ah, a robot must protect its own existence with a ukrainian shelling killed 6 civilians and the dog bass over the last 24 hours. according to local officials who say us high mars rockets for you is one of the attack indians government imposes. the ban on rice exports aim to increase domestic availability as devastating floods wipe out of harvest. and while president biden claims his administration is successfully coping with economic hardship, consumer prices, region, record level even will you eat now, the software will show you go for the next that you got for. if you don't know if

you're going to lunch, you know that way you use a from mosque out to the world. this is our tanner national. i'm rachel blevins and here are the top stories this hour. we begin with the latest from the don bass, where according to the local authorities, ukrainian shelling killed 4 civilians and a village north of love. and then our next republic, this cons after a local officials in the neighboring lugens republics that at least 2 people died tuesday in a ukrainian strike. a word of caution. the following images may be disturbing. here is the aftermath of the attack which hit this city of leafy charm official say, the shelling came during a humanitarian, a delivery to locals, and it was us supplied. hi mars rockets that hit the area. meanwhile,

authorities of russia in belgrade region, the ukrainian shells have once again hit russian territory where 2 people have been wounded in a border village. this comes a day after one ukrainian refugee with killed and 4 wounded in a similar attack on civilian areas. this comes as hundreds of ukrainians have fled to russia following the recommendation by the head of the harcourt region and ukraine. this influx of refugees was triggered recently when the military forces took control of a number of towns, their fears of ukrainian reprisals, and the territories have been growing with threats being made against anyone who has cooperated with russia. here's what one of the refugees told us. much of the subs, 3 of them, the shell and started and they fired the administration and shops shops where there were a russian products. they were looking for people with brushing passports and they

tortured them. these for the national battalions, he grant and army seemed to be ok, but the battalions didn't carry was women were children. they didn't even speak ukrainian or russian. we thought it was very scary to state. as a western arms are widely used in the ukrainian conflict, kiev says it's not enough, slamming germany. it's top diplomat says he is not satisfied with berlin's refusal to hand over its modern battle tanks and armored personnel carriers to crane insisting that his country needs them. now, this comes after germany's defense minister said its military aid has reached the limit. disappointing signals from germany while ukraine needs leopards and martyrs now to liberate people and save them from genocide. not a single rational argument on why these weapons cannot be supplied only abstract fears. and excuses. what is berlin afraid of that key of is not. we have handed

over an unbelievable amount from the reserves of the boon despair. but i say at this point quite clearly that we have reached the limit. now kiev is demanding the leopard to what cost $10000000.00 euros each and the martyrs to replace military hardware recently destroyed and the conflict. now this comes up to this point. western countries have been supplying mostly outdated, armored vehicles. this, however, isn't the 1st time that officials lamb master germany for not doing enough to help in the fight against russia. he has ukraine's envoy to germany previously called chancellor shows a quote offended deliver worst due to his delay in visiting key. at the head of the german state of saxony was also declared on wanted by the ambassador after he suggested peace talks with russia. earl rath, new said executive vice president of the jury just center says key is dictating how european politicians should act. i'm just made at the statement that

the criticism that is thrown at germany and other other member states that are, that may not be providing as much as ukraine would like. and i must say that this is essentially drawing down their own surprise supplies. and essentially, d will writing nato members for a country that's not part of the, it's not part of nato. there is no defending democracy. it's not really a democracy. these countries of political career too. so they have to watch out for themselves and they should be watching their people, unlike what minister bareback to hear more about ukraine than the german people to see the amount of what happened, the amount of a flowing in the money flowing in the crane. and yet they

talked about insults of the senior people that this is just, i mean it's humility. i would find a humility, humiliated by with your your p and diplomats have those types of comments made in the ukraine is dictating the past. it's shocking, as i can only see that happening if they've got a big brother behind them, supporting behind the big, big brothers are that are with the european now the central africa we're 60 farm associations have asked government officials for national investments into the domestic agriculture industry to help ease the dependency on food import given the current crisis, we need governments in central africa to give us the means and resources so that we can produce enough seeds. because now we don't have a sufficient amount to insure our food sovereignty. there is an urgent need and the farmers organizations are very willing to solve the food crisis and in the south of

the continent. the situation is dire with economic and environmental factors contributed to the potential humanitarian disaster. in zimbabwe, 3800000 people are without a stable supply of food. and in burkina faso, that number comes to 3400000. while in gambia, over 300000 people look for their next meal. an associate professor of the university of south africa to me, babies. and our con believes that the food problems and poverty in africa will be growing and totally un adopt flexible policies, the geologist that they will, while we are, you know, well, to where the gap between the rich and poor keeps on goal. we and globally, every day, every hour, i know that each i've been coming, he started becoming poor. dearly 2 of them, it has done nothing will change. and especially where we are to do with 40 sous

data. and the said jim, jim's, i'm dean black. the marquee jones all reach, are based on the ac in general. so some extended outages is try, but will continue to see this. kept going and food becoming your problem. as long as the united united mission or the own genera does not playing flexible struggle key. for those who are poor and those who i mean, if they can suffer the consequences, what about the progress of the poor switches africa i've regarding this one on the continent, da da, suffering. the consequence of this, the carbon dioxide is meant of functions as the main rise exporters to southern africa had been dealing with for harvest, the situation is due to get worse as massive floods in pakistan. and india will cut imports that as islam of that has been exporting for

a 1000000 tons in the past years to the region. and new delhi has been a steady contributor of $21000000.00 tons per year. but those days seem to be over, the price of the commodity is expected to rise after the indian government has banned the export of rice with an aim to increase domestic availability. r t correspondence run. john sharma explains it's already been the export to wheat. and now the indian government has put a blanket ban on exports of broken rice. additionally, a 20 percent duty is also being placed on the export of all non boss maddie mal rice, barring to premier, were i tease the sol, comes into effect after the 15th of september. when this norbish hm came on, if evening, lot of consignments were already either emerald ordered, under preparation, and they were ready to move to the ports. we estimate that it on go 5 to 7 elect

answer would have been under this kind of situation. so it's a huge damage because they will all get stuck and now they have to return the concerns of back to the government, blamed and abnormal increase in exports and said it's more was to control domestic food inflation in the bandits exports because it had less talk or wheat and rice following an unexpected crop failure. moreover, rice producing states of india such as been job arianna b har, an order for dish sol, week monsoon, the c r and that's disrupted and destroyed. crop yields. india exports rise to more than $150.00 countries. and broken, rise to all was 75. as for experts, the sudden hauled in overseas shipments could mean an upward trend in food prices disrupting the global supply chain. the move by india,

which accounts for 40 percent of the global rice trade is expected to father put pressure on countries that are already struggling with soaring food inflation and worsening food crisis. due to extreme weather patterns, heat ways, and the conflict in ukraine. pollute, go at times from college to a 2020 india was the only country video maintained its exports did not receive. if you look at thailand, this 60 the export for something vietnam restricted. so what happened into them is that the whole world started looking at india for someplace this fight called eat, i would explode so. so that records, you know, going to be then the, then the food security across the way. we'll get didn't know roku, rice, eas, essentially fragments of rides green broken into for you during fun quotation,

drawing or milling. i know it's not defective or less, you fishes. in fact, it's very popular in some of south asian countries. rukh and weiss in india as used primarily for ethanol production and as animal photo. and of course for human consumption in several countries. india has been the cheapest supply of rise in the world by a big margin which is shielded several african countries. but all that aside, the priority for new delhi for now is to boost domestic a well ability region sharma, r t arianna the canyon present at williams and boy were tow, has been sworn in as the country's 5th head of state. that's as kenya finds itself in crisis with skyrocketing food and energy prices, as well as a high, an employment way before winning the election router served as the deputy president for almost a decade. over the years he has been the minister of home affairs agriculture,

as well as the minister for higher education after the election president roo toes main rival contested the results. but the canyon supreme court rejected the challenge. local journalist on mondays, he now gives us this report. after several weeks of tensions and political uncertainty in the country, doctor william somewhat route was finally be sworn in as the heath president of the republic of kenya. this comes just a week after the supreme court upheld his victory. that was to link both acc, rival railer, a model or dinger. he was sworn in alongside. he's running together chicago, who now becomes the deputy president of the republic of kenya. now, several heads of states, foreign dignitaries, on paulson's of kenyans from the stadium, to witness the integration ceremony. he took over from president, looking after after hobbins, alongside him as the deputy president from 2013 to the ear 2022. and he can, ed is a country that is facing tough economic times. huge debt crises and high

we'll talk about the general processes that he's under the over to the residence, to the mean of the chairperson for the p. p for the region. the other very moral lead. got 7100000 votes and i'm to 50000000 people to, to 1000000 to do football, to good. quite a dogs are bringing everyone together from the country to move along one direction . thousands of indians, dozens of indonesian students have taken to the streets, expressing their discontent over increasing fuel prices and government mismanagement that says earlier this month, the government raised fuel prices by about 30 percent in an attempt to reduce the countries budget deficits. but the move has seen backlash as is added to the economic challenges the nation faces and lead to widespread demonstration. ah, food prices in the us had storage,

their highest levels and half a century, 13.5 percent year over year. that's coupled with skyrocketing energy costs, which have risen by almost a quarter compared to 2021. despite that, american officials are trying to convince people they are keeping the economic crisis under control. our chief caleb mop and reports, we've got the white house singing happy songs saying that they are tackling the issue of inflation. here's what joe biden had to say on tuesday. today's data shows more progress and bringing global inflation down in the u. s. economy this month we saw some price increases slow from the month before at the grocery store. now it's far from being true. we saw an increase in inflation by 8.3 percent in august. the consumer price index indicates that the cost of every day good america, the purchasing are continuing to go up. and people are hoping that us federal reserve bank will be able to maneuver

a soft landing. amid all of this economic turmoil and pain, we've got expert saying that this seems to show that it could be assigned things are going to look massy ahead in the us economy. now the american public is not thrilled with the tone that they're hearing from the white house. here's what american had to say, like food prices had been going up. so i do see embedded potatoes. and it shows that the action, the gas has been going up as well. my mother, actually, she called me a couple days ago telling me that her prices spike like skyrocketed even when you eat now the supper you make sure you got for next that you got perfect because you don't know if you're going to lunch time. you know, that way you used to right now will series is very expensive for people that can't afford to buy groceries. now on to day, joe biden was celebrating the passage of the inflation reduction act was a piece of legislation that was pretty broad included. tax reform,

it included climate change issues, as well as health care concern biden administration, the inflation reduction as a big victory ahead of the midterm. meanwhile, the actual economic data doesn't mean to back up their optimism at this point. high prices are preventing americans from purchasing the usual amount of energy when it comes to gap when it comes to tricity. we've also got a situation where the consumer price index. ready is expected to shrink by 5 percent. now consumer prices are up 8.3 percent for august over what they were in august of last year. in july they were up 9.5 percent over july of last year. and in june, they were up 9 point one percent over june of last year. those are quite big amounts of inflation. that is a rise in prices that is hitting americans in their pocket books and it could all get worse soon. friday we got railroad workers boys to go on to right.

that would be the biggest, that would be the 1st national railroad strike in 30 year and great across the united states would be brought with rounding hall. if the railroad workers are not able to renegotiate. ready their contract before the friday deadline, so that's quite a dramatic development as well. americans are not thrilled about the happy songs there. you're in the white house as conditions get worse as inflation makes their lives more difficult to political and market analysts. tom longo says that by an administration is responsible for soaring inflation and all of the issues that come with it. neither the fed nor the u. s. government really have the tools to deal with a supply chain crisis or supply crisis. and to be honest with you, i listened to the by the ministration talk and i'm, i, do you guys complain about this inflation? but yet you do everything imaginable to constrain the supply side of the equator.

we have rising real normal rages. we've got, you know, rise commodity cost and this is all because the demand for labor and base commodities and whatnot is mostly inelastic. and so you just have a whole lot of money floating around trying to, you know, procure lesser amounts of goods and basics, find demand that's going to drive the price of the margin hire. and that's a lot of what's causing this kind of placing. this is called cost push inflation. so it's clear that in my mind, these people are vandals, they're not acting in the us, the best interest. i think the, i honestly have to bring the vitamins versus trying to burn the united states of the ground on my apply my honest opinion, civil liberties groups are worried that police are shutting down. protestors who disapprove of england's new king and the monarchy in general. that's after several people have been arrested after voicing their opinion. the law,

the latest is the arrest of a man in edinburgh who had called prince andrew during the procession. carrying the late queen coffin, the police reportedly pulled the man out of a crowd while some fellow onlookers appeared to punch him. also in edinburgh, an officer stopped a man to check a blank piece of paper. he was holding to question him. if he was going to write something, quote, offensive about the newly crowned king. hold up a blank. why you want to watch stuff on it. now, you know, i don't like him. i honestly, you know, if it's, and we've got so am i not my case? might be useful. okay. all right. alex xander, mckay, political analyst and editor of red star radio says the right to free speech is

allowed in the u. k. but there are some caveats. the free speech in britain is much like british democracy and freedom to protest. you're allowed to protest as long as it doesn't inconvenience anybody who's in power. and you are allowed to tell the truth long after all the guilty parties of retired and failure to abide by that generally elicits a very unfavorable response from nosing power. what the british establishments have been saying is that it's ok to protest, but you've got to do it when the time is right. so you can only protest against the monarchy when nobody's paying attention to the mon, you know, will pay attention to your protest. so it just reveals the 1st of all is a great deal of obese apocryphal, even the rule is a britain with regard to this. but also that there is a large amount of law on the books in britain that is used to restrict protest and previous speech. now this is not used a lot of the time when the rule is don't require it to be, but is that for when they want it to be in it's that. ready for occasions like this,

when they want to project this image of total national unity and nobody can be allowed to interrupt that nobody can be allowed to dissent to publicly. the queen, dev has once again raise questions about the future relationships with commonwealth countries, where the british monarch is the head of state. and he grew and barbecued us plan to decide on whether to be an independent republic within the next 3 years. so says the prime minister, the move would remove king charles the 3rd as the head of the caribbean nation, australia. another country in the commonwealth says it may not put king charles on its banknotes, breaking a long time. tradition of honoring the monarchy. following the death of queen elizabeth, the 2nd more former british colonies are saying it's time to make a break from the path. politicians in uganda want to drop colonial names from locations in their country, such as like the toria,

named after another former queen. the local say it would be more appropriate to name these places to honor their own prominent community members, instead of calling us to oppress their indigenous people. it is not fair at all, ma'am. those structures in the name of the colonies us because as country uganda, we know we take and we love our country. we should nam, our structures, the names that we want. i believe you're going to also need to be involved to feel like we own this to this country and to enjoy, you know, walk down and half a 1000000 names or street names that you can associate with. you know, i think naming places up that people should be respect and allow not naming, listen, i'm going to people who hope for me to live. i looked in the us making us

poor, the same people that came and coordinates our brothers and sisters, the same people that took our people in slavery, but we named our things up to them. yet we ourselves in africa. we have hardly does that of great question. we have had leaders that are more passionate about this country. again, political analysts, alexander mckay, says that the united kingdom should move forward past this colonial history and established international relations based on mutual respect. well, i think it's 1st to say that much of the profits of british capitalism in the 19th and into the 20th century were gained via a looting of nations, particularly in other countries as well. when britain or other colonial powers go to places, they don't go to develop them, they go to remove the well problem, which is what we did with india and what we would have done with uganda, kenya, south africa. and really what needs to be done is that needs to be

a rebalancing of the british relationship with the well, we are still, our government is still coasting on the, on the rich is obtained in the colonial period. that needs to be a new relationship between britain and the world, which is based on an equitable relationship between sovereign nation states. not something which is dedicated towards defending the profiteering of the city of london or defending british investments is about mutually beneficial and respectful diplomatic relations. and that's the kind of relationship that britain should be building in the 21st century, not one which is constrained by the colonial attitudes of the past. and while the e u is set to support ukraine at any cost and a period of just $1.00 week at the start of the month, 3400000000 was taken elsewhere. nervous investors have pulled evie $3000000000.00 out of european markets in the last 6 months. as the latest figures show

international asset managers and investment companies are among those who are caching out that's only added to the current woes which faces an energy crisis. and soaring bills coupled with concerns of power rationing during the upcoming winter. the, as the international monetary fund is forecasting a slow down in the block school growth from 5.4 percent last year to just to point 6 percent this year. meanwhile, the american investment company, black rock, says europe is facing a recession due to the lack of russian gas. the energy crunch will drive a recession in europe. as we've argued since march, the crisis has worse than since then, as russia has halted gas supplies. earlier i spoke with jim rogers, co founder of the quantum fund, who explained the big picture of the current crisis, which not only involves europe but the entire world. look out, the window is here,

his here and many places, many parts of the world economy is already happening. you can see orders are being cut back everywhere and is going to get much, much worse, these things snowball. they start slowly when people are noticing and then next thing you know, its own r t and the evening news has been 30 years since we had an economic problem, a serious economic problem in the world that's along with, in american history anyway. so we're certainly overdue for a problem. the signs of their inflation higher interest rate, excess prices. the amount of money has been printed all over the world is staggering. and we're going to have to pay a serious price, even the head of the federal reserve. last week or so said is going to be painful and these ride is going to be very painful. the armenian defense ministry claims officer by john hughes, drones dr. sand. the situation on the border remains tense. this as the moscow,

the defense blocks, the s t o will send a delegation to armenia, aim to de escalate. the tensions with other by john after an online meeting with held at armenia is initiative with the president of all concerned parties, including russian president vladimir putin. demonstrations are happening now near armenian parliament building, demanding the impeachment of the countries prime minister, earlier pro jesters, gathered, intending to block the entrances of the national assembly armenian p. n. sad. at least 49 soldiers were killed in a fierce battle, but warn the death toll could still rise. meanwhile, as or by john disclosed 50 casualties from id side explosions from artillery and drones. shrikes were reported by armenian citizen, shortly after midnight. on monday, armenia, as other by joining forces had been targeting civilians infrastructure, but ours there by john furiously rejected that claim,
