for ah ah, i done, yes, official say the number of civilians killed in the ukrainian missile strike on a train station has risen to at least 50 with another 100 people wounded, ukraine's president and his own advisor contradict each other. and they bid to blame russia. claims adamantly denied by moscow with archie corresponded roman coast of visits, a suburb of marble, where federal russian medical personnel haven't been assisting a local doctors that made efforts to return to peaceful life in the area. in the u

. s. has threatened india with significant and long term consequences if it doesn't fall in line against the kremlin, saying it's not in the best interest to maintain close ties with russia. ah, broadcasting live direct, more studios in market. this is r t international. glad to have you with us as we bring you news and commentary about the war in ukraine. are now done yet school officials say a ukrainian touch k u ballistic missile strike, killed at least 50 people and wounded a 100 others in the city of crime. a tourist in the danielle people's republic. now we're about to show you the immediate aftermath of that attack and a warning. you may find these images quite disturbing. oh,

i wouldn't, wasn't taken just moments after the attack. it caused the panic out of the train station as people have been trying to evacuate. the city bodies can be seen in the street. some people tried to provide for said to the wounded is where a key of has blamed the russian military for the strike with president zalesky saying it was russian torture you missile. but moscow has rejected that claim saying that it decommissioned usage of that missile several years ago. but celebrities own advisor contradicted him saying that it was a russian iskander missile ortiz, mary phenomena has one another. and deadly incident in people's republic of de naz on friday morning, iraq at heat a railway station in town of crematory, which is around 150 kilometers north of denise. at the time when it was packed with thousands of civilians, including those trying to evacuate from the city,

the stations, officials say dramatic pictures from the ground, blood and dead bodies everywhere. the credit officials accused the russia of the attack, but they contradict each other on what weapon was used. shortly after the railway station was targeted, the presidential adviser posted in social media that it was, is, can there a short range ballistic missile, widely used by the russian army. but president zelinski himself said it was torture for you, which is more likely because it's fragments were found at the scene and place. there are many pictures and there is also video posted by an eye witness from the ground where it's clear what weapon was that. so there can be questions on this issue. moscow denies any involvement, pointing out that the russian army hasn't been using thought you tactical missiles since late 2019 while ukraine has and does use it. here is russia's defense ministries, official statement like this to look to the political. all we emphasize in

particular that touch could you tactical missiles, the wreckage of which was found near the crimea tossed grey station and published by eye witnesses used by ukrainian armed forces only was killing me of the russian defense ministry also now says that they discovered that the missile was fired from the village of the warriors, some 55 kilometers from kind of my tours. and it was done by the ukraine in rocky division that a station there. and this is what they say about the purpose of this attack. the aim of the care of regime strike on the railway station and cremmit task was to disrupt the mass exit of residents from the city in order to use them as a human shield to defend ukrainian forces positions. as in many of the ukrainian population centers, there was a similar attack with thought ca you a miss how used a just last month in mid march and, and the center of the city of denounced was targeted. 17 people were killed and another $36.00 injury, which is a lot of horace, but less than during this recent incident. that's because the missile back then was

intercepted over the territory controlled by the russian army. this time it wasn't done. so this is why we see much more casualties. this time. as we mentioned, ukraine claims russia hit the train station with an iskander missile shown here on the left. however, as a military expert told us, the torch cri you missile, which only key of uses is noticeably different with its fins much higher up on the body. the analysis of the fragments of the video and the images, the of the rocket that we can easily find right now in the media clearly indicates that it is part of the grant, tactical record complex logical. why? what are the proofs? the evidence 1st war would have to be our attention to the unique form of its stabilizers. it is very difficult to confuse it with another rocket. for

example, russian is kinda hes totally different once and another point. ease of their absurdity. oh, the accusation of the russian part, why, since 2019 such type of rocket complex, who had been officially withdrawn from the service or russian military forces. so right now, during their special military operation, there is no one such types of arguments that can be used by russian forces. the battle for mar, you pull, appears to have reached its final stage as increasingly more territory is said to be coming under the control of russian forces. and there don bass allies. moscow is taking extensive efforts to provide that civilians in those areas with food and other humanitarian aid, as well as evacuate them if needed. so they say,

and many have accused ukrainian soldiers of forcing local residents to remain in the war zone to use them as human shields. arches where i've got to have comments. amidst the ruins of mary, you pull the broken towers and apartment blocks. it is easy to spot the front lines . you won't see tanks and marching infantry, but the flies give it away where the city burns the fighting rages. this is as close as we it slide to the as of industrial complex ukrainian nationalists inside have and t drone equipment which they used to intercept and take over nearby drones . we almost la stars. the streets here are safer, mildly safer. it

may seem remarkable, but thousands of people are inside these neighborhoods. some who have refused to evacuate, and others who have never had the opportunity. those still held as human shields by ukrainian nationalists, human shields, and even worse 3rd civilians at the school. and every day they walk to the local bakery, that's a school over there. there's the bakery. every day local residents go there to collect water and ease off nationalists forced them to carry food and ammunition to their fighters, forcing civilians to carry ammunition for nationalist fighters. across the front lines is a war crime. it is prohibited by the geneva conventions which state that civilians may never be forced into dangerous labor, directly related to military operations, but ukrainian as off nationalists are long past caring. they only care for their

own bargain. for several days ago, we shuttle lookout soldiers who cleared the building, reported that the body was gone. i saw the shot land myself, in all likelihood they carry away the bodies of foreign fighters and their own fighters, so that we are unable to identify them. there have been many a's off nationalists and other fighters killed, but they always carry away the bodies. this is 100 percent. sure. all our guys know the us. the jane. so as all fighters and mercenaries is clear, they have adopted stalling tactics all over the city to delay the inevitable. the liberation of mary elbow at all costs. perhaps hoping for a diplomatic solution to the conflict. they have shown by holding thousands, tens of thousands of civilians hostage as human shields. that for the nationalists, new price is too high. more ad guys the of

r t for mary opal. a heavy fighting there while the russian military and its allies engage in heavy fighting with the remnants of the ukrainian forces in mario, poland, near the as of steele factory and the city support our correspondent among coastal visits. the town of mon gosh, about 15 kilometers outside mario, where personnel from russia that federal by a medical agency have been assisting local doctors. i'm getting a hundreds of messages from people in russia who are looking for their loved ones. and also here in maria, paul, when i arrive, people are recording video messages, their loved ones in russia. and a lot of the time i managed to get a hold of her and their relatives. and this is just one of the messages and this woman contacted her daughter and she is about to see her for the 1st time. in

months. i pushed the last 2 years ago to comment. it used to come over a year ago when you bought it will be bushels to social with with wine. yes. the with the people not with perception noted yourself. i'm sure. yeah. yes. other furniture yeah. is a little my dear tanya, i'm alive and healthy, should i go as a former red army soldier and current refugee under the surname gregorio? i am writing to you to tell you that everything is fine, little i'm planning to come to the capital of our mother, landlord in esque than yes, the weather is good. we hope the darkness we've lived through has finally ended.

life goes on as when you were about 15 kilometers away from the city of maria. pull in a town of mon gosh, this is where the offers the ambulances bring wounded civilian civilians who were, are hurt in the maribelle. russian doctors are working here. this spend this sent as special a mission to help daughters here and then as people's republic, i'm gracious is the 1st time i'm being sent to hotspot. it's difficult, just as for any normal person, it stirs up feelings of being simply pain. we face all sorts of problems here, we're providing emergency assistance to people and also trying to implement preventive measures so that people don't get ill. the children are mostly calm, they're mostly mirroring their parents behavior. so it's important to stay calm, hutto and we're still at the hospital here in mongolia where a wound the civilians are brought from. murray will also, this is the only hospital in the area and the local doctor and russian doctors are

also treating local patients from various illnesses, including just a simple cost consultation services. community number civilians have problems with this disease. we strive to provide medical care to everyone who asked for, we have enough medicines. here in the hospital. we work very closely with the local doctors as well as many doctors from tonight's together with them. we examine patients and decide whether to evacuate them to do that. so as i've heard the zone, they have a shortage of, of food here and the water. so we decided to bring well potatoes on humans, carrots cabbage, some can goods for them as well as well. they're very, very thankful for that and we will continue bringing them food here for as long as they need it. now, the white house has,

again demanded that india come out against russia, saying it's quote, disappointed with new delhi neutrality amid moscow's military operation. and ukraine. u. s. officials have threatened india with significant and long term consequences if it doesn't fall in line against the kremlin. there are certainly areas where we have been disappointed by both china and india is decisions in the context of the invasion. washington had previously warned india against buying russian weapons. and while some countries have piled economic pressure on moscow, india has stood firm and continued in ports of russian oil. but the white house is strongly opposed to that idea with spokesperson gen saki, saying that it's not in india's best interest to maintain such close ties with russia. we don't believe it's an india's interest to accelerate or increase imports of russian energy and other commodities. every country should abide by the sanctions that we have announced, and that we're implementing around the world india,

the world's 3rd largest oil in puerto, has been hit hard by rising prices for crude. the middle east accounts for the bulk of india's oil imports with iraq and saudi arabia, the top 2 suppliers. now at least 2 major indian refineries plan to buy less saudi oil than usual, instead of opting for cheaper imports from russia. political commentator a g dot that says it's a good deal for india. india waited, obviously she got the best deal to get it. and if the offering, the best deal when it comes to a dock, i think india is already classified on this issue as russian, if that is the cheapest group that is available in used to be dependent on russian military equipment since many decades. even though there is a lot of diversification, and there is a point where it has to go site because

a all right. it was a national system for india with a back for a x being engaged with both sides without falling into the trap of looking at this entire conflict. america rush in binary. india's neighbor pakistan is also a target of pressure from the u. s. and the u. as western powers, urge islam abad to condemn russia's military operation in ukraine. pakistan's prime minister iran con, has opposed to those calls saying no country should dictate to others about taking sides in a foreign conflict. cons russia friendly policies have even brought him to the verge of being removed from office or cheese don quarter explains. dark clouds of

descent are hanging over pakistan's government prime minister imran khan is facing a vote of no confidence on saturday over his support for russia. but he says, he's ready to fight my message to our nation is that i have always and will continue to fight for pakistan till the last bull. the vote is set to come. not long after con, tried to dissolve parliament and call for new elections. the court stepped in though and vetoed the move the advice tendered by the prime minister on or about april 3rd, 2022 to the president to dissolve. the assembly was contrary to the constitution and have no legal effect. no doubt the opposition, which stood on the precipice of disaster is happy about this political turnaround on k to day, the supreme court with this verdict saved the future of pakistan saved pakistan's constitution restored the sovereignty of pakistan's parliament. unfortunately, for con, his opposition has the support of the military, which has taken a hard line to pro key of stance. teddy that i had in v in ukraine is very

unfortunate as homeless people have been good 1000000 bid. that if you didn't, ha, ha, ha, didn't destroy still pakistan's prime minister is refusing to budge on his support for moscow. why would we condemn russia? or we your slaves that whatever you say we will do. he staring down the barrel of a vote of no confidence. he is contending with the combined forces of the opposition and the military. and yet con, standing firm, accusing washington of working behind the scenes of it all. how can i accept the result when the entire process is discredited? democracy functions on moral authority. what moral authority is left after this connivance? the move to oust me is blatant interference in domestic politics by the united states con even says he found a letter, allegedly, from the united states that mentions the vote of no confidence before it was even filed, washington denies it, sent to anything like that. but there is no denying the pro us sentiment among the

packets to any opposition and military. we had historically excellent relations with the us. the good army we have today is largely built and trained by the us. the best equipment we have is u. s. equipment. say con ends up with the short end of the stick. you can bet islam of odd will be added to the list of washington's allies. and in terms of possible u. s. involvement, that's at best, a little suspicious. india has blocked dozens of facebook and twitter and youtube accounts, with billions of views for spreading misinformation, including that new delhi, had joined the ukraine war and was bombing russia. and the information minister warrant. they wouldn't hesitate to act against the social media giants. again, these channels were involved in spreading misinformation, impacting india sovereignty, national security, and relations with other countries. they were spreading fake news about the pandemic in the russia ukraine crisis. we won't shy away from taking such action in

the future. india revealed the fake news accounts had gone to extreme lengths to look legitimate, including using real news groups, logos, and the faces of top tv presenters. one of the accounts even claimed new delhi had the nuclear bomb to pakistan's 2nd biggest city, la hoar, the countries banned $78.00 youtube sites alone since it brought in the rules act last year in indian cybersecurity expert says the amount of misinformation has skyrocketed since the ukraine war erupt at about a month and a half ago. what do you mean by show they've been released on several youtube channels from social media handles, which popped up and they were using the images of the indian popular news like india has bomb peoples and people that i've been a nuclear attack on indian cities and they were melissa people who were watching such big news and i'm going to do it has finally decided to block these big

propaganda channels. i'm sure the through the national security people get influence. busy all sort of people that pick up some people middle something which maybe along that it does create, i must be missing. it does create what it does must be it's also in the solution with foreign states about which misinformation is inspect. i'm that is already you sent to protect solid and independent policy and security to protect them from this information. what we have is, i just love the service, which was 30 speaking of russia has warned foreign states to stop pumping lethal weaponry into ukraine as it is being used to allegedly commit war crimes, including by caves top fighting force, the openly neo nazi. as i'll tell you, we call on the international community to give an objective assessment of the

crimes of your credit informations to stop supply them with weapons and to encourage keith to abandon unacceptable methods of warfare. the us and u. k. were providing weapons to crane even before the beginning of the conflicts, and many more western states have begun sending legal aid to kiev. in the last 2 months. washington has even approved a bill to use if a lend lease act, a world war to air program to lend on and other supplies to ukraine. g 7 member, italy has also pledged to provide legal aid with prime minister taking a tough line against moscow. but rowing numbers of italians are angry at their prime minister, seeing the sending of legal aid as counter productive to ending the conflict in italy. the hash tag not in my name is trending on twitter with italians and other europeans urging their governments to stop sending weapons to ukraine. renee morgan's ratty, i am very against the sending of weapon. it's no quip ins,

do not increase visa negotiation approaches. there are poles that say that the majority of italians want a serious peace negotiation and not the shipment of our good united in the idea of sending weapons as a political decision. and i don't think it will help the ukrainian population from a social point of view. i disagree. we are fighting a war by sending weapons when we understand that this does not work for the 4th. oh no enough. assuming that it's an awful idea that would only serve to escalate tensions, it can only lead to higher violence. so, but it doesn't make any sense that they are spending money that should be invested in health care in other sectors. finance, crane v o. d. i to me and a shipment of weapons to me is not justified by sending weapons. we are sustaining the war and i am against entry. get it. he thought you'd be other than the other me . i see sending weapons as a betrayal because the italian government has agreements with russia to pull people to me. italy is behaving like traitors. it is following an american line that i

don't like a false democracy, miserable. some italian politicians say that sending more weapons does not help to resolve the conflict which has had a serious impact on italy's economy. not the right contrary olivia, the alternative party is again sending these weapons because they will risk rekindling and already very serious conflict for the civilian population of europe has chosen to be a belligerent institution. that is reorienting its economy towards war. and this has serious implications for the whole european economy in manufacturing robin, which in many jobs are risk and there is a risk of a food crisis. and these people feel, now let me say, may asked me to get down the more frankly, we are dismayed about thinking of rearmament when europe spends over 233000000000 euros on armament 4 times more than russia. so shot, it's unacceptable. when we have to think about instead is a foreign and defense policy that is unique to europe. this give to the armaments industry as an unacceptable madness with addition to the russian authorities have

echoed that view by those a time politicians saying that you sending more weapons and sanctioning moscow are acts of aggression and russia has a right to defend itself. that's as that you issued a 5th wave of measures this time targeting the russian army, producer question, of course the defense ministry, spokes person eager to kind of shank off as well as get among graph the head of rushes, largest bank, spear bunk, r e o states have joined the u. s. in ending coal imports, which some critics say is likely to push the confidence already skyrocketing energy prices. even higher, rushing ships will no longer be allowed to access european ports and the export of ation, fuel software and sensitive equipment to moscow will be banned. the you will also stop buying timber, cement, and alcohol from russia and the u. k. and the use of food industries are facing a supply crisis and sky high prices emitted import shortages including ad,

britton's, iconic fish and chips shops. i was just experiencing the pricing for very expensive. there's more. busy fuel for delivering the store in the fish as well. so what is the only only living for ease ease that's a fact to people spending power is. busy we heard from a german human rights lawyer who thinks the you should stop falling, washington's lead because the economic costs are from the sanctions are too high. i don't believe and sanctions anyway, because sanctions are measured to solve any problem. and these new sanctions as well. they will have a serious impact, again on european citizens and on european states. i think it's a, it's a stupid idea. it's a stupid idea to have all sanctions to stop a stupid, to stop economical ties. and if you look at the history for on the,

on the 1990 and late 99, he's never had been sanctions against any leading. all country also need to states like the, i don't know. and i think to implant and now is a symmetric measure and it's a measure which it really impacts the european citizens negative and the german government and and start to run after the u. s. government in the escalation of the sanction of sanctions on $432.00 and a half minutes. that's when i will be back with a another. look at your news and commentary from moscow. this is our t international. glad to witness. oh

oh oh, i mean a ah it oh, is your media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safe?

isolation, whole community? are you going the right way or are you being led to direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. oh, when i was showing wrong, when i just don't hold any yes to safe out. because the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart,

we choose to look for common ground. ah, ah. below in welcome to cross top where all things are considered i'm peter lavelle. europe finds itself in a quandary, is determined to punish russia for its military operation in ukraine. it's favored policy, instrument is of course, sanctions of all sorts. but alas, it's not so simple. sanctions and gender counter sanctions. this translates into economic pain. for europe, ah,

crossing europe's fate. i'm joined by my guess i'd rail can santa in london. he is founder of a k console.
