who claims president makes an impassioned plea to you. but brussels officials have held back on any assurance over the pledges support for ukraine, including ammunition, medical supplies, and weapons, with even traditionally neutral switzerland. joining european sanctions against russia, with hello and welcome to our to international special coverage of the war and ukraine. i'm your host donald quarter, and we start with breaking news from ukraine. russia's defense ministry has announced that it is ready to hit ukrainian security services and information and psychological operation center facilities and key with high precision weapons in

order to suppress information attacks against russia. and while moscow says it does everything, it can to avoid hitting civilian areas. it's advising all citizens to leave the area since the beginning of the special military operation, the number of information attacks on various state institutions of the russian federation of increased many times over. cool, the constantly made the russian citizens with threats of physical elimination as well as about mining schools, kindergartens, row way, stations, and other social infrastructure facilities. information attack so much carried out by the 72nd main center of information and psychological operations of the ukrainian armed forces, as well as by sober operations units of the security service of ukraine using hardware and software systems and communication facilities in key of, in order to suppress information attacks against russia, the technological facilities of the ukrainian security service on the 72nd main center of information and psychological operations in key of will be hit with high

precision weapons we call on ukrainian citizens who recruited by ukrainian nationalists to carry out provocations against russia, as well as residents of ki, of living near the relay hubs to leave their homes. this right here on your screen is unverified footage of people in kia, but the train station trying to flee. it comes as rushes defense ministry calls for civilians around key military sites in the ukranian capital to leave their holes brushes top diplomat has addressed un officials on nuclear disarmament and human rights with a focus on the ukranian conflict. he spoke remotely, because european countries blocked his plane from flying to geneva. archie, katrinka has the details on survey lab, rob speech, enormous concerns, voiced by the washington top diplomat and also some very serious demands. and one of them, perhaps the most important is europe without american nuclear weapons and also

infrastructure for their potential deployment policy. that must be pretty much the it's on acceptable for such in violation of basic provisions of the treaty on the non proliferation of nuclear we and there is still us nuclear weapons on the territory of several european countries. the misguided practice of joint nuclear emissions involving non nuclear nato states is continuing such missions, develop scenarios for using nuclear weapons against russia. it's time to return us nuclear weapons to their origin, country, and dismantle all the infrastructure for those weapons in europe. now, as in the past, we believe there wouldn't be no winner in a nuclear war, and it must never start. well, i guess it's fair to say that mitchell ab rob's the 2nd statement, was mostly a response to the western media to american and european officials who keep saying that the military action, the crating territory, that is now under way by the washing military courses was unprovoked.

now mr. law rob kept reminding the journalists, the officials how after the 2014 coo and key of the right of the russian speaking population. the rights of the pro russian majority in the eastern parts of the country were cause the violated how there were restrictions when it comes to the use of russian language. how the operation this awful anti terrorist operation by the war has went on for almost 8 years. and we do remember that more than 13000 civilians were killed as a result of this terrorist operation to so called in the regions of donnie and the guns and the don bass region. now 30 lab route also spoke of the unilateral sanctions that are currently being imposed by plenty of european countries and the

countries across the atlantic as well. calling them illegal. and here's what else. the foreign minister said about that is up of the west has clearly lost self control in trying to his anger against russia, destroying all the institutions and rules which itself created, including the invited ability of property right merely the west african philosophy based on its own feeling of superiority exceptionalism and impunity must come to an end doors, in which, shortly after we heard from the washing top diplomat, we also part a few things from the kremlin spokesperson dream. pascal was taking questions from journalists now, a few important points that he made. let me just go through the accusations against russia according to the crowd, one the accusations of war crimes are nonsense us something. ready do we do best golf said, besides this, russia continues to consider the landscape,

the president of ukraine. that other message for the credit leadership that came from dimitry pass golf was that if full a difference, then sky as the leader of the great agrees to lay out a harm. in that case, there will be no victims on either side. plus, we also heard from the kremlin press secretary, that the accusations against russia that russia could be using cluster bombs or die q bombs is also complete lives now across ukraine. fighting continues on day 6 of the russian military operation. a missile has destroyed cars and residential buildings in the city of done yet, as showing continues, their number of victims is not yet known. however, the city mayor has warned that there may be victims under the rebel as rescue operations. continue this footage from the don boss shows and abandoned to 64 tanks near the liberated settlement of the gas. it appears that ukrainian forces simply

left the military vehicle with all its equipment and ammunition. entire video is posted on social media show cars, dest didn't key of across the capital's nearly empty streets. this comes in a warnings of escalating crime in the city. as the government is said to be handing out weapons to civilians and released prisoners, the russian military is called on residence to leave kia via a designated highway heading south west. now you should be able to see on your screen right now. plumes of smoke rising over ukraine's 2nd largest city of hot comes with a massive explosion reportedly caused by a projectile in the city center near the regional administration. building local authorities are blaming russia, but media reports have said that there are not even russian forces in the area from where the projectile reportedly came, were waiting for comments from kremlin officials as well as the military on the situation. we can now show you other footage from the city, but

a warnings you may find it disturbing. the explosions were reported in the city also on monday with local filming huge plumes of smoke and what they described as ongoing battle. russia is denied responsibility saying it is not targeting civilians. and instead claiming that ukraine is positioning forces in apartment buildings used to really interest human shields. how strongly denied that accusation. we heard from a local woman who is currently hiding in a shelter mccord and says it is already the 5th day. we are here in the basement. we are very, very much, very scary. we have small children, elderly people, and frankly speaking, i did a very frightening the biggest mer you from the very flames at that this map on your screen right now shows what's been happening with the red dots highlighting the major cities where fighting is being reported. russia defense

ministry says the lugens people's militia has advanced against the ukranian army by another 3 kilometers beyond monday's front line. as for daniel forces, they reportedly advanced 16 kilometer beyond previous front lines. now here you can see footage from done yet showing the aftermath of shelling the fil civilians are desperately trying to survive in the conflict. so as cities and towns are caught between the front line with battles continuing to rage on oval residents are simply terrified with people's lives at home, still being lost. 8 years after the war corrupted parties corresponded more gazda reports. the sound of war is deafening. across the nearest ah, north west and south war rages. very closely with the friendship launched by

the republic of them yet skis. very much in full swing, the city of mario pool, the heart of the as of sea and the bastion of ukrainian troops and nationalists battalions. it is nearly surrounded, caught between advancing troops of the nets, and russian units spreading out from crimea. ukrainian troops have fallen back and from a distance reeked destruction of villages and towns they once ruled. as you can hear from the sounds of thought hillary the battles he had just just west of than yet still still rage this used to be until hub week ago, a village well beyond the front lines. ukrainian positions went but east of here to woods than if, when this, this battle but gotten the offensive. the ukrainian military abandoned their

positions there. they moved further eastwards, further towards kiev. and that is where they took up positions when the units of the den, yes, people's republic began moving into here. they were met with a fire storm of artillery which, which devastated these village. there were many people here. they are now much fewer. we've heard about 3 people killed in their house, another family that burned up the barrage of shelves and rockets, artillery, sped, few houses and try as they might not. every one escaped the devastation. the tragedy here is that this mother and daughter they, they hid in the basement, right? rise outside the house, the shell impacted a little further away. right above the basement. the irony,

the tragic and sad irony here is that if they had stayed in the house, they might have survived. it's a grizzly scene down there, full of full of blood images that we don't want to show you. only the father survived wounded amid the shilling. he ran for help. last also though, when you were looking for a loaner style surplus, the z brewster consistently were at no cost of only a technician that last me her annually. booker, i nearly connecticut cookies cuz like some bug but a mobile, but valuable. dominique like it was, you love to show at least you, she was more num culture, sir. ah, yes, bullshit over. so it can have bon bonded. yes and artist, those 3 smugly. brazil. 3, right, and i said that that the ad double but the as the door will 3rd thought took which

it is, did that a nearby nikolai of car, which is much bigger. the onslaught was much the same here, terrified civilians, women, children, the elderly hunker down in the school basement, waiting for ukrainian military bombardment to end here in a nearby nickaligha in a school basement on the ground. people are existing in these conditions in the cold without power, without heat. this is all about survival. even though the front lance of have moved on. their own bare leave for fear of yet more shelling, which is claim the lives of, of so many people. already. it's this is too much because they don't even let him bury a person normally any more they bear than by the front door like animals. i'm not

crying for myself and crying for my grandson for my son. my son came out of the basement 3 days ago and still hasn't come back with my data shit. and they are still shelling. of course, it's carrie, but i reassure myself that everything will be fine letters. they destroyed our houses. if there are no windows in our house, any more shells fell right here and she moves. now we have to rebuke and clean everything out of her skirt to your quenches. oh chassis link only is here to the right. now i'm sitting and thinking. if i leave hair, where will i go on now? windows no doors, everything is broken. i do not know where i should go now. only had he been aka lynn, which cut my grand daughter, has had a fever for to day and my house was destroyed. my husband was operated on, his leg was torn through by a shell, cut it on the outskirts one family, apparently decided to upgrade the shelling at who it would be their last decision.

these house sustained a direct impact shell. landed the middle of the house. you couldn't perhaps see the remains of the house. the still smoldering was consumed everything including a family that was in the house at the time their remains have been buried, but we have been unable to verify how many people exactly died here. nevertheless, this she is being repeated across the dorm bus as fighting rages here in the ukrainian military retreats firing back, perhaps in revenge as they flee. so you have accuses moscow of aggression and says around 5000 russian soldiers have been killed or wounded in recent days. with dozens of russian plains and helicopter shot down and about $200.00 tanks destroyed moscow. refute these claims while not disclosing concrete figures,

it says it's been making major advances against the ukrainian military or ukraine's president has also made an impassioned plea to join the e. u. an e u parliamentary meeting. vladimir zalinski said he was stressing he abs willingness and the wake of signing official requests to become part of the block european union. lawmakers and officials gave a standing ovation, but it is important to note that they have not given any assurances much. we're fighting to equal members of euro juggling. today, we're all showing that the union with us will be stronger, and without you, ukraine will be a large slip, proven our strength would proven were at least the same as he proved you are letting us go. should we, could you really, europeans, the life of defeat, down light will defeat darkness, little finish. ah,

ukrainian journalist has also made an emotional plea to britain's prime minister as he held a news conference in poland for, as johnson was asked to impose a no fly zone. over ukraine, but he refused warning. it would lead to the u. k. entering into open combat with russia and korean people are desperately asking for the west to protect our sky. we are asking for the no fly zone. so you are coming to paula. you're not coming to kia, prime minister, you're not come into the because you are a freight because nato is not willing to defend because nature is afraid of. it will worth 3, but it is already started. and this a ukrainian children who are there taking the hit. i see that my family members, that my timbers. i think that to be a grade to the power to rob. this is what is happening. prime minister. well, thank you. thank you very much for questions and and when you talk about the,

the no fly zone, as i said, to volunteer zalinski. i think a couple of times unfortunately the implication of that is the, the, the u. k. and i will be engaged in, in shooting down russian plains. it will be engaging, direct combat with russia. that's not something that we can do that we've, that we've envisaged. meanwhile, the you also fears the sanctions tit for tat will hurt europeans. the president of the european commission, ursula under layin, has admitted that restrictions against russia will hit you economies hard in while the german m. p has heavily criticized the west for provoking the current situation . in ukraine, the alternative for germany party lawmaker added that moscow had spent 2 decades trying to get its message across his mind. hi, hank. this call. it was a fatal mistake to tease ukraine with impossible promises. joining nato and the you

to europe has dragged ukraine into this confrontation. it would be smarter to do so, so that ukraine could develop. it cannot be any one's outspoken. nato membership is a red line for russia. the russian federation will not allow this. it has been talking about it for 20 years. my tells and she says, all members of the o s. c, e, special monitoring mission mission and the done yet the people's republic are, are, are in on their way out. the mission used to monitor and report violation of a cease fire agreement between kiev and militia forces mission set on sunday that it would relocate staff during and due to deteriorating security condition. social media giants, including youtube, tick, tock, and metal have announced that they plan to restrict access to russian media outlets r. t and sputnik in the european union. we have received requests from a number of governments and the e. u to take further steps in relation to rush and state controlled media. given

the exceptional nature of the current situation, we will be restricting access to our tea and sputnik across the e u at this time. what does this mean? r t and sport? nick will no longer be accessible on the platforms within the block. twitter has also said it would put warnings on tweets sharing, links to r t and take steps to significantly reduce the circulation of that content. microsoft is also taking measures in recent days to restrict r t for making money from ads on its platforms. online platforms have been under severe pressure to shut down r t following an announcement by the commission president to band this channel from broadcasting. that taking a crucial steps to turn off the tap before the russians. information manipulation in europe may banning russia to date and sporadic broadcasting into the union. while we interrupt our program right now for some breaking news

from ukraine, we're receiving an unverified video of key of a t v tower. and key of that's been taking fire. or you can see a cloud of black smoke is being seen is, is seen there. that's after rushes defense ministry has announced that it is ready to hit ukrainian security forces, as well as informational and psychological operation center facilities in kiev with high precision weapons. this is in order to suppress information attacks against russia that have been happening for some time. now, and while moscow says it does everything, it can to avoid hitting civilian areas. it has advised citizens to urge to leave the area. and just to remind our viewers here, this is not confirmed footage, but of course we will let you know as soon as possible when we get word. if this is legitimate or not. well, joining me now in the studio is exxon

a boy go to discuss the information war that's going on right now. i mean, it seems like there are a lot of fake videos and fake information going on in the mainstream media. and yet, where are the ones being blocked everywhere? why is that? well, because we are part right in the middle of a major information of war. and i have to tell you that made or analyst and people who work for native for a number of years now have been talking about the so called cognitive warfare, which they saw as an alternative to a food kinetic warfare. many of the recommendations that they have been producing, i now use by the ukrainians. i mean, your heard that warning by the russian defense ministry of the impending attack on the information in psychological center. and keep that center has been responsible for an avalanche of phone terrorism here in russia because of the last couple of days we've been there's been

a huge wave of various alerts of various building social infrastructure, supposedly being bogged, you know, we with the bombs planted there we are talking about shopping malls, kindergarten and schools, etc. and it's not just a campaign of fakes. it's a very organized, it looks like case, but it's not, it's a, it's an organized deliberate information campaign. and there's actually a precise definition of cognitive warfare that not, and nato has been committed to. it is defined as the use of public opinion by foreign forces, with the goal of applying influence on auto nations and destabilizing the population there. and i have to say that the united states has a long history of logical operation. the american army establishes for a center back in the 960 s. and if i think well established now that the ukrainians not only use the recommendations of various age,

actually have specialist made a specialist on the ground, the impact today rushes foreign ministry of sad the behind this avalanche of fakes and you know, phone calls about impending terror attacks our special forces of nato countries. and what do you think it got to this point? because, of course there's, there's, there's been wars in the past that have been connected to russia, but we've never seen this degree of censorship in the western world. so i think we need to keep it in perspective. there is a degree of censorship or against certain degree of censorship, against our channel, against our agencies, which are actually producing verified information about what a fleece people here in moscow think about it that is being blog. so the access of european and american citizens, people are citizens of the world, actually to that kind of information is blocked. meantime, we have a huge operation to infiltrate russian airways to

affect the public opinion in this country through the use of various platforms, through the use of various media, which don't even bother to verify the information. i don't know if you're, if our viewers have seen that. but for example, b, b, c, the other day they ran the footage shot in didn't ask, you know, sustained because of the ukrainian jewelry and they present, presented it as, as a damage to the houses in huck of supposing they done by their rational special forces and there are many, many, many, many, many, many examples of that. so obviously there is a deliberate effort to make sure that the russian government crumbles the under the pressure from its its own population. that's so that's actually being the goal of this cognitive warfare. right. and it's,

it's good the you mentioned that because in the west we're actually being accused of doing that kind of stuff. let's show our viewers statement connected to facebook in germany. right now. you are not independent media. you are a state agency of the russian government under the jurisdiction of putin responsible for war crimes. you do not publish independent reports about the statements of prudence, politicians, your estate integrated power propaganda tool that is published in the west with the intention of broadcasting the will of the putting government in our country. you are permanently opposed to the foundations of the german press code. you can't have any claims against us. so as you can see there, that's some pretty strong rhetoric. what can you talk about? what can you tell us about in terms of how tech giants have been part of this drive to sensor alternative opinions? well, even that will turn it in my opinion and say, you know, it's an opinion from another side in a war. you know, you have to have access to i, so the youtube logo, they are, i want to tell you that, you know, i have a kid

a few years old and he watches youtube on there, you know, certain parental controls settings. but even under those settings, he gets all that stream of ukraine sponsors media about, you know, the russians attacking ukraine, killing civilians there. it's under parental control settings. so it's suggest that nothing is of limit even kids. i mean huge. it wasn't a huge controversy. a few years back at about targeting kids and how it, you know, operate rounds, it's children's operations. now russian kids are allowed to be the target of obese contained while legitimate new sources like ourselves. we cannot even reach the adults, we are bad from reaching the adults. but the ukrainian propaganda and verified in cranium propaganda can be poured onto the russian kid now. and that's if that's if that's ok. i don't know what it's not or has. well, that certainly sounds like

a double standard one. well, that was a really long pass double sender's. but if i can mention one example that i think needs to show delete can show the link between all this avalanche fakes an official politics. i think it was yesterday that the official and way the official representative of the ukraine to the united nations from the party and of the united nations demonstrated some fake suppose of communication between an elijah russian soldier and his mom. it to that appears on some anonymous telegram channel in ukraine, and it took only 4 hours between, you know, the appearance of that. thank you for the and we're presenting it from the podium of the united nation. that's how fast it takes to disseminate this kind of information to things. walks on a bike. ok, thanks

a lot for joining us on the program. offer more news join us again in just about 30 minutes. ah ah ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic, development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully very critical time. time to sit down and talk.
