ah, with breaking news on all t international lead deadly bombing. the crimean bridge wasn't an act of terrorism by ukraine's secret services that, according to russia, that chief investigative who stays the attack was aimed crippling vital pavilion infrastructure. at least 2 shells hit a school in don't yet one of the latest do training attacks on the russian city we have from some local to we're living in the line of fi. i need to take a sleeping pill because i just can't sleep anymore. ukrainian shells can hit absolutely any time. it is very scary watching or see to be child,

but this is our life now. we are forced to see houses collapse and people die on thousands of protesters rally in several western capital over the failure of that government to stop the rise of food on fuel prices with a very welcome. you're watching the weekly here on out to international bringing. you the latest world news updates, along with the stories that those shapes the week. we start this out with breaking news. ukraine's a secret services carried out a terror attack by bombing the crime in bridget killing 3 people. that's according to the head of russia, investigative committee, who was just briefed president putin on the case. well, this is low and most is, there is just, this is no doubt a terrorist attack. all the results of our investigation support. so the conclusion,

it is a terrorist attack prepared by the ukrainian special services which is aimed at destroying a significant piece of civilian infrastructure, which are very important for the russian federation and especially crimea, literacy. in this i see as you just reported, it is indeed, and no doubt a terrorist attack aimed at destroying a critically important piece of really an infrastructure in russia and those who ordered and those who performed this are the ukrainians security services. and really, russian and foreign citizens who helped initiate this attack from a good well, here's the surveillance footage of the blast on the crimean bridge that happened on saturday morning, the russian anti terror committee. phase 3 people died in the explosion. the exact

cause of the bombing is under investigation. the blog. so briefly set a nearby fuel cargo train on fire. at the moment the come up section of the highway remains closed while officials say all the other parts of the bridge are safe to use. the explosion happens often multiple promises from ukrainian officials to target the bridge ukrainian officials on the number of western media out. this has been celebrating with the explosion on the bridge to contribute to rachel moss and explains how the western and ukrainian rhetoric has been changing. and recent weeks with the crimean bridge and node stream incidence hit him thing a 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 it

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 incidents. most recently, there was the crimea bridge explosion on saturday morning in the wake of the attack, ukrainian official 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 of moscow on the coast, bridge to notorious symbols of russian power in ukrainian, crimea of gone down. watson that sin 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. is tonja 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 bump for the soul. his specially given yes. so there was put in se birthday his grade. he received such gift. i wish him more of such gifts that the west congratulated keith 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 floss isn't as o bruce who made an explosion truck 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 you, as defense secretary lloyd austin, has a chronic tendency of offering up. so what accounts for the shift may be washington managed to get keith 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 shovel we met a boy. 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 abba g at the of multiple of those do abdomen eunice, songs, that m a g, a z, a z, addison, a term a dual month in proteins, again gabled it for gym. 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 about 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 walk on the nose with a rolled up newspaper brush. oh was it takes itself there? bombing to nets, clear bombing the nuclear power plant. and they destroyed north stream to another 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 supporting the crimea regional bar. think they're not on the m 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 a, by harmless work. it's,

we know that the u. s. and the britons, the brits are planning offenses of ukrainian our 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 will as cross it to our guest alford desires, little professor, informing you an expert on international order. many thanks for joining us on. the program is good to see you. and so the information that the attack on the crimean bridge was carried out by ukraine has been confirmed by the russian investigative committee head. and is being called an act of terrorism. does this say in your opinion, to the it, to the effect of the amount to state sponsored terrorism by key f? yes, it does, but it is a consistent pattern. it's not the 1st time that they feel good. i mean this. how we say gleeful welcoming off the destruction of

civilian infrastructures. it's of course, a reflection of the kind of attitude that we in the west. i am both a us citizen and i have a piece of the internet law. i mean, we have weaponized since the national law against our political rivals, and evidently what legal, legal and what they do is illegal or legitimate as the case may be. it's very clear and international law that the neighbor convention 949 personally, the 4th geneva convention with regard to the protection of civilian. this is the civilian infrastructure. it is prohibited to destroy civilian infrastructure that constitutes a grave breach of the convention thing, things and $977.00 additional protocol. so the geneva conventions. now,

in principle, the international criminal court could take customer service under articles $7.00 and $8.00 of the staff of ro, but the international criminal court, on, fortunately looking at a record, it entered in force in the year 2002. so that's now 20 years of operation, essentially in the service of washington at brussels. it refused to investigate the war, crimes and crimes against humanity committed enough, gone on. and there been any number of legal re submitted. it has refused to investigate the, the fact that economic sanctions, which are legal, the only ones other ones on chapter 7, w as refuse to investigate whether unilateral

worst of measures that cause paying for thousands of death in the corral, waylon and cuba guerria cause your fabric and you don't get your insulin and you don't get medicine you then? so i mean the direct result of sanctions. is that the supply of food, nutrients, whatever you need to produce medicine is so disruptive that it costs? yeah. i, when i worked with her, i repeatedly asked us that we're going to keep the count to actually to quantify the number of civilian deaths attributable to sanction they haven't done so the international criminal court is not doing. but what bothers me

this consistent pattern that i spoke about, consistent pattern of illegality of revolting against breakables, of international law that are really generally recognized by all civilized nation. and may not attack your 1000000000 infrastructure. you don't care so sorry to interrupt. so it was quite interesting is that on south today, surely off to the attack on the bridge, and we had ukrainian officials, you know, celebrating the bombing. but then shortly after they tried to shift the play mom to rush saying that mosca had attracted. so in bridge, what do you make of this claim? well, the intellectual of this honesty, all, it does not surprise me. i'm, i've worked in the field of human rights, it with the united nation, with any number of non governmental organizations. and i know that human rights

have been instrumental eyes to do exactly the opposite. and so the amount of mind, the manipulation of the narrative, it's so confused whether you're talking about your con, washington pose, once the journal, cnn fox. but then even in europe, even our noise at your side talk here in zurich in switzerland, repeat the same propaganda that comes from washington or comes from brussel. so it is very difficult for the general public unless they are on their internet all the time to get the information they need. but there is not just lies emanating from washington on order from here or from war. so, or from berlin. i mean,

the problem is one of the pressure of information who remember now, and it was only on the 20th of august the terror attack near moscow, where the daughter of alexander was killed in a car bombing, classical gangsters thought classic or kid terrorism. and we have a program we in the united states and israel has a to them also has a 2 of targeted population. remember a 2020, when general. so a mining was blown up the airport. in fact, i mean all of these are major violations of international law and all of these could be investigated barbie. it's an awesome criminal court. you could have indictment against those in here or in washington or in brussels who

have ordered these crime protection does not happen because the i c. c is in the service of washington and of brussel humans. right? yes, i'm not know. thank you very much for your time. really appreciate your insight for desires no professor on for me. you an expert on international order really appreciate your time. thank you. sure. well corresponded among calls, road, hit the road, leading from the mainland to crimea to see how traffic is moving along. back in the aftermath of saturdays attack, we are approaching the crimea bridge right now. as you can see, there is absolutely no travel here at the moment. well, we're passing several intersections, we saw that the police were of blocking cars off as we understand they're living on a few cars through so that not to over load the bridge at the moment because repair works are still taking place. there are 2 lanes going each way to and from,

from the agency. people are stopped at this point according to the local authorities repair works. ive been done already and all the necessary materials have been ordered there given it a few weeks. but as we understand, train service is working normally, both right and passenger trains are running on their previous schedules, the local administration and local cossack organization. i'd do everything they can to make sure that so all these drivers who are stocked because of the explosion on the crimea bridge so that they have everything they need. they have a sense that there are doctors here. also there is a kitchen where they can have some food and we also talked to the volunteers who are here, day and night in order to make this stay of the driver's here as comfortable as

possible. now, should of, for, for funny, if we got a call from the administration yesterday, they sat, a cook was needed. i quickly got my team together and we made a decision to volunteer on the ground to help people, to feed them, to make everything better. this us having his own full organized a temporary parking spot for the vehicles going to crimea and back across the bridge. hot meals and tea are being offered to people. everything works 247 we provide everything drivers might need a main office and a medical center have also been set up. we will work as long as needed. everything we're providing is for free. the regional and local administrations help a lot, as well as businesses. we're doing our best to solve this problem together. drafting for regular private cars has been partially restored on the crimea bridge just a few hours after the explosion at the moment. there are 2 lanes going each way for

cars to go to and from crimea. however, there are still traffic jams there as security measures have been increased. meanwhile, people are still trying to get to him from crimea and don't have enough time to stand in that long traffic jams. and most of them, including trucks with goods for crimea, are using very services. now we're standing at one of the boards which is accommodating. several ferry ships here and the other taken both of fright, drugs and passenger cars as well. one ferry can take up to $100.00 vehicles and it takes about 2 and a half hours to go to the city of courge on the crimean peninsula. romano call for have r t. crimea of those, if you just joining us, we're bringing you breaking news. this, our russia, that chief investigator has confirmed that the bombing of the crimean bridge was

a terror attack by ukraine. joining me with a date house now, his correspondence. marina caused her of a marina thanks to coming in. so he's been a pretty kale think we can, has an a, could you just talk us through the events and bring it up to speed on the latest? absolutely. well, the instance started on saturday morning at 6 am. locals heard an explosion which was followed by a massive fire. and then part of the bridge collapse, the 3 people died. we saw ukrainian officials tweets in their excitements and how happy there were that this happened. and that this was a great birthday present for vladimir putin who celebrated his birthday the day before. at 1st they were saying that they were alluding to the fact that this was a great achievements on their behalf. then they started accusing russia, saying that this is somehow a conspiracy theory, and russia is try that this was all roches fault and that they blew, blew up their own bridge. then they started saying, oh, hold on a 2nd, let's wait until we get the results of the investigation. while the results of the

investigation are and process, chief investigators said that, according to what they found was that it was ukrainian special services who are behind it. let's listen to what he had to say and then a lot a little bit more will slow, no motion damage to sky. this is no doubt a terrorist attack and all the results of our investigation support. so the conclusion, it is a terrorist attack prepared by ukrainian special services, which is aimed at destroying a significant piece of civilian infrastructure, which is very important for the russian federation and especially crimea. what's interesting is that he also added that russian and foreign citizens were involved in helping facilitate this terrorist attack. so this is what i'm curious to hear more about and hopefully will, they'll give us more details of perhaps we'll get it tomorrow. but as it's developing and this is something again we had even. busy p and countries and

officials from european countries like for example, as sonia and even poland, who were not only saying that ukraine is behind it, but also applauding them for it's because again, the bridge. this was a target all along and we've heard from the landscape presidential advisor, that as soon as they found an opportunity to destroy it, to blow it up, they would. and i guess they've found that opportunity. but because the bridge, of course we all knew that it was a target, so there were special equipment salt at the entrance, which is supposed to check for chemicals for drugs or explosives. so this is how our, i guess, i assume at the moment this is just purely my guess because of what he said, the rosters, chief investigator, that ross and, and foreign citizens help facilitate it. so perhaps you mean someone into personnel working at there at the track point, checking it. this is these details is what i'm curious to find out more about that as soon as i do, i will bring it right here to you moving. i really appreciate that fast r t correspond to marina cause of oh,

let's go now to russia's dawn yet we're public. we're at least 2 civilians have been wounded after the latest ukrainian shelling of donnie had city, according to local officials. it comes as residential areas remain under constant attack. my calves forces has some footage shown the aftermath of one of the recent ukrainian strikes when a residential building was hit. early on saturday, local officials have at least 3 civilians were killed and 6 more wounded across the don. yes, republic. with more than 250 shells that said to have been fired from ukrainian positions. and just one day, we heard from some of the don, yes. get locals who witnessed the violence. yeah, not at all what i live on the 2nd floor here 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 room, felt the warmth on my neck. i touched my head and realized that it was cut. there

was a fountain of blood, but fortunately it wasn't too serious when your school is latha worth and that i know all of this is the central street. there are different sharps and 1st floor in this building and people live at bar. no, i need to take a sleeping pill because i just can't sleep any more. ukrainian shells can head it. absolutely. any time it's done with the garage, no, the number that it is very scary watching or sit have been child. but this is our life. now. we are forced to see houses collapse and people die. and officials in donnie ask also said a local school was targeted by ukrainian forces. at least 2 shells had the 3rd floor of the building causing heavy damage. no casualties have been reported as no children were there at the time of the attack. the result is inflation rates has hit double digits with food prices rising by a record high of 14 percent across the u. just in the past month. the search has sparked public outrage in several countries as protested flooded the streets in

germany, italy, austria, and the czech republic demanding an end to some common assault on their pockets. thousands of italians are branded that local price is a mockery and say they refuse to pay some of their bills, $1.00 in prague, thousands rally against the government's handling of the economy. the sid day off to a summit of european leaders was held in the city across in vienna, austria, and say that politician should listen to the own citizens. instead of playing along with lobbyists in the e, u, and nato. what people from across the you are condemning the governments, but failing to curb the price hikes is what else? some of the europeans are saying. oh yes, we have been waiting for a long time for the government to stop acting and to relieve us from these huge cos, ranging from power to basic food. and it's not all the basic food these days, but almost everything. and the government pretends everything is fine. don't the

yellow bed care? why are we paying? because we can't take it anymore. there are people who don't have enough money for the whole month and who have to choose whether to pay the rent to pay the bills. the price increases of this last period or intolerable considering that the extra profits of corporations are getting bigger and bigger than that is it or so on. the situation is very clear. now, it is very clear that due to the overall events, the war and the consequences of the actions taken against russia, we will have to deal with considerable restrictions in our industry. i assume that companies will increasingly go bankrupt. the process of insolvency has been prolonged, but this reduction cannot be maintained forever. and i assume that the middle classes in particular, will fall to their knees. if you consider that winter is just around the corner, and if you want to buy your gas system or your oil burner today, and you have deliveries in march and april, you can only imagine what is going on in people's minds. so over in france,

local drive is facing long queues at the pumps. as they grapple with supply problems, the country's energy minister has admitted that at least 20 percent of french gas stations are experiencing shortages. some who are is the and say they're struggling to keep that caused top top. crystal happy to know i left paris. i did not understand because there was no gas. i went to ane, there was none there too. i came back 2 days later, there was none. and now in fact, i haven't been able to take the car out for a week because i am completely out of money. and you see people in the streets with empty jerry cans and all that. yes, this resolved. i've been to several gas stations in the last 24 hours and i'm still a bit worried about what's going on. so it's a source of general concern. no gas, transportation is not working very well. it's worrying. and germany, small businesses are being hit hard by the inflation and energy prices. economists

say the country could slide into recession within the next year. the government reportedly phase and exodus of local producers, as business becomes increasingly unprofitable in the country. the head of india's export organizations that say the e u crisis is now impacting trade ties with the asian country. there are visible symptoms of recession in the u. energy crisis is looming, that by is delaying orders from india. they are concerned but hopeful publisher and economist like a hom essays the crisis could we take critical point for europe leading to a revolutionary tidal wave of public protests. i think the worse and all the time because the situation will get more and more severe for the people, they have less money, the prices are climbing and the politicians don't do anything against me. so in my opinion, this will climb and once they will be that high,

that is critical. math is on the screen. we are seeing that in germany, when the world fell down, that too many people were on the street in france, they were able to, to knock that people down until now. but now the project is climbing more and more and us, i will things that will get rid of the politicians who are in there at the minute from such a situation only the us seem to benefit, but not really that is too short minded from them. of course, they have not only interest in doing that, people who are very well connected to the us are high, heavy support, but for this course and this program, my said this is very short minded because the europe be especially the german that only put that in on the radio continent, when they use germany or when they knocked on the geometry economy and that use

the german people as, as they're so parker. many thanks for joining us here on naughty international and for all the latest updates. keep an eye on our website. if you dot com ah, i ah with welcome to was apart a decade ago when historians were revisiting the.
