10:02 pm
shall residential areas of enter goldar, where europe's largest nuclear power plant is located. that's according to officials in the wider is upper osha region who say the attack left at least 9 civilians injured with 2 of them in serious condition. and that a good story say, a number of apartment buildings were hit in cars that ablaze with kiev forces using american made whole search to target civilian areas around the city. local officials believe this trying to disrupt a plan visit to the area by an i a e. a delegation, while ukrainian authorities have accused russia of the attack. official say, a recent attack on the power plant itself was foiled by russian troops who managed to shoot down a ukrainian kamikaze drone. we heard from the chairman of the we are together with russia movement, vladimir rogue of who believes it's not just keep that should be held accountable. door store freeze for you to just look at these attacks as landscape attempts to
10:03 pm
disrupt the arrival of the international atomic energy agency. and also revenge a local residence for their desire to reveal the truth about what is happening. because they wrote an open letter to the representatives of the agency and then signed it so they could be no doubt that this is the peoples. well, a huge number of residents of zeros you region are asking the agency to investigate the situation. so the piece more use in recent days, the number of attacks has been off. the scale of the nuclear power plant is the main target of the landscape terrorists. and they themselves are engaged the nuclear terrorism. here they do this with the encouragement of the west london, washington of warsaw should be held responsible for the attacks on the plan does accomplish cisco. because the weapons that he have uses our weapons produced by these countries who were trapped inside our houses and could not get out. the militia were firing heavy machine guns. this is our building where the classes took place all the way to the end of the street. so, so it was impossible to escape the city. god knows that the effect of people have done nothing wrong. so go to discuss, says, let's cross lived
10:04 pm
a can stone from the hamilton coalition to stop the war. we see more and more evidence of ukraine using western weapons to target residential areas in russian controlled regions. what are the reasons for such attacks on civilians? did we lose you? i'm, i'm here, i'm here. okay, sorry. i just asked you a question. we see more and more evidence of ukraine using western weapons to target residential areas in russian controlled regions. what are the reasons for such attacks on civilians? ah, the civilians should not be attacked to do so. in war is a violation of the geneva convention. ah, however, my colleagues and i in the peace movement here in canada, we regard the war in ukraine as a nato proxy war. and we believe that there's
10:05 pm
a lot of evidence to show that the war is directed from nato control rooms and command rooms and through advisors on the ground. canada, for example, has special forces already on the ground inside of ukraine, and probably they are in the role of advisors as well. and judging by nato's previous behavior in former nato war, such as in afghanistan and iraq, the libya, yugoslavia, there isn't much care given much priority given to protecting civilians in fact. and those wars, nato targeted civilians and killed millions and turn the 10s of millions more into refugees. so in this nato proxy war and ukraine are targeting civilians, is par for the course. it's the way they operate. you ask, well, what are some of the reasons for such attacks? and i think there are few reasons. one is that they want to demoralize the,
10:06 pm
the local population, they want to turn them against russia and the orange some cases as they did and syria, they use their proxy forces. nato uses its proxy forces to attack civilians and then to blame the opposing side in the case of russia. in this case, in russia and previously in syria, the assad government false attacks false flag attacks. and it's mostly american, provided how it serves and rocket launchers that are being used to carry out these attacks. and the u. s. is not stopping it's supplies, it's actually expanding them. why do you think that is? well, the u. s. has been behind us and canada and britain behind the qu, in 2014 and key f. and since then, they have urged instigated, prodded the regime the cool government in kiev to attack its own
10:07 pm
civilians in the russian speaking population in the don bass for 8 years. and they tried to use their ships to create a war, or at least an incident in the straits of kurtz, by, as by trying to push their way into the sea of as off, despite international protocols. the u. s. empire is behind this, it's a hedge, a monic, empire. they are, they're, they're using ukraine as a proxy to try to do, to the russian federation. what they did to the yugoslavian federation. back in the 19 ninety's they hoped to, in this case, drag russia into a long and costly war. as in afghanistan, defeat russia divide and then divide it up. the better to gobble up. it's a component parts, so that's what the game is. and the, the attack by the west on ukraine resembles previous attacks throughout history against russia, and probably it, it likely will be defeated as well. in the last few months, kevin,
10:08 pm
scattered butterfly mines, banned by the geneva convention across on yes with russia even providing evidence to the un. but the international community is still silent. what are your thoughts on that? well, 1st of all, when we talk about the international community, it's more than thou west. the international cuban community has been speaking out of various countries against this war against the u. s. policy of trying to use ukraine. as our way to prod russia of china has called for a peace negotiations. other countries like india and south africa and the previous government and pakistan, they all said they didn't want to be dictated to by the u. s. so there is no international community. what they call the international community, and the western media is merely the western governments that are waging this war.
10:09 pm
and the media on here is in lock step with the, with the war makers. and they, they simply present the one side ukraine side uncritically. and people like us who want to talk about diplomacy, negotiations and a possible peace treaty. we can't hardly even get a letter to the editor in these newspapers or an interview in the mainstream media where shut out can sound from the hamilton coalition to stop the war. thank you. you're welcome. and now to don bass, where russian lead forces are continuing their offensive against ukrainian strongholds on this map, you can see where the most intense battles are taking place. one is on the outskirts of the deep cut from which don yeske official say ukraine has been showing residential areas of the republic. russian lead forces are now attempting
10:10 pm
to encircle the city. and also there's an offensive in the city of artem offs where russia says one ukrainian battalion last 60 percent of its personnel and was loss withdrawn from the front line. our tv or stone of reports from the region we're rushes. infamous wagner, group famous wagner group, our inaction. well, i guess i could say we are in the epicenter of the ukrainian counter offensive in the don bass. how come you might as well give, has been promising to go on the offensive for quite a while now. and in fact, they have been attempting to recapture the previously lost positions and villages for weeks here, but well, to no avail. this hail mary attempted a counter assault, in fact caused the ukrainians a few more strongholds last to accompany, as efficient in battle, as it is closed for outsiders. the wagner group, how do they think? how do they fight?
10:11 pm
how do they win our filming crew get an exclusive glimpse at the inner workings of the orchestra? ah ah slim of the donkey. we walked from it. we moved carefully and quietly in anticipation of the enemy may be in front of us. we came to the dam, we look around and ask for permission to continue. when we got approval, we move forward as a group. we pass may be 5060 meters and then we made contact. after it started, we moved back just right here. we lay down under the dam. the enemy was shooting us . they thought we were sitting at the bottom of the dam. they tried to kill us. they did not succeed. we got to come up. we were waiting for help in this house. in this help arrived from the left flank where there were snipers,
10:12 pm
a machine gun screw, arlena. they blocked the attacks holding the left side where the snipers were 1st step up. go with tanks and rockets. ukrainian troops blew a hole in the dam, hoping the flood will stop the musicians advance in its tracks. didn't work done along a federal law from of in this, on the 2nd floor there was a machine gun flooring out this photo no. downstairs there was a ukrainian soldier with a kalashnikov, and he was shooting us as we crawled across the wasteland. go off, we fell back. we caught artillery support and said they would help us. those guys knew what they're doing. they did a fantastic job. so get off to them, we could continue on with the notice of a burglar. several waves of reinforcements failed to keep the balance of power in ukraine's favor here. black body bags most in factory packaging serve as an indicator of how hastily the defenders had to abandon the village. his little friend enemies were hiding. higg this is their kalashnikov like machine gun. they
10:13 pm
treated their wounds head. there were about 6 people. it was in this charred cock i saw of ukraine's t. 72 tank is all that remains of what used to be a bastion of defense just outside the town of octomom. i make a done of reporting from the dumbass. i'd say the president of the central african republic is moving to draft a new constitution that will allow him to run for a 3rd term. that's after 6 years in power during which moscow has helped him bring stability to the country. one of the quarrels poorest countries, the country has been torn apart by civil wars for the past 9 years. and since 2018, when current president to, to a dera, asked moscow for assistance in fighting terrorism. there's been a change for the good. our correspondent policy layer visited the car's capital. bang we were, russian military instructors are training local police to fight terrorism and crime
10:14 pm
. a fall climb from how these streets looked a few short months ago. then bandits were on the loose and rebels, terrorized homes, rape, murder and theft were commonplace. now authorities are able to keep a lid on things, visit the anti gang police. they patrol and maintain control in the various neighborhoods of the city of monkey. as you can see, the faces aren't covered, it's important for them to be anonymous because the areas that they are taking all the neighborhoods from where they come. they looking for the gold weapons that are being smuggled drags any kind of stolen goods and waiting. they are keeping a tight lid, making sure that the city is functioning, and safe home returned to the central african republic at the end of 2018 after the president asked moscow for assistance. security officials are grateful. oh no,
10:15 pm
he would like to thank our partners from russia. i think that the russian instructors helped us a lot in our operational and tactical training. we've conducted a lot of exercises with russian instructors, were witnessing improvement, more stability in the country. it used to be a bit difficult to maintain stability because we only worked with the resources we had at that time. thanks to the allies who support us. now we can say that stability is gradually emerging in central african society. of the city is safer. now there is peace, the city is calm. there are only small bounded groups left to carry out raids, and we over lent leslie pursuing them. we are trying to protect the city from the res at these bonded groups commit, because this is all due to our russian allies who came to help us providing us with their forces and teaching us military tactics. and thanks to the funds they provide us the city a safe for now. we've now been traveling about 2 hours from the capital to a military base on the outskirts of the country. it's here we, russian,
10:16 pm
instructors have been training soldiers from around the country. first job of the russian military instructors was to unite the country's armed forces, exclaims chuckner pulled him over, shook the country needs a significant number of security, military and police personnel. they need to be trained equipped, deploy to remote areas for conducting operations. that's why the government of the central african republic was to have instructors who have a proven track record and can support the military and police. that number will be expanded to 3000 and the precious now and for the un security council to lift its arms and bang on the country. while moscow was instrumental in having a partially lifted, the blockade prevents the army from getting much needed weapon supplies. that the same time series and mercenaries continued to get weapons through their illegal channel. the situation may benefit certain western countries because it opens the door to the several as in security in the central african republic through supply and bandits with weapons. what's ironic is that some watch dogs have accused russia
10:17 pm
of bad behavior. frankly speaking, we see how different organizations send it in soldiers to the country, profit from the situation. they carry out business products, which are only possible in a week and unstable country. this is the simulation of the typical liberation of a village. here in the central african republic, as has been happening right across the country. the village is controlled by rebels and in approaching from different directions are the soldiers. some are engaged in fighting, some are detracting attention, and some i actually actively liberating the village itself. now the whole thing takes about 3 to 5 minutes. you can see over here the rebels acting as if they dying, and you can see the soldiers approaching from behind. this is exactly the scenario that has played out in tens of towns across the country and hundreds of villages. to the extent that 80 percent of the central african republic has now been
10:18 pm
liberated. d months and months of violence and instability, the central african republic is finally safe wirelessly, r t, monkey central african republic. across and east asia. china is on high alert and warns that it's ready to repel any provocations in the taiwan strait. after to us war ships passed through neutral waters there. earlier on sunday, washington claims its vessels were conducting routine transit in accordance with international law, and that it demonstrates its commitment to a free and open in the pacific region. china has set, attract the ships as they made their way through the straight with their military poise to respond. that's as ty wants. defense ministry says detected $23.00 chinese aircraft and 8 military vessels operating around the island as beijing's military operations continue. it's the 1st such case of american naval activity in the
10:19 pm
disputed area since u. s. how speaker nancy pelosi is controversial visit to ty pay earlier this month . they didn't consider taiwan a part of china and responded to policies trip with a serious of military exercises. here's a reminder of how the situation unfolded. how speaker nancy pelosi is planned to visit taiwan potential stop in taiwan, visiting taiwan, visiting 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 ends ah, think we are in an unpredictable moment. chinese military assembling at 6 different
10:20 pm
locations around the island us china relations are on shaky ground. with it seems to me, your main goal was to stir up trouble. thanks for bringing more problems to the world. america stands with taiwan. beijing announced it will impose, i'm specifying sanctions jonna 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 victor, guy vice president of angio, the center for china and globalization says through such actions, the u. s. shows a blatant disregard for china's jurisdiction in the region. the international law
10:21 pm
of the sea is governing behavior flies, the passage through the taiwan strait. it is open for navigation by civilians as well as naval ships, but they need to be subject to the jurisdiction of trying batch simple. i think the united states is misleading. the world, by sailing through the taiwan street as if, for example, the abiding by the passage was telling the whole world that they are not abiding by some passage. they want to do this as a demonstration to china and tell the whole world that it is regard trying those doers diction in the taiwan straits while the united states is doing everything. nancy pelosi is illicit to be the to taiwan is a series of provocations. their aim is simple. they want to cop out taiwan from china. this is in violation of china sovereignty and territorial integrity. and
10:22 pm
they will never succeed. while europe remains afflicted by an energy crisis facing soaring prices and high inflation in foreign policy, chief joseph brown still says that's the price your opinions 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 a sort to new record highs on friday. the year ahead contract for germany. electricity reached $995.00 euros per megawatt hours. while the french equivalent search pass 1130 euro's a more than 10 fold increase in both countries. since the last year, european media outlets are raising fresh concerns about the crisis. the latest edition of french satirical magazine,
10:23 pm
charlie had dough shows president mc crone collecting firewood, while saying 1st come, 1st served while britons, the mirror has called on you k leaders to finally do something about the rising prices, suggesting that some people 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. as energy prices, energy prices are of course, gigantic dish and there is no question that they are a terrible burden for consumers throughout europe. if i have no understanding why energy companies make such improbable profits in 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. different at that point natal additions have to intervene by lowering the taxes. if you questions younger students, our costs of living have risen in our household. that there are many ways you can
10:24 pm
save energy. for example, instead of heating your entire house to 20 degrees. so you can shut the door and keep other rooms where you are not spending much time, a bit cooler, continue to continue. they don't know. so meanwhile, hunger is foreign minister says european states are under the influence of quote, the liberal mainstream. and that's why they're imposing sanctions on russian energy just are fed up maybe like washington im, hungary does not want to negotiate any energy sanctions. i've relation to oil or natural gas. mitchell, i don't want to say that we're not alone in this. it may seem, there is political courage and political stability, but unfortunately not everyone shares these qualities. at the last meeting of the counselor at e, u foreign ministers, the issue of oil sanctions was discussed, and several colleagues came up and asked peter, are you against it? or can i replied, my friend, you know me, you can't say that you are in solidarity with me for oil, there is such incredible pressure from the liberal mainstream on those who tell the truth. and if there is not a certain level of political stability,
10:25 pm
the country will not be able to act independently, which is not freedom for the average german nor average britain or frenchman who can't he to his home this winter. some in europe don't regard. don't share mister barrels opinion either or as johnston is called the shared sacrifice. but everybody in britain who has the capacity to think knows that forrest johnson will not be part of that sacrifice. mister barrel of mister johnston, a 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, hey, all this talk of freedom of 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. ready in ukraine with the russians, and until people are ready to go out and protest and force the politicians to behave differently,
10:26 pm
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. more questions and answers a search warrant used by the f. b i to facilitate a search, a former us president donald trump, florida residence is itself raising eyebrows as more than half of the $38.00 page document is redacted. leaving questions about a political motive ahead of mid term elections. glad to see the f b i being fully transparent and releasing the warrant for trumps raid. i've seen plenty of warrens in my life, and this basically sums up the redacted gustavo f. b. i warrant issued for trump, and a search of trumps mar lago residence this month,
10:27 pm
accusing him of breaking the espionage act, saying he may have stolen classified documents concerning the u. s. nuclear program . however, trump denies the accusations and claims that bite and administration is trying to throw in jail, so he will be unable to run in the 2024 elections. unlike twitter users, many of whom are mocking the f b. i's approach the washington post, senior editor sees trump's ongoing legal blues as a potential prelude for civil war due to the increasing polarization of american society. earlier i spoke with arvin born the vice chair for the libertarian national committee, who thinks there might be political violence if trump is arrested. the ideal response to violence and an f b i rayed on somebody's home is as it could be seen perceived as the type of violence. the ideal response to violence is non violence and calm. but the more common response to violence is just more violent. so if, for example, trump is forcibly taken away and forcibly imprisoned,
10:28 pm
then it's going to be much more likely for his supporters to then respond with some other kinds of violence. it might be something similar to january thinks might be something totally different. but the idea is that if they are, they perceive their leader being taken away violently. they're going to be more likely to respond. and i would say right now, or at the level of a basically guaranteed national divorce, one that is currently ongoing and you're seeing it in all parts of life and education. you're seeing more and more people simply leaving the public school system, leaving the government school system and homeschooling and creating homeschool cooperative where they, where they, where they teach without government propaganda. and so you're already seeing a national divorce going on. now the question, who will. busy this national divorce turn into violence, and that is something that can very likely happen that would require one side to engage in violence. so for example,
10:29 pm
if trump is forcibly jail that that can could be very easily be a catalyst for violence. so a divorce, definitely violence, certainly very possible to russia in our official say that the enormous forest fires that have scored a vast area south east of moscow are no longer a danger to the public. as emergency workers have stopped the blaze spreading and are now extinguishing the smouldering remains. this is what's been happening for the past few weeks in the rise on region. mm hm.
