5:08 pm
of the government that the cost of living is daily rising and it is now hunting us . many families are slipping hungry. we have the underprivileged depart believe that are not finding it hard driven for poor report foot on, on the table. we want to ask the government that they must now come forth on douglas, this issue. ah, let's head now to the front lines of the ukraine conflict, where done. net authorities said that ukrainian shelling of residential areas in the republic on friday killed at least 3 civilians. batting treated one incident in the city of god lapka, where the local mer released images of the aftermath of the attacks. residential buildings and public infrastructure are reported to come and to fire, wounding at least 11 people, including 3 children, the capital city. donetta was also targeted with 2 women reported he killed in the shelling. in recent days, a total of 7 civilians have been declared k at dead following ukrainian military

attacks. now next we have a report from our senior correspondent. he's been visiting an oil refinery in the once in battle. city of lacy chanced in the lou counts for public. the city is now under the control of russian at forces. exploring the facility, the archie crew came across an abundance of apparently prohibited land mines that kiev had found to dismantle, in accordance with international treaties, artes more at gas to have reports. ah, the don bass is a beautiful land, poco, greed, and verdant. but it burns far and wide violence, mangles the horizon here that violence is centered around the least chance oil refinery reaching
5:10 pm
here was neither safe nor easy. the seas a vast industrial zone, surrounded by open terrain of firing range for artillery. industrial complex itself, though, is incredibly similar to mary. you bulls infamous as of steel plant, a warren have buildings, tunnels, and defences. just as they did in mario bull here at the least, the chance all refinery. you radian tube, sir. the nationalists, they, they built a real fort, were covered with foreign positions. they left here as they did variable without much of a fight. but when russian troops and allied forces came in, they were met with a storm. have artillery and rockets. nothing has been spared in the endless shelling. ukraine has thrown almost everything in its arsenal at the refinery. as i
5:11 pm
say, the situation of felicity chance cooler finally remains very heads ukrainian. ha tillery ah, multiple rocket launcher systems grab. we're gonna keep wiring out the wall. refineries are 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 this here is a particularly nasty thing. this is called, i leave my or lip stalk in russian because obviously of the size and shape of it in
5:12 pm
the color are there right? reminiscent to have a 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 bus. and the destination happens. it is possible to disarm it.
5:13 pm
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 steroid, its stock, 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 a foot decades. the least chance all refinery is now relatively far from the front lines. the thunder and roar of bloss here is truly waning. but what happened here? the blind mining of dozens of square kilometers of industrial property of farms and
5:14 pm
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 present zalinski is sent calves, ambassadors to germany, along with 4 other top for an envoys. ambassador andre melnick has found himself in hot water several times. that includes insulting german chancellor, olaf schultz, and most recently praising ukrainian nazi collaborator, stephan bendara, who's blamed for the deaths of thousands of poles and jews, acting like an offended liver, which doesn't sound very statesman like jobs, not only to me, but, but to many ukrainian stepan mendera embodies someone who fights for freedom and ukrainian independence for fighters for freedom such as him. there are no written laws. central banks are around the world are becoming increasingly keen to
5:15 pm
hold on to chinese un as the reserve currency. as, according to the latest survey, by the swiss economic powerhouse you be ass, countries have been seeking to shift their currencies from the doorway in order to be perhaps less exposed to the u. s. dominance 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 the sanctions countries like china has been on the rock. in fact, according to the latest annual reserve 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
5:16 pm
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 us. 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 using this together with bricks partners, we are developing reliable alternative mechanisms before and not in the settlements . we are exploring the possibility of creating an international reserve occurring on a packet of current duties that are shooting and with the western campaign to isolate russia from swift, moscow's alternative payment system has only continued to grow and now works with
5:17 pm
more than 50 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 series 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
5:18 pm
be the case in the future for saudi arabia and the reports from earlier this year that the nation was considering one day selling oil. and china is 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 u. s. 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 there's a real split in where the united states should go even with washington dc. i've
5:19 pm
been identifying i, what i think is a sincere split between the federal reserve and commercial banking interest in the u. s. and white house policy manual 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 large courage and this kind of de, dollarization. the big question now is, when will saudi arabia break their currency peg to the us all at once? the saudis do that? i think we, we want to watch 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. muslims all over the world commemorating the 1st day of one of the biggest holidays opium, lima calendar. it's eat, i'd ha, in east jerusalem. some a $150000.00 worshippers. performed
5:20 pm
a prayer at jerusalem's alex and most compound. israel's military hut said some restrictions and travel would be loosened during the holiday. however, there are reports that police setup dozens of road blocks and conducted searches, preventing many palestinians from reaching the holy site. meanwhile, in saudi arabia, around a 1000000 pilgrims travel to their holy sight of mecca, saudi authorities are calling in the largest pilgrimage since the covey 19 pandemic up ended the event in afghanistan. hundreds also put into mosques to pray. china is dominant seen solar panel production is the threat to the west screen agenda that's at least according to a new report from the paris based international energy agency. it wants western countries to rapidly increase their share over industry. china produces more than
5:21 pm
80 percent of the world's poly silicone, which is used for solar panels, a fraction of the cost of western competitive. but the international energy agency has cautioned that the e u and u. s. shouldn't depend on those supplies, should instead boost their own manufacturing capacity, particularly if the wants to reach it 0 emission go within the next 3 decades. it's also 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. now as the well struggles where the severe energy course is due to a disruption in supply chains. the thought perhaps of china controlling
5:22 pm
a developing energy source could be raising west and fears. but whereas the e u has previously accused beijing of ignoring its green agenda. it's goal of reaching 0 emissions by 2050. could actually now rely entirely on china independent experts. andrea long says, china's role in the global move to green energy is vital a time as the walls, thicker manufacturer, and the biggest trader, and 130 countries of china is the largest bother compare with the 740 united states, the china is embedded in well the line, very chain, especially on energy, all the green energy, i mean, the solar panel, all the most of the world's manufactory, sorta, panel designers, together with special metals and minerals. most of them are in china.
5:23 pm
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 other. well, my recipe of climate change and best of interest, protecting 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 skips all this campaign or even china government is launched a new initiative to uphold the rights of media outlets to present their coverage to the public. however, he is not on that list. an amendment is designed to guard against the betray
5:24 pm
removal of articles from journalists and traffic. nice news outlets when shared on social media platforms and so called online safety bills, 6 to ensure that social media platforms can't delete news articles from those platforms without 1st notifying the publishes and keeping them a chance to appeal. however, the initiative doesn't oppose equal standards for russian media outlets with such web news, such as aussie don't comments, but like being outright banned in the you carry. now the british government's new, bellies and feasible that's at least according to a petition for more than a dozen rights organizations. they say the legislation would actually clamp down on people's rights to express their opinions on social networks. international editor of the morning, star newspaper steve sweeney says the bill would strengthen the government's power to actually decide which media that the public can access. this is of great
5:25 pm
concern, not just to turn this 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 as the british government, as the united states government, as 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
5:26 pm
a way. i think is, is absolutely unprecedented and we should, we should, we should do all that. we can to oppose it. that's your global news update. don't forget that. you can head over to r t dot com for more on all of the stories. thank you again for joining us. mm hm. ah. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offensive, bearing dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk ah, the middle east conflict in the city and conflict under give lot brent in africa
5:27 pm
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 with conflict in ukraine. and so that is more robles. how can we not hearing that listen to us, you know, be all to exist, not a problem with business and you clean with that was chosen. yeah. americans great. you. when you go to it is just such an article and i'll certainly provide you with stuff such and sure. of course it was nice talking to different
