11:01 pm
and i have no place to claim my rights that they arrive in the deal to see the not produce anything. they just rape our sisters, mothers. they must leave with a group of 911 victims families condemned jo biden's plan to give them confiscated afghan state assets. they say the war torn country needs the money to rebuild itself upon very country, very people who we have been bombing and attacking for 20 years. with why we are running down the top stories of the week and this ours main headlines here. one ology international good to happy with us because our top story is breaking news here on this channel. a car bombing in moscow was killed the daughter of influential russian and political commentator. alexander doogan,
11:02 pm
often described in the west as a schafer. of the kremlin ideology. as we understand, close friends have confirmed daria duke and his death as well. well, because god is now joining us here in the studio on this break and use this morning . just for the meantime. peter, bring us up to speed exactly what you know so far. well say breaking news rory, very sketchy information. the moment. ringback we know so far is that 20 kilometers west of moscow. about half 9, yesterday, saturday nights, an explosion ripped apart and su v, throwing it from one side of the road to the other. now is suspected that this explosion was caused by an improvised explosive device that is yet to be confirmed by authorities. nobody services said recovered. one female body from the vehicle, which unfortunate was so badly burned, that it was impossible to identify that female at the time. however, multiple telegram sources and russian media reports that it was the drive of the
11:03 pm
vehicle was 30 rolled. daria, do you know now she is the daughter of philosopher alexander duke. and he's known for his political, an ideological works, which often could say, as you mentioned before, and see western rhetoric now he himself was report to be at the scene, visibly distress, understandably by that incident. again, authorities haven't confirmed the exact cause of the explosion, but do get himself. he was given a lecture on that tradition and history that the family festival just outside of moscow. i report suggest that he was originally intending to leave this event with his daughter, who was the event as a guest in the same vehicle before the last minute decided to take a separate car. but given the divisive nature of due again, on the fact that he was reported to leave the events in the same car as his daughter, i'm sure authorities will be investigating whether this attack was targeted. not certainly something that a close friend of doogan seems,
11:04 pm
suspect. not what i'm saying smarter. i don't consider any circumstances other than an assassination because of her political beliefs. there were various occasions when her enemies express discontent with their positions. more often this was done anonymously. i wanted to ask you, peter, while i've got you here in the studio here, because of course, the 1st question that springs to mind is, why would this family potentially be targeted here? and then if you, if you learn a bit more about it, the ukranian black listing site, the middle taught and switch translates as peace keeper. previously did list, alexander, duke and, and his daughter, daria as enemies of key of peter to teach. i mean, do you think it any way this compliment could in any shape away be connected with the ukraine conflict again, or of course you haven't confirmed the cause. this wasn't already particular motive behind this. as you mentioned, alexander, duke and, and his daughter daria are on this new sport. it's websites. now this could be connected when back in 2014. alexander duke was actually start from his job,
11:05 pm
moscow state university. and that was as a result of a petition that was signed by thousands of people. and this is in relation to his comments on an incident where some prohibition activists were burned to death in a building in odessa back in may 2014. now he's reports to said, kill, kill, kill those responsible, which many in the media interpreted as a call to kill ukrainian people. and then he found himself on this mid for this website. so i'm sure that will be an active leads. the authorities will be investigating as a possible motive behind this instance, i'll say speak to scott and the very latest on this breaking news story out of this car bombing, just west of the center of moscow, about 2025 minutes out of the center of the russian capital, peter appreciate it, will speak to you soon. ah, well, several that russian soldiers were hospitalized with severe chemical poisoning while fighting in the military operation in ukraine. this is according to russia's defense ministry, which says it has evidence to implicate key of in, quote,
11:06 pm
chemical terrorism. russian soldiers were taken to a military hospital with symptoms of severe poisoning and a poisonous substance, butcher lined them, tucks 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 last month and as opposed to region, but it's not only just now coming to light. a butcher lent him as a new or a toxic protein that can be made in advance laboratories. the p. c. w has previously confound the risk of such a toxin being weaponized. russian soldiers were taken to a military hospital with symptoms of severe poisoning and 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. or meantime, russia says it will send all the proof. it has to the organization of the
11:07 pm
prohibition of chemical weapons. but we spoke with political analyst daniel lazar, and he actually doubts the agency will give a well an objective investigation. the problem with the o p c w is that its, its reputation is really been shot ever since it grievously mishandled and a legit poison poison gas attack and syria in 2018. so given that the, the, the, the offices reputation has been so severely compromised. i don't have much faith that a little deal objectively with these latest allegations. but the countries in asia, africa, south america will be, will be open minded. i think that minds, however, are thoroughly closed in north america and europe, where the press is engaged in and an unprecedented propaganda campaign in support of their own governments and,
11:08 pm
and the western war effort. ukraine. so therefore, and those areas, i don't expect the, the allegations to get a serious hearing on local officials in southeast and ukraine have reported that key abs forces shelled russian held territory at those upper grocery power plot on saturday evening. the attacks of certainly raised concerns about a looming nuclear disaster, and they were conducted using nato heavy artillery. as we understand at least for enormous shells, hitting the affinity of the facility. ukrainian troops of a portly attack, the nuclear plaza at least 5 times this week. and a dangerous effort to reclaim the facility seized by russian forces in the initial week of moscow's military operation of kias forces, or even been implicated in firing at a radioactive waste container escalated, concerns about possible contamination and several civilians have been reportedly
11:09 pm
killed in the shelling in nearby residential areas, russia has called for an independent set of monitors from the international atomic energy agency to conduct an investigation to assess the risks of the ukrainian attacks. the un secretary general antonio cortez said during a recent visit to ukraine, that his organization would facilitate such a visit. but he stipulated it would only be if the inspectors would enter from the ukrainian side of the front lines. and if old soldiers and military equipment will be removed from around the facility, we heard from a former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, who starts the u. n. is engaged in a game of blackmail. so this is a coordinated policy. ok. and that makes it even more frightening, because this isn't just the case of ukrainian government going out of control. this is the case of the international community going out of control. the goal and objective here is to accomplish through nuclear blackmail that which ukrainian army
11:10 pm
is unable to accomplish on its own. that is to remove russia from the separation nuclear power plant. it's a very dangerous situation and it's one that is going to be very difficult to your to conclude if as it appears the west is, you know, work working collaboration with kiya as opposed to sitting back in observing irresponsible behavior on the part of chip. let's update you on the intense fighting on the front lines and on bass, where russian lead forces are reaching major ukrainian strongholds in the region. a russian and don't ask republic. troops of pushing further west from the city of don yeske taking over positions which earlier were used by ukrainian fighters to launch attacks on a residential areas in that region. i don't boss forces are attempting to encircle the city of cham off square. key halves forces are concentrated this as a number of strategic points, so fallen under russian control on the outskirts of sep f. a correspondent is equal
11:11 pm
to dental and he report from the frontline, one of the main rules of don bass that i've written in blood to is follow the roads and do not go with straight. we have broken this rule today, but only because we're in the good can in the good hands of the sap as of russia's national guard. and essentially they have found only today, 7 anti tank minds that will laying around the roads in the fields. everything is rigged here. now they're carrying them away into this abandon ukrainian fortification, which very soon will be no more because all 7 of them will be detonated inside single day goes by without new deadly fines. before following through with the control detonation, all roads are cordoned off within a quarter of a kilometer radius.
11:12 pm
this is what a detonation of about a 100 kilograms of t and t looks like. every undiscovered explosive device has a potential death sentence to careless civilians. many of whom are farmers and no matter how many mines are found each day yields new, harvest, godly, particular aspect, every crossroads here, every road junction, where a lot of transport travels through is heavily mine, especially road sites. sometimes there are mine fields and the roads through them are completely blocked by mines. so you may pay a very high price for a lack of attention. i'm again, donna reporting from the don boss, odd sea food trade it for sex. young women raped children abandoned. a new report implicates united nations peacekeepers and years of abuse. the democratic republic of the congo largely targeting civilians living
11:13 pm
in destitution me. i lost my daughter who died all she was pregnant, and one soldier matter pregnant and i have no place to claim my rights. the government to expound this un mission from the contract. but in my house there is a wound. nissan. as peacekeepers, don't them. my daughter went to them to ask for a job. i'm finding a job was difficult, so she started cooking for them and all after a few days later she was re, my daughter is desperate. she now has a college problem 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 in the d. c. they have not produced anything. they just rape our sisters. now mothers, they must. the report is based on 2500 interviews, many with girls and women who claim to have been raped by the united nations
11:14 pm
peacekeepers with children conceived as a result of the correspondent and cut rabble of capital. that brings us details on the story. shocking levels 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, transferred to an already bleeding wound. a recent report claims the united nations peacekeepers, which have been in the african country for 20 years, have raved the young women, traded food for sex, father, and abandoned thousands of children into the sea. 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,
11:15 pm
and this is her recollection of what happened and was very young. just 10 years old . i realized later on that i was sold out in my aunt. the men were buying beer in the pop to share with me. the research also says the youngest girl that the 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 they conceived according to the report, many children were left abandoned and have fatherless. 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 reported incidents of peace. keep up. the babies says 2007. the report is based on almost $3000.00 interviews
11:16 pm
with members of the congress, each community, an employee. thank you, 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 it strongly condemns the behavior of those who violate and undermine the values of the organization. by 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 count the ra, potentially thousands of children left behind by peacekeepers in a democratic republic of congo. popped up the problem is that some of those deployed seem to be treated as missions as an opportunity for sex, 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.
11:17 pm
i'm. it calls for the u. n. to withdraw from the area 15 people have been killed in until you and protest in the last week in a tank that you and chief antonio gutierrez, said could constitute a walk around. the government has been trying to get the mission to leave since 2010 and the u. n. has been in the process of drawing down the operations since 2020 protested. meanwhile, saving one the u. n. 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 year 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
11:18 pm
and then also does to clean its tubes because, you know, without discipline, this cannot end pakistan's, former prime minister iran con, that's 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 bill. he said the abuse was used to instill, fare and any one backing his party that of the p t. i find those who are allowed to live would tell tales of gang is con brutality. this resulted in many cities surrendering to model hordes without a fight. this is what the government is doing by torturing shavani 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
11:19 pm
making controversial remarks about the countries army gill has been charged with submission in the x prime minister claims. he was also tortured, while in police custody. iran con has vowed another round of street protests against the coalition. government is also appealed to supporters to speak out against restrictions imposed on pakistani news channel ari news saying it has been a pressured into not broadcasting p t. i events looking back for a moment. iran con, was after from power in april, following a vote of no confidence by pakistan's parliament. he is accused america of orchestrating his removal. and may con, oh, to support us to hit the streets, no wave of protests erupt. it. and the rest of gil now threatens to exacerbate on rest in that south asian country by just turning 20 parts down here in the russian capital. german taxpayers will now have to foot the
11:20 pm
bill for replacing russian gas imports as a result of western sanctions. and that is, according to germany's economy minister who has slapped a special tax on job and households. if you're on the market, it's decreased. levy is that fair, responsible way to distribute and bear the additional costs that have accrued among the population. the alternative would have been the collapse of the german energy market and with it large parts of the european energy market. germany developed a business model that was largely based on the dependence on cheap russian gas. this model has failed and it is not coming back. the minister also stressed to the countries households and i'll be paying almost $500.00 euros more for gas per year . as germany's largest importance of the commodity from russia have been struggling to handle the soaring prices on the government has been under pressure to offer relief measures to its citizens and vice president of germany's 80 party in bavaria . raina roth 1st says a regular people should not have to bear the burden of decisions by politicians.
11:21 pm
the gas levy is only the tip of the iceberg. but all together, the story energy prices, which have been caused by those sanctions, they are the driver of a very high inflation rate. and we have to ask, who gets the orders for this for the sufficient for this behavior. and even our energy minister, hobbit has made it here in the united states, the north stream to, i mean, what's ready, what's built, it could have opened already last year in september it was shut down. this is totally against the interest of the german economy. now we have this major crisis in terms of you permission. if people have to carry the burden costs or the gas the brighten triplicate it, then this is the and i would say tolerance of freedom choices for petitions. they will have to find a fusion. well meantime,
11:22 pm
natural gas prices on european markets have searched more than 10 percent of the highest points since march. and this comes as more and more media reports have been revealing so called information fatigue throughout some western countries. the public concerns turning from the ukraine crisis towards domestic issues, especially storing energy prices and overall inflation. let's get some opinion and thoughts now for marty contributor rachel marston. the price at western leaders are willing to download onto their own citizens in order to maintain anti russian sanctions. keeps going up. the headlines in european media haven't been about any kind of great ukrainian military victories against russia. the kind of headlines we saw near the beginning of the conflict or about how western sanctions are bringing the russian economy to. it's nice. know, instead the talk here in europe is all about how much damage is going to be done to european countries. and the bank balances of their own citizens. so now the western
11:23 pm
press is starting to ask whether western unity in favor of egging on ukraine to avoid negotiating. peace is about to crumble nearly 6 months into the war. public outrage over the invasion as giving way to concern bordering on panic about it's alarming. knock on effects on energy and food prices and the cost of living. that in turn is feeding doubts about western staying power. how long before europe's already shaky unity crumbles? 6 months into the conflict information fatigue is creeping in front pages of european media spend more ink on cost of living than on military operations. opinion polls reveal that energy prices are scaring more people than russia nukes. initially, westerners wires to see peace return quickly to ukraine and gave the benefit of the doubt to their leaders that they knew how to do that. but there's clearly been a horrible miscalculation from which western officials aren't backing down. retired us army commander daniel davis, lays out the inconvenient truth in black and white. there is no chance,
11:24 pm
no military path that ukraine can win this war. there simply isn't. we have to be honest about that. and so the, if you keep the st. his on there, they hurt us more than they hurt putin. did western officials know that they be dragging their own citizens into a costly losing battle while misleading them into believing otherwise. or are they just so blinded by ideology that they mistook their desires and fantasies for reality? either way, they're starting to realize that the popular revolts over anti russian sanctions that they were trying to engineer for russia are now much more likely to hit their own countries instead. so another part of our special coverage of their kenyatta us withdrawal from afghanistan, one year on washington now says it's scrapping plans to unfreeze $7000000000.00 of afghan state assets, allegedly because the money could be used to finance terrorists without says other war torn central asian country devastated by 2 decades of
11:25 pm
u. s. occupation now tito, on the verge of famine, ah, by sorry off one the thunder after the us froze, our money people moved under the poverty line when the 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. another shot, in my opinion, the us should not miss st. afghanis. why? the poll people of afghanistan for about 20 years have lived with conflicts hauled ship and suffered poverty. mm. no humble says he went out, we have demanded at washington,
11:26 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. another 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. and if the mother taught him why, if we talk about the sanctions america and poses on our poor and innocent people, they just want to kill people. ah, mm
11:27 pm
ah, the lead of minima. and we want to be seen as ordinary people were not wizards, where people like them all these countries have reached a 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 well, i mean time even some are relatives of 911 victims of cold on us president joe biden, to return the money to the afghan people. as a group of victims, families have sent an open letter to the white house,
11:28 pm
insisting that those funds belong to afghanistan. 95 percent of afghans were 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. ah, which is in dire economic and humanitarian crisis. i don't feel that i am entitled to that money. that is the money at 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 most people have received. i, i,
11:29 pm
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, highly inappropriate that. and it should go to us with them's families. the 1st day
11:30 pm
when we learned that our son had died. tax my husband in my family and i were opposed 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 $3000.00 others have been about that story and much more detail online at all to dot com do. stay tuned. will bring you more about special coverage on the controversial legacy of the us occupation of afghanistan. that'll be all month law paradox. no nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all the history.
