2:03 pm
i'm listening but like i know that we were living in the basement for 2 months. we are very happy to see you guys. stay alive from did. if everything was bombed and burned down, we lived in a basement, no water, no food, which is grabbed. we could, didn't do much good deal on your the would you like a pregnant girl was killed? she left 2 kids and this girl was wounded. we've been treating her since the 7th of april, and i think because she never moved like this before doing it, and now you are evacuating right history. my sister and 3 nephews ah, with as russian lead forces evacuated, any remaining civilians from the area, the troops are now moving in for a final decisive battle against ukrainians. in mario, po ortiz, marine gas, you have reports from the scene. this is the last residential neighborhood or what's left of it. the still controlled by ukrainian nationalists in mary you bull
2:04 pm
. and they have done everything to hold onto with these machines out to change that and use her bard me with a movie. yeah. close to the out of still, but industrial not good with just fine. those buildings with infantry can only do so much against fortified positions. heavy alma is called in for the
2:05 pm
heavy lifting. and the true chechen volunteers in this case know where the weak points are. right now, these are the fibers are covering this tag cru, they're receiving targeting direction from troops here on the ground once, once they have those, all 1st i go to that, do its job. once everything is agreed, the action begins that his now in position has a target inside attack has thought that the initiative withdrawn a b m d heavy vehicle has now taken place. foreign nationalists to keep them keep the price up day in day out for weeks on
2:06 pm
end. fighting for every building, every floor, every room after the heavy vehicles finish up, the infantry moves in. pretty little a small task is to follow the soldiers and provide cover for them. we are on the lookout for any enemy movement. every one knows exactly what they're doing. the as off nationalists in the industrial zone at the heart of the city, are in sorry, shape. they're short and food, water, ammunition, and morale. chechen fife is here fighting on russia said, and who the nationalists promise to humiliate are pressing on. we literally go to their co buried, we remember all the videos that they made saying they were going to shave our beards off, but you can see who's being shaved now, their morale is love. many of them want to surrender, but some of their allies won't let them. russia has repeatedly offered them a ceasefire and the chance to surrender. the nationalists have refused in some
2:07 pm
places. ukrainian troops were found shot in the bag by their own as they attempted to surrender. it is clear that despite their situation, as of nationalists mentality has not changed and the most fanatical of them are still very much in charge. more ad gasdio ot from mario both the ukranian military is being used as a proxy against russia by the us and its allies. as, according to the pharmacy i analyst, larry johnson who says, washington is failing to see that keith is losing the ball. this conflict could have been avoided and instead, you know, it is pains me to say my country has been in the lead of trying to destroy russia. this need for war on the part of the west is being fed and i think
2:08 pm
unfortunately down for us or they've been off what they've been to and dealing with russia. essentially i, i see it. the ukranian army is fighting a proxy war for nato, for the united states. we're finding out that everything that we thought you created to do, they can't do it. russia has been pretty effective with the reality is the ukrainian military has really ceased to fall functions as an effective harris force . yet within the united states, there's this continued drug beat or propaganda touting major successes by the ukrainians. you can't see any of it on video because it doesn't exist for americans do not understand, is that the russians for fighting to defend the mother like this is and in the, the ignorance is displayed. and the point of so many people in my country about russia and it's history of their, you know, they continue to refer to them as communist today. really last
2:09 pm
a serious ability to analyze what's going on. and just as a very simple example, the fact that russia now has effectively sees the entire southern posted ukraine. he's the ukraine, a major economic life life. ukraine is cut off. this is like having an artery and your leg separate, who can survive long with their x. that means your korean economy. debt is not just suffering its debt because without importer exports, its ability defeated people and we keep getting kind of viable economy is we're going to reduce the intelligence community here is just oblivious to the private get august. there is more often to focus on identifying the specific veins and leaks as opposed to working at what's happening to the force. so as this pain increases, the americans are going to turn on the plus the politicians that really help create this mass. and every, every time jewel bite and tries to blame it on,
2:10 pm
most american voters are buying it so it can be flight. mean, biden people, i mean, the democrats, the sanctions imposed on russia in theory were supposed to damage lecture so badly that the people who rise up and throw off its having exactly the opposite effect. the damage is being done right now. economically, the united states. it's going to grow and increase, and this ultimately turn out to be devastating. here president putin has congratulated the russian military on the successful test launch of a bronze new intercontinental ballistic missile his all cheese maria phenomena with the details. precious defense ministry. indeed, a says that early on wednesdays carried out a successful task launch of rushes, sorry, mod, super heavy intercontinental ballistic missile known to the west as satan to all the tasks the ministry says were
2:11 pm
a fulfilled completely and precisely the giant mesa was launched from place. sense caused my drum in rushes north, commenting on the launch rushes president widen, report, and said that it would make all those countries daring to threaten russia. think twice. let's take a listen. you're good, we're sure this is a big advance in the development of advanced weapons systems for the russian army. the new complex has supreme texaco and technical characteristics is able to overcome any existing missile defense systems. it has no equivalence anywhere in the world, and there won't be any for a long time. this truly unique weapon will reinforce the convert potential of our forces reliably and show russia security from external threats and make those who in the heat of friends, aggressive rhetoric are trying to threaten our country. think twice. i would like to express my gratitude to everyone who participated in the development and production of the new complex. i would like to emphasize that when creating the saw mod only russian might components and parts were used. and this will simplify the
2:12 pm
serial production of the new missile complex. we 1st heard of this sar, mike may style back in 2018 when president put in and build 6 new strategic weapons . and back that it was announced that this harmony 1st flight was expected in 2022 with a weapon ready to enter service later in the same year. and from what we can hear. and now today from russia's defense ministry might happen a little bit ahead of the shadow. that him is. lensky has reportedly issued a gag order to stop his key advisor alexi at a sto, which from speaking on behalf of the ukrainian president. while keith has not yet commented on these reports, media briefings from aristo, which have allegedly gone a decreasing credibility. following a series of gas ot is donald quarter, explains rumor has it. he has put a big piece of duct tape over alex, say, a rest over his mouth, at least when it comes to official statements. he's one of ukrainian president
2:13 pm
vladimir lensky foremost advisors, and like his boss or a stove. it started his career a long way off from politics. i suppose was british, there's really no wishing to see through the ranks. he rose from military commentator to the speaker of ukraine's delegation for the men's protocols. these days he's been making even more public appearances than zalinski. but that doesn't mean you should take what he says at face value. in fact, a lot of it is straight up fake news. this is the corpse of a girl who was tortured to death. and gustavo mill, a swastika, was burned unto her body. that girl was actually killed by the, as of battalion in mario pal, something the ukrainian media even already admitted once again, ira stove, it refused to submit to reality. as pictures and videos began to emerge of over a 1000 ukrainian marines, surrendering near mario pull in my report as a result of
2:14 pm
a complex and very risky maneuver. eunice of the 36th marine brigade, broke through and joined the as of battalion, which made this happen professionally. the city's defense system has been reinforced over and over key of loudest mouthpiece has made claims and had to backtrack on them. but perhaps it's not so shocking that such a person came to become a figurehead of lensky as administration. after all are a stove, it's chose to speak on behalf of a man. he doesn't even really like political as the lead to lucas cooper. some countries could play man with the traits of zelinski could have scored votes only from crazy mother. he so unprofessional and stupid that he doesn't understand you cannot and a war unilaterally. a war can only be ended by either winning or losing constantly avoiding the truth, being untrue to his own principles. sounds like political opportunism at its finest . will. he gives these frequent briefings till ukrainian public about the current
2:15 pm
state of the war and ukraine. which lets the fact is that they are brimming with half truth. they are brimming with lies that are meant to deceive the audience. and i think that ukrainian people are starting to see that the is what he's doing is he's basically waging psychological warfare just against the ukrainian people. he's using propaganda to shape and control the minds of the public. this is a fellow who has the cunning of joseph goebbels, but also the clumsiness of iraq's former propaganda minister. the guy that was known as baghdad bobby just keeps shooting himself in the foot. he says things that are untrue and the facts on the ground, which is so different. the people surely at this point are realizing that they're being fed a lot of propaganda. the mom, japanese government has announced an increase of aid sparren. military assistance budget with a line sheriff than money going to ukraine. germany's finance ministers, they, they need funds will reach 2000000000 euros. berlin has already sent,
2:16 pm
he has many. terry supplies, including grenades, antea, craft rockets, machine guns, and ammunition, but not heavy weapons. as comes as germany is economy rules from skyrocketing production and energy prices. in the biggest spike in decades, a german journalist told us europeans are prepared for the backlash of sanctions over the conflicts in ukraine. but of unsure of women unsure and con, any fears will now be inflated with only one purpose weapon supplies. germany's agriculture minister them austin, murray, talks about foot problems, but not because he's really worried about it. this is just an excuse to cover of the supplies weapons from my personal point of view. there is really no sense to it . and on the contrary, it only brings harm. this is inhumane. it does not bring a peaceful solution to the conflict any closer. it only prolongs to war, it is obvious to me that the payment for these weapons is mostly being taken from the people of average or below average income. and in general,
2:17 pm
politics in germany is structured in such a way that 1st of all it will hit not the pocket of the rich, but the finances of people of average earnings. here is another side of what's happening, not only ukrainians, the suffering, but germans will also have to suffer. politicians say the weapons are necessary to establish peace, which is of course, nonsense. there is no plan on how to end this war. if there are other deliveries than some borders should be marked after which peace agreement should be made, but they don't talk about it. this is the road to nowhere. jail, wikileaks found a julian assange is one step away from extradition to the u. s. as after a london magistrate court ruled in favor of the need is now to britain's home secretary to confirm the decision which would c assange handed over to the us, where he's wanted on espionage charges. where can leaks editor in chief, kristen, her, athens and claims the latest decision amounts to a death sentence for such. 16 months ago this, an accidental songs would mean
2:18 pm
a risk to his life that it will be equal to that sentence. not his court has been ordered for you to that sentence. that is what happened here today, like you will to live is in the hands or whatever orders, johnson, they need to do that. i think you need to make sure they do the right thing. they have the call to step to and to save a man's life and stop this attack on approval the press. julian assange faces up to 175 years in the u. s. prison if found guilty, react to this has denied the allegations against him. wednesdays ruling comes to mind in early decision from the same court, saying astonished, could be treated harshly and american custody. we got reaction from international journalist which had met her to believe the latest court decision was made without proper consideration. what we had this morning was really
2:19 pm
a rubber stamping. i was in the court of virtually this time and i saw the judge. he actually had to legally speak directly to us on break down what's happening right now. and he told them that, you know, this is not really up to me. i'm duty bound to send this to send your case to pretty but tell the home secretary for her to sign off on the extra mission and you have a right to appeal. but you can only appeal after she has made her decision. so that means in about 4 weeks cuz a sondors lawyers they have until may 18th to make submissions to pretty patel, to make their case for to not sign off on the extradition cuz the ultimate decision does line her hands. and after that assange could appeal. busy if she does order the extradition honestly given pretty patel's policies, you know, i don't, i don't really hold out much hope for science because it's just last year where she was trying her office was trying to in make recommendations. journalists in the u. k. be in prison for up to 14 years for you know, publishing government secrets,
2:20 pm
things that embarrass the government. so i don't really think she's much of a, of a friend of freedom of the press. again, i do hope she does the right thing because she, she has the power in her hands right now as those boards. johnson to take a stance for press freedoms to show that the u. k is not working at the best in the united states. and to stop a, you know, a journalist being shipped off to face to centuries and jail. this is very obviously a political, political trial. when you have a journalist being, you know, being charged with 17 counts as a spy, that's political by nature. and so when you have a political case like this, you can't just when it in the courts, you really have to win it through public opinion. it's a battle that has to be for with lots of stamina, long term. and it's very good to see these assange activists coming out a quite often that they're very determined, they're very driven. it's actually, thanks to them that i and other journalists were able to get in the courts during a song just extradition hearing because they would queue up since 5 in the morning . and thanks to them, we were able to report on this. so i think it's crucial, i think there has to be a pressure on the board johnson government to,
2:21 pm
to block this extradition. they can do this. they, they, you know, under the extradition treaty between the use and the u. k. that was signed in 2003 under article 4. you can block in extradition if it's for a political offense. and again, charging a journalist as fi is. busy the classic textbook, political offense, and so forth on some pretty well they really do have the power to block this. if the, you know a sanchez health is not a concern to them. if press freedoms are not a concern to them, they still have the chance to block it for, for its political nature. and so i think it's, it's, it's power amounts that people put public pressure on the government. it's been almost 6 days since say to lay an american journalist who's been covering the conflict from inside to ukraine has gone missing and well consult alara's colleagues. try to track down the reporter. a prominence ukrainian near nazi has posted a series of and verified claims, implying that journalist might have been abducted killed. gonzalo laira is 54 years old and has been living in ukraine for the past few years. he was in kia when the
2:22 pm
conflict threw up in february and then travelled to ca, call it to cover the fighting there. he's repeatedly criticize ukrainian government and armed forces for the actions. at the end of march, he tweeted what he called the truth about the lens keys regime. i think he might disappear, added other critics off kia, some of whom were later found that he was going on. there is latest interviews before he went missing. there is a constant showing of be done by us reach the break away public republic south. gotcha. and over the years, well, about 16000 people were killed there needlessly. and it was really because of the aggression of the ukraine regime, which never wanted to negotiate with people on the brake republics. early, we got reaction from eva, karen bartlett, the very journalist, him, gonzalo was speaking to in that interview. you just heard. she explained what else gonzalo told her shortly before he disappeared. he messaged me explaining why he
2:23 pm
had been stressed out the day before saying is extremely tired, hadn't been sleeping. and that the, he but he said the crazies are on the street, you could tell by looking at them, you don't want to go near them. he was also saying that people are staying in doors because they're afraid to go outside. and if they do go outside, they are extremely paranoid about everyone around them. so he was definitely quite worried about his own safety. gonzalo is doing a lot of interviews, particularly on the duran channel, but also with other journalists. and he made it clear that he was aware of the dangers that being in car cove posed to him in not the cities overrun with nazis. but he felt it was important to be there to witness how things played out. he had a massive following on social media, particularly on his telegram channel, which has nearly 90000 subscribers. um and it, every time he appeared on the duran and other programs, there was a wide audience ready to hear his views because again,
2:24 pm
one other notable thing is he being in car cove was one of the sole voices, if not the sole voices in english language speaking critically about what was happening under that zelinski regime and under the nazi rule, i don't think any normal ukrainian citizen can feel safe inside the country, but particularly not his family because well, his name is now well known and the secret services will be looking for them so, but i, i do want to emphasize norden, era ukrainian citizens can't feel safe within their country because of the widespread, a rule of these nazi groups in ukraine. tennis plays from russia and bella bruce, have officially been banned from competing at wimbledon. you, kate, tennis officials say that decision was unavoidable, given the political situation, but they might review the suspension. if things do change, some of the excluded athletes. a high profile players, that as several of the russians are ranked in the global tub. 30 including currents world number 2 at daniel made video of
2:25 pm
a criminal spokes posted to meet you. pest golf house condemned their suspension by the u. k saying that wimbledon will be at a loss for refuse a by refusing to host to place his some reaction to that band from social media uses. brush and tennis players are to be banned at wimbledon. that's me not watching it. then keeping politics out of sports is obviously beyond the rush of folks. i hope there are players who take wimbledon to court for this. this isn't about the russian tennis federation, but individual players who have a russian passport. it's like the world versus russia. now remember, tennis as a solo sport, let the people enjoy their sport. because reaction to the ban. farm profess official. a jan, former sports lecturer, ls cashmore. that is nonsense, of course because women players do not compete on behalf of their country. they're not representatives of their country now playing as individuals. and so i think that it's still time for wimbledon to reconsider this decision. there is this kind
2:26 pm
of rush of phobia going on and anything that is associated with russia is automatically deemed bad. now that translates into sports, and sport has, in a certain way, understandably been ad floored by most of sports major governing organizations. but when it comes down to individuals, i think playing a different game here because we're punishing a way. i mean wimbledon is punishing individuals for committing no crime whatsoever their own transgression is to have been born in russia or by the russia. washington is now offering an arms race in us orbits with us. 5 president comma la hires, announcing a band on anti satellite weapons tests saying it will encourage more responsible behavior in space. yesterday, vice president announced the united states commitment to not conduct the
2:27 pm
destructive director sent anti satellite missile testing, and to work to establish this as a new international norm for responsible behavior in space. this, by the latest rhetoric from washington, the u. s. had already rejected several key international treaties today to ban the placements of weapons and all bits with american officials, claiming the proposals offered by russia and china were the floors, the director of rushes. the space agency was cosmo safe. the us has apparently already developed its own code, the space weapons program, and retired us as well as the tenant colonel se washington was apparently putting enough time to complete its own weapons tests. first, you have to understand the messaging is very often directed domestically. and this is a political thing, the democrats in the fighting supporters in this country company. they are tuned in 2 environmental health issues. and this is an environmental issue. there's, there's space garbage and we're going to not support space garbage. i mean,
2:28 pm
that's part of the message and the other part of it is misleading much to the international community. and that is because the u. s. is already completed the testing that it needs to do. and so this is one more way to point the finger at other countries specifically rush in china. i mean, if you look at the markets for the defense contractors that contract with us space command, boeing in particular, which is had a major role in the anti satellite activities. their stocks are, are fine, they are leveling going up. ok. so there was no market reaction to a cancellation or a stoppage. u. s. government investment in this area, which tells you that either the investment is not stopping or it is already been made and they're moving on to other things. may thanks for keeping his company here on our tea international as always, plenty more stories to be found on the website all t dot com ah
2:29 pm
a move to fill out an engagement trail. when so many find themselves will support, we choose to look for common ground will this is when you come through. i'm going to assume that was the liam up shift and this and you can say it's the easier the short of your issue. you've done really, peter than that, but i see that they do kids here,
2:30 pm
but even submitted the stuff. it's not that i do so on the back of nothing that apply. louis louis you said you're doing unless you just said he did you agree? but you know of to that the route, but i see my fall in there for but the fluid gives you a grown glitch. so does this ms. messi boomer there? glitchy blue. he is still going to be putting it. but he thank you sir. the one you probably did get your sewing interest, but you might be away from bruce. there should be strew. so we'll see them listed below my guess. but i'm going to be right with you michelle. but the issue because we're doing it yesterday was joe more so than that, the guy in the mid a balloon to me, i believe blue he goes to 0 is not that a bug, but most the, even the, even the chair ships you will be unless you can me.
