according to ukraine officials who blamed russia for the attack. oscar was yet to comment. russian officials have consistently denied toggles in civilian areas. although keith dismisses these claims to crimea. now where russian air defense systems have reported the repeal, the crane in drew an attack. oh oh, there is one drone is said, so been shot down according to local media and all depot on the south east of the russian peninsula, wilson targets of the quin attack amount to the situation in the dumbass way. you kind of forces have been shutting the city of domains. in this, on a verified footage, you can see what appears to be the aftermath of the strikes in which several areas of the city were targeted. local authorities and officials say the tax left over $15000.00 people without electricity and 2 people injured. as the showing continues

while the f one content now hunger island diseases are a threat to entire generation of africans. that's the stalk warning from the debate show foundation with the horn of africa region, including kenya. if you piano somalia in the spotlight as vocal suffer from an ongoing drought, the u. n is also sounding the alarm. we urge the international community to commit to responding now for what might hit the horn of africa next year. and in the years to come, we must act now to save children's lives, preserve their dignity, and protect their futures. recent you and revolt says that 24000000 people now face water shortages because of drought in the region. the number of children suffering from hunger, thirst, and disease doubling in 5 months. 2000000 people have been forced to leave their homes due to the most severe drought in more than 2 generations. however,

it seems at global resources to help africa may not be enough. as western countries show a shift in their aid priorities. in 2022 european governments contributed just 21 percent of all humanitarian aid to african countries. down 16 percentage points from 2018. now that's as the u. n warns of the huge gap between the amount needed by african nations and that donated, for example, for the democratic republic of congo. the u. s. managed to collect around a 3rd of what's needed and for ethiopia, just half of the money needed has been received. we spoke with a climate activist from uganda who says that africa climate change issues of being caused by the global north. the actions or the global know over is treat and action and you king polluting industries for the prices because the,

the heaviest. and they want to be more to the crisis. africa needed competition because africa is the most affected continent in the world when it comes to climate crisis. and even the decisions made by other civilizations affect the african quote in so much. so africa was presented especially by the global most by providing the loose and i made you found which they missed. are people a suffering people? we have our mother than to the west lake tombstones across the landscape of our point in it because the b that's does the splitting us every bit. people are moving group for survival and they can't find that was so the global news is heavily to blame for closing that climate crisis failed to stop on a good investment love. how was for us politician,

hillary clinton views ukraine? according to a statement she made for present valencia's address to american lawmakers in washington. no one is asking for a blank check. i believe that the ukrainians have proven that they are a really good investment for the united states. they are not asking us to be there to fight their ward. they're fighting at themselves. they're asking us and our allies for the means to not only defend themselves, but to actually when says a source of rose's rosie operation, washington has wrecked me near directed denny, $50000000000.00 in aid. so ukraine, the majority going towards a weapon, systems training and intelligence that's a vast amount of aid when compared to some of the us recipients. washington gave our fast on 10 times less in annual funding, despite a 20 image involvement. folks,

these host tucker calls and wondered what is behind the enormous amounts of money provided to ukraine from the us budgets? this money, zalinski said is quote, an investment. oh, in investment. so what exactly are the terms of this investment now the we're talk in finance. when do we get our dividend checks was let's get in specified that the other words, the return on our investment in ukraine will be more pitches for more. c investments in ukraine. give me money so i can demand more money. that's what zalinski promised us last night. they alters the lenses and gresham will address the us says, approved an additional $45000000000.00 in 80 peeve. the decision was made despite recent polls suggesting that average americans don't consider the ukraine a top priority. inflation, elections, issues and crime are of much more concern. but the by the administration says no sign of relenting in support of you claim, janice, and all 3rd,

daniel lazar believes that the u. s. is using crane to achieve its foreign policy goals. hillary clinton is very happy to have others do. america's dirty work board doesn't matter. it doesn't matter to her how many ukrainians die. how many ukrainian cities are devastated. as long as the u. s. gets what it wants, and that is essentially a heavily militarize, the nato wise, the ukraine, and a russia that is surrounded and militarily weakened and eventually leading to regime change in moscow. that's what america wants and, and it thinks that by, by finding a proxy war in the ukraine, that's what it will get. other allies will pay a price as well. i mean, germany is seeing it, industry gutted. europe is,

is reeling economically and politically. so they will pay an enormous price to, but the only thing that the washington cares about is america's own fortunes. the french president says, europe names the limit is dependent on washington, then nato. emanuel micron has weighed in with his mates and take on the future. in security, europe needs to gain more autonomy and technology and defense capabilities, including from the u. s. and alliance isn't something i should depend on. it's something i should choose, something i work with. we must rethink our strategic autonomy, a stronger alliance act and inside need to with nature, but also not depending on nato peer a manual. come on, president of the international association euro clinton continent says europeans need to seek their security independently of nato, which is an instrument allow us a european suit,

seeing more in touchstone independence from united states and nato and try we've equation of the readings between european leaders will think we should ever more security we russia included or should promote of id nato is in this matter united states to try to cut or links between russia and western europe and to maintain a supremacy europe. so france, according to we're good is doctrine or to promote its own approach or would like to promote a europe and security interest. you rush included, but problem ease. oh, to conveys a poland budget state, sir german to do it. and i think we even need to is going to be varied if you could, you should be outside natal because note, nay. who is nuts cannot be reformed. as long as we don't stop in nashville on nato on it. and following this decision to negotiate

a new european security arrangement, russia included us or virginia got the goal, anticipate each on a busy, so for equal european of nations is going to be very difficult. ah, beijing has last out at the u. s. national defense little throws ation act, which has allocated up to $10000000000.00 and security assistance for taiwan. try that considers the disputed island its own territory and accuses washington of undermine stability in the region. the case ignores the facts to exaggerated china threat wantonly interferes in china's internal affairs and attacks and smears the chinese communist party, which a serious political provocations to china. let's get more from our chorus for the surf in an hour. so thanks for joining us there. so will you tell us about the details and the timing of this and latest route between the us and china?

well, the theory comes the next day after the u. s. president joe biden signed defense bill authorizing $10000000000.00 and military aid for time wind throughout the next 5 years. the bill also allows to fast track weapons acquisition for the asian country, while chinese authorities criticized this decision, timelines, foreign ministry, thank the u. s. government for quote, showing the great importance it's attaches to taiwan us relations and strengthened into one security. although after more than $100000000.00 in 8 sent to ukraine within a year after that switch $1000000.00 spent in afghanistan, $10000000000.00 for tie wind might seem like a change. but to put it into perspective, the u. s. former president donald trump was impeached for withholding nearly $400000000.00 in aid for ukraine. the total allocated formula to expanding in the latest bill is $858000000.00. this is the highest price stack. the u. s. has ever

since back to i so thanks so much for bringing us up to speed there. i'm sure we'll get more on that later on. thanks again for your time. and other developments parson in jonas side article has been banned from twitter, with no response so far to his appeal against the decision the last to pursue on his account before he was brian was a photo of 2 is ready. security officials during an attempt to the rest of an on palestinian who subsequently died. said ari cut regularly attends of the us state department media briefings in washington. he represents the policy in our goods newspaper, which has recently banned on facebook. so, so thanks so much for joining us. we're going live down to you. we appreciate you, julia here. see now, why has this happen, man, did you expect such a bomb?

no, i did not. thank you for having me on the show here, but no, i never thought that i never expected that i would be suspended. and as they called us permanently suspended and i had upwards of 50000 tweets and retreats and no problem whatsoever. i joined in 2011. i had thousands of followers and so i never, never had any issues with twitter. i mean i mainly do tweet on issues that matter, which is political issues. basically, everything, washington, everything, them, italy, you know, on the green war and all kinds of things, things that really matter to everyone. so that, that said, basically i never expected that i was, you know, from time to time i was getting harassed by people that do not like me for whatever

reason. and they use it later as a platform, you know, like bullying or trying to disrupt what i do and so on. but never really beyond that, i never expected to spend the short answer. so they do think that there's a chart that they'll reinstate to your account. i mean there have been other we've heard throughout the time and some journalists, they've had the accounts frozen or temporary bind. have you heard anything from twitter? have you made a sort of request to have it reinstated again? indeed, right away there is a link to appealing which i did almost immediately. i had sent the messages every single day since they suspended me on the 3rd of december, i do reminders every day. i never heard back from them. i know there was a few journalists, liberal journalists call them because they were suspended because they it,

we do things about the alarm musk and the issue was raised in the state department on the 16th of december. and you know, i, i said i was banned as well. i was suspended as well. and lo and behold the following day, all the others were reinstated, but not be so i continue to be suspended. i believe that it is directly related to the issue. there is no other reason you know, that you mentioned last month that i did, which was the 2nd of december. it was actually a retreat. buy and is ready to dana been shown on her. she's. she's the west bank correspondent or the path in affairs correspondence for israel high on a right wing, the newspaper. so all i did was just read what she needed. so that is exactly the, the genesis of this thing or the chronology over help say,

i mean you write your journalist, you write for kids a newspaper. busy is a policy and publication. we know that you're allowed to attend the u. s. state department press briefings. i believe yet. hey, we are. so sir. do you think there's a foreign influence? do you think the u. s. government could be pushing twitter, either muscle, whoever's in charge these days to buy and you because you're speaking up against israel. i don't believe that the government and then i say it says doing that. you know, i have been in a picture in the state department. i've been going there for the better part of 21 years and so on. you know, it's in for a short period of time when i was an added nation spokesmen in iraq. you know, i was, i go daily whenever the press briefing is there i am there, i have the space in the bullpen and the state department. and so i don't believe it is the government. then i see it. however, i do believe that there is that,

you know, maybe at some point in japan as maybe from israel, maybe from the re, the think tanks and israel, maybe the pro is really lobby and then i'd say i was locked by a pack, which is the premier pro israel lobby group and then i'd say it was several years back to 33 years ago i was locked by the former us ambassador to russia. mike mcfall, but that's about the extent of it. you know, by jeffrey goldberg, i never really had any issues. so i am, you know, i believe that it is more likely that they have been influenced by pro is read the elements, whether it is really government itself or those who work on its behalf. so i've got a question. say if you're an experienced journalist, do you think in the last decade maybe 2 decades or something,

the change in the freedom of press the freedom of speech. he's or haven't you seen this change and what should be done? do thing to say the to combine or to, to protect the freedom of me. well, that's a different question altogether. and yes indeed, i mean in the aftermath of september 11th, the creation of our whole new security cabinet, or ministry in parliament, the homeland security, the restriction, the patriot act, there was something that was introduced into her in 2002, i believe it's called the patriot act that restricted american freedom. so i think we were to do sort of sort out what things, how things were and how things are today. we will find that many of those freedoms have been relegated to the, you know, background and so on. there is,

there are more restriction, definitely the russia, ukraine war also created more restriction in terms of voices. let's say, can the mainstream media, i mean, there are plenty of voices, but not in the mainstream media. they, us ministry, media that are they don't say anything that is really contrary to the american official position and so on. i mean, we can listen to cnn or m s and b c and other child. and they basically repeat what is being said by the government on the issue of russia. and maybe we can understand that. i mean, this is a country largely influenced by the military industrial complex by the bank. i will street by all these things and i don't believe that has anything to do

with my suspension on twitter, but certainly to ask the question and that can saw their freedom. we know the pres, regret a great deal in the last 20 years. said our records. thank you so much for joining us here. i see a pleasure talking to you, sir. so i'm, let's hope your account does get unfrozen. i can go back to doing wonderful work as a journalist. thanks again for your time. thank you, sir. well wraps up this news alpha. now we will be back at the top of the hour with more international news. so we hope you'll join us that ah, ah, ah
