that was 2022. so the french military leaving the boss to south hell region and ask for her off the 8 years. it's an antique. she had its operation and ultimately a failure resulting in the displacement and deaths. of thousands and we also recall it's relying cuz mass protest last year and the worst economic crisis instigating independence largely brought about by economic mismanagement and exacerbated by western sanctions against russia's energy. with a very will welcome to you from all of us here at r t international and must go straight to your top story right now. so the russian defense ministry has confirmed that 63 russian soldiers were killed in a recent rocket strike by the ukrainian military in the genetic republic. as we understand, they used american supplied high mas rockets. now we also understand the attack happened on new year's eve. as our correspondent ecos daniels now explains. scores

dozens over what is believed to be russian fresh recruits have perished in this artillery attack, launched by the ukrainian forces over the new year's night. apparently under it was targeting the quarters over these people just outside the city of bennett's. in the small town of my cave could basically it is believed that all those russian soldiers, they were stationed at what used to be a vacation. oh, college, it's building, so they were, this was their quarters and this is where at least for high mas rockets, according to the russian defense ministry. this is what they hit too high amazon projectiles were intercepted according to the russian defense ministry. now this confirmation has come talk to at the very bottom of monday's media, released by the defense ministry in which they have also listed all the targets that the russians that the russian army managed to hit lately. for instance,

they talked how several artillery strikes across the front managed to kill some 74 in the mercenaries, foreign mercenaries that have been doing the bidding of the ukrainian side that have been worrying on the side of key of the so called foreign legion. now also, but the incident in, at my cave ca, for example, it has caused an uproar among the experts among the military experts here in russia . they've been asking questions as to how come show many people were stationed at a feeble or soviet era building. why weren't there quarters located in the basements and the under ground, and there have been repeated calls for a serious investigation of this so far, the russian defense ministry has already promised to provide all help it can to the families of those soldiers who have been killed or, well wounded as a result of this high mars strike. meanwhile, russia has just have to the ukrainian drone near the as up sea coastal city of

better jones. that's coming from regional officials. this unverified footages believe to show the work of defense systems. as we understand, no damage or casualties were reported. now the crane army also showing 2 villages in russia's belgrade region, that's according to the local governor who says that several houses vehicles on a cemetery. it suffers some damage. now another ukrainian drone attack occurred in a brianne screeching earlier on monday and nobody was heard. however, one energy facilities we understand was damaged. while they know western russia is on the edge of region, a ukrainian drone was reportedly shot down by air defenses. all those developments coming after the russian defense ministry said it recently destroyed a number of ukrainian facilities involved in the production of u, a. b, unmanned aerial vehicles. the ministry defense i stated, it was done to prevent kids from carrying out a tax on russian territory. well, nate host chief has said that western countries need to be ready to provide long

term military support for key f against oldenburg earlier claim. the fastest way to peace is to provide ukraine with more weapons. in response to that, a u. s. democrats party, candidate for governor in kentucky, jeffrey young said that mr. stolen book should actually face 30 years behind bonds for helping to fuel the conflict. it may sound like a paradox, but military support for ukraine is the fastest way to peace. if any arctic that makes no sense at all, the fastest past piece at this point would be for the west united states, nato. to stop sending anything to ukraine, accept humanitarian aid for the civilians who have been displaced. not send any more weapons, any more money. every us president from 1945

till the present day has been an aggressor and a war. criminal nato is now under the direction of the united state. and mr. salton berg was chosen in order to support us imperialism show. he is a war criminal to, specifically in your grade. after months of violence, the m 23 militant group may withdraw from several settlements in the democratic republic of congo from 1st day. it is according to the east african community organization. i am 23 is allegedly supported by the d. r. c. neighbor, rwanda. it's something we want to refutes. the e u foreign policy chief, however, isn't convinced. however, by could garley denials, have a listen. the you firmly just want to stop supporting the m 23. unused all means to

press the m 23 to comply with the decisions taken by the e a. c. it's also firmly just all state's the region to prevent the provision of any support groups active in the d. c. that comes tensions escalate once again with ra wanda, accusing the d. c, a violating its s space for the 2nd time in 2 months. for a military plane, reportedly trespassed into wandering territory on wednesday. a kinshasa had earlier denied that the 1st incursion in november was a provocation. calling the incident an unfortunate mistake. if democrats, republic of congo, backed by the e g, u insists that rwanda is supporting the m 23 militia group on his territory and supplying it with weapons. and ammunition. those allegations are to repeat, have again been denied by kick. golly, according to you and report are due to m. 20 three's activities and increased fighting within the d asi, tens of thousands of people have been displaced in an attempt at deescalate

pensions during the autumn of east africa regional force deployed kenyan troops there. as peacekeepers, locals, some of whom have spoken to us on the promise of anonymity, say the atrocities virtually intensified. why do you seeking gal who have no security? the people are suffering a lot, the have no access to food. the rabble saluting everything in the fields. there was no kid not been in our village before, but sees the m 23 war starts. it is become a frequent problem. many people have disappeared. some have been shot that and others have been taken away to unknown locations. many people have died, both man and women and their bodies have been found in various places and wooden cool people are kidnapped. women raped and children killed in mass. is the situation that terrifies us because we're afraid the what these terrorists are doing and route sure could happen in the city of goma. all these young people, taken hostage, do not want to be ruled by am 23. we've asked our authorities to address the

situation. we fear the worst because terrorists, respect human rights. and it's shameful to see all these organizations that are supposed to protect human rights sitting on their hands in the face of such suffering, yet am bow, how a bendy 2022. so the end of an 8 year french military operation in the very, i wish we say uranium rich west african sa hell region. the so called operation barking, i left thousands of civilians dead and displaced under the premise of fighting islamist terrorists. authors cabella totally out. details on this have a list. hi does. it may try. the former colonial power in africa, france is fast using influence on the ground and in the continent. this waved if attempt to keep the power posture phrase president de manuel micron and i was in you africa strategy to be launched in 6 months. this is his government's response as france pulls out of the fire, read it. the strategy is big one. ambition,

but little on detail, france remains resolutely committed to the security of the continent, acton, and support. and that the request of all african partners is from us really winning . or is it playing out like the 2020 to cut our welcome final, the former colonizer claims. it remains committed to security in the region with a straight face. paris fed this as is until june, 3rd, and mission operation, bar con, came to an inglorious end. in the field of perception, berkin continues to occupy a very important presence of social networks. it is necessary to put a clear end to it in order to switch to another logic. but it will also be logical for anyone to consider operation bar con a failed mission, spending 8 years in this a hell. it barely lived up to his promise. there is no noticeable change in the conflict hot bed. that is this

a hell and f for france. jihadists are not only still in the region, but they seem to be gaining momentum. according to the united nations, civilians have been displaced in their millions and they have also been killed in their thousands. the deepening of the protection crisis negatively affected the already dire humanitarian situation. the number of internally displaced persons rose to 397000 in the center in north of the country. more than 1800000 people faced severe food and security, and 2000000 children under the age of 5 are affected by acute malnutrition. francis, if one is to invest in said history and culture with french speaking countries. but what correlation is there between uranium mines in northern new j phrase power plants and french troops on the ground. and formerly froze is a transactional colonial power. the transitional government demands present,

micron permanently abandoned his neo colonial, but on the loo stick and patronize imposture. to understand that no one loves molly more than mother else. in a monday letter to the united nations security council in august, molly, i choose from this a violations of its air space to collect intelligence for the benefit of terrorist groups in the sale, and dropped arms and ammunitions to them, and chaired, edit to french, was lamenting frances interference in his domestic affairs, the french president insisted french remain pan african language in the face of former french colonies like rwanda rejecting it for english. instead, france was being rejected as an ally and rather viewed of a hangover of colonial times. instead of being humble,

france blames russia and others, a number of powers who on to spread their influence in africa, are doing this to hurt. france, hurt its language so doubts, but above all, but su certain interests for more than 3 decades. from the scene of entrenched and rooted on the continent, self assured, and even some might see khaki in its arrogance by 2022 from the year of humble lessons for the former colonizer friends, diplomacy on the continent is being reviewed. and a different partner is being sought. only time will tell if this is a bad page, or if africa is really ready this time to bid fronts over. got a will if that velocity in johannesburg will are anti french sentiment also on the rise in neighboring burkina, faso countries president was overthrown in september and a coo over his alleged inability to deal with the islamist and searching for

they planning to do is organize our own. i mean, we don't have a possibility to plan and organize our own foresees to attend for the need of secretion of security. so we can just say that it was a reach for our a our government to let that those for see continue to be in our area for a cooper and some government id do a foresees or so in just in

our own government programs and to put a, c, c, c, that t chewed off. oh, lou. lou, nice. i agree and do that. so good to have your company for this program. from moscow, i started our focus not of sri lanka. my mass protest gripped the country in the past year. a government economic mismanagement was seen as the main reason for the anchor, and as our south asia correspond reports, the situation was exacerbated by western sanctions against russian energy. 2022 has been a hero, stronger for sri lanka, the country faced its worse. our economic crisis, since it got independence and 1948. the economic crisis soon spiraled into a political and humanitarian one. in april,

sri lanka defaulted on billions of dollars of external debt, leaving guide a nation with no food, nor fuel, and no medicines. at least half a 1000000 people fell into poverty and then not to forget the western sanctions on russia and 2022 that dragged the whole world into economy. chaos. and further bunch of countries like sri lanka, that was all ready struggling. do you think anxious will help? it will only push prices up. so let's start with what's possible. let us look at the sanctions that have been imposed and ask ourselves if it's necessary, the sanctions won't bring russia to it's nice, but they will bring the rest of the 3rd world. each niece was followed was daily parlor back out, wide spread, protest on the streets. lendy here was outside petrol stations and all of that led to the fall of the long standing roger buckshot government.

oh in july this is war tree longer look like government offices run or war. public broadcaster hijacked presidential dallas ransacked prime ministers, offers set ablaze, and president having to flood the country. unceremoniously. a little port are based in south asia. i have carla numerous pro us or what a decade, but nothing compares to what she, lunk a witness this year. what, how did things go so bad? she lung gaz. biggest industries out to resume and agriculture explored say why the corona water spend to make killed the tourism sector. a ban on chemical fertilizers

into duels by the then president goes, i be a roger. buck shaw damaged the agricultural sector. the import dependent country ran out of money as its reserves completely depleted in november 2019 our foreign exchange reserves were at $7500000000.00. however, today it is a challenge for the treasury to find $1000000.00. we must prepare ourselves to make some sacrifices in face the challenges of this period. i'll re bed good bye to 2022 . the q was have gone away, but not the been the supply is have somewhat priest on what the inflation remains. the new government was hoping to get a $3000000000.00 bill out package from the i. m f. my december. but to secure that and had to renegotiate loans with its for lend does tighten budgets, spendings and booths. revenues simply means more trouble for the island nation. of $22000000.00 people range and sharma

r t. i 2022 also saw the west press on with trying to sell green solutions to essentially the entire continent of africa. this years are un conference on climate change, sort of push african countries away from traditional energy sources in favor of our so called green friendly policies. and then the day there, despite the costs and consequences of that locally n j. i yoke, an executive head of an african energy law group says the west mission is actually hurting the continent with the producer from western countries, especially the e. u is clearly unfounded and unjust, and not. ready right thing to do with african country lecturing them about one thing by doing something on the other side. african countries know that our resources are critical for our roles or i'm sure lies ation for us having a just it transition for us to leave. all of them are people out of poverty,

but also for us to be energy poverty. we realize that right now, at this time, we have no choice but to fail our right to use our resources. that includes our natural gas and coal. in some cases, to drive up either shall i station, we have 600000000 people in the continent without electricity, 900000000. without access to most of them. we cannot leave them behind our resources by g, r, of lifting people out of poverty. and sure enough industrialization and creating jobs, especially for young people and women in africa. so we have no choice but to defend vigorously our right to use our resources. ah, south korea's president has set the plans are underway to conduct military drills

involving nuclear forces with the united states. this is basically a matter of writing tensions in that region. what we call extended deterrence was also the us telling us not to worry because it will take care of everything. but now it's difficult to convince our people with just that the u. s. government also understands that to some degree, the nuclear weapons belong to the united states. but planning information sharing exercises and training should be jointly conducted by south korea in the united states. with announcement i came off, the north korea said it plant a vastly increase as nuclear arsenal this year. of sean gang has been test firing missiles as it's geopolitical rival to the south has been ramping up military drills together with america in recent months. the south is walnut, if north korea conducts an actual nuclear attack, it would retaliate and destroy the pyongyang, government, and north korea has attested that the purpose of his missile program is to protect itself against threats from the u. s. and south korea. the prevailing situation

calls for making redoubled efforts to overwhelmingly beef up the military muscle to thoroughly guarantee the sovereignty security and fundamental interests of the republic in response to the worrying military moves by the us and other hostile forces. precisely targeting the democratic people's republic of korea, we heard from our original jr, plato expo, the gao who says that her, the military exercise is, will only escalate the already high tensions on the korean peninsula. and just like united states and our okay, also need to really think about why d p r j had to develop its nuclear weapons. i think dpr k concluded that it needed the nuclear weapon to prevent the color revolution that the united states has been doing to many other countries to prevent a kind of military assault on dpr, kate aimed at over throughly the dpr k government. and therefore,

i think it really takes the 2 to tango, the united states, in particular m t p r k need to negotiate with each other resort to diplomacy, to solve the nuclear weapon program on the korean peninsula. but now if the united states wants to join the military exercise with the r o k forces using nuclear weapons, in addition to strategic bombers, this is not helpful in our chewing d notarization on the korean peninsula. it will make nuclear arise, asia and nuclear weapons. and a potential conflict on the korean peninsula, more likely, using nuclear weapons and strategic farmers to join ada exercise involving a can on the korean peninsula should be condemned. because otherwise, it may actually contribute to completely the stabilizing the situation

on the korean peninsula. this is the last day that countries in that part of the world want to see. i just about wrapping up this, i was programmed with that story there on north korea. thank you so much for joining us there for the program announcing international about a 1825 pm, monday evening. the 2nd day of the new year. thanks to your company of the seniors . ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
