a very well welcome to you. this is dorothy international with the latest world headlines. it's good to happy with us this hour. now don't, yes officials, they 5 people have been killed in 12 wounded in such a day showing of the capital city with around 200 or 20 rounds, fired by the ukrainian forces. residential areas are allegedly being intentionally targeted. ah, he some of the latest footage from the varnish of sky and clay, by shim districts during the aftermath of the attacks with smoke, seen rising above impact sites, local officials, they 2 of the victims were emergency services, workers killed while working at the scene of an earlier selling attack and this
12:02 pm
latest german footage from don. yes. so smoke rising over a building. the city stadium also struck by ukrainian artillery. the number of casualties at that particular site has not yet been confirmed ortiz women caused reports from the scene. the shelling of civilian areas of the nest can continue. this says saturday from the very morning we heard several explosions. right here in the center of the city. just for you to understand this is the arena here in donnette to the one that's welcomed matches of it's one to 12 european championship and a right behind me. a building is on fire. wants to get a lot of civilian infrastructure. had been damaged here in don't ask and well military infrastructure, i haven't heard any damage to it. so for rahman coffer of r t, done as people's republic and university chemistry faculty was among the damage buildings
12:03 pm
. luckily, there's been no reports and victims from that side. a local profess essays, he witnessed the shell ink which he described to us in detail. yes, we're going to city of course, i was just walking along the university campus and was approaching the building when the shelling began. shells were flying right overhead. people were running their explosions all around. i ran up to the university, i was just on my way to work, and then came the explosions. there was shattered glass all around me. i think the shows are probably from the recent deliveries from nato because it showed didn't look like grad rockets, which usually somewhat weaker. and there's a lot more destruction here when you move up with me while washing defense ministry has released fresh footage of its attack. helicopters conducting pinpoints trunks on ukrainian army positions. motion rockets for more than 5 kilometers away from the targets destroying a command post and several vehicles of the opposing side. there's
12:04 pm
been a new twist. it was being called the fake news war over ukraine with a report of the usa today resigning and shame of the outlet admitted she cooked up socks for 23 of her stories. the old, it revealed some individuals close and we're not affiliated with the organizations claimed and appeared to be fabricated. the existence of individuals quoted could not be independently verified. in addition, some stories included quotes that should have been credited to others. as a result, usa today remove 23 articles from its website and build a platform for not meeting our editorial standards. miranda has resigned as a reporter. at least 2 of the report is fake news articles that focused on the conflict in ukraine, alleging negligence by russian forces off the fed sees these apples g, a nuclear power plant in southern ukraine. the boat stars the cool claims the russians have threatened to blow up the facility. while another piece by the shamed reporter focused on the stories of ukrainian women on the front lines which will
12:05 pm
also made up. the outlet has issued an apology for the fake news pieces while promising to improve its fact checking. the poem stories joined a library of fabrications pumped out by the mainstream media since the stars of the military conflict. steve gill, a radio host on political commentator told us it's very troubling that western atlas continues to publish lies about ukraine. i don't think anybody believes if this was the only reporter engaged in this kind of making up quotes, making up stories. it takes a culture to produce that kind of outright buy a pattern. and i think the real irony is this is a publication that does the fact checking for facebook. people that get hired at newspapers by editors that have a liberal bit by their supervisor, to have a liberal, other journalism colleges that they go to that have a liberal that they come in with a perspective that is not necessarily a, an accurate world view. and then it gets promoted with,
12:06 pm
with not only who hires them, but who promotes them. so i think it's a major problem. we've seen it in the us for a long time. and i think it's a dangerous problem because it's, if the public isn't getting the truth, it really is hard for a democracy, a republic operate. i hope that usa today won't stop with this incident again. i think there's a culture of disinformation is taking place in the media globally. and certainly in the united states, we've seen it with the smear campaign directed against president trump in the last 4 years. so i hope that they don't stop with this firing dis apology, and think that their work is done. again, they have hundreds of newspapers and other media outlets. they're owned by ganette and they need to be searching every one to say that the same thing is not happening because i think it's more of a culture than it is just one road reporter. in k prime minister parish, jonathan is facing backlash from nps on fe, skipped to key conference at a time and faith as making a surprise visit to key if something spokes person and i will not be attending the
12:07 pm
summit in the u. k. to thousands, before we are expected to speak at the event. absent leadership pretty much sums up this government's approach to the country's problems. it's not an excuse. he could have gone there any time. even his most loyal supporters here are pretty pissed off . this is the 1st test of outreach to his colleagues and he has failed it. the prime minister is also being accused of showing title content for his colleagues. i want to send these boys. outrage don't come with me being entertained by president lensky and discussing additional u. k military support for ukraine. johnson announced a visit come shortly after the german, french and italian leaders came to talk on thursday. political commentator anthony whether say the british premier is kelly putting his foreign policy agenda with the base that he was citing. eyes were important for me. see, this is
12:08 pm
a foreign country, not for me to recall the interests of my own. my own country is the true. he didn't need to go to the ukraine, but it's almost like he is trying to off stage the 3 key here, man leaders, a messy for france and cool. so to pull from was from we made. and apparently we're trying to look at some piece initiatives in return for foss tracking d u n. c a n c the year. but of course, that's all the master. the key points is that it does seem that the prime minister at the time with national rental strike created many, many economic problems in the u. k. and the food and new fuel crisis,
12:09 pm
along with things which is not catching policy. a gang for public official se sum ukrainian soldier house surrendered as a local chemical plant in the city of several. don't ask officials say the exact number of military prisoners on that. the agent asserted units is not being disclosed for security reasons to avoid the potential persecution of the relatives of surrendered soldiers in ukraine. up to 2 and a half 1000 troops, including foreign mercenaries, i believe, to be hold up inside the city sprawling industrial zone. or several west. the mercenaries were also among a group of recently captured competence in north east. in ukraine. we sat down with 2 of them, both americans to find out what brought them to the war zone. just a warning. we cannot independently verify that claims the. it was reported in or, you know, prior to like january,
12:10 pm
february of this year, i really knew i couldn't even tell you where ukraine was on a map, to be honest. we were not getting that news. but when things kinda started bubbling up and then kicking off here, they did start reporting on the fact that there had been conflict in dumbass for, for the past 8 years. but it was always presented as russian aggression in that area. we were not told about any ukrainian attacks were, were told about the ukrainians is that they were in trenches ready ready to defend initially when the conflict started on february 24th. i saw a lot of news. and again, i now believe that there were propaganda from the west side, not as a we just america, but the west as a whole. that there is that right russian for his work. it like indiscriminately killing like williams and through my travels. i did not see that i
12:11 pm
would say it was probably my eagerness, my stupidity coming here with not a lot of knowledge of the conflict that all. i hope one day i can go home to my wife and start a family and forget the conflict. just try to amend other people not to come here. the me, i don't all the location but we were in the like a forest carkeek area. we engage in combat with russian troops. the ukrainians were retreating and we were asked to cover their retreat. when we were covering them, the russian forces ran over in our position. we had to like fully regina and when one of my colleagues and i waited about 3 hours in a fighting hole, just to make sure the coast is clear. after those 3 hours,
12:12 pm
we ended up walking 4 through the woods for about 5 hours. we eventually got onto the road. when we surrender to russian forces, it's not my war. i feel for the ukrainian and people i feel for the russian people, you know, i feel for everyone involved because, or is, is terrible regardless of the circumstances. i don't know why the west focus is, is just sending weapons, weapons, weapons, money, money, money. there is a diplomatic solution to this problem somewhere, but it's going to take some time to get there. and i just think that they're at this time, they're not willing to deal with it. so they'd rather just give a bunch stuff to ukraine and let it be ukraine's problem. i would say to anyone who's thinking about coming over, you think really long and hard about why you're doing it and what can happen and, and if this is really your fight, if this is really something that you need to be doing now have the,
12:13 pm
was the biggest, the most important business event, the some petersburg international economic form is wrapping up on saturday office several event full days. me on friday rushes president delivered a key speech on global economic issues at the event the military operation. ukraine was also in the spotlight. we're putting stress that russia will not abandon the people who don't boss who need most guys protection and you can use them up with them. this, you should use a course, we will protect the interests of those people for whom are guys fighting that today, getting injured and dying. there is only one way through this. what else to the sacrifices for its course? we will support the people who live in these territories, but in the end, only the people who live there will determine their own future. and we will respect any choice they make the we've got got the thought about it and also waiting on a range of other topics in his speech, including how the so called blitzkrieg of western sanctions against moscow has
12:14 pm
failed. the president mentioned an inevitable end of the unit polar world order and the importance of technological sovereignty to ensure russia can produce and provide for itself while avoiding international self isolation reform also welcome to a number of high profile guests from around the world. among them norwegian, political scientists, glen decent, who explained how russians economy has whether the storm of western sanctions, what the west had, the plan for russia obviously didn't play out because the assumption was stuck with well done before the end of the weekend, effectively the russian economy was going to be decimated, the financial system was supposed to collapse, the currency was spied and said supposed to be made into rubble. and instead we, we see that upset us up. and so the ruble, us is much stronger now than it was even before february. and the financial system has been stabilized as well. they, the economy is set to grow after
12:15 pm
a lot of the supply chains. chains have been to reorganize. and so, obviously, the short term expectation, the short medium term expectation of a lot of western states did not play off the way that they'd be expected to receive well between the western russia. both sides are now expressing a lot of trust has been loss, and both sides argued that they've been preparing to effectively live without other after this divorce is. so it is hard to say how, how to come back together. i think already though, this a lot of discovery of the economic pain. so this a lot of incentives for it to to find a way of a, maybe not going back to the way things work. but finding some ways of working together again. ah,
12:16 pm
with with a blow it julianna's challenge facing up to a 175 years and us prison on espionage charges. his family has denounced their which in each co founder extradition, or to see the u. s. which was approved by london on friday process is being used to hide atrocity and we know that from histories that that can be done and the u. k. should not be doing that. it should not be engaging in prosecution on behalf of the farmer power that is out for revenge. joe's publisher, extradited from the country for publishing evidence of war crime, georgia and corruption. what decision made is that basic journalism journalism that people do everyday thing information? publishing information is now illegal. in the u. k. the u. k. home secretary's
12:17 pm
decision sparked to international outrage, human rights organizations such as the committee to protect journalists and honesty . international have spoken up for judy nathan's. the extradition of julian assange to the united states to face trial on charges under the century old espionage act as a blow to press freedom with implications for journalists everywhere. we urge the bite and administration to live up to it stated commitment to a free press by dropping all charges against the wiki leaks founder, allowing julian of sons to be expedited to the u. s. would put him at great risk incense or chilling message to journalists, the world over we call on the u. k, to refrain from expediting julian assange for the us to drop the charges and for a songy to be freed hard to believe. but it looks real. every serious press freedom group in the world has protested this. it is an appalling symbol of how far the british and american government's commitment to human rights has declined. anyone in this country who cares about freedom of expression should be deeply ashamed that the home secretary has approved. the extradition of julian assange to the united
12:18 pm
states, the country that plotted his assassination. as long as his legal case has been going on for years and 2019 has a file and was revoked in the ecuadorian embassy in london where he'd been hiding since skipping bail. he was arrested by you cale thirty's and sent to the bell marsh, maximum security prison in 2021. off the extradition hearings began, the presiding british judge concluded it would be oppressive to extradite assigns to the us due to his health issues. but that decision was overturned, less than a year later when london supreme court agreed with the us request to hand over the whistleblower. in april, a london magistrate court issued an official extradition order followed by the u. k . home office approving it on friday. i thought came on the us scrutiny in 2010 after wikileaks published troves of classified information about the war in afghanistan under voc, exposing footage of american soldiers indiscriminately gunning down civilians. they
12:19 pm
expose a also revealed torture and prison. a death at the notorious guantanamo bay detention camp. or carla, that pervaded songs. his lawyer in ecuador essays, london's ex, traditional days, or threats to journalists world wide jennifer in so ever since. sec. little grunted political asylum to julian salvage. we have been warning that decisions on the case could set a dangerous precedent. based on these principles, the former president of ecuador rockville coria, described such actions as the persecution of freedom of speech. all this time we have been insisting, and now we are especially insisting that this could be a disastrous precedent for investigative journalism, for freedom of speech. and for us ordinary citizens as recipients of information produced by the media. in other words, any person, any journalists who tries to condemn the illegal actions of a powerful state, will have to serve a prison sentence on the territory of this state. so it's not just about to son.
12:20 pm
this is our common cause of fighting for freedom of speech. and it should consent, all journalists, regardless of where they come from, from what media they represent. because this is a kind of gag law that hinders their activities. florida as governor has a key is the u. s president of dodging personal responsibility for the record high inflation in the country. calling joe biden's position uninstalled to the american people. he needs to take responsibility. it's always trying to blame other people. ah, he's always trying to create a scapegoat. i guess his position is that it wasn't until he became president, that oil companies are trying to make profits. it's insulting to the average a citizen to listen to. some of this drivel are coming out of the white house and because they know people are upset about it. they know they're responsible for. so they're just looking for a buggy man. i to try to pin this on. meanwhile, biden himself has switched to blaming international shipping funds for the crisis
12:21 pm
and assigned a new law. imposing several restrictions on the carriers, the legislation prohibits them from unreasonably declining exports and limits them from imposing additional fees on contain handley in response, the well shipping counsel stated that the restrictions will only cramp existing supply chain problems within the us itself is comes in with a standoff between biden and oil refinery companies depressed and urge them to ramp up the output to lower prices at the pump. as americans struggle with the backlash of us sanctions against russia, there is no question. the latter mere prudent is principally responsible for the intense financial pain, the american people and their families are bearing. but amid a war that has raised gasoline prices, historically high refinery profit margins are worsening. that pain globally, we've invested double what we've earned over the past 5 years. this is a reflection of the company's long term growth strategy and our commitment to
12:22 pm
continuously invest to meet society's demand for our products. unfortunately, what we have seen since january 2021 are policies that send a message that the administration names to impose obstacles to our industry, delivering energy resources, the world needs foreign affairs security. unless the market about a phase president biden is simply trying to shift the attention of the us taxpayers and voters from his own political failures. as an inviting is simply in error. and with this latest round of who he's trying to find blame from, it becomes more apparent. what he's really trying to do is shift blame from himself in the run up to the u. s. november congressional election where his approval rating as tank down below 40 percent currently at 39 percent, which does not bode well for the democratic party going into those election. the political cost of his actions are,
12:23 pm
are coming home to roost. and he or his party doesn't want to accept the consequences of that. they hope that they could spin their way out of this stack. by mean, what by didn't means is my economic war against russia is failing tax. right? that is biden's tax. it was russia the sanction the united states in the us, the sanction or russia i the by did ministration in an attempt, a rather economically unsound attempt to cut russians commodities. again, that are so valuable to the entire global economy, out of the global economy, resulting in these runaway prices for energy and food which drive up the prices of everything else. a member of the alternative for germany party
12:24 pm
says he could face up to 3 years behind bars for publicly supporting russia. while speaking at a city council meeting, stephanie rachel says he was proud of russia, the sufficiency finding the launches, military operation, and don't bus. terminal authorities are now due to question the politician over his statement, which could amount to a violation of german anti war law. and an exclusive interview to auntie, he commented on the development of his case and accused the government of to shut down the cent it was sheila mother boz forgotten. i was invited for questioning by an organization under the german criminal police. they accused me under article $140.00 of advertising wool. you could get away with a fine or you could face up to 3 years in prison. for me, it's ridiculous. there is an investigation going on right now, but i have no idea what they're going to investigate. my opinion has not changed. what has been said is already said, i will comment more in courts if it comes to us. it's all absurd. you know, i haven't promoted either. russia will the special operation. i have just express
12:25 pm
my opinion. in addition, it was made as the result of discussions on normalizing relations between my city and both the nets and guns as twin city. i think that authorities are trying to silence those who do not shed the point of view of the establishment as they do not like such situations of all of those. i can't understand their point of view, but apparently basis is a threat. i don't think there's just a few of us people with an adequate opinion. i believe there are quite to lots of people. he simply remain silent when he, thanks for joining us. hey, allah t international web. back at the top of the hour, with all the latest headlines, we'll see that ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation,
12:26 pm
let it be an arms race is on, often very 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 with ah, there had 2 or 3 i spoke earlier with her. what are your thousands of people still live in small towns and villages? that have become the new frontline towards that record that they call this area the greys a
