to our website for one of our is latest documentaries. hey, the preview lydia upstate orthodox churches are being shelled from cramming positions. rockets was fired from ukraine and drone and groups killed. mm ah, november 22nd 2022 outraged orthodox christians confronted ukrainian security service officers, docking entrances and exits the keys oldest monastery. they were looking for alleged russian spies among the monks.

shower bridge were more on march 3 2015. i was abducted by as the officers from the monastery and it was kept here in the department and summer to 7. your gifts customers, they tortured me for the 1st 3 days and really ended nationalist battalions. use metal bars and fittings and they began to be the orthodox, the clergy and one of the priest died from beatings. shanika alternate to roll from lawyer for his gun shell said, but just think of a father. nikolai died from the beatings he received during defending the church in louis karima was a she they could. armand a subordinate in 2008 tens of thousands gathered in cave. the more to welcome the russian orthodox church hierarchy. the people challenging here don't don't,

of course it in a few short. he is those who welcome to moscow pantry all can keep, will be officially regarded as enemies of the ukrainian state. who while he don't count towards the full documentary on ukraine's suppression of the russian orthodox church and other breaking news from around the world. now to africa, where in the european town of live, bella christians are enjoying the local holiday festival for the 1st time in 4 years and sensitivities with us. protons pause, juicy cove at 19 regulations when deadly clashes between t grey rebels on the government prevented the festival from happening. ethiopia is the only african country that celebrates orthodox christmas of 60 percent of people are parishioners. of this church is what locals had to say about the festivities. like bella is the 2nd jerusalem. this is not my 1st time. i've come here for 2 or 3

times to visit. this is the 2nd jerusalem for me. the army on suspend tastic. i also used to bring a group of my friends to visit and i can tell you how happy i have been to this place before it was like people living in the darkness know things that massive change. words can explain how hey pam. meanwhile, hundreds of orthodox pilgrims have flocks to bethlehem. the city where christians believe jesus christ was born ortiz. maria for notion of follows in mother mary's footsteps. retracing her journey from nazareth reports on today's political obstacles, some pilgrims face the city of nazareth, so they says, where christians believe the annunciation happened. an angel appeared to mother mary. some believe on the side of the church behind me, telling her she would give birth to the son of god. and it's from here that her journey to bethlehem started where jesus is believed to be born. what would that 150 kilometer journey look like today?

what would the pregnant woman face on her way? we decided to take this tree and see with our own eyes. nazareth is the largest arab see teenager, l. arab israelis, many of whom identify themselves as palestinian citizens of israel. form more than 20 percent of the country's population, but it would only be possible for mother married to be here if she had an israeli id. or if not, she would have to go through a number of difficult procedures with israeli authorities to apply for permission to enter and stay. and she could still have been rejected. no one can know for sure which ruined mother married to 2000 years ago, but that would more likely be the shortest one which runs through what is today the occupied west bank. we are entering the border right now and we'll have to go through the checkpoint. hi, how are you? yeah, good. we got to be. it was rather easy for me. i'm a foreigner and

a journalist, but it was mainly because we were traveling from israel to the west bank to go the other way around is an almost impossible task for the west bank 3000000 arab population. regarding up shortly after the check point, we are in the town of uni now in the northern part of the west bank. it has been in the news, the last recently, almost daily military raised by the israel. the army here have often turned violent with casualties among civilian population. the officials from the palestinian authority say more than 50 children were killed since the beginning of these here alone. we meet a local watch outside janine near the little greek orthodox church, thought to be the 4th oldest church in the world. it is believed that mother mary made a short stop here on her way to bethlehem. i was leaves in the west bank just for him in his drive from nazareth, but he cannot go there. well enough that all goes on as i thought the jewels at m. i need a special ferment from the occupation army from the start authorities. and in order

to do that, that set of criteria is that number apply to many palestinians. so it is a very limited access of the seniors to vote. and as it ought to utilize him, even if you get the permit for the fall of humiliation full of obstacles and something he's a junior at all, it makes me sad because after all this is a holy land. we are angry towards the international community. in fact, we're seeing the international focusing on what everything that is happening all around the world. every single law that has been broken by the states, yet it is supported by the west. it is not even blamed by the way i stand. everybody is asking palestinians that people who are under occupation under opposition to be more than it and not to, i mean, it's a world full of focus. we continue our journey to the south without. i was as a resident of the west bank, he's blocked from entering jerusalem, where outreach takes us. some of the roads would also be restricted opera habitate

for him as a philistine in soon we approach one of the settlements. a wad mentioned around nobliss, the center of d and samaria. the biblical name of the west bank that israel uses homes for around half a 1000000 israelis. we are now inside the settlements known as the car, which has a reputation of being home to the most extreme israeli settlers. they are at the full frontal of the sutler movement, so called price tag policy, which calls for violent attacks against palestinians is a price to pay in retaliation for actions. again, settlements within the west bank navigator. kept telling me go straight, but it looks like we are the data and now we have to go back. the west bank barrier was billed by israel in the early 2 thousands when we have

left the wall and all the checkpoints behind us. we reach bethlehem. the atmosphere is in contrast to everything we so on the way, but there warrants and as a person from bethlehem, why the green car has a green passport as a green idea. i can visit gerald whenever. so i think that's my 1st time and it's so different the news. katrina is such a hot chicken and it's such a big mess. but it's it's beautiful. everyone was so friendly and let me out and fast, but didn't totally get into the christmas spirit, but it's now getting, getting to me it is a special place and i thought with a great chance to be here once in a maybe in a lifetime, i don't know where i'm coming all year. so sounds great us morning. so, so happy. christmas here is this exciting,

i think take of attention. so you might not know what i can tell you actually. and i think you might have a completely different perspective if you're actually experience the science behind christmas holiday of love and family. yeah. well i think everyone knows the budget for the senior situation that everyone is facing. so yeah, that should take action to this terrible people celebrate separated from that family policy and especially we are finally in bethlehem. a mother mary would make it here today. she would find the city richly decorated for christmas and full of celebrating crowds for the 1st time in 3 years. the town believe to be the birthplace of jesus accepts christians from all over the globe. but mother, mary would not see here today, leaving him the nearby guys a trip or those living in the northern part of the occupied west bank. those who are not permitted to enter bethlehem and left celebrating with tears in their eyes

. nationality from bethlehem and merry christmas is wendy already have banned the dozens of christine's who live in garza from entering bethlehem to celebrate christmas every year. israel increases the number of permits it denies fighting security concerns as a small town among people who want to celebrate the holiday with their families. we used to apply for permits and send our documents, including our photos and identity papers, through the church, and deliver them to a civil affairs department. it confirms that our publications are under examination by the israeli authorities, and we will be informed whether our applications are accepted by israel or not. i sent my application about 3 weeks ago and 2 weeks later i found out that my request was rejected every year. i hope that my application will be accepted. my wife and children have received permits, but i have not. my kids always tell me. we hope you'll go with us to bethlehem to celebrate. but every year, at least $200.00 christians get

a rejection from its rhonda authorities to visit the holy sides in jerusalem. bethlehem the occupational heritage did not see palestinians as humans, therefore was christians and muslims of forbidden from visiting the holy sites. it's a denial of the basic human rights. israel only realized on being a strong part against a weak one regarding the palestine in territories. it doesn't comply with any united nations mechanisms, and it feels that it is above the law and immune from accountability. turkey has reported around 17000000 tons of grain have been exported via the ukraine grain deal corridors since it came into force in july. the initiative is supposed to soften the global food crisis, especially for the countries was affected. but it appears that hasn't been the case corroborated. toddler wins is the story already facing struggles with mazda, se flayson and stroud and resurgence of jihad is grooves. africa is now in the grip of a major food crisis. the world food programs 2022 global report on food crisis. estimate

the close to a 193000000 people on the continent face achievement, food and security, and that one in 5 go to bed hungry where scaling up our operations in countries lay . so malia kenya nigeria and became a foster as well as many others to try and help as many people as we can. but the number of people going without food and water is staggering. factors behind the food crisis, very, from conflicts leading to miles displacement to climate shocks, including drugs and floods. acute food insecurity has, by dramatically at the same time, rich western nations including the united states and it's in you, partner countries have turned their attention and deep wallets to ukraine at africa's expense. green shipments were also affected and able to depart the black sea due to this conflict, but things to the mediation by turkey and the united nations. a deal was struck which in russia and ukraine,

allowing for shipments to resume. the question has not been what is good for one side or the other. the focus has been on north america is most for the people of all worlds. and let there be no doubt. this is an agreement for the wolves. but as it turns out, most of the 14000000 tons of gray was not delivered to the african continent. 11, just 11 out of the $615.00 ships that left ukrainian ports between august and december would dock in sub saharan africa partition if you're hearing over was almost all of the green exported from ukraine is being sent to the e. u. instead of to the world's poorest developing countries, many european countries are now acting as colonizers once again, just like they did for decades and centuries in the past. the simply deceives the developing countries once more and are still deceiving them at this very moment. western power found played the accusations,

claiming that 47 percent of ukraine's grain was central asia, with 36 percent and to europe and 17 percent to africa. and they also promised to buy more of ukraine's grain to reduce prices. since the inception of this, only there is elaine's more than 15000000 tons of ukrainian agriculture, goods, grain, oil, seeds, and related products have been exported by road rail and through black sea and the new pores. in addition, since august, the black sea green initiative has helped relaunch grain shipments from ukraine's black seaports, thereby further reducing foot price is globally. but what is the solidarity of these lanes end up shipping to you countries? why if africa not part of the soul, quote, fully verity. as a result, moscow ended up with grain and fertilizers. it couldn't even sell due to you, an american sanction to luxor, or as far as access to russian products is concerned. the african union members are

facing swift related sanction problems. as most of our banks have ties with european bunks, usual payment procedures are no longer available to them. babs in an effort to college, so the impact of e u. sanctions i having on rising food prices, the block, exempted russian weed and fertilizers from restrictions. it even lifted sanctions on chemical and fertilizer companies under the guys that africa needs though. but must go, went further and donated food to vulnerable african countries, as well as fertilizers, saying, put in, in my phone call with vladimir putin. he sat let sent these grange countries such as to booty, somalia, and so done for free. and we agreed to mediate the situation and the world, today's ruler bird. unfortunately, africa has been starving and will continue to starve. we as a company, have decided to supply fertilizer to africa for free, as we are a part of a global supply chain which needs to produce food. when president vladimir poets,

it said that russia had made the donation to african states to support its efforts . the wes responded in its usual manner. african societies continue to suffer from russia's weapon ization, of food and fertilizers, exports. many of us face, including south africa, have voiced the concern that humanitarian aid is being politicized with the threat of food being used to pressure countries to support ukraine in the conflict. global is that for oddity in johannesburg, to france now where the famous yellow vests protest movement is back on the streets of paris, crying foul over the high costs of living. oh,

countries broke out between local police and protest his own son today with tear gas used to disperse crowds. the activists are rallying against the government's newly proposed retirement plan. they get a vest so, so say they planning more protests in other french cities and towns later this month. i was staying in france. the ministry of ecology has become the latest target of eco activists. the group spray painted its facade with orange to denounce the french governments, perceived inaction on climate change. though the vandalism was minus some other actions have reportedly put people's lives at risk. all to contribute to racial monson tells us no therapy in union has long wanted to turbocharged its green energy agenda. 2022 was a year. they realized that their tank was on empty because well, they sanctioned their own gas supply from russia. so after years of banging on about the fantasy of fueling the european industrial economy by praying for solar

powered, sunny days and sufficient when to turn landscape destroying windmills. europe realize this year that that plan is far from ready for prime time and they were desperate. so the blocks industrial engine, germany started firing back up coal plants, france scramble to blow the rust off of its decommissioned nuclear power plants, both casualties of the blocks green energy obsession, newly appointed prime minister of britain. re she soon arc preached to the climate change faithful ahead of the to cop 27 climate summit. he said he was going to turn the u k, into a green energy superpower. but apparently he didn't get the memo that britain was on the verge of opening its 1st coal mine in decades. or that coal was so badly needed in the you, as people faced exploding energy costs due to the use own anti russian sanctions. that citizens and poland were trying to dig around in their own gardens,

in the hope of striking pool, which is illegal by the way. so desperate times mean desperate measures. the european union simply reclassified gas and nuclear energy as green power. tossing environmental activists overboard to face the icy waters of pragmatic reality. elsewhere in australia, leaps, documents blew the lid off the scam of so called clean coal, suggesting that it was little more than a ruse to justify selling it at a higher price, which the customer can then ostensibly recoup by claiming lower carbon taxes for burning it face with frustration and disappointment, cultured and intellectually sophisticated environmental activists of the lead stay generation or last generation, took matters into their own hands by running around europe and physically attacking priceless works of art, which obviously weren't just exposed in such

a way that any toddler with a marker who just scribble all over them. during the call, 27 summit in egypt, these activists glued their own hands to john constables. the hey wayne. in london's national gallery. then they tossed mashed potatoes at french impressionists, plugged monet's, lay mel on display in germany's potsdam barbara rainy museum. when caught, they were told to crouch, with their hands pressed against the wall below the masterpiece. now in both cases, perhaps they should have just been left there with their hands stuck and made a permanent part of the exhibit that would have been fund. i'm satisfied with the impact of their efforts on actual environmental policy. they then took to super glueing themselves to the tarmac at munich airport. now this town trim meant that airplanes trying to land had to blow through even more earth killing fuel. as they were forced to circle around above while trying to figure out where to land until

they could ultimately be routed. meanwhile, down below, police were to literally dig up the road. in order to remove the activists from the pavement. there was also just stock oil movement that took center stage this year with a message for government to stock. all new exploration development and production of british fossil fuels. as british citizens grappled with, skyrocketing energy prices. these economic survives, we're defining a quote, livable future, as one with no fossil fuel gas, scott livable future doesn't include being able to afford a roof over your head or heating or reasonably price food or anything else. the factors in the availability depended cost of energy. ha, ah, nor to such a livable future apparently include the ability to get to work to earn

a living as politicians took as she with the protesters, disruption. we recognize the right in the united kingdom under our democracy for peaceful protest. however, we are vehemently against protest that include wilful vandalism. the disruption of individuals attempting to earn a lawful living. the blocking of roads that impedes parents from taking their children to hospital for life saving appointments and the utterly selfish act of depriving a son attending his own father's funeral by stopping the flow of traffic on the nation's highways with the har realities of the european energy crisis coming up against opponents, like these mother, earth could be waiting an awfully long time for some truly capable white knights to come to her rescue. breaking news now from russia's le ganske were public, were a massive explosion. his wilks and major gas pipeline in the town of latina, the blast has reportedly left to some 11000 people without phil is no word yet on

what could have caused the incident where we're bringing more. as soon as we get off all the latest updates, don't get check our website r t dot com and we'll be back at the top of the out with blue. ah, by the middle of the 19th century, practically the whole of india had been under the rule of the british empire, the colonial authorities and imposed that heavy death bringing the people into poverty. and we're exporting natural resources. and moreover, these authorities absolutely had no consideration for the traditions of the local population, treating them like 2nd class citizens. the british were showing signs of disrespect

even to those who corroborated with them. the fact of ignoring the real just beliefs of the hindus led to the mutiny embassy boys, mercenary soldiers serving under the british crown. rebellion began on the 10th of may 1857 in the garrison town of may road north of india in the form of a mutiny. the rebels quickly took over daily. the heroic resistance of the indian people lasted for one and a half years. however, the forces were not equal. the colonial authorities dealt with the rebels cruelly, the enslaves, the boys were tied to the mouth of the cannon and were shot right through their bodies for the amusement of the public. this type of execution was called the devil's with the obliteration of the mutiny resulted in the death of 800000 inhabitants of india. however, the british empire never broke the free spirit of the indians and their will for resistance

with ah mm. i mention or transfer. welcome back to going underground tens of millions face death this winter because they don't have enough to eat. nato nation media blames russia for making the year on yest, av ation. in the global south. worse, while massive corporations and western oligarchs promote the use of money making technology to solve the most basic problems facing humanity. interconnected with climate change, i'll guess today is a world renowned environmentalist attack in nato nations. the new yorker.
