they act in the same way as terrorist to they hide the truth in the hope of blaming russia. it is reliably known that this is happening under the direction of foreign consultants, primarily americans. several unverified images have emerged, the ukrainian army taking heavy weaponry into residential areas. i, russian defense ministry spokesman says the russian military will not be drawn into provocations and will not attack heavy weaponry inside cities. he also noted this similar tactics were used by cia backed militants in the middle east. meanwhile, ukraine has scrapped the age limit, needed to join the army and band old men between 18 and 60, from leaving the country. ukrainian authorities also issuing guns to any citizen who wants one in the cat region alone is reported that more than 10000 rifle is behind it. out to volunteers, charles schubert, j for my counter terrorism intelligence officer says giving out guns carries certain risks to give out weapons to anybody that offers to use them against
5:04 am
somebody is probably quite a requisite sparks of desperation. of course. but to palm comes, when weapons are given out freely, that 1st of all, you're giving it to people who may not be copy, trying to how to use them in the 1st instance. and secondly, you've got an issue that you've only got it on trusted as people are going to use those weapons against the invader. after all, they could be going to actually anybody at once you introduce those weapons freely into an environment as yet will, you cannot keep control of those weapons. will the russian defense ministry claims ukrainian forces are targeting civilians and la ganske, a claims residential. he has came under heavy rocket fire with a number of people killed again last going on in ukraine. we can cause i have to, i tease from on cancer. if he's in done yet, for his remind, i did to see, could you bring it up to date on the details of this incident place?

5:06 am
this starts happening. meanwhile, a shilling here in the next republic where we are, continues to this day, the city of john nest, we heard several explosions during the day. meanwhile, the city of warlock, a shilling, continue his non stop to this hour and the mayor of the city of fall of reports so that several explosions, several shillings have taken place on of friday. 2 teachers have been killed as the result of artillery fire on thursday. another 2 people were killed and there were sacks during the day on the saturday as well. and this is what the mayor of the city said about those incidents yogurt. mo, school, i have repeatedly said that ukraine's forces awaiting genocide against their own
5:07 am
people. to day 815 a. m. the area was hit by a large caliber project house because we didn't have time to identify. and 3 houses were damaged in the emergency services and local officials arrived swiftly at the scene when it was at exactly 9 31 am they attacked the same place again, there were about 8 strikes. the ukrainian side knew perfectly well that the emergency services would be that good. everyone can you bring is the latest on russia is ongoing military operation place. well, talking about what's happening in the u gray and according to the defensive, in his fear, russia's operation to neutralize, the ukraine's military infrastructure ah, continues, and her earlier, there were a reports that scores offer ukrainian soldiers had been killed on the island of as mean the in the near the city offer or dis i killed by the, her, russian, a military in a, in
5:08 am
a combat situation. and they were how quickly proclaimed the heroes of fo ukraine by president of latimer zalinski. however, a footed sure emerged from the defense ministry, a showing of the soldiers alive and well. and apparently they have just left simply a surrender to russian troops. and they are now in a civil stobel in the crimea completely taken care off. and they've been promised a safe passage back home once the operation and ukraine concludes. now russian defense ministry stress that their sole authority, it is the ukrainian military infrastructure and not the civilians. less of a lesson for us is given us worship. remote in russian service men are taking all measures to ensure the safety of civilians and exclude provocations by ukrainian special services and nationalists. our fire is directed only as the military
5:09 am
infrastructure of the armed forces of ukraine, or we do not target residential and social infrastructure lookup. of course, there's also been reports about an intensity and a more intensifying situation in dumbass as well. what's you know about that? well, of fighting continues here in la ganske region. in jeanette screech in the head of the republic, the miss bushland in generic says that the operation to liberate the rest of the nest people's republic. willis soon ends by the forces will not rest until uh that happens. so now a heavy fighting is said taking place in the south of the republic and near the city of mario paul, it's about a couple of hours drive away from my here. now are apparently a nationalist militia group called us off of ukraine is controlling the city there in circle it and prevented a preventing the civilians from evacuating. now that group has been associated with
5:10 am
the neo nazi believes and had, there were accused of of war crimes and they're now preventing civilians from leaving agree making them into a human shield a basically meanwhile, elsewhere, several settlements and on boss have been liberated by leads on net sca army and we've even the seen ah footage of a local, a soldier swishing ukrainian flags to those of the de nest people. so republic, hands of the ball there. once again, the fighting continues and we're hearing an explosion say here in don't ask as well the closer to the center of the city, but they have not been happening as frequently as they have in the last couple of weeks. okay, many. thank so long cars thought his corresponding remind in don. yes that we heard from patrick kennings, an executive editor of 21st century wire dot com. he thinks the ukranian government has little control over some of the more extreme forces fighting in the country.
5:11 am
you don't really have a fully functioning state. and i think a lot of people will argue that, you know, on many levels, ukraine has been the kind of a failed state in some sense, after the coup in 2014. but just by nearby the nature of the fact that they don't have the military hierarchy don't have full control over all of their a paramilitary units, we're talking about the us all battalions. and some of the more extreme radical right leaning extreme right, leaning military units that russia moscow's complained about that or not under the full control of the unified ukrainian military hierarchy. and hence, this is why you probably have all of these of civilian casualties shelling in the dom bass. and at the same time the government makia has been denying that they've been firing or broken ceasefire protocols regarding the mix
5:12 am
accords and so forth. so that level of deniability is always very convenient if you have sort of freelancing our units within your military structure. the russian defense ministry says russian forces have entered the cities of semi and con, talk in ne crane. according to its report, trips were not met with resistance. earlier the ministry also said trips and the don, yes, can the guns were public are advancing with the support of russian forces. they've moved 25 kilometers west beyond the former contact line into territory. that wasn't till now held by care of numerous ukrainian soldiers have reportedly surrendered and laid down their weapons. russian force is now control the city of china golf in north you train and goes to mel airfield in the suburbs of key f. o. despite the ongoing battle, as there is still a glimmer of hope for a diplomatic solution, kiev said it was ready to talk with the kremlin about a ceasefire and a status of neutrality. artist on coach reports from to gown walk in southern
5:13 am
rationale. the kremlin is ready to sit down at the negotiating table. they've put forward 3 very clear demands. the 1st one is demilitarization of ukraine. it's pretty self explanatory. they don't want ukraine to be a military threat to russia anymore, and they especially don't want it to have nuclear weapons. this is something that a members of parliament in ukraine were openly talking about before this russian offensive began. now the 2nd point is d knots, vacation of the country. russia has already actually started an investigation into war crimes carried out at the hands of neo fascist organizations within the ranks of the ukrainian military. they want to help hold them responsible for 8 years of indiscriminate bombing of the people of don, boss, men, women, and children. and the 3rd is making ukraine a neutral country. they don't have to be friends with russia, but russia does not want it to be part of the nato military alliance. this is something that russia said for months already. it's been
5:14 am
a demand of theirs for months before this operation started. but unfortunately, uh, the west nato, uh, the, the u. s. europe, they've all rejected that proposal. now prudent also said that it would be easier to negotiate at this point with ukrainian military actually than, than the government in kiev. he's called on the military to take charge so that they can come to the negotiating table. you sure that would assures guido solution will room 2. and once again, appeal to the military personnel of the armed forces of ukraine do not allow neo nazis to use your children, wives, and the elderly. as human shields take power into your own hands, it looks like it will be easier for us to come to an agreement. jeff has also said that it's willing to sit down at the negotiating table. they have one main demand, if they're gonna agree to what russia is saying that i just mentioned their demands . they want 3rd party security guarantees. after all, zalinski is basically said that although the e u,
5:15 am
the u. s. nato say they said work ukraine, they've left it to offend for itself on this and, and at the same time, wednesday has been saying that they need to work towards peace. everything needs to be done to work towards an end to the bloodshed, but contradictory. he's also saying that people from europe, with military experience should come to ukraine and joined the ukrainian military to fight russia. yes sir. william, you will be my advice if you have a combat experience in europe and do not want to look at the indecision of politicians. you can arrive in our state and protect europe with us where it is now urgently required. shoghi now as for where these negotiations are going to take place, it's still unclear 1st, russia had suggested men, skin bella, roo says a potential location, but key of then rejected that. came back with a counter offer of war saw in poland, but russia doesn't want to have them there. as for, as for right now, it's unclear, but actually a israel is the prime candidate right now for potential 3rd party mediator of these negotiations because it's one of very few countries around the world that has
5:16 am
a good relationship with both ukraine and russia. so television has yet to respond, but we're gonna have to see what comes out of that. the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman says moscow is always ready to negotiate marines. the however, also claimed that it was the ukrainian governments decisions that have led to the country to disaster. we would always respond to requests for negotiations. we always hold them even with the most aggressive opponents you. it's important to understand that the person stood as the president of ukraine is inadequate for the job when you are in recent years, the decisions that ukraine has meet brought it under the guise of national interests, contradicted the interest they alert that would serve. and that's leading the country to disaster than they are the endless provocations in october and november 2021 alone. there were 5 provocations in the air space above the black sea that needed an answer and its being given way. and we should note were all connected, perhaps by friendship, by business. but when the security of the people,
5:17 am
both ours and the people of ukraine is at stake. these connections will be redundant without demilitarization. so the goals are set and the operation is implemented. i bet i city the e u announced a raft of sanctions against russia following deliberations between european leaders in brussels shall the deepen, sky breaks them down for us. will these sanctions are really designed to attempt to cripple the russian economy. the e u says they are wide ranging and they will be able to do that now. being targeted specifically, are state owned companies, individuals who are incredibly rich and close to the kremlin, and also key sectors of the russian economy. we also know that all members of the russian parliament, the duma, will be targeted by asset freezes and also travel bands here in the u as will those members of the security council. now, bank deposits for just normal russian nationals in you countries will now be
5:18 am
limited to a $100000.00 euros. and there will also be a ban on the sale of a croft machine and any repair parts that are needed to russian airlines. now in an extreme, the and i mean this is, is extremely remove. the e u has also decided to freeze the assets of president putin. and his foreign minister said k, lovegrove. now, as the a european ministers said that these extreme measures are absolutely necessary, but to one of these, and we're adding president putin and foreign secretary love rav to the list of sanctions. they are responsible for the deaths of innocent people in ukraine and for trampling on the international system. we, as europeans do not accept that. it's not just the ease, it's doing that, canada, the u. k. and the u. s. of also decided to freeze their assets. however, the u. s. is going one step further than it has actually imposed
5:19 am
a travel ban on president putin and said caleb roof falling a television, a telephone conversation a president biden held with a european commission president ursula underline and an alignment with the decision by our european allies, united states will join them in sanctioning president putin and foreign minister love rather than members of the russian national security team. now some e u countries are actually creating their own specific sanctions. poland bulgaria and the czech republic have said that they will band russian air crawford flying through their air space and from landing in their airports. and the czech republic has also said it will now not issue residency permits to russia, nationals, and this may not be the end of the sanctions. the e says it's already possibly mulling a 3rd round, which could include banning russia from accessing swift, which is an international payment system that something that the u. k is already on
5:20 am
board with doing and has been trying to persuade the you to do for the last few days. so far though, there has been some resistance to that. now the e u blocks are chief of foreign affairs. i am chief, this is use of beryl has said that these sanctions are not meant to target ordinary russian citizens. and he's also congratulated those in russia who he says have stood up to their governments by protesting. i want to stay where we are not targeting russia people, many of them wish bulk against the senseless war. and i want to salute their courage, the cottage of the people that in 58 russian cities had been demonstrating against a war and were certainly made the difference between cumberland and russia put in not the russian people. so the sanctions are meant to target the elite and not
5:21 am
ordinary ashan russian citizens. but the reality is, sanctions like this will trickle down through the economy. a will impact ordinary individuals and already russian nationals living in parts of the european union and in the u. k. are already wondering how this will bite, how this will impact them, and of course, how it will impact their families. back in russia. economists richard wolf claims that barring russia from the swift banking system would cause huge financial problems worldwide. in a global world, more globally interconnected than ever before. if you blocked the swift system, you are declaring a kind of economic warfare that will damage and destroy all kinds of economic relationships. the reason mister schultz and germany did not want to and stopped the attempt to convert to freeze russia out of swift,
5:22 am
was because it would throw the price of oil and gas up into the roof beyond what it has already been. because you couldn't pay russia for the oil and gas through swift, and they wouldn't send it anymore. and no one knows where that's going to go. so if they do that, if they actually go through with that, they will disrupt global trade. they will drive inflation through the roof. and let me remind everyone, russia, china, iran, and many other countries don't like the domination, the united states as over the swift system. and it really is only a matter of time before there are multiple systems. bitcoin is already functioning to a degree like that. so this would be a very dangerous step because it will accelerate the end of the swift monopoly as to bother with the international condemnation of russia's intervention. ukraine.
5:23 am
mounting a un security council meeting was convened. member states including the u. s. that russia and ukraine issued statements, and there was a vote on a resolution condemning moscow's actions. russia used as veto powers to block it. this is naught, self defense under article 51. it is naked aggression. it is an unprovoked unjustified war, and this council must condemn it. russia's latest attack on our most fundamental principles is so bold, so brazen that it threatens our international system. united states sets the bar when it comes to invasions. i will refrain from listing the aggressions that the united states has committed in its history, but it has no right to preach morality to russia. i will ask all of you to pray for so,
5:24 am
so those who has been already killed for souls. oh, those who may be killed mission with i do apologize. but before moving to a moment of silence, i want to include in the list those people who perished over all these years in don bass. they also are worthy of being mentioned. all human lives are valuable. let's not forget them either. hours before the vote, the text of the draft resolution was watered down in an apparent attempt to gone and more support. for example, the word condemns was replaced by the applause and fitly, while still india, china in the united arab emirates, abstained from the vote. russia as the military actions of always been roundly condemned by the u. s. media, but when he was washington, that was at war. that coverage was quite different. his caleb, more pin is more us media coverage is always so fair and balanced. i am angry at this evil act by this evil leader attacking an innocent nation,
5:25 am
a democratic nation that we wake up this morning to a war in europe, a deadly one. he wasn't just threatening ukraine that significant enough, but he seemed to be challenging that the post cold war order food and wants to take over ukraine, faces on the screen, are filled with pain, anguish, and empathy for the people of ukraine. as russia moves in to try and stop the bombardment, the people of don ask and lugens have been facing for the past 8 years. now let's recall how these same outlets and voices responded to us missile strikes on syria in 2017 and act without any justification under international law. as us outlets cover russia's talkin ukraine, remember how the same outlets cover u. s. a tux when the u. s. bombs, syria in 2017 m. s. m. b c's, brian williams called the footage of the stroke. beautiful. he then quoted lena cohen, i am guided by the beauty of our weapons. cnn's for reeds
5:26 am
a courier was simeon susie austic about trump's attack on syria. i think donald trump became president of the united states last night. he took to a incidental norms in social rules about america's role and enforcing justice in the world. who can forget the invasion of iraq in 2003, based on lies about weapons of mass destruction. on the left is economist after bush invaded iraq on the right is the economist after putin invaded ukraine, spot the difference. this is all about one evil dictator who possesses brutal weapons with which he will threaten and hurt a lot of people, including a lot of americans unless we take them away from him. and all of us, including the iraqi people, are going to be very fortunate. did i think was the smartest thing george bush did? how about when brock obama rallied the world to destroy? what was then the most prosperous country on the african continent with nato bomb? i'm been asking this question over and over. why would we intervene and libya and i still haven't received an answer that totally satisfies me,
5:27 am
but the most consistent one is because it be the right thing to do because people are dying for altruistic reasons. some us bombings don't even get coverage if it wasn't for african tweeting it out, people would have no idea the united states was currently carrying out strikes in somalia. somali us forces engage insurgents and supports the federal government of somalia. why criticize what your own government is doing when you can just as easily virtue, signal and block heartstrings feigning outrage about something that a government on the other side of the planet is doing? if only the russian military was headquartered in washington, then perhaps mainstream us media would be educating us about the beauty of the weapons. caleb martin, r. t. new york. we spoke to journalist on dante contributor, which had met her. he said the west is employing double standards. yeah, i mean the, the hypocrisy is unbelievable. i don't think we can possibly count the number of
5:28 am
countries. the u. s. u k, have have together crude invaded bond since world war 2. it's quite staggering. we . i literally con, name them all. us was bombing syria and brian williams was, you know, foaming at the mouth on live television. it's not isolated, they all do that on every network. i am old enough to remember when they were invading iraq and they were doing the same thing. you had a live stream from a tank on cnn. this is who these people are. they are spokes a person's. they are the mouthpiece for the weapons manufacturers. so it's their job to sell war, and i know this must be very frustrating for americans because when they see bombing on live television, they're used to seeing their own troops do it. so when they see russia doing it to defend itself, it's weird for them. they don't understand it and it causes a lot of it's, there is a lot of emotions. and you know, israel is bombing syria almost every single week. and i don't see anyone in uncovering that as a matter of fact, a few hours before rush along the operational ukraine, israel bomb syria, and there was no coverage at all. so there okay,
5:29 am
with violations of international law and sovereignty and territorial integrity. they're okay with bindings, they're working with wars when they're the ones doing it, and that's most of the time. well, thanks for choosing off the international there saturday where we see she will be here with the very latest talk. ah, ah, ah, evil empire standing up to the empire, life was glad you put in it was announcing his decision to the potentiate your planes, military infrastructure. he wasn't just a resurrect thing. the ghost of the cold war humidity clear that the russian juris animosity never really on the how hog and bloody but it's still gap. ah,
5:30 am
i just got this done a horrible mish couple noise here and you know, they switched over to some who would have done bundio. i school which now. right. or we can come to you and usually it is. we should, bob was kind of where you to be doing you upstairs just before leaving exclude bushes. scott, are you at that desk? i thought it was if are but if you could check that dr. a voice quite a bit. i.
