for this i was broadcast from moscow, of course, as archie international, a lot of big stories in your waste a program. so it's really great to have you with us. so blackouts are now ongoing all across ukraine. after series of blasts and major cities offer a series of missiles strikes, the water supply has also been caught in a number of places including the capital key, f or ukraine. electricity infrastructure has been severely damaged after 2 months. of targeting by russia. moscow says the goal of is miss allan drones stripes against infrastructure is to weaken key ebs war capability. let's get more details now and some of the final details to his are senior correspondent, marquez df. well, your grades, energy infrastructure appears to be crumbling, russian strikes and we have seen waves of them, of the past month or so have had a build up effect. the euclidean authorities services have been able to balance the
12:02 pm
energy infrastructure, power, generation and power distribution systems. despite repeated shrikes or b, it with a reduced capacity, but this has been trach. what has happened now is that the ukranian authorities are no longer able to keep the energy infrastructure together to, to, to keep it supply major cities, for example. so we've seen the day of blackouts region, my blackouts, and evolve in the west of ukraine right next to poland in the south. odessa, i key f, metro there, left without power. much of the city had been suffering blackouts for a number of weeks now. kind of also left out without power, several nuclear power stations and ukraine has been forced while at least one of them into emergency mode. they both be cut off from the energy. great. and that is because they were forced to shut down because the power they generate house knew
12:03 pm
where no, where to go with that be because of strikes against the power transformer stations will, will power lines high voltage power lines. the result has been that much of ukraine has been left without power. this is, or of course, despite the piece of messages, the preferred and western pressing in ukrainian press. pirating this opinion that busha has been running out of missiles. it doesn't appear to be the case, it is probable that brush and strikes against euclidean energy infrastructure will continue and the foreseeable future. and that will drastically complicate things for the credit will machine. now a big block house in ukraine neighboring moldova has also faced power cuts with kitchen are putting the blame on moscow siding strikes against key abs, energy infrastructure. i mean time, the russian investor has been summoned to mold over foreign ministry. as we
12:04 pm
understand, electricity supply is gradually being restored. the european parliament has passed a resolution to call russia a state sponsor of terrorism. of the 705 men was about 500 voted in favor, 58 against the motion, and the rest just abstain. now, a little background for you right now, the resolution does have no legal consequences for russia with a block has called for this kind of framework to be developed in the you. that's different to the us list of state sponsors of terrorism or countries. phase economic challenges once listed, it should be pointed out. also the russia is not on that list. the russian foreign ministry, though, had this reaction to the resolution. european parliament adopted to resolution recognizing russia as a sponsor of terrorism. i propose to recognize the european parliament as a sponsor of christianism among coal label russia and to support ukraine. the
12:05 pm
resolution went farther and evidently determined who is able to report the truth on the conflict in ukraine. have a look. the eel parliament appeals to all russian people, not only to refuse to be direct into this war, but also to protest against the atrocious war crimes against the people of ukraine commenced. the war of ukrainian and the international journalists hotel, the world, the truth about the war and ukraine often risk in their own lives to do so. now this comes even on the ukrainian side of the front line. locals have admitted strong support for russia. western media outlets wire normally show it a recent article in the washington post didn't hire that real story. is our correspondent robin culture with ukraine, united's or ukraine had divided, who is considered the liberator, and who is an occupier. now, these are the sort of questions. now been raised by international pundits and observers. western media, endlessly covered, ukrainian forces, move it into the now russian here san showing the jubilant crowds,
12:06 pm
waving national flags and welcoming caves, forces to someone not familiar with the real situation on the ground. the image is presented could easily sway the opinion of the city was in fire and a pro ukrainian. now though this black and white picture is being questioned, fake, a recent washington post article where the author admits that there were, in fact many pro russian citizens and her son. the story dilutes the narrative of russia as the unwelcome aggressor. how to rebuild without the thousands of russia sympathizers who fled and even more vexing. what to do with those who remain thousands in the city held an ambivalence towards the russians or even an affinity that piles of documents catalogues his own residents applying for aide pensions, passports, and employment. one listed children sent to a summer camp in crimea. applications to volunteer at the 8 sent at filled binder after binder prior to moscow's repositioning off its forces to the opposite bank of
12:07 pm
the river. neighbouring here san the local administration evacuated thousands of local residents to crimea and other regions in russia. the washington post article talks about the fears of those who welcomed the russians, but for some reason decided not to evacuate. as soon as the russians fled, however, the roubles were nearly worthless and he was left with little. but the shame of having taken the payments and the passport, i don't know what will happen, he said, as his wife squirmed uncomfortably and a neighbor eavesdropped. the craniums might shoot me to morrow. the fears expressed by this man, not unfounded, don't take our word for it and take another look at the western media as reporting such words as russian collaborator and punishment is inevitable, is what unites these articles. as they outline they are rounding up off russian sympathizers with their hands bound and tight to lampposts and other popular word
12:08 pm
and ukraine today is filtration. this and humane process is depicted in videos like this one. i knew the who. yeah. this is hello to look mitchell from community listening to her that with a florida. the only other numbers with you. so when it comes to here song, it becomes increasingly clear that far from all of the locals. so russia as an occupying force, similar feelings and emotions, are often expressed in ukraine as well. and that might lead to an assumption that so we are looking at it site over civil war. we've seen videos reportedly showing
12:09 pm
people in key of who expressed support for russia being beaten up and threatened. this man slammed an elderly woman's head against a window of a train after she said that russians are defenders. we've also heard directly from ukrainians, including a militant from the nationalist asoft regiment, admitting that in fact, in many towns, the majority are waiting for russian troops. for this up assemble for the 60 percent of people were pro russian invariable. they really wanted to join russia, missouri, and i said over 63 percent of local population here. my dear support. russia is not the 1st time the washington polls showed this so complex aspects of the conflict. another article detailed how many ukrainians wanted to return to areas under russian control, but were actually blocked by key of authorities. it seems that sir,
12:10 pm
what was previously deemed as a russian propaganda talking point is no longer of that. and it took nearly 9 years. but it seems that it's impossible to ignore any more while i talking about the i e. e e resolution, again, are calling russia or a state sponsor of terrorism will. earlier i was joining the studio by human and labor rights lawyer, danco valley and international lawyer are no delay to discuss the potential consequences of the measure. well, i think it just adds fuel to the fire, certainly. but i just want to say that how ridiculous that is, you know, people need to be reminded that the 1st world leader to call george w bush, after 911, was putin to offer condolences to offer help on the war and terror and gave help in the war and terror, particularly an afghan, a stay where russia still had assets after the soviet presence there. and of course,
12:11 pm
well, and i've been to syria twice. i was last year. and there you see that the russians have help fight ice is there while it's the u. s in the west, which has helped them at time. right. so that's the irony of these types of resolutions, but they're dangerous resolutions because what it means is that it's going to cut russia off from the west ana, on a fairly permanent level. but on a long term basis, and i just don't think that's good for anybody you have just returned from don bass . if you would give us a, a sense of your experience that what's, what's happening on the ground there right now? well, we spent most of the time internet city and what i was impressed with, i mean, honestly is the normal see in the city, you know, traffic people going to work, people going to restaurants, people going shopping. and i was told that actually that type of vibrancy really started happening after the referendum in september that people feel
12:12 pm
a little safer and better. now with that said, there were some shelling while with we were they are a school was hit, a place where people go to get water because the water treatment facility had been damaged quite a while ago by shelling from the key of government and the stadium was shelled so there's regular shelling. but with in that context there is a feeling of normalcy in that that that's what i was impressed by actually willingness could. there's this sense of normalcy. but it's kind of a of something that induces you into thinking it's normal. it's a defense mechanism, people need to carry on with our lives. at the same time, mom, we really understood that at any moment you could be targeted. whether you are a school, you know, attending student whether you're going to a hospital, whether you attending the markets. so people have been integrated, you know, some kind of a defense mechanism bearing on trying to reduce the risk. but the risk is always
12:13 pm
there and this can strike all the time that well, i mean, time i, 35 russian prisoners of war have been released off the negotiations with key f. that's according to the russian defense ministry. the ministry claim the troops were endanger, wellbeing, help him captivity the fight as an owl receiving medical and psychological help bill as soon be and it hit him moscow for rehabilitation. so one person has been killed at least 18 others wounded. it's a case of 2 explosions. at bus stops in jerusalem, teenage boy who studied it of nearby jewish school has been identified as the fatality and what is already asked, which was calling a coordinated terror attack. the blast occurred during the morning rush hour. police say both bombs were and bags were planted in bushes of 2 city bus stations. the explosives, which were packed with nails, but blown up remotely. but there was an active search for suspects, and the local tara threat has been lifted to maximum. although no one has as of yet
12:14 pm
claim direct responsibility. some media reports on statements coming in from several armed palestinian groups including the militant wing of hamas, which allegedly praised the explosions. we have this report from the city a bit earlier with our correspondent maria financial and i am now in easton, jerusalem. they are known as shaves. police headquarters are behind me. and the latest that we hear from these rally police is that they suspect both explosions that happened here earlier on wednesday morning, were caused by near identical remotely detonated explosive devices left in a bag. and we hear from the police folks person, but the legal authorities right now are considering what happened, a combined pair attack. no one so far took responsibility for the explosions. and we hear from the car denita of government activities in the territory. this is a special body within these rally defense ministry,
12:15 pm
responsible for palestinian affairs said the tech point that are predominantly used daily by arab israeli is to go to work or to see their families are now closed until further notice for security reasons. we have been at the scene and we have been able to speak to your police folks person. let's take a listen right now what he's saying about what happened and what the police is right now doing association if you will. this is a grave incident. as far as we know, there were 2 attacks and there's a high possibility of a connection between them. i hope we will find the terrorists and the organizations, if there's a connection between the incidents and it's something bigger than somebody just decided to commit an attack this morning. the 1st explosion happened at a bus stop not far from jerusalem central bus station at the rush hour. and there was so many people there at that time trying to use buses and trains to go to
12:16 pm
a work around 7 a. m a local time and just minutes later there was another explosion happened in northern, a derosa at the intersection of remote neighbourhood. and we were at the scene of the 1st explosion like an hour after it happened. and we were trying to do our live when a person shouting something very aggressively in hebrew, jumped into like our camera, and he was filming me and shouting. something that i later realized was the month to call what happened a terror attack. but he was asking that before, actually the police confirmed that and determined what happened as there were a tag. so i tried to explain to him that i cannot do that until a legal authorities do that. but he was actually not ready to listen. he was shouting and then at group a big group of students from religious schools,
12:17 pm
join him and they started following ours and filming, and saying that we have to say this is terror attack because of the explosion. classes were cancelled in the religious schools around the areas of the explosion. so the students out were outside and this is what they decided to do. they were following us and pushing and actually they were some aggressive like shouts over there that i would not like to repeat here. but we can say that tensions a very high here the region has been experiencing and facing extremely violent time recently. but predominantly in the west bank and for the 1st time in some time the attack happened here in jerusalem. and of course there is a. * lot of fear, a lot of frustration and anger with everybody blaming everybody. but we have
12:18 pm
to be careful with what we are saying, and we have to wait for the confirmation about everything from legal authority. so i'll keep you updated on how it goes here on the ground. russian security services have prevented an act of sabotage on military and energy facilities near the russian city of r o s. as a f s b security officer attempting to detain, the suspects they were fired upon and in the ensuing gun fight, killed the ring. later and 2 of his partners, the trio had been caught retreating weapons at a height out on the outskirts all over on is a to ready to use improvised explosive devices, alms ammunition, communications devices is what the host of other paraphernalia was discovered at the scene. and seized for there were no casualties among law enforcement. personnel involved in the raid ah, bulgaria says it'll allow an oil refinery owned by russia's 2nd largest energy
12:19 pm
company lu, coil to export crude products to europe, partially bypassing anti russian sanctions. the deal is set to generate some 350000000 euros for sophia. and since lou coil will transfer all production revenue to bulgaria, not to the netherlands or switzerland as it had before, the agreement also paved the way for russian crude products to be delivered. wire, straight back to the e. u. well, let's look at how this deal or avoid the bad on russian energy exports to the european block. the e u has put an embargo on russian oil exports, but since the crude will be refined on bulgarian territory, it will be considered as the country's own product. hence becoming eligible for europe. energy journalists arena slot believes that you shouldn't be solely motivated by ideology. when it comes to banning russian energy, this is good news, and next to him we got the reply and it has been the property of russia for years.
12:20 pm
i think the european union must find the way between ideology politics and your politics. pragmatism big is the true faith that they particularly ensure supplies globally. europe is where the influx mall stuff ring on its own citizen in order to continue this book that you're signaling for. who knows how long it's ironic really, and it's a bit ridiculous that europe is stalking up on fuels on oil, on cold coming from russia. the new release for the video game column duty has attracted 25000000 players. and while the hugely popular 1st person shooter game of trucks record numbers according to a recent investigation, it may be used as
12:21 pm
a recruitment tool by the us department of defense. for certain demographics of gamers, it's a recruitment portal. some 1st person shooters have embedded adverts within the games themselves, even without the sort of explicit recruitment effort. games, like call of duty make warfare seem fun, exciting an escape from the drudgery of the normal lives. la game designers and engineers are expected pedigrees. one might see, and a game development team but call of duty employs the likes of well, right, that francis towns and the atlantic council think time can the infamous us war on terror campaign to more with very similar backgrounds, dave, anthony, and chance, glasgow also on the development team, now, the game itself closely parallel is current events and political trends. an early release of call of duty featured a fictitious iranian general who supported terrorists. the officer though he was bearing a remarkable resemblance to the late iranian general. so like money who was assassinated
12:22 pm
by a u. s. drone in 2020. well, we discussed it with radio host and political commentator, steve gill. he told us these types of video games seek to normalize the images of war with the younger generations. it's the same thing that we see in movies they. they want to make sure that it looks real and it looks good so that they can help in their recruiting efforts of anybody that might want to join the military. seeing that it looks pretty fun on call of duty. of course you can always hit the reset button and you never die. i think the other interesting thing is that there's really a limited number of enemies that you can have in the world today. there are restrictions, you can't really portray muslims as terrorist. the russians are the enemy of choice today. so in the new campaign of call of duty, you have some russian mob stores, you know, combined with some bad mexican cartel folks. and then you've got good mexican, the special forces that are combined to help fight these, these evil enemies. so they've got to find enemies that they can portray. these
12:23 pm
games have made kids that have never actually picked up. a real fire are much easier to train, much easier to learn to shoot accuracy because they've been playing these video games and a lot of what they're using in their training now is very similar to the video game . so i think it is not only is a good recruiting tool which is again why they make it interesting and engaging. and at the same time, you're also seeing training in these kids coming out of high school. they're never actually fired a weapon being very proficient with weapons, you know, right off the bat when they get into the military. so good to have you with us that people have taken to the streets of the armenian capital in protest to the countries membership of the russian lead, collective security and treaty organization. the demonstration comes ahead of a visit by vladimir putin for a of the alliance. the protest demanding the country quick. the russian lead block accusing it of not coming to armenia as
12:24 pm
a during the board of classes with as out of by john earlier in september of the slogans and post is also demanded an end to the war. a new crane, well, a counter pro russian rally was held a short time later. the protesters holding russian flags and banners they were calling to save the roof. so armenian brotherhood as a counter balance. the activity of pro western forces and organizations in armenia . some banners also demanded vladimir putin to take action on returning armenian prisoners of war from as by john. so it's in so taking over the range of twitter, ilan musk has been teen to brag that the platform is open for expressing any and all opinions. as is obvious to all but the media, there is not one permanent ban on even the most far left to count spouting, utter lies to his actual policies. those seem to prove the opposite. take, for example, the account of geopolitical analysts,
12:25 pm
garland nixon. it was suspended for, quote, hateful conduct. came off the garland suggested in a tweet, the us secretary of state was involved in the north stream pipeline explosion and supported the neo nazi as of battalion. but the suspension though, so others on the platform raising questions, things i don't seen this tweet that allegedly violated twitter rules, promotion of violence, hate speech threat. so we'll harassment based on race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, etc. i do see an over top satirical critique of a top us official, is that a legal now left when onto work town. gallon nixon was banned today for using the human to tell the truth about us foreign policy. and it's disabled that when i spoke with god, nixon himself, he insists his tweet was clearly satire and the decision to suspend his account may have been politically linked. when i look at the comment that i made, clearly it was satire. and there's an article i'm looking at right now and i will
12:26 pm
read, i will read the title of this article. now i made a joke, but this is the title of an article. why twitter won't remove lindsey graham's tweet about assassinating pollutant. so lindsey graham can say, assassinate the leader of a country that's not threatening, we can go want to adam kendra's girl threatened to beat a guy up on twitter, done. these weren't jokes. so you can threaten death upon the leader of a country, no problem or twitter. but if you make a joke about anthony blinking, that pushes back against imperialism. you're likely to be tossed off the platform. satire and parody are protected under the 1st amendment. jokes and comedy are protected. in fact, even speech that is incorrect, you are protected under the 1st amendment. you can be wrong. but in particular parity satire, which is all that i did. leland moscow said he's going to make changes, but if you look at his history, here's a guy who basically owes his fortune to the u. s. government, or they don't have to tell him what to do. he knows the rules and he can pretend to
12:27 pm
be pushing back against the rules, but he can't really do it. that's it for now, here on our international from moscow, thank you so much for sharing a time with us here on the russian capital. your news returns a top with ah oh, when i want shown the wrong one,
12:28 pm
i'll just don't move any new world yet to save out. disdain becomes the attitude and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground with its infrastructure being degraded in the weather. turning into winter ukraine faces the stark prospect of becoming a failed state. no amount of western arms can change that harsh reality. why should it in care of have demonstrated they have no real interest in negotiations? ukraine's fate has been sealed. a reason is meaningless cards and that if you speak russian,
12:29 pm
keep your voice down while out and about a couple of don't put your human symbols on display a little space each night. all right, so you guys don't talk to strangers. i. 7 avoid noisy gatherings and rallies with russia. eaten your colleagues and perhaps also your friends. since you're guilty because you'll russian. much not a detail. glad to wait a minute for a specific struggle. with

in the summer of 2022. italy, along with all other nato member states to think of li, sided with ukraine in the conflict with russia. roman coordination with the u. s. approved military assistance package for keith. to help you crated defend themselves and fight back a father. leanne will spend a new job site on the same nato and the u. f with the ones that people will die just for make money. there are those who oppose that decision at various levels of government. i was one of the members of the parliament that showed them yes, italians also protested in the streets but across the ocean in the.
