development and get into this, i don't see how that strategy will be successfully very difficult time. time to sit down and talk a. 6 furious protest is in sure lancaster, capital storm, the president's home and all over the government failure to sold the country's worth economic crisis. in decades, we report from the theme i bear. with that your line is police resorted to dancing the demonstrators with dozens injured amid the ongoing chaos. plus these here is it

particularly nasty thing. this is cool. i leave my knees all over of course, want to expose a one thing bottled oil, refinery and mil. again, 50 of least chance why he discovers schools of band musicians allegedly planted by ukrainian troops with a flag and china 2 on grains on the ground on the dollar us. it is a new survey shows 85 percent of the will. central banks either hold or intended to hold the chinese national current state a 6 pm here in moscow. this is all the international with audio global news update. thanks for joining us. i'm charlotte, even are now is thousands of protesters occupying the shoreline. can president

official residents, party leaders demand both the head of state and the government? step down. oh, president, good boy, i got puncture has said to be in hiding off to more than a 100000. demonstrators filled the streets around his residence and office in colombo, saturday. and then spoons in both protesters won't the countries leadership to resign over their failure to curve the countries worse, economic crises. in decades. now, many of the demonstrators who stormed the residents were pitches, as you can see, making themselves at home, some even taking a deep in the president's pool, while others relaxed on his beds and safely. meanwhile, the country's prime minister has agreed to resign. no fed meeting with political party leaders. now riot police use t a gas against demonstrators. i mean flashes across the capital,

at least 55 people have said have been injured, including one law maker. a curfew was imposed in colombo on friday, but it was late to lift it due to the demands of opposition need is a local journalist to sent us this report from the heart of the turmoil. all today marks the completion of the good month that the struggle started here. and so i've got to get rid of the one tool and then leadership. i've done other than a plan of family and i've yeah, in the center of the city, the level fort area where people have to go see behind me modern boards to take a look at this. i discovered that would be yeah, that it out today. by so much i fractions. i so much of people with

good i meet with often the government led by the prime minister to go with. i already got a dog with people. with washer lanka has been reeling for months of violent processed, civil,

what's been called an economic disaster. the country is essentially bankrupt and has defaulted on its foreign debts. for the 1st time in its history, has been soaring, inflation and acute shortages which have prompted the government to ration fuel and all the supplies of foreign policy experts at the observer research foundation. think tank told us that the crisis insure lanka has put the entire region security at state that you cannot make frustration has reached a stage where the frustration with the government administration has just screwed over to the streets. they think there was a certain level of economic mismanagement, misuse of the foreign money that they were getting. so right now it's a very, very desperate. it is important that sri lanka does not slip into deals and the measures of the political class to stay below it. i often for the phone,

whether it's an all party government or whether it be some other arrangement. ah, it is important that he asked me over to you if there is chaos, definitely in back security in the region. meanwhile, over in east africa, the directional mich situation is also provoked. massive unrest there. hundreds of kenyans have taken to the streets and protests at rapidly rising costs of living, many saying that they are increasingly struggling to put food on the table. now the government has blamed the crisis on the conflict in ukraine some 8000 kilometers away, saying that its affected prices all around the world. now costs have been surging with the price of basic food stuff, such as flower shook and cooking oil doubling in recent weeks. protests is a plane, the government for the economic hardships with crowds gathering in front of the president's administrative building. to express that outrage some claim,

the government has been treating them like slaves. i want to let you know what to do on up fine. children are starving to death, and honestly, we are suffering simply because we cannot afford even a pack of corn flower or may not. even the most common fish produced in kenya is now too expensive. but you saw it had austin's members of the community to come out of our houses and bring to the attention of the government that the cost of living is daily rising and it is now hurting us. many families are slipping hungry. we have the underprivileged depart, believe that i'm not finding it hard driven for poor report food on the table. we want to ask the government that they must now come forward and address this issue. ah, well, let's head to the front lines of the ukraine conflict. now where genetic authorities

have set the ukrainian shelling of residential areas in the republic on friday, killed at least 3 civilians that included one student in the city of color, cova, where the local mer released images of the tax aftermath. residential buildings and public infrastructure are reported to have come under fire, wounding at least 11 people, including 3 children, the capital city dynette school was also targeted with 2 women reportedly killed in the shelling there. in recent days, a total of 7 civilians have been declared killed following ukrainian military attacks. now next report from our senior correspondent, he's been visiting an oil refinery in the once in battle city of lucy chance in the elegance republic, the city which is now under control of russian lead forces. exploring the facility, the archie crew came across an abundance of apparently prohibited land mines that

kiev had bow to dismantle, in accordance with international treaties. r t 's maria carstairs, reports ah, the dawn bass is a beautiful land, pucca green and verdant. but it burns fine, wide violence, mangles the horizon here that violence is centered around the lease. he chanced oil refinery reaching here was neither safe, no easy. this is a vast industrial zone surrounded by open terrain of firing range for artillery. industrial complex itself, though, is incredibly similar to mary. you builds infamous as of steel. plant warren have buildings, tunnels and defenses. just as they did in mario pl here at the least

a chance or refinery. if radian tube see the nationalists, they, they build a real fort were covered with foreign positions. they left here as they did maribelle without much of a fight. but when russian troops and allied forces came in, they were met with a storm of artillery and rockets. nothing has been spared in the endless shelling. ukraine has thrown almost everything in its arsenal at the refinery, as i say, the situation of lucy chance cooler finally remains very heads. ukrainian har tillery multiple rocket launcher systems, grog graham key pouring out the wall refinery in a beat to sloop. the russian advance in the area of the plant itself is enormous.

but you can literally just point the camera and any direction, wait 1015 minutes and there will be an impact. oh, it isn't just the sky. and the shells screaming through it that a dangerous, but the ground itself, we were warned in no uncertain comes to watch our every step. now these here is a particularly nasty thing. this is called a leaf mine or lipa stalk in russian because obviously of the size and shape of it in the color are reminiscent. have i leave it would be now on impossible to spot this in a wooded area. the explosion it produces, if disturbed, is enough to tear off someone's heel. and these are all over the oil refinery. the ukrainian military has been spreading these all over the place. ah,

careful, careful, careful. adding these all over the place via oregon rockets, cosette markets, which open up and drop hundreds. so does he a shed a video with us showing what would happen if you set one off or is what it looks like? a piece, there's a container in this section of mine which is, which is thicker. if pressed the to burst and the destination happens, it is possible to disarm it. if you pick it up very everson gently, ah, ever so gently, by this part, the thin pot and unscrew with destiny. these shouldn't even be here. ukraine had signed and ratified the auto mind band

convention. these mines were explicitly band it, it assured the international community that it had the steroids it stop. paul's what's worse, these are old. soviet make and lack the vital self destruct mechanism. the triggers after 3 or 4 days, these could potentially stick around for decades. the niecy chance all refinery is thou relatively far from the front lines. the thunder and roar of bloss here is slowly waning, but what happened here? the blind mining of dozens of square kilometres of industrial property of farms and fields will haunt this place and the local population. for years, more at guys the of r t, from the la guns people's republic. emma's name is from all over the world commemorating the 1st day of one of the biggest holidays of these lam,

a canada eat, al adena. now in eastern salem, some $150000.00 worshippers, performed a dell and a prayer at teresa limbs, alex and mosque. compound, israel's military had said some restrictions on travel would be newson during the holiday. however, reports claim that police set up dozens of road blocks and conducted searches, preventing many palestinians from reaching the islamic holy science. meanwhile, in saudi arabia, around a 1000000 pilgrims travel to the holy city of mecca for what saudi authorities, a cooling, the largest pilgrimage since the cove at 19 pandemic ended the event in afghanistan on hundreds, also put into mosques to pray. e, ah, now the central banks around the world are becoming increasingly keen to whole chinese,

you on as a reserve currency. that's according to the latest survey by the swiss economic powerhouse u. b. s. countries have been seeking to shift their currencies from the dollar in order to be less exposed to the u. s. dominant over the global financial system ortiz, rachel blevins, explains b, u. s. dollar may still hold the title of the world's reserve currency, but as big as competitors continue to gain ground, especially as washington steps up, its attempts to use economic power as a weapon against countries it doesn't get along with. but while the us has been turning up this thing, sions, countries like china has been on the ra, if in fact, according to the latest annual reserves survey from u. b as 85 percent of central banks say they either hold or want to hold the chinese you want. and that's no coincidence. as mainstream analyst admit that washington's campaign to target and isolate russia this year has led to concern that other countries will be next on the list. and that they could receive similar

treatment if they don't go along with demands from the u. s. as a result of the current economic climate, central banks average share of us dollar holdings was 63 percent in june, down significantly from 69 percent in 2021. this as other countries, such as argentina and iran, have expressed interest in joining the bricks group of countries, which as it stands right now represents around 40 percent of the world's population and 25 percent of the global economy. so useless, but together with bricks partners, we are developing reliable alternative mechanisms for international settlements. we are exploring the possibility of creating an international reserve according to that based on a basket of current duties and with the western camp, and isolate russia from swift. moscow's alternative payment system has only continued to grow and now works with more than $50.00 for an organization. from 12

countries, this all comes trying to confirm that is in the process of creating a you on reserve fun with indonesia, malaysia, hong kong, chill, a and singapore with each country planning to contribute around 2.2 $1000000000.00 presenting a clear challenge to the dominance of the u. s. dollar. meanwhile, countries like egypt are also looking for ways to survive without the big buck. as cairo sees the ways in which the current sanctions against russia stand to hurt its own economy. russian tourists are also among the biggest spenders in the egyptian tourism sector. from that perspective, it makes sense for egypt to try to maintain these relations. the only way to do so under the current sanctions regime is to bypass the u. s. lead financial system which has become unduly restrictive, and it's by threats from the u. s. other countries are continuing to do big business with russia. with reports noting that an indian cement company may be historic purchase of russian call and you on rather than dollars. that could also be the case in the future for saudi arabia and reports from earlier this year that

the nation was considering one day selling oil and china currency, which would have a major impact on the energy industry. it comes as no surprise that the u. s. is not happy and it has been critical of all threats to the dollars dominance. who wouldn't like to see mechanisms that are designed to prop up the rebel or to undermine the dollar based financial system or to sicken vans of financial sanctions was started as a trickle is beginning to look like a stream. and then all comes in response to a us government that knows exactly how powerful its currency is and has been years working to weaponized it against other countries. the only problem, all those countries are now starting to show there is strength in numbers. as a pushback with increasing power, the problem is that there's a real, ah, there's a real split in where the united states, you go even with washington d. c. i've been identifying i, what i think is

a sincere split between the federal reserve in commercial banking interest in the u . s. and white house policy and us treasury policy. i don't think those 2 groups are on the same page, and i think there's a very strong group of people within the us who realize that having the world's reserve currency is a burden we can no longer afford to have. and lar, encouraging this kind of d dollarization, the big question now is, when will saudi arabia break their currency peg to the us dollar? once the saudis do that? i think we, we want to what, what look at that as a kind of step function in the the rate of d dollars ation. we're going to move into a different regime in terms of globalization of other countries that china is dominance in solar panel of production a the threat to the west screen agenda. not according to a new report from the paris based international energy agency, which ones western countries to rapidly increase their share of the industry. china

produces more than 80 percent of the world's poly silicon that uses solar panels and it's those. so at a fraction of the cost of western compasses is, but the international energy agency has cautioned that the e u and u. s. shouldn't depend on those supplies and should into instead bruce that own manufacturing. particularly if the e u wants to reach its the road. michelle go within the next 3 years, it's called on the u. s. to quote drupal it solar panel production reportedly to avoid trade policy risks with beijing. china has been instrumental in bringing down costs worldwide for solar power, with multiple benefits for clean energy transitions. at the same time, the level of geographical concentration in global supply chains also poses potential challenges that governments need to address as well. struggles with a severe energy crisis due to

a disruption in supply change. the thought perhaps of china controlling it, developing energy sources, raising western phase. but whereas the previously accused beijing of ignoring its green agenda, it's goal of reaching 0 emissions by 2050 could now rely entirely on china. independent experts and re lung says china's wall in the globe move to green energy is vital a time as the walls because manufacturer and the biggest trader, and 130 countries of china is the largest trading partner. compare. ready only for the 740 united states to try to embed it in, well, the flying very chain, especially on the energy of the green energy. i mean, the solar panel, what's all, all the, most of the world's manufacturing sorta panel designer. together with the kind of special mechanism minerals most law in china. so i think that this is the reality

and the irony is that in the united states there was a cam saying that i still don't have the veracity of climate change and best of interest. ready oil and, and, and also bills and most of all the don't have the infrastructure. so the more affordable solar panels a to the world. but in this age group all power, great power arriving between charter united states and china and honestly keeps all this campaign or even china now, the u. k. government has launched a new initiative to up hold the power in the rights of media outlets to present that coverage to the public. however, he is not on the list. an amendment is designed to guard against the betray removal

of articles from journalists at t recognized news outlets when shared on social media platforms. the so called online safety bill seeks to ensure that social media platforms can't delete news articles from their platforms without 1st notifying the publishers and giving them a chance to appeal. however, the initiative doesn't hold equal standards for russian media with web news outlets such as r t dot com and sputnik outright bend in the u. k. now, the british government's new bill is unfeasible. that's according to a petition for more than a dozen rights organizations. they say the largest ation would actually clamp down on people's rights to express their opinions on social networks. international editor of the morning star newspapers, steve sweeney says, the bill would strengthen the government's power to decide which media the public can access. this is a great concern, not just to journalist,

but to freedom and democracy. really. this is the bill that's being presented. the online safety bill is gives unprecedented powers to the states to determine what media people can access. the amendments don't really offer any safeguards the i can see. so this is really targeting an alternative or alternative viewpoint. and of course the situation in ukraine has made them kind of want to, to focus on so much more. because at the moment in the british media, in particular, and the same in the united states, i know that there is only one narrative that is being presented to the public. and that narrative is the same narrative. the push government as the united states government is nato. this is incredible by any country that calls and calls itself a democracy to restrict the, you know, the right to information in such a way,

i think is, is absolutely unprecedented. and we should, we should, you know, we should do all that. we can to oppose it that says from us, besides, the hope that you can stay with us here in our scenes. national will be back in the next 35 minutes with a, with a one with a,

with a conflict. the under give meant in africa or in south america and asia. interestingly, none of these are being raised in the past 6 months. so back to india or not, it has been shifted a new crane and so that is more of a reason to us, you know, be all to exist, not

a problem with a you might look and you live most schools, if you look on the initial be welcome not to have had you lou post on zillow, while diaz can use the but by the way, you would, you do do ordering. but you also the was the done those of your lewis, but i mean, he did mostly, i didn't so much of that. going to thought that i've gone wrong, but just to submit, i lose you. but i see these do you need both though? group you medation says deuce nod to do it on

bob ah, unit 731, did everything from exploding bombs laced with anthrax next to prisoners who were tied to steaks in a field. we have evidence that they gave disease infected chocolates to children. i plead guilty to having exercised to direct guidance of preparations for conducting biological warfare, chiefly against the soviet union. biological bombs were to be dropped on
