a lot of people make a last ditch effort to save a memorial to soviet soldiers who bottle nazi forces in world war 2. on the e. u. clowns, the host special military training camps for ukraine's armed forces, as the block increasingly gets involved in the conflict with 5 meaning and can pilot in athens and here in moscow this tuesday, august the 23rd. welcome to the global news roundup. on our t, we begin with breaking news from don boss. local officials say 3 people helping killed after the city of done yet came under ukrainian shelling earlier. these are pictures from done yet can mediately after the attack, the cities administration building. so for the most damage, a hotel where journalists often stay was also struck. apartment buildings and cars

in the streets, as you can see here, were damaged as well. the emergency services are dealing with the aftermath of the assault and more and the death toll is likely to rise. ortiz room on cost or is there and such as this report multiple areas. and then as have once again been struck by the artillery of the ukrainian nationalist forces. right now we are right in the center of the city. this is the central hotel. this is where a lot of volunteers are journalists and other people that come from russia and other countries live at while, while they're working internet, you can see the scale of destruction here. this car here is almost completely destroyed. thankfully, there was no one in it. when the show fell right here, now we're also not very for from the administration of the head of the republic. it's very close to here at once again,

the shelling took place in multiple areas of the nasdaq. and that once again, right in the center of the city that's rarely been hit by the ukrainian nationalists. unfortunately, it happens once again this tuesday, according to the local authorities ukraine. nationalists use high caliber artillery . and the, in this case are talking about 155 millimeter nato artillery. exclusive shells used to 155 millimeters caliber. it's a nato type. so the west is directly involved in the destruction of residential areas in don. yes, i believe that the criminal ukrainian regime should get the punish it deserves at least 17 shells landed in the center of the nest, instantly killing civilians and causing damage to infrastructure to people, houses to cars. this is just one of the victims. his name is stem. ah, we have blurred out this picture for him, but 2nd,

tell you that half of his half of his head is gone. his standing here at an intersection, probably probably waiting for people to cross. one of the shell landed and killed him instantly in his core was his wife and his best friends. they're right here has well, and i spoke to them and they told me what happened. it was a book just in an instant bang and we ran out. i was sitting in the back with the dog, lena was on the side, and rou, salon was killed. i ran out with the dog, the dog in my arms, blood all over the place. lena screams, re slung, was killed. nothing is clear, complete chaos. this is another area in central than that square one of the ukrainian shells. us crock! take a look at this car has a full fuss, shrapnel, thankfully no one was in it at the time of that sac, but take

a look at this building. the windows have been blown out and one of the shells, according to the local officials, had landed right into that building. the building opposite is also full of shrapnel, whole, the citizens, all the local residents are now out on the street trying to collect whatever is left of their belongings. and they're hoping that ukrainian nationalist will not strike again at least this tuesday from on call 3 r t. go next. meanwhile, the russian army is advancing in southern ukraine. as you can see here in our news wall, the defense ministry sees ukrainian trips have been pushed back from her song to the borders of the nikolai of region, with russian forces securing dozens of square kilometers of territory. while, according to the m, o. d, several ukrainian army units on the southern front suffered heavy losses. as

a result, russian troops are also carrying successive offences in key tones near done. yet moscow say's high precision strikes, killed the 200 ukrainian nationalists on the done boss frontline as well. ah, you know the story to bring you to day, the russian foreign minister circular for off how strongly condemned the killing of doria do. gonna sing that? those behind the journalists, murder will be shown. no mercy. i believe this is a barbaric crime for which there's no forgiveness. i hope the investigation we completed soon and the f. s. b is already established the facts according to the results, the investigation that could be no mercy for the organizes. the contract is of the killing and the assassins. hundreds of people attended a memorial service to pay their final respects to daria duke anna, who has been posthumously awarded by vladimir putin with the order of courage. people recalled memories of the slain journalists,

including her father. ready remembered the 29 year old as a bright person, fighting for the truth. our teeth don quarterly were here at the funeral of doria doogan, a 30 year old journalist and political analyst who was tragically killed and a terrorist attack here in moscow, russia, it's been an extremely emotional event with hundreds of people, her friends and family showing up in tears to pay their respects. we also heard from her father, alexander doogan, who said a few words mainly focusing on her bright character and her deep love for her homeland and based on what we heard from other people who were here dari, his death was a great loss for many others as well, when did you believe she had no fear? no last conversation, she told me that i feel like a hero and a warrior, and i don't want to any other fate. i want to be with my people with my country. i want to be on the side of the light for mother and i advised her to become a philosopher and she did. she tried to move in that direction. she died for the

people, for russia. she lived in the name of victory and died in the name of victory. that's the biggest prize she had to pay, can only be justified by victory. our victory latimer, potent post humorously bestowed the russian order of courage upon daria, saying that the terrorist attack that took her life was a cruel and heinous crime. he also said that daria had a true russian heart and was a true patriot. just a day before the funeral rushes security bureau, really the conclusions of it's investigation which determines that ukraine security services carried out the attack. and we also heard from a representative of one of russia's major political parties who laid the blame on the scorch of fascism. federalists thought daria fault for the future of russia for the future of humanity. she fought against fascism. as our fathers and grandfathers said, the fascist must be destroyed in its lair. the lowest key of in the contract of the killing is located overseas. they will definitely stun before the course of the

international tribunal. they will be given illegal. verdicts in the course of history is already being held. one of the most shocking aspects of the f s b's report was that the suspected assailant apparently used her 12 year old daughter to actually carry out this attack. and according to the ambassador of the daniel people's republic, this would not be the 1st time the key of has used children to carry out criminal acts, doesn't. chelsea voiced daria visited a dpr very open and even more open this last day. she was among the 1st to be maria pope, in as of south spreading the truth that he so skillfully and persistently hidden that he had didn't spare herself, but realized the heat risk. she was there with us in order to spread the truth around the world. and for this truth that he was killed, the nazi ukrainian regime was nursed by the fact the diarrhea was there at as of styles williams. and she was a journalist. that was the fact that we have a different opinion to the fact that we are not like the nazi carefree, shameful. the fact that we stand up for people and for our history,

it infuriates them much. and this is how they express their loss in front of us. as of now, key of has flat out denied any involvement in this terrorist attack saying that it's security services were not behind it. and so we've also heard from the representative of the secretary general of the united nations calling for an independent investigation to establish the facts surrounding the murder of daria do gonna. so we will have to see if that investigation will go through and what kind of other information can be yielded by it. a former russian state, duma deputy who is now a ukrainian citizen claims kia was not involved in dory. as assassination? ilia palmer have insisted was carried out by a group called the national republican army, which he says is a union of russian liberal forces. thus, despite the group never being heard of before. no, i had a clear understanding that people from the so called national republican army with which we've been in touch since april, have long been preparing an operation with

a larger scale than they had ever done before. when it happened, they sent photos from the scene of the explosion to confirm that it was them. they sent a manifesto. natalia volvic had nothing to do with this campaign. when this message appeared, i contacted people from russia with whom we communicate. and they said, no, it wasn't her british media outlets in particular have picked off, been promoted polymer, evs claims a by the alleged liberal forces fighting against vladimir putin. moreover, they vote so similarly tried to humanize the killing, emphasizing the freshest chief suspect in its is the mother of a 12 year old child geopolitics, expert peer emanuel to man claims. the focus on division within russia is a usual part of the western game. external enemies of russia try to use this sir. teresa talks to try to demonstrate by resenting tongue. our opposition to vladimir putin of, to russia is, may be on the verge of a, into,

on our civil war. it has been always be objective over the atlantis to west, to try to divide to russia, to, to do regime change in russia against vladimir putin. so it's not surprising they ever promote this narrative on that narrative is not credible for my my point of view because this we never heard of is so group or who is supposed to be behind it and do what you have seen so far its own. but control required to close support of a population to be so peroration in ukraine. so i think your of his declaration is not credible for my point of view, but of course it serves virchow propaganda purposes of the atlantis. twist they know the story to tell you by today loved fin authorities in riga, begun dismantling and memorial to soviet soldiers commemorating victory over nazi germany. the controversial move has provoked outrage in moscow and among lafayette

minority ethnic russian community. laughing police arrested at least 5 people from the cries who'd gathered at the site to protest. at the start of this month, authorities in the capital announced the monument would be completely destroyed. less cross to r t peter scott, for more on the situation. hi peter. a desire to dismantle anything that marks victory over the nazis in the 2nd world war appears front on center in baltic states, take it through what's happening in riga. so in reger, specifically, the monuments in question is to the liberators of riga, which was unveiled in 1985 to commemorate the soviets victory over nazi germany. i don't know if you seen it, but it's quite a huge structure. as a novelist, its around 800 meters high is flanked by soviet soldiers on the one side on the soviet women on the other with arms held high. now moved by the latvian, the love you know, forties is just the latest in the baltic region that stowed tensions with russia.

just last week. for example, estonia removed a much smaller monument in the town of nava and both love yet under stone. you have said that they do plan to accelerate the demolition of soviet era monuments in light of the war in the ukraine. but the issue is quite divisive, as you've just said, around 25 percent of latvia. and there is 1900000 population, all ethnic russians, and many of them are against the removal of this monuments. now local authorities, they were, they did not allow some of these people to hold a protest against the demolition of this monument. the latvian russian union that did did plan to hold a protest, but upon it they were not allowed fight because of security and safety continued. does all of the area have been cordoned off in preparation for removal worse. now this isn't the 1st controversy surrounding this particular structure. on may,

the 9 annually locals would gather and they would lay flowers to commemorate the soviet role in liberating leak, as well as the sacrifices may made by soviet troops. local police said this year, the day amounts, it's around $20000.00 people. boats the next day on may the 10th, many people will call they check their social media accounts and they saw some shocking footage of those flowers, thousands, tens of thousands of which being bull goes now this understandable caused a wave of discontent and condemned by both the russian foreign ministry as well as the latvian russian union, both in an act of defiance. people went back that day to lay more flowers we sent stayed for some time, but the contrivances surrounding this monument definitely don't. and on the a may, the 10th, there was a young lady of 19 years old at the time, alexander stefan of he was up, she arrested for waiving a russian flag and giving a speech that now he says he sees the victory day and waving the russian flags as

a symbol of unity. but i think it's fair to say that the love in authority in the police didn't see it that way. they saw his actions as supporting the war and ukraine. now he faces up to 5 years in jail. just certainly a have to sentence for waving a flag like a say, a very divisive issue, and i'm sure this won't be the last time we'll be discussing the baltic states moving soviet era memorials. ortiz peter scott taken us through that. thanks, peter. and indeed, as he mentioned, a full quarter of love fears, population or ethnic the russian and the chief editor of the bolt news website, believes authorities there are only ignoring the values of that grouping. shanie. this is a criminal decision made in the context of the crisis in ukraine. attempts to impose this decision on the ruling majority have long been tried and the situation has formed such this become possible. this was taken advantage of the program was announced to dismantle all military graves and soviet monuments. this monument was

a holy place for the russian speaking population. and hundreds of thousands of people come from many cities on mass on may. the 9th and the latvian nationalists did not care about the opinion of these people. their values were ignored. in order to humiliate russians in addition to the monument, there is a struggle with everything russian, the language symbols in saint george's ribbon, oper habits, it may. the 9th is constantly marginalized and laughing authorities demonized this day. and the last one was the monuments. it was protected by a bilateral agreement with russia, but the latvian side does not comply with these documents and unilateral decided everything itself by critics of claim, the e. u is edging towards ever more direct involvement in the conflict than ukraine. that's as the block is telling to conduct large scale, military training of ukrainian armed forces to use western weaponry against russian troops. here's our t contribute our rachel marston's take on that. the rhetoric from some leadership figures in europe is growing increasingly militaristic and seems to be laying the

groundwork for greater aggression and involvement in the ukraine conflict. the european union's chief diplomat, joseph burrell said on monday that the blocks defense ministers will be considering a proposal at their meeting in prague next monday, and tuesday to get involved in training ukrainian troops on e u territory. last one, i believe it seems reasonable that a war that is lasting and looks set to last requires an effort. not only in terms of supplies of material nicky, but also in training and assistance to the organization of the army. and i hope it will be approved. it will not be in ukraine. it will be in neighboring countries, which already have training missions. britain and canada are already train ukrainian fighters and britain may be canada will actually vet them this time to avoid the embarrassment of being outed by the canadian mainstream media again for training fighters who flagrantly supported neo nazi symbols and speaking at the use land warfare conference in london,

britain's army chief general sir patrick sanders evoke to ramping up called operation. mobilize to prepare british troops for urban combat and to fight alongside nato allies in a high intensity conflict in europe. the british armies top ranked, warn officer paul carney, also just wrote in soldier magazine, which is the official monthly published by the case ministry of defense that british troops should get ready for the possibility of deployment. amid the ukraine conflict for which they should prepare their families, i want us all to check. we are physically fit for operations, and it is also important. we prepare loved ones and families who often have the hardest role in our absence. now, french president, a mandarin mac hall, also raised eyebrows here in france a few days ago when he framed the energy crisis and economic hardship caused by the use own sanctions as the price of freedom in a quote, war economy. should thomson look through,

i am thinking of all people who will meet the strength of mind to face the times ahead to resist uncertainties sometimes to ease adversity and united, agree to pay the price of our freedom and our values. france isn't at war with russia, but it seems like an attempt to blame russia for french citizens suffering under the ease on sanctions. it also makes you wonder what he knows about how bad things are about to get here in europe. as the energy and inflation crises start to really bite, all of this militaristic rhetoric seems all the more risky in light of some ukranian officials growing increasingly bold in their violent remarks. graham, sir, richard ward, we tried to kill as many russians as possible, where the more we kill russians now, the less our children will have to kill them. that's it. and european and western officials, if they truly want peace, they certainly seem to be had in precisely the opposite direction with their recent

comments. the un secretary general has co. busy for come a d escalation of tensions and respect for rule of law in pakistan, that's after terrorism charges were made against former prime minister m. ron come local reporter, java runa has the latest developments for us from the pakistani capital. right now, i'm inside of islam bud. hi, quote. a, here's the 3 member of the judges have concluded to issue a short cause. notice to the former, i'm assumed on hum. he has been someone pushed in on august 31st. it appears to have decided to proceed with the legal proceeding argues of homer 5, mr. on contempt of court judges the allegation that he is a form of a mr. non hahn. he's done last week in the public gathering. he taken a judge often. lord, judy, should he and he had taken that he would pick a legal action against the judge, offer georgia to shoot because she did not provide legal to leave to run off his

laws. aid who has been allegedly postured by police and the secret senses. and it appears that the better lines had been drawn between font full pockets ability. and the expert prime minister, who is, appears to be more extremely popular in focus on. and he has a lot you can feed that to heave off, run an independent fund policy. now the bug hassan middle tree, which is a known to be pro u. s. and bach us on has been an ally of the us for the last decade. but from what i missed him on han last to have an independent foreign policy. and according to the nicholas said, with a 72 percent focus on his consider the us as the enemy in dark context of the gum, it null to pull us government, which has been brought in in pot, often moving the foreman, feminist government. they are prosecuting for family um, if i mistook on video charges just a few days back a day. that was just

a case and you can kiss against him on tendon charges a yesterday he was polite of legal to leave and he followed by mr. has made public that behind a scene. he's a being fresh allies that he should go soft on us. the fees are prosecuted by these law by the high court on contain. so what just that means that he can be imprisoned . he can be gen 46 months, and also he can be disqualified. he would not be able to contest parliamentary elections for next 5 years, which means he will not be able to become the prime minister. yeah, really a powder keg situation going on there on a senior member of them. ron counts p t i party believes the current government is afraid of the popularity of the country's former leader. first fever on han was supposed to be booked for a blasphemy to art. then now the new noise that the separate, equally, monty witted anti terrorism charges against him wrong. this is unprecedented in,

but on hon is a law abiding citizen, is one of the area, the quantity of what addition having bugs on is being liable to get him on. han is one of the law abiding citizen on both sides about the law and his financial transmitters. everybody's afraid of him. ron hotspot that everybody wants to keep him away from the quarter thick. so anything happening around him? be it cases in the election, we should be the cases in this normal high gord are in the lord court. there's all the objective is one to keep him around on of it because he's popular and public is behind him. and whenever there is a popular leader, history has been dunning, us, that every force would work against him, especially. we have unprecedented n d u, a sentiment and bach, your son spoke forced this redeemed change exercise. so everybody warned them to be away from poet. emron can, who was listed earlier this year as the nation's prime minister has been under intense pressure from his political rivals, who of course, are now in power. that situation strong plenty of parallels to what's happening.

state site, but former u. s. president donald trump ortiz rachel blevins, picks up the story. the crackdown on the former prime minister of pakistan continues, months after he was removed from office, and it's drawn comparisons to the vine and ministrations treatment of former president trump. in a world where both former officials have seen their supporters compared to domestic terrorist in round con is now reportedly facing terrorism charges. following a speech, he gave to a crowd of supporters in which he vowed a lawsuit against police, alleging that they tortured his close aid. this cons as regulators have also banned the live broadcast of his speeches. drawing sharp criticism from con in response, the fascist imported government sung to a new, lo today by banning life coverage of my speeches on tv and then blocking you to temporarily during my speech at least get bog. all this,

after continuous intimidation of media persons and taking channels off air earlier, con continues to address anti government protest after he was removed and a vote of no confidence back in april the on the government attempts to limit who can listen to his speeches that has only led to more attention and more support, so of kindness facing terrorism charges. then what does that mean for his supporters? and could they face action themselves? notably, hundreds of individuals gathered outside of conn's home after the police investigation into his speech was announced. and they've out to take over the capitol if he was arrested. so far that hasn't happened as a court issued a protective order that prevents his arrest for at least 3 days. ah, i comparisons to the politics in the u. s. have come about as trumps. reach was also

limited after he was banned by all major social media platforms. however, his supporters did participate and protest that turned into riots at the u. s. capital back in january 2021. their faces were placed on f. b. i wanted posters, and so far the longest sentence stands at more than 7 years. and while trump himself has hinted at running for off as again in 2020 for the current administration, appears to be doing everything in its power to keep him out of the white house. earlier this month, trump's home was rated by the f b. i with a search warrant revealing an investigation under the espionage act. similar scrutiny has been applied to con. as pakistan's media watchdog argue that the prime minister's speeches amount to threats against state institution and government officials. and therefore, it cannot be broadcast live, it has been observed that mr. iran con chairman pakistan. terry key in soft in his

speeches and statements is continuously alleging state institutions by leveling baseless allegations and spreading hate speech through his provocative statements against state institutions and officers which is prejudicial to the maintenance of law and order, and is likely to asterisk, disturb public peace and tranquillity at the tail of 2 populous politicians who continued to influence the public despite the fact that they are no longer in office, raising questions of how far the government's will go to st. silence their voices, and how their supporters will respond. now the idea of creating a clone of nato around the pacific has long been a dream in washington political circles, but how close to reality is such an alliance? oksana on worlds apart gets into that. let's next ah, ah,

ah ah. hello to welcome to was a part of the idea of creating a clone of leader around the pacific ocean has been tantalizing the minds of western strategist ever since washington announces intention to give it to asia. but it never quite came to fruition, in part because of india hesitancy isn't going to be more likely now after the

conflict in your crane. well, to discuss it are now joined by kevin, stephanie, a former engine army officer, and the editor of the force news magazine. it's great to talk to you, sir. thank you very much for your time. thank you. now your cream is half a world away, but i was personally surprised by how much attention is paid to this subject in the indian media. and frankly, by the level of the depths of analysis. because this is quite something, something different than what we see in the western media. i mean, not supporting russia, but understanding the context and all the antecedents, strategic and secure again to students. how come the indian seems to be more knowledgeable on this topic than many of the europeans who are much closer to the actual place of conflict? you see, there are 2 fundamental things here. the 1st is that russia is both the european body as well as the issue.
