbed down by one of epstein's alleged victims, became public. he spoke at the 2020 democratic national convention, endorsing joe biden. you know, we're done. group will do reform warriors blown bully and belittle her, you know, a job, bill burke better, it's dropped us versus go america against oberg. america then is epstein lawyer allen dish of is who has somehow steered clear of public scorn despite being closely connected to his former client and friend. that despite allegedly knowing of his lane maxwell's kind of confirmation and a 2015 e mail, that the infamous photo of andrew and his accuser was indeed authentic. that bombshell reportedly triggered the all important settlements. there is no question that epstein was the most culpable person,
12:29 am
but by immunizing some named people which occurred, but also any one who was a potential co conspirator that really precluded the idea of cooperating other co conspirators against epstein, which would have been a critical thing to pursue a more serious case against epstein. perhaps maxwell herself could shed some light on these matters. booked court documents on her case, like her lips remain sealed on the matter. those portions of the transcript which were redacted in the civil matter concerned, privacy interests in their disclosure would merely serve to cater to a craving for that which is sensational and impure. the court thus concludes that such rejections are justified. so jeffrey epstein never made its outs of prison alive, and it looks for all the money in the world as though his close is confident is facing the same fate. others have alluded, screwed to me either by hiding in plain sight or like andrew by cashing in on the crown to make a royal pain. simply go away. okay,
12:30 am
those are the big stories were across for you this of sunday, the 20th of february here at archie. i'm calling for i will update you again and exactly half an hour. ah ah ah, more than 20 years of passed since one of the world's deadliest terrorist attacks than to thousands of lives, people started to scream. there was a wave that came up for us. that was like opening up an oven door, but not all wounds of heel. the survivors and responders have increased rates of concern, other health issues due to the dust and chemicals they inhaled. the coming in to get my blood cleaned up. the knowles, the pain, along with.
