ah ah, ah, midwestern and ukrainian celebrations of the dead, the bombing of the crimean bridge, russia flung the reaction, is revealing what it calls the terrorist nature of the key. every scene under nato hotness. at least 2 shells. have a school in dawn. yes. can the latest ukrainian attack on the russian city, where from some locals who are living in the line of fire? i need to take a sleeping pill because i just can't sleep anymore. ukrainian shells can hit it absolutely any time. it's very scary watching r c to being shell, but this is our life now. we are forced to see how to collapse and people die. and in a week's top story, the us lawmakers from saudi arabia, ass, royal,

and back sabbath following the opec plus decision to slash or output. the way i'd say is washington is fully responsible for its own energy crisis. with very, we're welcome to you. you're watching the weekly here on our see international bringing you the latest world news updates along with the stories the shapes, the week. we start with the crimea bridge, which has now reopened after a bombing. they claim the lives of 3 people and damaged one of the highway sections . vehicles are now crossing in both directions with the railway lines also open for cargo on the passenger trades. these picture shows some of the 1st traffic that is allowed to move across following the incidence. civilian cars are accompanied by police officer being thoroughly inspected before entering the bridge. the collapse section of the highway remains closed. official say all the other parts of the bridge are safe to use. and hayes the surveillance footage off saturdays blast the

russian anti terror committee. phase 3 people died in the explosion. the exact cause of the bomb indies under investigation. the bloss to also briefly set a nearby fuel cargo train on fire. meanwhile, one chinese official one that sabotage of critical infrastructure could spock a dangerous passage. the explosion on crimean bridge less than a month after a norse, from sabotage opened pandora's box of destroying, keen for structure. and once it becomes new normal, the whole world will face raising security threats. ukrainian officials and number of western media outlets have been celebrating the deadly explosion on the bridge. russia has called the incident a terrorist attack. the reaction of the key regime to the destruction of civilian infrastructure reveals its doris nature that has contributed rachel moss and explains how the western and ukrainian rhetoric has been changing in recent weeks

with the crimean bridge unknown stream incidence hinting it possible, sabotaged the problem with the west empowering allies to be its attack dogs against russia is that sometimes the proxy managers to chew through its leash or its harness. it then starts running around doing its business all over the neighbors yards while loudly barking its excitement and even causing simple minded creatures to bark along with it. that is until the master shows up and drags him back into the yard and gets it under control. this is exactly what seems to have happened now between the west and its allies in 3 separate recent incidence. most recently there was the crimea bridge explosion on saturday morning in the wake of the attack. ukrainian officials celebrated on social media, crimea, the breach the beginning. everything illegal must be destroyed, everything stolen must be returned to ukraine. everything occupied by russia must be expelled. to guided missile cruise, a most well on the coast,

bridge to notorious symbols of russian power in ukrainian, crimea of gone down. watson. it's in line russkies. representatives of european states also cheered what appeared to have been a terrorist act. i believe this target has been around for a very long time. it's tanya certainly welcomes this and congratulations, ukrainian special operations units who are expected to be behind the separation motivation and luscious at it says it's a bone for the soul. his specially given yesterday was put in a birthday is correct. he received such gift. i wish him more of such gifts as of the west, congratulated heave while cavalierly treating the destruction of civilian infrastructure . like it was a personal job at russian president vladimir putin. on his birthday, kind of like, you know, neighborhood, teenagers had thrown raw eggs in his garage door, some western media pin, the incident on ukrainian special services effectively echoing the kremlin assertion that keith behaves like a terrorist state. but by saturday afternoon,

there was a distinct shift in tone. a ukrainian official close to zalinski tried to shift blame away from heave, implying that russia blew itself up. now seriously, f is betrayed to eliminate leadership of defense ministry before personnel change effort, bees and knocked down mis put his bridge explosion. defense minister can now blame f as b for the future. so flaws isn't as old prius, who made an explosion. trucker arrived from russia, the pentagon for once, didn't really have much to say, interestingly enough, not even some spin or encouragement in favor of ukraine as us defense secretary lloyd austin has a chronic tendency of offering up. so what accounts for the shift may be washington managed to get cave back on leach sometime during the day on saturday. a similar pattern was evident after zalinski called for a nato preemptive strike on russia last thursday shuffle we met

a boy the. what should nato do? eliminate the possibility of russia using nuclear weapons. i once again appeal to the international community as it was before february 24th. we need preemptive strikes so that russia would know what awaits them if they use nuclear weapons, not the other way around, to wait for rushes nuclear strikes and then say, oh no. okay, then take this by friday, zalinski was already trying to gaslight every one and pretending that he didn't actually say what he said. and i said you have to do preventive kinks. not a dex. yahoo! just goes out this short that am but g at the, of multiple of those do opera and doing the songs at that. m a g a. there was that us and the term a dual month impurities ago gabled it poor jim. so again, what happened that led zelinski to back pedal on his statement? perhaps he felt the pressure of the western hand that feeds him his endless weapons in cash. but which clearly isn't too keen on having keeps barker,

nuclear football match, or actually setting off world war 3. also recall what happened in the wake of the attacks on the nord stream pipelines that run from russia to europe right afterwards. colin's former foreign minister tweeted, thank you usa, that host which stayed up for a few days is now deleted amid the ongoing debate over who's actually responsible. several voices in the us, including some prominent members of the establishment, are growing less shy of overtly blaming the us for the attack. so what made sikorsky decide days later that publicly thanking his pals, america maybe wasn't such a good idea. perhaps washington made an appearance, gave him a little whack on the nose with a rolled up newspaper. russia always the text itself, there bombing to ned square bombing the nuclear power plant. and they destroyed north stream 2 and now the bridge list, a normal key of propaganda. and you can look at history every,

every time and conflict, something like this happens. ah, it's the well, the enemy, who did it and trying to blame somebody else. it's obvious that russia wouldn't blow the bridge, it needs himself for, for the supporting the crimea region. thing is pass all that. the u. s. was also aware of tons to bond. the crimean bridge, considering the training officials have quoted a legitimate target for months now. well, i think they're not on the that did not on, you know, i think van wolf, we know for example that of us has to confirm each target which is hit by harmless rockets. we know that did the u. s. and the britons. the grits are planning offenses of ukraine an hour together with the ukrainians and such and such an act of whatever terrible war how you call it. i would not have been done by keith without a support or at least knowledge of the western, the supporters. a former ukrainian prime minister has caused the acts of sabotage

in moscow after he praised the bombing of the crimea in bridge. i've seen that the ukraine and me there that creating the media report that the, that this is the security service of ukraine. well, i don't know whether it's true or no, but what am i am sure about that these bridge has to be completely on the mind collapsed and damaged. i would be delighted if those who committed these kind of right full, i would see, act of sabotage. ah, they will do the same in russia. i mean, in the moscow for me it's a clear sign that there are behind this attack terrorist attack. so me not the surprise. as the rest of the sage said in the summer, the bridge was a target for them since a long time since it was built. so. so me,

it's like pointing finger to kill if without any doubt it's already a long time that ukraine has proved to be a terrorist to state. i mean, they have keel the several of our commanders, the head of the d. p r. we service the facts and they didn't hide about that. so it's not something new is just that. now russia has to officially a knowledge that ukraine unitary state and treat as such. when out rushes don't. yes, republic, where are these 2 civilians have been wounded off the latest ukrainian shelling of don't yet 50. according to local officials, it comes with dental areas remain under constant attack by kid forces. here's some footage showing the aftermath of one of the recent ukrainian strikes when a residential building was struck. early on saturday, local officials said that at least 3 civilians were killed and 6 more wounded across the don. yes,

were public with authority saying that more than 200 shows were fired from ukrainian positions. just in one day. we heard from locals on the streets. you know what i live on the 2nd floor have is my apartment, or rather what is left of it? in the evening where my family and i were going to sleep, i saw a bright flash smoke and dust rose. i called out into the co, a room felt the warmth of my neck. i touched my head and realized that it was cut. there was a fountain of blood, but fortune. it wasn't too serious. you know, when it's, this is the central street. there are different shops and 1st floor in this building and people live above. no, i need to take a sleeping pill because i just can't sleep anymore. ukrainian shells can hit it absolutely any time the number that it is very scary watch in our city been shalt. but this is our life now. we are forced to see houses collapse and people die. and officials and on. yes, cool. so said

a local school was targeted by ukrainian forces. at least 2 shells, hit the 3rd floor of the building, causing heavy damage. no casualties have been reported as no children with their at the time of the attack. meanwhile, ukraine's that, that russian forces have reported, he showed civilian infrastructure in the city of zap auto share. these on verify the images of the aftermath of the attack with key claiming multiple people have been killed and injured. russia repeatedly denies targeting civilians and infrastructure. moscow has not yet commented on the incident. they don't, yes, guns, no guns. republics, as well as the kiss on the onset, potosi regions and now officially pulse of russia following the signing of their accession into law by president putin. on wednesday, the unification comes off, the locals, and the territories voted in favor of the move and russian will make as along with the nations constitutional court ratified the joining of the new regions. however, ukraine and its western allies have condemned the referendums as an illegitimate

sham, and refused to recognize the results. rush as ministry of defense says they have evidence that ukrainian forces have been using informants to identify targets that include civilians. not easy coast on, spoke to a man who revealed places of mass gatherings to obtain a reward and now faces up to 2 decades in prison. we should warn you that this report includes an interview with a person in custody who could possibly be speaking on the juris bribes and brainwashing are the favorite tools of caves, intelligence agents on the russian home front in the dawn bass. they look for people eager to sell the lives of their neighbors for a thin wood of bills. dennis here is one of those who fell for the temptation. me a whistle somewhat of long. i went up for a walk with my dog. i saw

a guy. i asked him for cigarettes and he gave it to me. i talked to him and he offered me a job. i asked him what kind of job. he said nothing much. i just need addresses whether a mass gatherings of people, young. i went to look and gave him the address. he went to check when he returned, he said that he was satisfied with everything and offered me the equivalent of $80.00 for one address. but locations of russia's military excuse or supply depos were of no interest for this client. all he wondered, was where mass gatherings of civilians were in a town cut off from water and electricity supply. there can be only a handful of such places, mainly points of humanitarian aid distribution, whole piles of her baby, food, diapers, and medicine. leave no questions as to what this place used to be. this sports arena was repurposed, it served as a major warehouse for humanitarian aid,

where the whole town of several dentist flocked to because that was something that they badly needed and still badly need. but now it stands, whole destroyed and burned down to ashes by the ukrainian military. this is one of the 1st places obliterated by ukraine's artillery. shortly after denise submitted the information by then it had dawned on him already what he was responsible for and who his mysterious contact was. he wasn't phased by the realization though, and stuck to his newly found blood business. 0 one also he gave me the money and left there was shelling at this address and i heard from people that civilians died . that then he asked for more addresses. i found a hostile, where civilians were given water and gave the address to him. and 2 days later, there was shelling there after he was interested in other addresses, and i gave him the address of the hotel where humanitarian aid was given out. a

thick stench of ash is still very present in the air here. this is one of the places that the ukrainian military had destroyed off to getting an anonymous tip off. apparently came from someone who relocated to several units from western ukraine. it came from over there, but the locals here, they don't know why the man the foreman chose this place, because according to them, the military, the russian soldiers, they have never been here. dennis hands tremble now as he faces up to 20 years in jail for state treason. they didn't shake. they didn't slip though when he was providing more coordinates, which entailed another deadly strike, oregon group, there was a strike over there. one unexploded shell is still stuck on the roof. then another strike came over there. the guy was sitting here, it was around 10 p. m. he was killed by a fragment. for the 1st time dennis has the opportunity to look in the eye of

a person. he marked as a target own key of artillery maps. as a play, a short message, the victim passed with us. the soldier to those people are scum. what else can be said about them? people rebuild the infrastructure and they keep destroying it. and it looks like the shelling come with help of informers over paula for it's too late now. there's nothing to return to the ukrainian command has been systemically, targeting vital civilian infrastructure elements in this war. toontown, a mac is done of report seen from the dumbass, r t loyal bank, stubborn. that's what the us lawmaker has called saudi arabia over re adds move to reduce oil outbursts as part of the opec plus decision. the u. s. has played the kingdom for the rising living costs in the country, but the saudi ministry of state say, is washington itself is responsible for the economic crunch. well, the reasons are nothing to do with crude oil supply. every kitchen table cost is

going to go up, not down. and i realized costs are going up from food and i was able to bring gasoline down well over a $1.60, by his engine, not because of what the russians and the sizes not finish. the idea of the tug doing would do this to harm the us or to be in any way politically involved this. absolutely not correct at all with due respect to reason. you have high prices in the united states because you have a refining shortage that has been in existence for more than 20 years. you haven't built refineries in decades. i think plus all to, to cut oil production by $2000000.00 barrels per day starting next month. and they've caused anger among us lawmakers with cause to reexamine ties with key oil producers who they are led to damaging washington's economic interests. this comes off the years of the u. s. praising the kingdom as a strategic partner and supplying the country with large amounts of weapons. some

of even call to the us to withdraw military support from saudi arabia and the united arab. and our pe plus decision has a code in the european union as well, according to foreign policy chief, joseph burrell. the decision to cut oil production was a response to the e plans with the price camp. this comes as brussels announced an 8th package of sanctions on russia, which includes a price cap and further restrictions on the maritime transportation of russian crude oil and petroleum products. however, the piece won't really that russia would stop exports, in cases where applies cap was implemented. well, the host of all is, well, the park program walks on, a boy co told us that more countries are pursuing their own interests while going against us influence. the white has already described this move as a hostile act, and it's a very interesting wording because if you start from a promise that the rest of the world is supposed to be serving your interest and

everything that's for your interest would be a hotel act. but i want to remind you, i'm sure our viewers also know that, that saudi arabia, in many of the opec members are considered traditional us alice and the fact that they have pretty much ignore the very, very active american law being shows that things are changing in the world and countries are starting to pursue that own interest. a white house has yet again tried to put all the blame on russia. but i think the, the current division shows the even closest american alice and no longer paying attention to anything that washington is saying. or doing directly pursuing their own interest by them. misters has done everything to the alley and made my menu with allies. the ear is the only one that seems to be left in the so called american camp. and surprisingly, the ear is, you know, in the book of countries, it has absolutely no oil reserve. it would be interesting to see how they will be

doing with, with that situation. certainly, they will be blaming russia. but i mean, again, you cannot warm up with the homes of your citizens with blaming somebody. so it's, we are also very, very interesting time. unlike the year, the united states does have its own strategic all reserves and the bite an administration has been living happily when it's over the last year. the besides the reserve diminished by almost a 3rd from more than 600000000 barrels to some with about 400000000 barrels. and the vitamin ministration announce yet again, that they are going to release another $10000000.00 to try to heat, to try to ease the markets and those, those additional barrels will hit the market right around the time of the mid term elections that may provide some respite but the problem is that when you are emptying your reserves are on such a short term perspective, the time to pay for that will come and it will come very soon because those

reserves will have to be replenished and they will have to be replenished with much higher prices, so it's essentially they are trying to use that strategic reserves to aid the biden's standing in the polls. but even if they win, even the democrats, when they will have to address that problem, a couple of months down the line on them in a couple of years, a couple of months and adding insult to injury, joe, finding himself is being marked over the opec production cuts as off the he was caught on camera dropping the f bomb while trying to act tough during a personal check. the president says no one apps with abiding good and peers. opec plus has done just that. i mean, other than opec bicycles, china stairs, russia, et cetera. joe biden, no one the biden. opec. when you start begging, you know, the gulf states when you are beg,

middle eastern countries have changed their already declared policies. it's an act of desperation as an act of short sighted foolishness. when the solution is literally right in your hand, the relationship with us in gulf states has not been particularly good at any point in recent memory. we have regimes that are propped up by the united states, but still resent the united states for their infiltration and meddling. so it's not that that the relation has gotten considerably worse. they just weren't very good to begin with with by didn't try to convince them to change their mind. it's really showing that he himself was unwilling to change his mind. all that would need to happen to end the fuel shortage is to get rid of all the sanction that prevent american companies, individuals from buying fuel. if biden was simply changing his mind, then he wouldn't have to beg saudi arabia to change their mind. india have abstain from voting on a western bugs,

draft resolution of the un human rights council condemning the alleged abuse of ethnic minorities in china. while new delhi didn't explain why it decided not to cast a vote. it was among 11 countries and made the same choice. 900 other members of the council voted against the resolution. defeating the motion box by 17 nations including the u. s. and the u. k. which criticized china's treatment of its muslim minority. the resolution was a follow up to a recent report, one of the former un high commissioner of human rights, michelle boston let that expose the ledge human rights violations and seen john going to thomas territory and northwest china. 100 many ethnic minority groups being said, the countries that supported the draw resolution propagated falsehoods and use the u. when as a tool for interference in china's affairs. we got a reaction from former professor of political economy and a senior united nations development program consulting dr. gotten who said human

rights concerns might not be the real reason behind the motion. you need a very useful tool for legitimizing national interest. not necessarily for high moral reasons. this particular vote is an illustration of the continuing conflict between the united states and china out of course, the allies and not the states. and it doesn't have any deeper significance than that. and i do not believe human rights will be real reason of this particular book . because the issue in germany extremely well known on the world community as far as india, china to concerned this actually is a very marginal significance there of course, other wider questions about you could make ties trade. but all of these issues depend on what happens with the border negotiations into a chinese negotiations are at

a delicate stage. there may be 3rd parties who do not wish this stalemate to end. well, we also heard from a so then drug co connie peace activist and former director of operations of the indian prime minister's office. he says india is maintaining a policy of non alignment and strategic goes on to me. india has always followed an independent foreign policy, which in the last year she required non lined foreign policy. and now it is why strategy autonomy india is too big country and do self respecting our nation to be dictated by any power. india has very rightly abstained from the war and not gone along with the western powers because the western follows i using human rights as

a stick to beat china. but if we look historically, the greatest wiley does, of human rights have in the western nations themselves. if we look at the global developments today, it is obvious that the western domination, investor, and have money, especially when the dominance of the united states of america, is it possibly coming to an end? the west is declining. an issue is rising. denmark will hold a general election in november, 7 months ahead of schedule. the prime minister facing renewed pressure over the 2020 mink scandal. massive frederickson has called a snap election setting november. the 1st is polling day came undefined after government order the floating of the countries at $17000000.00 mink population believing that we're carrying a mutated variance of the corona virus. but it turns out that the scientists were

wrong and the decision was found to be unlawful. prompted a public backlash while free to extend and her social democratic party are expected to top. the poll analysts say bell and likely to lose that parliamentary majority. we spoke to danish pakistani also, and anti racism campaign. battery karate, who says the danish pm is trying to say face the prime minister was in the parliament after the debate and she had to close the debate. and she acknowledge dear, that they have made several mistakes in the handling of mink killing. but she said she was quite arrogant, and she said that what we did, it is we did to save the public. meaning that was killing of mean was necessary for that. it would not spread and caused

more corona in the country. so she in inwardly not accept that it was a legal issue, are a question of knowing in competency, but i think she wanted to tell people that i'm a strong for prime minister and i did in the interest of the public in them. thanks for keeping us company here with our team tonight. i will be back at the top of the a ah

turn welcome to wells acquired a decade ago when historians were revisiting the origins of the 1st world war. the term sleepwalking became very trendy in describing how divergent factors and self serving actors tangled together to produce one of the biggest catastrophes in human history. as the world enters yet another period of tribe. are we still some be leading? or are we being deliberately lock into an obese? well, to discuss that i'm now joined by benjamin abil, all also all how the was brought war to ukraine. mr. abdullah was great to see you . thank you very much for your time. thank you. thank you for having me. now. the title of your book, how the was brought war to ukraine is quite self explanatory.
