a national z m a not by mia. ah, breaking news on taylor down for a public official for around 30 people are dead and then the 7 wounded. ukrainian course is still the convoy of refugees in the northeast and hall of with a full leak in the north stream. pipeline is afford to be found by the swedish coast guard. most opens and international terrorism. pro, been to us, inspected it on the russian german gas transit for the you should stop the media because hey, when africa we are the ones suffering opinions continue to study in the central russian 1st life is accurate because serious. um and they think 1000000

a very welcome to you with to pm here in moscow. and this is an international with the latest world news up. it gets happy with us that we start with some breaking news. this. our guns officials say around 30 people are definitely 7 others wounded, including children of the ukrainian forces. show the convoy of refugees trying to flee from the north east and hawk of region to neighboring russia. our senior correspondent, more downstairs reports. we know that rescuers are unable to get to the bodies to presumably the injured and experience tells us that in such instances of if shelling of match deaths, there are presumably, again, more wounded than there are moved. people killed, so 30 dead already confirmed perhaps a number that is going to,

that is going to rise more people that, that need help. and yet ambulances rescue services are unable to get to them. because ukrainian shelling continues, the russian ministry of defense says that the ukrainian drone was she overhead. as the shelling baganda presumably directed the shelling, it must have seen the, the convoys of civilian vehicles. these are parts again a part of the thousands and thousands of people that have elected to flee, hike of province as ukrainian forces have advanced in order to escape from the potential purges, purges, sometimes deadly purges that we have seen in areas recaptured by ukrainian forces where they target any when they deem to have been friendly, with russian forces. according to local officials, ukraine has also shelter number f residential areas in cas song. this but it shows

the aftermath of the attack authority. sally, 6 people were wounded as a college into residential building, which one person remains in a critical condition under the city of don. yes, the park in hotel was struck and damaged along with nearby parks, cars and windows, it shattered in the attack. no casualties have been reported and ukraine hasn't commented on the shelling was staying and on. yes. now, a woman has also died in her work place after she was struck by a fragment from ukrainian 155 minute millimeter shell. ortiz woman calls her husband. another casualty here in the nest after ukrainian nationalist shelter the city. this is elana. she is only 47 years old. she is an accountant. she was killed while she was working. her shell landed just outside of this office building and another person was injured as a 150. 5 millimeter shell landed just outside her husband and her son are

just outside. they are devastated. they don't want to be on camera. they don't want to talk right now, but the shelling continues at the moment. ah . the building that was attacked by ukrainian nationalist is actually at technical college. this is where people come to improve education. so that could work cancer, factories and plans. these people were actually having a lesson when ukraine attacked this area. and when helena was killed, and now i spoke with a couple of these students here, and they told me exactly what happened with us. we were approaching to college. i turned my back her the bank than crouched. i looked back and saw the glass falling from the windows around the corner and my friend who was stay nearby. he went into

the college and went to til it got quieter and then enter the college. we saw our teacher, she was asking for our help, we came into the office and sort of woman seaton. blood was pouring from both sides of her neck. we realized that we couldn't help her. her arteries were cut, so we just called an ambulance. that's all i can tell you. i'm shocked by what i saw was the you were standing near the college. it was $815.00. we came to study or heard now his no noises on land bang and then glass shattering the purpose saved us . we crouched so it didn't get hit. it was only when we came to the college that were found out that a woman was wounded in the neck. we came to see her and she was bleeding from both sides of her neck. that is all i can tell you. ah, ah, this is the point offer impact of the shelf fired by ukrainian nationalist against

peaceful civilians here in dunham, this is a fragment of that shell. it's still very hot. according to official investigators, this is 155 millimeter caliber shell supplied to ukraine by a nato countries. helena, who was killed by fragments of the show, was sitting right over there. that is her office. she was killed instantly. the moment she was working in this office, the buildings around me are also full of shrapnel. there is not a single military brute position around me. so this is clear. ukrainian nationalists are using nato supplied ammunition in

order to terrorize local population. rahman calls for of hearty loaners people's republic with referendums on joining russia over the leaders of don. yes, guns, no guns were public, as well as their counterparts when the curse on ins. apples here regions have arrived in moscow to finalize the unification process. however, some of the territories of those regions still remain under the control of the ukrainian army, is include separate all she has capital, a part of the donors republic and a portion of care san region leaders from the territories say their battle is continuing and expect more fighting to take place, a landslide victory, and all 4 regions means that around 15 percent of ukrainian soil, with a population of around 6000000 people will join russia. once the requested join has been approved by moscow. ukraine and its allies have dismissed the referendums as a sham and to refuse to recognize the results he had said it would put

international observers on a global wanted list. we spoke to one of them, german journalist and author thomas roper, who was in care. so, and he described how the voting took place that in general, ukraine tries to avoid the referendum and the election offices might be really targets it's question feeding. and that's why a 4 days they were more by elections with going around with even more bio stuff and making that people that letter from their homes, from this whole street to avoid big crowds of people. the mood of the people is quite interesting because i was in harrison which was supposed to be for, for russia, the most complicated area. but the heavy shelling of, of ukraine really changed the mood of the people in the last weeks. they told me this nearly every, every city. so they came to the, for the election offices, really and groups. and they were quite happy. and i was there before and they were

even afraid to talk them when they were pro russian because they were afraid the dresser could leave and the that would be repression from the ukraine inside after that. and now they, every, everybody of them was searching for a camera. we had just, we were preserve us and we said, can we ask? and nearly everybody was ready to talk into the camera and telling we want to russia we was, we were waiting for it. or other said, well, we were against all this, but we seen what ukraine is doing. they, they're selling our schools and it's really civil infrastructure. we'll keep you updated with all the latest on the events and the don't bass republics and those other regions on what the future holds for them. so do stay with us for that. ah, and now the latest news on the north stream pipelines with a full fleet report to be found by the swedish coast guard, russia security services opened an international terror investigation into suspecting sabotage on the russian german pipeline. that says,

the white house shrugs off an earlier thread by president joe biden, to put an end to the energy transit route in the event of russian military action and ukraine. the president said that in his 2 wouldn't become operational and we would work with germany on that. and he was right through there will be a we, there will be no longer a nor stream to we, we will bring it. and how will you do that? i promise you will be able to do on so many occasions in the past the finger was pointed at russia. so many times that you'd expect the same thing to begin happening right now. however, it's not happening this time, and the u. s. officials are saying that it's too early to blame russia, although what the americans have been doing so far is firmly denying their own involvement. it's not us. the u. s. government is incomplete denial. we were

absolutely not involved. the jury is still out. many of our partners i think, have determined or believe it is sabotage. i'm not at the point where i can tell you one way or the other. moreover, several media outlets including germany's durst, fiegel and americas new york times reported that this summer, the c, i a had warned several e countries about a possible attack on the pipeline. so what could this mean supposedly, if a warning had come from the u. s. intelligence the americans couldn't have been guilty, so it may seem that the u. s. government could have tried to come up with an alibi for itself with the media, allegedly trying to push it now. but guess what? the danish minister of defense said that neither denmark's government, nor his ministry was notified. so if there was some kind of plan, would this alibi? it didn't work. so seeing quite a lot of reaction online and full outs after this incidence with one form of polish

politician, even appearing to thank the u. s. what's happened? what else is the vanilla? well, according to ne toast, twitter, they have recently tested, quote unquote, unmanned systems as see the tweet was posted just as the news on the alleged pipeline. sabotage came in and some uses online immediately tried to connect the dots, have a look later exercises present opportunities to test new unmanned systems at c, ensuring that allies can work together to counter current and future security challenges. so you saying it was nato that bombed north stream one and 2 blowing up pipelines because democracy did nato sabotaged the nord stream one and 2 pipeline with their numerous training in the c. so nothings clear just yet, it is indeed a very unusual incident. so we'll, we'll definitely keep hearing about it and it will remain in the headlines for the

next few days. and my connie pitas got talking to lassie corresponded aly patricia, had a military journalist at vasily. i take are off a next that in underwater technologies they sabotaged, is the only plausible explanation for what happened. oh sure. the thickness of the pipe metal, it's up to $41.00 millimeters. this is a lot. the soviet t 34 tank had 35 millimeters of armor from above. these pipes also have concrete protection, up to 110 millimeters. that's pro series protection. so these could not have been an accident. this is definitely sabotaged. it is absolutely clear who ordered this back in february, the american president said that the united states would deal with the north stream . and as for who could actually do this. back in the spring, i made a report about ukrainian combat swimmers who were trained by their italian colleagues. when this eunice pace was attacked by russian forces, the pulls took them to the baltic. it wasn't clear up until now. why were they

evacuated there? the seas rather shallow. the average depth is 50 meters come, but swimmer can dive to depths of up to 60 meters. when they tried to blame russia, it causes nothing but laughter. why is it russia? if russia can just turn off the tap, the united states still feels like a world john dorm, and the poles and ukrainians most likely did the dirt to work about and is trying to cut off euro from russian gas and wants to impose his own more expensive one my son maybe after some warning that the damage to the north stream pipeline could be irreversible as see, wasn't kicked hello to be unable to fight you official isn't the moscow have expressed concern about potential sabotaged all of the transit rig with the rush of rounding the incidents a terrorist attack, you can find out more details on this story and many others on our website r t dot com i made the was draft in almost half

a century on the african continent. the canyon president has called on officials to implement new measures in order to save lives. given that this is the worst drought in for decades, we must step up, create synergy, marshall more resources, and adopt a more coordinated real time and targeted intervention. the climate crisis has left millions of people. on the brink of starvation with canyon president, william russo chairing a meeting on how to deal with the famine. in july, a u. s. report said that almost 950000 children under the age of 5, acutely malnourished along with 12. can you also faces problems with 1st lies which are crucial to the countries agriculture and food chain. the european commission has maintained a ban on exports of the mainly russian commodity to 3rd world. countries were heard from the farmers who describes the damaging impacts the sanctions of harper. my life is because to be honest, those sanctions have effected doesn't a great way. we cannot plant or even work in our farms that you must remove the

sanctions for us to feed our families and cultivate land effectively. do most of all and can produce with her to laser, and they have been using the for many years. for now i really do not know what's going to happen and they plead for the you to allow russia to send us more and more fertilizer hazy. all these people have been camping here for some days. i came here last week, and still i have not yet managed to get any 1st. mazda is not an offer to. the e. e should stop the sanctions immediately, because here in africa we are the ones suffering ah, for palestinians of died. and another $44.00 are injured off during his rating military rate on a west bank refugee camp. a deadliest incident since his val escalated a crack down on the territory earlier this year. ah, ah.

trouble began when soldiers that sent to arrest 2 shooting suspects surrounded a house in the and suing they lea, a bomb exploded. a gun fight started and the dealer was shot dead. 2 other people then died in protests against the rate and 44 others were injured. we spoke to a local man who you say it is time for the world to find in a way top and respect, palestinians, human life, that the gun at that moment a victim was surprised as they were close to him and shot him as he was climbing the ladder up the wall than he was martyred later, he was wounded. in an hour later, the israeli forces and senior officers entered with a military jeep and shot him in the head in cold blood. enough blood, this is not for the benefit of the occupation and not for the benefit of any one. when we are oppressed people and we have rights, we are human beings and we have rights do not lie to the world. we are not terrorists. we are people worth of respect. what of spain's most prominent regions,

catalonia wants the national government to allow a referendum forward to becoming son country. this isn't the 1st time they can't lonia, which has its own language and culture has been seeking independence. english said yes, on the spanish government is a has adamantly been against stays castillo, they have those maxima list aspirations, which are absolutely not shared by our government. catalonia, who's regional capitalism, mediterranean port city of barcelona, previously tried to secede with a referendum 5 years ago. it resulted in a kale tea crack down by national spanish or 40 why had ruptured and several prominent rebel leaders with jailed that's close to i guess on the on k folks person for the international commission of european citizens at n g. i based in brussels many thanks for joining us on the program. it's nice to see, you know, what do you think of these new cause? we're an independent consul lonia didn't. they would be successful this time around . when people throw the color into victory for independence

and seem to break victory in the 1st of october. in 2017, we have not stop calling for independence to be true. even though i want to own cut and i'm petition suspended to proclaim independent due to the violence threats from the spanish state, who they said i will thread into with bloodshed in the street in case we were taking you through. however, the surprise for catching people from normal sense was not that much did the spanish reaction we know about history? what surprised us was that unfortunately it cut and i'm petition to have any plan to neutralize the spiral and threats. so what's changed in the 5 years? what would cancel learning officials bring up this question again. now are they previously fails? well, we do have to highlight that in catalonia,

almost 4000 citizens, just playing norm or citizens with a professions. they lot of that data being prosecuted, just because they join the rallies in favor of christ fee of self determination and induct induction. i'm not of course, have that has a great impact in catalan society. and one of the proof is that these, the last 11th september, which is a cut on a national day and after that. and then it, we again, catherine and slow that the st. the colonial with our claim for in depth. and then when i went to the determination for governance, so what has changed maybe is the capital politicians realized that they do need to react, they need to be democrats, they need to be our democratic month date. that's what we express in that we're voting and we can be dis, disregard of my own politicians. so once again,

calling to this funny state which has been always say no, they don't want to buy disobeyed in an official greet referendum, but the steel, platinum politicians keep on asking the government condemns the proposed referendum hasn't said so. what do you make of the position? do you think they will ever be willing to compromise? well, the only way to compromise spanish stay despite winning down and we did the 1st full time to cousin champion. so i, if cut on politicians could cut taking it through and a good couple bait the democratic mandate of that people instead of the authority under threats. i'm the fear for the sponges. they'd probably then respond as they would have have to come to terms of maybe if any chance they would have agreed to repeat the referendum. seeing that the cotton and politicians really believed in our rights to, to, to south the technician, but the months,

but they didn't need they, they surrounded and that they went to excellent. went to j. so there's not the really much room for spending wise punish. they have to agree if they own katelyn. politicians said that this better to have an agreement one, it's a cul de sac so they don't. how can the benefit? the spanish estate comes from? i'm imperialist heritage. anna, we have to remember that after after the 1st season, they have never been judge for they creams for the crime. so basically they do not have any motivation to, to, to agree with one only if it's clear that catherine governance has one and maybe change. and the question for one that he's like about self government. but that's not what the catalog democratic and peaceful and majority people. he got the only one so. so difficult on the other. okay. of the international commission of european citizens. many thanks for your time. really appreciate you talking to us

today. thank you. ah. the solomon islands has refused to sign a joint declaration between america and pacific islands, nations at a high profile white house summits saying there is no consensus, and that it needs more time to think it over. solomon islands is not in a position to adopt a declaration this week and will need time to reflect on the declaration and refer the declaration through solomon islands national decision making process, solomon islands. note that the declaration remains under discussion and have yet to enjoy consensus and will need further discussion. washington thought to sign a declaration with the pacific nation same day, preserving regional trade on security and ensuring sustainable development. many accounts of china's influence, other issue on a countries are also skeptical of allying with the u. s. thing that washington's financial promises are insufficient. the current proposed assistance is inconsistent with the contributions of our islands towards the security and

stability of the region, which also supports us interests in the region. the u. s. proposed economic assistance seems pre determined and based on insufficient analysis to put it simply the u. s. economic assistance is insufficient. thank pacific nations refusal to sign the declaration cons just a few months off. the solomon islands signed a security agreement with china. washington raised his concerns, however, failed to dissuade the solomon islands. i sullivan islands from finding the security patch with beijing. but robson, former associate minister of foreign affairs of new zealand phase of the pacific nations wants to pursue their own independent path the solomon islands and the marshall islands to another small group of islands where the burgundy carried out the nuclear tests. they have real kind of issues with united states or less than the help of the people. all of these countries are saying very clearly we're small . what we've amanda l sovereign rights. and particularly it's related to the issue

of me to work with china on the wipers offering them and not just to fall under the types. i think it will be resolved that the states have to back down from it sits to what was really demanding is will give you money, will give you these things if you have nothing to do with china and also being hypocritical about that by claiming that the chinese influence was ation. all these countries, nose was ation, is actually nicer. is a history of dominate, of the united states join now by canada, australia, and new zealand as opposed to the reg. carrie late. and their job is why and caroll these independent states, back in the framework of being under the not are they were pan union, has drafted

a time for an 8th package of sanctions against russia. promising the punishing measures will bite the mobilization and put you threat to use nuclear weapons, a further steps on the escalation part we determined to make the kremlin pay for this further escalation. so today we're together proposing a new package of biting sanctions against the new sanction list will include restriction such as a ban on the import of several russian still products as well as the limiting of access to some european services. the biggest measure is the introduction of an oil price cap. some of the policies have been discussed by the u. s. before, but hadn't been put in place. the measures aim to significantly reduce the inflow of petro dollars to the russian budget by setting a maximum price on russians also feels at a lower rate than current market levels. however, the unions members get to approve the price car, which could potentially take

a while given time it took to agree on an embargo on russian resources. russian president vladimir pierson earlier branded the initiative is stupid and futile in russia will suspend, is exposed to countries participating in price caps that you would pay to be shed by hungary, where the prominence, the claim that the sanctions are destructive. for europe we can safely say that as a result of the sanctions, european people have become poorer while russia has not fallen to its knees. this weapon has backfired with the sanctions. europe has shot itself in the foot. professor of economics and politics jack rasmus, save introducing such a price cap is pointless. g 7 thanks that they can act like a cartel. they think that they couldn't sell global market price for crew below what the market price is. and i think that that's not only arrogant, but it's really great. so it's really not going to work. it doesn't go effect until december 1st to well, in the meantime,

no rush or just redirect it's contracts elsewhere. and salazar, i also elsewhere so they won't even have to buy it at the price crap in europe, the global price of oil per barrel crude is low to mid eighties right now. and a rush is already discounting at this price cap is being said around $55.00 a barrel. well, that's what kind of where russia selling it already. you know, plus the market is going to the global market does. recessions really hit in the 4th quarter? is going to lower the price of the global crude anyway. so, you know, it really doesn't make much sense. the european commission is planning on putting a price cap not only on black gold from russia, but also the countries gas. they expose that as europe face is an ever growing energy crisis and rising prices. rising energy prices have driven tens of thousands on the streets of the check, a capital, the rally organized by the check republic. first group. so demonstrate is gathering

product to protest against the countries membership in past nato and the e. u is the 2nd such protest this month after 70000 people took to the streets 3 weeks ago to protest against sanctions on russia, energy bills, and on supplies to ukraine. meanwhile, in spain, storing inflation is supposing more and more people to stand in long queues for free food from non profit organizations. the lines have risen by 30 percent since last month. as many families spent almost half of their income on food and essentials, many as trying to figure out new ways of making savings where possible, like this local photographer, the studies of the hello, there are expenses that you didn't pay much attention to before. but now you have to tighten your belt in certain areas, especially those tied with energy issues. for example, i tried to turn the light off to put on the air conditioning instead, because this summer it was hot and in winter it will be a bit cold. i'm looking for alternatives to lighting. i'm changing all the lights

in the house to eli d's, but consume lest, as for the shopping list, now i spend 100 years more than i used before. in these conditions, you don't buy fresh meat or fish anymore. you have to look at cheap things, vegetables, you have to be more restrained or so i usually put the washing machine on at night because those are the cheapest. i was for electricity. the shower is another important factor in saving, taking a relaxing shower off to work as change to taking a quick shower. because gas has risen a lot. this affects everyone, regardless of age or salary. life is more expensive with the same salary you had before. an uncertain future is coming, salaries are not rising. i don't know what will happen to us 2 years from now, but it doesn't look good at all. from all on the latest news stories, keep an eye on our website. i t dot com and we'll be back at the top of the hour. ah.
