for mm ah, you plane to president sides martial law to temporarily ban 11 opposition parties for the suppose it pro russian stands about he's warned. vladimir valencia move illegitimate civilians in the next town are trapped in the destroyed hospital after ukrainian troops, allegedly open fire at it from a tank. or should we have been sitting in the basement for more than 2 weeks? i have even lost track of what date is the fighters. we're all based here on the 2nd on 3rd force and conducted an active hostilities from the hospitals territory. we had about 400 civilians in the basement. here the fighters knew this and 100 hit the face of peter to protest is a shipping of weapon from there to ukraine, under the guise of humanitarian aid. ah

hello and welcome to our international on policy clear. but coming to life on the anti headquarters here in moscow, it's a pleasure to have you the 1st, let's get through developments around the ukraine conflict. president vladimir zalinski has extended martial law for another 50 days and temporarily band 11 opposition parties claiming their hold pro russian positions. china's deputy foreign minister, meanwhile, says punitive measures against moscow are counter productive and only add fuel to the fire, hurting ordinary people and disrupting the global economy for you and there's, there's a shortage of supplies including food, water medicines, in the cities of mario full and to me, russia has said more than 3600 tons of humanitarian aid to ukraine. since the start

of the common conflict that says cube officials say they have agreed, 7 escape routes with the kremlin. moscow evacuation of civilians is ongoing. although ukraine is not cooperating fully on the issues, question forces have also destroyed a fuel storage based supply, ukrainian ahmed vehicles in the south of the country, as well as the trading center for foreign mercenaries in northern ukraine. aborts are coming from ukraine's 2nd largest, that he had cove that at least one person was killed and 11 were wounded. in the shilling of a regional institute rescue is now searching for survivors. local authorities accused russia of committing the attack. huck of official also reported that another and major russian shedding incident has left 2 people dead, including a 9 year old child. there hasn't been an immediate comment from the russian defense ministry on the matter. more than 3000000 people have fled ukraine since the start of the conflict with the 2000000 having arrived in neighboring poland,

thousands of refugees have been waiting and choose to receive a local id number to allow them to work and get the medical care for the next 18 months, hundreds of thousands of others have gone to hungary, vac mel dover, and remain yet overwhelming a range of public services. people say they confir turn because it is not safe. i don't know, lucian, my house is still there, but it's not to be there. people haven't come out of the basement for a day. there are also some people who haven't come out since the fighting began in t f. we heard a lot of shooting in our region, it was quieter, but i know that my parents couldn't leave since the beginning. so that's why i realized that we need to evacuate not to end up in the same situation as my parents who now can't believe it's horrible. as i mentioned earlier, ukraine's president has cited martial law to suspend 11 opposition parties. he claims have progressed instances. one of the biggest parties to be temporarily

banned, says the move is simply an illegal power grab. this decision has no legitimate grounds. all accusations are made up by the government to justify their inadequate actions. the only explanation for this move by the authorities as an illegal political take over and a bad faith political fight against their main opponent. all well, the explanation was actually easy to predict. coming from the president, vol, dimmers, lensky, he has criticized these parties for ties with russia. ties with the aggressor as key of his constantly been saying, and pretty much he labeled the parties as traitors. but you do have to bear in mind that the list is very long, almost a dozen, and on that list, there's the 2nd strongest political force and the parliament. i mean, it has been elected by a large number of people. then besides this, again on that list, there are famous political brands such as, for instance,

the socialist party. and you see if this kind of cracked down occurred anywhere else around the world, perhaps you'd hear a hail storm of critical remarks from western politicians. this time around though this crackdown, i guess that's the only way you can call it on opposition. parties has fallen on deaf ears. and this is something that's been pointed out by politicians here in russia. europe, for its part, is hiding its head in the sand. we, we're right to leave the european council. what is the point of this organisation if it does not fulfil its main task? when it stands aside while observing obvious violations of ukrainian citizens writes, zelinski has finally figured out the intricacies of true democracy. the most democratic president in modern ukraine has taken another step towards western ideals of democracy. if i'm right, this isn't the 1st time that he has been accused of silencing the opposition as

well. let me remind you of a few things. for example, after the 2014 qu on my don as it is being called here in russia, the communist party was banned altogether from the cranium political spectrum. however, before that, it east, when seats and the parliament every time, there was a general election. we could also remember how president war dumars lensky, only several months ago, banned as many as a media organizations, including tv stations that had to go on there at that time. europe's top diplomat joseph bore l said that protecting ukraine from his information shouldn't come a be expensive freedom of press and freedom of expression. so at that time the european officials couldn't stay silent. this time around though, the situation is quite different and it's easy to guess why. on

the next for public residents are being hit by indiscriminate ukrainian nationalists shilling as the forces were, treat the troops allegedly open fire as patients hid in the hospital basement with fighting ranging around the area. there are no reports of injury so far. we spoke to people still trapped in the damage building was children who have been sitting in this basement for more than 2 weeks. i have even lost track of what day it is. fresh and trips have finally come to help us and manage, at least to talk to my sister yesterday is just genocide. it's lawlessness. they say glory to ukraine. i have nothing to thank them for offering as everything burned down. i don't know how to go on living like this. i don't know who will help us. thank god, we're alive. lou, i'm a trauma told us, there is a lot of work here and we work in unsanitary conditions. the fighters were all

based here on the 2nd on 3rd force and conducted an act of hostilities from the hospitals territory. we had about 400 civilians in the basement here. the fighters knew this. the summer i have acute pancreatitis was very hard here. i went down to the basement only when the donato troops came. we slept on the floor. then when a tank opened, fired us, the ukrainian soldiers had enough hypocrisy to come and ask how we are here. if we are still alive and only then, we went down to the basement kids government as being criticized for using victims . that it apparently bummed to try and raise westman sympathy over the horrors of war. ukraine's foreign ministry use these images taken by russian photographer in dennis. but all evidence suggests it was actually a ukrainian missile strike on a residential area. a warning you may find the falling video of the off to meth, disturbing. the,

the the 23 civilians were reported killed and dozens wounded, including children. and this all was said to be carrying cluster munitions which are prohibited by international law. must have you in representative pointed out that the torture missile apparently deployed is not used by russian forces. ukraine denies committing the attack. american war correspondent, patrick lancaster, witness the immediate aftermath of the attack near his apartment. he says there is no doubt that this was another deliberate war, crime on unarmed civilians by ukraine's forces. and that it will happen again. i got to the location where the coach grew less than 10 minutes after and hit because

the impact location was about 200 meters from my apartment. and i immediately went there and i witness to be dozens of civilian, also lost their lives and countless more injured. and there's no question that this was an attack on the civilian population of done yes, by great forces. it's not the 1st time and it wasn't the last on just one day after mackenzie is hit by another ukrainian rock is. there is no doubt that ukraine is targeting the civilian populations of the republics. there's no ifs, ands or buts about it. or direct attacks on the civilian population? well, they're trying to bring down the credibility of anyone that might report the war crimes that they have been committed by them trying to say,

you know, this is way it was. this is what happened with just pure wise on their part. i mean this is on an imaginable that a government can attack civilians like this and then say it was not take responsibility for it. but this is what's happening in this is the 1st or the last time they're going to be doing refugees from me and the city of my real people have been framed to the russian town of tango. log about a 100 kilometers to the east they, they've been receiving safe accommodations. but of course to worry about relative that they had to leave behind us and whiskers are trying to do everything to help the refugees, distribution, food and water, and helping transport their belongings. one woman shared her heartbreaking story. when you're doing the bombing caused the concrete slab to come lose and fall into my son. his father was also there, but it wasn't even pulled out of the wreckage. my son was screaming for 5 hours.

neighbors got him out of there and brought him to the hospital. there is no way to reach him and i don't know how to transport my son, he definitely can't walk on his own. they said also that he had something wrong with his hands. i don't know whether he can, pres, barton or not. i'm afraid to imagine what will happen if he doesn't undergo surgery . the look and the public has now taken control of practically, it's whole territory with residents starting to be billed. they live after 8 years of ukrainian bombing ortiz, maria phenomena took a train that is finally running again to the capital of the republic. where it's a railway station in the town of that bill, in the logan's people's republic. where for the 1st time in 8 years, this suburban train is living today for the capital city also named lugens. it was impossible before these journey because key of force is in control here since 2014

so and still see lugens because occupied territory. there were not many connections with that part of the republic, but today it is possible define raise for one week before that big fell under the control of the republican forces. and now it's one territory. novato. ah, only days with a passport issued by little guns, people's republic and clearings from local authorities are allowed on board for security reasons. of course that i may ask has become a hug for civilians please. the front line air is this train is a good option for them to go to look on the other passengers here to you. do them please? i am coming home now. i was visiting and the circumstances made me stay for longer and happy. of course that the train is now operational, but the train should go further. the connection between the towns is a good thing. from alex,

i'm heading to lou ganske and then further on to my mother, i'm pleasantly surprised by this. don't you have a passport? don't you? i do here it is a passport of the logan's people's republic. frightening it was indeed in store rebels. the once was a really intense shelley with $26.00 question roubles, which is around 20 u. s. benson and yes, russian rebels are separate here, but i can also pay with your grades are still being used to all they're just 80 kilometers apart. missed that i bisk and logan's have been like 2 different countries with different time zones. currencies, flags, tv channels, mobile services, but not any more. this train departed at 7 am moscow time one hour ahead of key. if

it's the same time in logan's, this train make 6 stops before it arrives in logan's. today it's a test trip, so not many passengers, but the authorities say that the train will now run daily. with the army advancing and taken control of more towns, the trains buses restored roads and bridges will reunite these long separated areas . rafe, in ocean r. r t from that i based logan's train. sasha has sent more than 3600 tons of humanitarian aid to ukraine. the latest batch of more than $75.00 tons of food and other essentially was delivered to the southern city of hast on it, come. you've been warned about the communitarian situation in parts of the country . however, some states appear to be using the cover of humanitarian aid to send weapons to ukraine. that's what civilian a port workers in the italian city of pisa. accuse the government of trying to do a port employees refused to load a flight with alleged military congo and italian trade union as even protested

against the flight thing the public was being deceived. the cargo was reportedly to go to nature basis in poland and then be shipped to neighboring ukraine. a port staffs at the arms were destined for king of near ne battalion some workers at the airport where we are pieces. galileo galilee civil airport called his saying that they had been asked to load a civilian humanitarian aid flight, but they realized that it was combat material. it was weapons. they participated in the czar battalion, these weapons paid for with our money. and up in the hands of nazis, it's necessary to make that clear. we're in the square because we're against providing weapons to ukraine. this doesn't mean that we're not in solidarity with the ukrainian people, but we're convinced that providing weapons prolonged the war and violates our italian constitution and our laws. italy's move comes as dozens of countries officially send military assistance to ukraine. the nations coming from the us. it

includes anti a croft and anti tank systems, as well as other weapons in total worth $800000000.00. the head of an italian political party told us that if confirmed the country's military shipment violates its constitution, they would come in the italian parliament discussed sending military aid and rejected. that idea of our country's coming to you in western pressure is not respecting our fundamental laws in our constitution. article 11 explicitly states that the italian republic repudiate war, so by sending weapons to other countries, we break the rules laid out in our constitution. the overwhelming majority of people is against sending weapons and military equipment to ukraine. and people understand that in this way, italian officials are fueling the conflict to governments across europe do not accept people's demands. they only carry out some formalities to pretend that they respect the long. we really hope that the government changes approach and chooses policies, the respect,

the real wishes of the people. don't eat meat to bit russia. that's the surprising message from germany's food minister, who just happens to also be vegetarian. germans have been posting footage of empty shelves as consumers panic by fearing shortages from ukraine and russia. essential like sugar, cooking oil and flour, reportedly in short supply. the countries of food chief insist, it's all part of a cunning plan. by, of course moscow. we have to buy responsibly and only what we need. no one should hold anything at home. no toilet paper, no sunflower oil, otherwise prices will skyrocket. peyton's insidious strategy is that there is a shortage of products and he needs photos of empty shelves. i advise you not to unnecessarily weaponized his propaganda. despite the fact that i'm a vegetarian, i will not preach that everyone should switch to vegetarianism. but let's put it this way, eating less meat would be a contribution against mr. newton. it comes off to the even moved most favored

nation status for russian goods, pushing them on a par with those made by iran or north korea. they have already been a series of protests against solving prices and europe. increased 100. the farmers took to the streets of athens on friday to protest against drastically winding fuel and fertilize the prices connected with the use sanctions against russia. they say they production costs are now so high that they're having to significantly cut back their businesses. the greek government has a way to reduce the sales tax from socializes that almost half and is often other support measures that farmers say the help is not enough. research fell at the university of hamburg citizens or paying the heaviest price for you. leaders get it was the european union that imposed sanctions and was a european union. and that though the most favored nation status, that is an illegal act under international law. they did it anyway. and now we,

the citizens of europe and germany. we have to sacrifice their responsibility for their mistakes. many characters in germany already have closed due to the rising prices. and if we see mat unemployment, they want to put the blame on russians is all russians fault. but the truth is, and everyone sees that it's germans and europeans, politicians for, for imposing this ridiculous and legal factions. and people might even stop to death in relatively prosperous europe. but certainly we'll see people in poor across the world like, and africa who are already suffering from food insecurity. be affected by this. i mean, this is just ridiculous. the government has to respond to the needs of the people and not just blame everyone to have human needs, like being warm at home for, you know, helping prove you. this is ridiculous and this has to stop. and if they don't put a stop to it themselves,

then i'm sure that people will at the coming elections. and memorial to service soldiers has been vandalized with a key f battalions. nazi logo in the greek capital, vandal spray painted the infamous as of battalions, wolf, fungus, fine, on a monument to soviet soldiers who died liberating greece from hitches germany in world war 2. the german nazi parties, swastika variant, has been adopted by the ukraine's far right. the monument has been kid of the graffiti, and dozens of weeks gathered with large banners to show the disgust laying flowers at the sight. the russian embassy in athens has described the incident as an unacceptable act of vandalism and quote, on the government to take action to punish those behind what happened. a greek diplomat and form ambassador told us he's worried by support for ukrainian ultra nationalists in his country. this is said that that is highly of all that should be on there by everybody. and it also shows us that the you thing

and fascist, have put their feet into wish this is something that's just going sure. all of us are very happy from what point of view that i see t not see. and that's the fastest demonstrations being prepared to protest against this atrocious act, which i actually find horrible. and i did not expect that this could be done by leaks. so perhaps some of the refugees that i've been traded into from the, from the ukraine. bye. be supporters. busy the. busy sheets, i also liked very much the statements of the russian embassy, and i think that the government should do everything possible to find perpetrators,

such as any probe suggests. the u. s. hasn't just been supplying ukraine with weapons since it began. shilling the don best in 2014, but an investigation by yahoo! news, alleges the c. i a has also been secretly training specialized, ukrainian military units all the time. the report which the ca has yet to comment on came at the agencies opposite, has taught the counterparts the best skills for warfare ortiz caleb malpass, reports ca paramilitary forces have also been preparing them for special operations against quote, russia and it's separatist allies. we tried to really focus on operational planning than really hard military skills like long res marksmanship, not just the capacity to do it, but to know how to do it on the battlefield. our job is to have an exponential impact. it's not to get our badge for shooting

a russian or something. i think the training really paid off the ca, ukraine program was kept secret for 8 years. some of those involved in setting it up worried about what might happen if it was made public. i don't know how we didn't get anybody injured, to be honest, but the covert nature of the mission ensure deniability us officials wouldn't want to say we just had a cia officer killed by a russian in ukraine. that will put the president to the white house in a very bad position. they feared that public knowledge of the program could lead to an unpredictable escalation in the crisis. everything we did in ukraine had a chance to be misinterpreted and asking the tensions how far can you go with existing covert action authorities? if god forbid they shot some russians, is that a problem? do you need special authorities for that? despite concerns, the program went on for years, the cia trained groups of radicals and preparation for conflict, a proxy war with moscow. it seems they were following the old adage,

if you want peace, prepare for war. of course with the opposite effect. the united states age ukraine and her people so that we can fight rush over there and we don't have to fight russia here. were waging a proxy war against russia, and rightly so, time to face up to what that implies. because prudent in the russians are a lot weaker and the ukrainians a lot stronger than they look. remember, the russians invaded afghanistan back in 1980. it didn't end well for the russians. 8 years, the war during which some 40000 people were killed, mostly civilians. so this was a very serious, ongoing conflict, very nasty, very bloody on the lake and the people who are now a so in such anguish about ukrainian lives,

they didn't say anything. it's not exactly a surprise. we knew this was over a training program involving the pentagon. the cia phos is something new starting the americans were calculating that they couldn't lose, which is why they were egging ukraine on. encouraging this ukraine is always been useful to washing them as a battering ram to use against russia. despite the words of concern currently echoing through western media, the fact themselves speak volumes. the united states has been planning to use ukraine as a bloody battlefield against russia for years, despite any costs necessary. caleb martin, r. t. new york. well, that brings us to the end of our bulletin. i'm policy. thank you so much for joining us with

with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development only personally and

going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk with woo. no one. no, sir, no, not admiral. who are you? no, no. what door? more shrill than what they should end up unit 73. 1 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program that the world had ever known.

i mean, it all was signed. on february, the 122015, it was meant to end military conflicts in ukraine between government forces and don bass militia groups. the agreement stipulated that both sides would withdraw heavy weapons to an equal distance from the contact line. this left several 100 settlements trapped between opposing forces. local civilians became unwitting witnesses to and victims of the continuing civil war. thousands of people still live in small towns and villages that have become the new front line. they call this area the grey zone a
