company that has gained recognition for his prowess on the battlefield. r. c received access to this group training camp in southern russia and his, our correspondent, with an exclusive report. ah, what a man. several years ago, many people were unaware if this reclusive unit was real or just a spine chilling, mis, but the launch of the special military operation in ukraine. so the wagner group propel to stardom, both in russia 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 was is that much more to work in at the wagner group was founded in 2014 by russian business,

many of guinea pig goshen. his goal was to defend the national interest of russia and the russian world, and don bass and beyond. a vertical dawslet and our team got to spend a whole day with the group to take a look at its different training activities and learn about its daily routines. ah, the okay to put our kids, 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, stucco, heavy located. 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 the difficulty level. 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 our p, jeez. sniper teams also undergo training here. each instructor has a lot of experience and has been deployed to multiple flash points. this range is way people used to learn how to operate specialized military vehicles, such as infantry fighting because an armored personnel carriers. jeremiah's, i added our topic for this class, ducking under a tank. we're working on, your morale and resistance to stress. have go turn a route in faster with

ah well, and that and now let's take a look at the living conditions, a wagner's new recruits, while they train at this base, that as the delay is catalyzed about your living conditions. hormone for their morris. but we have everything we need if, as he can see, we have beds are still in the table. 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. wagner, 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 sphere. well, is the wagner groups philosophy, or sofa chair, pasta similar to how so common purpose is to defend our novela please. even 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 wood is solar is poor, heavy laquatta, this fetishes from the dawn bass. well, wagner gripped soldiers courageously fighting in the special military operation. they're always on the front lines where the conditions are the toughest

awakening, who have member say they're essentially taking part in the special mention 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 realised 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 engaging private military companies, including the wagner group. the government needed to have a say in the hiring of these extremely professional people. or however, the wagner groups activities did not stop training fighters at military bases or even participating in a special operation in ukraine. ah,

i do that, that in november, this year, the crew made international headlines when it's very publicly opened to pmc wagner center as its official headquarters in st. pete's back. ah, in america you are de la center, located here in russia. northern capitol 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 become another center at the wagner center is a techno park, as well as a center for jan. less 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 you have innovative ideas where

presently preparing to hold a hackathons centered around drain operations. who are able to hell of law within a measure, weeks the center has become a bustling meeting place for developers of innovative military technology conflict with 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 these new projects her reality, like factory owners. all of this is done for the sake of boosting rushes defenses. outside of developing the countries potential in the field of military technology and major objective of the center is to counter the information war unleashed against russia. well yeah, it's a white space for jan lesson writers, contributing to popular telegram channels, move board and 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 and all social networks, anti bunker. however, the echo in this program would try to lift a 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 this creation and see where it's headed. we hope we have helped, ah staging to learn more about the new sweating florida. for more in depth reports here about the wagner ruba is rolling the conflict, check out our website, r t dot com and the exclusive document in wagner. pm feet contract with the mother that aah. onyx sorry, 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 rocks refusal to accept regular supplies from this tradition. provider has called twice as to serge, leaving many europeans struggling to heat their homes and smoking protests throughout the region, all the contributions. rachel marsden shares her opinions on the issue. 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 flo young people,

the leader of the populace sovereigns his lip at 3 of the 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, so an 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 do 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 this. the friend satirical magazine, chef viejo published a 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 game,

or heating their home a reference to the cost of energy and the french government's constant browbeating 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 blame it on the fact that some employees of the u. k. whether office work from home, 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 on anti russian energy sections. italian workers and pensioners and rome came out in 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. 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. we are losing money today of course,

but we think the government is not taking enough action. they are simply not assuming their responsibility. the government should just freeze the energy prices . i'm talking about electricity, gas, and diesel fuel. people don't know how to pay for this anymore. meanwhile, in germany, the defense minister christine lam, brecht has been under fire since earlier this month, for the low ammunition levels that berlin has been left with to protect itself 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 18th groom is 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 setting them tanks too bad that nia was going to use them soon

. no, 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, personal affection to africa now a democratic republic of congo has rejected neighboring rwanda's, denial of in vo, witness that the rebellion in the countries shed border thus offer

a statement by rwanda's president who said his country has not been feeling the conflict. the problem was not created by rhonda and it is not drawn this problem. it is congress problem. i cannot be responsible for congolese or rwandan descent in congo who are being denied did right as citizens. little semi de la, the d r. c armed forces are closely monitoring the evolution of the security situation in north kibo, particularly in the territories of miss c. c. and the reagan go. our information shows the presence of an expeditionary group of soldiers from the defense forces of her wanda and the m. 23 co are responsible for perpetrating massacres and targeted killings against members of the to see community. the congo least try to attribute these despicable acts to the armed forces of the d r c. and seek to find an alibi to justify the aggression before the international community. the congolese army has been closely following the movements of their want and military,

which is also called on m. 23 to one gauge in this task. we strongly condemn these plans to carry out a pogrom. meanwhile, real powers of being trying to broker a ceasefire african leaders discuss efforts and the bloodshed during a u. s. has his summons in washington. okay, and talk it over emphasize at all. participants must be involved in the feast tools . the lead of balloon die said that restoring stability the region is of utmost importance. is terrace conflict between the deities full says i have the m 23 insurgent group has intensified in recent months with the rebels coming close to taking a major city near the rwandan border. the d. r. c has accused rolanda of supposedly the m $23.00 and what essentially amounts to a proxy war wonder has denied those obligations. the u. m. has reported that about 370000 people have been displaced by the violence. we heard

from a journalist in nairobi, his spoke about the allegations of rural wanda's involvement in the conflicts customer lay on to say that to be ruined. the comment that statement was and which mentos and his honest assessment because that that convoluted the congolese problem these and combo problem is squarely everyone to an issue fast. he is on record that his country was pursuing the poor post to the government. the people fled into that reformer, redeem or fled in the east and kong when the one sort causing him problems. so he wanted to take the war from them. so the bloodshed to the people is meant for swinging that part of the country that to morrow. his problem is that rundown government believes that especially the president car government believes all the people who are formerly of the old re, jim that was called they did that lead by lead to who to people and those. all

those guys were involved in the fighting, fled to the forest and formed a, a political party and neglect a movement that was poised. that is, whose soul a, mr. trent, topple the government galleys. so that, that, that is critical, that he took the war to them and tried. he's been trying more. lizzie, as that saying they can be a must fight before to because that's where he has to be great. the enemy, right, where they are based. and that was leslie's been problem, that's why he is sent troops. and when he could not send the troops directly, he started sponsoring at rebels in that for you. ah. so the organs now were ethnic serbs heard them protesting on mass and a key border crossing. in the break way, republic of kosovo was ever phases of accused local authorities of committing acts of oppression against ethnic servants. urban relevance amend rising tensions in the

region. place blocked off the main road near the check when, but protesters broke through a somewhat detained. here's what people in the area had to say. we're not, sam, we are so bare. 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 can see these the beginning of the 3rd. so been uprising as we promised them back in 2008. if you don't have a serbian identity card, answer been documents, you must leave customer. now to peacekeeping tubes of also entered the area in an effort to restore peace and also contributed gave us his take on 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 serbia bridget's several 100 people came to the crossing. so both possible carry with that. so flags are asking officers from that side to come to the process so they can express their supports for the services of our kids. the other side, for courses, movie that service we'll gather today. or they're due to the wires and other forms of basically cation the other side, fearing them to serve as might try to closer to the crossing that way, or where for 9 straight days muscle as our help alongside 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 a community leases continues to manage the process where this place and more and more damages are also. ready so the situation is very little actions. and on the other side there are possible rece officers and of course for international forces president in large or so patricia with continued to follow it up.

and now to the middle east where israel has a, you need laterally council the room see over prominent policy and human rights activist and deported him to paris. the move has a spark condemnation from france is foreign ministry as well as his supporters in palestine. such a move constitutes a war crime under international humanitarian law, forcible deportation of a civilian from occupied territories. israel's ethnic cleansing has in its course, has the city of jerusalem, sa, last hometown and israel's expulsion of him as a dangerous precedent for all palestinians in the city. sala hummadi is a lawyer, an activist whom is really a thought. his have accused of links to terrorism. he previously served several years in jail for an alleged assassination plot that he has staunchly denied his. most recent dissension was reposed deadly without formal charges. his mother,

french ancestry, gave us her side of the story in 2000 and high if you it was accused of the learning to plot against employment or be in the stray. ok. he went to prison 7 years for this. then he didn't have any thing wrong, they put him any time in administrative detention in administrative detention. it means without any charging. and they were all the time saying about the same story . he was plotting to kill those about he had her in my estate, his administered tension in 201718 for one year. and then you went out there wasn't charging and again in march, 2022, they arrested him and put him in and minister at detention for 3 months and then another 3 months. and then another similar salary is like an example. not for them . it was an easy case because he has a french passport at the start. they can do it for other people and the other

people are not on the people here at 2 nationalities. so if that evoke the idea of other jerusalem might, where will they go? they want to enter the city of is inhabitants. this thought was solid and they can go on with many others. party as in jerusalem are generally granted only residency, not is really citizenship and that states as can be taken away of person, leaves the city for an extended period of time or for certain security reasons. muslim parsons can apply for citizenship, which is also i think, given to jews, but there have to face burdensome. legal hurdles. israel has reported that about 15000 palestinians have been stripped of their residency status in jerusalem over the past 6 decades. the mother of the recently deported past activists again says that is really, authorities have overstepped their bounds. he discovered this

and like other people working in human rights organization and that his phone has been spy up. so holly's private things know when you have a spy on your phone, it meets all your privacy is gone, the can have the message, the cabin or the picture. you can have everything. so this is the contrary of opposite to the, to the privacy and put the law. the certainly government do whatever they want. they don't care to event that so loud is easy as the french passport, and he has the government to his carrying about him. they wanted him out of the can and just before we go, the faithful world cup has concluded with the coveted trophy go into argent taylor . the south american te merrily aged out the defending champion, france on pallets he kicks and what was exciting finals of all time. his ardent

ears, 3rd woke up title after their previous when more than 3 decades ago. in 1986, the captain and star of the 2 line them as he stood 2 goals in the championship match and finally got the trooper he'd been missing his entire career. he joins argent in football. legend, diego mar, gone as one of the best of all time. pauses hopeful, dashed as they were looking to become the 1st seeming 60 is 2 in 2 consecutive world cups are violent riots and rob sit in front of the national seem was defeated in the world cup police report. we use the water cannon, t gas, and shield and but some charges to disperse. the crowds demonstrated was seen launching far worse, and hurley are the objects of the authorities. dozens of people will rip will to be detained in lebanon, a former french colony. people flocked to the streets to celebrate frances defeat in the will.
