honestly, i expected to see a different situation. people panicking being scared to vote, but i see voters calmly coming to express their will. it's clear to me that people have been waiting for this for a long time. with thousands of protesters in germany to launch the government's resignation over the energy crisis, with many calling to open the north streams to pipeline, and they've rising energy cost with hello and welcome it's mid day here in the russian capital. and this is our t international with the latest at world news updates. thank you for joining us here. that we're covering breaking news. this our on our t international. we understand 9 people have been killed, including 5 children, and 20 more injured in a school shooting in the city of a shed in central russia. as according to russia's investigative committee,

we can now show you on the verified video footage which appears to show children hiding inside the school amid that the sound of gunshots. we should warner view is now this video could be distressing to you. the what we're showing you now is on verified strategic children hiding in the classroom with their teachers, amid the sound of shooting police officers late to enter the school and quickly evacuated. the children from a building. this video now is, which is also in verified a pitch show children leaving school so in this video, you can see children and teachers running away from the school somewhere even using the roof to escape some of those jumping from the top,

reportedly among those wounded today we also have this on verified search, which appears to show a wounded person being carried away from the school on a school desk. miss reported to be one of the school students. once again, you might find this postage, upsetting the suspect as short himself dead. police say the body of the suspect has been found. emergency services are still at the scene of students and teachers continue to be evacuated. so we have some more information on the shooter. now, according to investigators, he was wearing a black t shirt with nazi symbols on it and had his face covered with a balaclava, he had no documents on him and remains on identified. okay, well let, joining me in the studio throughout the morning is our correspondent, marina culture of marina. first of all, a tragic new story that we're covering this morning go into san 9. people have been

killed. 5 innocent children, one more. do we know at this point or the other 4 are basically 2 security guards and 2 teachers from the information that we have coming in right now, how it happened and how it was unfold. and 1st of all, we started getting this information for social media through telegram channels and what they were saying, what they were reporting is that the shooter who was dressed all in black, he came in he shots, one of the security guards 1st, and he proceeded onto the classrooms and started shooting there. now the school itself has over $900.00 students and around 80 teachers. so it's not a small school, it's quite large. so thankfully the casualties it could have been far, far worse. so then children saw some of them started jumping out from the windows and jumping from the rooftops because there were scared others who were hearing the shots being fired. didn't know what to do. some escaped and started hiding in auditoriums right now with the emergency services are also checking the school to

make sure that there is no one still hide them because they're afraid. somewhere, as the emergency service is also taken away, those who have been killed and wounded parents still arrive enough the scene that can only imagine what their guns were. haven't heard this so we can see that they are, they're running to get their children to make sure that they're okay and they're not among those have been wounded or killed the footage that we have the children look really quite youngest, while around primary late primary school early middle school age, i'd say probably around 1012 that's actually my estimation from seeing the video. so, you know, these aren't teenagers, these young children are exact to say, can only imagine how traumatic this was for them and will be and the emergency services will be worked with them. beyond this, of course i was of a psychologist as always, this is what happens. what's interesting is that the school is close to the town hall, close to the local administration. that's why also we saw that the head of region

and everyone they arrived at the scene very fast as soon as they heard about this. and now they're trying to establish the identity of the shooter who, of course, shots, himself, thankfully. so we will not, i hope, hear about more the number of casualties increasing. they're trying to establish who he was. what's interesting is that we now know that he was wearing the black t shirt as you said, with nazi symbols anabolic lava. so they could only, we can only assume what that means in terms of what his motives were. this, of course, a tricky time right now rush us. so we're trying to establish whether this is just a madman or whether this is someone trying to create a provocation. or what was behind his motive, why? why he did what he did as we find identity and find out more about his, his background and maybe even the social media, then maybe it would become clear what his motive was. her records sometimes was seen in recent times that they post about what they're planning to do that. oh, watch what, what will happen in the next few hours?

so right now they're trying to establish who he is and then they will start digging into his background, who he is, why he did what he did. but of course, the footage that we saw emerge in there with the parents running from the school and the children hiding like right now that we see it's on the course on verified footage. but this is eerily similar to what we saw in 2004. everyone in rush of course, remembers the best law school seat, which is in fact, the deadliest school shooting in human history and everyone. as soon as we heard this news come out today, we were worried that in case this will turn into another best salon, where there were over a thousands of people held hostage over 3 days. and there were 300 people who died more than half of them children. thankfully, we didn't see it unfolding to that. thankfully, the shoots are shot themselves. the police is there, they're working at the scene, they're evacuating the students. and let's see. now we're waiting to see who this

person was and why he did what he did. you know, as journalists, we cover hot breaking stories for every day of our lives. but you know, when it comes to a school shooting or any attacks against innocent children who are simply, you know, just started the school year literally, 2 weeks ago, 3 weeks ago they started the school year. first, use the early in the morning just starting the lessons, maybe just going for lunch and then something like this because it's just up to loony. heartbreaking and every parents was not math and let them keep across all the latest on. they say this developing story, as we know right now, 9 people have been confirmed that and including 5 children in the school shooting in central russia. let me know. thank you for coming. in my case, i'm one of the big store recovering this monday is the referendum and don't pass until the regents because it's the 4th day of voting and the locals are deciding

whether they want to become a part of russia. ah well turn out and the referendums under way, miller gans can, did not done yes. the public's as well as been the capital shake and coastal regions has passed the crucial 50 percent milestone. that means moscow will now recognize the outcome of the voting bad as valid. officials say that turn out on the 3rd day of polling and the la guns people's public was 76 percent with over

a 1000000 residents, costing the vote in the don. yes, republic, over 77 percent voted on that future. well i for half of all eligible voters said yes to russia and as i for those yeah, region western countries have already said they will refuse to recognize the results. international observers, we visited a number of coding stations over the 3 days at shared their assessments. but i have seen it says pretty good is going. all right. you know, in western media, they say all the time we sold yours are they're trying to of forced to people to fault. well, it didn't see that. okay. i got honestly, i expected to see a different situation and people panicking being scared to vote. but i see voters calmly coming to express their well being confident in their decision. i have visited the participation so far and my impression with those stations is that there's quite a free and fair process that is going on. there is no meddling with the process and there is actually explanations that are being done for those who do not understand

how the process is to unfold. so i think so further from what i have observed in both his patients, the addresses was quite transparent. i didn't medic, zillow, i like that there are multiple pulling stations at the referendum so people can vote at any convenient location and don't have to go a long way. i see that people can choose freely. it's clear to me that people have been waiting for this for a long time, a parking lot on the button valcall, and they were to polling stations in the la ganske republic. i'm wanting maria pope, that in my view, don't fully comply with international standards. that's because they allocated outside the ability to vote confidentially wasn't provided since there were no booze in maria po, government serves is explained to us is for security purposes. but still that's the only violation i've noticed so far. a correspondence in don boss, i've been following the vote here are the updates from raymond, cause we have in a don. yes. republicans egleston off in elegance for public in the legacy peoples republic. the vote can already be held of as successful. now again,

more than 70 percent of all the population that is eligible to vote have already done so, and that's more than enough to close the polling stations right now and start counting the yes and no votes. but those who still haven't showed of those who still haven't attended the referendum, they will have a chance they will be able to seize their chance to change their future. now this has come against the backdrop of major security concerns because key of authorities and the key of military has been trying to intimidate the local population. here they have been shelling in cities, towns and villages adjacent to the, to le ganske to the capital for the past 4 days. and before that, as well. obviously, sending him messages do not vote in the neighboring town of al chevy. people have been voting in the basements because while they couldn't go outside out of fear of shelling, but as you can see by the official figures, this has failed to hamper this has failed to strong arm people into not voting into

staying home. now, again, some western media outlets they have pointed out the fact that armed men are accompanying are following members of the mobile election committees. those are men and women who are going door to door to collect signatures, to collect votes. and they have been trying to, i mean, the journalists, weston journalists, some of them have been trying to portray this as that the people here are being forced into voting by armed men. but in fact, this couldn't be further from the truth. again, as i said, security concerns are very grave here, and the authorities are taking them very, very seriously. so far, all of the voting has been around the mobile voting commission. so pulling booths and stations, they have been coming to people and not vice versa. so they have been coming to the locals and providing the opportunity to safely voe to without the necessity of

collecting large crowds of people to morrow will be the day when will traditional stationary voting booths of and voting polling stations will open and that, well, the authorities fear that that creates the possibility for will something nasty to happened. but so far the vote has been very streamlined, very smooth, and everyone here the authorities on the population hope that the vote will close that the referendum will end up safely securely and while successfully hold, despite the fact that ukrainian nationalists continue shelling the city of the nest well, in the rest of the nets, people's republic referendum is going according to plan. now, according to international observers, according to russian observers as well, all the voting is done in accordance with the laws and regulations. now this is the 4th day of the referendum and mobile referendum can be teaser, continue going door to door and offering people to vote. and

this is happening all over the republic. now those are referendum or committees consist in mostly all for teachers, from high schools, the lectures from universities, of course they are accompanied by one member of father police trying to ensure the safety. now i walked around with these mobile groups as well. my mind you, it's not very safe anywhere in the nest people's republic, for example, in a girl of co, which is on the bad. so 40 kilometers away from where i am. 2 of the members of this mob, refron and groups were received concussions as they were shelled, trying to perform a their gc. nevertheless, people are happy to show their free will, who spoke to some of them, and this is what they had to say. let's just move from the conflict started. i was only 14 years old now. i'm an also to run a hell of a in favor of joining russia even though stiffly since the 19 ninety's. we've been

thinking about why we had why we've had to take a different pathway to the elephant. but now it seems we're finally going to return to where we all came from to keep a mckorick feel so happy. i hope we'll finally join russia. we've been through a lot these past 8 years. i'm an assistant to the local deputy. so as soon as we join we'll work on recovering everything forwards. now ukrainian nationalists continue a shilling, the nest people's republic over the last 24 hours. at least 300 various shells landed in the city of the naz girl of god and the other towns as well. now those includes a high caliber shelves including those supplied by nato countries. meanwhile, president of ukraine of latin mirror zaleski said that so when the referendum of finishes and the results are read, there will be no ground for negotiation between moscow and keith. with the cold

winter months in europe, just around the corner, thousands of taken to the streets in look, men at germany, demanding to open the nodes train see pipeline. and we start cooperation with russia. ah, well dorothy, i like may wanted to hurt russia, but now they are harming us the citizens and we will continue to fight for nord stream to, to be open. but innovation fantastically georgia, you are german government, should hear that our objective is to open nord stream to and reconnect with the russian government as it has been for centuries. this is the only way russia and germany can bear through, wrote all thousands of protesters gathered all the rally according to authorities demonstrate his waived russian flags criticizing the government for sky rocketing energy price is an old that demand thing. the reopening of the known stream see pipeline a t contribute to rachel moss and friends is more details apparently asking west

chairs to jump through ridiculous hoops like showering together or with just a splash of water band take that putin isn't quite getting the job done via the machine we're experiencing a severe energy crisis triggered by the loss of energy production. austin, russia has stopped delivering around 55000000000 cubic meters of gas. the amount that came via or trim. one new gas now has to be procured on the world market. in france, more than half of the nuclear power plants have failed, is causing major problems to the grid, which is also driven up prices. the 2 issues have triggered and external shock that has hit the country hard. both german consumers and companies. havoc is singing a much more panicky tune than he was at the beginning of september when he tried to downplay concerns of catastrophic economic failure by explaining through some kind of magic math how german companies could avoid insolvency by just stopping

production. like if you just play dead, don't move, you'll survive. sounds like he got confused with the vice on how to handle an encounter with a wild russian bear, rather than a lack brushing gas. the western press including forbes bloomberg. andy economists have been warning since the summer of de industrialization and a factory exodus from germany in europe as a result of the block, suicidal energy policy, and now european manufacturers of steel, fertilizer and other industrial staples are reportedly shifting operations to the us. it looks like europe is the industrialized itself and sending those jobs to america. clearly the big winner here isn't keith. it's washington. no, under the biden administration, encourage brussels to adopt only the most severe and suicidal sanctions. meanwhile, german chancellor off shoals has continued his global door knocking to her to beg for gas this time to saudi arabia, in a race against the clock before the german economy tanks. and having tried pretty

much everything else with halloween coming up. maybe he could just throw on a disguise of costume, go knock on gas from's door and just tell them to flip the switch on the existing pipelines to germany. that berlin was foolish enough to let brussels sanction speaking of which another top european official seemed to be changing his tune as well. back in april the blocks chief diplomat, yoseph burrell said of the ukrainian conflict that quote, this war will be one on the battlefield. in announcing more european weapons in cash for keith. but how to listen to what he's saying now, when people say it is not a bluff, you have to take them seriously. a diplomatic solution that preserves the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine must be reached. otherwise, we can finish the war, but we will not have peace. summer is barely come to a close and already europe's authoritarian anti russian dogmatism is showing cracks, as it repeatedly smashes up against pragmatic reality. but exactly how far the

blocks on elected officials will go in imposing economic devastation and social suffering before pulling from their self imposed nosedive still remains to be seen a ride wing alliances claiming victory and the italian parliamentary elections, which could see the leader of the brothers of italy, policy, georgia, maloney become the 1st female prime minister in the country's history. and the results indicate the coalition government that some say could be the most right. leaning leadership initially is the days of fashion, dictate the benito mussolini, and alliance of the brothers of italy. must have se, leak, silvio berlusconi for italy, and a small door at parties as whenever 40 percent of the votes with the full result was expected. later on monday, we spoke to independent journalists loop. we have a who sees the results, shows that italians won't change. think says worse than the in italy over the last years and italian south fed up with having governments that last for one year maximum doubt fed up with illegal immigration coming from africa and from the

middle east. that is non desired in italy. and they are really shocked by the declaration of the last few days of mrs fog that land the president of the european commission when she threatened italy, if the italians voted badly, in other words, for mrs. maloney and her friends to have the instruments to constrain the dalliance into following european policies dictated by brussels. how could the president of european commission that he is not even elected franklin victor, or been threatened to polish prime minister, who have been elected with absolute majorities? the threats of mrs. font lane will turn back like a boomerang on the u crux in bras. what will be the answer? this is melanie. we don't know yet, of course, but it will certainly be strong. this woman is not afraid of brussels. she will

certainly make inroads into the brussels crowd and make sure that the voice of italy and the voice of the other groups off sovereignties within the european consort will be heard more and more who return. now, to our breaking news story, we have an update for you, a 13 people, and now in the states who have been killed, including 7 children, and 20 more engine as school shooting in the city of a shadow in central russia. that's according to russia investigative committee. we can show you on verified video, 32, which appears to show children hiding inside the school amid the sound of gunshots . we should warn our view as this video could be distressing. t. ah, well, he can see on verified footage of children hiding in their classroom with their

teachers during the shooting. children were seeking safety from the shooter and waiting for help police officers and to the school and quickly evacuated. the children from the building in this video, which is on verified, appears to show a parent entering the school and rescuing his child. ah, so in this video you can see children and teachers running from the school or some were using the roof to escape and some of those jumping from the rooftop, reportedly among those wounded g. yes, the british was to have this on verified footage which appears to show a wounded person being a carried away on a school desk from the seed is reported to be one of the school students. now we know the suspect has sorts himself dead. a police say the body of a suspect has been found. emergency services all still at the scene of students and

teachers continue to be evacuated. we do have an update on the suspects. we now know, according to investigators, he nazi insignia on it. and his face was covered with a balaclava, he wasn't carrying any identification documents, so we, he still remains on time to find at this point. well, let's discuss this story with our corresponded marina, cause the reverse. thank you for coming in marina. you've been with us for over an hour now since the news broke of this story. now the desktop has risen again. and what, what do we know at this point? well, to be honest with you, i didn't expect that the fall to rise after were heard that the shoots are shock herself. but again, emergency services are still there. they're still looking into maybe there are some students still hiding. because when this happens, some of the students, as you said, there were jumping from the rooftop, jumped from the windows, and some were hiding, and all the forums. now, we don't know if these latest the desks,

so that has risen this. those students are those who succumb to their injuries, whether their injuries were so severe that they died, or whether they found additional students because we don't know the routes that they shoot for it. so all we know is that he came into school dressed all in black . now we know that his t shirt had not seen me on that he was wearing a balaclava, the security guard was among the 1st who was shot. then he proceeded on to the classrooms and he went on his rampage, rampage. they're not. you can imagine as a parent yourself hearing about something like this. the 1st reports that are coming out for telegram channels for social media. and some of the students actually started texting their parents. and we actually have an example of that as we can have a look at the text messages of one of the students mom called the police. there we shoot, and in the school there shooting. it's carrie, here. we call the police. there was shooting in the school. wow,

hard break and truly heartbreaking, and all of the injured have reportedly been already taken to the hospital. but there are still parents, as you can imagine arriving in pallets trying to find, find their find their children. now the school has over 900 students and around 80 teachers and the location. it's quite central in the town. it's close to the town hall of the administration. that's what we also saw. the officials arrived there very quickly, almost as soon as the police officers arrived in the emergency services. but as we know, the shooter shot himself. we do hope we don't see the death toll increase, but again, it remains unclear because like i said in the past, literally 10 minutes, the situation just changed and it went from lines to 13. people died among them, the children security guards and teachers. we still know little about this shooter . we know that he was wearing a balaclava, something to do with him wearing and not see insignia. so we don't know what his

motives might be political. we just don't know anything about this, mike, but actually it's early on because he wasn't carrying any identification on him. this is exactly what they were trying to establish now, who he is, what his motives were, they will check for his social media. i'm sure may be, we don't know which futures these days. sometimes they post on line about what they're planning to do. may change a symbol i'm going to do. we don't know yet. so now they're trying to establish his identity. and we'll see what will come out from last, but the fact that he was wearing nazi insignia does go to tell you something. and of course, this is a critical time right now. russia sensitive. so we don't know what is behind it. is this alone madman, or is this someone who's trying to create a provocation? this is exactly what the investigators will be working on right now. for the 2 of us, like we said earlier, you know, we cover all sorts of, you know, heartbreaking stories. but when it comes to school shooting, it's just something that really hits you in the heart,

especially as parents or south. but even people who are parents, these are innocent children. just going to school to study, you know, and also it reminds of as things that happened in the past, exactly, in russia, whenever anyone here is about a school shooting, taken place. immediately your heart stops because you remember the best long school siege, which also happened in september on the very 1st day of school. so the 1st of september in russia, this was in 2004. and this was a horrific, horrific situation. the fact that was the deadline school, she's saying human history over a 1000 people were held hostage over 3 days. and that resulted in more than 700 people being killed. over half of them children, $300.00, i'm sorry, it's over $300.00 people being killed over half of them. children, thankfully within see this turn into that. but the footage that you can see, you're really similar with the children running away with the parents survivor and then panic. and we saw which is there as well, of children being carried clutching onto their task,

either from injuries from fear. absolutely perfect and terrifying, but thankfully everyone, almost everyone has been in fact where they still search and in case anyone is high, then like i said earlier, because we don't know from panic. maybe someone is literally behind in the cupboard somewhere. so they're checking to make sure everyone is out the shooter shots himself, so there is no danger of him hurting any more people. and hopefully, like we said, we don't see the death toll rice and the next couple of minutes hours. okay, well, thank you for joining us here on the international. we're going to bring you all the latest information on our breaking news story. marina cause of i thank you for coming in with the details and thank you for joining us here. and he will be back at the top of the hour with all the latest. we'll see that the crane.
