3:02 pm
a damaging several buildings including the dumbass palace hotel, where journalists were based, an assistant to an artie camera man was injured during the shelling and believe to have suffered concussion. the strikes happened just before a commemoration service and a local theatre for a slain female commander. all those present were evacuated to shelters. canadian journalist even bartlett, who narrowly escaped being hit by a mis i'll spoke to the program earlier. the 1st blast occurred around 10 20 am in a series of blast within a few minutes. so when things calm down, turn on, i started going outside to document the damage. there was unfortunately one dead woman just outside the hotel. i was actually in the hotel when it started, i was working and when after the 1st 3 very strong explosions, i went to the hotel lobby and at the time that the assistant to the camera man was entered, that was the 5th blast,
3:03 pm
a very powerful blast right next to the hotel. i had just stepped back from the, from the lobby. so thankfully, i'm sorry that he was injured, but yeah that's, that's where i was at the time. and about an hour prior, i had been working in the room that took the most damage out because this hotel is a journalist, go to it because it's a central location and that has powerful why fi and those her tools that we need. so i'm pretty sure that ukraine knows that this is a hotel, that journalist i stay and i don't think that this was accidental. it's now calm, but people over, of course, on edge knowing that if you crane it struck the center already a few times. not could happen at any moment. a warning again, you may find the following image is upsetting. video has a paid on social networks showing more victims of the shelling and don't yeske. a grandmother and her grand daughter were found dead in a park. they were later discovered by the girls grandfather, the woman's husband,
3:04 pm
who confirmed with much anguish that they were his loved ones. sonya, i have no documents to prove. we are relatives, but this is my granddaughter and here lies my wife. the projectile flew here, but a young buena, the shell struck the theatre in the don based palace hotel. 2 civilians and one member of the military were killed. the blast tore the civilians of heart and a char just flew past me. i feel incredibly motion way. i hope no one ever experiences anything like that. you have to publish that. i came out from a shop after the blast, which forced every one to hide in a basement. we have no idea what's next, whether there will be further attacks. while our correspondent woman calls her of his in don yes as well and has more now on more cells with hate. and today's attack, once again, multiple districts have been shown in the city of dun ask, including the very center of the city, of course. so a dumbass palace hotel where many journalists, including foreigners, are a staying and as well as a drama theater, which is located just about a 100 meters away from where we are. now,
3:05 pm
this is not the 1st time that said the nest has been shown. this has been happening over the last 8 years continuously. of course sir shelling had intensified over the last few months since the start of the special military operation. now local officials believed that though the reason for 2 days shelling was at the funeral. all for colonel oligarch got euro, who was killed on her return from a mission in girl of god. of course. so she's been given the honor of the hero of the next people's republic, as well as an honor of the hero of russia, which was assigned by prison vladimir putin and local officials believe. and that this is exactly why ukraine decided to show the center of the city to disrupt her funeral. let's take a listen caucuses. we should probably have expected that this would happen, that such a service would not have been allowed to take place so easily. i think the ukrainians
3:06 pm
targeted the theater, how ukrainian officials have issued their own statement saying that they are not to blame for the deaths of civilians in the center of don't ask and that their army is not to blame for. they shelling of the center of the city as in that they never, ever target civilians or civilian infrastructure. however, the reality on the ground is very different. we've been working here for the last 8 years and hundreds, literally hundreds of people have been killed in the last 4 months alone as a result of ukrainian artillery shilling. and there are plenty of food. there's plenty of proof and expertise on of that as well. now we're waiting to find out what exactly the nest was shelled with. a local officials are saying that reportedly ukraine used high caliber 155 millimeter natal made rockets. ah, and we did find a few of fragments of the shell that landed in the boss palace hotel. we've already
3:07 pm
taken the pictures and footage of that senate specialists, and we will find out exactly what that rocket was. independent journalist luc revamp. believe such cases, why civilian infrastructure is targeted? a usually ignored by western media as outlets simply copy and paste information directly from chaos. the santa kia army over the last years. yes, shell bomb don't. yes. repeatedly, while it is not a military target, just to kill civilians is, is really off. any is martin depress here in west? these things are not mentioned. you know, it's one thing to have collateral damages. there are collateral damages, unfortunately, in every conflict. but in this instance, it's not the case. it is bombing a city with, you know,
3:08 pm
a population which has nothing to do with the armies on the field. and so it is really difficult in the sense that they should never bomb the city of don't yet. and here in west we, we simply people don't know, they think it's a village don't yet, they don't know. it's the same size as brussels rankel from. so it's on, it's really terrible that the media in the west. just copy paste what comes from here. and i wonder if this will be mentioned in the news to light level human rights organization. amnesty international has stated ukrainian for his purposely use schools that hospitals and other civilian objects is basis for their trips rush and foreign ministry spokeswoman my hear. maria, however, do responded by saying russia has been reporting on key of using civilians as human shields for some time. we have documented a pattern of ukrainian forces put in civilians. a trace can violate the loss of war when they operate in populated areas. at $22.00,
3:09 pm
out of $29.00 schools visited amnesty researches of holland soldiers using the passes or found evidence of currents or prior military activity includes in the past. and so the military for teaks, discarded munitions, army ration packets and military vehicles. we talk about this all the time, calling the actions of the armed forces of ukraine, the tactics of using the civilian population as a human shield. and the theater ukraine has been endangering exciting civilians by putting not only troops, but also weapon systems in residential areas. branding to move a violation of humanitarian law, demanding he stop using civilians and the conflict in to evacuate them from all baffled grounds. while moscow was blamed by the organization for causing indirect casualties in public areas, by using highly destructive weapons to hit, the ukraine's military journalist and all the lucre bay, again is off the view ukrainian authorities endanger the civilians for payoff
3:10 pm
purposes. i. mr. international which is respected everywhere, white's in the west. that is important because so it's usually very much less leaning and, and perceived this as quite neutral. and in this are really on mentioning things that are totally unacceptable. so for the governments, it will be difficult in germany as well as everywhere. france, italy, in other places because there will be questions they think simply that the population that this event population is a protection for them. that's all they just high within the population. in the cities and villages just to, to avoid the shelling of the russian artillery. that's so really not the way to, to wrong to, to behave in a conflict for an army, but of course then they can produce that press release is saying that the rush army aims for us and killing civilians by shelling schools and hospitals and showing
3:11 pm
photos of hospitals, forgetting that it is their troops, your gray and troops that were in the building and were show by the russian army. the chinese army is currently involved in large scale military exercises in the taiwan strait. jones, being conducted in thick zones around the island, 3 of which overlap plans that time pay claims are part of its territorial waters. the chinese defense ministry confirm the use of ballistic missiles type a day. the response is activated. this defense systems claiming 11 of those may sound lines, been watered around the island. today. the box drops. all that's us. how speak and nancy pelosi is recent visit to taiwan police. he met high ranking time when he's officials, including the deputy speaker, along with taiwan president. all of that came despite a strong backlash from beijing and a warning to washington that is actions in the region will have consequences. the u
3:12 pm
. s. in turn said it's still firmly committed to its core one china principle, and there's no reason for waging to overreact. when we discuss the developments with a journalist from china working just across the taiwan straits in fiji on province, he believes pelosi trip to taiwan was a deliberate provocation. so military knows it earlier. i said the purpose is to a lot of the interference by external forces and the separate your schemes for taiwan, independence. the chinese emitted to announce the exact locations about 38 hours ahead of the exercises. and the warns are very so as an aircraft. now to answer these areas for safety reasons that it follows an international practice tab on question the most important and a sensitive issue of china us relations. what a nancy pelosi has done is not about i'm holding democracy, but a provocation and infringement. i'm trying to solve and see. and territory integrity. her visit was how one is
3:13 pm
a bridge of american political commitment. so 5 assurances for china flows is a visit, a sense of wrong signal to the separatist of forces or taiwan independence and escalate tensions across. that's how a street is a very dangerous and many people here pointed out that close it's provocation is all about and making personal political gains is a sheer political fuss. there are also people saying, well, lucy, is the one staging this act that china yes, relationship and appears as the ability in the region that are taking the tone. in general, the visit arouses a strong indignation among the chinese people. and people here optimistic about a complete radio and if occasion of china after her meeting this week with the time when he is president, nancy pelosi made some muddled up remarks. she cited benjamin franklin, but confused. a famous quote on the unity of liberty and safety. benjamin franklin presidency said freedom and democracy,
3:14 pm
freedom and democracy monthly. security here. if we don't have, we can have it either. if we don't have both, while her trip came with words of hope, freedom, security, and unity. the 3rd in line to the u. s. presidency was criticized by many for making the contentious stop on the island territory, which is driven and even bigger wedge in relations between china and washington. political science, there is ted roles saves the time. one issue is not one, many americans are thinking about at all. this is an inherently ridiculous journey . it seems to be an attempt on the part of the democratic party preceding the november 2022 mid term elections to look tough on foreign policy. something that they sort of never do, even though really they are these days more aggressive than their republican counterparts. and i'm disappointed you know, nancy pelosi used to be one of america's sharpest and brightest politicians. but look, we all get old and we all get pastor expiration date. i think it's fair to say that
3:15 pm
the how speaker appears to be moving in that direction. and of course, it's not even a friday and flip that she mangled benjamin franklin. you know, i think she's become such a china hawk such a militarist over the years in her position and her alliance with the military industrial complex that she's not even able to even remember that there is a significant part of american political culture that is highly skeptical of militarism and adventure as i'm overseas. i mean these days, america's or americans are really focused on inflation, inflation and inflation. they're really worried about the economy. and to a secondary level, they're worried about the federal reserve bank, perhaps going too far and driving the economy back into addition to a recession as they have done in similar circumstances in the past. i think this is not going to move the needle very much. i don't think anyone cares among american
3:16 pm
voters about taiwan and china i should say, is, is concerned over the tensions in the disputed territory of new go. no, kara back and it's cool for a diplomatic solution to the crisis. the foreign ministry says it's in close contact with both of the opposing sides, armenia, and as a by jim, i wish peacekeepers are also working on the ground in attempts to stabilize the situation. as of now, there are no active battles going on on the general secretary of the collective security treaty organization, and the lines of post soviet states as called on both sides to further refrain from violence. he's off, he's maria phenomena with more pensions are high in the disputed territory of not gotten cut off 20 months after the military conflict. there had ended up with the sci fi agreement between media and as it by john mediated with the help of russia on wednesday. as it by, johnny troops launched an air strike heating and armenian military unit, claiming it was a response to the armenian armed forces,
3:17 pm
illegal activity in the area, and now, but who is saying it's taking control over the strategic hides and key territories in the cut off region at the same time or media is blaming as it by john for violating the cease fire agreement. one as it by john in to armenian soldiers have been confirmed dead. we've a 14 more armenians reported wounded. there was already an international reaction to what's happening in the board and the cut over with you and washington, both calling to end the fighting. the gordon to cut a bar has announced a partial mobilization. and he's now saying that is trying to stabilize the situation in that region. with the help of the russian peacekeeping forces, patient in the area. this conflict is more than 3 decades old. and i've gotten, it could have been broke away from. was it by john with the help of armenia after the collapse of the soviet union in the early 99. he's in 2020 as it by john and of
3:18 pm
mania 40 war and but who was able to win bag some of the territories. and the sides then agreed to end the fire. but apparently, the region still remains a source of trouble only an hour before memorial event was to get on the way to mark the 2nd anniversary of the blast that devastated the port of bay were in lebanon. a huge section of the surviving grains follows that collapsed, sending dust, smoke, and sun into the air. no injuries have been reported. the blas there rocked lebanon's capital on august, the 4th 2020 left more than 200 people dead. and more than $6000.00 injured as well as causing billions of dollars worth of damage as follows. held special significance for many bay right favorite residence, having absorbed much of the shock wave of the explosion, and thus shielding the city from even more damage. we heard reflections on the tragic event from a local lawyer. we had
3:19 pm
a terrible explosion. it was black and black. all over the city. many people who have heeded at the 1st time. everyone thought that there is an explosion. neither he's house, people running, asking where did it happen? what happened? how is the restoration going and why are some companies not being fully restored? defense? you see somebody being, what happens that owners are in the road. some did not do it because it's a commercial place and it's got a lot of money. some houses also here to know all the lease agreement a they rented for a very small amount and the landlord had, why would we pay for installation that's?
3:20 pm
that's why we spoke to the former austrian foreign minister who's now living in lebanon. she shared with us what the country's been going through. ah, the lebanese rushes, the streets and square angle is desperate about this dysfunctional government. because like the last few years, it was all about corruption in 2019 people went to the streets to say, hello, we are fed up, was this corruption. and the explosion of harvey yoletta was very tragic. symbol wasn't a symbol. hundreds of people got fields, but all did not seek for this function. then administration we have seen in lebanon to friends, huge political criminal cases. if you want to call them, it was also like the f as a nation off on
3:21 pm
a prime. and is the highly the even established and international cooperating? my humble opinion was not. so we did the right way to thing to do it. only cost money. nothing ever moved a little both. what a nice need is the trust in a credible as an expression, and it's not there, but it's nothing specific for them. i always call lebanon, and i like the laboratory, all international affairs, and many other levels. because what's the started here? a few of as a short period later we can see happen of all about the infrastructure. no electricity wants to supply very difficult. people organized the own in high since it is very, very sorry for the people who pay through the live was the house who lost the houses and it's, it just came at the moment, fund lebanese anyway,
3:22 pm
suffocated by economic circumstances. so my deep respect was the people who somehow come russia's defense ministry claimed is found new evidence of us involvement in biological activities that may have led to a wider outbreak of the covey pandemic. and currently, the monkey pox virus, new procedure should we trace likely a trends. passages that fall into the zone of interest of the pentagon subsequently become a president pandemic. while the beneficiaries are american pharmaceutical companies and their patrons believe there are some of the united states democratic party, racial blevins early a filled up in on the latest m o. d findings. russia's defense ministry is referencing a series of documents which they release. and they said that they obtain these documents as part of the ongoing investigation in the u. s. funded by a labs in ukraine. now, one of the major allegations from these documents is that the u. s. has been
3:23 pm
actively funding corona, virus research since at least 2009, using funding from the u. s. agency for international development. now when it comes to one of the main programs that was mentioned there, they talked about the predict program. notably one of the founders of that is met by 0, one of the u. s. companies that has been found to be directly involved in ukrainian bio labs. so a lot of this does like it's coming full circle when it comes to these allegations that are being made from these documents. but they also said it wasn't just research. they said that there were drills that were being carried out, both in ukraine and even in the united states. specifically, johns hopkins university, where they looked at a response to a corona virus outbreak and also looked at transmission from bats to human. and how that would play out. now, all of this comes is russia's defense ministry says that it also has findings related to cranium. soldiers who have retreated and they found that in their bloodstream,
3:24 pm
there were levels of opioids and even methamphetamines raising questions about whether ukraine was actively drugging its soldiers in order to alter their mental state. similar to the ways in which nazi germany has been accused of dragging its soldiers back during world war 2. so a lot of major allegations made here. now we notably did reach out to us a i d for comment, but they have yet to respond. us basketball player brittney griner has been sentenced to 9 years in prison, of being found guilty by a russian quarter. the possession on smuggling of drugs has also been fined $16000.00 because one year old was arrested moscow share to the airport around 6 months ago. klein was accused of trying to smuggle cannabis oil in her luggage. surely a pleaded guilty to the charge proclaim today the vague cartridges ended up in her baggage. unintentionally. president joe biden had condemned her rest and arrest and
