ramonica with a, with this our top headlines here, we're in our teens and national reports that nearly 20 explosions rock. and notice that our city right next to europe's largest nuclear power plant tool coming one day after the arrival of a new and nuclear inspection team. and it is raising concerns about military activity near the plot. the, the military activity and operations are increasing that part of the country. and these worries me hello. this is the impact of the show that landed right in this sense are all going to be at least 3

civilians killed and 3 injured from the continued shelling of the don't go don't ask city center. this is all according to local officials. g 7 liter is discuss a price cap on russian oil. the north tree one pipeline already suffering from a reduction of exports due to sanctions has now just lost its lost remaining turbine, potentially exacerbating the e u energy crisis. and a micro chip manufacturers, stock price is plummet, washington blocks, certain tech exports to china and russia. so i think that of a security risk with how i type your news on aussie international ally from moscow, worse now, just off to 6 am here. and 6 am in keith. we do start the program with the latest news from the conflict in ukraine, as we understand now about 20 explosions. i said to have

a code in the city of and no doubt located right next to europe's largest nuclear power plant. reports on the ground so ukrainian troops were thwarted in their attempt to enter areas near the plant in the separate orgy region by boat. meanwhile, a team of experts from the international atomic energy agency, currently inspecting the nuclear facility, has expressed concern about our co combat operations, right in the vicinity of the atomic plant. the o military activity and operations are increasing in that part of the country. and these worries me a lot, we believe, and i continue to believe that the situation is extremely complex, extremely challenging, and it will continue to require to permanent, the permanent support and the monitoring that we are trying to provide. now that we are there ahead of the i. e a so that the physical integrity of as upper orgy

nuclear power plant has been breached several times. the mission arrived at the facility on thursday, shortly after ukrainian forces had attempted to storm the site. and while the chief of the u. s. nuclear inspection team has not returned to key of control territory, the bodies reps will continue to stay at assess the plant and its condition. the un agency had earlier acknowledged rushes commitment to ensuring the safety of the mission at the nuclear facility. meanwhile, kia has admitted to striking the area around us up with all your facility during this latest briefing on friday. and now are shifting our focus to that of donald bass, where according to local authorities, a 3 civilians have been killed and 3 injured as the center of the next city came under intense attack on friday. and from there as well, correspondent robin cut it off. now reports from so i was just able to step outside of the base and because the shelling had just died down is still continuing

at the moment. i don't have my alive on me right now because i was simply having dinner in the theater district. this is the center of the city of the nist. this is the impact of the show that landed right in this sense are all done that's it's certainly a very, a high caliber weapon. it's been wired here for the last 10 minutes or so, but it's still very dangerous. and locals are hoping that air defense is working properly at the moment. you can see people running but while we were in the basement in this restaurant, we heard at least a 7, very,

very loud explosions. the ground was shaking. the building was shaking. i promise you there are no military positions here. what i can say is that the building, all the administration of the head of the republic is, will probably about a kilometer away from where we are right now. but that building was shelled a week ago as well. so that star gets cold. further, shelling is still unclear. russia has announced it cannot restart gas supplies to europe through its gnawed stream one pipeline as it had planned to do on saturday. this comes off of the countries energy john gas problem set of fault was found in the last remaining working turbine during a scheduled maintenance check. now the company said the equipment must be repaired

before the pipeline can resume operations. the e u, however says no stream one has been shut down under fallacious pretences. let's get some opinion now from monte contributor his rachel boston. well, the european union told russia that it could take its cheap gas and shove it believing that the move would derail moscow's ability to pursue its interests in ukraine. brussels celebrated its breakup with moscow boasting that it was going to seek out other relationships all while fully expecting to be able to carry on discreetly importing russian gas on the down low a kind of friends with benefits situation. i guess despite the break up, if only because it realised that it was tougher to replace than it had initially anticipated that gas, which is why there's been ongoing drama over the impact on the european economy of any prolonged maintenance shut downs of the nord stream. one pipeline operated by gas from that is long transported, rush and gas into europe and initial shut down of the line earlier the summer was

related to german turbines, repaired and stuck in canada. the west's own anti russian sanctions block their return now flows have since been reduced and were halted for 3 days this week. and now the russian energy giant says that the pipeline can not reopen as planned, as we can due to an oil leak. at one of the turbines that pumps the gas, the malfunction that was found doesn't allow for the safe and accident free work of the gas turbine engine. until the provost with the equipment i resolved, the transports of gas into the no stream pipeline has been completely stopped. the company says it's unsure how long the specialized repairs will take. the news is already set off a panic within the e. u though as member states race to fill their reserves ahead of the winter heating season and hope that whatever they can squirrel away will be enough. but european officials already aren't sounding too optimistic at all. french prime

minister elizabeth bonus said earlier this week that french households could realistically face to our electrical blackouts. if the situation deteriorates. and french industry prepares for gas cuts as well. germany's rushing plan, a hail mary pass to avoid blackouts and shortages came into effect this week. you commission president ursula vander leon says that the e u energy market doesn't work because of russian president vladimir putin. but it's brussels that keeps insisting on fiddling with it. most recently pushing for a price cap ceiling on russian gas. former russian president to me to be met via dev said that would result in. busy quote, no, russian gas in europe. meanwhile, g 7 countries adopted a cap on russian oil, which would also mean a loss of supply for those customers. according to moscow, the pattern here seems to be one of unilateral western sanctions against their own

supply, followed by panic and scapegoating of moscow when they realize that while hey, their actions have consequences. as they say it, you from ism the elephant in the room lose the fact that there's a perfectly functioning brand new pipeline ready to go, not stream to and them. this for some reason is not mentioned. it's completely being hidden. this is not discussed, but it was up to during the top years, the trump one wanted to block this pipeline because he was trying to sell liquefied natural gas to europe, which of course they've tried to to get but it's very complicated. they don't have the gas fires to, to handle it. they have to, because that takes years to the infrastructure is not ready. so, you know, they could, if there were political will to resolve the situation. we could start northridge to,

but the americans would of course, object and the greens would object. so really, we need an ideological re return of practical or the g 7. a finance ministers have agreed to introduce a price cap on a russian oil. the actual price is set to be a topic of future talks. now the restrictions will allow maritime transportation of russian crude oil and petroleum products only if that oil is purchased at a price or that of the cap. g 7 later the say the move as aim to reduce rushes revenues that moscow has already worn. it simply won't supply oil to any countries applying these new restrictions just to run a credit order. those countries that will join the potential price cap will not be among the recipients of russian oil. we simply will not interact with them in terms of oil on such non market conditions. our oil will go to other markets to those

countries that are ready to act according to market conditions. a response from moscow is pretty straightforward. if you're part of the agreement, then that cit, you won't be able to buy russian commodities. and i'm saying commodities because potentially this isn't only about oil. so what are the u. s. the u. k. and allies trying to achieve here, we confirm our joint political intention to implement a comprehensive prohibition of services which enable maritime transportation of russian origin, crude oil and petroleum products globally. the provision of such services would only be allowed if the oil and petroleum products are purchased at or below a price. the price cap determined by the broad coalition of countries we've already heard from the white house that in the energy field. this is the most effective way to punish the russian government. now, when it comes to natural gas, we also heard from of the head of the european commission,

or sla funder line that she supports a price cap also on russian gas, not only in europe, but globally to but then comes the question, how can you call that globally, if, for instance, china is not part of it, right? the skeptics will tell you that russia has plenty of alternative consumers. and i do have to say that there are quite a few skeptical voices among western industry experts to i don't know of anybody who works in markets who believes this is a workable idea. and i think most of us who work in markets believe that it has dangers associated with it. it invites opportunities to use potential loopholes. and like very often in the past, we are hearing of voices that there is currently not enough capacity in the world to replace russian energy supplies. the u. s. doesn't have the capacity to fill that up and the opec producers are not gas producers. any case,

there isn't any l n g capacity in the world to make up for the russian exports to, to europe, that we're running at about 14000000 cubic feet. and then we have to find the resources to replace. so that's going to take years, the nearest future will show whether the price cap agreement will backfire on those who introduced it, or really become an effective punishment tool against the russian government. meantime, the u. s. had urged india to join the russian oil price cut coalition. however, new delhi has yet to comment on that request. we did speak to joshua, she chuckner, boise, and international relations expert who says good luck, forcing asian countries to act against their own best interests. this is said that 21st century is essential and the 2 largest economic chinese india and china is an issue. so of course,

if india and china does not follow the g instead g d 7 states, and they're continuing buying oil from russia. i don't think g 7 countries can do much about it, though the blue one community should understand one thing that as a developing nation, india has a create in on demands and our energy security is our national interest. so any idea and he's the sovereign country, so any countries usa, you gave g 7 states, they cannot pressurized india to buy or to block our like in a g demands or in a g needs. russia has like other other markets as well. g 7 countries on the, on the market for russia. and if russia still stop exporting good on those g 7 countries, the need to look for other alternatives. russia. and i don't think that that would

be as cheaper as they're getting right now from russian money turn off the lights and turn down the heating. that's the message increasingly being convey to people of europe as government scramble to cut soaring energy bills. now, gas prices on that continent have retreated. some wat from a record highs set last month. this little drop followed a stipend by the european commission that it was a working on an emergency package to directly intervene in energy markets in comparison before last year. the price had never exceeded $30.00 euros per megawatt hour. and my colleague unit o'neill spoke with austria's former top diplomat and got her take on the current crisis. i cannot imagine that the europeans are going to do what they are currently doing because the stakes i so high. so that was my real inner conviction. now, 7 months later we see that they went even so the stakes are very high. it's

irrational that we have seen an irrational behavior long before february 24th indiana. you are accountable for what's your alexa, right? so this will have to be decided by the german electorate. but the overall issue on the, on the 8 you level you've got the air foreign policy chief usa barrell. recently acknowledging that certain voices within the block are urging a rethink mouth sanctions. how loud, how significant from what you've seen are those voices when you break it down to the very simple point of departure? when do you introduce sanctions? so why? why did particular sanctions introduce it was to coerce the russian government into it change of behavior. so that this was the point of departure, have to succeed it. no. but their own people are being hurt even more so is that not a more radical rethinking needed?

no. a lot of people have ah, put their heads too far out of the window. if i right, okay. if i said that at that felt that that how would put it in german or, and that to really back no would look foolish that this is one right. of course you see now the hurting and people sat in the beginning. yes, we are going to take that pain, the ready to do that. that's what the government set up. but always assuming that there will be a change in action by the russian government. so did this, this says this is the current situation. screwed up your company for the program. today, a big developments currently in the tech world. as the u. s. has ordered a stoppage to the sale of artificial intelligence chips to china and russia. the order impacts 2 major american a i chip produce as a nvidia and a m d whose stock price is plummeted. following the news. here's our correspondent caleb martin. now this will essentially restrict and prevent the

advanced work of the video when it comes to business in the country. things like image recognition, it'll basically prevent them from functioning fully in china. now we've heard from the shiny chinese commerce ministry about this. this is what the, what the commerce ministry of china had to say on the topic yesterday. for a period of time, the us has been abusing export control measures to restrict the export of semiconductor related items to china. we firmly opposed this. meanwhile, the president on taiwan is coming forward and saying that they are looking forward to producing what they're calling democracy, ships and coordination with united states to you. and i was 6 to most who cooperation with the united states in the semiconductor. and now the high checking the street will look forward to john the produce and democracy chiefs to save the interest of all democratic partners and create greater prosperity. so underscore is

the deepening tension between the united states and china. and it appears the united states is tempting to essentially weaponized ship markets for geo political . and now the results on the stock market have not been good in video stock as suffered as has a m d and others. and so that's the situation we're in. i think the united states is moving ahead with trying to prevent china from having access to certain computer chip technologies. china meanwhile, has some harsh words for germany over the decision to expand its military presence in the in the pacific. according to beijing officials, the german military, its presence in the region and brings into question its true intentions. this will probably lead to some bad memories and associations in many countries in the world . we firmly oppose any countries use of freedom of navigation as an excuse to undermine china sovereignty harm china security, an attack and smear china. china was responding to the german defense chiefs

announcement to said that a stronger military presence is needed in order to check china's quote. enormous build up of armed forces. the pledge of additional military assets from berlin comes off the last year when its 1st war ship in 2 decades sailed into the south china sea. germany is also participating in a joint operation now with australia deploying 13 military aircraft mocking it's while the air force is largest piece time deployment, and according to a senior lecturer at the university of bos pac, not one of berlin is trying to play the safe bed in it, changing world because of the war in the ukraine. germany is being exposed to her on r p t to energy dependency over russia. and because china as pro russia and they were trying to position, it makes germany increasingly aware that these

going to impact upon china, germany relations. the situation is asia is also changing the wizard by nancy pelosi to taiwan. he's making an escalation, not the tensions across the script. he comes to the conclusion of early in that they believe now perhaps to increase the military as security engagement with the principal region extra with food allies of the us led coalition will be a safe, a bad good to have with us for today's program on our fee, so thousands of demonstrators of gathered and central, but i thought is offer a gunman, apparently tried to assassinate argentine as controversial stricken vice president . christina the coachman, a riley participants held up signs in

a show of support for the coach. now, who has recently been struggling with a raft of corruption chargers that could land behind bars and supporters maintain the allegations were politically motivated. as the south american country grapples with extreme political polarization and crippling economic crisis. his art, the spanish correspondent ignacio dubia when abuse has that, a free is getting cold and when a series but tensions at the plaza de mayo are hot. as people continue to gather, demonstrating the unity of people and their support of christina kirschner. it must be said that a large rally was already expected in support of kirshner because of the court case in which he was accused of corruption. the case is seen, internal political conflict intensify an incitement of hate against the former head of the country. unfortunately, this turned into an assassination attempt. let's hear what the people in the streets are saying about the incident. yeah, no way they need it. i came to show support for christina. after all that's been

done to her for years, christine is the embodiment of love love for the nation. yesterday's attack is too much and every one has come here to support her, okay. is as, as, as you and they are, in fact, it seems to me that i have been targeted. that it's not on the blow to her. my, to all the people. a blow to democracy will not back the number of politicians have already been able to visit kirschner, for example, the governor of the province of buenos aires, alex kissell off a man very close to christina kirshner. he said she was doing very well despite yesterday's events. but the governor also said that what happened was not just about one person and should be assessed in the context of hate speech that has long existed in argentina. the countries president alberto fernandez, called the situation very serious, that in dal what happened was very serious, more serious than anything has happened since we return to democracy dollars a that we are following the investigation closely with the judge. maria capitol

cheddie issued several search warrants for the residence of the brazilian man who attempted to take the life of the vice president. it should be stressed that president fernandez has asked the judge to ensure that nothing happens to the life of kirk sinners attacker in order to establish the reasons for what happened and prevent a repetition of such events. that police say that would be assassin is a, a 35 year old brazilian man with ties to extremist groups, a believer in present, eva morales commented on the incident and the neighboring country. and eva went as far as to allege that there could be external forces with a hand in the matter a glimmer. puzzled it. last week we were informed that legal proceedings were initiated. believe the prosecutor had requested 12 years in prison and i assume that the united states as desperately with here the leftist parties, are increasingly winning elections. the u. s. can no longer stop us. they can no longer stop this democratic uprising of the peoples of latin america said now they

resort to such attacks. we all support christina, christina de kirchner, as not alone. all the while, details into the assassination of them continue to emerge. a latin america expert, walter fordham info says, and he thinks it's an example of history repeating itself. this is she the are, and we believe this assassination attempt resembles kennedy's in 1963. it occurred when he was the only serious politician in the united states. he advocated peace created, necessary conditions for that, while anglo saxon financial circles were fueling the war and dragging the country deeper into the vietnam war. i see the need to draw this parallel as vice president kirschner is able to foster peace, democracy, employment, and integrity in the global economy without harming national sovereignty for politics, challenge those financial leads which aimed to impose their own terms. this

assassination attempt should not be perceived as a random act committed by sick man. as was the talk after kennedy's killing, we should examine this case as it is the only way to avert similar political assassinations in the future. an apparent suicide bombing at a moth skin west enough. gaston has killed at least 18 people, wounding more than 20 others. that's according to local authorities at the bomb exploded during friday. prayers. when the mosque in afghanistan's a 3rd larger city had at was packed with worshippers, the bloss killed and a mom who would be no well known supporter of the taliban mosques around the country have been target multiple times over the past year. with the islamic state group, sanger conducted some of the attacks. however, no one has claimed responsibility for friday explosion as local journalist federalists. hi betty, now reports. i will, alyssa, the doors in the cargo area harassed a powerful bomb, exploded into mosque police and eye witnesses said the well known religious scholar,

my v would g, order him and, and said he was among those, kill my yeoman. a suicide bomber blew himself up, killing in a mom and many of his followers. i strongly condemned this, and this is an act by an enemy of islam. i heard at least 20 people were killed or wounded. it's a huge concern. there is more and more unrest in the country. people are worried about the security situation. why? the spokesman of the governor of her out says at least 18 people died. police said the bomb exploded. when would she but her, him and on said he was on his way to the mosque for friday. prayers. police have also confirmed that this was a suicide blast. no organisation has claimed responsibility for the incident where you are turning our attention to africa now where nigeria has analysed it's binding all foreign models, repairing an advertisement. so asserting that, well, it's an effort to promote local talent with social media users say it's effectively

a restriction against white people. we have more than 200000000 beautiful people here. we will use our own is not racist. nigeria has officially bent white modal. senate votes. i like the fact that la g raised the 1st country of band foreign models and voiceover artists on any as they're targeted and or exposed elijah and ad spaces. this band is the man to promote a homegrown talent. what if a western european nation, what to similarly, adopt a policy of developing local talent? previously i jerry had imposed a tax on advertise as if they were to feature of foreign model in the content of the band to come into effect next month is considered an extension of that initiative. a news report say the industry is already coming into compliance, but we heard her from a former nigerian presidential hopeful adam. oh god about the 2nd. who says the

band falls in line with popular sentiment. nigerians would rather see adverts featuring their fellow countrymen. so if we, we are trying to run away from the past where we are being asked to, to, to, to, to, to be shipped off the block. so this time i, we are proud the way blogs went about tonight. i'll post, you know, so if you look in is does that if you want to india, india to have kind of policy that are the same. that is then if you go to china and the 30, if you go to the middle of the 30. so what time also between us do are we or whoever, proud of who we want to do to present it as we are on the audio mobile guy. but he's been that is something in the budget to be the people in that you know, you know, the 200. no, no, i do mostly blogs. so if you want to take it to black, very important for you to put them in the portal. you mitchell, under control that because by jumping into

a world update here on our international violence classes have broken out in a northern part of the west bank between local palestinians and israelis. authorities, demonstrators were filmed, throwing stones at israeli forces as a thousands of protesters waiting, palestinian flags marched against the extra appropriation of their land by its rays . meanwhile, even jerry, a 2nd person has been found dead after a multi story building collapse earlier this week at a market in the northwestern city of kano, reports and numerous people remain trapped in the rebel as rescue work is still frantically searching for anyone still alive. a local said they thought the structure would actually soon collapse and decry to lack of preventative measures. and over to europe, really, hot temperature has been wreaking havoc on ecosystems in the south of the continent . look at these pictures right here. italy's lake part of suga on the island of sicily.
