ah, ah ah, russian lead for his clothes in on remaining ukrainian positions inside. they've gone back to see if mario polls or at least 5 nationalists soldiers are said to have surrendered on wednesday. reports from the front line with, as russia successfully testify as a bronze me ballistic missile president putin say, is it a terrorist weapon is food for thought for those seeking to threaten the country? plus a british cord moved to extradite jail. to wiki leaks found a julian of thorns to the u. s. on espionage charges that despite an early decision by the same chord, saying astonished,

could be treated harshly and american custody. a one welcome. this is asi international. with the latest world news headlines is good to have you with us. not to be a person, has reaffirmed rushes commitment to keep up its operation and don't boss until locals can return to their normal lives. the sort of the tragedy that took place and don boss, including the leg ganske people's republic force russia to begin its special military operation. and like i said at the very outset is the goal of this operation is to assist our people who are there. we will take gradual action until we bring about a situation when life will gradually normalize their. meanwhile, coming spokesman to meet your pest. gov says russia has sent a new draft agreement to ukraine and is now awaiting a response. however,

the pest. gov added that keith has safe. i've been reluctant to work out the details of an arrangement with moscow. in the ambassador don bassetti as marielle poles, 5 ukrainian soldiers have reportedly surrendered on wednesday. this comes as russian lead forces step up. their assaults on the last stronghold of keeps troops in mario pope. the remaining defenders are still holding the sprawling territory of the as of stall industrial plans. their exact number is unknown, but they are reportedly in short supply of ammunition and food. russian lead forces that have been making very cautious, moves towards enemy positions. more local civilians have managed to take advantage of when it's harry and corridors and flea their homes of the hiding in basement for weeks. some of them have said their experience, who's sick of whom, and we really need medicine in more humanitarian aid in order to deliver to different parts of the city. for the elderly people there with my mom. no, she wants. the most important thing is that our children all study in russian. it

was a nightmare. how they tortured us, the russian speaking population. i feel so sorry for the children mutual enough. i'm listening but my dad, my mom because we were living in the basement for 2 months. we are very happy to see you guys. stay alive. but if everything was bombed and burned down, we lived in a basement, no water, no food. we just grabbed what we could do it in the year which reveal on your to would you like us 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 even though she never move like this before doing it, and now you are evacuating right history. my sister and 3 nephews ah, as russian lead forces evacuate, any remaining civilians from the area, the troops are now moving in for a final just science is back to legs. ukrainians in mario poll, ortiz, mar and gas. you have reports from the seeing. these is the last residential

neighborhood or what's left of it that still controlled by ukrainian nationalists in mary u. bo. and they have done everything to hold on to with these machines out to change that with heavy are not attacked by me with a movie. yeah. close to the as of still at industrial nature. no go forward with just fine. those buildings with infantry

can only do so much against $4.00 to $5.00 positions. heavy alma is called in for the heavy lifting and the troops check volunteers in this case. know where the weak points are. right now these are the 5 cover english that grew there receiving, targeting direction from food on the ground. once once they have those, all fish died goes through its job. once everything is agreed, the action begins that his vow in position has a target inside attack . it's not true, it's abby initiative withdrawn a bmt every vehicle has out take its place,

firing nationalists to keep the keep the price up day in day out for weeks on end. fighting for every building, every floor, every room after the heavy vehicles finish up, the infantry moves in digital till 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 5 is here fighting on russia, sud and who the nationalist promise to humiliate are pressing on. we little girl irc over it. we remember all the videos that they made saying they were going to shave our beards off, because 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 seat far and the chance to surrender. the nationalists have refused, in some places, ukrainian troops without a shot in the back by their own as they attempted to surrender. it is clear that despite their situation, as of nationalist mentality has not changed and the most fanatical of them are still very much in charge. more, i guess give r t for marry you both. the ukrainian military is being used as a proxy against russia by the us and its allies, as, according to former c, i, a analyst, larry johnson who says, washington is failing to say that keith is losing the war. this conflict could have been avoided. instead, you know, it is pains me to say it, 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 unfortunately down for us or they've been off what they've been to and the little brush of essentially i as i see it, the ukranian army is fighting a proxy war for nato for the united states were finding out that everything that we thought the creators to do, they can't do it. russia has been pretty effective because the reality is the ukrainian military has really ceased to function as an effective full harris force . yet, within the united states, there's is continued drunk to propaganda touting major successes by the ukrainians where 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 in the form of so many people in my country about russia

and it's history of their, you know, they continue to refer to them as communists today. really last us, serious or ability to analyze what's. ready going on, and they just as a very simple example, the fact that russia now has effectively sees the entire southern supposed to be praying ukraine major. after all my life life ukraine is cut off. this is like having an artery and your leg separate, who can survive long with their. that means you cream economy instead is not just suffering. it's death because without imports or exports, its ability to theaters people and keep getting kind of viable economies for one is reduced. yet the intelligence community here is just oblivious to the private august. there is more often the 3rd are focused on identifying the specific veins and leaks in the photos to looking at what's happening to the force. so as this pain increases,

the americans are going to turn on the politicians that help create this mass. and every, every time job bite and tries to blame it on to most american voters are buying it . so then be blaming biden. the blind mean, the democrats, the sanctions imposed on russia in theory were supposed to damage lecture so badly that the people would rise up and throw off its having exactly the opposite effect . the damage is being done right now. economically, united states is going to grow and increase, and this ultimately to be devastating. here president putin has congratulated the russian military on the successful test launch of a bronze new intercontinental ballistic missile. his ortiz, marie, finished with the deacons, 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 a fulfilled completely and precisely the giant miss owl was launched from playsets cosmo jerome in russia's 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 bush. 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 and 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 with 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

a new complex. i would like to emphasize that when creating the saw mas only russian might components and parts were used. and this will simplify the serial production of the new missile complex. we 1st heard of this sar might, may solve back in 2018 when president put in and will 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 a now today from russia's defense ministry might happen a little bit ahead of the shadow. ah, that him is lensky has reportedly issued a gag order to stop his key advisors. alexey at a sto, which from speaking on behalf of the ukrainian president, while keith has not yet commented on these reports, mediate briefings from aristo, which have allegedly gone a decreasing credibility following a series of guests. auntie 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 vladimir, is the landscape foremost advisors, and like his boss or a stove. it started his career a long way off from politics, i suppose was pretty serious univision and 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, 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 a complex and very risky maneuver. units 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 group in some countries. okay. man with the traits of zelinski could have scored votes only from crazy mother. he so unprofessional and stupid that he doesn't understand your canada and the 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 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 these, 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 its foreign military assistance budgets with a line sheriff than money going to ukraine. germany's finance ministers, they,

they need funds will reach to 1000000000 euros. berlin has already sent. 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 . 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, mary, talks about food problems, but not because he's really worried about it. this is just an excuse to cover of the supply weapons from my personal point of view. there is really no sense to it. and on the contrary, it only brings hom, 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, politics in germany is structured in such a way that 1st of all it will hit not the focus 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 it disagreements should be made, but they don't talk about it. this is the road to nowhere. jail. wikileaks founded julianna's sanchez, 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 a son's handed over to the us, where he's wanted on espionage charges. where can excited to achieve kristin, her athens and claims the latest decision amounts to

a death sentence for such thank you, months ago this for a kid, i don't know, songs would mean a risk to his life that it will be equal to that sentence. now there is, court has been ordered issue that been sent and that is what happened here today. not unions, alive is in the hands or whatever and board is johnson. they need to do that. i mean, you need to make sure they do the right thing. they have the call to step through to and to save a man's life and stop this attack on the food all the press. julianna's orange faces up to 175 years in the u. s. prison if found guilty, react to this has denied the allegations against him. wednesday's ruling comes to find an early decision from the same court, saying cassandra could be treated harshly and american custody. we got reaction from international journalists,

which had met her to believe the latest court decision was made without proper consideration. what we had this morning was really a rubber stamping. i was. busy in the court of virtually this time and i saw the judge eat, 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 because the ultimate decision does line her hands. and after that, assange could appeal, if she does order the extradition honestly, given a pretty good tells policies you know, i, 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 you k, be in prison for up to 14 years for, you know, publishing government secrets, things that embarrassed 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 mass of the united states and to stop a, you know, a journalist being shipped off to face 2 centuries in 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 us with lots of stamina, long term, and it's very good to see these assange activists coming out 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 boards, johnson government to, to block this extradition. they can do this. they, they, you know, under the extradition treaty between you and you came 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 a spy is the classic textbook, political offense, and so forth. so i'm some pretty big deal. they really do have the power to block this. if 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 ukraine has gone missing as well. gonzalieras colleagues try to track down the reporter, a prominence ukrainian neo nazi has posted a series of and verified claims,

implying the journalist might have been abducted kill gonzalo laira is 54 years old and been living in ukraine for the past few years. he was in kia when the conflict threw up in february and then travelled to ca, call the to cover the fighting there. he's repeatedly criticize the ukrainian government and armed forces for the actions at the end of march and tweeted what he called the truth about the landscape regime. i think he might disappear. did other critics off kia, some of whom were later found dead? he's one of the goods on there is latest interviews before he went missing. there is a constant showing of be done by us reach the break away public republics. 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 way republish. 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 had been stressed out the day before saying is extremely tired, hadn't been sleeping. and that the, he said the crazies are on the street, you can 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 that the city is 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. and every time he appeared on the

duran and other programs, there was a wide audience ready to hear his views because again, one other notable thing is he being and clark of was one of the sole voices. if not this whole voice is 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 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 is daniel med video of a criminal spokes person to meet you. pascals has condemned their suspension by the u. k saying that wimbledon will be at a loss for refusing by refusing to host to play as his some reaction to that bond from social media uses. brushing tennis players are to be banned at wimbledon. that's me not watching it. then. keeping politics out of sports is obviously beyond to russia. 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 band from profess eshola g and fullness sports lecture, alice cash ball. that is nonsense, of course, because wimbledon players did not compete on behalf of the country. they're not

representatives of their country now playing individuals. and so i think that is still time for wimbledon to reconsider this decision. there's this kind of rush of phobia going on and anything that is associated with russia is automatically deemed bad. now that translates into sport and sport has in a certain way, understandably been ad glued by most of sports major governing. ready organizations, but when it comes down to individuals, i think we're playing a different game here because we're punishing on say, way. i mean wimbledon is punishing individuals for committing no crime whatsoever. their only transgression is to have been born in russia or by the russia. washington is now lying in arms racing. us orbits where the us vice president carmella however, is announcing a ban on anti satellite weapons tests. think it would encourage more responsible

behavior in space. yesterday, vice president announced the united states commitment to not conduct the 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 only a rejected several key international treaties that aim to ban the placement 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 lieutenant colonel se is 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, they democrats in the fight and supporters in this country company and they are

tuned into 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, that's part of the message and the other part of it is some misleading to the international community, and that is some because the u. s. is already completed the testing than 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 the us space command, a boeing in particular, which is had a major role in the anti satellite activities. their stocks are, are fine, they are level and going up. ok. so there was no market reaction to a cancellation or a stoppage of 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 our website all tito con ah ah ah ah ah ah, a ah with when else shows seemed wrong

a disdain? because the answer to an engagement, it was the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. we're told one of the hallmarks of western liberalism is the idea and practice of dollars. more specifically, it is said, we should not judge an individual or group based on their race color or creed, but apparently doesn't apply when it comes to russians. bruce or phobia is the new bigotry. ah sean, thank you for agreeing to speak with us today. first of all, i want to ask you about the state of your health or how are you you are in

captivity at the moment.
