the international atomic energy agency team arrives in depth all city to examine europe's largest nuclear power plant and made reported shelling by key f emission. aims to prevent possible nuclear dock. while european powers speak about africa, nations facing starvation, only 2 cargo ships. cara ukraine's. we'd have actually gone there as the other ships go to some of the world's richest nation. and if the u. s. approved and other $4000000000.00 worth of military aids to ukraine and taiwan, it's stopped. it's free at home, coven testing, due to lack of funding. the news for me will raise to show you the entire new steam here at moscow. a very will welcome to you with saucy international reduced out the program with the very latest of elements from the ukraine conflict. a team of experts now from the

international atomic energy agency has arrived in supper orgy city. located adjacent to that of the nuclear power plant. the agency wants to create a permanent mission at the site and assess the state of the facility after repeated attacks. mission, typically the emissions that seeks to prevent a nuclear accidents and the reserve at these important the largest, the biggest nuclear power guns in europe, the, the whole of europe, not only in ukraine. so this is what we are concentrating the agencies mission and comes a bit numerous ukrainian attacks on a nearby city of antarctica dog as well as the nuclear power plant. it's some the one drone attack to a city administration building in another local official say, no one was heard. while another drone was shot down off the firing on the nuclear

plot, waste facilities that's according to the russian military. now the visit comes after another global watchdog out of i'm misty international, came under fire fruits criticism of kiev and had to back track. early this month, they published a report accusing the ukrainian military of violating humanitarian law, claiming it was putting civilian lives at risk by placing its military assets deliberately next to civilian infrastructure. the report on human shields sparked fury in kiev, which led to amnesty issuing an apology for doing its job. former pentagon atlas michael maloof told us here at r t earlier that the investigation must be impartial. otherwise you will tentative would be a catastrophe. it's, it's very western dominated, as you can imagine. so it's going to be, it's gonna take a western more western perspective on things and, and that seems to be the crux of this entire crisis in the 1st place is east versus

west that i. but i'm hoping that they give a more impartial analysis of the safety, the upkeep of the facility. because the, the alternative would be very, very, very serious for all of europe and perhaps the world because of the radiation leaks. and it's really imperative that the inspectors ensure that their, that leaks are minimized and that there is no way that and, and to encourage ukrainians, especially this to quit firing on it. it just makes logical sense. i mean, i, the hypocrisy of, of the ukrainian statement. it's just a numbing it's. it's amazing and i think that this is just something that they stop showing it naturally. it's going to lessen radiation concerns.

i started on bass now where according to local authorities, up, one civilian was killed and 4 injured after artillery. hit a 5 story residential building in the donuts republic. the ukrainian shells directly had one of the apartments, according to russian officials. meanwhile, on the eve of the new academic year, the russian side is implementing a set of measures to protect schools in the area. means i'm auto remind culture of reports from the scene after the latest attack in the donuts republic. this is the result of a direct hit by ukrainian artillery against this 5 story apartment building. i'm standing in what used to be the kitchen, that's the bathroom, has the living room over there at the apartment now it's completely destroyed. fortunately, the owner of this apartment was at work. when this strike took place, his life was saved. however, at least one person was killed and 4 were wounded as

a result of this ukrainian nationalists artillery attack or harder social. hm. yeah . i'm like, i wasn't here. i came home from work, looked at my apartment. and so basically that's it. i don't have an apartment any more. if i were at home, i would have been killed. the attacks are happening every day or change the driver who was killed right here on this spot. who was 62 years old. his name was vladimir. he was here delivering furniture and his life was abruptly ended by a ukrainian shill. this is a spot where he took his final breath and these are the kinds of shell fragments which was war has you. my wife was near the shop when she was injured by an explosion artillery rounds. 3 fragments hid her. people here were rescued, but the driver could no longer be saved as a is our everyday life. now,

the worst thing here. a silence. you started tense up. you know, this is the bomb shelter hall, the local administration employees have been forced to hide here on a daily basis. i mean, they need to be here all the time in order to continue serving the citizens of the latoya sca my. they have to be working from here in order to not endanger their lives. there may be a lot of that as horrible. regular strikes occur every day, almost constantly. we sit here, we also work here. it is unrealistic to go out right now. according to the locals, ukrainians, who are shilling this territory for 3 days straight. it's still not clear what their target was, but what we do know for sure is that there is a school right there. there is a, a football pitch for

a kids come out to play. right now it's quiet here in north royd sca. but the residents are ready to hide in bomb shelters at any time because artillery strikes by ukraine can begin at any given moment. room on call for have archie don't as the people's republic. well, western officials are pleased with attempts to battle starvation and the horn of africa, as well as in war torn yemen, as one ship carrying wheat from ukraine. dr. djibouti on tuesday, while the other headed to yemen to crane's grain is getting out and it's getting to the world sangree. i think the hopeful thing about what is just happened with the docking of the ship and fee on this and for free the up in somalia is it it gives us somehow to step in the right direction. however, ortiz, donal quarter gives us more and why only 2 ships about for countries in real need.

and the rest are sailing off to which countries brave commander, the un chartered ship carrying ukrainian weights to east africa. it's finally arrived in djibouti. and since august 14th, the western mainstream media has been hyping it up to no and the united nations chartered ship brave commander will depart ukraine for africa in coming days after it finishes loading more than 23000 metric tons of wheat in the ukrainian port of p n e a u n. official, said the vessel, the 1st specially chartered by the u. n. s. world food program to unblock food shipment stuck after rushes. invasion of ukraine will head towards your beauty, from where the grain will be transported to ethiopia, the restarting of food aid from ukraine could mark a major turning point in the fight against worsening global hunger. we heard about it again on the 16th of august, and then again on the 18th of august and 2 days after that, the un secretary general praised its mission as well. so moving to see in the stumble, the w. f. p. ship brave commander, loaded with tons of ukrainian wheat,

destined for much needed hunger relief in the horn of africa. i salute all those involved in this amazing humanitarian operation. at long last, the ship made landfall on august 30th and was as if hunger on the continent was about to come to a definitive end. it took 2 weeks to travel here from southern ukraine. the suite is meant to feed $1500000.00 people in ethiopia for a month, but it is not enough for a country facing several humanitarian challenges. food security experts call it a drop in the bucket for the vast needs in the worst hit horn countries of somalia, kenya and ethiopia, the nation where this 1st shipment is going, oh wait a minute. why did all of east africa only get one ship if they're so desperate for food? un records show that ukrainian grain went to other places as well? ireland, greece, italy, countries that are not exactly hunger stricken while ukrainian officials are wiping their hands clean of that. since after all, the free market decides the destination for the cargo has been negotiated between

the supplier and the buyers, and they are totally commercial activities. we don't decide where it goes. it is a free market. however, not everyone spying that alibi. 34 ships with grain went off odessa. only one went to africa, the other to europe and usa, ukraine as rescuing nobody from hunger. only one out of 34 ships exporting grain from ukraine went to africa. so much for the western fake concerned about hunger in poor countries. all that media attention for a single ship and the plight of starvation and africa. was it all really because the west is so concerned about starving africans, or was it a big p r study to boost calves popularity around the world? were the 1st place, the blame this on russia and isn't as actually, of sir, was the food crisis has been around for a long, long time. this is cynical,

and this is todd o, the geopolitical o propaganda come from united states in european countries and that watches very carefully watched policies of vitamins, gratian and new new africa strategy, which i just wrote about. the secretary state lincoln's trip to africa last week. and is still with hypocrisy and for the french prime minister is wanting citizens. they may be facing rolling blackouts in their homes. this winter as, as the energy crisis grows of anti russia sanctions. when you want to, we are producing less electricity, and there may be moments if it's very cold, where we can have a problem to supply electricity. in such case, we'd cut off by a rotation neighborhood by neighborhood for no more than 2 hours, one, the safe and common made gas problems. notice that it'll stop providing a leading french utility company with any more natural gas. the cut off comes off

of that company, fail to pay for supplies, transferred in july. i gas from says the flow won't be resumed until the french phone pays its bill in full lap. prompted paris, the claim. moscow was using energy as a weapon. we discussed all this with economist and political commentator. i could hammer quarter this justifies because if the european tell them we don't pay you, we would pay euro's post euro's we freeze right away. so basically not paying. so who is, who would supply anything? when he told you, you won't get paid, i mean, that's totally normal and death. and then europe is not the. the old, the only client forgets from they can sell the gas wherever they want in the world . and india and china, they demand the guess they want the ghost, they pay for the guess. so it's totally normal that you don't supply anything anymore. the people don't, don't,

don't pay comes as fears about power shortages have grown. it's after the russian energy, john gas, from this week stop to gas supplies, to germany, you via the north stream, one pipeline, due to a shuttle 3 day maintenance project. now, that adds the compounding problem in europe, which are seen inflation rates rising. even going about 9 percent, largely driven by soaring energy prices and faced with sky road. if you are skyrocketing energy bills, european businesses have been struggling to find solutions. for example, the one italian ceramics company offering its employees to sleep less and start earlier. the firm's boss is saying that would help to reduce electricity costs for lighting the facility at night. the workers of also be known to use less air conditioning. a surrounding sol traditionally viewed as one of the more energy intensive businesses. meantime elsewhere in italy, several sicilian fishing marinas of it out strikes as fuel price is continued

a saw while prime minister mario drug he refuses to subsidize energy costs with countries. newly announced aid packages. the rising cost of fuel has all but destroyed the italian fishing industry, threatening marinas up and down the coast with bankruptcy. santino, a damo, the president of the italian national fishing association in mazata del vital declared that all 70 of the marina's fishing boats will stop their activity indefinitely. and we heard from several of the towns, anglers about their struggles. well august us, we should in the we have resisted the increase in petrol, but now we are really tired and we can't take it any more. all the prices have risen, but especially fuel. and so we have decided to turn off the engines and not go fishing anymore, because now we have more expenses than revenue it on. there's a lot of demand for fish, but we just can't go out to see any more because petrol cos way too much? was the sun that you know, we can no longer work with these fuel price increases. petrol is too expensive. we

have all stocks with this system is useless to go to work. we cannot even pay the expenses. we are in crisis. no one is helping us. the government should intervene, so we could pay a little less for gasoline than the current prices as auto body of the boot. we are experiencing a nightmare due to the increase in the price of fuel. we are almost ow banquet, you cannot go on with these prices. we are paying 5000 you as for petrol. and i tell you that before we paid 1500, even for us fisherman who have small bought the situation is becoming terrible. we are now ready to stop fishing for these increase in the price of fuel tied over to east africa. where in malawi, fuel is not just expensive, it's really hot to come by residents, they're even forced to purchase gasoline smuggled in from neighboring mozambique. malawi has been low on fuel since april than now. stations across the country are reporting the supplies are running dry. this commons as rising prices as the government struggling to pay for the critical import. some entrepreneurs, however,

are benefiting from the situation in reportedly smuggling stock into the country is selling it at a 50 percent premium to prices at the pump. and we did hear from an official in malawi, the 2nd largest city, who says that western sanctions imposed against russia has had a direct impact on the east african economy. so there must be a lot of people struggling with whether you know, time zones, dish or the real story the way the company we can just sit about the story. we invade the schedule, we are the ones that were actually on the, on the rush. and we spoke a week for sure, but i think they want to punish their also

punishing these mentioned like my life because they were trying to get to the us now where officials are stopping the free cupboard 19 at home testing program. citing a, a lack of funding this while enormous funds keep flowing to ukraine, anti wine in the form of, well, an additional $4000000000.00 of weapons. his art is caleb martin. while the united states seems to have plenty of money to throw around, there's just been congressional approval for biden sending $3300000000.00 to ukraine military aid. there's also been an armed sale to taiwan, but $1100000000.00, it's also been approved. so there's plenty of money being thrown around, but not for everything. ordering through this program will be suspended on friday, september 2nd,

because congress hasn't provided additional funding to replenish the nation stockpile of tests. now, there won't be any more at home cobit test. that will be available to people. this program has been going on since january the u. s. department of health has provided over 600000000 people with at home 3 toby tests. now, at this point, this program has been shut down due to lack of funding their stockpiling tests for what is being predicted as an autumn winter serge. in coven, now, many americans are reacting to this in somewhat of a negative way. wondering why are their concerns not being put 1st? they should just say the coven tests are weapons for ukraine, and there will be plenty of funding. they should call it tests for ukraine, because then the funding would be unlimited. midst record inflation, washington has spend some $50000000000.00 on weapons for ukraine since february alone, while seizing all cove in 1900 relief funding and targeting social welfare benefits

for millions of americans. now this isn't so totally surprised the other people are many were familiar with the patterns of us spending of observe these kind of actions. for example, you look at the congressional discretionary spending from the year of 2021, half of the $1.00 trillion dollars went to military affairs. whereas less than 9 percent went to public health. 2022 has been a rather top year for average american. there have been rising gas prices rising energy costs rising cost of food. we now have the federal reserve saying that americans should expect some pain in the future. others talk of at this point, job cod ahead. but the d. c elite seems more concerned about an international agenda. hostility toward russia and china. then about the concerns facing average american that seems pretty clear. the last leader of the soviet union mikhail gorbachev has died. 91 year old passed away in moscow, central hospital after

a long illness. just for a moment, we look back. it is legacy here on oxy. the who's? who's got a much offer over hold the soviet union's foreign policy by introducing that of the new political thinking doctrine, which thought relations with the western board about the end of a costly cold war. a gorbachev called for the well to be seen as united and wealth independent instead of divided. so the balance of interest of different nations is a way of solving international problems and former german ambassador to russia early your constitution. it's says go to put your, played a significant role in shaping europe's recent history. he was willing to establish a new relationship between

a reformed russia and the west. and that was recognized by west and lead as some of them are still alive, where his partners in the eighty's and ninety's. but still, we remember what influence this change of russia of soviet union, russia brought about to international relations. look at the international agreements on the reduce of nuclear weapons, unification of germany, and many more things. so he has a place in the history of europe. but the outcome didn't turn out as rosy as gorbachev had envisioned a nato's military. bach expanded to the eastern conflicts was seen in post soviet countries and other consequence. some alleged from his overseen the collapse of the ussr. he's not have the current ongoing crisis in ukraine. now those and other

consequences of the fall of the soviet union have been largely absent from the mainstream media reports remembering gorbachev in their headlines today. though we also heard from a gorbachev a long time chief english language interpreter, pavel, a polish jenko, who says the soviet leader was known for his ability to listen even to those maintaining an opposing opinion. well, she is a very authentic person. the way she looked and acted publicly was exactly the way she was. there was no difference between the public persona and the individual that i was really close to, i must say for so many years she was open, she was warm, she knew how to talk to people. she understood dignity, as you always respected people with different views. and she was

always ready to listen to listen to people who were sometimes very different from both ideologically in other ways. but at the same time, she preserved his own authenticity, his conviction, his views. and i said, in addition to that, of course it's personal rules and choose being snow authentic or we're all these years. well, it's good to have your company today. thanks for joining us or an aussie international just for a moment. looking back now and mocking one year since the sudden withdrawal of western forces from us. ah . so i can celebrate the 1st anniversary from the

country on tuesday with festivities and fireworks on display as well. a taliban support has commemorated a retaking control following 2 decades of a war and an occupation which is estimated to have claim the lives of at least 200000. the taliban government has declared august the 31st that of a public holiday. now, one of the very last afghan detainees held at the u. s. prison at guantanamo bay was, as i don't know how to ruin ghoul recently fried however, after a decade and a half in custody reprieve. that's a, a non profit organization of international lawyers fighting against human rights abuses, welcomed his release. o kline i saw de la harun ghoul, his has been released from guantanamo after 15 years imprisoned without charge or trial. i saw this finally free and able to rebuild his life with his family,

who have waited so long to see him. of course, washington created guantanamo bay prison in cuba, right after $911.00. its purpose was to hold suspects linked to al qaeda all the taliban. and many of his inmates have been held on, well, the inmates that held without formal charges and many of them without even the legal power to challenge that detention we'll be heard from former guantanamo in may to us. i don't know how to cool about his 15 years behind bars that without trial. ah, the americans have their own laura in one ton of my bait. they believe they can arrest any one from any way. that is then might ah, it is a long story to mentally. i was shocked. although they was agreement train the afghan government and the u. s. in 2006, the no afghan would be taken to once on my bay. they never respect to the agreement

. at that time, prisoners were being released from one ton of my bay, but in june 2007, i was sent that mental stress was always part of our life because of solitary confinement, leaving you at an abandoned place for several days. sleep deprivation was the worst thing i faced and still today i can't sleep peacefully, no way to hide why they would doing all this. they might have reasons for that. ah, let's go to them. so 10 years, man, it was not like 10 days, 10 weeks, or 10 months, 10 years, i was not given access to a lawyer to fight my case. ah,

was it as part of them, the war was over, the u. s. army had left afghanistan, according to the geneva convention, prisoners will, must be released after the war is over and peace prevails. my question is if they wanted to use one ton of my by for justice and why did their legislatures like in congress approve a law to keep a prisoner that for an unlimited time? is that justice to keep a prisoner without proving his crime in a court? one of the top american military generals once said that they will give the worst torture to the prisoners, a montana a by said they would never for the rest of their lives. after they were released, i have not seen a single prisoner less than 4 seats. a person that was brought in at the age of 22 . now he's 42. so don't talk about justice, but it was just cruelty in one side of my bay. ah . load it, the psychological effects of detention will remain with me for years. whenever i

talked to my family on the phone, they would tales of death, sorrow, and pain in the family. it was the biggest challenge for each prisoner that to face it alone, with no shoulder to cry on. prison itself is a horrible place. i would say that if you just live in a prison, that is less than the torture you face. it's beyond your imagination. you lose all hope, but we're muslims, and we believe that one day you will be released day. the americans plan something bad for you. but that wisdom is nothing against the wisdom of god. yeah. honest on one year on you can read much more about that and much more detailed analysis on our website auto dot com also try to check out that of the op ed section. ah ah

ah ah, the 2nd world war i think 2 millions of people. during the conflict, the balance of power was held by the leaders of 3 nations. the united kingdom, the united states, and the u. s. s. on march

the 31st. 1945. a british royal air force plane lands in crimea with a very important passenger, the british prime minister's wife, clementine churchill, boot bob daughter, cattle a year. bill preposition, she has shared with me. you see, you believe both critical, mostly this year. yes. panella, she does. she have to.
