a living in unlicensed abundance. gold mines are t correspondent cannibal latasha has the story. this is the pits, the very bottom rungs of a thriving elicit economy. john, his bag is filled with abandoned mind shops like this, with tunnels that continue to dot its landscape. and really why it was once known as a city of gold. this out, i guess it's on one and i came here to mind gold. and i've been doing this for about 5 years. but i love my parents back home as well as my wife and my 2 kids. the discovery of gold and diamond around 1852, brought the full weight of the british empire to south africa, both militarily and economically, to control the resources and the profits from this colony. but in the early 20th century, the african national congress was formed to lead a defiance movement against the colonialists. and when more and more black men

refused to dig up the colonial companies, the british imported even cheaper labor from south africa, the neighboring country. a legacy of migration that continues to day, south africa and some of the deepest gold mines in the world up to 5 kilometers down. in some instances, illegal miners like these i know locally and some a summers, which literally translates to the gamblers and slew of desperate undocumented foreign nationals who come down in mind these shops for the little gold that's left on the ground. he's really series. i'm one of the tools that we use are chisels and hammers. we also use pans and water to wash up the gold. there was still a lot of gold left under ground and we work in dangerous conditions. these men mostly originate from the saw to some bob away, and we're going big men and women continue to stream down to south africa,

attracted by the seine minerals and it's a big and coordinated business. but it's also inherently risky and fraught with danger. but who is actually funding these activities? as a lot of us, we just sell the gold, the resellers, buy it from us, why we don't work for them. we do this work for ourselves. meaning theft has been around since my aiming itself. and in some instances, illegal gold miners will pay legitimate gold miners up to $800.00 for the use of the access cuts to clock in and out like regular workers. sometimes an entire line of people is paid from security guards all the way to winding engine drivers and minus. but the costs are far less for band and wayne chefs like these by this bill . fraught with danger. hammer told alan busy over them. good deal out if one of us is injured inside the mine, we help each other. we take him out, take him to hospital and then visit him there. but around 3 years ago we had 3

fatalities here. more gold has come out of south africa than the rest of the world combined with over a 150 years of tradition. that the huge 2nd to remarket for golden south africa. and it's the 2nd hand jewelers and the registered precious metal dealers that i suspected of financing this elicit activity to darrell yoga is the most money i've ever made is about $1200.00. i can send it home and my family can buy the things that they need. in true capitalist form. when cost rose big, mining houses picked up their profits and left. they left pits like this, littered all across the province. and they left the little bit of gold. there's left here for these men to fight over. got a bill in charge of he and john is a tug boat evacuating

civilians from a conflict zone in the her son region has been targeted by gunfire from us. yet on identified individuals, no one was reported harmed in the attack. the local residents were being transferred to 2 concerns about ukrainian shelling in the area was also an attack on civilians at reported in the den. yes. at republic on choose the areas housing civilians. i say with a ukrainian or to re fire, said to have damage to kindergarten restaurants, residential buildings. nevertheless, the reason it's undergoing a vast reconstruction process and r t remote cos read can tell us about that. several towns and villages in the nest people's republic have been completely destroyed by ukraine and artillery shelling right now. we're in a town offer vol, navarra. most of the city looks like this. according to the mayor of vol, navarra, 80 percent of people's houses have been destroyed. now,

many russian regions have been fast with rebuilding of the city. now this particular apartment building is being built by she labinski region in russia. and this is just one of many bridges who are working all over the nest people's republic trying to rebuild infrastructure and the lives of the locals. richard miller school who is interested for example, 85 percent of the cities infrastructure was damaged, residential houses and apartments $22.00 houses are listed for demolition. we have one problem now which is the gas supplying fighting on the front line left the gas pipeline broken. and the head of the region promised to build a new pipeline from mary opal with the help of the russian federation. and by the beginning of december, this problem should be resolved apart from restoring road construction of brand new apartment buildings shall i. best region is also rebuilding schools and

kindergartens. now this particular kindergarten was nearly destroyed by ukrainian artillery shelling. now it is ready to welcome kids come december. now this is just one of many schools and kindergarteners that were destroyed and now completely restored for the kids to attend down as will of emma have of, and i suffered her direct head to our society. it completely demolished the will and re danish restoration, to repay tended to major overhauls, everything was restored, the entire building has been renovated every rain. we also have an old building wherein stations are being completed. this is a typical scene for the major part of the city of all nevada. now this is a future construction site. as you can see, this house has been reduced to rubble by the ukrainian artillery locals. hope that this soon will become

a thing of the past from on call for. if archie vulnerable had the nets for public me law. something else to tell you about an excerpt from an r t documentary about russian war journalists has been shown during a meeting of the un security council. it was done to highlight the challenge is media crews face while reporting from conflict zones. a stick it up with this with almost a 1000000. what really by me my on fixed, by your license to accomplish, you did a couple of new when you money because underwear and you know, for things not school preferred. you was additionally at least so, but i think my son is more knowledge of you, but also the should school upset of my son and i submitted them to the redundant couple. please be honest

with me, but me war and cheese. mm sure, sure, diane, you believe it issue here, obama? yup. rock will be zoom out still in our office here for good. what there is and what does it weigh? so it will ship them over couple, approaching me more throughout the subway. this is all you simply see mario has do with professional we wish i know if the store has again with. a family break my was a georgia with yet pretty extraordinary footage there just to point out the full version of the documentary currently still in progress is expected to premiere next month. you'll

of course, be able to watch it on r t dot com. ah. all right, with less than a week now i before crucial midterm elections in the u. s. a republican governor has lost dought fleming. much of the media remains fixated on the 2020 election, ignoring the pressing needs of people to they you are in a bubble. if you think anybody's talking about what happened in 2020 or talking about mar, log and all that, i know the press love to talk about it. people are talking about what is happening, their pocketbooks every single day. mean, well and you poll has reveal nearly 80 percent of americans quiz, believe their nation is out of control from a white house press secretary jen sucky say's her fellow democrats are worried that momentum has shifted towards the republicans. people are fearful about where the momentum is going and some of these races. yes, there are very encouraging signs, like the record, early vote numbers,

but numbers and some of the house races are not where they should be. i think it's a reflection of the fact that democrats are kind of worried about where this is going right now, and it's felt worse over the last week or so. talk show host and political commentator steve, mullin berg believes the failure to get a handle on storing price estate site is playing badly on the reputation of the democrats right now. inflation is out of control. prices are just about everything out of control and you have an administration that is not even admitting it not having and admitting that it's a problem in our country, but basically forming it as a worldwide problem that is out of the control of this current administration. and people, people understand, you see, what happened was, is that the democrats put all their eggs in the abortion basket. back in june, the u. s. supreme court overturn roe v wade, which had given women the right to an abortion. and now they supreme court said it

should be up to the states. well, all heck broke loose. and the democrats decided that would be what they would run on. well, abortion is paul and down the list of voter concerns. down to about 7 or 10 on the live and what's at the top, the economy, inflation crime. and i don't even think that people are honest with the posters. i think that a lot of them are afraid to answer questions and be identified as evil. republicans don't forget joe biden classified mag, republicans as a semi fascist. so who in their right mind wants to tell a stranger on the bone or yeah, i'm voting republican, so i don't even think that these polls are accurate. i think it's worse for the democrats now, the u. s. government has been widening its control over major global online platforms under the guise of a supposed to campaign to retire dis information. that's according to classified state documents, published by the investigative news outlet. the interest shipped with more than

that. here's our t 's, maria phenomena big brother is bigger than you would ever think. not only is the american government to watch in its citizens, but it is also censoring them. that's according to a huge story, released by the intercept, whose journalists looked at hundreds of documents and emails, mainly obtained by leagues to show how the department of homeland security or d h. s, and f. b. i have for years been closely collaborating with top social media platforms like twitter and facebook to sensor various kinds of content under the better fighting dis information. the department plans to target inaccurate information on a wide range of topics, including the origins of the covert. 19 pandemic and the efficiency of coven 19 vaccines, racial justice, the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and the nature of your support, ukraine. toys are responded saying we do not coordinate with other entities when

making content moderation decisions. and we independently evaluate content in line with a tweet rules, but the evidence seems to suggest the exact opposite. it's former legal affairs and policy chief am on the 1st to be fired by ellen mosque, met monthly with a da test. and not only her facebook created a special portal for the government to rapidly request that take down of content, including parody accounts and anti government pandemic policy stuff. but social media is just the tip of the iceberg. the da chesko is to totally control tag, joins to like wikipedia or microsoft. here is what is executive a former dia chair. so facial himself, text that the director of the department of homeland security in february, platforms have yet to get more comfortable with government. it's really to say how hesitant they remain. the calls were for an expensive role of the government's

agencies in shaping the information ecosystem. but how this information is defined by the government has never been clearly articulated. the inherently subjective nature of what constitutes disinformation provides a broad opening for d h. s. officials to make publicly motivated determinations about what constitutes dangerous speech. the d test justifies all that by saying that misinformation can push people to terrorists and but it seems they knew that what they were doing was bad because they hired 3rd party companies to do the research so that it didn't look like government propaganda. subcommittee members discuss designating a point of contact as a clearinghouse for trusted information x and mister hale suggested designating the ice x as a clearinghouse for information to avoid the appearance of government propaganda. but the government's role was hard to sweep on to the carpet as the f b,

i was deeply involved in the case as documents show miss dam low, the agent of the federal bureau of investigation known for crushing they hunter, by the laptop story briefed the dia, chess is cyber security and infrastructure security agency, on her vision of the ideal media miss demo was asked to provide her thoughts. she stated, we need immediate infrastructure that is held accountable. we need to early educate the populace, and that to day critical thinking seems to be a problem. currently, the department of homeland security was set up post 911 to counter foreign terror groups. and now it's fighting disinformation. is this america's new war on terror, or is it at terror on its own citizens freedoms guaranteed by the 1st amendment. ref, a national thickness through that. now with the you and climate conference g to start

this week in the egyptian city of shamal, shake some african countries are sounding the alarm over a lack of funding to tackle environmental challenges. the coastal nation of galvan sees a fluent western states have failed to deliver on their promises. over and over again, developed nations have committed and not delivered. they've committed to reduce emissions and they're not delivering sufficiently, they've committed to funding and that funding doesn't ever seem to materialize. we didn't create the problem. and so you would expect a more sincere engagement from developed nations, and you would expect them to respect their word and their engagements. meanwhile, the new british prime minister is apparently trying to save face as rich soon i could said to be reconsidering his previous decision on not attending the un conference in egypt. that's after he received significant backlash from the international community and his own conservative party. the u. k environment secretary house tried to dismiss the ridicule by saying it would be quote, just

a gathering not a formal summit, but egypt say that 90 heads of state have confirmed their attendance. well, investigative journalists, moody, ben would be by believes, there are forces that play who don't want to africa to be prosperous or substantially developed. it goes back when we saw gender that the corporate 19 pandemic. you know how the exit survey scenes. we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're jeannie issue, you know, i mean african countries as shutting to get things while the rest of the world refreshing the gym to reasons. i think this is an in balance when it comes to, to, to, to, to door, to the way i develop nations view and the develop mission. i think the way the waste is perceived as dina. somehow to keep books and developed, you know, because i think i developed africa, it's going to cause me to problems with the wrist. and the waste, or one that you ever get contributed to that belief meant to the quality of most of the powerful nation. that simple, everything we contributed to the economies of our countries like france, liquid,

you know, at the expense of our own african countries. so i think the waste would love to see erica and the developed a leg, china and russia. you mean am, if you look at that, that, that, that the growing presence of russia and china that are continent, it's one of brother would. it's one of help each other. art is one of funding projects that benefit up with body 0, letting to waste only fund projects that they're going to benefit from that can crunch in it. and then we're mich african leaders say, 19 year 99 year uses for them to own those resources. for example, former is really ambassador to the un dunney done in her slum the united nations order, demanding foreign inspectors be aligned to examine the countries nuclear facilities . are you in general? assembly committee recently overwhelmingly voted to pass that's resolution, including to compel israel to dispose of any atomic weapons that, ma'am, that's unfortunate because all those countries who voted on this resolution should ask themselves, what is the source of instability in the region?

is it israel or iran? what is the danger and the threat to the region? and i think that they all know that the threats coming from iran and not israel. the un resolution is aimed at preventing nuclear proliferation in the middle east. israel has never admitted to having nuclear weapons, but many experts and intelligence services considerate, unofficial nuclear power, with a capacity to produce such weapons. well, some israeli officials have openly spoken about recognizing their country as a nuclear states, but the nation's space agency, german isaac ben, israel, and said, such a move would make the country's military capabilities known to rival around which has also been accused of seeking to develop nuclear weapons, international criminal lawyer, christopher black states, israel has wanted to maintain an advantage as the only nuclear power, middle east. israel has nuclear weapons and is not condemn, but iran,

which does not have nuclear weapons, is sanctioned to condemn because they might develop a civilian nuclear program. north korea is sanctioned because it has nuclear weapons even know it is not a party to the non patient for non the nuclear nonproliferation treaty and says, all these injustices were epoxy rules and the american allies are allowed to get away with doing things, but nobody else is allowed to get away with it's just double standard and exceptionalism, as we've seen in every other instance in the west where america and its allies, israel, as in now in a position where it has nuclear weapons. and its entire strategy is to suppress anybody else from gaining nuclear weapons, reading nuclear potential as syria or iran. and remember, it's attack to your ran it attack syria and 27 to bomb it's nuclear facilities. it's assassinated iranian scientists, and many other people to try and prevent any,

any other middle eastern power becoming a nuclear power, as they are 29 states supports them. so the international community so called, which means really means united states and is western allies is not going to put in any pressure on israel to exceed or follow through on his resolution. ah, let's turn attention to cypher asia. finally, where pakistan has entered a 5th day of protests led by the former prime minister, m rum come, who is traveling to the capital islam about with a view to staging a political come back on a national level. local journalist sent us this report. oh, a week they went on with

amazon law, when enron khan calls for protesters to go to islamabad. they will all go because they believe their leader. that is why people trust him and have joined him. his last day, we have joined him because enron khan is standing for the truth and justice. we will follow his every step. we will go to islam about on foot. i will stand by him until i die class. i'm going to get him run con, resolve our problems. he has promised this. we are going to islamabad in our own vehicles. a video you said a, her name is lamar bob. you said your mom. if you get that was, if you need to have a good or bad, anything,

just coordinate a meeting is lamar and we are expecting his fall of optic ever done or not seats in a couple of weeks. yes, situation will be closely following here on our teeth. now. it's perhaps the most dangerous occupation on the planet right now. but as those doing a tell or documentary teen someone have submitted the mining don baskets going next year with our team. ah, ah, ah

ah . mm mm mm i to business with. mm hm. boss with you. i just need them both. good. i did. miss steward with key at the win washington's keep a bruce push to the dealer minded, completely cranes janessa loose. good. it was put in. it was full. go good of guys, just opponents in the whole claim because you need video

with watching you of the puts it for sure. lithium, the prevalence zavala, but yet with ah ah, on it's august 2022 for several months. the city's been on the intent showing from the ukrainian armed forces. ah, local hospitals resemble military and summaries. most are admitted with wounds caused by you. queen shells from various mines and shrapnel. a possible boy for you on our own way, which in digital with.
