the walls of barely starving inside, that's the bar through mall and there's some one trap in the next room. she showed me a lot project through at this point with we are pull immersive ready downstairs trying to help those you towards is will. there were 3 employees of the migration service out of what was left the hotel and the arctic cruise vehicle. our team captured the moment shortly after the attack with footage showing the scale of the destruction inside. the incident comes amid the referendum julio in russia galaxy, and away in hath thorn, as well as the neighbouring and dappled voice she had region and on bus. local authorities had said the voting will continue and finish as scheduled. despite the attack, they also accused ukrainian forces of not only intending to disrupt the referendum that of also supporting freedom of also suppressing freedom of speech by

intimidating journalists. will remo solve deputy head of hudson's military civilian administration? claims that the strike on the hotel was carried on with the hope of american specialists. more. it's mostly the city has been recovering from the showing. it's not the 1st attack that was conducted with us highmark rocket. we have information that today's attack was prepared in advance. again, not all coordinates were specifically delivered if the strike is believed to have been carried out by american specialists. the referendum in the harrison region is now proceeding as normal. ukrainian forces cannot reach us. we predicted we see now how crimea has flourished during these past 8 years. we expect to draft a contrast between the upcoming welfare states and the country that we've lived in in recent years. according to several local medium ports, one of the victims of the attack is for me ukrainian or make a nixie so rascal presidio shows true co voting in the referendum in the region. he

had been in opposition to the coming to cranium government since the 2014 may done uprising from coal move to russia a year later, but returned to the region in april. it's have a closer look at what the hotel was hit with. the american made high miles launch system is versatile. it may be loaded with a pack of 6 of the same rockets from one munition family called m l r s. one is long range missile that can fly up to 300 kilometers. so father u. s. has said 16 such high, multiple entrance to ukraine. russia says it has destroyed 6 of those. the guided missiles require the target to be said prior to the launch. and as when you clean in general has told the telegraph newspaper, much of that information comes from washington. as far as military intelligence as concerns britain and the u. s. had provided almost everything from information to equipment. he suggested there was a level of consultation between intelligence officials of both countries prior to

launching missiles that would allow washington to stop any potential attacks if they were unhappy with the intended target. we've got a reaction from human rights soy. and so she ologist martin dolder, who says, washington is contributing a lot to give military intelligence. i think of course they were very closely united states, a one of those who pushed the ukraine in that conflict and the conflicts in since the might. and in 2014, i think we should listen all the actors worldwide. no one big push ation and the u . s. could stop this conflict they wanted because they don't mean they ukraine, european countries my, my government and the french government should stop the u. s. being that progressive in the conflict and i think i told them the negotiation solution would be possible. had another incident in a russian controlled part of the promotion region. as a car exploded in the center of the city of many tow pole while voting on the

referendum was being conducted already to say the blast was the result of miss handling of explosives by a ukrainian supper who died as a result earlier to other bloss occurred in the same region in the city of bad john, the local authorities said improvised explosive devices. we use them in what they describe as a terrorist attack by ukrainian forces. it's the 3rd day of voting in referendums and on bus pass on and step away with locals. choosing whether to join russia, we bring you all the latest now in our special coverage. ah .

how correspondent berman cost of of brings us the details from the denice, the public where the voting is currently being conducted despite intensified attacks by ukrainian forces. ukrainian nationalists continue selling this city home . don't ask, trying to disrupt the people from casting their votes in this referendum mo bile referendum. groups are walking from house to house and are calling on people to come and vote. now they usually stationed outside, but because of continues showing, they were forced to move into this basement. and to have the turn out over the last couple of days was over 50 percent. and in this building alone, you can see

a big line of for a long line of people who want to cast their vote has been really tragic and dangerous. here over the last 2 days, a few people were killed by ukrainian nationalist scores were wounded. however, it hasn't deterred these people from voting in this referendum to join russia. oil on the shores. when the conflict started, i was only 14 years old. now i'm an adult. so i'm here to vote in favor of joining russia, even though the plants since the 1990 smith and thinking about why we're here in wiley have to take a different path of development. but now it seems we're finally going to attend to where we all came from a dealership service. i feel so happy. i hope we'll finally join russia. we've been through a lot these past 8 years, so i'm an assistant to the local deputy. so as soon as we join, we'll work on recovering everything. i've spoken to many people who cast their

votes and one question to them was, what's your biggest regret over the past 8 years? and many said that the biggest regret is the fact that this referendum did not take place sooner. and a lot of people had unfortunately, been killed by the ukrainian nationalists. and another hope expressing with this referendum is the fact that children will finally be able to live normal lives. and they're hoping that play grounds like this one, which are almost in every multi story. multi apartment building. the city will once again be full of kids. and full of laughter from on call for a hearty, don't ask people's republic international service. some various countries have been visiting pulling stations and have said that the voting appears to be without any violations. to be object chief, her visitor tool. oh pulling or fish and,

and see, and that is the wish of liberal permission. so we are trying to see of the process. it is free. yes, it is free. we are looking for how many people are standing. we are saying that a lot of people are standing and expressing that since 2014 to want to be a part of the cone today of susan to do the mothers rugged reset, we visited the parting station. ambrosia, i've come, we're planning to visit to mulch the pouting station we pain to there's a very friendly atmosphere. people came to the polls willingly and with smiles on their faces. we haven't detected any violations. we're pretty sure the situation and other putting stations is the same. i can't tell you for sure what's happening at the other putting stations at the moment. but from what we've seen so far, no violations have been detected, and it all runs in compliance with the needed level of transparency and international norms. drops it wonderful? this is the 2nd pulling station we have visited. as in the 1st one,

we see that the voting is taking place in a calm manner field. people are casting their votes without any problems. everything is transparent and without violence. self determination of the people as a principle of international law. that's exactly what we see here. refugees. some dumbass who have settled in russia are also able to vote in the way for when dms for the feature of the homeland. that's if the voting is currently on to wait in the dumbass republics of the next and new guns, as well as ukraine's zappa voici. i and hess legions, and also in russia's southwestern roster region. according to west of authorities, more than 4200 migrants from dumbass are living in the region, including 1007, the children. most of them were forced to feed their homes due to the ongoing conflict in ukraine. $135.00 holding stations are open across the region, enabling those who are ineligible to cost a vote for you in special procure, offered desires, says the referendum is actually

a way out of the war. but the waste does not shake this opinion. the connor or the united nations, which is the world constitution, provides for self determination asset use gold. and right. so self determination. the realization there is a config conflict prevention strategy, and it is a function of the united nations to facilitate of course what we need most today. take down the golgi and this will be an element of negotiation. we pending on the results off the referenda, the western countries, canada, radia included. they have already app priority taken a position that is referenda is a shaft, but they've taken that position before. so no matter what the result

is, we are going to reject the problem is that the united nations, as an organization and the un human rights council is essentially in the service of washington at brussels. everybody knows me. nobody likes to estimate that. it is, it is a major failure on the part of our secretary general and so on your tablet they didn't have done but have been considering the fate well ahead of the referendum. things change back in 2014, when the may done uprising spoke to craning to with those who objected the outcome of the subject to oppression. ever since you can see how the bloody unfolded and divided the country in our teeth. documentary may done though to war ah

surely in my dom protests were initially held in support of european integration, but was soon hijacked by ukrainian nationalists slogans for directors against the russian speaking population. ukraine is the ukrainians. ukraine above all, a december 2013. the lowest peaceful year in the history of the united ukraine is coming to an end. the year of my down movement is gaining momentum in case we believe in the shows up of labor leads to possibly many western politicians, ambassadors and leaders of foreign state supported the might on protests. as

president victor on a coach came under intense pressure. protesters were emboldened by the support from the west, acting with impunity, marianna, co, which was unable to respond with force to deal with the unrest. ah, and we'll keep you updated

on the referendums as they continue to take place. with russia began a parcel mobilization this week with about 300000 people to be caught up for military service. president vladimir putin made the announcement at an address to the nation will be sure to assist you there. yes, i do my find it necessary to support the proposal of the defense ministry and the general staff on partial mobilization and the russian federation to defend our motherland and its sovereignty and territorial integrity. and to ensure the safety of our people and the people in the liberated territories. thus, as i have said, we're talking about partial mobilization. in other words, only military reservists, primarily those who served in the armed forces and have specific military occupational specialties and corresponding experienced,

will be called up before being sent to their units. those called up for active duty while undergo mandatory additional military training based on the experience of the special military operation. you have to say that this statement didn't come as a surprise, as moscow has repeatedly been warning, came about a number of red lines bad and ought to be crossed. but as you know, things at the frond have recently been very tough. and just recently ukraine with huge support of its western allies with a lot of western weapons. and a huge number of our foreign fighter is on bear side of that started counter offensive. and a huge part of had to fleet in that had been under the control of the russian forces and united forces. all people's republic often has been longest since spring has been taking back out. of course, this is something that russia can not ignore, ignore, and light reporting. sat that while he have seems not to be ready to stop it and

necessary sat mobilization. and also who said that this is actually a duty of russia zip. but who, you know, hopefully people in this approach in harrison regions in logan's can to next saw and are seeing now the atrocities perpetrated by the neo nazis in the ukrainian occupied areas of the heart of region. the descendants of van der writes and members of nazi punitive expeditions are killing, torturing and imprisoning peoples. we have no moral right to let our chin be torn to pieces by butchers. we cannot but respond to their sincere striving to decide their own destiny on their own. weidler put in a stress that the status of moscow special military operation on the ground does not change with this recent announcement that will continue according to the plan. and while wideman potent said, the west is actually seeking to wiccan rush and eventually destroy a russia, the aim of the russian operation on the ground is to counter these efforts.

vladimir putin also reminded that the russia deed that already in the past, and we'll do it again, stopping all those seeking to control the world for you. who are you in the event of a threat to the territorial integrity of our country and to defend russia and our people? we will certainly make use of all weapon systems available to us. this is not a bluff. the citizens of russia can rest assured that the territorial integrity of our motherland, our independence, and freedom will be defended. i have to say these are strong words and a very serious warning and defense minister survey showed go also talked about that so called collective west is currently fighting on key at side and out at least 18 need to set lies are currently at ukraine service. so russia simply cannot just sit and watch this large scale operation against people of the dumbass region and eventually of russia. just watch it now. so they have to stepping as the 1st to be

caught up, are being sent into military service. we spoke with some of them to understand how they feel about it. well, was it all so little since i had suspected it was going to happen, i fit the criteria and after all, if it's not us, then who will it be? the government and the president have decided this is the better way. so if it's needed, it's better to draw that line. now instead of later when there would be more difficulties and more victims, financial civil wishes, of course, it's a sacred duty to protect our motherland. if they'll send me there, then let it be. so then that is my destiny. i basically accepted that of course, it was scary when it all started and the draft notices began to be issued. but what would be the point of running from it almost as 1000000 soldiers are needed? there's not enough of them, not enough contract soldiers and that's why there's this mobilization now. i wasn't at home when the draft notices came, then my mother received it and i got it from her. i was not going to run from it anyway, so i feel confident i am expecting that we will win this and i'm hoping everything

will be okay. meanwhile, in the russian city of mahash, calais in the southern republic of destiny, and he mobilization, protest as have clashed with police. the, all this unverified footage uploaded to social media canes to show at least a 100 people protesting some undisturbed have been detained. but as of yet no official number has been released, protest was reported in other parts of douglas done. and now some news in brief, from around the world. in paris, the massive fire has broken out at a warehouse with tunes of 6 smoke billowing into the sky. the place sprayed across 7000 square meters that the facility part of a major project markers about a 100 firefighters have been working at the seen.

the technology over now where protesters have again taken to the streets of the capital demand in the country. the pro european president resign thousands of mass downsides and government building to denounce high inflation and fuel costs of the prices thought on the back of wasting sanctions against russia. earlier this month, protest to set up a tent can outside government headquarters, and volunteers stay there until the presidents unsigned. and in the philippines last part of the south, east asian country are being battered by a destructive make a storm as super ty, fee, nor root with wouldn't approaching speeds of 200 kilometers per hour. has made land for on the countries main island authorities earlier core for mass evacuation thing . the storm poses the quote extreme through it to live and property.

with ah ah mm hm. mm gone. welcome. to world war, the favorite topic for political analyst over the last couple of months has moved from the realm of speculation into a fast cheating reality. with russia announcing national mobilization, what it sees as a morbid nature and the collective quest. not the more more,

it's not a proxy war and not be trading a sanction full blown kinetic conflict with already thousands of data on both sides . can anything be done to prevent further installation to discuss it? i'm now joined by a couple of political analysts for my advisor to your degree prime minister address on jo demetrius. it's a great pleasure, great honor for me to talk to you. and i really like this opportunity to communicate because i think we, we may not have it for a long time because russia and europe seem to be enemies yet again. and those differences tend to be truly irreconcilable. what do you think it's all heading? thank you for your invitation. thank you for you to be with you and was your i'm happy, but i have the also for the reason for the topic to discuss today because it is to, we are heading everything in degree important crises. and i want to exaggerate if
