thanks for joining us for the weekly here on our team on is peter scott to bring you some of the top stories from the weeks just gone. at least 68 people are confirmed dead in a plane crash near airports in cat man. do we heard from one russian citizen who works as an aviation called near the scene? who says that the incidence was caused by shop loss of speed limit hardly. so we were at an old airport near the napoleon club parking lot. at one point we saw the plane landing and it was already very low at the time. my colleague and i realized something was wrong. then it dropped sharply by about 20 meters in the plain disappeared over the horizon. there was an explosion on fire and that was it. typical loss of speed and corkscrew, this unverified footage appears to show the moments before and just after the playing cross. the plane was reportedly trying to land before tommy thing to the ground in a poly government has declared jenny the 16th day of morning and as all the

inspections of all domestic aircraft ortiz, windows, java has more. a t r 72 of the lines that was on route from the capital city or the new farm got mondo to bull crap. and that stretched takes about 30 minutes and 20 minutes into the peak or from god mom to the crash was reported. the local media in the ball and i was seeing that there's a possibility of the pilot in order to avoid a crashing into the busy market area. the walk in the plane towards the sect reward, and that's where the crash was reported on 11 am local time when the balance of the statute of what this was only about one and a half kilometer was from the airport, where the plane was supposed to land now, as for the civilization authorities of the ball, there was 15 foreign nationals and 4 crew members. these foreign nationals included, 5 indians for russians to cotton and some other nationalities as well.

now as far as the prime minister of my father's concerned push become the hall, he held an emergency meeting with his cabinet and on one of doing the situation very, very closely near police army as well as police and also some local, really trying to help in in the rescue operations there, at this stage, there are different reports on how many dead board these have been pulled out a. but at this stage it would be very difficult to see if anyone has to live or not . of course, the chances of that a very bleak, very, very unlikely. what happened to clean up the details are still very catchy at this point. but of course, keep following all the updates and we keep yours updated on that. earlier we spoke to an international aircraft, accidents investigator for hardy ben masoud about the possible cause that led to the accident, as well as the condition of the false ation fleets. this,

the doctor says specifically was about 15 and a half years or so. not really. if i were to say the issue with newborn vh, and i've been there for a while. if you look at numbers at the last, about 8 me, 8 crashes 166 people as bad as the previous 12 years. so that's a big number. 72. it had had some issue with in the bass related to icing conditions the icing, which is the challenge in 8070 degree exact, specifically 500 and below the one that be the last day. it relates to unwanted maneuvering up in a specially a slow speed, low cloud on green valley. when these kind of issues,

boys will play a role and it grows to be even more challenging, especially when you have infrastructure, which is like the left one big on the board gash domains as well. and now to the war in ukraine, the russian defense ministry is confirmed. loan strikes on key of military command senses unrelated infrastructure on saturday. so those were a lot else. lisa looked up on january 14th. the missile attack was carried out on ukrainian military commands and control systems of related energy facilities. all targets were hit on the donuts front. russian troops have advanced to the northern outskirts of the city of our team, of sky, and the sole railway station. ah, well 1st of all in regards to our tel mosque, which is no one in the west as a backward because the ukraine had renamed that city back in 2016. well,

that the city of our arch or mosque is of paramount strategic importance, both to russia and to ukraine. it's only 10 kilometers away from the recently liberated city of salazar and the a win on the barrack battle grounds of their will allow the russian armed forces to advance further its wards. the cities of fast law down scans are crumb a source, kanza, that se yet another major stronghold of the ukraine and military and the currently an occupied territory of the de nest people's republic. now russian defense ministry statements comes right after ukrainian officials and the local media reported that there were at least $100.00 raucous, fired against the secretary. on saturday, several of the countries regents declared the emergency on that day and also emergency electricity blackouts were declared in key f, as well as at 7 other regions. now footage in social media in ukraine also showed

a partially destroyed residential building in a net profit troughs. ukraine and officials 1st blamed a rush for the direct destruction of the building, but sets up advisor to ukrainian president. alexey are established confirmed that it was not a direct hit, but the work of ukrainian air defense systems for you, but he was below no pull in the police. the missile was shut down, but it fell on the building. it exploded when it fell down. now, authorities in ukraine were equipped to disagree with the speaker that you just heard. and the mayor of never petrov cast are already called for are, is storage to be investigated by the countries security services. meanwhile, russian military officials have as stated, sime and again, that's a civilians are never, that's argus of russian a strikes. also, they have stated numerous times that ukrainian air defense. it has been very ineffective given examples how their missile defense rockets have already ended up

in civilians, homes up, well not only in ukraine, but even in the neighboring countries when one of the ukrainian rockets killed 2 farmers in poland. now also earlier on sunday, russian defense ministry said that ukraine security services are setting up explosives in a grain storage facility in hark of region. now of this provocation, as they called it, was a plant in order to accuse russia of failing the so called grain deal according to defense, ben is free. the provocation is meant to increase pressure on public opinion in western countries in order to achieve new large scale arm supplies, the ukraine. this would not have been the 1st time ukraine would states such provocations in order to find support in the west. last year. our world headlines were full of stories about and youth from boucher ukrainian city. the russian forces return to keeps controlled you 2 successful negotiations that sir took place

of the time. the western media were presented with corpses of civilians on the streets of the city. and that's just 3 days after the russian army left, the linkage between the dead and the russian military was established immediately without any fact base data to back it up for export. russia has vehemently deny delegation. so in general, the latest ukrainian provocation falls in would the key of attempts to boost military support from the was due to its own failures on the battle ground. and after the dawn bus phone lines were russian forces achieved a breakthrough. this week, the private military group, wagner had taken control of the town of fella dark. you can see footage from the ground after russia assumed control. after the fall of the town, the ukrainian soldiers are set to move westward. the troops seized various anti tank weaponry and reportedly western supplied military equipment. this exclusive

footage shows the volunteer groups head on members in spacing an underground mind that was previously used by key of troops to stole weapons. and as it was already said, florida is a c, strategically important location, getting control over its paved the way for russian forces to put pressure on ukrainian forces in the major city of our chalmers, which is also known as bach. much of vital transportation hope. but with a network of roads and railways used to supply rates, the head of the republic said that after saddam rushes, military may be able to move towards save us going to the key town. the towns of common source can stop young would then be the next targets for the russian. army. ok if the fighting of forethought a dog is ongoing, amid reports of both sides have suffered losses in the battle for that town. while death, relatives of ukrainian fighters who are said to be missing or cap timothy, have taken to the streets of the more local media labeled a march of widows. women were seen holding photos of their husbands calling on the

government to help bring them home. the process follow multiple eye witness accounts, suggesting that he is reluctant to retrieve some of his wounded unseen service men from the battlefield gives biggest military becca, united states appeared to downplay the significance of the latest developments on the front line. according to a pentagon spokesperson, the ukrainian army latest defeats would not have any impact on the conflict. so let's take a lesson, we don't know how it's going to go, so i'm not going to predict failure or success here. but even if they're both back mood and until it are fall to the russians, it's not going to make a i'm not going to have a strategic impact on the war itself. and it certainly isn't gonna stop ukrainians or, or slow them down in terms of their and their efforts to regain their territory was put in this way of so dar hadn't fallen. but in the ukrainian defences that they had been building up for over 8 years from 2014 to 2022 would still be

intact. and that would complicate extraordinarily, any russian offensive that has been planned when the remaining of 12550000 mobilized troops, finally appear on the battlefield. it was to follow solid r o, the russians have put at risk of the ukrainian positions in bar moot. um the, the fact is that the defense of this area is going to become untenable and or rather than risk and even larger cauldron. the ukraine's will have no choice but to withdraw and see, create a new defensive built further to the west. the capture of sola dar, the eventual capture of bark mood. the piercing of the ukrainian defences is an essential precondition for any follow on russian offensive operation. so this is a, this is a battle of tremendous significance and tremendous consequence for both sides.

in of the news, china, the new foreign minister is wrapping up his 5 nation trip across africa that his country was been in during an official meeting with the countries president. he stressed the importance of chinese african cooperation, identify more areas to strengthen bilateral ties like gina, bob, what my proposal is that we work together to promote synergy between beneath strategic development plan and the belt in road initiative. and the achievement of the forum on china, africa, co operation. so in order to identify more fields of action and growth rates for our cooperation. well, i am thinking of infrastructure, agriculture, human resources, training, manufacturing, and peace and security. president had to sell on a venue has met with visiting chinese foreign minister, tingling called it, and i said that the new chinese foreign ministers visit king size with the fifty's investors of the assumption of diplomatic relations between the 2 countries. many

look forward to learning from china is experienced, deepening, and expanding practical corporation and accelerating national development and revitalization. you know, the other hand, can they, president seeking things, greetings to president iran and thanked, been in for weights, understanding and support on issues involving china's interests and major concerns . things that, that china is willing to strengthen, experiencing changes in the beginning and government support beginning in exploring a development path, se to form national conditions. 2 sides also signed cooperation documents such as people to people and cultural exchanges. they've also agreed to conduct the outcomes of the 8th ministerial conference of the foreign of china corporation and to encourage more powerful and reputable chinese companies to invest in building 30 this week. the chinese foreign minister also visited an gola, noting the both states have always enjoyed solidarity on trust, as well as growing momentum in the mutual corporation with chinese companies making

the significant contributions to infrastructure upgrades in an gola. his african trip also included a stop in ethiopia, where he held a meeting with his ethiopian counterparts. and they discussed bilateral corporation on the joints experienced in governance one year with china's new foreign minister also met with the head of the african union commission and an apparent swipe ots u. s. involvement in the continents. he stated that no willed power should force african countries to take sides in masses of geopolitics. instead, senates, africa shall be a place for promoting economic development. siegel yes, what african needs is solidarity and cooperation, not confrontation. no country, no people have the right to force african countries in their people to take sides. africa should be a platform for international cooperation, not an arena if a competition between major countries. africa refuses to be seen as an arena for competing implants. were open to cooperation and partnerships with everyone as long

as their respect our principles, our priorities now interests. the partnership we have with china is built on this principles. walk operation between china and african nations is on the rise. the u . s. says that such actions are actually destabilizing the confidence, the u. s. defense equity made those claims last month at the summit of african leaders in washington were witnessing the purity, expand its footprint, ah, in the, on, on a continent on a daily basis. and that creates the problems that will be eventually destabilizing if they're not already. or we see russia continuing to paddle cheap weapons, employing mercenaries across the continent. and so the combination of those activities by those 2 countries i think, are that bears watching. and certainly, i think their influence, again, can be the stabilizer. chinese affairs experts under long says the chinese approach

to africa is more holistic than that of western powers. taught us engagement with africa. it's very different from the west and looks at the relationship in a holistic way. the emphasis always been on building infrastructure and it was capacity building for development. it would help the these countries to develop and also of course it would force. ready closer ties between china and africa, their so called democracy as defined by the united states is only a facade channel to excerpt, americans in france to impose the americans more go on on other countries. regardless of the m, the stages of development, the internal political situation, the geography and so on, so forth. the african countries and other developing countries. they are more in debt to western commercial lenders, multiple times more than china. thomas become much more

a price and allow, in some sort of that relief, but also taking into account all the stakeholders interest. but overall, these loans are here, as i say, towards building infrastructure within the country and connecting these countries to other neighboring countries. it would bring a lot of economic progress over 60 years since gaining independence, the democratic republic of the congo continues to feel the effects of grueling decades long conflicts. the southern mineral rich region of the country was torn between former colonial powers on insurgents. ortiz cromwell, a tablet, explains how the current government is still pick up the pieces left by western powers. after 6 long decades of brutal conflicts, countless lives lost and displaced the war in the d. r. c's, 1000, mineral rich, province of cat anger is finally over. it's been

a harrowing endeavor for his people and the region itself. meghan 1961 time, came for congress to gain her independence. the imperialists and colonizers led by belgium, the united kingdom, and the united states, shows conflict and separatism in cassandra. but why did they do it? they all parroted ally and by western colonizers, an imperialist that it was to hold the spread of communism in the world for in the r c that also men control of leisure resources at bargain basement prices. and that's how the war in the region began, but for the democratically elected leader of the congo. patrice lamar, the future of the country, was only as one united nation. i informed the public in the congo and throughout the world. decay tango will not be separated from the congo, the province of catania as an integral parts of an independent congo from the point of view of internal public law and of international law. just as the province of antwerp in belgium will not become independent. neither will the province of

catania become independent in the congo. our great rich country will remain united in order to play a primary role in the association of free nations of africa. but la moda was beaten to the top and deposed by army general known as love, which was the 2nd. lemme a democratically elected leader of the congo, was handed to his enemies. he was beaten brutally, and tortured by his enemies. it was later revealed that belgium and the cia engineered and planned for his downfall, and that lama was handed over to his enemies to be tortured and for his body to be doused with s it to further hasting decomposition. this is according to the u. s. is own national security council subgroup, western pressure made sure that the united nations security council was hum,

strung, and could not get a consensus on the burning conflict and west then message series filled to the congress, the united nations secretary general at the time. doug hammock called was hard to change this west the narrative and called for peace. he even called for all foreign forces to leave the congo, but said he was to lose his life in a mysterious plane crash. in 1961 details of which i had to be known, largely because the united kingdom and the united states archives both refused to cooperate with the mission. and the investigation has since gone no way. the continued non disclosure of potentially relevant new information in the intelligence security and defense archives of member states constitutes the biggest barrier to understanding the full truth of the event. the situation in the congo only kept on getting worse, and as public opinion grew against western powers,

it was up to john f. kennedy to do something about it. he decided to flip and not support the leader in katana easier said than that something that took nearly a year to ended on the congo crisis raised on and the country shattered and devastated by it's still an able to recover largely because of western greed and an unwillingness to accept that congress has the right to decide its own destiny and terrible it's out of warranty. and john, is me. well, in staying in africa, at least 5 people have reportedly been killed in a bomb explosion at the sunday church service in the democratic republic. of congo, i must warn you may find the following images disturbing a partisan church. it was a time in the city of casting d in the eastern region of the day near the border with you, gander and miss most persons that the attack was likely carried out by the allied

democratic forces. uganda and a militant group with allegiance to ices has been accused of killing hundreds of civilians over the past 2 years. both the adf hasn't yet claimed responsibility for the attack. the. d the deeply, sorry those the words from the archbishop of canterbury, just in welby, the church of england is now apologize for the african for its role in the african slave trade centuries later in response, the church of england has aimed to distribute 100000000 pounds of the next 9 years to adjust the historic links to slavery. i am deeply sorry for the links with trans atlantic chapel slavery, that the church commissioners have identified the subordinate trade to men, women and children, created god's image and stripped them of their dignity and freedom. the fact that some within the church actively supported and profited from it is a source of shame. latest interim reports release to reveals the historic type of

the church commission is involvement in the trans atlantic slave trade and endowments with connections to queen and bounty her from the stablished in 17. 04 was found to be directly tied to the trade. we heard from some local people who shed the opinion on the compensation initiative. i've seen the amount of money they're talking about that's not seen. and what criteria they're going to use to decide that decided benefits in design doesn't it's, it's a complicated, it's a pandora box that they have opened. ah, which is unfortunate, because now people were with, might have accepted what it happened. are going to work up a set, asking a lot of questions and i don't think the church of england is the capacity to come up with all the answers and why they've done well. just wanted the able to bring back the lives of the people that was lost or what they would have done for the

people at that time would want to be able to do it. for me, thinking of issues that i years forgotten, some families that lost their bread winner. some commuters did not or did will because all the people that were capable in that community, we took him away. so i think that use of compensation. mr. be discussed in terms of developing those communities. we spoke with south african political unless jackie shandy, who thinks this latest gesture from the church doesn't go far enough. what we're seeing here is the constant involvement of the church as part of the oppressive machine. it raises a lot of questions, you know about the, the moral authority and the conception of goal and goodness and justice, which we are conveniently forgotten neglected over lieu in dealing with

africans. the judge cannot just understand or patronize african africans food to donations. we need to talk about comprehensive reparations. there must be some quantification. surely can be done for the science is that the technology is there for the internet is there. but it can be quantify as to how much africa is entitled to in the form of 20 sheets for hundreds of yes o being grounded by western europe and not the rate of being an agent of being looted by a western europe in north america. certainly not in the form of the nation. well that's her up for now. what have you doing this weekend?

i hope you having a good one. my name is peter scott and we back in around 30 minutes time. do stay tuned for more grade programs here or not. ah ah ah . so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race who is on offense bearing dramatic development only

personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very difficult time time to sit down and talk with i said is this with the crass and the so sorry our community like oh i i dont then for me to move in for my thats you know from 5 diesel superscript if you very much. yeah. get, get you physically more visorio visits to long with

nicole. yep. and who is it best boot in the perfect best with best they can. um, we just have to be connected to she. so she may not just wanted to abandon that big shipment cooper and that this one actually is in a coma. i've talked to them that was one question on this one. 0 no problem. you're behind this. it's all legit funny with with we all came out to get there. we were all supposed to go home together. i didn't happen with it all went to the

movies. and we get to the corner of 15th and ridgewood and there's another car just sitting there. when you achieve it and you go on to do your 1st mission, that's what he is in the for and then a back with pistols. and we all feeling like a drilling, searching through our bodies. but nobody's really talking because we know what you're going to do for hear a cars tire street to hear the car ready next to last all the way down. it is scared what you rates as a.
