local officials say, hold fees for me as well as 6 the apartments and dozens of calls are damaged in the attacks. a russian air defense system reportedly managed to shoot down at least one ukraine and missile that had been heading towards a residential area. elsewhere in the done asked republic, there is 55 soon for another strategic the important says is russia forces make involved with methodical artillery attacks, one of the main roles and the russian offense who has been full and by the wagner group, a private medical company that has gained a resignation for his prowess on the battlefield. odyssey received access to the roots, training camp in southern russia and his correspondent, with an exclusive reports. ah,

quite a man. several years ago, many people were unaware if this reclusive unit was real or just a spine chilling mist. but the launch of the special military operation in ukraine saw the wagon group propel to start them both in rush and beyond. today have to been given a unique opportunity to see where the group is based. we're going to visit several locations. and our mission is to understand just who this private military company is. i bond was, is it much more to work? and then the wagner group was founded in 2014 by russian business, many of guinea pig origin. his goal was to defend the national interest of russia and the russian world, and don bass and beyond a

vertical dots which in our team got to spend a whole day with the group. take a look at its different training activities and learn about its daily routines. ah, patty, okay, to put out this military base serves as the groups main training center. it includes a shooting range where service men hone their skills using different types of firearms. o heavy guide, it's located in the south of russia, people from all over the country come to train here. but again, at this range, we provide military training, starting with simple exercises and, and gradually increased difficulty leveled. it begins with individual training activities and ends with seen training as an assault unit. this is also where we

train specialists to use different types of weapons, such as mortars, automatic grenade launchers, and r p g 's sniper teams also undergo training here. each instructor has a lot of experience that has been deployed to multiple flash blad, this range is why people used to learn how to operate specialized military vehicles, such as infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers. jeremiah's, i added our topic for this class, ducking under a tank, we're working on your morale and resistance distress. horse. go turn a route in faster. we're still ah well and then. and now let's take a look at the living conditions or wagner's new recruits. while they train at this

base, but as with hello, tell us about your living conditions almost for their modest but we have everything we need it. as you can see we have beds still and a table. you know, we come here after training which can even take place at night, because there are many you, comas, and they only to get quality training where the members have different levels of combat experience and different story on how and why they joined the group. what unites them, though, is the reasons for being here, patriotism, law for their motherland, and a sense of duty to protect their countries interests. oh, i'm from vulgar grad. i used to be a combat, samo fighter, i served in the army. i joined the company to find my calling in the military. severe war is the wagner groups. philosophy also took roster, similar to how so common purpose is to defend our novela please. even at the

wagner fighters get all kinds of training here as side of learning to use firearms at the shooting range. they are taught to provide 1st aid training. mrs. bergen in military medicine instruction means teaching personnel how to help themselves and others on the battlefield with a focus on the most typical scenarios. here we're working with different devices that helps stop bleeding while teaching our guys how to evacuate wounded solar is poor idea. laquatta, this is from the dumbass. well, wagner crypt soldiers are courageously fighting in a special military operation. they're always on the front lines where the conditions are the toughest. i don't need to remember say they're essentially taking part in the special military operation on a volunteer basis. however, legislative initiatives have been prepared to regulate their activities

several years ago, we prepared a professional draft law. in march of this year after the started the special military operation, we decided now was the right time. we realized that private military companies were already involved in the fighting, but we thought it would be appropriate to have legislation in place, govern all aspects of engage in private military companies. including the wagner group, the government needed to have a say in the hiring of these extremely professional people. or like however, the wedding groups activities do not stop training fighters at military bases, or even participating in a special operation in ukraine. ah, glad you that, that in november, this year, the group made international headlines when it's very publicly opened the pmc wagner center as its official headquarters in san pix back. ah, in america you are not

a center located here in russia. northern capped hill is a small hub which attracts engineers military and information technology experts who can support innovative projects such as designing unmanned aerial vehicles and other equipment ah to recovery center at the wagner center is a techno park, as well as the center for john les and engineers willing to work for the benefit of their country. it's our response to silicon valley if you will. we're trying to engage scientists to welcome breakthrough projects, along with military engineers and all those who have innovative ideas. we are presently preparing to hold a hackathons centered around drain operations, who are able to hell of law. within a matter of weeks, the center has become a bustling meeting place for developers of innovative military technology. going up to fort young engineers and they are older, more experienced colleagues come here with valuable ideas. we connect them with

those who have been means to make this new projects her reality, like factory owners. all of this is done for the sake of boost in rushes defenses. we're outside of developing the countries potential in the field of military technology and made her objective of the center is to counter the information war unleashed against russia. william, it's a wet space for jan lesson right as contributing to popular telegram channels. warmly. gordon, we're essentially a group of volunteers. at one point we started identifying fake news in the media a so launch cyber funds on telegraph. we currently have over 112000 subscribers. we searched for fake news in western media on social networks, anti bunker. however, the echo in this program will try to lift the veil of secrecy on one of the most elusive. and yet, one of the most written about private military companies in the world with the aim of helping you to understand the reasons behind his creation and see where it's

headed. we have, we have health ah staging to learn more about than use weapons, florida for more in depth with posey a brother wagner group on it role that of that check out our website oxy dot com and the exclusive documentary wagner pm seat contract with the mother and another development in the convent russia has been building a protective dome over a nuclear power plant to keep it safe from potential for their attacks by ukrainian forces, amid international called for a cease fire. the visit has his ears logged with atomic power plot. a local senior official says he, the new foots vacation should save god nuclear fuel storage is facilities against

auxilary sharing and address strikes. russia has repeatedly raised the along about ukrainian tax on the plant and the official wall. not the dumb isn't a concrete guarantee of safety. oh usa go h o. we talk about the security of this approach. a nuclear power plant than the protective dome being built at an extraordinary speed to cover the nuclear fuel storage facility is one of the security measures the russia provides to protect against the zalinski regime terrorists who are engaged in nuclear terrorism. while the i. e. a says that the shelling at this approach a plant is wrong. at the same time, it says that they do not know where the shooting is coming from. russia as the one ensuring security in this position. that is not a complete solution to all these problems. but it is to a large extent, the minimization of the risks that exist the cease fire is insured by the high quality inaccurate work of the russian arrows. these forces and the russian artillery, which suppress enemy firing positions from where the strikes are conducted. all

other methods haven't worked the only option for an effective security zone around his approach in nuclear plants can only be the rejection of the armed forces of ukraine. moving from the front line to a distance from which they will not be able to strike everything else is a variation on the theme of the minsk agreements where russia always complies. but as deceived. deception here is too costly. only russia's tough position and successes on the front line can guarantee security at the plant, the level of danger. and the risk of a nuclear catastrophe depend on the type of weapons that are currently in the hands of ukraine. the heavier the weapons, the greater the risks i rate the probability is much higher than average. but these risks are decreasing as the russian side counters. the nuclear terrorism of the zalinski regime. bloomberg has reported that the e u has suffered losses of about one trillion dollars due to his rejection of

russian natural gas. impose the blow refusal to accept regular supplies from his traditional providers, pulled prices to serge, leaving many europe is struggling to heat their homes and swell him for the us throughout the region. all t contributor rachel miles and shares her opinions on the issues. french protesters hit the streets here in paris over the weekend, and absolutely freezing sub 0 celsius temperatures, because well, protesting vigorously is probably far cheaper to keep warm than sitting at home and turning on the heat these days here in europe. and the marchers don't seem to have any problem. identifying those responsible for their energy was pointing the finger at nato and tipping their brace to european commission. president ursula vander line by chanting. ursula shut up, flavio philipo. the leader of the populace sovereigns as lip athletic party. who routinely speaks in favor of a strong, independent france. explain just how bad things are right now for the average

french citizen calling for an end to europe, sanctions against the block zone energy supply from russia and denouncing them as a hindrance to peace. there are still many battles to be fought 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 save our factories, and to end the anti russian sanctions that would 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. the french satirical magazine shuffled he had though, published the cartoon ahead of sunday's world cup final of france against argentina . joking that the french would have to choose between turning on the tv to watch the. ready game or heating their home, a reference to the cost of energy and the french government's constant brow beating

of its own citizens to cut down on consumption elsewhere in the u. k. for example, things are looking even more dire with the british press. reporting that the persistent, frigid weather there is leaving british households on the brink of rolling power cuts, if not, outages and blackouts. now, the energy secretary is trying to it on the fact that some employees of the u. k. whether office work from home on the some of the time and may have underestimated the cold weather event. or maybe the u. k. government just underestimated how much it would ultimately deregulate its own energy supply went white, gung ho. i'm anti russian energy sanctions, italian workers and pensioners in rome came out an opposition to the maloney governments 2023 budget, demanding that it do more to offset the cost of living crisis there. this budget will not bring any good to the italian economy. it will slowly lead us to economic ruin and the bankruptcy of our nation. today,

we are on the streets to protest against the government because of its cuts to public health care and education. we are here to protest against the destruction of public health care and welfare programs. yes, i was. so we are on the streets to protest against the government budget, which from our point of view does not protect the weakest groups. it proposes measures in favor of a few and not for the people who need it most. more than $15000.00 belgian union workers protested in brussels on friday, demanding higher wages to offset the cost of energy and inflation. we receive wages that are fixed at a certain level and with the rise in energy prices. many people have found themselves unable to pay their bills. the government has to make some strong decisions. we have been fighting for years. we demand change most of georgia. we are losing money today of course, but we think the government is not taking enough action. they are simply not assuming their responsibility to the government should just freeze the energy

prices. i'm talking about electricity, gas, and diesel fuel as people don't know how to pay for this any more. meanwhile, in germany, the defense minister christine lam, bracht has been under fire since earlier this month for the low ammunition levels that berlin has been left with to protect sells as it sends military assistance to ukraine. so now in german, chancellor, all i shall says that, well, there won't be any tanks for ukraine next year. oh, and speaking of german tanks, berlin's puma, infantry fighting vehicles were such a big head during the recent training exercise that of the 18 pumas that participated. none, that is 0 still works by the end of the exercise. so maybe show his doing ukraine a favor there by not saying them tanks too bad. that neo was going to use them soon though. whoops. despite the mounting problems for european western governments and

citizens, washington is still forging ahead with a new defense budget. and congress is authorizing $500000000.00 more than what biden asked for it to continue funding ukraine security assistance. so that makes it a total of $800000000.00 for the fiscal year 2023, which is basically going straight into the pockets of the u. s. military industrial complex at levels even far above spending during the korean or vietnam war, or at the peak of the cold war. so it's business as usual for washington, seemingly oblivious to the toll that feeling this conflict is taking on citizens from ukraine to europe. ah, washington has express increasing worries about the developing partnership between russia and iran. the ca chew says he's wary of mascara extending their reach across them, at least historically there's

a lot of mistrust between russians and iranians, but they need each other right now. currently, the united states is witnessing the emergence of the 1st stage of co operation between the 2 countries. they are already influencing the course of events in ukraine, and if they strengthen such relations can dangerously affect the situation in the middle east. and while the u. s. is against, let's sing, other than who the middle east, washington has a long history of meddling in the region. the invasion of iraq us backs top bring of live, it's government, and the american support for insurgence. and so just a few recent examples we heard from a geopolitical ex worth of the university of toronto. it's natural, wrong to name tools, russia the united states wants to keep the current world order intact. and that's what they mean by international law. they mean

a world order where they dominate, where they control and where their european rascals and their proxies across the globe and their client regimes, they control this empire. but the fact is that this empire is crumbling. the united states, as a, basically brought this misery upon itself. it's only natural that iran is going to tilt towards russia then towards europe after all, the historical injustices towards the wine towards afghanistan, syria, venezuela, cuba, nicaragua, yemen, libya, and the list goes on. and then, of course, nato provocations their advancement eastward to europe without any real need to do so, and they have no legitimate ground to stand on. and to complain to you, ron, about it's close relationship with russia at any level

group of us democratic lawmakers of center letters, the global football governing body fee for they've expressed concern to the decision to bomb the rainbow, colored l g, b t q on violence during the wilcox and cutoff soccer is often called the universal language, but fif is positioned, undermines the sports power of transcending divisions and bringing people together . we look forward to your prompt response and assurances that future fifo vents are inclusive to all research. josie is illegal in car thighs punishable by several years in prison under domestic law. the coaches gilvais said in advance of the will cut, but they would welcome everyone to come enjoy the tournament. as long as they would respect, live local culture. yes for the job widens, spoken out in defense of the l. g. b, c, q, community. the u. s. has a station in neighboring same sex marriages, ivan,

shoes of effectual. such couples from affect, suit, offences against their orientation. love is love, right. is right. justice is justice, these things are fundamental things that america thinks matter. this law and the love it defend strike a blow against hate in all its forms. and that's why this law matters to every single american was the thing years ago then south of biden also made a statement about marriage, which completely contradicted his cornerstones as president. marriage is between a man and a woman. and states must respect that. why do we need a constitutional amendment? marriage is between a man and a woman. we heard from radio host, some puzzle commentators sieve gill, who says it's, but it's actually promot, liberty, them to demand changes to a foreign culture. all cultures should be respected and again, we shouldn't be promoting or encouraging violence in any country against any

population. but then there countries, but trying to impose your morals are, in some cases immorality on other countries. does. it doesn't make any sense. it is not going to increase the respect for america or the groups that are promoting the sorts of of policies. i think you always do better in the international arena when you are encouraging movement in a more progressive way in a more free way. promoting freedom and liberty by encouragement, rather than being sort of a strong arm and, and putting down demand like we're seeing in this letter from the, from the democrats. i don't think it's going to have any real impact. i think we're going to see a cutter in the rest of the middle east. pretty much ignore this as soon as the world come by. games are over as they are now. i think again, it's about them trying to promote themselves through their own political base and probably to some political donors rather than actually trying to change the minds of the sanctions. now to the bolton were ethnic

serves the protesting on mass and a key border crossing in the break way. republic, of course of the demons. i do have accused the local authorities of committing acts of a fashion against them. amid writing in the region, please the blocks off the main road near the check point, but processes both through and some would be pain. is what people in the area to say not to some, we are so bad. this is serbian territory, as guaranteed by the constitution. we don't want them to isolate our territory. we have come here to drive home the message that we will fight for kosovo. i consider these the beginning of the 3rd serbian uprising as we promised them back in 2008 if you don't have a serbian identity cart and sir ben documents, you must leave coastal ne, so peace heaping troops have also entered the error in efforts to restore peace and

also contributed, gave us his take on or what's been happening on the administrative border. on the surface book, there are blocks crossings in optimal. so there's been a protest authorized by serbian fidgets, several 100 people came to the crossing. so both possible carry with flags and officers from that side to let them down to the process so they can express their supports for the services of our kids. the other side for courses, knowing that the service we'll gather today are there due to the wires and other forms of basic cation, the other side, fearing them to serve as might try to closer to the crossing way,

or where for 9 straight days. muscle officers are held alongside to the rest, the down bodies. there's been some flashes with the serbian police officers who have been arrested then they're asking the police officers to come closer to the crossing. so they can basically be close to the other side. and police forces keeping them away and they're very unfortunate basically over acts of violence. and the situation is that out of minutes, community issues continue to manage the process where this all is happening. grace and more and more the demonstrators are also so strict.
