a with ah, you need new moscow was working on mechanisms to ban the use of the price cap for russian oil brush will supply oil and petroleum products only on market terms. moscow reiterates that it rejects a western price tap on its oil trade with 3rd countries as an e. u band on seaborne, russian oil imports comes into force today alongside the latest restricted and moscow accuses kiev of persecuting the orthodox christian community. as ukraine cracked down on the russian orthodox church rating its most sacred monastery in the

country. in the d. r. c 1000. walk to the streets and protests of the killing of over $100.00 civilians. by m 23 rebels as well as the west. the parents hypocrisy towards rewan does a legit involvement with the congolese. people are angry to see their brothers and sisters suffer from war in the east. and we say no to the sponsors with hello and good morning from our to international studios in moscow, and from wherever you may be catching the program. welcome to the hours most, pressing you stories from around the globe. i'm here all is about the price cap on russian oil agreed by the e. u. g 7 states and australia comes into force today alongside a total ban on russian seaborne. oil exports to the u. rushes deputy prime minister, alexander novak who overseas the countries energy sector has reiterated moscow's

refusal to supply oil to countries that comply with the cap. and i suppose you'd soon use me in our position on the oil price cap remains unchanged. it is a crude tool. moscow was working on mechanisms to banned the use of the price cap for russian oil, regardless of the established level. russia will supply oil and petroleum products only on market terms. even if we have to cut production. opec plus stretched its readiness to get together at any moment and make a decision to correct the situation on the market. but now this isn't necessary. the statement comes after a meeting of opec plus states during which the oil producers agreed to keep their current oil production levels in place. that's the spite speculation. the russian oil price cap would trigger a further production cut. so how exactly will the price ceiling work? the g $7.00 in the u states plus australia have agreed to limit the price of russian crude oil to $60.00 per barrel. 5 percent below market price. the

restrictions will apply to seaborne imports of russian oil to 3rd countries, meaning european transport. an insurance providers won't provide their services to countries that don't comply. europe claims the move will help stop moscow's actions in ukraine by hitting the russian budget. but kiev has criticize the move, demanding. the price can be further lowered by half. a revision of the price cap is planned for mid january, although any changes we need a unanimous decision by all you members. the block states say they believe the measure will help them inflation and stabilize global oil prices. the restriction comes along with an e u. embargo on the russian import oil to the e. u by sea and as experts say, the worst could still be to come. some european states are already struggling with the effects of an energy crisis, aggravated by anti and russian sanctions. art contributor rachel mars then reports

on the consequences of the latest energy policies in europe. here in france, energy executives have been talking about power cuts as early as january as a result of the energy crisis and what that might look like. so schools would have to close trains probably wouldn't run, an emergency call, systems wouldn't work if the blackouts lasted longer than 2 hours now into this downward circling of the drain in french society comes the e. you, with even more meddling for every one. great. just what europeans needed, shirley, whatever they suggest this time will totally, absolutely work and will completely bankrupt. russian president vladimir boot just as long as europeans, except to put in a bit more personal sacrifice for ukraine. right. so what's the big plan this time? queen ursula brussels, the g 7, an o e u. member states have taken a decision that will hit russia's revenues even harder and reduce its ability to

wage war in ukraine. it will also help us to stabilize global energy prices, benefits in countries across the world who are currently confronted with high oil prices. um, are you sure that's how it's really gonna work that it's gonna play out exactly the way you think it is. her majesty that europeans and the whole world are going to get relief with this new idea which actual economic expert, former us treasury secretary, steve newton called ridiculous kind of like the promises you made to european households earlier this year to help them with skyrocketing energy costs as a result of previous anti russian, you sanctions concocted by brussels bureaucrats. so how are those promises of help from the you working out for europeans? now, in previous days, the government has once again located money for the war and ukraine. instead of putting money into social spending, health, education,

and pensions. it is necessary to still finance ukraine and the sanctions against russia. the ghost living has become unbearable for many people who say they don't want to pay for these crises. it is not their fault that the war broke out, and it is not their fault that energy companies are profiting so much from energy bills over your younger, peachy, energy costs make up the majority of our bud phone. so we must make ends meet as soon as possible, the williams indiana to this moment. we are being dramatically influenced by the surgeon prices to hospital sigh and die. economic situation which are well, muscles is tinkering around like a plumber keeps trying different tools to stop rising waste water from destroying the whole house. european citizens don't have the luxury of falling back on the kind of big salaries that their leaders enjoy. germans, for example, are increasingly turning to charity to make ends meet for even the most basic items like clothing zalman, our store has been open for 4 years. you can meet

a variety of people here from students to ordinary workers, pensioners and refugees. and there are more and more visitors, they simply cannot afford the same life. they had lived a couple of months ago. food prices have gone up, plus electricity and everything else. so people are grateful that they can spend less on food and not tighten their belts to hard. kids. here in france are getting reports that school kids are faced with classrooms as cool as 10 or 12 degrees celsius. as a result of communes needing to reduce their energy bills, which is exactly what the french government has mandated of them swimming pools here are closing for up to a month in some cases for exactly the same reason. meanwhile, 63 percent of french parents are worried about being able to pay for christmas gifts. 44 percent of them fear that they could fall into poverty. and a quarter of them admit that they may need to turn to charity for food that's according to a recent i. fox survey, meanwhile, french president emanuel my call is in washington this week with joe biden. he was dining on butter. poach main lobster,

served with american of cetera. caviar delicate dough squash, and i've yellow and aragon salad a beef with charlotte, marmalade, triple cook butter, potatoes, son, chokes, cream, watercress, and wine reduction. a red one reduction. oh, and asking by me not to please sell europe gas it 4 times u. s. market price any more, maybe, you know, even though the u. s. has europe over a barrel without the diversification, that cheap russian energy provided. but, you know, he's over there asking anyway, it's worth a shot, right? pulling in the baltics without even knowing whether or how these new russian oil sanctions might actually harm europe and, or people were already calling for an even lower ceiling just to stick it to putin . without even knowing if sticking it to putin would actually work either above the only thing that's actually working for sure. right now in the you is it's virtue

signaling machine and that thing never seems to take a day off. we discussed the issue with ralph ne meyer, chairman of the german council for constitution and sovereignty, who believes the growing energy crisis is killing european industries. it is a nother steps to was raising prices for european and german consumers. because what we will see tomorrow on the 1st of december is did factor shut down of the dervish pipeline. that ends in burke in germany. and it is a defacto telling us that we will have no, petro, no gas, and no and products from tomorrow on. this is killing our industries. and we can't go on for long after tomorrow. after monday. the 5th of december 2022. this is what i say is rather like the 9th of november

989 when the billing was that moment of truth. so now we have to see what we make from that because it is clear that drummond industries as well as french swiss or trend and others, they cannot buy energy at such a high price. and so why? so we want to have a good negotiation between russia, germany, france, and the united states of america. now, to the latest from don, yes, we're the ukraine army has once again shall the city center according to reports on the grounds. in the latest pictures, a large fire is visible, reportedly rubbing into buildings after the shelling. several shells also landed on the city streets. no information on any casualties is currently available. will

bring you all the updates as soon as they come in. this comes after local officials and don. yes, they ukrainian shelling level including a child wounded on sunday. you people were caught off guard and shops on the streets and in their home. danielle authorities say artillery supplied by nato was used in the attacks. several residential buildings in this city center were heavily damaged. and as you can see, the footage, the local kindergarten also came under fire. luckily no children were injured. we spoke to the locals who were caught in the fire, who said there were no military targets nearby. when the attack took place. i looked, you know, you know, they are targeting us and for what, in whose name we have been living in this horror, all these years since 2014 after the qu, in ukraine. this is how we live in some kind of expectation that all this is about to end. your normal issue crystal is use of them. i thought the house had

completely collapsed with and then i ran out. i saw all the windows were broken. this house took heavy damage and now we are afraid of every russell. how can they do this? there are people here. 2 children live on the 3rd floor. it's unbelievable what's happening. everything is covered in shrapnel here. it's fortunate. there was no one in this room. although the walls are in shrapnel if someone was here, they would be killed immediately. meanwhile, the don bass frontline is seeing the heaviest fighting of vol, particularly near the city of our deal. most the russian defense ministry says russian armed forces have ramped up there offensive, capturing a major foothold in the area. the ukrainian military is suffering heavy casualties in the battle. a story also covered by mainstream media outlets with western reporters saying hundreds of ukrainian wounded soldiers are admitted daily to local

hospitals. this comes after a commission. chief ursula funder lay and said last week that ukraine has already lost 100000 officers. however, her statement was soon deleted from social media and from the commission website as it was to be an accurate. nevertheless, this claim caused a massive backlash from him. as the conflict rages on in the battlefield, there's a battle in the spiritual dimension as well. moscow has accused kids of dividing and persecuting the orthodox christian community and ukraine. this comes a middle crackdown on a russian link church in care of by the countries authorities. here's how moscow's foreign ministry describe the move. preparations are underway for the capture of the key of petro clara, which was initiated on friday, by those in charge. the kiev regime, led by the lensky who does not wear across, is leading the split of the orthodoxy in ukraine. moscow's reaction followed an

investigation announced by ukraine into a legend. russian influence that the key for church love in ancient monastery with historic links to the central orthodox church and moscow. the site is one of the most important religious shrines in kiev, and a symbol of orthodox christian unity. the monastery was rated by ukraine security services last week after reports of pro russian activity, their 850 people are now being investigated by kid. and here's how president lensky has explained. the crackdown when or is liana, went to sleep, you fucked, is we considered numerous facts of connections of certain religious circles in ukraine with the aggressive state. we have to create conditions where no actors depend on the aggressive state will have an opportunity to manipulate ukrainians. and we can ukraine from, within almost in the ukrainian parliament has drafted a law that will ban religious organizations from having links to russia. the clergy

and parishioners of suspected churches will be investigated for any connections to the moscow. patriarchal and sanctions will be applied to any found to have such lengths property rights for the most sacred monastery and ukraine could also be reassessed. while the move as drawn sharp condemnation from russia, some us politicians have also weighed in zelinski is banning the ukrainian orthodox church. his government is also been writing ukrainian orthodox churches and arresting priests. probably why he's a demo super stop. he's all about freedom guys that send him another 100000000000 with no accountability. well, i meant president zalinski. when i was vice president, i must tell you. i was impressed with him from the very beginning i since a deep conviction in him understanding of his people. but like the rest of the world,

i marvelled at his courage and the courage of freedom fighters in ukraine. father, darker wrist of joe, also a professor at the university of eastern star, a gable told a zalinski government is trying to disconnect ukrainians from their common historic roots with russia by persecuting russian orthodoxy in the country. ukrainian states was modeled according to the anti russian also they retain a care anti moskowitz sentiment, so i'm not surprised project off ukrainian identity us being modeled on on time or anti russian sentimental russia for us to phobia. and he's trying to make this polish is kind of the atmosphere in which market ukraine is going to be modeled in any presence of any remains. so fraction of spirituality, russian fiercely rational language, actually everything,

even remotely linked and connected to russia, needs to be expelled from today's ukraine. so you can finally be totally disconnected from it's history, from its roots, which are common to withdraw. and when, once, when you disconnect one population and why i'd entity out of it's historical roots, then you can make pretty much any think you want to from this population, from this identity. so that, that, that, that house, that are his goals and death are the goals of those progress which stand by you science can, which actually try to is from analyze content for ukraine against tens of thousands of catholics have taken to the streets in protest of the recent massacre of civilians by m. 23 rebels in the democratic republic of congo. as church leaders acute the international community

of hypocrisy over wanders, a legit rule in the conflict. marches organized by the catholic church took place across the d. r. c. after and a legit massacre of over $100.00 civilian protest, her slam the international communities have hockey and the a legit organization of the entry. this comes as kinshasa accuses neighboring rwanda of sponsoring the rebels. something un in u. s. officials have also insinuated for years many in congo have accused the west of failing to hold the dollar to account for his electric role in stoking and security in the d. r. c. the sacrifice made by our courageous soldiers on the front line pushes us to encourage them via this march. because territorial integrity and national sovereignty are not negotiable. we the faithful of the archdiocese of kinshasa support. this typically born is also the congolese

people are angry to see their brothers and sisters suffer from war in the east and we say no to the sponsors. oh boy, my uncle got me reject all who take up arms and fight in our country just to gain power, those types of wars. and now we refuse the raising and mixing of army. we want to live in kills in order to build our country. look at the m $23.00 group released a statement denying the accusations. the movement is mainly composed of ethnic tutsis in 2012. the group briefly captured the city of goma. but following peace talks, many m. 23 fighters were integrated into the country's military. the group resume fighting late last year, stating the d. r. c. had failed to honor its pledges to admit its fighters into the army that the r c has also accused neighboring rwanda of supporting the rebels and accusation. the country denies a political science professor bonnie fossa, delani points out that the u. n. lead international community is known to the

atrocities happening in the d r c, and is calling for more coverage of what he does a well hidden war. this perfect in the delta c has been going more new for too long, and they are so many lives that are big. well, i do you think it hasn't been as much of interest that we also trust the dates that are being paid by both sides. dad, i see because actually that the law allowed all of these group see to continue with the very minimal i believe the international community doesn't to see much interest in me getting involved. busy any preventive and stopping conflicts that i give these the, in the, you know, in the data, the id few other countries the day and the electric light because they don't the immediate interest you enemy said he is failing because that's one of the primary

functions that they should have that he the citizens apo tech said i think he did such a big hopefully i didn't he didn't now maybe one of the ways he did was that's been going on for too long. israeli fighter just struck the southern part of the palestinian gaza. and retaliation for a missile, allegedly launch from the strip the previous night. israel claimed its jets, targeted a weapons production facility and a tunnel belonging to hamas. local sources say palestinian forces responded with anti aircraft missiles on saturday. a rocket was fired from the strip into southern israel, landing in an open area near the israel fence. no casualties were reported. the israeli army has also demolished palestinian civilian infrastructure in the west

bank, including houses and schools. r t 's. maria fin ocean has more on the storage. we will stay the banners same, and the people here repeat from the stage and from the crowd. these are palestinians from all over the west bank come in here to send a message that can not be misinterpreted. you know what, as that i of the army do in this area. they want to take off the beeble from his own land, and they go to make a settlement, he added, we will fight by a international law plain this if you bishop, by outwardly de map not today or tomorrow or after to morrow. but palestine will get its independence because palestine is the hot, shall the middle east and the air of worlds when he to fight. and 1st of all, we need to stay on our land and show that we are here. the will of the people will when they gathered in the west bank area known as must suffer, yet turn into sudden hebron heels to support locals who disagree with an israeli

high court decision to clear this fast area of around 3000 hectares for the need of the country's army thus be many of wholesome, the past by those ladies will displace for the financial many court orders. the presence of the palestinian people here is little mental. our presence to day is another precision of the will of liberal authority burn under the termination percentage was i'm a big ruthless. i love big north occupation. untrue the exemption of every palestinian provide to the last minute to the law. so therefore, to show that the listener people are, you prefer, he told, started back in the 1980s when israel claimed its army needed this area as a military training ground, with no people or buildings on it. palestinians protested repeatedly, arguing they had lived in this in hospitable, mountainous region before this state of israel appeared and ended up appealing to these rarely, supreme court. 20 years later,

hearings took another 2 decades according to the decision. very, very, an. 6 little decision by their supreme court date give the philistine every chance, every chance to get the evidence to show their rights. this is why the future took 20 years. ok. 20 years of taxes. of money that public debate thornton court or day indicted. the procedure to the government for what? in may, earlier this year the cult rolled to clear the area. no people, no construction. local say the buildings were being destroyed even before they made decision. those buildings are illegal. israel claims in response. i think it was a mistake, there was no need for a compromise, but the army, nevertheless,

on for many, many compromises. and every time that hosting and broke, the pro compromises built in the area where a few buildings without any legal permits, without any legal claim to the land. and it was all rejected. and the data shows that there are so much more illegal buildings by palestinians that are built do in order to create the cost in state and to change the status quo on the ground and saddling the israel. yes. or if you do not demolish, i think we should demolish much more. more than 40 years did not bring a solution that would satisfy both sides. and it now seems the future is determined, the army and the bully is going to pick them out. the building will be destroyed. that's it. okay. and the buildings and everything. but the palestinians are not ready to give up

a would be the high hopes a will even the night now, but there will be a dollar for palestine representatives from 20 little society organizations from all over the world bank, including defense tend to popular resistance to me to give it here in today to get to with families isn't a clear message to the rally government that the legal battle might be over, but they are not ready to place the case. a team from the way the israeli army has also been training at sites be on its border, simulating strikes on it on in joint drills with the u. s. last week. israel views

to iran as a threat to its national security and has rehearsed strikes on the grania nuclear facilities. sharon has long maintained that it's atomic program is peaceful and has rejected claims that it's seeking to build a nuclear bomb. we discussed both the drills and more with professor of political communication at the university of toronto. for odd is adi though you always have to be careful with israelis because throughout their history they have been attacking palestinian civilians and in affecting other neighbors for many decades. so you always have to take this type of threats that seriously. the good news is that they have been threatening to attack it on for many, many years. and the reason they haven't done it is because the cost is so high, iran is capable of defending itself. and what they are doing is against international law article to section 4 of the un charter. it talks about the use of

force, the fact that the use of force should not be exercised. the unless you have a un security council resolution, but it says threat or use of force. so threatening other countries is also an eagle and the view and charleston at, but i don't think anybody in there on would lose asleep because they're used to this type of threats without the american support. the israelis may have the 1st so i can me a start, a war against the run, but finishing a war against it on that would not be under timetable. it would be a decision by iran i think the americans realized the cost of attacking us and americans on $1.00 over to you and response. so if it is decide to attack, i think americans not officially engage in this type of behaviors that have been

trying to change the government on since $979.00 since the for less and shaw was deposed by the people of iraq. so this idea is often that new people are used to it . you know, the united states government is a government in decline. the u. s. power is declining internationally. and one reason that you can present on why that is the case is the case to be done because they have been trying to throw the run in government for the last 40 years. and they have failed every year. every time they have to do that, more independent governments generally oppose this type of behavior because they realize that if united states is successful against these and then the next government may be their own government. and then the general public opposes this type of aggression from the united states. so when you look at even the countries that the government is following us on this,

the general public opposes american history. and this just in there has been another gas explosion in a 3 story residential building. in the western russian city of the level local authorities report at least one casualty with residence being evacuated. we're following the situation as it develops and will keep you updated. the incident comes less than 24 hours since another explosion in this city of voc doors in central russia where 6 people died after 2 floors of a 5 story apartment block were destroyed. 15 people are said to have been injured with more than 50 residents. evacuated from the scene. emergency services are searching for survivors as 7 people are said to still be missing. a gas cylinder leaf was responsible for the blast which affected at least 15 flats in the building . the city's mayor has the.
