russia for the global energy prices, hungary approved moscow construction of 2 new nuclear reactors. the country's foreign minister praises the move. thanks to these 2 new nuclear unit, we can insure hungary energy security for the long term and protect the hungarian population. the narrative that kosovo is, serbia needs to be forgotten. that's the controversial statement from america's envoy to the western balkans, during a visit to belgrade in an effort to east pensions between opposing sides. ah! good morning for moscow from wherever you may be watching. welcome and happy could join us for this hour's top news stories from around the world. i'm pure elizabeth . we start with the latest on the ukraine conflict rushes air defense system has reportedly gone into action near the city of you have but doria in the crimea.

the this video posted on social media late on friday evening claims to show explosions in the night air region allegedly filmed by local residents. russia is yet to confirm that the air defense system went into action. earlier friday, 5 people including 2 children, died after ukraine shell, the settlement of coin share vo in those upper rows of region, which is under russian control. he has military was using america's high marsh rocket system, according to the regions governor among the infrastructure damage was a residential building, although a member of the reasons administration. so there was no military objects nearby. in the look on the people's republic, 3 people died and 7 more were wounded. what a hospital came under fire from kiev again with us provided high marsh rocket

launchers, that's according to russia's defense ministry. meanwhile, ground fighting continues in the don. yes, republic, where russian back troops are advancing on sounds that are used as firing positions by the ukraine in army. one of them is marty inc, near don. yes or r t. z. romano. closer. a visit at the republics army. ah, the 2nd tank battalion of the nest people's republic armies. 5th brigade are now working against the enemy, czar gets in its own whole far madi and god. the city of the desk is still constantly being shelled by ukrainian nationalist, and these guys are instrumental in destroying ukrainian army positions just on the outskirts of the nest, in the town, all for muddy. and gar, according to officials, at least 75 percent of the town, is now free, and they'll be making sure that there are no more ukrainian artillery positions.

we're now at the headquarters of the 2nd tank battalion on the outskirts of done that the tank is already working against the ukrainian nationalists positions. now these guys are now operating the drone, which is right above the tank hands. are they making sure that it hits the target that it needs a little okay. approach though, and you said you list areas well fortified. the defense was prepared in advance, so it's hard to move forward and we do it slowly, but with determination for the shims resumed. and the fundamental difference between them and us is that we protect our lance, how children, parents, from all citizens of that. the next glance, republics, what they destroy is now families. they are cold blooded. this soviet see, 64 tank is back from the front line as you can see it. so all,

in fact the crew are safe and sound and like they said, they were working against ukrainian nationalists, military positions. right now they will reload and head back to the front room on call for if hearty, the nest people's republic in the upper o. j. the ukrainian military open fire 10 times on the regions nuclear power plant on friday. that's according to local russian back officials who say the shelling has hit an area used to store radioactive waste. no damage was reported and the radiation level is said to be at a normal rate. we got insight into the situation at the plant, europe's largest from alexi and below. gov, a former worker there who says that any further ukrainian shelling would mean a constant blackout for millions of rather residents, but look at them as answer never in human history. fortunately has active military action been waged near nuclear power plant and is the 1st time that

a policy to the conflict i. ukraine has deliberately targeted a nuclear power plant with the intention of hitting its most vulnerable task that the contain. this was the most dangerous and the most radioactive materials, of course, were in built a sustained attacks by a multiple rocket launch system or high caliber artillery, where there is a very high chance that sooner or later there'll be a direct hit on one of them cream before the conflict, these approach a nuclear plant power, it's 20 percent of all ukraine. but every 5th kilowatt hour was produced there. of course consumption has reduced dramatically in ukraine now because a lot of industries thought and masses of people left. and it was only because of this that the ukraine in electrical system didn't collapse and thursday, when there was a temporary power kat williams of ukraine, things by hitting the plant. there won't be a boomerang effect against them all, but there will be will. and for the millions of people living in the region, if the shelling continue, it will mean constant blackouts and for a long time, no, it was good. while european leaders continue to blame moscow for the energy crisis

to new russian made nuclear power, generators are to be installed at a hungary empower plat. alexi lee hatch of the head of russia, state nuclear energy company rose. adam sees them move as a step of mutual trust at the theatre. levy is restored here. this is the 1st license in recent history obtained by rosa tom in the european union. this is very important. these nuclear blocks already have an output in the russian federation. they have been working effectively for several years. we are building them in a number of countries. we. this is environmentally friendly and inexpensive electricity. we also have some of the most economically attractive indicators, right. we have been co operating with hungary for many years and there are plans to expand co operation, making such a decision shows a high level of trust towards our technologies and specialists who 2 of them leaching them for the 1st time in recent history, russian nuclear power units are to be installed in

a european union member nation with construction expected to begin as soon as october, moscow in budapest here a long history of mutual cooperation and energy, and the hungarian foreign minister has fed. he sees the agreement as a turning point that ensures his country's energy security as it might a day and or in hungary we have been working for a long time to expand the existing blockage nuclear power plant with 2 new powerful units. what does the moon cry? this work has come to a new turning point as hundreds and even thousands of permits are needed for the construction of a new nuclear power plant. thanks to 2 new nuclear unit as we can insure hungary energy security for the long term and protect the hungarian population from sharp fluctuations and international energy market. we will therefore insure a policy of reducing utility costs. i think that the obtaining a construction license as a major milestone was a turning point. and that strengthens our hope that by 2030, the nuclear power plant will begin its activity at hawkinsville jars of wylie,

a senior research fellow at the global policy institute in london says hunger. his leader is simply trying to do the right thing for his people. dick dorman has repeatedly said that he thinks that the sanctions policy against russia is absolutely ridiculous and destructive hope you're seeing the economy or a european union is supposed to cover a whole oil imports from russia by the end of the year. but i'm really going to call out it's going to go on is made clear that these things is just absolutely ridiculous. and that is just a minute is to look after the interest of the people who had focus it on years. nato is turning its eyes to the arctic alliance. has gen. stilton burke has made his official visit to canada's frozen far north.

despite the country's longstanding resistance to nato involvement in the region. from there, the chief of north atlantic alliance attempted to justify nato's encroachment by highlighting a perceived russia china threat. increasing parts of the arctic will be ice free in summer. this is unlocking opportunities for shipping routes, natural resources in economic development. but it also raises the risk of tensions . authoritarian regimes are clearly willing to use military intimidation or aggression to achieve their aims. at the same time, they're stepping up their activities. an interest in the arctic sultan berg went on to stress. the need for quote, euro atlantic security accusing russia, which has warned against militarization of the art of increasing its activity in the region. placing quote, the u. s. at risk and accusing china of planning a new polar soap road, he said nato plans to step up its activities as a response. but the vice chair of the swedish piece council claim stilton burke is

not being honest about the alliance presence. stall simberg is a liar, i think when he will make us believe that they have now been in the north for the 1st time. there has been yearly, military exercises in the entire north main door has never brought stability. nato is a war alliance and goes, ne, do has is not defending anything. they are an attack force, canada in the u. s. bidding in the arctic. the us don't care about anything but defeating russia, that was o. crane, among other things is about and while nato had that i sat on russia and china,

norberg again says the alliance has an economic focus on helping western countries plunder the article resources under the ice when it's melting. the 5th, all the world's oil is there, and the 3rd of the world's gas, so is under the ice. so it's not only a love, strategic am thinking. it's also all rubbing their area from resources as they tend to do from the west, poor europe. what will they do? we know they have not all these resources and so they are sure i and so i think they have to do everything they can in their mind to get

hands all their resources in the arctic might be a way of helping the west in their sense, made and a predicament by being it, so i ranch and right out stupid, ah, as the pentagon continues to shower, ukraine's military with money and weapons, the u. s. inspector general says he's well aware of possible corruption in the thousands of contracts with care of we have developed a universe of thousands of ukraine related contracts that come in under $2000000.00 each. that's more than $7800.00 contracts valued at a combined to point $2000000000.00. yet nato official says that the tracking and security system should be tested. concerns have grown over the ukrainian arms accounting system and the fidelity of camps government. after some weapons have reportedly been found their way into the dark web,

where ukrainian traders offered not only arms but javelin, anti tank systems, and phoenix ghost roads. previously, europe, whole warned that some of these weapons might be smuggled into the e u. regarding the war in ukraine, euro pole has warned that the proliferation of firearms explosives in ukraine could lead to an increase in weapons and munitions. trafficked into you. this threat might even be higher once the conflict has ended earlier this week bite and also announced another package of military aid to ukraine. estimated at almost $3000000000.00, including air defense and artillery systems, munitions and radars. in total, washington has now provided $10600000000.00 and military aid to cab and committed $25000000000.00. former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter says there's a danger of american weapons flooding. the european union. all it takes is one javelin missile, getting the hands of, of the wrong people. and you could have

a dead political leader in europe. all it takes is one stinger, anti, or missile. and you have a airliners shot down and we have the potential of having dozens, if not more, of these are highly lethal weapons, man, portable weapons, weapons fit in the trunk of a car. you know, flooding europe. it's too late. you can't put that genie back in the bottle. i mean, things can be done going forward to, to try to control these weapons. but, you know, the problem isn't so much the lack of a system of accountability on the part of the united states. the problem is ukraine . it's one of the most corrupt places on the planet. a nation that should broiled in war were the norms of the rule of law have gone out the window. we don't think what happens when those weapons making the ends of al qaeda and isis

and are turned on americans in our allies, the same thing in ukraine. you know, we claim to be this big supporter of nato, except for the european union. and yet, the weapons that we're providing ukraine will end up through the black market into the hands of terrorists and criminal elements. and so you can do harm to the european union to our nato allies. you know, it's, it's, it's absurd. and the extreme discord in the united nations, less than a 3rd of the organizations, 193 member states, have back the statement instigated by cab condemning russia over the conflict and ukraine at a new york gathering of the un security council. the statement was read out by survey has let's, yeah, ukraine's ambassador to the un signatories include the united states, the european union, canada, japan and the united kingdom. while countries such as india and china didn't sign,

we discussed the lack of unity at the un with so many lots united nations. unfortunately, by the long years, we're not in a resolution with the gospel, they're simply gentle, because of the pressure is done by the whole country, american wine, most of the time, don't do a fresh and all the countries in order to get them to lucian walking about now and then you may get it by the west, especially with the united states and britain, and then you know, a ship and the people want to what they started to know which is long. and which is why washington is beginning to realize that it's an old tool kit using the military and as, as, as a weapon, ocean and,

and bleeding this and using sanctions. i think that they are quite desperate about losing their head gemini, wide, a place for defending the so called democracy. the united states, as well as movie, is allowing, is a way to put pressure on these proceed entities including russia and china. i think more and more countries in the developing world, seeing to america policy, i'll double standards because again, it's been fucking baby was over the past so many decades. and it's using american exceptionalism to so collection and bullying other countries. but of course, that this is not something which can be addressed by the letters of the month. nation shorter people wondered why now they are separate interference. they're not

getting it over the buck you have the vote of. it's not trained trying to impose a 100 the, a watch movies. yeah, movies in the war. there was even in the m and even with frank troops, b, m. and so nowadays on their, in to the doctor you asking federalism then the fifty's on the 17th century, when the po, canada doctrine trying to surround the bank a seat in the pacific. so, i think so that they are not only against russia, they are all against middle powers. and the original connection from shall high to most, call a soon as i want to be, don't accept any other country to be in the forefront or just to be like a life with china, with the idea of plus the brakes. countries in brazil, russia, india, china and south africa. other countries like mexico and gina,

and even in central european countries are falling to line. so you can see the oil is changing, no longer be paid by u. s. equity. but then again, for the washington and a lot of the western countries still living in a, a g s. if they can continue to sit on top of the world. ah, american special envoy to the western balk and says he helps tension between christina and belgrade. do not escalate. yeah, it has thrown further feel to the fire by stating that the very idea that possible is part of serbia should be forgotten, raising a few eyebrows. i think we have to move away from the narrative that close of always serbia and move toward the the narrative that causal and serbia are europe. the envoy acknowledge that washington is not a participant in the dialogue between serbia and pulse of all talks that serbian

president, alexander who church says have failed to ease tensions that are generally going in the right direction. who says he is hopeful of compromise as the talk continue tensions between belgrade and christina started spiraling out of control last month after kosovo announced the serbian issued identity documents and card number plates would no longer be valid. the decision of prompted for roddick clashes between ethnic serbs, local albion, and police, with some roads temporarily was implementation of the new ruling by kosovo, has now been postponed till september 1st. the boy shall mileage a serbian american journalists and historian says that the u. s. envoys statement illustrates washington's long last employ for the region. you have the american government going all we please. we hope that there is no tensions. but both tacitly and literally encouraging tensions by basically giving a green light to the course of all by any means to go ahead and implement this

illegal power grab. and then of course, when something happens they'll be think always some align russian influence. we must put in more troops and spend more money on racy on missiles in order to make this happen. so i think it's a cynical power ploy and it's, it's perfectly in line with everything that the u. s. has done in the region since $999.00, regardless of which party has been in power. saudi arabia from best $1000000000.00 in cash to pakistan as the countries economic crisis worsens. this comes a days after pakistan secured other multi $1000000000.00 funding from golf countries, including tar and the u. e. the transfers are part of the countries commitment to credit crisis stricken pakistan, which will help is lama bod receive much needed aid from the international monetary fund. with the organization to hold a meeting next week that could pave the way for more funding. meanwhile,

pakistan continues to struggle with the aftermath of deadly floods which affected at least 33000000 people and claimed the lives of at least 900 people. a situation the country's climate change minister has called a quote, humanitarian disaster of epic proportions. the country has already urged the international community to help with relief efforts. pakistan's, former ambassador to the u. e, and either on, i see durante says islam about has the potential to cope with both the fallout from the disaster. and it's economic problems. bug son has a now getting together and this is not the 1st time we had to us or to improve the fire. and then we had to us, it includes in the i one who's there was going to nurses who since been biological then by the baby. and again, i'm on as the dam of interest. now g,

a close to $4000000.00, which has been met by 2 in. so david, so i think this is one of the conditions which i think so dad has step in and it is going to have the problem which focused on has been a cd to la nathan with dime as many as 723 prisoners are being held without trial in israeli jails, the highest number in over a decade. that's according to a major israeli newspaper. all of them are reported to be of palestinian origin. among them are 11 children with palestinian detainees held for lengthy periods and without being charged or convicted. as many as a 184 palestinians have been held in such detention for more than a year, is really authorities claimed the right to indefinitely prolong these detention

periods while the high court has already rejected. 18 appeals to void such decisions. the policy known as administrative detention has been repeatedly condemned by the un. israel has also been accused of misreading prisoners with one such case that a former aid worker in gaza. mohammed al ha lobby was arrested 6 years ago and found guilty of embezzling millions of dollars for gases. grandma's administration . viewed as terrorists by israel, but rights groups including amnesty international say his confession was obtained under duress. we heard from mohammed's parents and o added to the sea of hum heading mohammed his face 171 sessions in court. and now he is waiting another one. the last session, according to one of the attendees, was a black day in the history of israel. they accused mohammed or several challenges, but all of them are falsely aware. mohammed face severe injustice during his

detention india's rony prison, where he spent $52.00 days on the torture of london, after which he lost 20 kilograms. that famous watch. and madame insanely the last thing i expected was that mohammed would be arrested with his activity was limited to humanitarian work. and he was preparing coupons for the poor. it had nothing to do with politics. we expect that he will be released because no charges have been proven against him and we are sure he has not committed any crime. since mohammed have since i have been suffering from heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, i demand that the world international institutions and human rights organizations. you mm hm. it's case as a humanitarian issue and resolve it thought. so one foot over israel insist that our holidays charges were well established while also defending its detention policy as a way of preventing attacks by suspects. while evidence is being gathered, the director of the out of mere human rights organization believes israel uses mass

arrest campaigns as a tool of control over the palestinian population. this is a gray fe, relation for the basics of human rights actually are distinct. people without charges, without a trial, this is out of battery detention. this is a great favor lation for the 4th geneva convention if they really have evidence as against those people, why they don't charge them in the trial and enable them to defend themselves. can you understand at a stinky child and are 18 years old and claiming that he's code cozying the threat, a very serious threat to the security that can justify at us think him for one year . it's a total of control over population, the full senior population. this is why they lounge mad at us campaigns. i hope that the international community will understand that without serious actions, without effective actions against the is that only

a government will not abide to the international law will not to respect and implement that obligations and our international law. that said, on the hour's top news stories from around the globe for more news coverage, head over to r t dot com and follow us on rumble and odyssey for more video content. thanks for watching and see you next hour. ah ah ah
