ah, a with just information that fact was witnessed in the city of boucher and the key of region following withdrawal of the russian troops under russia's foreign minister slams disturbing footage from boucher as a dis information attack. the images have prompted the evan many western countries to blame russian forces for the mass killing of civilians. that's as the u. k. blocked russians call for un security council meeting on the incident. ukrainian media pulls its own fake news report which blame to russia for the gruesome killing of a woman whose body was found with a swastika carved in her stomach and a ukrainian nationalist strong hope. we speak to the american journalist to expose

the story happened in the basement of tooth number 25 with. busy score grey, you forces this woman had been brain tortured and strangled to death. and more disturbing footage emerges from ukraine, apparently showing the execution of an injured russian soldiers that says we hear 1st hand accounts from russian soldiers describing their ordeal in captivity. people were being beaten, they didn't, maybe scream, they howled, it just doesn't sound human. they beat one soldier all night. and in the morning they said, you even know that you slept with the corpse. ah, 6 am here in the russian capital and you're watching our to international. i'm your host donald quarter. welcome to the program. a disinformation war. that's the

assessment from the russian foreign minister of footage that's emerged from the ukranian town of butcher, which shows disturbing images of dead bodies of civilians lying in the streets with others piled and mass graves. ukraine's defense ministry says the killings were perpetrated by russian troops and a warning may find the images were about to show you a bit disturbing. these images are from the town of butcher, which have circulated throughout various media outlets as journalists gained access, days after ukrainian forces entered the area in wake of a russian military withdrawal. they apparently show the burned bodies of a family, including children. the images have not been independently verified, but g. f is accusing russian soldiers of being responsible, commenting on the boots killings foreign minister surrogate live. rob said the stories of disinformation attackers and has an anti russian agenda aimed at western

audience. this information attack was witnessed in the city of boucher and the key of region. following the withdrawal of the russian troops, our troops withdrew from the area and accordance with the plans and previously reached agreements. several days later, there was a staging this now being spread across the media and social platforms by ukraine and its western patrons. with russian forces foot, he retreated from the city on the 30th of march. on the 31st to march, the cities now made a statement saying everything was in order. in 2 days later we saw that stage footage from the streets of boucher which they now are attempting to use for anti russian purposes. a couple of weeks ago, there were attempts to misrepresent the situation and one of maria polls maternity hospitals has a crime committed by the russian troops. the lights became clear, those attempts had been made to cause a provocation. the materials presented were later exposed as fights. the

international community was quick to lay the blame for the mass killings of civilians on russia before any investigation had even taken place. but the u. s. saying it will call to suspend russia from the un human rights council. earlier french president emanuel macro on said, russian forces are responsible and that moscow will have to quote, answer for its crimes. and while british and us officials have called for an investigation by the international criminal court, the u. k. has blocked russia's call for an urgent un security council meeting on monday, commenting on the decision russia's ambassador to the un again said the butcher killings were a staged provocation by key f. from the very beginning, it has been clear that this is nothing else, but yet another stage pro occasion aim to discrediting and dixon realizing of the russian military and leveling political rational pressure on russia. i think that's the truth of what happened in which it will reveal. so there is

a ambassador certainly did not hold anything back during that press conference. and he specifically went on to note a number of the claims that are being made that are being spread all across social media right now. and how they simply don't line up with the facts. he referred to this as a false live operation. he specifically noted that the mayor of boucher was smiling and happy and talking about how the city was re i russian forces just a few days before mentioned mentioning nothing about any sort of civilian casualties. and he then went on to take a look at the videos that are being posted across social media to know how they simply do not line up with the world in which we saw that the russian troops were there in boucher for weeks that they were there with the civilians of the civilians were allowed to walk freely. now he also noted that all of these statements that he was making that he wanted to be making them before the united nations security

council. however, he noted that it was the u. k. that claim men came in and blocked that though, and he referred to that action as unprecedented. take a listen to what he had to say. i'm president. that unbelievable, unsinkable that we were denied the security council meeting that requested these behaviors very lucrative and reviews through it today of the worst to ukrainian people. while blocking the discussion on which you a clear cut through occasionally, english plastic gibber style that is going to have is implications for international peace and security the worst. and delegations rushed to cuz i mean a security council meeting on the educational gilson little guys on some time ago sometime ago. so you can see where the video play on. it is not as important to know that the united states is saying that it will go before the un general assembly and call for russia to be kicked out of the human rights council. of

course, russia is noted that there are a number of accounts of hypocrisy regarding the u. s. and its actions here. however, moscow is still saying that it is calling for that un security council meeting. and it hopes that it will be an option at some point in the future. journalist and author, daniel lazar shared his perspectives with me on the you case move and on the media coverage of the issue. they don't want a, i re read all round dispassionate analysis what's going on in that city. they want to presented as one sided lee as possible. and so therefore a hearing in which, in which you russia, you know, gets, gets a chance to make use known. that's the last thing they want. the western media doesn't want to present anything that is, has it all regarding the ukrainian side and wants to put all the blame on russia.

the western mainstream media has signed on quite enthusiastically to the disinformation war. that there governments are running. in fact, the london guardian recently ran an article, worrying that russia was winning the information war. and that the british should, should try harder for the airport. busy busy to know to us, to take away the victory from russia. so that's depressive. signing on presenting extremely one sided view of the whole conflict and and they are really jumping on this issue like crazy. creating media has tried and apparently failed to, to pin the blame on moscow for the gruesome killing of a woman in the city of mario pal, located and need done yet. people's republic. the victims, brutally mutilated body with a swastika carved into her stomach was found by russian lead troops after they pushed the neo nazi as a battalion from a civilian building a week ago. a warning you may find the following images disturbing. picking up the

story from a ukrainian media outlet, president zalinski is advisor posted the news on social media. his posts showed the image of the victim and claimed that she was killed in gusto mill in the key of region. the advisor then updated the description to say the atrocity possibly took place murray opal before deleting his own post altogether. shortly afterwards, ukrainian media admitted that they got the details wrong and pulled their own reports. the scene of the killing and mario ball last week has since been visited by international journalists, including those from r t. again, the following footage is disturbing either. so somehow it asked as idiom. and this in fact is the quote of a woman by the look of it she was raped and a swastika was carved into his stomach the but he's been here for quite some time from now they cannot get out and very it because there are a lot of courses throughout the city, this corpse was discovered relatively recently, soon,

and we will trust for the information we would taken out of here at the american journalist, patrick lancaster, who was the 1st to break the disturbing story from the city, shared his views on the program, earlier i think it's just the normal anti russian propaganda from the grain. it's really just the way it is blamed inside blaming the other side. but we know it for a fact that this happened in the basin of number 25, which was used. busy as a base for ukrainian force, we're going through building to build and just seeing everything decimated, just talking to the local, talking to some of the d p. r. mobilization soldiers, one of them who happened to show us this basement of this school school number 25. busy busy he took it down, we could see many amounts of cranium uniforms and patches and flags

and the huge dash of weapons which in the purchase we've heard. unfortunately we found this. busy partially covered actually with uniform uniforms as well. her stomach wage had a swastika just being shot from hard to tell what it was, carved on, painted or no blood was needed. if you could see what had happened there this woman had been tortured and strangled. this is not the 1st time we've seen allegations of fake news emerging amid the ukraine conflict. multiple stories have circulated in the media over the last month, only to be later debunked. earlier i took a closer look at some of those stories, shock and outrage among western audiences after images of a massacre in

a small ukrainian town near keith, called boucher many of grab their pitchforks and torches, blaming russia, but few have stopped to ask, how do i know what i'm being told is true since so far. the only source is keith's seen much of zuba w world is already seen many wool crimes at different times on different constant stuff, but it's time to do everything possible to make the war crimes with the russian military loss manifestation of such evil on earth. all right and wrong kill 2 such crimes will be included in the special book of torture, as will be found and punished. general camilla bulge, it's really the job of journalists to examine, scrutinize and double check the reliability of their sources. instead, the mainstream media has been acting more like the ukranian governments, p r team. take a look at this segment from cbs. margaret brennan, of cbs admits that zalinski his team handed her some photos videos, and she's now going to broadcast them on tv with 0 independent corroboration,

just openly purveying a foreign countries war propaganda. this is what's considered real journalism in the u. s. there were even reports that foreign journalists weren't allowed into the town on the 3rd of april. on top of that key of has time and time again demonstrated, it's probably the last government whose word you want to take at face value when it comes to horror stories. remember snake island latimer zalinski claimed ukrainian troops valiantly fought to the last soldier defending it than us more will. 13 ukrainian defends were killed in russian bombardment on thursday. all of the buddha gods died heroically. they did not surrender. they will be award to the title of hero of ukraine post humorously. aside from the fact that there weren't 13 but 82 ukrainian soldiers on the island, they didn't die fighting the russians either. they surrendered and were safely returned to their families through a prisoner exchange. oops, clearly that mistake wasn't embarrassing enough though, since zalinski was pretty quickly added again. several days later he claimed russians had bombed

a memorial to the 10s of thousands of jews who were massacred in bobbin yard during the 2nd world war to the world. what is the point of saying never again for a to years. if the world stay silent when a bomb drops on the same site of bob and jo, at least 5 killed history repeating, in addition to zalinski is naming and shaming those who didn't immediately point the finger at russia turns out that story was fake as well. one day later and israeli war correspondent visited the site and saw a completely different picture. the bobby or memorial site was neither destroyed nor damaged. after touring over the big site, i can report to certainty that no monument was damaged and no wall miss or shell hid the area. it's not clear whether zelinski was lying or if he really believed what he was told. the main thing is though, it ended up being yet another fake story put forward by key f. there's also the chernobyl nuclear power plant, which the lensky wrongly accused russia of bombing. needless to say,

there was no lack of scary projections of another atomic disaster in europe either chill, normally we will hold in that room low. i'll in as you closes as did through molly, out on the side who was facing. so nimble bronchitis. and when you fully meet the teacher, when you fill in the nieces as a hoping, so after all these ukranian tall tales about a legit russian crimes, one after another turning out to be fake. should we really just take his word for it when it comes to boucher nor disturbing footage, apparently showing injured russian soldiers being executed by ukrainians has emerged online. we can show you the full video because of its violent content. but the footage does show multiple soldiers lying in the road in a pool of blood. one of them appears to be alive, but as than shot and killed, at least one dead soldier has his hands tied behind his back and appears to have been shot in the head. separately we heard from russian soldiers who had been held

us prisoners in ukraine, and they told us about their ordeal while in captivity. be the beautiful so they make me constantly without even asking questions. who was just non stop screaming. my lack of food, people were being beaten, they didn't even scream, they howled. it just doesn't sound human. i've heard a man's ribs break, his alms break. as civilian was watching, brushing news on his phone. he was taken there as 71 year old man with diabetes. he was lying there, his hands bandaged. they were women there also. the look was who, who says in the lives under who can they tied hands and feet and were beaten them? i had a beard, and their attitude towards chechens is bad. they were kicking us in the face on the had on the ribs threatened to hang and castrate us. they filmed us during the beatings hussar wilkinson. though bust, they'll extend key. they put us against the wall and many ukrainian soldiers were deciding what to do with us. some one offered to shoot with the legs,

some one just to kill when we were kept in the gym. it was very cold. they constantly mocked the pilot's beat. them forced them not to sleep and they were saying the pilot could return to russia only as disabled people shall issue. out of this will you give veterans in ashanti williams? we were lying in the gym, blindfolding, and heard how they beat one soldier all night. and in the morning they set, do you even know that you slept with the corpse, which i think he was bidden with sticks is a do it? is it? when, while battles continue in the port city of mario pal, president zalinski speaking with ukrainian media stress the urgent need for a solution, russian defense ministry released a statement saying that ukrainian troops have a chance to lay down their arms and have a 3 hour window on tuesday, in which they can safely taken evacuation path. we spoke with mario pl, luke locals, who claimed to have suffered at the hands of the neo nazi ab. as all battalion or corresponding were, i'd gazda evers port reports from the ground. here in the east marie you. pl. well

is of. com prevails. children with grimy faces play bull with their puppy as explosion sound in the distance. but weeks they had been trapped in basements, as battles raged above them. we also met svetlana, a local pensioner described. what happened here is that they duck in on the salmon floor that they broke into the apartment and kicked people out in an and there on the 6th floor. who was it prescott? the crania, now, me as off or the on me, i'm not sure of the broken to these block is also an state on the 2nd floor that fit lana fears, showing her face. her son and sister are in an area of mary you bal still held by ukrainian as off nationalists. she fears reprisal against them. svetlana knows well what the nationalists said capable off. oh god knows, i'm not sure when i began. i tried to get through to see relatives 3 times and they

wouldn't laugh at me. i begged them on my knees as all of us, he was gone and suffered and lapis out. what did they say to you? and again, i'm sorry, but can i tell you exactly what they sat? you think it was that go yourself get out of here before we should get to your face? yes. and the 2nd time they stopped me asked me who i was. i told them i was just a local one of dads look, so the sad get out of here. you're not one of us civilians. by all appearances, were human shields to them. they have always considered mario bow pro russian, and therefore sub human part of the neo nazi ideology as of militants turn the apartment buildings with hundreds of civilians into machine gun and rocket nests into bases in every single building that we visited in mario. but it's the same thing broken into apartments. i want to show you this particular flat west as all

sizes made their home the places a mess. it has already been visited by security services, who found all sorts of an extra x cameras, as well as drugs in the trash bin. but everywhere here are bottles of vodka, bottles of vodka pills, elizabeth drugs, the book again found the, the fight is that with dislocated here the lived here, the pod from leaving the place. a mess also left their uniforms behind which indicates that they too like many other as often ukrainian troops that they made their exit disguised as a civilians. whiskey. i could only wonder where they found so much. i'll go here by the ways one of the military pins fit, lana is still distraught by the violence and mistreatment may be over,

but the memories burn. he have no idea about what ran through. you can't imagine. we had to brave bullets and shouts just to get water for the children. last some i took shower was on the 23rd of february, d. understand. imagine watching an apartment then in him a new woman next you cry that can monies him that a 90 year old woman bent like the found just his cult. had his grim and, and the flames and defies. and we couldn't to anything. i can still hear that scream. imagine baron, people in the kindergarten because he can't go any further and risk getting shot on the man who dunk the graves have to jump in. when shells landing her bike one day think it's like looking at people that terrified their families. there were no words. there's nothing you can respond with outside graves, daughter form a playgrounds and kidney gardens. where

a month ago children played and laughed. this may seem like an ordinary yard surrounded by high rise apartment buildings. but in the middle is this graveyard. people for weeks had been trapped in their basements. eddie, who attempted to flee, was shot dead by as of snipers, ukrainian nationalists who forbid any sort of evacuation people cradled the bodies of their loved ones, the corpses of their loved ones for days before. finally, deciding to bury them here is a very small grave that of a child the battle for mary opal. his galvanized the russian public support for the special operation. now that the horrors and depravity of ukraine and nationalists have been laid bare galvanized and horrified in equal measure. more i'd gazda of arti from mario po,

europe is facing mounting blow back due to its sanctions on russia, with the cost of living soaring that, coupled with increased military spending has stirred up some, you are opinions, anti war protests have taken place in the streets of madrid to slam, the spanish governments increased military spending amid the war. in crane is comes after spain announced a defense budget increase, taking it close to around 2 percent of spain's d d p units commitments with the nato alliance. here's what some people at the march had to say. again, we have to denounce the imperialist interference of nato and the european union zalinski supporting nato as a reactionary alliance and has used democracy as a way of advancing on the territory for years. we cannot allow our government to draw us into this, where they're increasing spending on the military when the budget should be put to help the needs of workers in this country. we do not want spending on arms. we do not want spending on war. we want the bed to be spent on the people for social

causes, for hospitals, for education, for pensions. we want them to stop the cuts. in while in germany, thousands of taxi drivers fear for their future. since fuel prices have surpassed 2 euros per liter since sanctions against russia were imposed, germany is facing some of the steepest price hikes in europe. we asked some taxi drivers and berlin about how rising fuel costs are affecting them. it's been, i guess if i am an employee as opposed to a businessman, but my petrol costs have now doubled. so i don't see how businesses will last. it certainly won't be easy to keep going. roster, it's definitely more expensive. i'm sure it's 30 percent more or something. a full tank is more than $100.00. 20 euros. now. it used to be 90 euros or so. cancer petrol prices are in the hands of politicians. we are all powerless, taxi drivers and other citizens are at their mercy. come,

economists and author richard wolf believes that governments may use the conflict in ukraine as a justification for rising prices. companies that were already raising prices are continuing to do so. and they now can blame the war, and other words, they can claim that the war between russia, ukraine, is, is responsible for why the prices are being raised. even if it isn't true, it is a convenient way to justify price increases that might otherwise have been criticized in the west anyway. but now they are excused if you like, by virtue of the war. the problem with that is, the more you make the price increase temporary or sounding temporary, as in a war, the more ironically, the message you give, that it's temporary,

and that therefore when the war is over, all of the things that happened will be undone. what that does is provide an incentive for people not to respond to their situation to simply wait. and the result is a kind of freezing of the world economy. which in this situation means that the sanctions are not going to have necessarily the effect that those who impose them hoped for. and may indeed prove to be very counter productive statement from our world news. and just about half an hour here on our team international. ah

ah ah, yeah, i had 2 or 3 i spoke earlier with her. what are your thousands of people still live in small towns and villages that have become the new frontline show? her dedrick, what they call this area. the gray zone didn't like the out of sallie ali founder of course, pretty knew what that was. only about a you had to call with for sharpen dishes or village olivia. they'll do so it will know why it was funny. that similarly was him dumb or was it a warrior? there are other show berella. i knew i through english

ah ah, ah. hello and welcome to cross stock. were all things are considered? i'm peter level. it will be long debated whether the war in ukraine could have been avoided. what is not really open the debate is how centers of power have been shifting to the east, the rise of asia as it were, the war in ukraine. his only accelerated that trend ah, discussed these issues and more, i'm joined by my guess, jordan 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 re bobbitt cheese, a political analyst and editor. it was me internet media project for a gentleman cross top roles and the fact that means you can jump in in time you want and i would appreciate it. ok, let's go to budapest 1st. in, as i said in my introduction, georgia, it will be origins of the conflict and ukraine. the current one will be debated for a long time. but there's one thing that seems quite obvious to me that people don't really want to talk about, is that it's not a catalyst for a major shift paradigm shift in the world. but it's accelerating it. and this is something that we've seen before. and because we have deem a bob, it's on the program, i'd like to talk about the limits of neo liberal ideology because i think this is one of the things is conflict tells us so much about go head george. yeah. now you're absolutely right. i'm the thing of it is that, you know, the historians would indeed debate whether or.
