ah, a parliament saturated with unconditional history towards russia. lease parliament with support. any measure that goes against most policies, even if it will not bring any benefit sponsors or police resolution, want to push us to war. there appear in parliament resolution to brand russia as a sponsor of terrorism isn't met with total approval on the lawmakers. i some members can done the move and a warning. our next story, how some disturbing and the do the had the united nation now says a video showing a russian capture the soldiers were reportedly executed, are highly to be authentic. as russia says, at least 11 p, o w,

were killed after they were detained. and are with the group stage at the paper, world cup and guitar, and full swing. we look at how the football tournament is mired in controversy with mosque out of the world. this is the weekly, on our international i. rachel blevins here with the top stories of this week and this our welcome to the program. we begin with the latest from russia, don escrow public where ukrainian shelling killed one civilian and wounded another on saturday according to local officials. let's take a look at the latest pictures from the scene. as you can see, this apartment building occupied by local residents has been severely damaged. local officials report that the ukrainian shelling of civilian areas and the don bath happens on a daily basis. meanwhile,

russia laid us missile attacks on target across ukraine have disrupted the flow of western weapons to the conflict zone. that's according to russia's defense ministry, which added that it strikes did not target ukrainian capital as claimed by key as we got a letter from the table as to the strike has disrupted the railway transfer of the ukrainian armed forces, their reserves, foreign weapons, military equipment, and ammunition to combat areas, i would like to stress the fact that not a single strike was carried out on targets inside key of all of the destruction inside the city declared by the regime is the result of falling ukrainian and foreign air defense. missiles fired from residential areas of the ukrainian capital . so lynch has been circulating on social media, showing missiles of bruce said to have been found at the scene in kiev, marked with the word lift, which appears to belong to an air defense system. similar to those washington sent

to ukraine 2 weeks ago. meanwhile, a number of western leaders were quick to condemn moscow for the strikes on ukraine, french president, emanuel micron branded the attacks, a war crime which can not go unpunished. an u. s. secretary of state antony blanket said, russia's aim was to keep ukrainians cold. and in the dark, however, rushes representative to the un slammed wood. he called the western double standards, saying he had this blockade of crimea, and the dog bass was ignored. this all. com says ukraine faced countrywide blackouts after a series of russian strikes targeted its energy facilities. the water supply in some areas was also cut off with ukraine's energy infrastructure severely damaged. after 2 months of attacks, loss gases, his goal is to weaken key abs operational capabilities as a response to the flow of western arm supplies into ukraine. meanwhile, people have taken to the streets in the port city of odessa this week, denouncing the power outages. there, at least one demonstrator was detained,

a ukraine security service. he was later filmed apologizing in a video posted by the regional administration. we should note as possible that the person may have been speaking under dress english. so we do to power outages. i took the initiative and called my neighbors to block roads to draw attention to the problem. said our apartment block by doing that. i violated public order for which i'm sorry, i also understand might wrong during may be used by russian propaganda to discredit all state for that. i'm also sincerely sorry. i also do understand that we can stand 235 or more days without electricity. those protecting us suffered more and we should be patient once again, please forgive me. the next time i'll behave more cautiously, i won't break the law and organize actions that was mistaken. although the merciless gate called on the un to adopt another anti russian resolution to quote,

condemn any form of energy, terror, european parliament, resolution branding, russia. a sponsor of terrorism was slammed by moscow who marked the body as a sponsor of idiots. his m some ne p. have also criticized the move with one member from france who told ard, see that he believes the resolution will only serve to escalate tensions. so can ipad actually succeed subnormal that the actions of the you lead to an escalation of the conflict? it, instead of contributing to the conclusion of the peace treaty, you're probably having voted this week for resolution, recognizing russia as a state sponsor of terrorism before the european parliament perceives exclusive leads on communicated tasks. angles, he says there is no concept of a state sponsor of terrorism on the european legal laser to my call. our parliament is saturated with unconditional hatred towards russia. these parliament will support any measure that goes against moscow's policy, say that even if it will not bring any benefits to e. u has exhausted all possible means at least warn of him. we are already of the

stage of preparing a 9th package of sanctions against russia, then one after 8 months of war and pussy. and some believe that it is necessary to insist that obese, shameful sanction being pose and moscow, which we did not want to apply to the taliban movement in afghanistan, nor to his lamb as groups in the sa, held up what is left for us after the exhaustion of all possible sanctions against moscow, as it leaves war, the sponsors of least resolution want to push us to war and to proceed. the resolution was passed with 500 out of 705 members voting in favor, 58 against and the rest abstaining. while the motion has no legal consequences for russia, the block has called for a new legislative framework to be developed in the e u. this differs from the u. s. list of state sponsors of terrorism, where countries phase economic consequences once was dead. we discussed the issue with human rights lawyer, daniel kalak, who says that resolutions like these are ironic as they are actually extremely

dangerous. 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 potent to offer condolences offer help on the war in terror and gave help in the war in terror, particularly an afghan stay where russia still had assets after the soviet presence there. and of course, 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 is help them at time. right. so that's the irony of these types of resolution . but they're dangerous resolutions because what it means is that it's going to cut russia off from the west on a, on a fairly permanent level. but on a long term basis,

and i just don't think that's good for anybody. the united nations now says the video showing the execution of captured russian soldiers are highly likely to be authentic. their organization has called for an independent investigation into the incident, and a warning you may find the following. images disturbing verse video is said to have been filmed by ukrainian troops showing captured russian soldiers who of apparently been told to lie on the ground. the 2nd video film from a drone appears to show the same group of soldiers in the same area now lifeless on the ground is the ledge. so the 2nd video shows the outcome of the incident or ration investigative committee says that at least 11 soldiers were executed. meanwhile, the incident has also coffee attention of the western mainstream media. the new york times said it has verified the authenticity of some of the footage and sharp contrast to its history of denying potential ukrainian war crimes. it looks like

most of them were shot in the head, the repose of blood that indicates that they were just left the dead. there appears to have been no effort to pick them up or help them. another shilling video appeared this week online, which was posted by ukrainian military officer to his twitter account. it shows a person, reportedly a russian prisoner of war bound and in the casket, allegedly said to be buried alive. again, a warning the following images are very disturbing. what do you mind? what was this mister pezora looking away for the former us marine bryan burlesque, spoke to archie earlier and get his thoughts on why your cranium soldiers would post such atrocities online. it's because of the impunity that ukrainian forces have enjoyed browse. not only the most recent part of the conflict,

the russian special military operation. but since 2014, we don't hear anything from the western media about ukraine shelling the don bus region for 8 years, or any of the atrocities that had taken place from 2014 onward. and they know that no matter what they do, they'll get away with it. i still don't think that will push the issue at all. you train is still lying about well, at least one missile falling impulsion, killing 2 polish civilians. they're lying, even when in their best interests they should be telling the truth and in an instant like this, they want to keep the barbarity going. and unfortunately, no one, no one except russia and its allies will hold them. molly's government has banned fringe funded and g o admitted deepening ro with paris transitional government has decided to been effective immediately. all activities carried out by

n g o's operating and molly with funding, material or technical support from france, including in the humanitarian field. the inter m e n said the move was in response to the halt of french aid to the african nation earlier french president emanuel micron ended his country's ears, long anti terrorist operation in this, the whole region. signing a lack of results. we spoke to a conflict resolution specialist who gave his take on the current tensions hulu. today, relations between the 2 countries are extremely tense, almost at the point of no return when there were such loud attacks in the media. the purpose of both the french and the molly and authorities, all the points that fall, mock ho and paris are gaining. they have nothing to do with it. and at the same time, these strained relations between bama cohen paris, make it clear to ask how much we should expect to return to normalization of cooperation, normalization of partnership between molly and france. and this can go on for

a long time. so it is obvious the bomber cohen paris to day or any contradictory dynamic in terms of mutual cooperation and partnership. as mentioned french attempts to ensure security in this a hell had not succeeded with a quarter of all terrorist attacks on the continental corps occurring in the region . that according to the african union center for the study on terrorism, it adds that close to 2000 people have been killed across this the hell in this year alone. we spoke to a security analyst earlier, who believes the french military presence has only further destabilize the region. a systems of africa is not alden because france is even there was, has corrected a war situation. and people are alleging that france is the one that, i mean i've had this and also helping logistically to that is to destroy and create

it disability. ition of this a hell in order to get do are sources of africa. so this issue will not even stop at molly. it's now also affecting fossil melbourne country and in the dead aah! the withdrawal of drew from molly, come into new york, even in india, we have organizational cb societies that's been, hasn't themself. who as you ted against the france prisons, because francis began is becoming more or less the ally of the evil forces in this a hell. i mean, less of you had his molly's neighboring country burkina. faso is also fighting a terrorist threat. and crowds have come to the country's capital to volunteer for its defense. the government there is seeking to recruit $50000.00 additional troops to fight against the ongoing g. hottest insurgency. thousands of people have been killed by extremist groups there over the past 7 years. the country's previous

president was overthrown by the military 2 months ago on allegations that he failed to deal with. the rising as wall must weighed 30000 troops, have already been recruited in the latest drive we heard from locals, who expressed their willingness to fight for their country no matter their age. no 1000 years and nobody took a square centimeter of our territory. i was 16 and i decided to join the army so long if one day my country is attacked, even if i am 80 years old. if i can raise my little finger than i will join your army. by volunteering, i'm bringing my stone to the construction of foreign nation. a nation under threat under terror is true that 40 percent of the 3rd tourism terrorist control would. i hope that with this recruitment together will be able to restore the whole national territory. it was, but i think that everyone is asked to contribute to the work. this is a national cause. we have to fight for that. it doesn't mean that every one will

carry a weapon, but what we can do to help we will do and the world caught for england. football fans had been banned from dressing up as medieval crusaders looking to attend matches and could tar reports say the move is in response to the historical context of wars between christians and muslims that could spark anger and the arab country. now this counts as debates continue regarding other bands during the championship, the german football teams protest against the ban on g. b. p. arm band has been met with criticism itself in some quarters. the captain of the belgian football team is among those unhappy with such a move, calling on the team to focus on football and not on politics. they would have done better not to do it and to when we are here to play football. i am not here to send a political message, people are better placed for that. we want to be focused on football. while in

this village, we can secretary police, not letting fans with a berber flag into the match, evidently mixing it up with l. g b t were dial yet causing outrage among moroccans. the burgers are indigenous african, the majority of whom live in morocco, as the world's biggest football event. and the controversies continue. here's our t equals, you don't know what's more. the fee for world cup has the reputation for bringing a sporting spectacle to the fans. every 4 years, the one that's kicked off in casa is no exception. on the contrary, this year's event has already become a source of drama, both on and off the pitch. on day 3, already saudi arabia's team sitting in the modest 51st place in the global rankings made headlines after beating the world's top 3 argentina. and the devastation of the messy devotees could only be matched by their rivals. triumph who seems we're

excited to remove every berry and every duel that could stand between the team and the trophy. oh, the me, i think the even the saudi king took notice of the show when declaring the next day a national holiday. the tournament also quickly took a political turn to even before the ball was kicked for the 1st time. in fact, in the run up cutter had repeatedly warned that the stands are no place for activism. mainly addressing the advocates for l g b t writes that alone caused a storm and the western media, while some european politicians profusely ignored the rules theme. germany covered

their mouth ahead of the match with japan in an act of protest as fever, bound captains from wearing l. g b t color down bounds. the stunt didn't do anything for them on the field though. as the game turns into a major upset for the european favorites and other clothing items that drove the spotlight away from sports was the scarf of the hungry and didn't see feel as noticed. it featured a map of so called greater hungry, which includes parts of modern ukraine and some other european countries safe to say those ations weren't exactly impressed by the land grab. the promotion of revisionist ideas in hungary does not contribute to the development of ukrainian hungarian relations and does not comply with the principles of european policy. a quick glance at historical maps in the viennese ministry of foreign affairs has confirmed and he shall suspicions, according to which tresley thanielle the kingdom of hungary ceased to exist around

100 years ago. a political stunt came from team iran to they refused to sing their national anthem before getting thrash 6 to buy england. but global quantum to well, we have to accept that the conditions in our country are not right. our people are not happy. we are here, but it does not mean that we should not be their voice or we must not respect their time. hurricanes, men did not evade controversy either. well, helen, anyone was we also could have asked just as english reporters did to cara's wire. the head coach of the country that killed innocent people in afghanistan and iraq regarding discontent towards the queen's funeral costs and winter expenses. yes, and in general, the atmosphere at the world cup has been rather uncomfortable. fans from israel, given an overwhelming public support for palestine and kata. hey, matt is right. this is michelle utley and unofficially, lately in oh, of his way. lisa,

this is luke bromley. hey paula. with everything from the 3 another motor soya simons, mom is being less than a week and already the tournament has yielded a very rich harvest of scandal. both sports and politics wise. all to show this year's cup is going to be the one to remember. one notable absence from the tournament is the russian national football team. however, despite being missing from the pitch, fans have still been showing their support. oh, that's a good. serbian football fans express their solidarity with russia chanting and displaying the russian and serbian flags together. and this wasn't the only voice of russia at this tournament. here,

you can see footage of the roadway in fans dancing and singing to russian patriotic songs here. as a reminder, russia was suspended from the knockout stage of the 2022 world cup qualifiers banning the country from the further participation in the championship. shortly after the start of the conflict in ukraine. the 2022 adam expo international for wrapped up this week, where representatives from 65 countries attended and came together to sign more than 50 agreements. the forum is one of the main events for the global nuclear industry representatives, discuss the current energy crisis, increasing international cooperation and new atomic projects across the globe. archie spoke to the hungarian foreign minister at the event about his country's continued cooperation with russia. this is a physical issue and it's obvious that nuclear is the cheapest,

the safest and more environmental you're generating energy than that. that's why it's is our national interest to continue the nuclear cooperation is russell and to make the to you reactor walks operational as a funny story. that was the reason how'd you, how'd you expect to deal with the potential backlash from the, from the e u and the u. s. we always fighting for the exemption of ford in nuclear when it comes to listen to regime so far we are successful. so i have a good hope that you'll be successful in the future just regard as well. maybe i'll never let you never let the nuclear to be essentially because it will go against our national interest. we also spoke to the chief editor of geo energetics and energy focus news outlet. he says that while europe is in an energy crisis, other countries are moving to find better solutions. because europe, which has forgotten how to build nuclear power plant, it can deal with its problems as much as it like. but all of the countries that are

thinking about the development of reliable, stable, low carbon energy. they are here representative some turkey. each bangladesh is back with whom russia hopes to sign a binding contract with the whole east of here. and it's great that egypt joined as well as they are the gateway to africa. and now at the site of the ceremony of signing here more and more new name of nuclear power is not only energy, but also an opportunity. tori's, nuclear medicine and many other sphere. egypt is one step closer to its 1st nuclear power plant. russian energy giant rossa tom is in charge of the project and the foundation for the 2nd power unit was late this week. the all data nuclear power plant is a joint russian, a gyptian project construction at the for reactor station began back in july. we had a chance to speak with the companies director general to learn more about the project, but it correctly so. so in the price i'll devise
