ah, ah ah, i think will this fuss around extra supply see crate. there's only one goal that is to drag out the military conflict as long as possible in his 1st interview. since the start of that conflict, vladimir putin takes a him up, a huge amount of western arms being shipped to ukraine, but claims russian defenses are quote, cracking them like nuts also ahead. ah, 5 civilians are killed this weekend and then yes, people's republic comes under ukrainian shelling out according to local officials. we report from the scene all around me. you can see this is

a residential area very heavily populated. this is one of those around multiple rocket launchers and in the stories about shape the week ukraine fires, it's human rights commission are in part for spreading on, verified information about a legit work for 5 russia. a canadian journalists covering the print conflict is up to a notorious ukrainian vigilante website and labeled an enemy of ukraine. even bartlett tells r t why she won't be swayed by the threat. the intention this mares is also to just kind of my name and to frighten me into not speaking or writing and that's simply won't work. i won't live in here with the recap of the big stories over the past 7 days and right up to the moment development says, well, this is the weekly on rti hello and welcome western arms supplies to ukraine are

aimed at dragging out the conflict that is what vladimir putin has said in his 1st full interview since the start of russia's military offensive. he also claimed the russian military was successfully neutralizing much of the advanced equipment sent to no. if you're with mr. unmanned aerial systems that actually perform stress can only be effective if there are no military defense systems. presidency. we do have them the booth all the pansy. they're extremely effective. not that i want to offend anyone, but the systems are cracking these vehicles like nuts. dozens of them have already been destroyed. dozens yet. you might think all this fuss around x rom supply c crane has only one goal. that is to drag out the military conflict as long as possible with the virtual work. while the russian defense ministry has confirmed its forces have destroyed a number of tanks and other military equipment on the outskirts of ki, if those are immense, were supplied to ukraine by eastern european countries. other strikes targeted

facilities in that done yet republic, where ukrainian military equipment was said to be undergoing repair works. and i want to show you some unverified footage from the ukrainian capital purported to show explosions there on sunday, according to the ukrainian president's office real where facilities worked hard and had no casualties where reported or intensive artillery fire continued as well this sunday. and that done yet, people's republic with local authorities, claiming shells are being fired by ukrainian forces. 5 civilians are reported to have been killed since saturday. 26 more people injured. ah. yes, this footage is said to show the shelling of the capital city there than yes. yesterday evening authorities say ukrainian forces fired dozens of missiles from rud

launchers, which can shoot several projectiles at the same time. he of health and yet commented on oh, video here, 20, residential buildings in done yet severely damaged with many nearby vehicles completely destroyed. michaels claim be apartments and surrounding area were targeted multiple times a year with visual plumbing will do most of the machine to put it to you as of tomorrow. go little. he's a mobile ship to really do phone recorder queue. dan yet came under fire,

thrive the day on saturday and overnight with 4 schools and the kindergarten suffering extensive damage. ortiz, fremont, castro is there on files. this report for the city of the nest was shelled throughout the day on saturday. and this is just one of many places that were damaged. this is the civilian area right in the center of the city wall, according to local authorities, at least 50 rounds of martin multiple rocket launchers had been used against civilians. here, as you can see, behind me, cars had been damaged. they were on fire on saturday nights. right behind the cars is a kindergarten is just one of the want to kindergarten was damaged and for schools as well all around me, you can see this is a residential area very heavily populated. this is one of those around for

multiple rocket launchers that landed right in the center of this area where on the civilians live mind you. none of the military infrastructure was damaged during the shedding on saturday night. the shelling took place around at 9 pm where most of the people were already at home. and luckily, no one was killed here, only 2 people have been wounded. but during the day, on the 4th of june, at least 5 civilians were killed both here in the nest and in nevada and wall of as well. and at least 20 people were wounded. and the total amount of people that were killed civilians that were killed by ukrainian shilling since the beginning of the special military operation amounts to more than $140.00 people after 9 pm on saturday nights the ground here was shaking internet can this area in particular,

it hasn't seen a lot of damage since the conflict began back in 2014. and of course residents here are absolutely outrageous. mind you the front line of the fighting at the moment it is right on the outskirts of the nest. can the civilians are afraid that this is not the last time that they will be targeted by the ukrainian military? no. on friday cruise from r t on the reuters news agency came under ukrainian artillery fire on the outskirts of the city of several denounced a driver was killed and some reuters journalist injured. our correspondent, eager savannah was in one of the cars. targeted, told us of his experience ah ah,

we're just about to move into the town of several the next as we were about to move into and drive into the town, we were caught amid ave shelling. there were 2 vehicles, both civilian the 1st one. there was, there were our colleagues with the reuters news agency behind the wheel. a soldier with the acme, with the chechen ackman battalion we were moving, we were the 2nd vehicle following them. so again, both cars civilian and so 1st we heard a couple of shells. a couple of shells landed a good few doesn't meet his around us, so there was no cause for alerts. after all, this is a war zone. so these things they happen. the 3rd one caught the very 1st vehicle, the one moving in front of us. we did see it, apparently it was a direct head, we saw a bright flash, the vehicle tipped over to the side and it was and it caught on fire was get caught a blaze. so are the driver, the soldier he died instantly right there. and well, a to the 2 of the reuters crew all of them, they were injured. luckily,

nothing serious. one of them has a broken arm and another was wounded in the legs. and i just want to stress and point out that are well, obviously the ukrainians, they've saw us. they saw that there were 2 civilian vehicles going towards a towards the town of i sever a de nets and they were trying actively trying to hit our cars. it wasn't like they were shelling the general area. we were with that target. and so well, they succeeded a full ma gsa to the ukrainian artillery artillery sports as and those who pulled the plug, pulled the trigger. they did managed to catch to jealous of a european news agency, roy t as in the cross has and they successfully had their vehicle acreage developed law . ukraine has fired it's human rights commissioner, in part for spreading unverified information about atrocity she alleged, were committed by russian troops. her claims had been widely covered by western

media with top political figures also picking up on those statements or senior correspondent, iraq as the of takes a closer look at the story, which just to warn you include some disturbing accusations. day a nice week saud end month after month. the world over was barraged with stories horrific stories of rape and unspeakable acts committed, allegedly by russian forces in ukraine in such acts of violence, raping children little girls, 11 years old, repeated lay in front of their mothers or repeat backing their mothers and faces the children. will each day more and more credible reports of re killing st torture are merging. if you soon shooting hundreds of cases of rape have been recorded, including under age girls, very young children and even a baby. it's just scary to talk about it. but it's true. it happened, women and girls right now are facing the worst kind of fear and violence. and we

know already i'm from the analyses that have been done. they've been the victims of not just murder and rape, but kidnapping. many of these stories grew to be unbelievable. and that sort of figure of speech, people including ukrainian officials and the government stopped taking them seriously. they became an embarrassment. so ludicrous was some of the oh go. the woman behind these stories, new nila denise of a, who was ironically, ukraine's human rights commissioner was fired a year before her term was officially up the unclear focus of the ombudsman media work on the numerous details of sexual crimes committed in an unnatural way and rape of children in the occupied territories that could not be confirmed by evidence, only harmed ukraine. her stories became so ridiculous that even members of the

ukrainian media, which, which itself is in war propaganda mode intervened. 18. i'm journalists together with 51 lawyers of human rights activists, and others penned an open let cooling on her to dial it down. that the graphic stories published by ha about months old douglas being raped with a variety of objects to royal up the people that this was a productive or, you know, decent sexual crimes during the war or a tragedy of families. a difficult and traumatic topic. not a topic for publications. in the spirit of the scandalous chronicle. we are forced to trust the official information that comes from officials, a state of martial law a priori. we do not have the opportunity to verify it from other sources. in this way, we are spreading messages from the commissioner for human rights, in fact, taking them on faith. essentially, they asked that the stick to things that actually happened though all of these

stories can be tracked back to denisa and had seem more specifically the social media posts made by them. and that's where all the trailed stop, almost all of her rape claims. se ukrainian journalists are without evidence or witnesses, despite her own less than honest approach. denise, her has been a vocal proponent for an international criminal tribunal to apparently bring russian troops to justice for things that she had lie. the bath, i think we should look at yugoslavia andro lined at these are the examples that we all know about. there is the un international court of justice and the international criminal court. we need to push for the creation of a special tribunal. naturally, the niece of a has been blind to verify reports and footage of ukrainian troops murdering, torturing, and mutilating russian prisoners of war. and even ukrainian civilians deemed to be pro russia and

o get the human rights apparently. but these telling isn't it. when you own politicians who are bent themselves on making the russians, he was terrible as possible that they fly for being simply too outrageous. keslie, else to tell you by today the ukranian presidential adviser has suggested us rocket systems sent to the country code in the future, have a range of up to 300 kilometers. now this, despite the pentagon, seeing it will only deliver rockets limit to 80 kilometers. good question, let us do you remember how this war started, but they were afraid to give us extra thing as extra javelins. and they said it was a precedent. they could never set, and now there are lots of them. these thing is that could be no talking artillery, and yet western artillery has now been received. so whether radius is 80 kilometers, you see it will be 300 kilometers. crimea is ours, it's ukrainian, therefore we will show crimea swiftly if there is such

a need. this is considered strategic russian territory. and the fact that we hit crimea during the war. that was a little secret. just in the background to the washington earlier agreed to send a new $700000000.00 military aid package to ukraine, including a number of advance rocket launchers. ukraine though, could use the systems with different 300 kilometer range rockets, which would pump the russian border city of brianna within range, as you can see them up here. what a ne smell lens would also be at risk. moscow has repeatedly warned of consequences if such weapons are used to target its territory. according to the pentagon, kia has promised that won't use the weapons to strike russia, although the u. s. invoice to the countries seem to suggest kia will ultimately decide whether to use as president biden announce yesterday, $700000000.00 security assistance package had been signed. this include time are long by truck systems. this will help create and forces to a more accurately,

but also have a longer range. the exact range will be determined by the ukranian forces. the writer and activists sort of flanders fears the new long range u. s. rocket launchers heading to ukraine, will create a dangerous situation for the whole region. from the very beginning, every stage of this war. it's a proxy war. ukraine has no independence, whatsoever. proxy means public. and it's a u. s. it's pulling the strings in every pronouncement. but this will not change the military balance, no matter how many weapons are sent, at least so far, by every measure. the russian military response has been consolidating the gains and don, last, perio po, see of arise and so on. it's a very dangerous things and it does show how,

how much the u. s. is willing to escalate the war to more and more dangerous dimensions. but i don't think it will change the military balance of forces within the ukraine. ukraine is not doing very well in this war, despite all the grand pronouncements but the danger of these weapon staying in region is enormous. it's enormous for all the possibilities of future peace and it should be clearly denounced and these weapons should be destroyed. hopefully they will be and there is a growing concerned on both sides of the party lines in washington about the lethal aid heading to key of the pentagon. recently admitted it has little control over how ukraine uses and distributes those risk of diversion is one of many considerations that we routinely assess when evaluating any potential arms transfer . ukrainian leadership have assured us that they understand the importance of

accountability. we're not on the ground with them and they're not telling us, you know, every round of ammunition that they're firing in, at who and at when we have increasingly concerns voices at this point about the amount of weaponry and the amount of money that's being sent to ukraine elizabeth warren is the latest to speak up, but us, senator, the u. s. government is sending billions and humanitarian, economic and military assistance to help the ukrainian people overcome, put in brutal war and the american people expect strong oversight by congress and full accounting from the department of defense. elizabeth warren has started speaking up and she's joined us. senator rand paul republican and we have a bipartisan call at this point for a, an inspector general to look into the dispensing of funds and weapon from the united states to ukraine. make sure they're falling into the right and courting the global organized crime index, published in 2021 ukraine as one of the largest illegal weapons markets of any

country in the world. and at least any country in europe and illegally traffic weapons are all across ukraine. this is what's been reported. there are 2 primary sources of elicit small arms and ammunition in ukraine. the diversion of domestic holdings and cross border trafficking weapons from eastern ukraine are becoming an important supply source for the black market. and there been examples of this already. one of the prime weapons used by the states and exported by the states around the world, the javelin has apparently been up for sale, illegally costing around $30000.00. and at this point, people are looking over the record. what happened in syria? what happened in iraq, what happened in afghanistan, and how so many of us weapon have ended up in the hands of terrorists extremists at narco gangs and criminal elements. there are some pretty legitimate concerns here as more and more us money and more and more us heavy weaponry is set to be

delivered to grey. a canadian journal is covering the conflict and ukraine has found herself founded to a key of based name and shame website. it's uploads, information on people, considered to be enemies of the state. the site says published a slew of accusations against the bartlet participation in the informational special operation of russia, an aggressive country and terrorists against ukraine. informational support of the open military attack of fascists, russia on ukraine, encroachments on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine. accomplice in the crimes of the russian authorities against ukraine and its citizens. pretty direct stuff is not an r t earlier spoke with eva who say she doesn't believe the canadian government will offer her any assistance. the independent journalist of maverick media did reach out to me a week ago and they were quite concerned. they take this issue very seriously. the

fact that a canadian citizen is on effectively a kill list. and so they, they did interview me and they said in the context of the interview that they would be reaching out to canadian media. and i believe starting a petition. and they did inquire if i was going to reach out to the canadian embassy in kev to which i said, you know, essentially there's no point. i hardly know where i stand with the canadian government. i don't believe that candidate would ever support me best by the apartment, dangers, even our faces. canadian mainstream media outlets have been silent on her addition to what some consider a kill list. this is what she told me about the experience of being exposed to such threats. i don't believe for a moment that the canadian government would protect me from any of these. these alternation less extra types that would seek to harm me because they see me as a threat to their country. a cbc journalist has been trying to reach out to me,

saying that he would like to interview me on, on my work in the dumbass and on my participation in an international tribunal on ukrainian war crimes in moscow. in early april i think it was. now what i'd like to say about that is, i don't believe for a moment cbc would ever give me a fair hearing on their platform. they are canadian state funded media. they do the bidding of the canadian government and the corporate interests. he did not once point in his email mention, you know, he's appalled by the fact that i'm listed on this kill list. he didn't say anything about it, but clearly he seen it. that's the only way in my mind that he could have been aware of my participation in this tribunal. so cbc is white washing the cranes kill list. and instead seeking to inflame the fact that i participated in a panel that right lee calls out you cranes for crimes against the people of it on bass. will your work and reporting be affected by your addition to that site? i know i look, i can't live in fear,

i won't live in here. i will take precautions. of course, when i'm reporting, but this is the thing they, they want to prevent people from. they want to scare people from continuing to report and that's not going to work with me just like the smears that have been launched against me since late 2016. the intent with the merits is also to just just credit my name and to frighten me into not speaking or writing and that that's simply won't work. i won't live in here. ok for barclays. there now, as the prospect of you, membership is dangled on a stick in front of ukraine by the blocks leading members. it appears it may be harder for key of to obtain gun 1st thought. increasing voices are pointing to a number of factors. ukraine lacks, that's necessary for membership, adding up solving such issues could take decades. ortiz, charlotte dubin ski picks up the story you queen is desperate to be part of you. but as the momentum fades, its demands are getting louder. dribble,

ukraine's quick movement to the european union is needed through its candidate status, which must be granted right now in conditions of war as part of a special short procedure for e u membership. we do not need alternatives to e u membership. we do not need these compromises. while the president of the european commission continues to be encouraging, it is our moral duty to make it possible that they join our european union and that we pave the path towards our union. hers is becoming a lonely voice. fewer than a 3rd of you members support ukraine's bid to be granted candidate status unconditionally. in the immediate future, the majority a hesitant across the block politicians have even started to squirm. when asked about he abs rapid candidacy status, having to admit that the chances are slim cause protest kiners of the assertion process is not a matter of a few months or few years. the fact that there are no short cuts on the way into the e. u. is also

a duty of fairness to the 6 western balkan countries on mc alford, you will come in at we cannot flam the door in ukraine's face. now, it's not enough to say you belong to europe. we need to say you belong to the you. it won't be a fast accession process. there can't be any shortcuts medicine. but even if we were to grant that candidate status to morrow, the process which would allow them to join would in reality, take several years a most likely several decades. if would it would we have to be honest. if you say you crane is going to join the you in 6 months or a year or 2, you're lying. i don't know. it's probably in 15 or 20 years. it takes a long time. so why has the tied apparently turned, could it have anything to do with the mountain of criticism towards european leaders coming like quick fire from president sil lensky? there are plenty of other reasons why ukraine isn't in ship shape and bristol fashion when it comes to being an e. u. candidate in 2021. ukraine ranked a 100 and 22nd out of

a 180 countries on the corruption index that was significantly lower than the most corrupt e country. according to one recent democracy index, ukraine didn't do particularly well there either. it's called less than 40 percent in democracy with independent media, also seeing a decline in recent years. ukraine, which markets 30th anniversary of independence in 2021 cannot be described as a stable, consolidated democracy. and as the war continues, the idea of a potential candidate being caught up in 1 may not be particularly appealing to the block. while there are also questions over whether ukraine is really pro european or just pro european funds or by then has just put 4 of the, his 40000000000 package for ukraine, which is utterly insane when you consider that economic mass for the united states is in. and i would say the same thing for the you and the u. k. there is no way

that the u. s. or the u. k. or any country, any natal member states can give assurances that these are huge. financial packages are going to be followed through and that are full accountability is going to be provided to the publics of those countries that are effectively providing this money. another argument is that by fast tracking ukraine to candidate status, it would leap frog over western balkan nations who have been in the queue for years . some say that would be unfair. whichever way you look at it, ukraine doesn't cut the membership, must it. and without being the case, if the does say no, it could be about to land itself. once again, is the length skis hall of shame? yeah, and another aspect of all this one with situation in ukraine has created its own refugee crisis. the conflict has completely shifted attention from already existing

problems elsewhere in the world. that's according to you monetary, an organization, norwegian refugee, cancel. the war in ukraine has highlighted the immense gap between what is possible when the international community rallies behind the crisis and the daily reality for the millions of people suffering far from the spotlight. while in particular, the council has highlighted the crisis, continuing to play it in the democratic republic of congo, food insecurity there reached its highest recorded level at the end of last year with 27000000000 people. that is a 3rd of the country's population going hungry. the d r c has 5 and a half 1000000 internally displaced people. while a further 1000000 have said abroad the problems enough for gallant, the only ones being overlooked either and hundreds of african refugees are facing eviction from a hotel in the bay area. after the u. s. stop making compensation payments as it focuses on ukraine. to date,

a r p donors have spent over $2000000.00 supporting you to be clear. we are in this situation because what we've been told about u. s. government support and timelines has not been fulfilled. the delays paired with the attention the war in ukraine is receiving has caused us major fundraising issues. dozens of african refugees gathered in the albion capital on the streets there to protest their plight may been temporarily accommodated in hotels. the head of a planned evacuation to north america. the hundreds are still stuck in obelia, unable to pay the higher hotel bills during the tourist. a number of them worked for washington during the else can. we talk to some of the refugees what is the difference between the people of afghanistan and ukraine? our people are burning in a war. no one has their voices wired for european countries in the us open the borders to ukrainians. but look at our situation. the u. s. must not leave

a synonym certain manner. we must not be forgotten because if he cranes, what's our difference from ukrainians? what is this double game on the someone with our don young man, the whole world in particular, the u. s. was responsible for evacuating afghans. now they're focusing on ukraine. they now must be attention to us again. well, i guess it's not with americans for 18 years. we want americans to create us as soon as possible. our children are being deprived of education. we're living in an uncertain situation for 89 months. we do not have a dark side of the american experiment and focus next, neo nazi hate crypt. we examined how some members managed to change their lives around and are not a force for good in their communities despite pressure from their peers out. documentaries, right ahead. the.
