ah ah, [000:00:00;00] with a shilling, i have quite a down for a little while and i use this opportunity to inspect this monastery on our team crew delivering humanitarian aid to local, take shelter from shelling in a monastery basement near the city of them. yeah. the next call centers, the 3 foreign fights is captured during the siege of murder. you pull to death, then plead guilty. i'm trying to appeal the sentence. the pentagon relief is a documentary showing how the u. s. has been funding 46 by a lot. ukraine allegedly, to help the country security and china just need to to compensate the victims of

the 1999 yugoslavia bombing saying the line should reflect on these crimes and stop leaking, global havoc with a weekly here on our international. i'm peter scotts and these the top of these stories the shape the week. we start this hour with the latest from the war in ukraine, the done, your city since has been showered by ukrainian forces us according to local authorities. these didn't left at least 2 civilians wounded according to reports. 15 rockets were fired as heavily populated area in the done yes. for public capital for residential buildings were damaged with fires breaking out after the shelling at a local hospital also taking damage. meanwhile, in nearby and gave her which is on the ukrainian control, what appears to be a mushroom cloud was reportedly seen in a chemical plans. now local media say it appeared after a series of explosions in the area,

and the rising smoke was seen by locals in and yes, which is some 20 kilometers away. and while people in danielle county, south skirts live under constant shilling, our correspondence, roman cos, rif annually motto valley ever visited the saint nicholas monastery, a near by villages to deliver humanitarian 8. and they were caught on the showing them the shelling kind of quieted down for a little while and i used this opportunity to inspect this monastery. now this is just one of the temples at the smallest free, which was destroyed by ukrainian shelling. obviously there were no military positions here, but sir, this monastery was still targeted by the ukrainian military. there were hundreds of people here that day on the sample was destroyed. they were in here exactly, but they were hiding in the basement because shelling simply would not stop. well,

this temple is now destroyed. people still live in the basement, have this monastery waiting for airs, shrikes, and ukrainian artillery. to stop. this is the local monastery that suffered quite a bit during this conflict through it's all to run downstairs into the basement and wait until shelling by the cranium. military stops. we are in the basement of this monastery. at the moment. this is where the local residents are hiding from the constance shelling. there are both women and her children. here, as you can see, the priest behind me, he's making sure everyone is so well and see over here home and his are studying scripture. you can look behind me,

there are 3 boys here. another man is also writing prayers and all this is happening as the shelling continues nonstop and according to the locals. this has been happening here. non stop for the last 3 months as ukrainian army are relentless in terrorizing the locals. so it's finally quiet here and we were able to unload the humanitarian aid that we brought . you're supposed to visit the senior citizens home, which is only about a 100 meters away from here, but so there's a drone above us. and so this ukrainian drone is so prevention us from delivering this humanitarian aid to the older people who are there? well, we talked to the monk here in the monastery, he said we can leave the humanitarian aid here for now. and they will let it later deliver it to the elders until the manager because multiple times

with 10 minutes or so, we decided to take advantage of this, these wire, if you will get out of there as quickly as possible. we are back in on this road with dr. loss with offers marcy, people's republic. 3 foreign fights is captured in murder. you pull to british citizens, an american national have been sentenced to death by it. and yet republic court. they were convicted among the charges of plotting of violence, overthrow of the government in the done yes. republic. the true i pleaded guilty to some of the charges and the lawyer says they will appeal the sentence which could be commuted to life imprisonment. the men have been depicted as heroes by some in

the western media for fighting for ukraine, but they at least appear to have reevaluated the war on their participation in its don't mean newton. so was that not, not the war that was fighting for like for myself i look, look at myself. i had to move not one has to be mentioned or talked about by case or tried to how my situation they understand. i have a time limit on my case, and i feel abandoned by the crating government, and the british government is totally different and a full scale war. and my experience, and this is our 1st time i've had artillery 1st home. i've had grad and, and 1st i've been in a full scale war and is disorganized, it's unpleasant. it's green journalist, a former c, a analyst john kerry. our crew says the volunteer to go to fight in other countries

was have a price to pay when captured. if this is not your conflict, you have no business volunteering to be in it. you know, we had people here in the united states, or we brought them to the united states who were captured on the battlefield in afghanistan and pakistan. and we treated them as, as mercenaries, which is what they were. they were non state combatants hostile combatants and they faced the full power of the law. and so if, if you're an american, or in the case that you cited a british or, or a moroccan and you volunteer to fight somebody else's war, then you're going to have to pay the price. when you're captured, it's going to be very clear to people who are entertaining, the idea of going to pray that there's nothing in it for them. they're, they're not going to get rich doing this. they're not going to come back with

glory from the battle field. this is a no win situation. they should mind their own business and stay away in the united states. we call people like this glory hounds, people who, who feel like they've wasted their lives and want to be able to tell their children and grandchildren stories some day. it's almost always a bad idea, both pena and as lynn. i hope they can avoid the death sentence. i probably would have tried to not join the military and tried to get in to like a civilian way. i'm hoping the people on the judges like to give my actions. i hope i really hope that i don't receive the death penalty so that they can go on to maybe help rebuild because there's going to be a lot of help needed. so many more will be our why it's done or for. yeah. and if we have assigned, if no 33 times in england generates one our civil merrier or 2. if i get through

this and i'm still alive, i'm going to the 3rd time, you know, it's to me and it's done. one of the men i didn't actually had previously been arrested on terrorism charges in the u. k. after the 14 syria, back in 2016, he was declared of all those charges for thousands of foreign secretary has criticized the done. yes, course sentence calling it's illegal. what donnie st post spokesperson said it was a polled at the sentence, and geopolitical analyst unplug. john mcdoogan says the death sentence is a warning to anyone else overseas thinking of joining the conflict. it was a legal decision carried out by the court. and i, even though they don't recognize the the l d r in the loop on the people's republic in the people's republic. those are still the governments in charge. you know, there is so, you know, whatever they say's is what's going to happen. and there's not a lot that they can do about it. they're telling people don't come here. mind your own business,

because you don't love these people. they're sorry now because they got caught in this is, this is the way it always is, but they're not sorry. when they're engaging in crimes against the people who donica republic with, with the grand military it's, it's a 2 way street, you know, even me is a journalist. i'm on ukraine's hill list with a bunch of other journalists. and if we get caught there, they'll execute us just for reporting what's actually happening over there. so, you know, the, these governments like the u. k, u. s. and all these other governments that are growing fowler and they have no place, they have no reason to condemn mercenaries when when their side of ukraine is, is, you know, willing to execute journalists off the pace of uncovered some evidence that the o s. c, e may have, in some way been involved with ukraine's ultra nationalist rights set to movements

. we are serious see to a comments, but they are yet to reply his eager donna with more. this is where the militants of the right sect of battalion were stationed. one of the most notorious new nazi groups in ukraine. this was their command center. you can see combs, cables, all. hm. of course, well destroyed. but what is particularly interesting about this place is that the right sector militants, again, one of the most notorious, neo nazi formations in ukraine, very much akin to as off or i da, for example, they shared this building with the members of the o is see mission we found their insignia on the floor just above us. so again, members of the international community, the what we see they owe to the roof over their heads to neo nazis. they shared food with neo nazis, a very peculiar symbiosis. so here's what i was talking about. ukrainian insignia right next to the insignia of the

o. s. c. this is these are cyrillic letters. they are written in russian. so everything points to the fact that the members of always see indeed shared this living space with the ukranian forces, which were in part, well with the right sect near nancy battalion. there were 13 on this street here. they the right sector, lead the defense, was the right sector, mixed up with nato. yes, nato in the o. s. c, e were present here because we found their leaflets everywhere, their maps narcotics, and everything else. ah, this is an internal records all over. she dated 2016, detailing some very well very in humane approach of the ukrainian military towards

civilians. since 2014 ukraine armed forces had been occupying civilian houses in the area of shorter street booby traps and mine. we're also placed in this area which have led to numerous civilian casualties. in may, several inhabitants of the village complained to the special monitoring mission about the behavior of ukraine armed forces personnel station in the vicinity of shore street and reported that they had evicted one family from their home in order to occupy it. the soldiers were using aggressive wat stokes captain leashed to prevent paper from accessing the area. it was reported that 2 people had been bitten by the dogs and his another report from january 2017 that we discovered on the right sector base. a very interesting find because he has a paragraph relationship with military and military occupation of civilian houses. here it details that the ukrainian armed forces indeed were occupying civilian houses and placing and placing military vehicles between these houses. for example, here at reeds. in august,

the special monitoring mission spoke with an interlocutor, which is basically a local who showed his partially destroyed house. shortly after the ukrainian military placed a tank in their back yard. so not only were they will using civilian houses in the victims civilians. they also, they also rigged them his picture taken by o. s. e showing a booby trap. the pentagons released a fact sheets, explaining that the funding of 46 bow labs in ukraine by the u. s. was in place so improve ukraine's biological safety and disease surveillance of, of human and animal health. the united states has also worked collaboratively to improve ukraine's biological safety, security and disease surveillance for human and animal health, providing support to $46.00 peaceful ukrainian laboratories. this work often conducted in partnership with outside organizations,

such as the w h o in the world organization for animal health has resulted in safer and more effective disease surveillance and detection. early moscow asked the u. s . for an explanation about his bi loves in ukraine after discovering 30 facilities . moscow believes the united states has spent more than $200000000.00 to develop biological weapons ukrainian facilities. washington has denied any involvement calling the allegations, classic russian propaganda. the russian accusations are absurd. there laughable and dead. you know, in the words of my irish catholic grandfather, a bunch of mark, there's nothing to it. it's classic russia, russian propaganda, the united states government does not own or operate biological laboratories in ukraine. full stop. ukraine does not have a biological weapon program. there are no ukrainian biological weapons

laboratories, daniela's our journalists, and also believes that russia's concerns over the bi labs and ukraine. a legitimate us has an obligation to, to clarify the purpose and role of those bio bio labs to open up its files to submit the public inspection to essentially to, to answer any relevant questions, etc. and i think that russia as a neighboring own, neighboring countries, including russia, have an interest in what those labs were, were doing what they were about, and what they pose any kind of broader, broader public danger. but certainly the world awaits more evidence concerns that russia raises are certainly legitimate. it let them, if russia was found to have been operating a string of $46.00 bio 's in northern mexico,

i guarantee the us would be demanding, demanding all kinds of, of public disco disclosures or also be threatening military action if the shoe were on the other for the us would be taking very strong action. so therefore, i think that russia has at least as much justification to raise these concerns. moving on. so the news now new records are being broken in the us. inflation hits its highest level in more than 4 decades without a special price is increasing to $5.00 per gallon. so it's $2.00 more than dr. as a paint just one year ago. a lot of the things i can do because i have to pay for, get those in less, less like, well, you gotta think about gas. now you gotta decide, you really want to go out there or not. they need extra money. like you want to go to the club or go to the bars. i've got to spend money just to have fun, but then on that get well yeah,

think about that. i usually could pay probably like to see dollars and i was like a $100.00. we don't want to go too far and we don't wanna use a car too much because it's pointless to right now. well, better prices have been rising steadily for the past month, and washington is recent harsh sanctions on versus energy states. i've only exacerbated the situation. the price of petrol in california is now bone, the $6.00 a gallon. and that's just one of $23.00 us states where prices have climbed to more than $5.00. some forecast rates even further rises. the u. s. government has some unpopular proposals for dealing with the crisis, as ortiz dollar call to reports. us gas prices just keep on skyrocketing, breaking new records nearly every week. the strain on americans wallets that the gas pump has gotten so bad, that one republican congressman says, people would save money by getting high to get around at this point. in my state,

the price of gas is so high that it would be cheaper to buy cocaine and just everywhere, he probably wasn't serious, but the point still stands. prices have gotten so high that a michigan police department has asked its officers to keep eating donuts at the office and just follow up on calls over the phone to avoid using gas with 3 and a half months left and its fiscal year. the department has already used up 96 percent of its gas budget. according to the american automobile association, people's' cars are breaking down in the middle of the road a lot more frequently as people try to test the limits of their gas tanks all the while. the white house continues to blame vladimir putin for the suffering of americans. today's place report, confirm what americans already know. prudent price, i consider america hard. gas prices at the pump. energy in food prices, confir half of the monthly price increases since may. of course,

those well off enough to afford electric cars are so disconnected from reality that they're wondering why all these ordinary people don't just stop buying gas if it's so expensive. i do have to say just on the issue of gas prices after waiting for a long time, read to have enough chips in this country to finally get my electric vehicle. i got it and drove it from michigan to here this last weekend and went by every single gas station didn't matter how high it was. and so i'm looking forward to the opportunity for us to move to vehicles that aren't going to be dependent on the whims of the oil companies. and the international markets. surprise, surprise. many did not appreciate that sentiment miss stab now as a typically clueless, arrogant, smug, shelter, democrat, politician, vote every democrat out. nothing shows how out of touch democrats are like saying people should just buy an expensive electric car. they can't afford in the middle

of record high inflation. what self righteous frills, like these don't care, is that 90 percent of the american population will never be able to afford an electric car. that's nonsense. i mean, look at the price, the cars are going up very fast, and electric vehicles are going up even faster than the average price. the cars, the price of the, of financing, the interest rates are going up and up people's real disposable income is going down because of inflation. i mean, are you going to finance? are you going to buy a new car? now people are going to take more public transport if they can, or they're going to really ration out the time that they drive a car and come november. and they're going to remember all that and they're going to blame. but it's no wonder a recent a b, c. news. paul shows americans are overwhelmingly dissatisfied with how joe biden is handling the economy. over 70 percent of respondents said b, u. s. president wasn't doing enough to bring down the price of gas and inflation as a whole. this is, is everything,

everything the race is laid out really just like the greens. i don't, i don't again, i don't, i don't understand. one is i do the same as i do when i'm down there. it is. close mine. i think it is ma'am. you know, i did it by going up everything years like very expensive like ivonya on summer. it's like you see a dog now think honey. i think he's going up, is it very for manage, winning congress and, but i'll, i'll think is going to keep going up because yeah, what's braces? yeah. go up another company. does it get charged that why with every load and with midterm elections right around the corner, the democrats are likely to get a run for their money. they clearly did not the estimate, the impact that the sanctions would have on global inflation and, and to me it seems very, very stupid by use policy makers, you know, just coming off of this terrible cove, it impact on the economy a to take this big risky move here with, with the sanctions. i don't think they were really thinking this thing through very

well. china's cold on the u. s. on these allies to compensates to victims of nato's bombing of yugoslavia 23 years ago, the coast devastation to the local population. you may go is with a 23 years ago, u. s. lead nato blatantly bombarded the federal republic of yugoslavia for $78.00 days without the approval of the un security council. such moves by the u. s. lead nato or shocking nato should solemnly reflect on its war crimes answer for its actions and compensate the victims of the depleted uranium bombs that they dropped as soon as possible. nato must be taught a lesson and stop creating new turmoil in division across the world. as a result of the military campaign, around $2500.00 civilians, including $79.00 children, were killed us, according to serbian officials, thousands more were injured as nate, so asteroids destroyed public infrastructure and residential buildings in an attack lasting 78 days in 99. the operation, the allied force began to win regions of the country was seeking independence and

had been in the states of civil war. ready earlier we spoke to the deputy of the serbian progressive party who lived in kosovo during the bombardment uneven bushy. last year. they bombed our national television and killed many of its employees, striking the headquarters directly. they also bombed all radio telephone and electricity lines before these events i had no idea about the existence of graphite bombs, but they, they used them to cut off the electricity. yeah, very often we civilians had no radio and tv signal, telephone communication and electricity. so very often there was no water, there was nothing at all. that is they were not only fighting against our military that, against our citizens. in particular, they bombed bridges across the danube to cause damage to the civilian population. or the main thing that distinguishes this nato. aggression from a special military operation is that they killed several times more civilians than military now. and most importantly, they bombed this with depleted uranium just therefore there are now many more

cancer cases in serbia than in other european countries. so a union or that's operation was launched without the approval of the un security council, this bypassing international law. and despite resistance from countries like russia, us on this ally started the humanitarian intervention. they still consider to be necessary and legitimate. but in the aftermath of nato's bombing campaign, an international peacekeeping mission was established in yugoslavia. the country dissolved in 2003 with cosmo later declaring full independence from serbia in 2008 . over those states us is still not recognized by bo grade. along with nearly half of the international community. western nations have been the main supporters of kosovo autonomy. we discussed the yugoslavia bombardment and it's us politics with the former foreign minister of yugoslavia. she redone, jo, you're von of ich, it is a clear violation of international law as

a talk on not the diplomacy in international relations. it is indeed the end of hamilton tool in poles and no real or 3rd factors in by want their own relations all sorts r b, i and russia. this is a to be condemned and to be strongly rejected. nato. he is a g tool of a usc and the key tool for expending the 40 c o nation domination or, or to see is that concept of unit ball audio system. and we're, we've got a tendency of move people modernization over relations. we see additional air force to the friend the unit, larry p. c. spend,

by all means out well for this is a like, i tend to act 132, he studied 132 though want tendencies. it is the liberal tech game of nato countries, or they want to win in ukraine and they are who are in i'm a mentor, instructors and advise is all kind of dc support because today is clear and they would like to see we can rush to return to work for a lot, if he is impossible to, we are over. i shall i, he's on so not realistic, but continuing a dish tension. this keeps your up or down keys here up under

control of united states. and then also looking at expanding market for usa and military publics. ah, and finally, former interest bolivian president janine honors has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for allegedly playing a key role must be called a crew that brought her to power in 2019. she says she's innocent and plans to appeal her convictions, international bodies. she's alleged to have organized the so called to which 4th then president, even morale is to resign, allowing her to come to power, bypassing constitutional intellectual reforms. hundreds of bolivians gathered outside the courthouse to celebrate the decision after another sentence was handed down. the investigation was initiated by morality, the left wing party, which we gained office back in 2020 daniel shaw, new york university professor of latin american and caribbean studies. it says the

ruling will be felt in washington. this strike series. so washington, that a peoples government that the m a s in bolivia could try these co mongers. these us sponsored violators of human rights, the perpetrators of the sing, kara massacre in bolivia, jeanine on years is behind bars for 10 years on this says a clear message that the bolivian people will take justice into their own hands regardless of what washington, thanks, time of monroe is them in the 1824 monroe doctrine, the time of south american caribbean as the united states is back yard. that epic of history has ended, but the majority of countries were not at the summit of the americas odds. 22 countries boycotted the summit of the americas. so this polarization

gripping the continent. our federal is set to win with frontier marquez in columbia . we have lula sets when in october, in brazil, the largest economy, a in, in south america. and this is going to shift the side a lulu talking about the sewer are united, south american currency. so this is our sharing in a 2nd wave of boulevard in ism, that represents a lot of hope. in decades, the centuries of resistance across the hemisphere. those are the new stories, the shape, the we care on our t international form on any of them. head over to our website, r t dot com or check on our telegram channel. i'm peter scott, on the back with another look in just over 30 minutes. mm.
