a group when you, when you're speaking with dr. numbness listening, who is a school. so hopefully we will go through a little bit. lucille included with our, we're glad that the russian federation did what he needed to do to keep keep our, the inspectors are safe. that you and acknowledge is russia's role in ensuring the secure here. but just to make watchdog at the international team assess this as delta ology nuclear power plant statement comments made continued attacks on the facility by ukrainian forces. that's according to local official, donald trump, of the pike republicans and the representative extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic, joe biden, to take the harsh swipe trouble by another rival republicans ahead of mid term

elections. and that's as new evidence proposed to show that by the administration itself is getting bogged down in scandal. pressing the big tech to stamp out opinions that challenge the mainstream narrative. the u. s. troops who participated in the hasty withdrawal from afghanistan last year. right now we're going to receive award that announcement by the pentagon. know how to renewed criticism of america's longest war. the end of hollywood, india is traditional, akin the film industry faces wide spread to satisfy satisfaction on the domestic market, sparking concerns among phil make as an active that their business could crumble. here at our tea in the program. we look at the claims with all right, spending the glow from the heart of the russian capital d r t international from all of us here at moscowitz. great to your company today. so the un has

acknowledged russia's commitment to ensuring the safety of the international atomic energy agencies team the embattled zacko orgy nuclear power plant that is amid continued attacks on the facility and its surroundings by ukrainian forces. and that is all according to local officials. russian defense minister today stated that the ukrainians group of sub masters try to capture the station in order to use the mission as a human shield. we are glad that the russian federation did what he needed to do to keep the keep our, the inspectors are safe. and that statement came after a group of round 60 ukranian troops try to take control of the nuclear plant early thursday morning. this is, according to the russian ministry of defense, the i 18. i said it plans to maintain a permanent presence at the atomic facility and conduct further detailed analysis

of the shelling bat. meantime, russia has requested a meeting of the un security council, so that world powers will have to hear the conclusions of the i. a and i correspondent english down off is among the 1st journalists at the nuclear plant to report on the un teams visit. around me is arguably the biggest nuclear scare that the world has seen since the caribbean missile crisis between the soviet union, the united states. this is this upper raska nuclear power plant. you can see some of the reactive number one and 2 nuclear reactions and in fact, it is being shelled, relentlessly. and russia has been very much concerned and has been trying to draw the attention to this very big problem, trying to raise it to an international level. and finally, a special monitoring mission of the international atomic energy agency has paid a visit to the facility with quite

a scene here at the dap ross can nuclear power plant. he's special mission with the international atomic energy agency. i will see you can see him who can right beside the man you suit here. he's basically been playing, then he's being shown, the sort of extensive damage that's been dealt to the facility. we were able in these few hours to put together a lot of the furniture to key things i needed to see. i saw of your explanations were very high right here. next to me, you can see an, a u, a v, a combat drone that was down just days ago above these upper oscar nuclear power plant. if you very interesting details, i'm pointing to which side could have used this drone again. russia does not import any, but here, for example, you can have this little chip plate and everything that you see here. it is written

in english like you have parachute left wing and so on. so the russians, they simply don't use english language for anything military. it is very much out of the question and here does another piece another device, another piece of the drone. you can see that it is brand new. it is year 2022. so it is very, very new. this particular well thing, this particular drone has failed to do any damage to deal any damage to the facility because it had been down. but this is not the 1st time that things like this devices like that are being used against the facility. you can hear and see the water still dripping here because the shelling phase of them to have broken the pipes here and well, the personnel. they still haven't had time to fix them because well,

the shelling hadn't stopped this place was where the 1st mortar shells landed and hailed down upon the the rosco nuclear power plant. from phoebe downward, you can see the aftermath broken windows and this warehouse stands abandoned. it used to be producing liquid nitrogen, which is crucial to the functionality of the whole. so me, so plans now is rational and it is making basically the work of the whole facility. very difficult. we heard from an independent journalist on the war correspondent thomas roper, who says the shelling by ukrainian force as clearly shows that kiev did not want un experts to get to the nuclear facility, nor to assess the shelling damage. the interesting thing is they shelled in a guitar and the region in the morning when the, when the team didn't arrived. this also looks like you have tried to stop this in the last minute, but it didn't work as soon as the team arrived at the place. at this point. there

was no shelling anymore reported. so we have to see how key of where we have they are not really rational the, i'm not military experts, so they don't have to re clue about about weapons artillery and all this stuff. they are nuclear exports. so their job is to check with the, the station to power plant is is an order whether they are working well, whether there's danger from the technical side. that's why i'm not expecting very much information from them about the shelling because it's not their job and they don't have the ability for these. these are nuclear experts, not military experts. ah good davie with us today. and donald trump and the make america great again movement threatened the foundation of the united states. that's how he was president joe biden slammed republican conservatives in his prime time, addressed to the nation on thursday. ahead of the looming mid term elections. too much of what's happening in our country today is not normal. bagger republic is

looked at american c, current agent, darkness and despair. they spread fair and lies lies tall for profit and power. donald trump, with a migraine republicans, represent an extreme ism that threatened the very foundations of our republic. well, the theme of jail, biden's remarks was the soul of america. and he used his remark to acco much of what you've been saying and read the week that he refused to republican. those who are supporting donald trump the make america great. again, republicans were mag republican, being a threat to american democracy. he echoed words that he's been used. this seems to be the drumbeat from the democratic party. well, joe biden faces very low approval rating. there's a lot of unhappiness in the country with the economy. with other issues, it seems like the democratic party is focusing on this notion that republicans are

a threat to democracy, are fascist, etc. here's some of what's been said. it's not just trump, it's the entire philosophy that underpins the i'm going to say something. it's like semi fascism. it is one of the most extreme agendas that we have seen. and it is a part of the. it is the stream part of the republican party. they are threatening political violence and they are attacking or a democracy where at a serious moment our nation's history. the mag republicans don't just threaten our personal rights and economic security threat to our very democracy. they refuse to accept the will of the people. they embrace, embrace political violence. they don't believe in democracy during his remark, joe biden made some interesting comments. one thing he says that political violence has no place in america now. many who are familiar with the history of the united states may beg to differ. we've seen the united states backing up who's

insurgencies, terrorists, and other forces across the world. so this idea that the united states and political violence simply don't go together. that was one remark he made now bite and said it was a big, complicated country. and any remarks it's worth noting now that as he was leaking, we could actually hear the sound of protesters that were attempting to disrupt the speech. 2 in 5 americans believe it is possible that there could be a 2nd civil war in the united states of america, there could actually be some kind of armed conflict as a result of the heated divisions in the country. now, many are looking at joe biden and the rhetoric that he's using to describe his primary political opponents and saying is any kind of throwing gasoline on the fire . now, 66 percent of americans say that the country has become more politically split and that they are pessimistic about the future of the country. now, many people are pointing to one of the most deep ironies of the speech because joe

biden used the word democracy. people looking over the role of the f, b i and the way that they conducted themselves in relation to the hunter biden laptop scandal. people are seeing on the, the, the intelligence agencies of the united states and, you know, the, the policing agencies and security services at a federal level and the way they're operating and asking maybe the threat to democracy isn't coming from trump, who is now out of office and his supporters who maybe it's coming from an administration that seems determined to control political discourse. joe biden is making that classic mist we see from democrats, which is conflating the us government with the united states, their entire interfering with our lives domestically and their interfering with the lives of other people internationally. so it's not that people who are on the right are people libertarian. don't like america. we love america. we just hate the american government. and also all the state governments that interfere with our lives,

both on the left and on the right. proven striving to represent the views among their followers only rather than the views among the people. and you can see that in so many different areas, whether it's debates over gender and pronoun whether it's debate over freedom of speech, whether whatever of or whether it's debate over intrusive police, or whether it's a bait over war. americans want to see less government in all areas. we want to see a downsizing, the military industrial complex. when the american troops withdrawn from countries overseas, we want to see an end of the war on drugs and violent policing. but on both the right, unless we want to see this. and so there is a great deal of inherently unity among the american people. but among the political parties we're seeing and tear intentional attempts at disunity. and well, joe biden, brands maga republicans is a threat to democracy. his administration has allegedly been pushing big tech companies to silence claims and opinions. the challenge mainstream narratives that's according to recently published e mails,

reporters showing communication between the president's office and the social media rep sing pleading that of facebook. i wanted to make sure you saw the steps we took just this past week to adjust policies on what we're removing with respect to misinformation, as well as steps taken to further address the disinfo doesn't other emails portal, they show the government asking social networks to delete certain pages and facilitate the creation of new ones though with approved content of particular concern, what posts about covert and vaccines with that content scrutinized by a 3rd party to have the authority to reduce visibility. meanwhile, 3 top house republicans have pushing legislation to stop by the officials from using their positions to influence social media censorship. the lawmakers say that from covered 19 to the president's son hunter and his laptop, the car administration labels anything but doesn't fit that narrative as dis,

information. or dr. michael rectum was the author of google archipelago. so the white house you use is big tech for its own interests, while shutting down the opposition the government itself using these big tech monopolies to infringe upon political and other speech and basically shut down all opposition. now we're talking about direct assaults on the 1st amendment of the united states. that is the freedom of speech. we're always told, you know, these are private companies. they can do whatever they want. they can censor, you know, you don't have to allow somebody in your house to speak things you don't want to hear. but they've proven over and over again that they're actually appendages of the state. that they are state apparatuses that are doing the bidding of the state . in particular, the unit party controlled state, the democratic party controlled state that they work for. so they are not private

enterprises, strictly speaking, they're actually part of the state and they're being wielded by the state to do its bidding. the legacy of 2 decades of us occupation of afghanistan, of course, all in the name of the war on terror. and our special coverage or nazi we examine the consequences of the policies in the central asian country and show the tragic stories that unfolded a year ago. and the chaotic pull out of us forces no nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all the history. with

during the 2 decades of war, around $50000.00, the afghan interpreters provided assistance for us led forces. despite washington's pledges to ensure their safety, thousands of them was left behind. and now they remained fearful of retribution from the taliban. we spoke with one of those translators. i told him we were in real trouble. we're afraid that we might be killed because we worked the americans . this reason is enough to be punished when helpless. there's no hope for us with

jacob, according to our own assessment, to what i heard from other people around 60 percent of people, most of them interpreted, have been betrayed and abandoned by the u. s. in afghanistan, when the taliban took over, there was chaos, and people add port. those interpreters who had fall that cases for evacuation was stranded in the middle of the road. we said several e mails to american officials, we worked with them, but they've not responded yet. ah, with that kind of make them, i think those who've left us behind in afghanistan a just hiding as a fit for their own lives. look at our misery. we can't get a job here in afghanistan because we have a biometric system of identification here. if we apply for job anyway, we would immediately be recognized as afghan interpreters to work for the americans in the past.

a blue 80 minutes. it could be cooled by the taliban authorities. we're in how, but the taste and nice guy by we have no normal life and it will continue that. wait until we dead. i pray for a miracle. maybe one day we will manage to free this country. well meanwhile, law, all of the u. s. soldiers who participated last year is evacuation from afghanistan and out set to receive a military award. that as, as the one year anniversary of the hasty us withdrawal has renewed some criticism of america's longest warren history. no other military could have protected so many lives under such challenging circumstances in such a short amount of time. not just because of our air lift or our logistics capabilities, but most of all because of the immense compassion, skill and dedication of american service. members, excuse me, just a bit of background on the issue are nearly 200 people were killed, including 13 us service members amid the violence and chaos and cobbled main

airport in the final moments of the withdrawal. in august, last year, several people were filmed, falling to their deaths, desperately trying to flee the country by holding onto that military plan right there. roger was taking off. we did here earlier in the program from retired us air force, lieutenant colonel. karen, korea, koski, who says the by the ministration has been particularly sensitive to criticism about this. if you this withdrawal was very poorly planned, very hasty. it was under duress and it was not particularly well done. the thing that they're proud of the thing the united states is proud of is the massiveness of the air lift they compared to other air lifts that we've done. and it's, it's a massive amount of aircraft. but in terms of the operation, the leadership, the military leadership on the ground, any political leadership from the pentagon or elsewhere, we didn't have any of that. it was a shocking, actually,

quite shocking and embarrassing situation last summer. and i think the administration is quite sensitive to the criticism because it's well justified. the pentagon itself didn't believe it was over, even though the politicians and the rest of the country knew it was ok. so i put the blame directly on the fed. a gun in the fact that they're patting themselves on the back with this award. i is really almost ludicrous and it's in is sad. it's very sad. and those are just some of the stories that have emerged in the fall out of the western withdrawal from afghanistan. you can find many more of our special reports on this issue via r t dot com, including previous reports that were broadcast in recent weeks. for now, a man has been detained as authorities say, he pointed a gun, argentina's, vice president, christina a coach nor, and pulled the trigger with a weapon. reportedly loaded with 5 bullets, did not fire and failed. assassination attempt has been caught on camera. a police

quickly took the suspect into custody. he's been identified as a 35 year old brazilian man who lives in argentina. the countries president called the attack, quote, the most serious incident to happen since we were covered democracy, the un humanitarian aid branch. unicef, as sounded the alarm over a rising crisis, and war torn yemen now saying, but 23000000 people there require essential supplies. the peter scott dig deeper into how the western establishment media has been continually changing its rhetoric about the conflict depending on well which of its governments were allied with which side overshadowed by the war ukraine. the ongoing bloody conflicts in yemen and the world's worse humanitarian crisis. have slipped even further down the news agenda. unicef humanitarian situation report for the 1st half of this year. it

paints a pretty bleak picture. children and sudan, yemen, syria and lebanon, are at risk of facing the impact of acute food insecurity. with yemen at the highest alert level. now the saudi lead war in yemen has devastates at the country this year alone, the number of people needing food assistance is well over 23000000 over half of whom are children. now 2018. so a huge escalation in the conflicts with the saudi coalition conducting dozens of indiscriminate s t writes killing thousands of civilians, but that didn't stop the u. s. on the u. k. from continuing to pump billions of dollars of funding and military support into saudi arabia or the economist from painting a rather rosy pitcher of his leader, crown prince mohammed in salma. look under the leadership of mohammed vin solomon. the young crown prince. the countries changed. the prince's ambitious plan aims to attract 13000000 visitors by 23rd doubles the current number boats us

relations with the country quickly solid after the brutal assassination of saudi journalist jamal a short g. and i would make it very clear. we were not going to sell more weapons to them. we were going to make them pay the price, in fact, make them a pariah, that they are. there is very little social, redeeming value in the present government of saudi arabia. well, certainly tough words, but they didn't seem to be followed by equally decisive action. only 17 saudis were sanctioned over the murdy and visa restrictions imposed on an of the 76, certainly not a pariah by any stretch of the imagination. but m b, s, and biden aren't exactly best buddies either. we've been saw man ignoring biden's colds and refusing to turn on the oil tops. when he came cap hunt, the economist says also changed his choosing somewhat thoughts perhaps the greatest threat to the crime prince might be m b s himself. he's shown himself to be ego driven, aggressive and impulsive. and perhaps it's only so long before he makes

a fake home. it's judgment, but a saudi us relations, falster sighs with his eastern eye, china a being gradually on the up bilateral trade between the 2 countries dwarfing dots with the us, china, and saudi arabia, our comprehensive strategic partners in recent years with the commitment and guidance from the leaders of both countries, china, saudi arabia relations have grown robustly with fruitful cooperation in various areas. we are ready to work with saudi arabia to keep cementing mutual trust and deepening cooperation, and further advance our comprehensive strategic partnership. now, while by didn't will be keeping a close eye on the budding bro bonds between china and saudi arabia as a vice influence in the middle east. maybe it's worth remembering that the situation, yemen goes with every day. the world health organization has warned that a major health crisis is likely to follow

a recent devastating floods in pakistan on which i've already affected more than 30000000 people. now it's fear that waterborne diseases could spread rapidly under the current conditions as unprecedented monsoons resulted in quote, a 3rd of the country going under water that's according to pakistan's. i find that officials, they also called a series climate catastrophe. rescue operations are still ongoing, but for now here on our team to national, we have this report from a local judgment. at least 13rd of august on is under flood water. as many as 27 people have died alone during last 24 hours since mid june. still now. nearly 700 people have died in different incidents. so flood across park you saw on earth many as 1500 paths enjoyed in different incidents of floods. now there is also allowed me to port that among the dead. there are at least 400 children,

were also killed in law dressed and robin robin's habit for help. there are 4000 tourist who was tendered in one of the resort long valley. and last, still happen, still need to be rescued to the helicopter. my understanding is that the government is an auction, and law students are going to be rescued sooner or later. the overall picture that he's developing focused on, suggest that at least in the soda machine province, the salt water has these up to 8 to 9 feet. that means hot, terrible, it has begun for the people to survive in this water. and the rescue oppression is really under, over in part of barcus on. and the authorities have not been able to reach to the affected people. partly because of a simple reason. because the lord networks have graphs. the bridges have glass and the number of the helicopters which are required, given the sure huge scale off off the flood flood operation that is less so far.

the help that is coming from the fairly can please, is a, is a, me go to in terms of the food supplies that box time is getting from the can do some from the turkey and some other countries. the u inspector journal is expected to reach and reach in pockets on the next couple of days. he and he will himself assess the scale of the damages that has, has been caused by the flood water. the climate change is one such leading factor. another factor is that the successful success of government have failed to build up the mega, mega dams because of which every year, the flood sweep over, everything that comes on the way it gives people, it destroy builder. and then it ends up in the ab and see something exactly what is happening right now in buckets on at least buck us on these nice tens of billions of us dollars. booty heavily dead people increase provinces. java on islam. bob

boy caught bollywood. that's a trending hash tag among indian social media uses saying they've grown rather dissatisfied with the traditional hindi film industry. the movement is sparking concerns among both filmmakers and actors. is it a temporary trend or the end of an era? here's our correspondent dungeon sharma. it shows was bollywood all the way for trend which is on for several months has recently picked up again taking on the all 100 year old industry. the anti bully with sentimental india's on a rise on more and more bollywood movies for week tim, to the calls for a boy court troll armies are going after actors or comments made by them from years ago are being pulled out and retrofitted to announce boy gods what really is going on? is bollywood losing its connection with its audience?

meet foam historian, gotham chin dominy, an expert who studied the evolution of cinema since the ninety's. could you deconstruct the boy? he would boy court trend that we are seeing. so reagan has a phrase and you know, it has to live its life and has to come to you. i think some of the questions which these trends are posting, like the plea of the audience. if you me, those are address hauser, then you'll see a change, but i fear of the oldest border with changes, unfortunately not active on the local or do more. i don't think it's room, but he hated to leaders. and he'll know delhi in, in dallas oldest and few left, a single screen cinema hold. people up pouring in on a weekday afternoon. most cinema buffs here are unaware of the online boy or trend big. the boycott trend didn't hold any value to compare the real population with
