ah ah, russia releases footage of over 250 ukranian soldiers, mostly from the ultra nationalist elf battalion who surrendered in the city of modern people after a long siege. kiev, however, is betraying the event as an evacuation. also ahead on the program, western media outlets are marked for re laying the normative coming out of key and by releasing and accurate videos without proper fact checks. we'll take a look at a number of examples in italian journalists. questions that west coverage of the ukraine conflict, but also claiming division is widening between his government's actions and how that kind of free citizens feel about rushing on to all the world's richest. people

openly criticize that by the administration for its role in the soaring inflation, gripping america with broadcasting for moscow. this is art. see, my name's unit o'neill on 30 minutes of news and views start. know the russian defense ministry saves hundreds of ukrainian neo nazi ourself battalion members and ukrainian service men who were surrounded in the ass off cell steel plant. in marty you, pl. have surrendered, ruinous. you let us just give you that offer as russian armed forces continue. a special military operation in ukraine when the surrender of the militants of the nationalist is av battalion and ukrainian service men who were surrounded at the as austell plant. in mary you, paul began yesterday. as of now, $265.00 militants have laid down their arms, including $51.00 who were seriously wounded,

oval toilet. all of those in need of medical care were sent for treatment to the hospital in nova, as oscar in the danish people's republic. or you're looking to sit on the quote when we're just outside the hospital in the town of no vas office. this is where those injured from the catacombs of the eyes of star feel works are being admitted fast. in fact, the was of this medical facility have seen the 1st batch of injured prisoners of war all ready. and we've talked to the medics and to the volunteers and they're telling me that those injure they are in a very poor state and a very difficult condition because down there under ground, they didn't have access to proper medicine. in fact, they had access to barely any medicine at all, so many of their wounds are infected this past. and as it's, it's very nasty and it's unclear as to will. some of them will be able to retain, to keep their limbs, for instance. now we've just come from maria full heads, just over an hour drive from here to as of style. and then, well,

we saw dozens of buses lined up along the road just outside the factory just outside the plans. and along with them as military vehicles there, as well as a military personnel of all sorts and this column and stretches of 4 hundreds of meters. so something very massive is expected there. so because, well again, that's more than 2000 people who are well surrendering right now. the ukranian sized aside says it's an evacuation, it is naught, it is a surrender. and so they are. so it is a lengthy process. so it takes and for them to all, to be filtered and to be put on buses and to be put his not, it's not fast again, just a quick reminder for you, for over, for well over a month, more than 2000 people were hold up deep on the ground in the catacombs under the as of style though, they were essentially they were the only garrison left in mar,

hugo. they were completely surrounded by the russian for people's republic. they was shelled relentlessly. they tried the truck, the support of their government. they were abandoned by cave and by their commodities, please to the pope to national community help didn't come. so now they are surrendering. they made this decision. they are saying that this was prompted by the command from whoa, from above somewhere from there for, from, from key of. but again, this is, they are capitulating. they are, they're saying we can't fight any more. and initially there were, there were about to lose, only those injured were about to surrender. but now we know for a fact that those who are still healthy, they are laying down arms and going into russian captivity becoming prisoners of war to qual, despite. as igor took us through their ukranian trips laying down their arms, western media betrayed the events as an evacuation relaying the words of ukrainian

officials who said the soldiers have coat left. the plant with the support of numerous organizations, both ukrainian and international. they made no mention of the involvement of russian, nor than yet. sc republic trips, we spoke to an investigative journalist who said the normative shows the importance of this war for the wes. i think this is an indication of the importance of this war to the last. you know, this isn't the existential war on so many different levels. there are now some mainstream major outlets quickly in france. that is, and i think the new york time is addressing the war crimes committed against russian prisoners or for by the ukrainian forces, particularly the as of an either battalion, for example here instead of course, we see a very civilized operation. we see russian soldiers a tearing to international law to geneva convention treating these as of for good

soldiers, ukrainian forces with medical treatment, taking them to hospital, treating them with their respect and dignity that was not given to russian, peo. and the fact that was the major is ignoring the difference in the behavior of both sides is indicative of their hypocrisy and actually their criminal support of criminal. and they cannot admit that the russian forces that they have portrayed the brutal invaders or the one thing with decency and humanity. the ukrainian defense ministry has published a video of its army, claiming they've pushed back. russian forces at the border near har, calls the country 2nd largest city, but questions are being raised about the footage does. among other things, the soldiers are heard saying they came to the frontier on april 15th. but the

video for some reason wasn't published until a full month later, or corresponding maria florida told me more. most of western media have been very quick to spread this news that he, if sold them and they were either not very professional, not very accurate with information that were offered or, and other guess is that maybe the idea was to make people believe that it was true that the friend enforces reached the border with russia in hiding fees and pushing the russian troops back. no matter it doesn't matter, let me how close to reality toys. and it seems that he wasn't quite close to things on the ground. first of all, the days. indeed, the footage was released on may 15th, but the soldiers in the postage or whoever the od maybe the actors, they say a for let's take a listen with,

with how to explain why i call them actors because later in other media was published, showing the same group of people in military uniform carrying, you can see it right now on the screen carrying the frontier post the same blue and yellow ball to pose that these people are gathered around in the footage south. not astonishing is it? because you can understand for morale, reasons doing that, but actually taping it, that footage of them lifting it through what seems to be a forest dot surely again. yeah, i think i'm someone decided to take to filming. so now we can see that they were carrying these post to the film in does this ra choose and a site shows that it's not a real case and it's not a real frontier. and this whole thing was not true, but interesting is that this latest be do with these people carrying the post was

mostly ignored by west media behind spreading. they sneak, they didn't even bother to remove this fake news from their paint. some questions raised for publishing called using a photo claiming to show you creamy. i think it's the sumi region, but the people in the picture. they're carrying pacific stuff but can have huge ramifications as you were saying if it's believed. yeah, again, this is information word that we're leaving and apart from having a real bloody will on the ground and stakes very high. who cares about the truth, but seriously? like i without justifying, oh, at saft in it, think news about military success is something that i can understand. you know, at least the aim is clear but painful picture. while you report on russians been repelled by ukrainians in similar region. i mean to me, it's more like about disrespect to journalists as a whole, as lack of professionalism. and if you read the comments to this reuters tweet, you can understand the people. i mean, the ticket the same way i did? well, i never since when is a war being fought with pay ball guns,

or is this the new armaments that europe and the u. s. a is paying billions for really it reuters next time get your photos correct. do you guys need to vet your images better? those are paintball guns and masks. those aren't soldiers in combat. does anyone at reuters ever go to a shooting range or play paint ball? so yeah, it is a shame and you can see people a furious people are angry. but you know, the saddest thing is that this is a bloody conflict. and people from both sides are exhausted, not rotors, a's tire, you know, may be on, you know, for reporting on ukraine. but people, they are, i dying their suffering and they wanted to come to an end as soon as possible, and they want peace. and sometimes i think that we as channel is as media community, we can try to help promote peace negotiations. you know, there were several rounds of talks, but eventually, sadly, stop. so we can try to do something to, to bring sides together to push them back to table. but we see the opposite. you

know, most of the media they have fueling this conflict. and, you know, it doesn't help more diets seem to be emerging about the mainstream media, normative on the ukraine conflict. they popular italian author an independent journalist as address russians on his you tube channels, seeing that the italians are not against them. and that the real problem, he says, is rome blindly following brussels. we got his take on the western coverage of the offensive a conflict doing craner. so if he listened to the italian media, there is only one true narrative, one correct interpretation of the situation in ukraine. one way putin is evil and zalinski is the victim. there isn't even the slightest mention of the fact that the u. s. nato could also be responsible. another thing that is ignored is the history of relations between russia and ukraine. nobody is taking the effort to look at how things had been in the past in order to better understand the factors that may have

pushed russia to attempt to reclaim ukraine's territories. a sam we, we seen a lot of opinion polls in italy showing that over 50 comes to ukraine, and these were pulse conducted by the media. so the real number is probably even higher. and we don't even know where these weapons are actually going. the italian government is telling us that we're sending alms to ukraine them reality however, there's evidence and they were report saying that these weapons end up in the hands of neo nazi groups allowed that she took the decision to impose sanctions against russia. that wasn't even a decision made by italians. it's a european decision that our country has accept else, but that's not happening. and these sanctions have precisely the opposite effect to what was intended. they were supposed to have a punitive effect as it were, that undecided actions. but instead we immediately see them back fire on us brain that. oh well debates on punishing us was seen on the italian television this month

. when experts discussing counseling russian culture didn't pull any punches. it was so no book of the fact that a russian sing account come to italy is a form of fascism, a singer or an orchestra conductor can't come head just because they are russian or russian athlete can't run that. so the west and tennis plays spokesman sing is conduct his valet dances, dignity in lubbock, that should be defended all the way. kister conductor is slightly different in my opinion, because my solar often his director, if he was against the wall, i have to say they don't have to do. oh, well, to get a fuller picture all this situation currently facing russian arts in the west as well as russian artists to available on our website, r t dot com as they cost of goods and services sore is in the u. s. emory high inflation for many of them, including some of the richest people, u. s. president,

on his administration. here's ortiz kill of not been with more. no one seems to be buying the biden ministrations claim that the rising inflation is actually all the fault of russia. we have to rich man, no on mosque and jeff laming bye for the increasing problem of inflation in the they know inflation hurts the medius to most, but unions aren't causing inflation and neither are wealthy people. remember the administration, they failed, but if they had succeeded, inflation would be even today's, at a 40 year high. the honest reason for inflation is that the government printed a zillion amount of more money than it had. this is not super complicated. this administration just doesn't seem to get a lot done. it's important to point out that jeff days, those is the owner of the washing. you have a lot, mos speaking there as well, and just purchased twitter in san the 2 of them are blaming the by the ministration . now the city was point out. we're talking about 8.3 percent rise and inflation.

ice index is up 11 percent. ah, over last year that's was are simply costing more. now we had the fox news house tucker carlson ration for their handling of the economic situation in the united states. run our economy in u. s. government caused inflation united states and they did it the all 5 of money very quickly and that divide or currency is printing a ton of money for half of the residents. blame the biden ministration for the rising, called not happy with the economic situation. they were led to believe that things would get best saved the day and fix things from prompts mismanagement, but the economic situation elect a new congress are approaching. people will be heading to the polls and no need rump and inflation. the u. s. is set the past, the largest ukraine to key f, but the list of lawmakers opposed to further aid. the 1st pro ukraine bill. while on choose the $57.00 to key if that's this fight. senate minority leader is let's trust. welcome to the program. you're not in the g o p, but are you one of those?

so i am not aware that there are any isolationist in the neutral goodwill with our country if you want to call me. and i shall lation as i would be, in course, and inflation. and on to russia, jeffrey, do you think the american people are buying it? false, in my opinion, causes of inflation are very long standing policies of the united states and congress 75 years of grossly excessive spending weapons and illegal unnecessary wars. number 2, incomplete incompetence of the so called federal reserve 20 years or more also known as the fed, free, reckless, foolish counter pro strapped to economic sanctions. that the u. s. has

ran venezuela and many other countries account for the vast majority of all of all items in the united states being sent abroad to ukraine, even as the u. s. faces shortages of numerous, it's a disaster it's, it's completely wrong and damaging in a number st. it will not help the cranium, people at all works. there is a small amount being made and i would support that, that, that, that is, that the bulk which is military aid and ukraine has already lost the war. there is no way and help def. and it will only eat or

fall into the hands on the black market. this. it's horrible. it was a horrible bill. and if i had been in the us house of representatives, i would know you're, you're a candidate for congress, jeffrey i. eagle. i do speak to many voting is inflation a big maybe their biggest worry and do you think it will be? sions? i think it is their biggest concerns. i think it may be the may be the most important concerns here in kentucky and across the united states. that it will be a major factor in the mentor jeffrey m. it's congressional district. many sites. thank you. who are top story,

the other by the media brew over the last 24 hours when over $250.00 or at last, the area to go to journalists on commented or for india is national, mainstream media that's depict ukrainian army. and as i mentioned there, they knew how the events are being described. thank you. have glass in the morning for all of them are reporting about the mighty and fighting and not a lot of my house cumberland. and just because i knew that the last moment been announced that my dear pool has been taken over by the russians and the system is not all. 2 middle 100 fighters go to report, abuse fighters themselves for telling the media that know we will never be. we'll

fight to know that now and we will continue to try to even be cleaning and about getting them to. but what actually happened now is funded. so then could be, i don't know, that would be the conditions of this, but practically what we know is that $200.00 plus fighters who are all up to the russians and then they were taken to don about people to the public. so this, i think mental media was not was reluctant to report as a for that. so that's $11.00. it's perhaps understandable, isn't it? the key as is using events, that the pun, to ship public opinion. but why is the western media just seemingly accepting this? norris of some skepticism, as you well know, it's a pretty basic requirement for a journalist. all you have to do is to report this,

like i'm in my city now. you know the last 2 weeks ago. and they said that they've got any and the delivery made this you know, that the troops the fighters for all up in the band being taken out even on the stresses, someone giving medical assistance at that point. everybody to see. so all you have to do is to report that you have to say about, i mean this is, but there was a fees and the thing was going on and the to the 5 does the thing initially thing that they were never thought under. but they went to live, in other words, how, what you call it, you know, so it is plain to boot, but i don't know. unfortunately some media submissions the not call it does it does. that's what the. yeah. quite on. regarding your work as

the hindus international affairs editor, how does your audience see the reasons behind the conflict? i cannot, i can only speak for my international relations. so i have been following this conflict. i mean the, i have been about that. so i think it's a fact if you ask me for the fact that the russians went into your game, but i didn't do it in all the special military operation and started this. this is the latest phase of the conflict. but if you take a look at the broader picture, this has been going on for quite some time. i closed the case of this conflict. i've been going on since 2040 so i don't. so if you look at the, you know, a little broader picture and then the network function happened. so i had a lot about that expansion of the limit. no need to

is what brought us to where we are now. and this is a dangerous moment. the world to fit nothing, because on the one side you have also because manipulate up up all of it up and then on the other side you have meeting with this also which also has so, i mean if you look at that from, if you look at the global look at the global bond of you, i'm sitting in india and i look at the conflict. this is a pretty dangerous conflict. so i think this is, i mean, i always like to look at the big picture. when i look at the big picture, i see that was on the one side, the nato expansion. actually people rush out to get it the concerns and eventually for the russians to take some actions and on the other side. but it does actually the objective of possibilities for the last thing. so i think you should see this

big crisis and try to look for a political solution to this. well, thank you very much for coming in the progress sharing all those thoughts well as we do appreciate it, stanley, johnny senior journalist uncommented, route india is national newspaper. the hindu. thank you very much. and that is, are up for this and use our more programs get their start right ahead. those stay close to see what's showing where you are today. this is our to international. ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be in arms. race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to disease. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very particular time time to sit down and talk

with the 1st time in history, an entire country's culture has been trashed with a very modern weapon cancelled culture. really desert one, the global sheffield my love so little in wembley frog. it just me said in a minute that would preclude the phrase now particularly refers to counseling russian culture yet of no was equally up of to school because it has yet to when you my foot stool which will be on there. it's charlie mozilla that though some of the listen branch of london e de moines, reward, russia has created over the past 1200 years, has now questioned, partially condemned, reviled, and rejected. his mind. and you started to put something at the mill of bramble.
