welcome to the weekly here on our international monitors feature scott's bringing you the stories that shape the news this week. we start with the latest on the war in ukraine though. multiple residential areas in the done yes. for public came and in 10 shelling by ukrainian troops on saturday. one woman suffered shrapnel wounds and was taken to hospital. a village in belgrade region of russia was reports of the shells by ukraine. one civilian was injured. more than 100000 people were evacuated from high risk areas of ukraine on the bus for, for the yesterday, according to the russian m. o. d, united nations high commissioner for refugees report to them on the 6000000 people had left ukraine since the beginning of the conflict. mother, you pull russian underneath republic joint rescue services are beginning reconstruction efforts in the devastated city. and on the outskirts of murder, you pulled the stunned off of the us off stall, steel, fight, treat continues. the russian defense ministry is once again states that ukrainian,

i says, can leave the facility. unlike guaranteed humane treatments, if they lay down their arms, the forces of little guns, peoples before they took control of immediate chemical industry facility in the region this week, a correspond from our sister channel or t r, a big census. this report that we're now in the industrial zone in the vicinity of the city of her business. this is the zari i planned for the production of gunpowder, which has been spoken about a lot and was under the control of the ukrainian armed forces sheet. well fortified by ukrainian troops, as in the case of the as of cell plant and more, you show it what is it we can see now this very large territory is under the full control of the united force. it allows nato advisors coordinated the defense of this blad. dozens of foreign mercenaries, including us citizen, were killed here on the phone calls in arabic and other languages suffice. as members were intercepted, who she was, we have recordings of representatives of the nato block here in particular, americans cannot loans in just one plants. the crystal facility we recorded 7

americans who remained on ukrainian soil forever. so you there. we also recorded sniper groups from canada. snipers, ski approached the red dozens of fortified shelters located underground. some of them have 3 floors. these shelters were used by the cranium military during the battles had the z. a plant, as you can see, there are various medicines here. we can see these doors are made from green, fort steel, which protected them from artillery and shelling. this particular shelter could hold up to 150 fighters of the nationalist battalions and foreign mercenaries. elma cla, i live in that women, there are many ne to trophy, so that will now be used in the battles for several, and yet, and least charges, quincy jobs, fellowship boy at the startling, exclusive shells much about that as leading the next battles of several don yet, and lisa chance to sort of, we squeezed him all out of don. yes. really, really. there were battles here and we pushed out the special forces who held this place. so where do i let the combined forces continue there?

offensive to establish full control over the administrative border of the republic . and after that they will be able to determine their own future. so what us are gone ha, dia r t look, ask. an artsy crew came on the shelf i and the dentist for public this week. so cumberland were injured, are now in hospital, but get out the proper lip of ikea. the appellate body, that other i rang. and i did other why? it all happened at the just gas station in the city of dr. chest, in the center of the dentist republic. everyone who was there had been running for cover at the nearby store while mom was hit in the head by shrapnel and died on the spot. rhythm used to move. we were standing here in this place and heard the explosion. we broke away from this place, ran to the gas station building, and a shell flew to this place where we were standing before. there was also a van there which was destroyed by fire. we decided before it designated to move away neighbouring cars to avoid further fire magazines this van,

they were standing in front of the store. it saved us because it took the main blow and only the fragments of the shell reached us. an elderly man was running ahead of us, but he hesitated, lingered on the threshold, and because of this, we didn't have time to run inside right away, the shrapnel ones right through him. he fell on the threshold of this last one, which is the we did did not come in. we literally flew in because we were thrown inside by the blast wave there. we crawled under the counter. the 1st thought was, wow, a shock wave. and then i realized that it was shrapnel. mil surging inflation is causing deep economic woes in the u. s. a. despite that, washington's been dishing out billions in relief funds. so country on the side of the globe, and that's much to the dismay of some hard hit american citizens. it's led to accusations that washington is putting america last with us. certainly the arguments of republican sentence that run pole who this we bought

a speedy votes on a new $40000000000.00 aid package for ukraine. we cannot save ukraine by doing the u. s. economy. americans are feeling the pain. and congress seems intent only on adding to that pain by shoveling more money out the door as fast as they can. so, so us expenditure on a ukraine is now close to $14000000000.00. more than half of this amounts has gone on defense in the white house funds to send yet more money to the country. missing that the vast majority of the new package will also go on military assets. pentagon spokesperson, john kirby says, a new package of 8 must be passed quickly by may the 19th. so avoid any interruptions. many americans are struggling to meet their basic needs as the annual inflation rates in the country remains close to a 40 year high. the producer price index, which trucks, how much money factors get for products that their initial sale rose 11 percent from a year ago. not according to the bureau of labor statistics. while the american automobile

association reports the prices on gasoline have increased by over 30 percent and over 40 percent on diesel ortiz. rachel blevins has more. all additions are supposed to represent the people who elect them and put their interest 1st, but many us lawmakers appear to be promoting the interest of an entirely different country. this congress refused to approve around $10000000.00 in cobit 19 relief funding for americans. previously, i had recommended the congress take over due action on much needed funding for coal, the treatments, vaccines, and tests as part of the ukraine supplemental bill. however, i have been informed by congressional leaders in both parties that such an addition would slow down action on the urgently needed ukrainian aid. so congress is making it clear that it's funding for ukraine 1st in cobra, really for american 2nd, was done lawmakers openly saying that ukraine is their top priority. i think we all

agree. the most important thing going on in the world right now is the war in ukraine, while americans may not be taking the streets to approach as they are voicing their frustrations on social media. with the questioning why us politicians are voting with americans in mind. they got money for wars, but can't feed the poor no matter how bad things may seem, we can always count on our government to have an extra multi 1000000000 dollar check laying around to prolong a war on the other side of the planet. for those who are concerned about the actions of their elected representatives, how figure nancy pelosi suggest taking a sort of biblical approach. so when you're home thinking, what does this all about? just think about when i was hungry, you fed me in the gospel of matthew. okay, but in this case, who is feeding america and more specifically, their children, more than 10000 georgia across the country are reporting shortages of baby formula

with 6 states saying that more than half of their supply is out of stock. all of the prices continue to store with reports from april, showing that inflation in the us remains at 40 your high domestically in the u. s. the march inflation report showed that food prices for home consumption were up 10 percent year over year. that's the largest increase we've seen and though, or a 40 year period, those storing price that the for some americans move out of major cities in search of more affordable life. while it was just weeks ago, the bite and warned of a global food crisis, he announced new sanctions against russia. here in the us, food shortages have started to become a reality, as food bangs across the country report increased demand for the americans who can't afford the prices at the grocery store. and it's not just the us in the u. k . a recent study found the more than 2000000 adult say they can't afford to eat every day. the prices continue to store with even the bank of england predicting

that inflation will hit 10 percent this year. meanwhile, prince charles, adjust the crisis while lavishly sitting on a golden throne in a golden room with lots of golden accessories and managed his government. priority is to grow and strength from the economy and help ease the cost of living for families. the u. k is also following in the footsteps of its american allies with prime minister, boers, johnson boasting about sending 450000000 pounds of tax payers money to ukraine. the opposition was quick to call him out, to out of pocket to meet the challenges of the moment too tired to cross the opportunities up a future that time has passed. so is western politicians continue to go above and beyond for ukraine, while their own people think deeper into crisis. they're making it crystal clear, just what their top priorities are and what they think they can get away with. while still keeping their coveted political titles in washington,

rachel blevins archie more than 1000000 ukrainian civilians have fled to russia to escape the war with local authorities, providing them with supplies and practical supports. thus, despite ukrainian governments claims that refugees are being forcibly located in a special report, we hear from some who have headed east to seek refuge in russia. ukraine has repeatedly accused russia of deliberately targeting civilians, not letting anyone escape the fighting to base russian attacks on a kindergarten, an orphanage, or war crimes. and a violation of the rome statute. together with the office of the attorney general, we are collecting these and other material, which we will immediately transfer to the hague or response to this act is inevitable. elect on the 29th of march, i told you that russian occupants destroyed 773 educational institutions in our country. now it is twice that number 1580 for these

a kindergarten schools and universities. the occupies of already killed $220.00 ukrainian children at the same schools and kennedy gardens, that as of neo nazis and regular troops alike like to use so much as their basis. same story with the humanitarian corridor was facilitated by cave only on paper. a call enjoying i have not seen humanitarian corridors from the ukrainian site. the ukrainian military were in the city, but they didn't do anything. vitale met the war in ukraine, controlled mario pope, and lived to see victory there with russian banners all around. mother don't shudder. we'll ukrainian soldiers looted broke open all the shops. people just got left overs after the russian military entered the city and some one needed help. they tend to them for medicine. for example. sometimes they gave russians, they helped in general another. eventually they managed to leave into russia, something they could never do,

while ukrainian forces had the grip on the city and the face of every civilian there. we've been planning to move for a long time, but couldn't persuade my mother. but on april, the 1st 2 shells were fired near our house and killed one woman and a young guy. they tried to save him, take him to the hospital, but the ukranian troops did not let him through. after this incident, we decided to leave murray, poor russian emergency services took st. valez dusk and there we had to pass filtration with the civilian population was screened out from the military who disguised themselves the civilians. course not everyone moved to russia without hesitation or fear. the decision to leave home is rarely taken lightly, especially if your child is fighting for the side, russia considers its enemy moiety will not run the hulu graham. and my son is a ukrainian soldier while crossing the border. i didn't hide anything, i was calm, you went into the territory, refresh and civil and tears helped me. they didn't leave me. my son honestly told

me mom, go to the russian border, who go to russia, they will help you there. my son asked me to, i thought i may go to jail, but no one offended me. she says she glove to return. if only though there was actually anything to return to your dom, we're the up now i plan to go to my sister, but if nothing happens, i think the russian authorities will help me. i would like to go home, but most likely i won't come back. there is no way to go back till everything was bombed out and i don't trash ukrainians. awe of next inside the ghost town of maria, for which enjoyed more than 2 months of incense fighting, leaving people there in the midst of devastation or correspondence. romance caused to have an 3 fillets of have been reporting from the epicenter of the battle and reveal what they witnessed on the front line. in a new documentary, you can watch the full story throughout the day. they are not international. a

little bit in the ground skill, there was only shows 0, one of someone with a new model put mr. phillip muddy will put a new plan was college a possibly can just sit in the apartment with well done with it. just give us a little bit. would you look at it for us? no, absolutely not. a key to just going over for you. most people don't get anything for me about the can you please need those to per year?

who do you know? well, did you have anybody else still could get this just the punch it in now to secured your stuff? okay, so we bill by external drive. and can you try this just focused on lashania? this is shamika. can you do claudio michelin you do is johnny? it's bob oliver. it was time we'll see what, what sir. i need a regular reward nor does it put your on style and go to one you perfectly know, dorm is still in, grabs show on the ceiling. you will a bottom of the army in the show rush has gotten great. brian. i

a with them off charlie, a corporate to brochure with bush and boiler sure. just wanted to talk to russia lu. yeah. that's a rush that doesn't go. you can. you could please it he would you please if you don't like it? oh yes. if you could, of course can. will dealer with a new boy. yeah. a a guess just a minute. don't mute.

we moved it very much of the amount in bash permanent russian politician to meet you media has claimed the g 7 countries would rather quotes continue a proxy war with russia instead of dealing with issues in their own countries. it came up to the g 7 group of leading world economies said they were continue delivering arms to ukraine for as long as it takes the g 7 also said that they would never recognize the independence of the done. yes, no guns republics. and the former russian president claimed that will be up to the people in those areas to decide is damon came as the foreign ministers of the g. 7 group met in germany, where the country is also pledged to cut reliance on russian energy supplies and imposed the sanctions. i could make an independent journalist jason, michael believe such statements show the balance of power shifting. this statement of non recognition about the shifting of borders is something we saw in the build

up of course, to world war one. it's something that led into the, the alliance shaping and world war 2. so yeah, it's a familiar thing. and the familiarity of it should reminders of just how dangerous this situation can be. and this happens when we have a re shaping of the balance of power. where we're in a situation where the, the unit polarity, the singular superpower status of united states is being challenged. and of course, russia is that challenge and the deformed this is taking, is a solidifying of the nato alliance in eastern europe. we're seeing this with and know with finland and sweden and it's happening in, in ukraine. g 7 foreign ministers also called for china to stop allegedly helping

moscow avoid sanctions and providing military support. we're calling china not to assist russia in. it's were for aggression against ukraine not to undermine sanctions, and both in russia for its attack against the silver to and territorial integrity of ukraine, not to justify russian action in ukraine and to disease from engaging information. manipulation is information and other means to legitimize rushes worth aggression against ukraine. meanwhile, the european anti fake news agency has started publishing and chinese. i mean to debunk false information over the war in ukraine. one of the articles contained information about biological laboratories, which back in march, russia accuse ukraine on the u. s. of using to develop bio weapons. the u vs. this info is a projects a means to track an address vs, so called this information campaigns that could affect the you and his member states. it also aims to help your opinions develop resistance to media manipulation

. the vice chairman of the shanghai center for impact on international studies. nelson wong, please voices of different countries should be heard. it's a lack of confidence in the sense of the west and led by the us has, has a habit of manipulating the public opinion and the way narrative be come bait. and when it comes to countries like china also wants to voice outage of different matters of people do not get used to it's more just different countries needs to be heard everywhere. and this is what countries that promotes freedom of speech. this is totally wrong. the main idea is basically to contain charles about button to as we have observed it. but this is not, this is not right and it's not going to be successful. well, we know so, so that we come from different cultures. of people tend to take this as a hostess,

the rising of trying to as a whole style act, which is wrong. and just before we go, let's bring you some highlights of this year's big 3 day celebrations. we call the memory of those who lost their lives, fighting against naziism in world war 2. ah . with a more peaceful life, slowly returning to cities in ukraine and dom bus now in control of joint russian done yet is going to guns forces. i worked for the 9th of mesa, abrasions, replaced front line, showing with the southern ukrainian cities of johnston,

and there were some forces are currently positioned joined in the commemoration for the 1st time in many years. residents of the don bus is done yet lou guns also took part in the festivities. and for one day, lou ganske city was renamed as voters. she'll have grad, which is it. soviet name falling a public initiative. locals were also able to attend an exhibition of on seas during the latest fighting against ukrainian nationalists over in russia, the largest military parade traditionally took place in moscow during the day to day speech on red square by the mid points in praise. the immense sacrifice made by the soviet people, some 27000000 people lost their lives in the great war. and they also to some parallels between the past and the current conflicts and ukraine. so megan is not system everything pointed to the fact that the clash against new knotty followers that the united states and their satellites put

a stake on was something that had to happen. it was becoming more and more dangerous with every passing day in russia prevented this facility. we had to do this. it was timely and it was the only right thing to do. it was the decision of a strong sovereign, an independent country. was your fighting for your homeland and its future to ensure that no one forgets the lessons of the 2nd world war, so that there is no place in the world for executioners punish and nazi st. louis abuse

boats amid the ukraine conflicts and the resulting anti russian sentiment is spread throughout much of the world. the soviet contribution to the victory over naziism in world war 2 is funny, so increasingly overlooked as the conflicts in ukraine goes on. western countries have been trying to twist certain positive history, especially the role of the soviet union in fighting fascism and naziism. the desecration or demolition of soviet era monuments and cemeteries has been taken to a new level, getting rid of soviet symbols as the responsibility of all local administrations. there are about 60 places on our list where such symbolism needs to be removed. moscow has repeatedly condemned walsall calling on it not to follow the lead of radical politicians. this is not the 1st time we have come across such a shameful phenomenon. the war against soviet monuments in poland. everything that is happening in poland now is happening in violation of bilateral borges and the news of civilized communication. traditional tokens of awareness have not escaped

detention either. the st. george as ribbon a case symbol in russia and abroad and use for commemorating world war 2 east in front veterans has been banned in moldova. the president said, the ribbons place is in the trash can of history of the western politicians are also not mincing their words when it comes to comparisons between the conflict and ukraine and world war 2. every russian has learned about the siege of leningrad during world war 2. sadly, history has repeated itself, but now it's the russian government cruelly starving ukrainian cities taking 2 completely different situations including them together. one that involves starving a city into submission. the other that has attempted humanitarian corridors in a deliveries and the western media has been going even further in trying to draw historical parallels. the red army engaged in branford atrocities and massacres during its occupation of a some poland finn and other european countries. in 939. 1941 seems nowadays

from butcher mary. your pull car, cough and other ukrainian cities show that russian soldiers over the past 10 weeks have perpetrated atrocities against civilians in ukraine. some articles have given space for new interpretations of victory day. as rushes who on ukraine continues the day will take on you, meaning it's very much about galvanizing support for russia, the present and showing off the strength of rushes, military forces us diplomats have even accused the soviet union of being an ally of the nazis by cherry picking specific episodes as of a much bigger historical context put in likes to accuse his victims of b, nazis. but it's important to remember that in 1939, that's a germany on the soviet union, son and non aggression pact, only after the knots is launched. a surprise attack on the ussr. in june 1941, the the soviet union joined the anti struggle. all of this makes not just a revision of the outcome of world war 2 and the bloody sacrifices of the soviet

people they've been canceled. muslim functional, we hear that lately, the west. there are more and more warts that the documents signed by the soviet to tell terry and regime which consolidated the results of the 2nd world war should no longer be carried out. the results of the 2nd world war, as well as the sacrifices made by our people on the altar of victory over nazis, our sacred. but if i give them a while, those of the new stories, the shape, the weak hair on naughty international from on any of them had o it's r t dot com. my name is peter scott, on whatever you up to i hope you having a great weekend. ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense, bearing dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful,

very critical time. time to sit down and talk. in louisa hunter, russian state will never. i've stayed on the no slam skiing div, asking him then i'll slap a group in the 55 when. okay, so mine is 25 i'm speaking with. we will van in the european union, the kremlin media machine. the state on russia today and split ortiz spoke neck, given our video agency, roughly all band on youtube said, with

a look around, scale was gone. more don't split. i did the in as also book with football. at this point with doors, kim more go to just she's mark machine, your precious cushion, boiling q might be multi grain a no one is a bmw but you still want to for your for.
