a she's done. yeah. of course that ah assassinated on the campaign trail. japan's former prime minister sions though all bay has died after being shot by a lone gunman who says that he had planned the attack. brushes, foreign minister urges western powers to make up their minds about what they really want ukraine be at peace talks or fight till the end of the what the oil is. this western geometry demonstrated that the main thing here is that ideology instead of the concerned ukrainian citizens, the country itself, or even european security plus africa nation struggle with fuel shortages and rapidly inc. escalating costs with western sanctions against russia,

with far reaching collateral damage. with all the top stories around the globe is out here in to national coming to you from our studios here in moscow. i'm charlotte even sky, a warm welcome to the program. well, japan's for my prime minister sion so all bay has died in hospital after being show us an election campaign event. a man detained after the shooting has said that he did intend to kill a former prime minister. oh, the shocking attack took place in the japanese city of nora. people at the scene did attempt to revive off a before the paramedics arrived, but the former premier was an air lifted to hospital but was said to have no vital signs. on arrival. doctors though, tried for several hours to save his life,

but said that he bled to death from 3 deep wounds, including 2 on his neck. the alleged attacker identified as a 41 year old call test, c, u. a yama gamete did not resist the arrest. and it's now in police custody report says that he's a former member of japan's navy. he's also believed have used a homemade double barreled firearm resembling a saw an off shot gun. the $41.00, your own is also reported to have told the police that he was frustrated with the former premier minister, who he believed to be part of a specific organization. and that he did have the intention of killing him. now, according to a japanese broadcaster, police have found what's believe to be explosive devices in the apartment of the alleged shooter. local residents were reported to have been asked to have moved to a safe distance from the scene. we've been hearing more details about the attack

from a local reporter in japan. you for god core level control. there are no words except confusion and refusal to recognize violence against the politician. at the latest footage from the murder scene shows that people are already bringing flowers there . there are elections to the upper house of parliament in japan on sundays, and there's always active campaigning on the day before. but apparently, the liberal democratic party will cease all his activities on this day due to the killing options of lobby. however, public sympathies will likely be on the side of his political party, ken, so based 9 years as prime minister made him a longer serving premier in japan's history. that was until he resigned citing health issues back in 2020. now he remained influential in the ruling liberal democratic party for which he was actually promoting the candidates ahead of parliamentary elections. this coming weekend, former british diplomat, william melanson says japanese society is facing

a deepening polarization. ah, it was not sufficiently naturalistic. that there are 2 kinds at least 2 kinds of japanese nationalists, the kind that want the americans in there too. and we wouldn't like it are prepared to accept american nuclear weapons there to flex their own muscles against their traditional enemies, russia and china, on the one hand. but on the other hand, you have to remember you have the more extreme somewhere i tradition, where you must get all foreigners out and make it powerful. japan once will be worrying people. now, in this highly complex situation in the whole world, is, is japanese society, political society. going to become polarized into the more left wing, anti nuclear, anti american, anti nato lobby on the one hand. and on the other hand,

those of the more model to tradition, like, for example, you have at the moment, japan, if you like, as the west of the east, you have societal tensions building up the defense spending has gone up. the possibility is that they will be hosting nuclear weapons. so these are enormous questions and i think to speculate now and say the japanese society is going to become more naturalistic, is dangerous. but it could happen. western powers are preventing russia from exporting grain by blocking access to foreign port. that's at least according to russia's foreign minister who's been speaking at the meeting of g twenty's top. diplomats. this is sort of a lab rove, who's also warned that western states want to take the shipment of grain under their full control. so the so, so for the words, this last for the use of good supplies of russian grains, there are no barriers on our side or was at the west as imposed restrictions on our

ships or, or stuck in the access to ports or restricting financial payments for the transit include supplies such we have drawn attention to this or this includes situations in the black sea. if the west wants to get the grain out there so badly, it needs to make clear that the mind, the black sea ports and that it ships leave for the territorial waters of ukraine's or with us all. and russia for the health turkey is ready to ensure the security of such convoys in the open sea of the problem is that our western colleagues want to create an international monitoring mechanism for this process. more clearly striving to set up this mechanism with the participation of nato's navy. lumniss talked about this recently and we clearly understand exactly what they want. now said caleb has held talks with his chinese and brazilian counterparts on the sidelines all that forum. meanwhile, brazil's president is criticized with sanctions imposed by the u. s. and the year against russia. political and foreign policy expert sort of come, i'll do it her believe said the looming feed crisis has to be addressed at that g

20 meeting. he says it's a pressing issue with millions of people now expected to be affected by food insecurity. sanctions on getting that thoughts you know, on graph can claim i think these are some but i think we need to be addressed that because it's quite obvious that yes, there has been sanctions on russia on very unusual relationship in your premium was much really fans stupid question of grain man far for me and each and every individual like girlfriend, no biking bed, has to be on a viewpoint in relation to bathroom. after all, the rain reach out to being, it's from the last year or the food brains which are going to import it into this. i meant for common people left that you know and do some men for no reason to be drugs who have nothing to do with the walk. well meanwhile, if someone has be,

might buy some rather and diplomatic behavior. and some of the g 7 foreign ministers have tried hard to avoid bumping in to set up a lot of at that event west and officials of apparently refused to have a dinner. even take the traditional group photo with russia's foreign minister in a boy court that's reportedly been spearheaded by the us secretary of state antony blinking. now for his part lab rove says that the west puts its own ideological priorities above the peace efforts for ukraine. yeah, fit in the form taken the liberty of reminding western colleagues about what they've been saying all these previous months and asking them to decide what they actually want. if it's piece of furniture cream, which is not. and i feel if they want your crimes victory of a rush on the battlefield instead, then i guess there is nothing to talk about with the west. because such an approach means they are not collab ukraine to move towards pieces. and this western geometry demonstrate that the main thing here is the ideology, is the concern for ukrainian citizens, the country itself,

or even european security as a whole, isn't much. hello. well, that says us senate says meet with president the lensky in kiev, highlighting the importance of washington support for ukraine. but it appears that not every battle should be sought with weapons, with one sen cooling, full hand to hand fighting long range. artillery is very, very important. but so is the hand to hand insurgency that we are hoping to see in eastern ukraine, in the territory that's already been occupied by the russians. the director of the trans national foundation for peace and feature research thing tank believes that some of the pe be of the politicians that the g 20 belies the status as diplomats. this is not a way for a suit, a power politician to behave. but i think it's childish, it's, it's have been a lie, sation of politics that you don't even want to be in the same picture or shake

hands or share and dinner people sitting at the same table. this is not a mature, this is not a reasonable. there's nothing to do with diplomacy, professionalism, and if you listen to the indonesia precedence, well come speech. when he talked about peace, he talks about sustainability. he talks about mutual respect, tom runs a batch, a world, et cetera. and they are simply doing the opposite and misusing a meeting, which was not supposed to be about you crying or the conflicts in europe. but in about humanities problem. the western own sloth against russia has failed. what moscow still needs to remain vigilant in the face of new sanctions. that's according to russian president vladimir putin, who's been mulling over his country's economic strategy during a meeting with top officials. that was the way, the so called economic blitzkrieg by our ill wishers against russia has of course

fail to. however, some damage is still being done to our economy by the sanctions and restrictions and some risks to do will remain for president painting. i spoke with a gas prom heads early on friday. the 1st time after he said, he admitted that the has been an impact on the russian economy from these unprecedented sanctions on the all the way still ahead. so what russia is going to have to do is just go with the punches, so to speak. and that's what he's doing is focusing on increasing its output to different energy market. because you has implemented another round of sanctions against russia, including an oil embargo, russian companies should already be prepared for this move for our key priority is include the build up of gas development infrastructure in russian regions, as well as the diversification of ex, your city to promising southern and eastern markets, urine speaking, following that meeting with the gas prom heads,

president patient didn't just focus on russia. he also focused on the global impacts that these massive loads of sanctions on russia having he talks about how your pay is now facing and a massive energy crisis. and that people might not even be able to heat their home sufficiently. this coming wind said there's also of course, the massive impacts that this will have on companies throughout europe. without those energy supplies, they might even be forced to fold. and then of course, we have mass unemployment. we have more people on the bread line and then we have the, the huge impacts to those economies as well. and so while european bracing for hard times, president putin says, and he speaks today that he wants to protect the russian people from feeling the severe impacts of these uneasy times. and so, as you will talk to these latest rounds of sanctions, which includes that oil embargo and he wants russian companies to be braced and ready to lo with it as best they can. ah, now he shines,

have been for me at gas stations in ethiopia with the east african countries struggling with fruit shortages and rapidly escalating costs. some drivers the said to have waited as long as 8 hours for diesel to fill up at the pump. now authorities have increased the price of diesel by 38 percent as they cut government fuels subsidies. previously, ethiopian consumers only paid about a quarter of the regular global rates for the feel. as a result of that, state 8 costs serv been skyrocketing around the world is transport disruptions and punitive sanctions of impacted supplies of essential commodities. because as i look yours, i think it was a hasty decision. it has not taken poor people into consideration when transport providers increase prices, the merchants, and turn increase the price of their goods. therefore, we are the ones affected. malavar lou, our guy i've been in the queue for at least 45 minutes. i think the fuel crisis is

a global problem. i think it is related to the lack of stability globally. we all understand there is supply chain disruption that most of the global oil supplies due to a lack of places. now, because i don't think it's fair to blame the government while there was a lack of supply. so you know, i have learned that russia and ukraine contribute a lot to the world. obviously that is why the cost of living and fuel prices have increased heavily due to the conflict between these 2 countries in an unprecedented way. the world will greatly benefit if there is peace between these 2 countries in nothing. now elsewhere on the continent, they're all cool for process nationwide in south africa, that comes to seal prices have risen to record heights. as ortiz pool, a slayer explains the new height comes with many in the country. struggling to just make ends me the price of fuel has gone up again in south africa, climbing maybe 50 percent in the last year alone. just this week it broke a new record with many people choosing to work from home while the truck drivers

flocked main roads in protest and plant more strikes, motorists are getting increasingly more fit up with the constant types and blame the government for not regulating fuel prices. and that's putting more pressure on the economy. everything is expensive. we suffered a close. everything is going on with the problem to all of us can do with this car into a keeps almost one those 100-1000 is that it is they had 5. would they have to because this is somebody who would need to speak to dad to did the right people. maybe they can make something they can reduce the petra. it's really hurting my pocket a lot. because i mean, i think from when i started driving 7 years ago, the, the price of petrol is doubled. and putting in 200 ran just for

a day of hardly driving anyways. it's horrible there's, there's a lot of rates and taxes, but i think it's a bit overkill at the moment. i think that they can be a better solution that the government says it's hands are tied because south africa depends on international markets for its fuel supplies. with between 70 and 80 percent of local fuel coming from foreign import. since february, when russia and ukraine went to war, international oil prices have risen dramatically. shows the world's 3rd largest producer of crude oil. the waste economic sanctions on moscow have lived poor african countries literally having to pay the price south africa. the neighbors, along with other african countries, have subsequently been rocked by protests, learned crisis in africa, have been ignored. the crisis in the start here in, for example, ladies risk of starvation. in fact, i've said in many parts of the continent, in fact,

a report was released earlier this year. that said that can of the most significant crisis in the world actually occurring in the africa and the a norm. and this is something that is very, very harmful to africa because the global community has taken his eyes off spaces where autocrat and honda, as we read, can have all on the continent for the high are expected next month when the petroleum government says it will end a temporary fuel subsidy program because it can no longer afford it. the result is cash strapped to consumers being pushed to crisis point, many of whom already cannot afford the more than 50 percent increase in food products and they're threatening to take to the st. the lack of a solution now leave both the country and the region closer to crisis point policy a r t. no space will be alarm is being raised by the red course over the plight of millions of civilians in yemen,

which has been ravaged by 8 years of civil war with a suffering being exacerbated by reoccurring hostilities. some of the local women say that they have no access to health care. hello cindy berkener, on many occasions during the peak of the violence, i had the choice of either staying home and dying from my illness at all. risking getting caught in a crossfire while trying to reach the nearest dialysis center. i was assigned to a cancer center in mccalla hundreds of kilometers away. i couldn't afford transportation between treatment sessions and i couldn't bear the long road to get that. now i'm just sitting in my tent waiting for death to release me from my agony . yeah. but more women in labor are reaching the health facility too late, and that's caused by road blocks and the unavailability of transportation due to violent clashes. according to the report by the red cross, nearly 66 of the m in percent of the amans people currently lack access to basic

health care. that includes 6000000 women who desperately need medical assistance. nearly 5000000 a suffering from severe hunger with pregnant fan breastfeeding women. amongst them one mother and 6 newborns reportedly die every 2 hours in yemen. now the conflict in yemen is taken a devastating toll on civilians across the country with people suffering from constant shelling and air strikes. as though delayed military coalition has been waging a relentless assault on who c rebels in yemen, some human rights groups have drawn attention to the fact that the saudi lead forces have actually been using weapons and ammunition that was supplied by western countries. that includes the u. s. and the u. k. one of the red cross reports authors is busha omar, and he gave us a 1st hand account of the humanitarian disaster in yemen. look yeah i was there was

i kid this millennia, the lady with began said like i, i met her, i met heading person last week. i was in mad it. so she told us in all my last wish, before i die that i need an ac. because i, i want like i want to die in peace. this is where she sat. imagine. i mean it's, it's unbelievable. i'm done. it was, was very difficult because the ladies, you know, is almost dying unheard. i 7 years old, you know, girl, she's taking her. she says she's not, can go ahead and even believe the little girl, you know, where it was like, you know, was forced to leave her to up and, and had, is called a school because she needed like to take care of. it appeared, mom it's, it's, it's so it's so it's so it's so it's so horrible. you cannot imagine it. no, we were trying our best, you know, to, to draw the attention of the, of the, of the international community and the world to the blight of, of, of gemini people. i know, and we're saying that to the world should not, you know,

turn a blind eye on what is going on. yeah, man. either i millions of people in yemen who need to know we need to support from the international community and international organization on the wall should not only focus on on a specific goal context. but they also showed, you know, focus more on the humidity and situation and that many people should not be, should not be left alone a facing, you know, their fate. ah, now india launch is multiple raids against chinese enterprises over alleged money laundering cases. a china says the probes disrupt business activities between the 2 countries and therefore undermine investor confidence. ortiz correspondent, lunch and sharma. as more on this story, i miss doing economic ties between beijing and your day in dallas last, multiple raids against chinese companies accusing them all financial irregularities

forces has been floated russia missile defenses, apparently prevented the plant from being hit. and that plant is continuing to operate. now, in the neighboring la gans republic, russian that forces have been advancing westward off declaiming control of the last ukrainian stronghold. back while senior correspondent maurice gas div visited russian artillery positions near the city of b. c chance. and he sent us this report here, high up, you can already hear and you can see how bitter the fighting is over there. perhaps an ammunition dump or storage site had been hit. you may hear multiple rocket launcher systems in action by the sound of it grad miss us. but the entire horizon is on fire. hope with other the, the big fire plumes of smoke behind the power lines. also across the horizon right there in the distance impacts that is russian auxilary,

striking at ukrainian positions in the vicinity of the city of savvy ask russian artillery. it is no secret, has been a decisive factor on the battlefield. and here in the fields in the country side of the don bass, it has been hyper active here at what once ukrainian artillery positions ah, russian self propelled how it is 152 millimeter houses, firing at ukrainian positions near the city of sierra every shot for it to count requires complicated calculations, mathematics, solid intelligence, and guidance from spotters, and drones when williamson newark, where you write a firing position, were 2 s. 19 howitzers. are my command right now that we might,

were working effectively with logan's forces surging at the call center. we will, there's a new battle field experience here every day. what we're constantly improving our skills, but the ukrainians aren't idle either. time to time. they put up a flight, especially in the brief window after they receive additional nato weapons shipments . and before they are destroyed, again, schooled several opinion shelton now impacted in the field with their 510 minutes. it's. it's unclear what they're shooting out. there's absolutely nothing there. it's, it's empty, but probably to get it probably best to, to get away civilians here are used to the thundering violence. they carry on with their lives, like this woman who bikes to milka cows every day. she told us how ukrainian troops

here deserted their posts. they think he thinking it's too they ran away. his cronyn soldiers told us that up commands as had flat even before they did. we call them they were only surgeons left behind. that is another position abandoned by ukrainian troops and nationalists who fled this area just to the west of the city of blizzard chance. a 50 caliber browning, machine gun, supplied by nato states, most likely abandoned here without the ammunition belt. but over here also, we found foreign grenade launchers and anti tank missiles. this, this is polish. 100 percent. sure what this is in our g a r g 90. hi believe. but all of this again supplied by both of states still
