ah ah, bill again, i consider the proposal storming of the industrial zone impractical. i order you to cancel it. the other person kohls off the assault on the as of style factory and mario paul warning it would lead to casualties among the russian troops. while the remaining ukrainian forces inside the $45.00 plants are expected to run out of supplies and surrender. as russia defense ministers, they is the civilian areas of mario paul has been fully committed of radical troops and residents can now start going back to normal life. we had from some of the locals. he managed chiefly the phi thing around the eyes of tell that story. bruce did not. you have to do it. we walked out to get water and

a sniper shot me in the leg. i didn't see what was, but it wasn't an area controlled by the ukrainians. i spoke to the ends of militants told us, the tenuous goes on to the russian control territory would be showed dead. and they'd overwhelming the anti russian coverage of the war in western media. a veteran italian journalist defies the mainstream narrative and say the u. s. is actually to blame for provoking conflicts. it's the united states that prompted russia to do that. it states the number of publications, including with nato expansion, the united states figured out that it's losing cloud is a global headroom. so it's behavior is a kind of a reaction with i will welcome this is on see international with the latest world news headlines is good to have you with us. now a lot of my patient has cancelled the storming at the last stronghold of ukrainian

forces inside the dumbass city of mariel pole. in order to avoid more casualties of style factory and will now be blocked off by russian troops as they wait for the remaining radicals. inside to run out of supplies and tend themselves, it put a glue from which lucian, i consider the proposed storming of the industrial zone in practical. i order you to cancel it. this is a time when we must think, we must always think, but even more so in this case, about preserving the live and health of our soldiers and officers. there's no need to climb into these catacombs and crawl under ground through these industrial facilities. blocked off this industrial area so that the fly doesn't fly through. once again, invite everyone who has not yet laid down their arms to do so. the russian side guarantees their lives. putting such an important center in the south as mary you pull under control is a success. congratulations. as of style or as of steel,

as it can be translated into english was the final and is, remains the final stronghold of all the ukrainian, you know, forces troops, nationalists that remain in the key port, city of mario. but it's been days since the russian forces under, well, the forces of the dentist can look guns, people's republics have been methodically and meticulously kind of clearing out of this, this particular area. but the key thing to understand about what as of salary as a feel is, it's not just your regular factory. imagine a 9 story building, but going all the way under ground. so these are the catacombs, the 2 storm a, a well, a strong hold, like this would mean would mean casualties. and quite likely, basically, the amount of troops you'd need to just surround and besiege this plant, which is what the russian president has ordered to do. is probably roughly equal to the amount of men that russia would have lost if it was to go unto well,

to go for an up front attack and for an up front storming. so this was a, this was the decision that vladimir put, made basically a very good old woman. medieval, i could say tactic that has been, has proven effective all the way from the dock times. you besieged people, you cut them off from, you know, supply chains, and eventually they run out of food. they run out of water and they have no other choice but to come out. but russia has insisted that it will create and continued to create opportunities for them. to lay down arms and, you know, join almost 2000 of their brothers in arms who have already chosen to lay down arms and become prisoners of war. the defense minister sergio chart assured go he has essentially laid out the situation what it is like and murray, you pull and basically what the russian army faced in the city nurses with russian and in ask republic forces have liberated marie up all the remaining national forces are sheltered in the as of salt land. as on the 11th of march,

the number of the current in troops nationalists and for mercenaries was around 8100 people during the liberation more than 4000 were killed. 1478 captured the others more than a 2000 are blocked in as of style nationalists turned almost all the residential buildings into permanent fire and positions. in the lower stages, there were armored vehicles and artillery in the upper stivers and anti tank missiles. in the middle and in the basements, there were civilians, as human shields and retreating, ukrainian and nationalists forces were hiding behind civilians. as of now the whole marie, opal is now under russian and dentist, republic control nationalists and mercenaries in austin are blocked firmly from the 1st glance. the city of mario to looks like a ghost town essentially because almost all buildings have been well damaged in the course. of war because essentially we as, as we've been reporting from the city and as we've been hearing from the locals who were evicted from the apartments and whose apartments were turned into, you know, firing positions by nationalist. because i didn't,

the as of militants told us that anyone who goes on to the russian control territory, the shall dead. the soldiers kicked us out. we grabbed our passports and money. when we came back to our apartments, we saw our belongings. everything was sto then, as our soldiers have taken everything they did not let us out. they shot at the legs of anyone who tried to get our act. well, essentially there are concerns that there may be civilians hiding in the as of steel plant or in the catacombs as well, according to the russian defense ministry. those are the relatives of the fighters who are, who remain there. and again, according to the russian defense ministry, every opportunity will be provided for everyone willing to, you know, lay down arms and willing to come out safely. every opportunity will be provided for them. by following the briefing at the crime name, presidential presidential spokesman to meet your passcode stressed at russia's operation and on bass will push on. despite the cancelled assault in merrill poll, muted director for the special military operation continues. according to plan

mario paul, which had turned into a concentration of ukrainian nationalist formations, has been liberated today. the minister of defense reported that it's now possible to start going back to a peaceful life, including the return of the civilian population. as for the, as if still factory, it is a separate facility inside which the remaining ukrainian nationalists are completely blocked off. staying with marianne poll, dozens of civilian bodies have been found within the vicinity of the public hospital in the city motion. investigators say they've started a probe on the suspicion that ukrainian forces could have committed war crimes are wanting. some of the following images are disturbing. as video was provided by russia's investigative committee, it shows the destruction of the mario pull hospital, which had allegedly been showered by ukrainian forces as, according to russian and don, yes, for public authorities. they say 26 bodies have been found there elsewhere in the don. yes, republic, fragments of a ukrainian miss sol, intercepted by

a local defense system of re down on the city of shack tools, reportedly killing at least one person. these unverified images allegedly showed the aftermath of the attack authorities say a child was killed and for the people were wounded. that miss san is believed to have been told. could you widely used by the ukrainian military? well inside the city of mario pub, russian forces are continuing to facilitate the evacuation of people who've been caught in the crossfire as well as he's more against the report from the thing. russia has given ukrainian nationalist, said mary, you bought one last chance. the surrender and leave with during these unilateral sees for civilians who for 2 months had been held as human shields seize their chance to escape the nationalists during her troop rotation.

but it was bundled with one elderly man we found calling his way out of the war zone. for this was a horrific scene. thought a sniper shot him just below the knee. the wound is severe. beats of shattered bone, protrude from his leg. with corn chill juice. how do i am? i wish people wouldn't. yeah. who is the nationalist udette's? neither for a civilian also needle. wiggers sounds good. valerie, look lucky, pushy by the word of a defeated, an irish life changing. eventually just for school was still, but we would have

a public with her fit a stanley. his lewisville dot had been vivica done was he was here, little wlan dad. you soccer stylist with nationalists inside the of the people of engine. this is a problem of all of these have phone with you back. you able to seek medical treatment today. so i me on the touch cases law football stolid walked through abra. i've had you with good luck. if i don't grind that then you might be with you. i did it. would you have to do that? yeah. several dozen people with able to get off have

a building another place. what your bud, bye. yeah. ukrainian nationalists and all of them say the same thing that they will prevent it and threaten that. they try to leave the lawson that threatened to shoot them if they attempted to cross in the territory controlled by russian forces. but you were actually with gog above. sonia was gone. so you wanna go to like a couple of, i mean the perspective, are you the one you i'm dividers, feeling of with all of them are dirty, exhausted, and visibly crushed. they all have a horror story to tell. the nationalists used and abused them all for a

job. the young and the old, even those who have seen more in all its ugliness, express shock at what has happened here. these 85 year old woman still remembers the german troops here with, [000:00:00;00] with the value of mary you, who has be the shoe case of nationalist depravities. yet these people are hilda's

heroes by the ukrainian government and all who support them via the entirety of the western media have shut their eyes and close. there he is. to the horror shoe that you cravy a nationalist. ho, ho dog. we're a judge, div r t for a barrier i meant to storm of western media condemnation of russia. a prominent italian journalist has suggested all and alternative view of the ongoing war flying in the face of the mainstream narrative, angelo dorsey says the u. s. is actually to blame for provoking the conflict. the journalist made this his point on italian national television bid memory code, but we must remember that this war decides everything that we're talking about is a war of the united states against europe. the you is the real object of this war. the united states is interested in severing ties between russian europe and also china, a contributor to talk italian media outlets to osi has more than 40 years of experience

in journalism. his track record includes being a founder of several magazines with a focus on history. last year he also ran for man of the italian city of tour, and we spoke with it also to get more of his insights on the conflict in ukraine and on bus. my middle america, each other little technically it's russia that unleashed the war. but in my view, it's the united states that prompted russia to do that. it staged a number of provocations, including with nato expansion. the united states figured out that it's losing cloud as a global hagaman. so his behavior is a kind of a reaction. it definitely doesn't want to put up with its new role amid a shift into paula centric world. in my view, zalinski is now the main obstacle to achieving piece. it's obvious that he's ready to sacrifice his country in his people in order to stain power. he's also hindering a diplomatic solution. if we want peace talks to succeed, then the compliance with uminski agreements should be the starting point. but

zelinski as opposed to that in from an i think that to day we're seeing 2 wars being fought simultaneously. one is being waged with arms bombs and missiles on the battlefield, whereas the other is unfolding in the media with newspapers, television, and the internet. and the latter one is no less serious. future media outlets are being shut down and deploy to we can arrival power. zelinski himself basically silenced the opposition. so it's not correct to say that the war and defense of zalinski equals a war in defense of democracy. i have never before seen must media acting as indecently as they do. now. i'm struggling for the truth. second, to my own opinion, without buying into the official version. great of if a my daughter was in crimea during the referendum, she worked, there is a photo journalist and sent me images showing people's joy about returning to russia. that the referendum embodied a national unity that it was considered liberation back then while covering the

situation and the don bass, she managed to survive miracle asleep while her 30 year old colleague was killed in a mortar fire. she was very upset to see the violence that the authorities and key of used against the people of the don bass sanctions. never heard governments. in fact they heard the population and because of that they are moral. they are also inefficient. if their objective is to shift power in moscow. furthermore, the sanctions have already impacted european economies. the italian economy has already suffered and it's going to get worse. only the united states will manage to get away with it. probably for now the you doesn't see that i'm surprised by how short sighted our politicians are. the us cannot provide full control of the weapons. it has sent to ukraine us according to american governance sources. or can some recently approved at 800000000 dollar package of arms to key as with the,

with some of the u. s. allies also chipping in on he's on quarter investigates war military aid is on its way from the west to ukraine. this time a bunch of rusting fighter jets, they have received additional aircraft and the air aircraft parts to help them get more, more aircraft in the air with the wars focus now shifted almost entirely on to don boss. and now the need is changed because now the wars changed because now the russians have prioritized the dumbass area and that's a whole different level of fighting, a whole different type of fighting. how that has any bearing on why even more military hardware should be dumped into ukraine is anyone's guess. but it's convincing enough for washington's ally london to dedicate even more heavy weapons to ukraine's command. this will become an artillery conflict. they need support with more, tillery, that is what we will be giving them is beaca. in addition to many other homes of support, the seemingly never ending stream of gunpowder and steel continues to flow despite the fact that many know that these weapons are impossible to keep track of. even

now the west doesn't seem to be listening to the experts were already ringing the alarm bells with a substantial stockpile of weapons, few barriers, taxing arms, and millions of small arms and light weapons on the black market. ukraine is believed to have one of the largest arms trafficking markets in europe. and so the west continues to send shipment after shipment of weapons, all to the tune of anti war slogans. a bit contradictory to say the least. it's extraordinarily dangerous that the u. s. is not able to track these arms that are going into ukraine. we have numerous examples in recent history, even of the disasters that can happen when the u. s. pumps tons of weapons into a country we thought and livia, in been ghazi when the weapons that we sent to livia to overthrow gadhafi ended up in syria in the hands of al qaeda in isis. we saw this just recently in afghanistan, the u. s. essentially provided all the arms necessary for the taliban government

because the us ran away and left all these weapons. so there's no accounting for these weapons. it's extraordinarily dangerous. and frankly, it's hard to believe that europe is stupid enough to allow this to happen in their back yard. they will be the victims when these arms wind up in the hands of people that they don't want to have them. felons, parliament has become a debate on whether the country should join nato countries. prime minister say the decision will be made in the near future. neighboring sweden is also considering joining the military block. what is maintaining a close? punish with nato, finland and sweden have traditionally stuck to know alignment. if finance parliament make a decision to join nato, this would fundamentally change the country's political course. and german economist told us finland is now under western pressure to join the block. they had eaten much pressure from the nato and the u. s. on finland to join the nato. now, otherwise, it's not, it doesn't make any sense. okay,

man joining the nato. the americans need new allies, father, me to, to join the dialogue. and they need more allies to join against russia, which is the new dominant force on the re, could get the new dominant force on your asian continent. i personally don't see any threat to compete. payment has be neutral for the entire cold war era. the female has been a neutral in the very difficult era for russia when the l. c. and the yellow era when many disruptions and many economic problems arose. why? now i don't see any interest in russia doing any harm to finland because you're strategically for russia. i've been told be interesting and it has nothing what may

could what they could want to have or something. so i don't see any, any crash from the deer strategic point for finland from the standpoint of finish. people does backlash over the binding of tennis players from russia and salaries from competing at wimbledon. u. k. tennis officials came that decision was unavoidable, given the political situation, but they might review the suspension if things do change, but well, number one, job, because at times 9 time wimbledon champion martina naturalize, i have denounced that than i cannot support the wimbledon decision. it's not the athletes fault. when politics interfere with sports, it usually doesn't turn out well. exclusion is not like this is, is no fault of these players. is not the way to go. i think this is just going further that then than needed to be going some of the excluded athletes,

a high profile players. several of the russians are ranked in the top in the global tub. so see including current was number 2, daniel med videos, criminal spokes person to meet your past got slammed their suspension by the u. k, saying that wimbledon will be at a loss by refusing to host the players. the head of the women's tennis association . steve simon says, individual athletes should not be penalized for the decisions of their governments, but he added that quote, something very significant can force is to change our position. we also got reaction to the band from an honor to coach of rushes, tennis team jo groomers through. i think we need to listen to great players like martin and about silver and lord deckervidge have called the decision to about the at least unfair. i think there is to enough time for the organizers of wimbledon to realize the man and i'll send in russian and garage that at least is nonsense and is a hostile policy that should have nothing to do with support which should stay out of politics. i believe that this position undermines the prestige of wimbledon. i

hope that the organizers will change their minds. when all this is over, our tennis players will show what they are capable of. does outrage in germany after unidentified vandals drew swell stickers on memorials to soviet soldiers and nazi concentration. camp victims, notorious symbol was painted in the colors of a ukrainian flag with nationalist slogans also left the scene of the monuments to soviet soldiers who how to liberate germany. and the victims of the ravens broke concentration camp. and he's 16 such sites have reportedly been vandalized across germany who got reaction from the director of the simon vice and whole center office. and as well, depot didn't obviously say that the russian or military is acting or something similar to the nazis, which is not true because they're not denazi's. they tried to express their anger

and frustration to damage the russian military story, carry out ukraine since the police are hon. cuz as i said, the way the best way, the most with army, with or in ukraine. meanwhile across in poland, the institute of national memory has started to demolish monuments to soviets, soldiers, polish officials have announced their plans to topple around 60 such sites in that country saying they belong to a different long gone era. meanwhile, in moldova, the president has bonds. the public wearing of the st. george ripping as well as the public display of the letters v and z, which are being used by the russian military and ukraine and on boss. the promotion of false failures should be severely punished because this is

a real danger to security in consciousness. we must say a firm no to war and its symbols, and insist on their exclusion from our communities. this symbols belong next to other symbols of destruction and death in the ash heap of history. whether citizens wearing the weapon canal face up to $500.00, fine people say the bond discredits the countries values as well as in. so c, memory of the war with the descendants of the victors in the face of the president's party have been the reuben of saint george, even though they are living under peaceful skies. thanks to those who won world war 2. i think this move this credit to values of the republic of moldova, as well as the ideals of those who celebrate the 9th, of may as vic through day. it is impossible during apostle for which the president's party regime in moldova has adopted a scenario inflicted on him by the west, which is also what happened with the baltic states and ukraine. unfortunately,

they simply followed the command cuz why did they do this? to divide society a ribbon of saint george has always been and will always be a symbol of the great victory, a symbol of courage. this new law is spitting into the souls of the people. let's return now to one of our earlier stories. the backlash over the banning of tennis players from russia and bell erased from competing at win wimbledon u. k. tennis officials claim that decision was unavoidable, given the political situation, but they might review the suspension of things. do change the world number one event, jock of a chance, 9 time wimbleton champion martinez, nav russell over have denounced the ban. let discuss this with the am sports columnist and consultant alan. more now. thanks for joining us on the program. alan, what do you make of the reaction to the band from non russian tennis stars including novak dock of which do you expect this backlash to where make a difference? unfortunately no nicky, no spoken since yesterday with

a lot of national tennis players render world either are present the ones professionals and they're just out to be in shock with even i spoke with 2 ukranian players and they said that you know that they know who they double players i knew played quite often year or so juniors and as professionals are seniors and they just don't see distension. if you think that you know, school should be outside us genes for we all understand that yes, team sports is bigger is for different individuals. ultimately they're playing for themselves or pay for money and so forth. so i think it's just, it's, you know, beyond the opportunity at this stage, it's really, really shocking. do you think bonding russian athletes can actually change the political situation or perhaps a different motive via yeah, i think it's very strange. i mean when we could say that. busy on the power, so i didn't set off because they bond eventually, davis, cook,

teens and fed cookies. i cemented women team events, but still that african players were winning wimbledon titles, for example, in doubles like kevin corridor. b macmillan. they were still playing and competing equivalent, even though the country was bond owner because they were practicing it. so i think that the, the hypocritical nature to, to face nature will. and in this, it goes beyond virtual signaling. it, it's just very strange. i just stuck with a change. i think it's only going to sport to tennis and it's actually the whole cause we're trying to bring peace to ukraine, priest in the world. it's just an absolute, it's, it's the army, any kind of comprehension, this kind of, well, i would say disgraceful, but it's also really, really self. u. k. tennis officials do say that they will probably review that decision if circumstances change significantly. what do you think it's going to take for them to find the athletes?

those are the same as doping. nicky, we've seen this that it doesn't matter what the next, the next thing that the processed the job the bar keeps going open up. and we, we seen also with the american administration that short day with a regime change in russia. nothing is going to make a difference. so i don't see this change before wimbledon. i'm not really the reaction of the atp and w t a who i criticized on a regular basis as you know because they have some really or sports administration wimbleton going on beyond all that. so i don't see any way out of this wimbley they, they've been, they've targeted washing refund, better ocean players, which is again surprising what they've only said, russian russian, russia, russian in this. so it's very, very strange. it's a very 40 port and you know,

statements, decision, but then to get with, with nothing, absolutely nothing surprising with them. and this suspension is probably going to affect the career is all these top players like russians. daniel met with the what all tentative to the russians have now. well, let's just say, you know, he's not like great on graph. so it's not going to be that difficult for him. and of course you were, he would hope that he would try to win. you know, we'd be looking more over the doubt that they would be doing the golf course heroes . what's peel is a lot of players. i mean, you know, i've managed where she's gone unwinnable and they all say every single times there wasn't spoken to. yes. and you today and all the tense, there's a managed, managed work would be for no matter what code she go for. wimbledon is like the world tennis. it's like, you know, when you face your world, it is this, the, this wimbledon comes along, you know,
