[000:00:00;00] a need to told stories russian troops edge closer to taking me strategic city of all too long. give me don't. yeah. it's good public offices in control of the nearby town of florida. following months of intense fighting with dozens of passengers die in a plane crash near the poles international airport, the countries was to add dissolved in 3 decades with no country. no people have the right to force african countries and let people to take. so i think say the africa shouldn't become an arena for competition between well pro is china's new foreign minister, wraps up a fine nation trip across the continent. and the parents of young phoebe and

football players are attacked by a group of people with knives in both and in a legit hate crime. we hear from one of the athletes father to to them about 10 to 15 men with covered faces, entered the hotel pepper, sprayed the parents, and stopped one of them with the night. it was really help with a very welcome. this is the weekly on, on the international with the latest world news, along with a round up with the stories that shaped the week is good to happy with us. now we're starting the, our with the latest on the ukraine conflicts, the russian defense ministry has confirmed that launch to and strikes on ukrainian military command centers, unrelated infrastructure on saturday to little further else minnesota took on january 14th. a missile attack was carried out on ukrainian military command and

control systems of related energy facilities. all targets were hit. on the donuts france, russian troops have advanced to the northern outskirts of the city of our tim oaks and the sole railway station. oh, 1st of all, in regards to our tel mosque, which is sir no in the west as a backward because the ukraine had renamed that city back in 2016. well, the, the city of 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 a win on the barrack battle grounds of their will allow the russian armed forces to advance further towards the cities of foss, lavarne scans or chromos source kanza. that's a yet another major stronghold of the ukrainian military and the currently an occupied territory of the generic 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 this territory. on saturday, several of the countries regions 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 at now proper troughs, ukraine and officials 1st blamed russia for the direct destruction of the building, but sets up advisor to ukrainian president. alexey are established confirmed that it was and not a direct hit, but the work of ukrainian air defense systems for you, but it was below no pull in the police. the missile was shut down, but it fell on the building. it exploded when it fell down. authorities in ukraine were quick to disagree with the speaker that you've just heard. and the mayor of never petrov kaz are already called for are

a storage to be investigated by the countries security services. meanwhile, russian military officials have as stated, sime and again, that says civilians are never the targets of russian 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, at this provocation, as they called it was the plans 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 stage 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 that russian forces return to keeps controlled due to successful negotiations. that sir took place of the time by 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 its board, russia has vehemently deny delegation. so in general, the latest ukrainian provocation falls in, i would, that gives attempts to boost military support from the was due to its own failures on the battle ground. well, as our correspondent mentioned this week, so russian troops feel

a significant victory on the front lines that don't yet square public. the wagner military group took the key ton of solid are under its control. according to the russian defense ministry, his troops assisted rankin of forces in winning b pass over the sold mining town is some of the latest footage from the scene showing damage to residential property. after months of heavy fighting, ukrainian troops abandoned some western supplied weapons and ammunition as they fled to the town. moscow stays the wagner. troops were instrumental and winning the path of the solar door which paved the way for the russians to push further into the nearby strategic town. a strategic city rather as ot him off. squish ukraine cause bach mood and is heavily defending with deeply entrenched positions. now the volcanic group also released this exclusive footage showing its co founder russian . a businessman, pray, goes in inspecting an underground salt mine in solid dar, along with some of his troops the tunnel. it was previously used by the ukrainian military as an arms

a storage facility. he had all the don yet republic say that after followed our rushes, military will be able to advance towards a severe ask another key location in the region. the cities of crime, a tor scans, live janski's would then be the next important targets for the russian armed forces . meanwhile, desperate relatives of ukrainian fighters who were said to be missing or in captivity had taken to the streets of kias. and were local media labeled a march of widows, women were seen holding photos of their husbands cooling on the government to help bring them home. protests full of multiple eye witness accounts, suggesting the key as is reluctance to retrieve them of its wound. it inflamed service men from the battlefield, cabs a big is the military backer, the united states as downplayed the significance of the latest developments on the front line. according to the white, as you were, whitehouse spokesperson, the ukrainian armies defeat in solid. i will not have an impact on the conflict. we

don't know how it's going to go, so i'm not gonna predict failure or success here. but even if they're both back mood and sell 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 the ukrainians or, or slow them down in terms of their and their efforts to regain their territory. let's put it this way of sold or hadn't fallen in the ukrainian defenses that they have 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 82550000 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 bok. moot, um, the, the fact is that the defense of this area is going to become untenable and or rather than risk, an even larger cauldron. the ukraine's will have no choice but to withdraw and seek, create a new defensive bill. 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. meanwhile, family members are the russian soldier who is being held captive by ukrainian trip, said being extorted by individuals threatening to kill the military prisoner. let's get responded to the incident by calling on the international community to persuade chaos. to respect the geneva conventions, which cor, for the humane treatment of p r

w is the russian prison. his family has released the following factor to which he might find distressing. i truly warmer during jim leider and enjoy your horse. sure, sure. her she knew lucy, that you were alone. you're rich. we're like that he won't leave you my is because this is courtney. as long as he was his house them didn't give me this long so. oh oh yes. oh wow said unionist his brother ross. this is noah my mama version issue, that young genius, legislative as yours wooster, at almost a massive brand shows of speech,

so the relative se they also received this image, allegedly depicting the captured russian soldier with his head, veiled and taped salt. the 1st time ukraine's troops had been accused of abusing russian prisoners of war, previous incidents. so some p o w is being beaten and tortured or even executed in cold blood after they had already surrendered. his cases have been documented and condemned by the united nations. versus the human rights commission that has issued a statement commenting on the latest video i call on the ukrainian parliament commissioner for human rights, the u. n. the use unto torture committee and the red cross to immediately demand ukrainian compliance with the geneva convention, which prohibits the use of torture violence, an action degrading human dignity. human rights le duncan valet, told us the caves atrocities aren't directly linked to western military aid, which allows it to continue committing them as follows. the pattern certainly going

back to 2014, when the current regime was installed with the help of the united states. this is not a democratic government. this is a government that in prisons, opposition leaders that has tortured civilians killed civilians. we know that the government of kias has been attacking its own people, the dom passed since 201414000 people died even before the special operations began. that goes against the narrative that the west is trying to maintain. and that is this, you know, man, i can view the world where the trainings are the good guys, the russians of the bad guys. and this allows up, you know, the justification for tens of billions of dollars military aid to continue to flow to ukraine. it's nato weaponry that is allowing the ukraine military to continue to

fight and to continue to carry out war crimes. u. s. continues to suffer very serious economic and social problems that need to be addressed in people. want those things to be addressed, want money to go to those problems. and last semester, people want money to be going to military assistance to credit at least 68 people are confirmed that in a plane crash near catman to airport, we had from a russian citizen working after navy ation club, me the scene and locals who arrived also who describe what they saw of the scene of beauty airlines plane crash as it was flying from cap mander to pull her up behind me, you can see the site where the police were sifting through the remains of the plains wing highlighting the serial. it was at this point that the plane crashed. it fell on the opposite bank of the river when you're just police say, the police have court and all the crush side. and the rescue operation is still ongoing. we're can see several ambulances as well as a far talk. however, the blaze was quickly contained, as the pain was flying from kaufman due,

and had already spend all of its fuel on the way. so that when the currently, 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 plane disappeared over the horizon. there was an explosion and fire and that was it . typical loss of speed and corkscrews, with the unverified armor to fetch, apparently shows the moment before and after the crash, the claim was reportedly trying to make an emergency landing before it fell to the ground. the napoli government has declared january the 16th the day of morning and has ordered inspections of all domestic aircraft. that's the passengers had to survive traumatic experience before they died. as the following disturbing footage shows. this video, also in verified and circulating online, allegedly filmed by

a passenger shows the moments before the aircraft plummeted to the ground. ortiz runjun sharma has moved 80 or 72 of the yeti. a line that was on the road from the capital city of new ball. got mando dupel cra, and that stretch takes about 30 minutes and 20 minutes into the take off from god mondo. the crash was reported that 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 lean towards the reward and that's where the crash was reported down 11. am local dying on the back of the statute. this was only about one and a half kilometer was from the airport where the plane was supposed to land. now, as for the civil authorities of the ball, there were 15 foreign nationals and 4 crew members of these 4 nationals. and who

did about 5 indians for russians to korean and some other nationalities as well. now as far as the prime minister of bothers concerned, a push because the hard, he's held an emergency meeting with his cabinet and on monitoring the situation very, very closely. me police are me as well as police, and also some local, really trying to help in the rescue operations there at this stage that are different reports on how many dead bodies have been pulled out a. but at this stage, it could be very difficult to see if anyone has lived on order for the chances of that a very, very, very unlikely. what happened with our cleaning of details are still very catchy at this point. but of course, we keep following all the updates and we keep on yours updated on that. the chinese new foreign minister is wrapping up

a group of hooligans that were here, knowing that they are served in their, in this hotel. and they said that we have been waiting for you. so that means that they were preparing this one before they did it. the parents were, of course, shocked. those some of them were wounded. little children were terrified in this beautiful opportunity for children from all around the region to join together and to share last and joy was unfortunately missed and abused by this terrible event. nestor and most of those to this aside from all that happened before the police came, one officer said something really disgusting to me. it was a provocation. he got up close to my face and said, what do you want? pardon my language, but it was really like that. i didn't expect the police to react like that. his coworker on the other hand, came up and reassured me with a hug. my kids were standing next to me and he said, come down,

because he said she said her 1st week that the guests inside i will work on that. and then in the next week, she said that people from bell good that so no indication of mentioning that it was sort of being children and serving parents that weren't that. and they were that exactly because they were serves as the hooligans themselves said that they haven't backed them on it for that reason. and because of the so called propagation, although no sort of flags were brought there on the flag of the team on the team that was playing. and the problem is that the letters on the flag were in cyrillic and they can now move on the blood. and those who are going to start that is a pro cation and the situation is currently that their parents are deciding whether to go back to mel, written a feeling done during the police or conference. i will said that they arrested for

against colonialists asian. however, political analysts, christopher halle says the occupied territory is just used by the west to plunder with lake in many other conflicts around the world. the people here in western sahara don't have the voice or the power to challenge western hegemony, and therefore they are powerless. and we see em, oftentimes, all over the world that people who have natural resources that people who have done the things that the imperialists, once the united states, in western europe, they come to plunder. so right now in the occupied parts of western sahara under morocco, multinational corporations of various countries including many european countries, are going and blundering the natural resources, including fishing, including minerals and or including agricultural products as well as tourism. basically on a stolen land,

they are advancing their economic interest. so of course, they're not going to listen to this to how people here in the refugee camp, nor to decide how people are. i'm going to continue to do what they've always done, not only here but around the world, and that is to plunder the resources and to continue the line of the imperialist ah, to germany now where climate activists have tied themselves to trees in the municipality of litzy roth, das, in protest against the expansion of a cold line for th from the scene shows police force is using a crane at to retrieve activists from the outposts high up in the trees. the current protests reportedly began 5 days ago with activists setting up barricades around the sides. according to local media reports up to a 1000 protested occupied the in the village. and the mining question is owned and operated by the german energy joint on w e. as being the subject of frequent demonstrations
