10:02 pm
a homemade explosive device might have been responsible. investigators have yet to confirm the cause of the blas or any possible motive in case of foul play. now, some unconfirmed reports have suggested that due again, initially planned to be in that vehicle with his daughter. professor alexander there has often quoted controversy with anti western rhetoric, which over the years has been repeatedly described by western media outlets as one of the driving forces behind prudence foreign policy. in recent months, cbs had dubbed him quote, the far right fear is behind putin's plan. while the washington post called him, quote, a far right mystical writer who helped shape hooton's view of russia was showing your live pictures right now. it's just about 2 minutes past 5 o'clock in the morning here in the russian capital life pictures now from the moscow region about 2030 minutes just outside of the center will give you updates on this breaking news
10:03 pm
as the program goes into the morning hours here at rp international now in the program, several russian soldiers will hospitalized with severe chemical poisoning while fighting in the military operation in ukraine. this is all according to russia's defense ministry, which says it has evidence to implicate kia in, quote, chemical terrorism. russian soldiers were taken to a military hospital with symptoms of severe poisoning and poisonous substance, butcher lined them, talks and talk be was discovered upon examination. this evidence of chemical terrorism conducted by the kiev regime will soon be officially sent to the organisation for the prohibition of chemical weapons. the poisoning happened at last month in the upper orgy region, but it's just now coming to light a butcher. let him as a neuro toxic protein that can be made in advance laboratories. the p. c. w has previously confirmed the risk of this specific toxin being weaponized. russian soldiers were taken to a military hospital with symptoms of severe poisoning and
10:04 pm
a toxic substance. much linen talks and type b was discovered upon examination. this evidence of chemical terrorism conducted by the key regime will soon be officially sent to the organisation for the prohibition of chemical weapons. while russia says it will send all the proof, it has to the organisation for the prohibition of chemical weapons. we spoke with political analyst, daniel lazar who doubts the agency, would actually conduct an objective investigation. the problem with the o. p. c. w is that it's, it's reputation is really been shot every centered, grievously mishandled, and a legit poison poison gas attack and syria in 2018. so given that the, the, the, the offices are reputation has been so severely compromised. i don't have much faith that a little deal objectively with these latest allegations, but countries in asia, africa, south america will be,
10:05 pm
will be open minded. i think that mines, however, are thoroughly closed in north america and europe, where the press is engaged in and unprecedented propaganda campaign and support of their own governments and, and the western war effort ukraine. so therefore, and those areas, i don't expect the, the allegations to get a serious hearing or ukrainian business has been trying to profit off the deaths of russians by offering a crowd funding campaign to print personalized slogans on military ordinance being fired at moscow's forces. the sign my rocket fundraising platform was enabled clients around the world to pay for their inscriptions to be placed on miss valves, on bombs. and then they receive photos of those munitions in action. a co founder of the business says the majority of the clients off from the united states. the
10:06 pm
platform claims to provide money for ukraine's war effort, yet it's not been sanctioned by cubes. military and the platform has gone viral since it was featured in the washington post of questions raised about its promotion of hate, speech and violence. that's as the business has published, feedback from satisfied customers promoting the quote, humor of death and destruction. the tradition of resistance is strong, said, years, love reap sac. a ukrainian historian, he said, humor and obscenities have long typified ukraine's response to foreign occupation. there are so many places that you can send your money that will directly alleviate human suffering in this war that are in this so many ways you can help that. don't glorify and cheap in the constant tragedy of war. yeah, it's pretty weird to see people rejoicing as they see strangers being blown up 3000 miles away in a city. they can't pronounce radio host and political commentator, steve gail says platforms like this one, for example,
10:07 pm
promot hatred and ultimately should be condemned by all parties. involved i don't think it's funny, particularly when you have civilians who are paying to have these inscriptions put on these deadly weapons when there was a history and warfare of combatants putting inscriptions or messages on, on bombs or missiles. but you know, they're firing at each other and they are at risk to have somebody who's thousands and thousands of miles away safely as guys in their home. participating on this is, you know, quite frankly, i think sick, this is not some game. these are deadly weapons. and the ukrainian weapons are not particularly precise, though when they go awry and get some family in done, that's when they killed children. it began to seem funny to the people that were inscribing anniversary messages on these weapons. it is not funny, it is sick and fright. be it's disgusting. i think the coverage of the washington post definitely promotes into something that, you know, people may want to go online and participate in. rather than condemning it for kind
10:08 pm
of the sick humor that it, that it represents. this is serious business and, and frankly, the american government and ukrainian government should condemn it. all, meantime, intense fighting on the front lines and on bass, where russian led forces reaching major ukrainian strongholds in that region. a russian and donetta republic troops are pushing further west from the city of john, yet taken over positions which are used by ukrainian fighters to well as it was reported to launch attacks on residential areas in the region causing widespread devastation. a don bad forces are don, best forces, i should say, excuse me, they're basically attempting to circle now. the city of trauma by forces are concentrated this as a number of strategic points. how fallen under russian control on the outskirts of civil correspondent is equal to shot off and he reports from captured, ukrainian positions in this region. ukrainian troops often have to retreat very hastily and abandoning loads of ammunition has become something of
10:09 pm
a habit for them. like here, for example, you can see dozens of artillery shells. these are soft get made, but they abandon both soviet made and western supplied javelin, marseilles, british and laws. equally alike when ukrainian troops in this little village received an order to fall back. it was already too late. russian troops had critically closed in making the escape a herculean task key of forces ran light on their feet. so special units they load, whatever they can find into trucks like this one, food is taken to a special place. were all these shells and will disarmament are examined and those that are deemed safe youth,
10:10 pm
they are being sent to the front them that are not well there safely destroyed every other. st junction here has been excavated and turned into miniature strongholds inside civilian houses. foxholes providing quick shelter from the shelling we really couldn't do. ukrainian troops were living in the houses kitchen . they dug out a small shelter there so they could hide in case of shelling and survive even if the home were destroyed. there are trenches across the whole town. they defended their positions very well. they were preparing for many years. they kicked the locals out of their homes, or made them sit in the basements and used them as shields. as we've been covering this war in the gone back, we've seen countless civilian households, which have been repurposed by the ukraine and military to serve as defense fortifications. this one is no exception. the owners were evicted by the ukrainian troops. and now, well, whoever used to live here this, we have no place to return to pakistan's former prime
10:11 pm
minister m ron con, has called for his supporters to take to the streets in protest against the alleged torture of a senior member of his political party. that of shop, as he said, the abuse was used to instill fear and any one backing his party, the p t i those who are allowed to live would tell tales of gang his con, retaliating. this resulted in many cities surrendering to model hordes without a fight. this is what the government is doing by torturing sure, vog gill. they want to tell us that if they can break him physically and mentally, then they can do it to anyone in pakistan. i am inviting everyone to join us and raised their voice in protest. chavez gail was detained last week for allegedly making controversial remarks about the countries ami. a gill has been charged with sedition and the ex prime minister claim as he was also tortured in police custody . iran con has about another round of 3 protests against the coalition government.
10:12 pm
it's also appeal to supporters to speak out against restrictions imposed on pakistani news channel. i read news saying it is been pressured into not broadcasting p t i party event or iran con, was ousted from power in april, following a vote of no confidence by pakistan's parliament is accused us of orchestrating his removal. and may iran, con osha support us to hit the streets and a wave of protest erupt it. and the rest of the shop, as gil now strengthens to exacerbate the unrest already in the south asian country . well, our food traded for sex, young women raped children abandoned. a new report implicates united nations peacekeepers in years of abuse and a democratic republic of the congo. a larger targeting civilians living in destitute conditions. me. i lost my daughter who died while she was pregnant,
10:13 pm
and one soldier met her pregnancy and i have no place to claim my rights mask the government to expound this un mission from our country. but in my home there is a wound. and if i saw his peacekeepers, i would stone them. my daughter went to them to ask for a job, finding a job is difficult. so she started cooking for them as a few days she was raised, my daughter is desperate. she now has psychological problems. we hope that one day this mission will leave a country and we are not going to be discouraged. we will continue to ask for the departure of the un mission because we know that it has no business here since they arrived and they say they have not produced anything. they just re power sisters. now mothers, they must leave. the report is based on 2500 interviews, many with girls and women who claim to have been raped by united nations peacekeepers with children conceived as a result of the corresponding couple of title. it brings us details shocking levels
10:14 pm
of poverty displacement, brutal attacks by groups and fighting the democratic republic of congo is one of the world's poorest and most want on countries in the world. however, twin twin already bleeding and a recent report claims the united nations piece campus, which have been in the african country for 20 years. i've raised the young women traded food for sex, father and abandoned thousands of children in the b c. allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse among un peacekeeping missions and nothing you had no systematic research on paternity linked to a new school. that's the un mission in the d. c. has apparently been carried out until now. researchers interviewed one girl who alleges she was traffic by half emily, and impregnated by soldiers when she was only 10 years old. she's now 16, and this is her recollection of what happened and was very young,
10:15 pm
just 10 years old. i realize later on that i was sold out in my aunt, the man with brain beer in the pop to share with me. the research also says the youngest girl that being interviewed, that was impregnated by un peacekeepers was just 10 years old. and then one in every 2 mothers, well under the age of 18 when being conceived according to the report, many children were left abandoned and his father, my father left my mother while she was pregnant. she gave birth after he was already gone. people disturb and hurt me so much. they say they will chase me because i'm a foreigner. i'm suffering they, when they the ways of allegations contains over 400 reports of incidence of p. keep a father, babies says 2007. the report is based on almost 3000 interviews with members of the con, release community. and emily, thank you,
10:16 pm
anne personnel from 12 countries. although the report points out the length of prosecution for these offences by peacekeepers due to their immunity, the you and says that is strongly condemns the behavior of those who violate and undermine the values of the organization may abusing and exploiting those who are looking to the you and for protection, but the number of the victims of this horrendous abuse can be had to come there. a potentially thousands of children left behind by peacekeepers in a democratic republic of congo. parts of the problem is that some of those deployed seemed to be treated as missions as an opportunity for sucks, tourism and sexual crimes that are unlikely to commit in their home countries. this all came to light after a number of violent protests against un peacekeeping forces in the east india c. i'm it calls for the you went to withdraw from the area 15 people had been killed in until you and protest in the last week in a tags that you and chief,
10:17 pm
antonio book harris said could constitute a wall crime. the government has been trying to get the mission to leave, says 2010 and the u. n. has been in the process of drawing down the operations since 2020 protest as meanwhile say the one you went to leave because it failed to protect civilians. there is a kind of destruction with their un peacekeepers who are enjoying life. they are partying almost her every day going to bars, meeting with prostitutes and dust the issue here in d r. c. so that's why as several peacekeepers have forgotten, they are real mission is to promote peace, not to have more people and abandon them in d r c. that's not one of their mission that can and if the u. n can be very strict . and then or so this simply it's troops because you know,
10:18 pm
without discipline disc, i'm not end good to have you with us for this program on our t. so weston sanctions against russia, having unintended consequences. the european economy faces a bleak future on the wake of sanctioning russian energy. and now been slovakia. a big alu minion factory is shutting down due to surging electricity prices are to contribute to rachel marston now has more on the impact of boomerang sanctions. that of slamming the you pulling right recall a few weeks ago that it was german industry representatives who were bracing for the impact of the european union's own anti russian sanctions. but now other countries within the block are facing similar threats to their industrial production. as a result of brussels, self imposed sanctions. now you nations are all in the same boat and that boat is pretty much a dinky that's taking on more water by the day while they're focused on shaking their fists
10:19 pm
a russian president vladimir putin. so tangible results are surely right around the corner, right? it's always darkest before dawn and all that. or maybe that's just the lights shutting off because europeans can't pay the bills. so now it's a norwegian own slovakian aluminum plant, the supplies all of europe that set to stop production by the end of september, jeopardizing $300.00 full time jobs. so how important is this operation? the smelter, exactly laval, co, aluminum smelter is a key supplier, not only for slovak companies, but also for other european ones by stopping production. europe will be forced to import aluminum from countries like china or russia. and now even the head of germany's parliamentary energy committee is referring to economic suicide. energy sanctions against russia have turned out to be a serious mistake. a major recession in germany is inevitable. in the energy sector, the economic downturn is primarily due to the sanctions, as well as statements that russian energy supplies will be cut off regardless of
10:20 pm
existing agreements or contracts. jeopardizing the energy supply of europe's largest economy is hara kiri. it hurts citizens and the industry and does nothing to help ukraine. i remember what you commission president ursula vander lion said back in may, that quote, putin must pay a price, a high price. but with each passing day, new evidence suggests that the ones paying the very highest price as a result of the use best efforts. well, they're europeans. well, europe's not alone amid this historic energy crisis. all the way to kenya now was charcoal has become the main energy source for cooking due to skyrocketing das prizes, putting the environmentally safe flame out of economic ridge. i. we talked to several locals about what forced them to resort to using the basic fuel. well, my, to the neighborhood that i decided to start sell charcoal to locals in my region,
10:21 pm
who could no longer afford gas because of its high price motor. the majority in the rural areas depend on charcoal because it is the only energy source they afford to heat food. can i sell it at an affordable price? yeah. okie doke. all that for me to melita i am the only person authorized to sell charcoal in this area. media. i have documents, you can see them here and i entered into this business to help hum and citizens who are struggling to get money for gassy us. some don't even have money to buy food and i am humbly requesting the government allow us to continue with charcoal simply because they have not lowered the price of gasoline. if we don't sell charcoal and cannot afford gas, what do we do then? sika. when do i not? i started using charcoal when gas prices went up earlier this year. i am not quite sure what has been happening in our country, but affording to buy even cooking flour has been an issue, let alone cook and gas, but i don't have any other option other than using charcoal. this is the only way i can manage my businesses and also satisfy my family's needs. the energy crisis has
10:22 pm
now forced the governments issue permits to so charcoal a tre, there was previously band. and that's upsetting environmentalists who were concerned over the impact of the growing chalk, old industry as having on local ecosystems or calling on the government to address the issue basically the cost of pulling kenya. so if i increase over time and most of the community around cannot cope with the increasing charges or increasing cost of electricity are the same time the course of firms. so most of them are looking for cheap options to make them run small grid and also household energy requirements and needs when the will price increases, then $11.00 to the people, both at small level or the industrial level are highly posted. and it means that there will life is disruptive to, to exit. and this is something that we have seen over time as environmental
10:23 pm
specialist is reverting therefore that us there been before to ensure but the environment is protected. and also the component of having our trees planted unprotected to grow. we spoke with alex mer guy a former of the youth organization, actually the founder of the youth organization that have a future team. now, he says the kenyan government should make this natural gas available to everyone, also trying to preserve the country's own natural resources. the major issue, the major problem that is causing that by this to to to slot is the landing pages. because it can now be improper l. p g. also we do not income of the call controlled the prizes until the 9th. so we see there is a months due to especially due to the 19 that they lpg praise. the gus
10:24 pm
plays on the landing cost has gone up incredibly, maybe up to around 30 to 40 pass entire when you look at the policies in place at the moment you can now we are expecting an improvement. also, when you look back to los listen ships with our largest tape, especially russia, u. s. a u k, china. we have to come up with policies on how we can salvage off off, or if may be tough exemptions on the lpga, the gas for that's so that can, can be able to use gas, which is a more data and fuel energy level. i'm going to use the call on another part of our special coverage of the care of it. us withdrawal from ghana on one year on washington says it is now scrapping plans to unfreeze $7000000000.00 of ask our state assets. and actually, because the money could be used to finance terrorism, that's how the water and central asian country devastated by 2 decades of
10:25 pm
u. s. military occupation now, seated on the brink of famine. ah, by sorry, off on a sunday after the u. s. froze our money, people moved under the poverty line, not going to banks have given us, they have no solution. the americans are dishonest. first, they left the country in chaos and then they froze our money up. they did this intentionally to push us into serious trouble and then take advantage from that in the future of europe. in my opinion, the us should not miss st. afghans. why the poll people of afghanistan for about 20 years have lived with conflicts hauled ship and suffered poverty. mm. let him also see what else we have demanded at washington,
10:26 pm
implement the agreements reaching doha. we have not violated any of the points in the agreement so far, but we ask others to fulfill darrell obligations as well. ah ah, leonard, who knows us sanctions have destroyed afghans. homes made children suffer from famine and literally took the clothes from their backs. only a rare person here can say that they can make clothes for their children and not mentioned the high prices of flower, oil, sugar, and food. if the above had taught him higher, if we talk about the sanctions, america imposes on our poor and innocent people. they just want to kill people. ah
10:27 pm
mm ah, the lead of minima. we want to be seen as ordinary people were not wizards, where people like them all these countries have reached their present level in 30 or 50 years. and they want us to achieve it in one year, even though the condition of the country in which we got it is not good. ah so even some relatives of 911 victims of cold on u. s. president joe biden, to return the money to the afghan people as a group of victims. families that now sent an open letter to the white house,
10:28 pm
insisting those funds belong to afghanistan. 95 percent of afghans are impoverished and nearly $9000000.00 are risk of starvation. this money is there's not ours. simply put this money belongs to the afghan people, not 911 family members. and they need it more. i am totally opposed to any of that money from the afghan central bank being used for anything other than restoring the liquidity of the country, which is in dire economic and humanitarian crisis. i don't feel that i am entitled to that money. that is the money of the afghan people. i don't think the u. s. should use this once at all. we are the richest country in the world. victims of 911, for the most part, are not suffering economically. there had been 8 packages that
10:29 pm
most people have received. i. i feel sad also because i don't think that all of the 911 victims families realize the relative privilege that we have in the united states. and i don't think any of them would wish for others to suffer because of their actions by withholding these funds and not finding a way through diplomacy. to restore them. we are punishing the very country and the very people who we have been been bombing and attacking for 20 years. it's not just the conditions in afghanistan are horrific. 90 percent of the people don't have enough to eat. people have been selling off whatever they can to buy food. we feel that it's inappropriate,
10:30 pm
highly inappropriate that. and it should go to us with them's families. the 1st day when we learned that our son had died, tax my husband, my family, and i were oppose to military retaliation by our government against afghanistan because we feared. and unfortunately, our fears were borne out that there would be many innocent civilian victims over there. just as our son and over 3000 others have been a story and much more in detail on our website. dorothy dot com do stay tuned, will bring you more of on special coverage of the controversial legacy of the us of the patient. i've done it on throughout the month, your nazi international no nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all the history.
