[000:00:00;00] a russian defense ministry claims documents following during a military operation show ukraine was allegedly developing biologic and weapons with us help. also ahead a these are, you already know that i know the latest attempt to evacuated people from the city of mario pole in southeastern ukraine. once again, ends in failure with local stuff can a blockade on fearing for their lives and your computer will it will include it at the moment. we're going to show a we hear from an ex ukraine army,

par and medic who's returned to one of the non come eastern republics. she claims the armies action shocked her so much during the ongoing war. she quit saying she just wants to be at home. and meal, so my, you chest, me as possible. it just with 247 news from russia is capital city. this is r t good to have you with us today. i'm, you know, neil, let's start by taking a look at the recent developments in ukraine with monday, marking day 12 of the conflict there. the russian defense ministry claims almost all of kias fighter jet, something destroyed. although that's not been confirmed by the ukrainian side. british veterans are reportedly arriving in ukraine to help and foreign legions in

russia. there have been protests in support of the military offensive, as well as on sanction protest and arrest against it. and mexico, italy, and germany. a huge crowds express their support for the ukrainian people, an anger at moscow. as for new international sanctions on russia, the u. k. has urged interpol to exclude the country from the global police body while the us and the you are discussing, ditching russian oil in war, netflix, spotify, tick, tock or among the latest western companies to restrict their services. here the russian ministry of defense as accused ukraine of allegedly developing a biological weapons program, assisted by the u. s. a spokesman claim russian forces had apparently discovered documents concerning the urgent destruction of all traces of the project or the previous if during the special military operation, we discovered evidence of the key of regimes urgent destruction of traces of

a military biological program implemented in ukraine and funded by the u. s. department of defense, we have received documentation from employees of ukrainian biological laboratories concerning the urgent destruction on february 24th of highly dangerous pathogens of plague, anthrax, till arrhythmia. cholera and other deadly diseases on february 24th. or we've been hearing from the spokesperson for the russian minister of defense saying that while they were conducting their operations in ukraine, they came across evidence that proves that there was a biological program being conducted in ukraine with the assistance of the american department of defense. now, among the evidence they found is a whole cache of documents that they currently we're viewing and they are analyzing and will release in the near future. but what we understand amongst those documents is confirmation that these ukrainian bio chemical to borrow trees that were close to russian territory were involved in this biological program. and apparently we

talking here about pathogens of plague, anthrax to low rem year, cholera and other deadly diseases. at the same time, there seems to have been a major panic when the russian operation started in ukraine because there are documents that are dated february, the 24th, that call for the immediate destruction of any kind of stock piles or any kind of evidence that pinpoints and shows that this was happening. now we know that obviously when the russian military operation started, there would have been panic in the pentagon to try and hide any kind of evidence. and one of the documents that has already been released by the russian ministry of defense comes from the ukrainian health ministry. and it explicitly cause on all kinds of biological laboratories in ukraine to mediately get rid of any kind of evidence that they have. so this is the document and before we take a look at it, let me mention that the united states has so far not given any kind of response.

the health ministry of ukraine, due to the martial law that was implemented on february 24th 2022. according to the president's decree, requests to ensure the emergency destruction of biological pathogenic agents that are used to provide control systems for laboratory research. while it's in blayton, violation of international law, and more specifically, it is in violation of article one of the un convention on the prohibition of biological and toxic weapons. now, already back after the 1st world war, there was signed into law the banning of these kind of weapons because the 1st world war did show just how dead the they can be. and this was then reinforced with further banning in 19721993. and what those specifically prohibited was the transfer the manufacturing and the development and stockpiling of such weapons. what we do know, of course,

is that diseases caused by these type of weapons are deadly, and they, they are not limited to national borders. so you're talking about here, something that has an impact on the international community. so certainly it would be a situation where both washington and kids would be in violation of international law . and on this british politician and broadcaster, george galloway believes if the bio weapons claim is verified. it's not only a violation of international law, but also a stark example of us hypocrisy and this crew. this story is of quite devastating proportions. not only is it brazenly legal under international law, particularly the law governing the development of biological weapons. it is exactly the conduct that the united states falsely accused, the iraqi regime of having developed immediately prior to their invasion and

occupation, as it turned out, the well, no iraqi weapons of mass destruction if evidence did survive, if scientists and technicians will testify then it's bang to rights i'm afraid for the united states and should, if there was a free media in the world, should call into very serious question. just how much the u. s. has been using the people of ukraine using them of biological weapons dump, using them as, as a catch pull against the russian bear. and who knows what else might yet be discovered of some more startling claims from russia's m o. d, it's how's claims. a ukrainian security department may be preparing the possible use of radioactive contamination in the heart of region as

a provocation. according to the ministry and notorious ultra right wing battalion mind the reactor on an experimental nuclear installation of hardcopy university. foreign journalists were then brought into the area to blame moscow for the potential fall out of any environmental disaster. or the russian forces took control of other nuclear power plants, including a turn noble to prevent, they say, the possibility of any provocations that could have catastrophic consequences. and alice battled in ukraine continue russia's defense ministry seized on yet scott and lou ganske forces continued to take new areas under their control. that says, russian troops are advancing in different parts of the country. the m. o d claim, since the start of the offense of more than 2000 ukrainian military units, i've been dismantled on to the north east. huge shelling has been seen an arc of a market was hit. you can see the aftermath and this footage jolts report that

a fighter jet was struck in the area. both sides are claiming it was their successful attack. on some unverified footage is purported to show a missile striking the prosecutor's office building on a tv tower. it's also been confirmed that russian forces destroyed moorefield near the city of phoenix in central west ukraine. local authorities relief for the age of a fire of the base high precision long range weapons were reportedly used for the strike and to don bass. these photos are alleged to show the aftermath of ukrainian army shelling of a civilian area in the done yes, region 5 people were reportedly left injured. a local kindergarten was also hit. meanwhile, a huge explosion occurred in lou ganske early this morning. a reportedly at the cities, oil devil, on verified very, we have received shows

a raging fire and huge plains of smoke rising into the sky. local authorities blamed a ukrainian missile strike me unintended less here from r t 's maria phenomena who's in the region. hi maria. some alarming video there. it looks like a pretty major fire. what more is known? yeah, good morning to you. we here in lugens this morning woke up for aren't they working on the ground to fix it? and now we hear from local military authorities that to the cities, oil depot was heat by. they say tortuga, you may say this is a high precision tactical ballistic missile that they say this time was fired from around the city of sarah. and yet some 75 kilometers from where we are now. this is where the frontline lies and indeed, they believe ukraine's armed forces ard behind the attack, and they strongly condemn targeting civilian infrastructure. we haven't heard any common. oh,

any reaction on what happened here in logan's from key of yet will keep you updated on that, of course. and all that comes at the time when civilians in other parts of the country are literally trapped in shelled and war torn, say tis, and it seems that to day they may have another chance to freely evacuate. russia's presence, weidman putting says that russia announces cease fires. tightened 10 am moscow time every way here on the ground and open humanitarian corridors afore innocent civilians to leave from the cities av kiev hod cove and sumi in the countries north and the city of muddy you put on the black sea. and i said another chance because there was another attempt to allow. * us civilians to leave these cities, but it didn't work. it failed because shelly never stopped. and there was information

that people were not allowed to use for many tearing corridors with both sides, both moscow and keep accusing each other of violating a cease fire. but this time, blood more potent says russia informed all it international organizations. and of course keith about this humanitarian afraid and rush is going to use drones, many of them to provide security for civilians. and they really hope that it is going to work this time. meanwhile, here where i am now, lugens republic, a local army is continued to advance as you said, and on some directions, they have already succeeded around like 75 kilometers. and we hear reports from local military authorities that they have already taken control over a like around 60 villages. and here's my report on what happens when the army here

on the ground takes control over at town or a village fighting attacking, advancing, capturing ground. that's how the military moves forward. but what happens next is perhaps even more important clearance. this is what the army has to do in every village. they take control off, they check every street. every house especially destroyed to make sure there are no explosives. a common tactic by the ukrainian armies to mine areas, they retreat from this one is already cleared. but what's also crucial is the careful tacking of those who remain civilians are of course, free to go. but all those affiliated with the military are detained for further investigation. this is what happened to tatiana, a former nurse in the ukraine, in armed forces. that yanna hasn't seen her daughter in 5 days. that's how long it

took for the la guns republic authorities to check and make sure she poses no threat. now the fighting has moved on. i fits on level. sure. sure. why in the salvation army craner planet hold on. you said the rose. we proceed. let us be scared. don't stalls us will re to come when you would you. if sure jojo has done ski chill of your career, was it a shot settled on you said that on a colonel in logan's garmen personally returned shianna to her family. apparently, this is the 1st time this has happened in your book, at least in logan's all prisoners of war. i said to be detained until hostilities are over. seek for new for rebuke, little go dozer, loader, sick door, liberal warner oscars impact video solvable new crystal. clear because the keyword and you build it was additionally the more the church for washer butcher, my new when you look in your gravy, a monument formula, crystal clear because honestly of yours was moses with your computer or live to what you thought. if you put them away, it was

a shame while it was the know don't fuel wooster. very bottom of the mirror, spicy, but they both. not everybody agrees that janice, neighbors say she helped keeps military. so should be in jail. but yeah, i joined ukraine's army back in 2016 to make ends meet. they paid well. now she says she feels betrayed, thawing menial spa solve my, you chased me as possible. it was pretty dark, but no one can appeal. no. who is growing solo? graham asked, was politely tim to get that over and would kill me, sledge it dirt older, and you would get your them in you when you duty to for her, i need to see business williams seem young, but jani is not the 1st member of you phrase military to address her for her uniform colleagues with such calls as days turned to weeks, there heard more frequently. but as the war in this conflict,

weary region rages on, it seems such voices are not always heard. murray phenomena r t from the look on gray public. on the latest the tend to if i could with civilians comes after the red cross said all previous efforts ended in failure. as the result advanced, more than 200000, remained trapped in the city of marie apo. what's more, some reports claim a group of fighters from the neo nazis off battalion. open fire on the civilians. various sources claim only several dozen people manage their fleet. the city, some like the man we're about to hear from did it on foot amid heartbreaking tragic though motors be removed. fewer than younger than youth within you is in your group. who? oh, where did the cartoon she, who really for the,

for us now. that killer shall prove whom you as a firmer he would have told her you for her. yeah. people are also waiting for evacuation rates, a train station in laval, hunt, and up pro patrol square. they've been forced to wait and choose for days on agreement to move people out via green car doors was reached during a 2nd round. a peace talks between russia and ukraine. but both sides are not blaming each other for a break done in the arrangements and a number of times local still have to stay in their basements without essentials, like food and water. people are experiencing the spur, panic and asking soldiers for rescue. but their police are seemingly going on answered please you this pretty bad. you got a daughter will you credit? so i just recall cindy. got for you,

isn't it a part of our? yeah, i know some ukrainian parents also say their children were evacuated the safety although they haven't managed to see them since a lot with now some ukrainians have managed to reach the u using either bus car or by foot

with many people being unable to hold by tears at having to leave their home and behind. for now it's germany, which has become the main hub for refugees with countries like poland, also offering assistance for, but not every european states seems to have their arms open quite as wide france and the u. k. are currently trading barbs over you should look after those currently stuck at the french port of kelly. russian humanitarian aid has continued heading to those needs in ukraine. convoys packed with food has arrived in the city of her son after it was taken by russian forces. but as her senior correspondent ross goes to report, some ukrainian nationalists reportedly being trying to intimidate those accepting help in all these areas now under the control of russian forces and where humanitarian aid is being delivered. we see the same scene being repeated, and that is hundreds,

thousands of people queuing at distribution points for desperately needed food and, and always a handful of spoilers appear most often with, with mobile phones to film what they're doing. they'll stand aaron and shout insults a brush and troops or the masses cuing for desperately needed food. they then upload that footage to social media or friendly western media outlets to create the impression that ukrainians against russian aid when it couldn't be further from the truth. across liberated areas of ukraine, convoys of russian aid, food and essentials, are an increasingly common sight. hundreds of tons have been loaded and sent to ukrainian cities and communities on the verge of starvation. but some people, but rather she thousands starve and cues that stretch for hundreds of meters. you'll find them holding phones in people's faces. they are few in number,

but aggressive and loud. i googled this is tame compared to what other ukranian nationalists the saying they want to hunt down any one starving or not. who takes baggy needed food from the russian convoys don't. i'm finding out toward you more, not hulu. they do those. the kinds wallader gives a form to them. buick machine. me but don't, would you? so i mean there's been lots of other hormone to them because of all of them get healing. they are a tiny minority, the nationalists said, neo nazis, but they have enormous sway years of murder, violence, bullying, and intimidation. have frightened people to the cool few dare to stand up to them, but judge for yourself for every 1000 people. good, welcome, rush, an aid. only

a handful appeared to insult and scream. you could, you was good that, jim. i want to say all of the citizens of hers and that i wish them health. i want to thank you. we are very happy and grateful. oh sir, co on us at the but on the shackle, the street, we have a supermarket nearby. it's empty. there is nothing in the store except the sweet some. there is a shop next to us. i stood in line there to buy 2 slices of cheese and a pack of butter. i gave 197 hiena. this are and thinkable prices. they're like more doors. there's a crazy q for bread. people cannot buy bread and rushes into the d. nuts application of ukraine has already begun at bull likely be an intense process given how grave the security threat ease, less kilometers from where aid workers were handing out food. russian forces detained a man with explosives, firearms, and orders ridiculous. what is your rank?

what branch of the armed forces, the 124th territorial defense brigade, head of military civilian cooperation. the threat of terrorist attacks, bombings and subterfuge will likely grow as nationalists and neo nazis hunker down and go into hiding. but for now, it remains a tough balancing act for russia, juggling the needs of the people and their good will while fulfilling its go. the demilitarization and d nuts application of ukraine, or i'd gas div from here, son, you grade. ukraine's president vladimir zalinski has said the failure of the west to be tough enough towards russian the past led to the current conflict. so while it is on a test, the audacity of the aggressor is a clear signal to the west that sanctions against russia are not enough. now, because they didn't understand venue did not feel it. they did not see that the world was really decisive. really seeks to stop the war. you will not hide from

this reality. you will not hide from new murders in ukraine, with european ministers of foreign affairs will hold a meeting over the war in ukraine today and discuss the latest actions they intend to take against russia. earlier the british home secretary said he will try to have moscow excluded from the global police body interval that you on you are mulling, putting a stop to buying the countries oil according to the us secretary of state. while france is considering freezing the assets of more than 500 people, allegedly some linked to the kremlin, on the 12th day of the conflict in ukraine, a 3rd of peace talks between the warring sides is true to be held monday. although the signs are not all that promising, both sides claimed to have core principles they will compromise on. and both are sticking to their positions. mean off just days ago, a member of the team involved in those negotiations with russia was found dead in

kiev. shortly after the 2nd round of talks. it's still unclear what happens now. the ukraine is claimed he was a russian agent. some m p 's have alleged the nice korea was shot and killed by ukraine security services. prior to his death, the head of the agency had this warning for politicians. grass, i would like to say directly to the deputies of the opposition platform for life. if you wander around our checkpoints, they will simply kill you, they're stay at home. also in the last few days, an opposition politician is reported to have been placed on an international wanted list by the current government charged with treason. the parliamentary deputy in question said he left the country 2 months ago, fleeing political repression, with the latest peace talks taking place today. political analysts, dmitri babbage says, and negotiated settlement is the only way out of the crisis, but it may take time. a lot of cold steel associated with the stocks because it

is absurd. know that most radio co, ukrainian nation and no one would think it possible just to go, you know, 11 years ago now i would imagine more, you know, on the green and no one would imagine that your region would be each other. the west may be a lot of lining. these are also saying that this is kind of depends on the model. it is your current and that's so so all of that we went with any settlement. there is no doubt about that. the problem with that, with the people that the motion made things wrong. and finally, if you've been struggling at all finding our t on air and online amidst the conflicts, we've got a handy guy to cover all that. it's laid, it's on our side

r t dot com slash where to watch not includes how to junior satellite receiver to reach a signal we are available in europe, africa, latin america, and elsewhere across the globe that way this by currently being banned by the e. u. u. k. major tech companies, if you're seeking to keep on watching us and we hope you will, we'll make sure you can and others where we leave the news update for now i stay close. there was more programs get going and moments i'm you know, the oh, seem wrong. i just don't hold any you want to shape

out disdain because the attitude and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. good and bad drink shaped bankers and those with theirs sinks. we dare to ask

ah, ah hello and welcome to cross stock. were all things we considered on peter labelle. russia's special military operation and ukraine continues. this is widely agreed upon beyond that media reporting on this conflict could not be more polarized and politicized in the west, this conflict is black and white. good versus evil. no context is provided, which of course is done on purpose. ah, to discuss these issues and more, i'm joined by my guess, george samuel in budapest. he's a podcast or at the goggle which can be found on youtube and locals. and here in moscow, we have to meet with bob and she is

a political analyst and editor at you know, us, me internet media project or a general cross stock rolls in effect. that means you can jump in any time you want . and i always appreciate it. well, it's our, our worth, george. george obviously are. all of us are watching events unfold in ukraine very carefully. i'm watching western media and looking at russian media. and i couldn't, you couldn't get to did more different stories that are being reported, particularly in western media. and there is no context where this conflict came from or was the way this conflict is being played out and how could possibly end. because western media is turned it into an emotional event, not an analytical event. go ahead george. yes, that's right. there is no context and we get nothing. it's all
