hiding from artillery strikes. we advance quite quickly, especially in the residential sector. but sometimes we stumble as well. here with dense, high rise buildings from the upper floors of which the observation is easier and from which snipers usually fire. it was a little more difficult still inactive advancement, a ski to our success during the assault, therefore, so dar was taken relatively quickly. china's chief diplomat was in cairo on sunday for talks with egyptian and arab league officials, marking his last stop in a multi like trip across africa, aimed at boosting the continence ties to beijing. the chinese foreign minister reiterated beijing's vision for a multi polar world's partner. not only can soon we agreed to work together to implement the spirits of the react declaration which affirms multilateral international order based on international law. and the dedication of common values

4:15 am
also the 8th and the answer of know how in the transfer or for asian, the productivity of he co wiccan and no, i think russia will sell us anything else. we'd like to have ho oh, at least 10 people have reportedly been killed with dozens more injured in a bomb explosion at a sunday church service in the democratic republic of congo. we must warn you that the following images are distressing. a protestant church was attacked in the city of casting d in the eastern region of the d. r. c, near its border with uganda, and army spokesman said that a task was likely carried out by the allied democratic forces. a militant group in central africa with links to isis, responsible for killing hundreds of civilians over the past 2 years. the adf hasn't yet claimed responsibility for the attack. we spoke to the provisional
4:16 am
deputy and vice president of the provincial assembly in the region who stated that the d r. c. government has taken pivotal diplomatic steps to finding a solution to the problem of terrorism in the region. here is more of what he had to say. general to hippa, no, i would not like to speak on behalf of the government because i'm not in member of it. i represent the interest of the people i walk as a deputy. but i know that the president of the d r c asked for the negotiations diplomatically to get a support of the international community to find a solution on a regional level. because the issue of insecurity in not cable is across the border regional issue. they are now making diplomatic efforts. the governments also took steps at the level of the un security castle to abolish the mandatory notification of the security council,
4:17 am
a body supply of weapons to the darcy. this allows the darcy authorities to provide our troops with weapons and buy them from trusted suppliers. in addition, i am aware that he governments as carried out a general mobilization in order to strengthen the armed forces of the d r c. in order to successfully fight the adf and l. u butcher gander also support that. also diplomatically, it's provided a contingency to support the troops. the d. r. seen operations to neutralize activists and i'm groups says the uganda troops entered the territory of the grand gnawed in particular in benny will feel to desa port. it must be said that since the beginning of the joint operations of the emphasis of the d. r. c. r u gander. since the beginning of this campaign the has been is sit and come. yes d i still motors, but it's still in law at the stage. hm. and it is pretty much sure to talk about
4:18 am
success. bodies to progress in this direction. because killings, now or cold, much less frequently done before the entry of uganda troops. india has broken new records, importing more than $1000000.00 barrels of oil per day from russia, making new delhi, it's hot crude supplier for 3 months in a row. art is wrong and sharma has more in the relationship with russia, dates back to the call for, but the young gordon by 2022 has particularly been an important one. the bilateral trade between new delhi and moscow has tripled the ad. russia has become india as a top oil supply or in the last 3 months of 2022. so passing its dominant, its traditionally while suppliers like saudi arabia is wrong in the us appetite for russia. and crude has massively grow one from one percent in february of 2022 and
4:19 am
last year to 25 percent in december. so that's a huge jump there in the now and boating over $1000000.00 barrels of crude oil. birdie a new were recall there. i'm pretty, it makes perfect sense for india considering india is the 3rd largest consumer or oil in the world. and that was one of the reasons given by india for defined. these are sanction seeing that we want to prioritize the n no g security for a 1400000000 people in the us made itself very clear to the west and the wall that it is going to exercise it through t j could on to me what it's meant to is not only secure and you know g for its people, but in dazzle. so exporting more now leaders, ada, suggesting that india would be offering back door and bought russian oil to the you care. we're going to look at some di da here or take, for instance, the job now go to find re in india,
4:20 am
best cost. it's important. russian oil have increased these 4 time from 2021 to 2020 to the seem to find the job number to find read also supplies oil to the u. k . and look at the u. k. has imported 29 shipments of diesel and other refined products from job numbers since the beginning of the conflict in ukraine and compared to 2021. only 7 shipments. 10000000 barrels all oil in 2022. got to 2021. for 1000000 barrels for that's the difference. and as data also with a question mark on what the meaning of all these sanctions really is. the u. k. must close the loopholes that undermine support for ukraine by allowing bloody fossil fuels to continue flowing across our borders. you see in there has been under constant pressure threats and motor judgments from the west for buying
4:21 am
discounted russian oil. it would be interesting now to see what the u. k. if at all, responds to what ukraine has to say about their imports all owing from india. as europe struggles to find new sources of energy, katara energy minister is confident that europe will resume buying russian gas despite the unions pledge to win itself off, russian energy imports do europeans to day are seen. there is no way we're going back to russian gas. we're all blast to have to be able to forget and to forgive. and i think things get mandate with time. they learn from that situation and probably have a much bigger diversity. the trash and gas is going back in my view to europe. speaking at the global energy conference in doha, the katara minister warned that europe will struggle to replenish its gas storage until at least 2025. you official also added back gas is a realistic solution to achieving the use much promoted green energy goals without
4:22 am
rush and gas on the market. energy prices will remain too high for europe to push forward with environmental plans. we spoke to banking and economics. professor richard werner, who says europe is finding it hard to replace russian energy and ports because terry and energy minister who's heading the a little gas company is really looking at the facts and the reality. and he's very much aware of the european demand and requirement for energy. and the reality is, as he points out, that the u. s. supplies that everyone is now preparing for do take time. i mean, there's not enough for shipping terminals to then receive it. and so there's, there's a whole number of logistics issues you conscious overnight switch to american or
4:23 am
the gas supply. so the reality is, the gas that the gas from russia will be needed. and we really see in the m u. k, india, a case that and these indirect measures are now being taken where essentially russian gas is being imported. but it's just not admitted. that is russian gas because it 1st goes to it from russia to india, is refined there and then imported. so the reality is that until 2025, it will be difficult to replace russian gas. the winter has been somewhat mild this year. so it wasn't so far hasn't been a big crisis for europe. but overall, the demand is significant. holler tensions in the west. it change their views, that according to european parliament member,
4:24 am
make wallace who stated the primary goal of nato is to subjugate european countries to us imperialism. petition snake to start representing the people and stop representing naida plus military industrial complex. naida was formed by the us to keep european countries subservient to u. s. imperialism, the people want. peace, not war. they want, and then to us need a proxy war. despite many calling for de escalation, western governments appear focused on inflaming the conflict. the nato chiefs does, he is expecting more heavy weapons to be sent to ukraine in the near future. we are in a decisive face of the war. therefore, it is important that we equip ukraine with a weapons. it needs to win. mil to support for ukraine is the fastest way to peace . this comes as some western nations shall reluctance to send new types of heavy
4:25 am
weaponry to keep the u. k. defense ministry for one has denied plans to send a party attack helicopters to ukraine. that's after a british tabloid report at the helicopters will be part of a newly announced military aid package, which is also set to include challenger to tanks. a made a denial from london. some media outlets report that britain's military is actually testing the apaches for use on the front lines. the training is reportedly based on the experience and lessons. the u. k. has reaped from the ukraine conflicts, including how to counter threats like air defenses, drones and electronic warfare. this comes as prime minister, richie su, neck urges, as western allies to increase the flow of weapons to cab, former hamburg left party member of parliament. martin dozer believes that the west is simply profiting from the conflict and ukraine and actually wants us to go on. if you look at that, i think that's an escalation. and why. ready why they do it because of the
4:26 am
profit of the weapon industry. they make a lot of money for that. and it's because they're used to study, they russia and to go further from china, the china and the fuel to fight on economic to military. and of course, it's nonsense to weapons and weapons and twitter grain was only a largest coke. there has to be such an end to this stupid spiral of sending weapons. but some of the actors in all european countries and in the us as well, they profits much of this war and they want to bring this law going on and going on that to need. and capital has been flooded by thousands of protesters marching against the near total seizure of power by the countries president,
4:27 am

4:28 am
nothing because the situation is not going in the right direction. sit also in the suck i left, the rate of price increases will continue as well as the existence of shortages of basic necessities in the country. this is for the simple reason that the state does not have the financial resources to pay for imports such as cereals. already marking over a decade since denisia was proclaimed the only arab country that won the fight for democracy and freedom. has anything really changed for the people of the country? are t, steve sweeney dig deeper into the story. the spotlight has fallen once more on the birthplace of the so called arab spring, shanicea trove is on from the revolution. people are throwing the streets in mass rallies against the president who sees power and is all trinity. is parliament march 2022. and what has been described as a constitutional cou,
