a nuclear power plant. the ceiling, one of the residential areas where the violence has intensified is the contested village of zion civil, which is still partially held by ukrainian troops who were shelling the rushing control part of the village. this by the ongoing cottage. some locals have refused to leave their homes, as ortiz, long calls or reports from the thing. the village of reside summer is still partially under control of ukrainian nation, is forces. over the last 8 years, her residents here have been divided. one part of the village was under ukrainian control and the other one was under control of the nest people's republic. and that means that people here have been suffering under constant shelling for the last 8 years and it only intensified over the last 6 months. and that of course, also means that basic necessities here are very scarce. so we brought some

humanitarian aids to make their lives just a little bit easier. right now we're heading along with the head of the sites of lettuce, love. he will show us the latest consequences hold ukrainian shilling. however, he's been here for the last 8 years and, and does not plan to leave this, isn't it jonathan? for this is the city center. there have never been military positions here. all of our infrastructure is located here, all that is left in the ukrainians are trying to destroy it through the the area where the administration building is located here in a zide sofa is right in the epicenter of the shilling. now these are just some of the fragments of the shells that's ordered on peaceful civilians, xyz, we're still has a population. however, the place where we are located is now completely deserted. now we're still walking around the sides of our but so we can't find any people at all. but so while we are

walking, we have to do it very, very carefully, because there are still hundreds and hundreds of metal mines, anti personnel, so called butterfly mines, designed if not to kill, but to mame. a person for life, not them, but in lieu of every day there is shelling baby i have a granddaughter. i'm happy that i managed to send her away from here before everything started 6 months ago. she could have been killed here. for example, my husband was in the bedroom when the shelling started with the windows were blown out and fragments of glass flew at him. oh, it's unbearable to live here. do it another year. i'm so tired. the shelling has been going on for 9 years already. we have neither our children nor grandchildren come to see us because they feel threatened least. it's even hard to go out into the garden. there are bullets everywhere. every thing explodes. the roof of our

house f, as in fragments, 14 residence halls, zide silver were killed by ukrainian nation is forces since the beginning of the conflict back in 201431. people were wounded. and unfortunately the number of casualties may grow. just like the number of houses schools, kindergarten is destroyed. now this is just one of those kindergartens. it was the freshly built back in the year 2020. but so far it's cannot open its doors due to constance. shelling chrome on call for of rti. don't ask people's republic. across in east asia, china is on high alert, warning for dates, ready to repel any provocations in the taiwan straits of the to us war ships, posts through neutral waters that earlier on sunday, washington claims its vessels conducted a routine transit in accordance with international law. usa to move demonstrate its

commitment to a free and open in the pacific region. china responded immediately by saying, get tracks the u. s. ships as they made their way through the straight. or the chinese military is poised to respond to any additional incidence. as a taiwanese defense ministry, as it detected 23 chinese aircraft, and 8 military vessels operating around high one. as paging military operations near the islands continue. it's the 1st such case of american naval activity in the disputed area and the weight of a controversial visit to taiwan by us. how speaking nancy pelosi, earlier this month, they didn't consider taiwan parts of china and responded to policies. trip with a series of military exercises around the island. he's a reminder of how the situation unfolded. how speaker nancy pelosi is planned to visit taiwan potential stop in taiwan. visiting taiwan is in taiwan. why is she assisting that? she may well go to taiwan. it would be

a serious violation of the one china principal and a grave infringement on china's sovereignty and territorial integrity. those who play with fire will come to no good end. ah, think we are in an unpredictable moment. chinese military assembling at 6 different locations around the island us china relations are on shaky ground. seems to me your main goal was to stir up trouble. thanks for bringing more problems to the world. america stands with taiwan, who's

with beijing announce it will impose, i'm specifying sanctions john or will stop cooperation with us on several prominent issues with parent of measures are being directed at the united states. now the u. s. as acting treacherously on the taiwan issue with nick took our vice president's all the sense of china and globalization says that by sailing the warships near taiwan, the u. s. shows in this regard of china's jurisdiction in the rated. the international law of the sea is governing behavior like the passage through the power, the street. it is open for navigation by civilian as well as naval ships, but they need to be subject to the jurisdiction of china. that simple, i think the united states is misleading the world by sailing through the taiwan street as if for example,

the abiding by the innocent passage by telling the whole world that they are not abided by the innocent passage. they want to do this as a demonstration to china and tell the whole world that they disregard. turn those jurisdiction in the taiwan straits. what the united states is doing ever since nancy pelosi is illicit visit to taiwan, is a series of provocations. their aim is simple, they want to come out taiwan from china. this is in violation of china sovereignty and territorial integrity. and they will never succeed. the news from north africa now where are at least 32 people have been killed and a 159 wounded in clashes and libby as capital as, according to the countries health ministry. this is the aftermath of the fighting. the bro count on saturday in tripoli, rival militia groups exchanged heavy guns fire with local media, saying the clashes were initiated by one of the competent was strongest. factions

that were new to violence comes as rival forces continue to live for power. the. the conflict has we ignited due to a standoff between 2 rival governments. the us bank tripoli based governments of national unity under rival administration, supported by the parliament in libby as eastern city of coverage. but slides playing each other for the clashes a country has not had a stable government since more. i'm a good don't. it was toppled and killed by nathan rebels in 2011 shot on us lebanese university professor jamal. we came phase. the western medlink has made the life of libyans much worse. i believe that the nato has destroy livia, under the pretext of change under the pretext of imposing a gemini, human rights and all this western formula to justify intervention and countries that are local criticism again. but during his rule,

the resources of the libyan people of libya were in the hands of the people. now we see that the people of all these rights and of all these advantages to the favor of you, munitions, that support my body is the dental and the national pose. i believe that the west on the part of the problem, they were the ones to get trouble in libya and because they weren't the ones who tonight and you meant an agenda, all dividing libya into the spots in order to reduce the resources the way the less does with the resources of non western countries, they use foreign policy chief phase europe facing major challenges due to

a deepening energy crisis. but here's a burrell insist that is the point 0. pains must be willing to pay for freedom. we are facing major challenges in the short term. there is no denying that the price of gas is rising, but we must be willing to pay a price for freedom. after all, the war in ukraine is not just a war for ukrainians, but a war for our freedom. european electricity price is sold to new records on friday, the year ahead, contract for germany, electricity reach $995.00 euro per megawatt hours. while the french equivalent surge past 1100 euro and more than 10 fold increase in both countries from last year, you are p and media outlets are raising fresh concerns about the energy crisis. the latest addition of french magazine, shalley a dose shows president mac wrong collecting firewood was saying 1st come 1st serve all persons the mirror has called on you k latest to find it a do something about the rising prices with

a tabloid newspaper suggesting that some britons will freeze to death this coming winter. many germans aren't happy with their bills either and say they simply cannot afford a further price hike. either the energy prizes energy prices are of course gigantic dish and there is no question that they are a terrible burden for consumers. throughout europe. i have no understanding why energy companies make such improbable profits and the consumers have to pay for it . on the i have isn't i should in on we're just students and you can already tell that there is somehow less money left in your wallet at the end of the month. of course, it is a bit of a worry for consumers. energy savings also have their limits. at that point, politicians have to intervene by lowering the taxes. if you question to younger students, our costs of living have risen in our household, but there are many ways you can save energy. for example, instead of heating your entire house to 20 degrees, you can shut the door and keep other rooms where you were not spending much time a bit cooler. meanwhile,

hungary is foreign minister says that you are appearing stay under the influence of quote, the liberal mainstream. and that's why they're imposing sanctions on russian energy . hungary does not want to negotiate any energy sanctions, either in relation to loyal or natural gas. and i want to say that we are not alone in this. it may seem that there is political courage and political stability, but not everyone shares these qualities. there is such incredible pressure from the liberal mainstream on those who tell the truth, that if there is not a certain level of political stability, the country will not be able to act independently. not freedom for the average german nor average britain or frenchman who can't hate his home this winter. some in europe don't regard. don't share mister barrels opinion either. forest johnston is called the shared sacrifice. but everybody in britain who has the capacity to think knows the forest johnson will not be part of that sacrifice. mister barrell of mister johnson, calling upon the ordinary people of europe to sacrifice for the geo. them's their

own safety and security this winter for the geopolitical aims of the united states . that is what there is these really being called for. he oldest talk of freedom and values. it means precisely nothing. it is about a attempt by the united states to preserve it's a gemini over europe. and that is why they keep pursuing this proxy war and ukraine with the russians. and until people are ready to go out and protest and force the politicians to behave differently, they're going to keep using this excuse and hiding behind lofty rhetoric of freedom and democracy when really this is an ugly game of power politics in which the european working and middle class populations are the sacrifice that the politicians in europe are willing to make for the benefits of preserving their relationship with the americans. the west take their problems again to be our problems, but that will not happen. that's what full pakistan prime minister in ran con,

told my colleague he to know neil doing an exclusive interview this week. the wide ranging discussion came shortly after and his lam, a band court extended cons, bail following terrorism charges against him. they have made this into a terrorism case, the ban my life coverage on, on, on, on screen. and they're trying to band me from politics because there's a case of contempt against me since i left office 4 months back. never has there been such a public response for, for any political body as it is for my body today? the government is panicking. they out there watching us grow in popularity. we. we swept the by elections and the biggest province in punjab. the other 2 bi election which was swept so there, but scared and that's why they're clamping down. if we go back mister cam to when

you are interested from power in the spring time, you've mentioned several times that certain documents exist that confirm foreign interference in your removal from power. are you in any position to tell us what those documents may be? well the, the sofa and the conversation between the biggest and best and washington and the under secretary of state of, of the you of the u. s. there's a conversation between them where he threatens the august sunny and besta that unless i am ron, ron was removed as a prime minister in a no confidence emotion. that book that still wasn't table as yet, that there would be consequences for august on the biggest problem is that western countries expect their problems to become are problems, some backgrounds for you in april, a know confidence vote. we moved in ron kon,

from the country's top political position, and the x p. m has been holding large rallies regularly ever since. earlier this month, his chief of staff was arrested on charges of sedition to connie. this shop on school was tortured by police and custody. something officials denied it was added to occupation and was used in a campaign rally to quote, take action against the police chief and the judge which led to the terrorism charges to form a cricket saw has immunity from a residence. and the next high court hearing on august 31st iran con, came under intense international pressure for visiting moscow earlier this year. during his discussion with our c pakistan's, former leader said he was simply seeking to boost economic ties between the 2 nations. well look, you know, the country is foreign policy must be for the benefit of their own public. 220000000 bug. a son is elected me. my bride. he had to be

there. what is good for that? their benefit, their rights, that interests that has to be my priority. and so what i had took the trip to russia and this was all the stakeholders was board. the idea was that we would improve our relationship with russia. and we would, you know, we have trading, it links with russia, we want to improve the trading links. we already were a pipeline. a gas pipeline was, was being planned 56 years back before i came to power. so we wanted to cement that contract and then we wanted to buy cheaper oil from, from russia, as well as wheat. 100000000 bargains, sundays of hon. 16000000 below the poverty line. 50000000 just above the poverty line. when the prices go up, when inflation bites in western countries, the only,

they're just ever dropping the standard of living in our country, people go below the poverty line, they're gonna have to square be the day. so my interest was the people of pakistan . and obviously this didn't go down one more now from the nation, still suffering the consequences of western intervention. our special coverage on afghanistan continues as we entered the final stage marking one year since nato's chaotic withdrawal. ah, today marks one year since britain brought his disastrous 20 year presence in afghanistan to a close living many of those it employed and his are promised that will relocate behind. oh,

oh oh, i want to go my hands. i go over it in a situation, it does a way to estimate for how long i i in a while. oh, tuition as possible in

we will do everything we can to ensure that those people get a package that they did on our message to those women and men is clear. there is a home for you in the united states. if you so choose, we'll stay with you just as you stood with. ah, the withdrawal is remembered is one of the darkest days in nathan's, history with critic saying, br sessions. american authorities should a complete failure to understand the situation on the ground. he's always, he's donald quarter with more a colossal failure by the world's most formidable military power. one year ago, joe biden pulled the plug on the u. s. his 20 year long, military occupation of afghanistan, i concluded, as timed and america's longest war. it's time for american troops to come home. the troops began to pack their bags. there was no need to rush after all us

intelligence had no doubts. there was time to spare. the bull could come on the pressure from the taliban in as little as 30 days and full to the extremist group within 90 days. but as the taliban advance showed no sign of abating washington began to realize it had not 90. not 30, but only a handful of days before the taliban would be at the capitals. gates. on august 15th kabul became the seat of power for these law mach emerett, of afghanistan. ah, before they knew what the americans were forced into the awkward position of having to cooperate with their decades old enemies to bring their people home. and this time they had reason not to drag their feet 1st on evacuation. we agreed that we

will continue to close our close cooperation to get people out as efficiently and safely as possible. we are currently on a pace to finish by august the 31st millions of dollars of military equipment left behind collaborators abandoned into the hands of the taliban. those 90 days were a figment of the imagination of a u. s. intelligence. and because of their critical mistake, u. s. troops, chaotically fled with their tails between their legs. ah, ah, let's not forget the subordinates of this us led coalition also reeled from the

defeat. the international withdrawal from afghanistan has been a disaster in terms of planning, execution, and consequences for the united kingdom slider interests. even if the exact point at which the taliban ascendancy became inevitable could not have been predicted with certainty, the special committee believes that greater cravings, and therefore a more proactive approach was warranty. in response to your scanty stance clearly where sitting trajectory for washington's closest ally the u. k, the political fallout was devastating. senior members of his party criticized both the decision to withdraw and the government's response to the rapid takeover of afghanistan by the taliban ministers have acknowledged being taken by surprise. and johnson and his foreign secretary dominic rob were forced to cut short their vacations to return to london as the afghan capital cobble was taken. johnson's predecessor, teresa may suggested the prime minister had hoped on a wing and

a prayer, it'd be all right on the night in afghanistan and warned the u. k. now faces an increased terror threat due to the taliban and things were no better for the administration at the forefront of it all. the survey conducted before the u. s. military pullout was completed, also finds that 69 percent of the public says the united states mostly failed in achieving its goals in afghanistan. the public is also broadly critical of the biden administration's handling of the situation in afghanistan, 42 percent, say it has done a poor job. decades went by trillions of dollars were spent. nearly 200000 people were killed all for the most well funded, most well equipped military in the world to fall before a rag tag. insurgency, that in the end was more determined to win. as always, you can find all the latest news out basin plenty more on our website r t dot com. thanks for joining us here in austin nash. ah,
