1:02 pm
of mario paul in order to avoid more casualties. the hours of cell $53.00 will now be blocked off by russian troops as they wait for the remaining radicals inside to run out of supplies and turn themselves in particularly to promotions on which to i consider the proposed storming of the industrial zone impractical. 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 is no need to climb into these catacombs and crawl under ground through these industrial facilities block 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,
1:03 pm
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 and the, well, the forces of the dentist can logan's people's republics, have been methodically and meticulously kind of clearing out this particular area. but the key thing to understand about what as of solar as of 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 while, a stronghold 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 brushing 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,
1:04 pm
to go for an up front attack and for an upfront storming. so this was, this was the decision that vladimir putin made. basically a very, a good old world medieval, i could say tactic that has been, has proven effective all the way from the dark times. 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 continue 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 surgery shot ashore go, he has essentially laid out the situation. what it is like in mar, you pull, and basically what the russian army faced in the city nurses with russian and in ask republic forces have liberated maria, pull the romanian nationalists forces or sheltered in the as of salt land. on the 11th of march,
1:05 pm
the number of ukrainian troops nationalists and foreign 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 in 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 de nest republic control. nationalist cell mercenaries in austin are blocked firmly from the 1st glance. the city of maria pal 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,
1:06 pm
the as of militants told us that anyone who goes on to the russian control territory with the shell. dad, the soldiers kicked his out, we grabbed our passports and money. when we came back to our apartments, we saw our belongings. every single sto then, as our soldiers have taken everything they did not let us out. they show at the legs of anyone who tried to get out. 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. following the briefing of the kremlin presidential spokesman to meet your passcode stress, the rushes operation and on bass will push on. despite the counselor thought mario pull. for those, the special military operation continues according to plan,
1:07 pm
could marry a pole 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 completely blocked off. and staying with mary paul, doesn't the civilian bodies have been found within the vicinity of a public hospital in the city? russian investigators say they've started a probe on the suspicion that ukrainian forces could have committed war crimes. a warning, some of the following images are disturbing. this video was provided by russia's investigative committee, it shows the destruction of the mario poll hospital, which has allegedly been showered by ukrainian forces, according to russian, and don't yet republic or thirty's. they say 26 bodies have been found that elsewhere in the dawn, yes, republic fragments. so the ukrainian miss sol intercepted by
1:08 pm
a local air defense system have range down on the city of shak choice, reportedly killing at least one person. these on verified image is allegedly show the aftermath of the attack authority say a child was killed and for other people were wounded. the miss all is believe to be told you widely used by the cranium military. and so the city of mario paul, russian forces are continuing to facilitate the evaluation of people who've been caught in the crossfire as well. it is more, i guess you have reports from the thing. russia has given ukrainian nationalists, said mary, you book one last charge. the surrender and leave with during these unilateral sees far civilians who for 2 months had been held as human shields seized their chance to escape the nationalists during
1:09 pm
a troop rotation with one holbert. i hope i have the wrong with one elderly man. we found cooling his way out of the woods, old face with the horrific scene. think a sniper shot him just below the knee. the wound is severe. beats of shattered bone, protrude from his leg. yeah, i know what that going. chilling. just how do i and i wish people wouldn't. yeah. who is the nachos to judge neither postilion off both on legal. wiggers does good luck. lucky, pushy by the word of defeated. an irish like virgin yet it is. it's just a school. what so, like what would have a public with her fit a felony?
1:10 pm
his thoughts still the god. vivica doug was he was here as little wlan. dad. he's okay with nationalists inside the of the people engine problem, bullet force. for the kept phone with you like you able to seek medical treatment you die so i mean the dodge cavities? lot football so not walked through abra quick. i've had you with good luck. if i don't grind that then you do, might you had you, you had, you would have to do that. ah, several dozen people that were able to get out of
1:11 pm
a building for your blood by ukrainian nationalists. and all of them say the same thing that they were prevented and threatened if they try to leave the lawson that threatened to shoot them if they attempted to cross the territory controlled by russian forces. i'll put you around with a 4 percent off with gog above. sonia was gone. so you wanna go to look up the line, any prescription or you can use the one you, i'm dividers, filling it 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. i've got with what you've got, you move it out of the home with the young and the old. even those who have seen
1:12 pm
more in all its ugliness express shock at what has happened here. this 85 year old woman still remembers the german troops here with, [000:00:00;00] with the battle of mary you who has be the showcase of nationalist depravities. yet these people are hilders heroes by the ukrainian government and all who support
1:13 pm
them via the authority of the west and media have shut their eyes and close. there he is. to the horror shoe that you cravy a nationalist. ho, ho dog were a judge, div r t for a barrier, you made a storm of western media condemnation of russia. any poll in italy has revealed that almost half of locals, that blame the u. s. for provoking and fueling the war and new train. italian journalist angela also is among those voicing an alternative view of the conflict in defiance of the mainstream narrative, the remedy code. but we must remember that this war, besides 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 top italian media outlets. dorsey has more than 40 years of experience in journalism. his track record includes being
1:14 pm
a found to of several magazines with a focus on history. last year, he also runs a mad, the italian city of tyrann. we spoke with dorothy to get more of his insight on the contract in ukraine and on bus. and my mentor, welcome each other little technically it's russia that and least 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 it's 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 peace. 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 immense que agreements should be the starting point. but
1:15 pm
zelinski as opposed to that the former, 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. where's the others unfolding in the media with newspapers, television, and the internet? and the latter one is no less serious. media outlets are being shut down and employ to we can rival power zalinski himself basically silenced he 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 seeking 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 in national unity that it was considered liberation back then while covering the situation and the don bass,
1:16 pm
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 if used against the people of the don bass. if you're sanctioned, 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 u. s. cannot provide full control of the weapons. it has sent to ukraine as, according to american government. so says washington recently approved an $800000000.00 package of arms to key as with some
1:17 pm
u. s. allies also chipping in out. he's done quarter investigates more 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 aircraft parts to help them get more . more aircraft in the air with the wars focus now shifted almost entirely on to done 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 would become an artillery conflict. they need support with more artillery, that is what we will be giving them. this is beaca, in addition to many other homes of 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
1:18 pm
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 west 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 us pumps tons of weapons into a country. we saw in livia, in bang ghazi, when the weapons that we sent to libya 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
1:19 pm
. 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. as outrage in germany after unidentified vandals truth swastikas on memorials to soviet soldiers and nazi concentration camp victim's notorious, but was painted in the colors of the ukrainian flag with national slogans. also left the scene of the monuments to soviets. soldiers who helped to liberate germany and to vixen victims of the ravens broke concentration camp. and he's 16 such sites have reported he'd been vandalized across germany with reaction from the director of the simon wise and thought center office in israel. dba will goodies, 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
1:20 pm
their anger, frustration, damage with the russian military store. you carry out in ukraine since the police are hon. because as i said, this is not the way the best way the most effective way to express your protests. marching through to germany. controversy, i don't think they read lisay. so by human, sit on a red army will need to stop the war in ukraine, coughing, 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 error. or meanwhile, in moldova, the president has banned the open wearing of the st. george ribbon, as well as the public display of the letters v and z,
1:21 pm
which are being used by the russian military and ukraine and dumbass. his how mold oven president my asunder, justified the bank. 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. the symbols belong next to other symbols of destruction and death in the ash heap of history. whether citizens wearing the ribbon canal face and up to $500.00, fine people said the bank is credits the country's values as well as insults the memory of the war. but we need to do 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 discredits the values of the republic of moldova, as well as the ideals of those who celebrate the 9th of may. as vic through day
1:22 pm
resume was more blue before 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 of why did they do this? to divide society in the ribbon of saint george has always been and will always be a symbol after great victory, a symbol of courage. this new law is spitting into the souls of the people in austria, their committee which handles the side of the mouth, housing. a concentration camp has refused to host delegations from russia and bela bruce at this year's annual ceremony marking the camps liberation according to the austrian officials inviting representatives from moscow and misc would be incompatible with the oath of the surviving prisoners if they can't for peace in the world now 1000 is one of the most notorious nazi concentration camps, located 20 kilometers east of linds, austria. it was established in april 1938 shortly after austria was annexed by
1:23 pm
neighboring germany. the camp held up 233-5000 people. some 32000 father citizens were executed. there. we heard from some austrian locos about the cam. yes, and concentrate so much. housing was a concentration camp, like many others in europe and the nazis built them. people mainly jews, died there under, in human conditions. this shouldn't happen again. never again mentioned in the unit, so stored squiggly. so i know that things were terrible and my 1000 of being there with my school class, we looked at the buildings and the stairs of death. that was a really weird feeling. what happened there is terrible. 77 years have passed, which was good shooters, martin fiend. it does without international help, the liberation of mouth house and would not have happened. the u. s. helped a lot. if there are many photographs of the dead stacked and starved human corpses, the photos were taken during the liberation. those were really, really terrible images. you have to keep reminding yourself of that so that it
1:24 pm
never happens again. the mother rushes ambassador to austria says there's too much politicized sentiment in europe over the conflict in you train. not them walking until she's amid this ante russian sentiment that can be seen both in the media and the statements are top politicians. i can hardly imagine this decision was not a political one. our work made us get used to various unfair accusations and the information blockade that they are attempting to wage on us. we view this as part of european reality. that is clear, there is a disruption in the public conscience triggered by the one sided coverage of past and present events in ukraine. it's particularly a shame that this is happening to more 1000 since this hurts the feelings of the victims, relatives mixers in you. oh, not thinking to lecture mowdy or india, that's what british prime minister barak johnson's office has said regarding his to day visit to new delhi london and say,
1:25 pm
it does not want to pressure india over its close relations with russia. but marsh johnson may still try to convince new delhi to alter its policies. the british premier has already met some business leaders and visited factory seeking new commercial agreements with india. on friday parish, johnson is set to sit down for talks with prime minister, anyone to remote a one indian professor told is the u. k. is simply following the jr political lead of its american allies. this is a going to proceed. and i didn't take a good stock, you can be willing to have some support in someone with a z a, a, a,

a just not trying to do that with any funds or power plays unfolding in the middle east. off the turkey launched a military operation against kurdish militants in northern iraq, calling to move an anti terrorist operation, however, does concern over the plight of civilians quoting across by him for a long time kurdish ally washington has remained silent on the conflict as ours is rachel, blevins reports cherokee has launched in your venza targeting kurdish rebels in northern iraq on her, of these, this average is militants, is a terrorist group and a long time enemy. but while the conflict garner nonstop coverage, back in 2019, the mainstream media has had a little to say about it this time around. the biggest difference, while the trump administration is no longer in power and the u. s. isn't withdrawing it's true from syria. was in with our heroic commandos and member res, supported by attack, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles and armed unmanned aerial vehicles. arrived at the scene
1:27 pm
by land and by air and captured the determined targets. many terrors were neutralized at the stage at the point we have reached all plans. targets have been captured visuals in the middle east, harrison weeks voicing concerns about the fact that the u. s. has been so focused on ukraine. it seems to have forgotten about the part of the world that has been its main focus for more than 2 decades. iraq is now expressing concerns over the impact turkeys latest defensive will have on the region. the office of the republics president observes, with alarm turkeys continued military operations in iraqi kurdistan. and consider them a violation of the country sovereignty and a threat to national security. whereas and invited campaign for off as of the promise of protecting the kurdish forces in the middle east, who are allies with the u. s. in it's fighting is isis, washington support seems to have evaporated just a few years later. of course, back in 2019 biden. was running against trump, who announced the u. s. ado withdrawing troops from syria after turkey in our plan
1:28 pm
. very similar operation targeting kurdish forces. turkey will soon be moving forward with its long planned operation into northern syria. the united states armed forces will not support or be involved in the operation. and united states forces having defeated the isis territorial caliphate will no longer be in the immediate area. at the time, western media responded with wall, the wall coverage condemning the tr, the administration accusing them of abandoning us allies and claiming the move was to the benefit of the government, syria, and russia. so where is that outraged now and media talking heads and politicians were so quick to forget about the same kurdish allies. they one's claim were essential to stability in the middle east. then washington's other partners might think twice about teaming up with the us in washington. rachel blevins r t does backlash over the binding of tennis players from russia and deliveries from competing at wimbledon. u. k. tennis officials claim that decision was
1:29 pm
unavoidable, given the political situation, but they might review the suspension. if things do change the world's top tennis door, no joke of it, and 9 time wimbledon champion martinez, nav russell over, have denounced the band. 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, it's not like this is no fault of these players. it's not the way to go. i think this is just going for the needed to be all going some of the extended athletes a high profile play is at several if the russians around the global top 30, including current world number 2, daniel med videos. coming in folks person to meet your passcode and slams that suspension by the u. k, saying that wimbleton will be at a loss by refusing to host the play is the head of the women's tennis association. steve simon essays, individual athletes should not be penalized for the decisions of that governments. but he added that quote,
1:30 pm
something very significant can force as to change opposition. we also got reaction to the bond from an honor to coach of russia's tennis t. yes, almost. so i think we need to listen to great players like martin and of rod silver and novel deckervidge who have called the decision to ban the at least unfair. i think there is still enough time for the organizes of wimbledon to realized, ban and outstanding russian and russian at please 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, and i hope that the organizers will change their minds. when all of this is over, our tennis players will show what they're capable of that. but suppose column is down consultant, alan, more say to wimbledon is being hypocritical by banning players who have nothing to do with the politics of back country. and i spoke in cynthia yesterday to visit her now with a lot of international tennis. where's run the world and they just don't see the
