occurred in a very heavily populated area. although didn't w on that back to know could do today we had rocket impact here. i think it's a $122.00 millimeters, which is extremely dangerous. and we have a very small piece here. so unfortunately, it does allow us to determine the origin or it's likely either soviet or american origin. you need to understand that it landed at a kindergarten and has a blast radius of a minimum of 50 meters than i'm 50 meters is from here to the kindergarten. cool. all the children who are within a radius of 50 meters would have died cycle. it's not normal to have a rocket land in a kindergarten yard. it's really very dangerous and you have to show to the whole world, but especially to the french and the americans. indiscriminate san, chaotic artillery shelling of a civilian areas here in the nest has happening on a daily basis. right now. we're in a house off our leg who sustains a lot of damage to his house. now this is a shell from

a multiple launch rock. his system cold, a grand thankfully he no one was hurt in this area, but his property was almost completely destroyed. this sunday most of the world will be watching the finals of the world football championships in cots are. well, right now i'm standing right next to a stadium in done net that host it. that's when seats wealth a euro football championship. and this stadium came on the fire this sunday at 6 o'clock in the morning. now, these are the kinds of craters that can be found all around the stadium. and according to the director, healthy don boss arena, at least $25.00 glass windows have been completely blown out from on casa, have r t done asked republic. meanwhile,

russian defense minister shaw was finished inspecting a group of frontline forces at an undisclosed location of a new york times report claims. ukraine's artillery had tried to kill russia, chief of general staff during his visit to the box to florence in april, ukraine's presidential adviser also confirms the attempt, and se washington had all care not to carry out the assault, fearing an escalation to a developing story in the balkans now were launch number of the rallying. it's a key border crossing in northern cost of the demonstration of speaking out in support of the minority and the breakaway province. russian banners are also being seen the rally. so the police have blocks off the main road in the area with nathan of lead peacekeeping troops, also present to the theme, also contributed nuclear, which brings us later on the 9, the barricades must serve, put the road blocks crossing. so there's been

a protest authorized by serbia bridges, several 100 people came to the crossing. so both possible carry with that. so flag officers from that side to let them come to the crossing so they can express their supports for the services on the barricades. the other side for horses, knowing that service we'll gather today, or they're going to be wires and other forms of basically cation the other side, fearing them to serve as might try to closer to the crossing way or what 9 straight days muscle police officers are help alongside with the rest of them bunch there's been some flashes with serbian police and the,

the demonstrators of since you're being arrested, then they're asking you to police officers to like come closer to the crossing so they can or recently the closest the other side. so it'd be a grease forces are keeping them away and they're reinforcement certain the basically some over x. so that's the violence of the situation is that out for minute minute leases continues to come to the yachting. yeah. administrative process where this all is happening place and there weren't more them strippers are also pattern so. ready situation is a very full affections and on the other side there are also resources. and of course, here for international forces present in large numbers. so sufficient is a pretty interesting at the moment then we will continue to follow up on friday.

denise right is in belgrade. o's, an a spice, i suppose. the cost of i said population with whom to national unity. some was seen burning, separate his flanks and denounced the west and batten. don't be sound proclaimed republic. tensions interrupted last week. off to demonstrate his barricaded. woe to, to prevent the transfer of it attained prominence, said to call for those capital. now, great is off native peacekeepers to allow the country to send up to 1000 security pass now to know when close to like to protect local fed hicho. some of the demonstrators in belgrade had to say it also the digital persecution of the serbian population is taking place in kosovo. people are being arrested for defending their homeland, to the trip to the serbian army should go there and the whole nation wants them there since they can no longer endure the terror and cost almost me tributes. i didn't know sure. i came to support our brothers in coast about who are now going through a difficult period. roy, my family is there and no one knows who will be arrested and will be taken to preach tina and terrorized the middle and out of plenty this week. and serbian

representative accused the christina government of seizing power in the majority said area of mich we're visa, styles of the officials from south proclaimed kosovo, applied to you membership, now great condemned the move on to edged brussels to below kit the russian ambassador to the abbey essays caused those e u membership. it was apparently sanctioned by brussels in advance. yeah, she, she and not all members of the european union recognized kosovo as an independent state. that means the e, you does not have a unified position and cannot achieve overall consensus when it comes to this issue . however, if we take any country in the balkans as an example, even the process of submitting the application for you membership and a public declaration of such intentions is always agreed at the very political top of the you in brussels. this is not something that is done by the balkan states themselves, like other candidates for your membership. but in this case, the european union does not allow any kind of independence. that is why we should not exclude the possibility,

but rather we should actually assume that some kind of agreement was already in place beforehand. brussels has not objected to this and pristine air received permission to publicly formulate such a request into the russian foreign ministry has called them all dave and governments decision to band at a 6 russian language tv channels, a crackdown on free speech. we can see that this been an unprecedented active political censorship. an outrage against the principle of media pluralism and the gross violation of the right to freedom and access to information to which the political leadership of the republic regularly declares its commitment. in light of the unprecedented consequences of its implementation for the russian speaking part of the country's population would also qualify it as a cynical infringement of the rights of national minorities would demand international guns ations to give an adequate assessment of what happens and take all appropriate measures to correct this an acceptable situation. officials claimed

the media outlet saw to be shot down to you to what they call the threat of pro russian views being broadcast across moldova, the officials. i did that the channels coverage of the ukraine conflict is inappropriate. one local journalist was even blocked on facebook, are describing her frustration at the decision in a post. here's how she responded to the media ban. camecia bird should have returned. they should go, i'd say the emergency situations commission has banned the broadcasting of 6 channels in the republic of moldova, b, i consider this to be an lawlessness. it's pure dictatorship in our country than yeah, unfortunately, this is happening to day when the republic is fighting for development in democracy . this has all been trampled by our government thus hobbled with lava. oh, dove as parliament as those are mulling over a bell aimed at scaling back the countries at soviet air. legacy as lawmakers are now seeking to rename the nation's official language from moldova. and so you romanian many pro western politicians there have been pushing for the move ever since moldova declared independence from the u. s. s. r. and 1990. 1 is,

comes amid ongoing protests against president my son do, and had government's handling of the country's economy marked as have been organized by main opposition. figures on the owners of the band channels demonstrate to say they will now contract a thought back in western sanctions against moscow, which already lead smiling, inflation and energy, clara. another journalist whose shallow faces the bomb says the government has crossed a red line. usually prospering slow, why not simple words? what happens is, what with you the most and hoped until the last that it would not happen because there are certain red lines that no one has ever crossed, no matter what regime is in the power over. it seems to me that whether a tv channel works well or not, should always be decided by the audience. the fact that these channels had not covered the agenda, the way the resume would like to be heard. story by what about freedom of speech? what about european democratic norm? what about the pluralism of opinions that they talked about during the election

campaign? we all remember how the current leaders recently spoken russian of you and they are election campaigns. and the fact that they are now in power suggested the russian speaking population of mo, don't believe them right? now the reason the only country roots restrict thing media freedoms and the round of sanctions that you with freezing to ortiz, european office, brussels is seizing assets belonging to us. he's pairing company on the tv nova stay in europe as well as functioning a number of other russian channels. all of this in an effort to silence the russian perspective by leaving outlets without the means to operate. while the move comes as part of the new round, devante russian sanctions agreed by the european council as well as media resources . that's at the target russians military. industrial complex by expanding the export ban on technology for the aerospace industry, including ad crossed engines and spare parts for drones. you will also ban any new investments in the russian energy sector. unfreeze the assets of 2 russian banks.

package. the sanctions on russia follows multiple similar moves, though their effect has been questioned. former austrian vice chancellor say if you wish to think itself in the foot with the restrictions we've been through a lot lately. we've survived the sanctions policy that misled us under the pretext that the sanction policy would bring russia to its knees. the russians have doubled their business. there is no question of bringing russia to its knees. it's over. on the contrary, we see how austria harms itself and how europe harms itself, where we ourselves actually suffered more from the sanctions. and we see rising prices for electricity and gas in for food in europe. more and more people will suffer from this. and his comments to r t austria is vice x and x. the vice chancellor rather explained how europe is bearing the bronze, the anti russian sanctions. ah,

digital bag and a busy don't. today we are experiencing dramatic shortages in the raw materials sector in the gas sector. in the electricity sector in the energy sector, but also price explosions, which of course affect industry the economy. but above all the citizens and the people who then have to experience massive price increases. in some cases, households or experience a 6 fold increase in prices. and people are really severely burdened and struggling with poverty. many companies are on the verge of closing down, which is accompanied by rising unemployment. ah, so what all facebook that's due to the sanctions we're doing without shape russian gas in which a lot has been invested. russian gas was essential for central europe's economic and industrial prosperity in the last decades. also thanks to the good price that's brought prosperity, not only to germany, but also to austria. and now we're seeing that, of course,

due to the sanctions policy. we're suddenly supposed to switch to american fracking gas, which is very expensive, which is also not environmentally friendly. and which will then be transported to europe, i shift. ah, so is it only more come out to show the situation is becoming more and more dramatic. and this leads to many protests and demonstrations in the streets where people peacefully point out this undesirable development and say, it's not acceptable. we damage ourselves by imposing sanctions. yes. and in the end, people are confronted with the catch phrase that they have to freeze for peace. and then you come to the conclusion. well, freezing doesn't help because unfortunately, there is no peace because there are no negotiation initiatives. and then you become unemployed. and unemployment has not brought peace because there are no nego jason initiatives. and that is what people naturally find very repulsive and very

questionable. washington has wrapped up his 1st summit with african leaders in 8 years. and despite the advent officially being focused on addressing issues affecting africa, washington insisted on bringing russia into the equation. it's very powerful because you hear countries that are, we're here in washington this week. gonna kenya. so many others that had been the victims of imperialism in the past. and who see that now happening to ukraine by russia? or during the 3 days so met the u. s. declared the importance of africa in solving global problems and a bit to compete with africa as other partners. china and russia. washington has already signed deals with $15000000000.00 on foist support for the african union bid for g 20 membership. the u. s. secretary of defense also tried to accuse russia and china of the stabilizing activities in africa. beijing responded by urging

washington to stop using africa as an arena for power games. however, not all african countries were allowed to attend the u. s. hosted summit guinea sedan eritrea. molly amber kina faso didn't receive an invitation because either because they've been suspended from the african union or because they lack diplomatic ties with the u. s. a. we spoke to a number of people from those countries who shared their opinions about us intentions in africa. a lot of it, france in the usa, a rejected in africa. it's due to their politics. this initiative is a way to preserve their image in africa while wishes to have a trusted partner who is honest and to bring good ideas in the right equipment to help us to fight this phenomenon on our territory. a. ringback it's an opportunity for joe biden to bring the us back to their former position in africa because united states of america are trying to take advantage of it. but for a long time,

we've been under the leadership of european it's them who colonized this and they all the origin of all these things to show. i believe the u. s. is targeting europe to place in africa for luck that i was don't carry. i'll kill host of ortiz, the whistleblower. stacy. us had another reason for not inviting those countries to the summit. even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy and have in some cases scheduled democratic elections that still wasn't good enough for the united states. and so these 5 countries weren't invited, and i'll add that these 5 countries are 5 that in which the united states can't make any money right now, russia is very popular in africa. china, china is very popular in africa, and the western countries are not. there not because they, they ignored the needs of the church, of the african people, and the african governments for many, many years. the u. s. presence is literally

a one of, of war. the only real us presence in any of these countries is a paramilitary force. look at molly, for example, or mauritania, or any of the other of this a hell countries needs year. we only know by accident because of a leak, that the united states has a military presence there. a military presence that has not been approved by congress, whose job it is just to, to kill people. and to try to keep up these host governments in power. the cambridge dictionary has caused an uproar by adding a reference to transgendered and his definition of a man and the woman. that dictionary now mentions people who identify as that one of 2 genders, even if they were born as a different sex, while claiming that gender the maley assigned at birth and can be changed. it will . cambridge is one of the last major english dictionaries to supplement its man and woman section with a transgender agenda. and the controversial move has sparked some 5th backlash on

social media. try and tell me they're not trying to erase women. cambridge dictionary have changed the definition of a woman. this can not be accepted. we will not be erased. women equals adult human female, not someone who i done to fight as a female. and more erasure of women by men, cambridge dictionary updates definition of women. they won't stop until we don't remember what real women are anymore. cambridge dictionary officials have justified that ended by saying that they came as a result of studying usage perkins and his end of making sure that english learners are well how the language is used today. let's discuss this with independent journalist shave bowes now is say many thanks for joining us on the program. now, this change does seem to be causing a lot of upset with some people, but it's also going to be making a lot of people very happy with your take on the updates in the dictionary. yeah,

i think, you know, like many things right now in europe and in the us, having even opinions on this can be quite controversial. i suppose that feeds into the narrative around the sense that, you know, you're, you're meant to agree with this. you're meant to agree with this whole agenda, just woke agenda and disagreeing with or even questioning a kid lunch in some hot water. i think most reasonable people agree that the definition of a woman is, is, is a woman, a female female that can produce children. and that, you know, deciding that you want to identify as, as a woman, doesn't make you a woman and people are j. k. rowling and others have come out and sort of in a very common sense way and said that it's not to attract minority, it's not to victimize anybody, but again. and you want to sense from that narrative. and i think the dictionary as well are being drawn into this page and you know, to woken us are feeding into that and,

and that's the reason this occurred was supposed when my father, you say that yes, it's complicated, but you can't just shy away from it this is how the language is used today. so shouldn't we just accepted a move? yeah, i think i think for many things to be changed. many. yeah. you know, abbreviations and realities can be changed. i think it's women. you know, predominantly who are coming out to challenge this, this move. so i think you have to listen to women. the vast a majority of women who, you know, are transgender. and again, remember, did the people who are becoming women in notionally, according to the dictionary. i'm in and i think that's a lot of the younger is based on that, that this has to be consulted with women on a wider basis. and you know, it's about when does know defending an individual's rights are minorities, like the company quoted on the rights of a majority to have their, their views hurt. so what came which dictionary is saying is that it's carefully

studied usage, patterns of the word woman and concluded that this definition is it is this definition and is typically like how learners should be aware of how to support them. sorry, i've lost my, my, my thought now basically cambridge dictionary is, is not pushing. it's opinion here is many reflecting how the language is used today . yeah, i think again, it's about, you know, an agenda, an agenda, a small minority. it would be very vocal in support of this, or trans john transgender ism, and, you know, would be supported. and rather than, than having an open debate on it, you know, i don't know how this was democratically decided, but there's, there's, this dictionary force isn't used across the globe. and you know, in europe alone, you've got, you know, tens of millions of muslims, not the other majority. religion would be christian if, if any religion at all that's or the, the, the traditional view of what

a woman is ingrained in that culture. and i don't, i don't think that change in a ditch resenting bush that's sort of not to woke. is it? i think it's, it's almost cynical in some way. some of the cambridge dictionary is used all over the world as we know, including in places where culture doesn't support or even tolerate sexual minorities. in fact, it would be not right, crime and some nation sadly. so just how inclusive or in fact exclusive is this change to the dictionary? yeah, well, it exactly as, as you say, i think this is the point. i mean, at what point does the, you know, defense of a minority, a small minority, you know, become an offense to a large majority. and it seems to me that, you know, this is stampede towards woken us. and to, you know, is this promotion of, of chance, transgender ism, and that's, that's the big debate. what point do the majority, i get to, you know, a firm,

their views without being called conspiracy tiers right. wing. and, you know, advocates or hateful individuals not talking about trying to demonize or marginalize anybody. it's about the right not to agree. the right not to have sort of chat transgender isn't. and the woke agenda talk to our kids and schools, etc. i think that's the bigger debate here. so many thanks for joining us on the park on stay independent as that in paris protested to the streets, demanding changes in france, his energy policy on coding to revise the country's relationship with russia. skywalker think it energy prices have caused the public outrage on to have led to the protest. it demands that current french president emanuel mcclung be impeached people march through the signs of paris holding signs. but lighting that discontent with nato and e leaders. the president of the patriots party called the situation, the country, a literal college as a depression has hit small businesses,

and the government is ignoring people's needs. no official comments have come from the french government, but the patriots leader said thousands of people joined in the rally. he gave us his comment on the current situation. trucks. there's also a greg. there are still many battles to be fought. there are countries in the situation of economic collapse and our demands are very simple to withdraw from the single european electricity market in order to lower energy prices. to save our bakeries, to save our artisans, to saber factories, and to end the anti russian sanctions that did not serve to establish peace there. but bring misfortune here and also to invite the parliamentary opposition to shake things up a little. because today they have problems with us can always go to our website, find out all the latest news updates will be back in 30 minutes with more see them ah.
