on the streets and bus stops that emergency services are on the scene. the 3 story building was non residential. it housed offices, including a pharmacy, it, according to preliminary data, there may be people under the rubble of up invited. according to the latest reports, at least 4 people were wounded in this attack. here's what some locals told us at the scene. go b, dornbush would happen very early in the morning. i was sleeping at the time. i live here on the 5th floor. presentable, but following i was passing a traffic light the 1st time it landed somewhere near by the 2nd time it hit the building. i tried to avoid being hit and sped up till the 3rd time it hit me. i feel okay, i guess if it is possible to feel okay. and here are sundays images from daniel showing damage after ukraine shall residential areas there. local authorities say at least 3 people were injured that day and at least 5 settlements came under fire. one of the strikes took place in the city of boil of got our teeth

. raman cars that are have reports from the area. ukrainian nationalists can senior chaotic and indiscriminate artillery shelling of civilian areas, hand anesco republic, right now we're in a town of call of god and this residential building is a right in this center of the city, according to local officials, a $155.00 millimeter caliber rockets, us truck, this building and destroyed one of the apartments. now all of the windows in this building had been blown out. thankfully, there were no civilians in the apartment that was destroyed. however, at least 3 civilians were wounded as the result of ukrainian artillery shelling walker with all of the windows, was shot at and mentioned to services, gave us tape with taped out broken windows though is the central part of gaul of k . i have no idea what people launching this rock. it's a thinkin the old a horribly. honestly i have no more strength left. no nurse,

we simply free to walk the streets, the space to go to work, to seat at home. what if the child was here? the child is 4 and a half years old. what would have happened? repair crews in goal of car and then the rest of the cities of the vast republic are working almost 247 to try and help civilians repair their homes, repair a gas pipelines and the supply of electricity and water as well. of course, they're hoping that this will soon and, and they will be able to return to their normal work as always. but family were repairing electrical lines after ukrainian shelling houses are destroy right on a daily basis. we've got a lot to do. we're repairing electricity lines and power stations, so they create a lot of problems for us. those soldiers aiming at civilian sites are obviously empty headed, but i think justice will be served a little. how did that do that?

i will get you. we heard a rumble. we started sound and the alarm i ran downstairs and so my daughter was all cowered in glass. she was running and shouting that we should hurry to find shelter. ukrainian nationalist struck this house at 2 30 in the morning. he can see full of a shrapner holes from a 100 to 5 millimeter natal supplied weapon to ukraine. now, a woman was sleeping career on this couch when the attack took place. according to her mom, something made her get up shortly before the attack and she switched from this side of the couch to this side of the couch. and as you can see, there is a bullet hole right here. and having moves in the middle of the night that probably saved her life both the daycare news relative to it was half past 2 in the morning we were still awake when i heard

a crash upstairs. it was very loud. so we ran and hid in our basement. then when they stopped shooting, we came out of her hiding places to assess the aftermath. the windows were all blown out, doors gone and our personal belongings were in fire. the heating and gas system were out. gas was dripping, but emergency services came and fixed it. these bastards are attacking us when you're asleep. these are heartless creatures. animals, no, not even animals worse. this is the spot to where the ukrainians strike took place . miraculously, and no one was killed during this attack as the family were sleeping right next door. and this building is purely for storage. however, the residents in the city of gorka are experiencing ukrainian artillery strikes on a daily basis. and people get killed and wounded nearly on a daily basis from on cause for i've already done escrow public president the lens

. he claims that the battle for the key town of soul adar continues. that's despite the russian defense ministry confirming that the town is under its control as russian troops cher footage from the front lines. here, sunday exclusive footage from the scene showing damages to residential buildings. after months of heavy fighting, ukrainian troops abandon western supplied weapons and ammunition as they fled the town. moscow says the wagner troops were instrumental in winning the battle for sal adar, we heard exclusively from 2 fighters who say the operation was destined to succeed . well it would have just on. busy what a fellow that we are now in solid hour, which has recently been liberated by the pmc wagner result troops. we faced strong resistance from ukrainian nationalists. despite their high professionalism, we surpass them in every way. we are urban fighters. so snow used trying to compete

with us here. i think i result was destined to succeed. as you can see from the dispositions, there were battles for practically every house. the enemy really dug into the city, refusing to give up their positions. but since the onslaught of musicians here was especially heavy, the ukrainians had to retreat. but in fear less than 3000000 in general during this sold, our soldiers operate actively abruptly and tried to break into the enemy's positions before they know it. most commonly and the sold happens under the cover of our own artillery. it launches strikes while our soldiers break into the enemy's positions . so the enemies don't even have time to raise their hats because they are 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 sy procedurally fire . it was a little more difficult. still in active 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 the a gyptian and arab league officials, marking his last stop in a multi leg trip across africa. aimed at boosting the continence ties to beijing. the chinese foreign minister reiterated beijing's vision for a multi polar world. or we can shoot, we agreed to work together to implement the spirit of the react declaration which affirms multilateral international order based on international law. and the dedication of common values for community represented in peace, justice development, democracy and freedom. and the rejection of the position with human rights issues and their use as a tool to interfere in internal affairs of other countries. the vivid by chinese foreign luther king hong is really to solidify his relationship with egypt. the

continents number one economy and china has poured billions into their economy. having invested in the suicide can now which it has a new economy zone, which is largely develop the chinese money. and china has also been influential in the development of a localized production of vaccines in egypt. having collaborated through sign of farm and the government of egypt is also putting in money into the new administrative capital. in cairo, there was also a meeting with the arab league, general secretary, which is seen as very important because china has been a big part of, of the middle east end. that multi lateral flora of corporation. as witness through the re add declaration, which was signed a couple of years ago. but china as

a leading investor on the continent as a whole continent of africa, was really here to, to reassure some of its pride non countries that investment will keep, will keep coming. and that the road and belt initiative may have slowed, but it still has some life in it. as we move along. foreign minister kin also visits had been in algola as well as, as gum one, looking into infrastructure investment with countries like not well, i've been in, we're looking to, to a band the export of raw materials, particularly soybeans in the next 2 years. and china is seen as an important member in establishing the localization of the manufacturing of that being which would be of benefit to the populace within berlin itself. but let's listen now to some of the comments that were made by minutes. the kin, as well as the e. u. chair person miss them with stuff i can do whatever can nice is so dorothy

and corporation, not confrontation, no country, no people have the right to force african countries and their people to take sides . africa should be a platform for international cooperation, not an arena for competition between major countries. africa refuses to be seen as an arena for competing influence. we're open to cooperation and partnerships with everyone as long as their respect our principles, our priorities now interests. the partnership with her, with china is built on this principles. let's keep in mind that this comes following what the americans have been trying to do and the other side, which is also to reestablish his relationship with the continent. following the december summit with joe biden, head with over 40 african heads of faith in washington, throwing as of $65000000.00 of investment over the next 3 years. which pales in comparison when one looks at the investments that have been made by china,

which are data dead. estimates that china is of it out some $160000000000.00 worth of loans to african countries between the 2000 and the 2020 as africa gains, prominence, and finds it's placed in a new multi polar world. artie speaks exclusively with the era tray and ambassador, he shares his thoughts on the future of the african continent, cooperation with russia and much more. you can watch a full version on our team throughout the day or on our website at archie dot com. but for now, here's a quick preview. ah, russia has been accused of neo colonialism and of seeking to expand its influence there. ah, do you think that is the case? and if not, what is perhaps who stands to benefit from driving a wedge between russia and africa. and the 1st groceries are cute. who is accused

to rush. ha, is city. i'm is in those countries walk years rational. who might accuse russia are the ones who i've been there for long and as new york. what analysis and connie analysis? i see the of us areas where we can cooperate through the russia beach in the security sector, threat sector, economic sector, and defense sector. or for dr. martin also in other areas. the cooperation with our show could be very important in the ugly culture sector, also beat. and it's also flo. how in the transfer of her asian, the productivity of he can awaken in no, i think good. russia will sell us anything else we'd like to have. oh oh. and 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 cast cindy in the eastern region of the g. r. c, near its border with uganda, and army spokesman said that half 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 ag have, has not yet claimed responsibility for the attack. we spoke to the provisional 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's more of what he had to say. liberal but i mean, i would not like to speak on behalf of the government because i am not

a member of each group. i represent the interest with the people i walk as a deputy. but i know that the president of the darcy's asked 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 the can diplomatic effort solely. the government also took steps or the level of the un security council to abolish the mandatory notification of the security council, a body supply of weapons to the darcy, please. this. this allows the darcy authorities to provide your troops with weapons and buy them from trusted suppliers. in addition, i am aware that the government has carried out a general mobilization in order to strengthen the armed forces of the d r. c. in order to successfully fight the if and l u,

but you gander also supported us diplomatically, is provided a contingency to support the troops, the d r c in operations, to neutralize activists. and i'm groups. since the uganda troops entered the territory of the grand naught. 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, there has been is sit and come. yes, they are still models, but it still in law. this are the stage. it is premature to talk about success was gay, but gays to progress in this direction. because killings now are called 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. artie's room june sharma has more in the relationship with russia, dates back to the call for, but the year gone by 2022 house particularly been an important one. the bilateral trade between new delhi and more school has triple the ad. russia has become india as a top oil supply or in the last 3 months of 2022. so passing its dominant, its traditional while suppliers like saudi arabia is wrong in the us appetite for russian crude has massively grow one from one percent in february of 2022 and last year to 25 percent in december. so that's why you jump there in the now and boating over 1000000 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 do find these are sanction seeing that we want to prioritize the energy security for a 1400000000 people. india has made itself very clear to the west and the wall that it is going to exercise its true. t jacob don't meet what is meant 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 backdoor and bought russian oil to the you know, we're going to look at some di da here or take for instance, the job now. good to find re in india, best cost each imports of russian oil have increased at these 4 time from 2021 to 2020 to the same to finally the job to find re also supplies oil to the u. k. and look at the u. k. has imported 29 shipments of these will and other refined products from job numbers since the beginning of the conflict in ukraine and

compare that to 2021. only 7 shipments. 10000000 barrels. all oil in 2022. got to 2021 for median battles for that's the difference and as data also with a question mark on what the meaning of all these sanctions, radius, 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 discounted russian oil. if would be interesting now, to see what the u. k. federal response to what ukraine has to say about their imports all owing from india. as europe struggles to find new sources of energy, cars, energy minister is confident that your up a resume by rushing gas despite the unions pledge to win itself off russian energy

imports. do europeans today are saying 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 it much bigger diversity. the trash and gas is going back in my view to europe. speaking at the global energy conference and doha, the katara minister worn that europe will struggle to replenish its gas storage until at least 2025. the official also added that gas is a realistic solution to achieving the use much promoted green energy goals without rush and gas on the market. energy prices will remain too high for europe to push forward with its environmental plans. we spoke to a banking and academics professor richard werner, who says europe is finding it hard to replace russian energy in ports. a terry and energy minister who's heading b and the yeah. 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 receive it. and so there's, there's a whole number of logistics issues you conscious overnight switch to american or 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 euro. and but overall, the demand is significant. ah, the twenty's and capital has been flooded by thousands of protesters marching against the near total seizure of power by the countries president, people called for his resignation as they marked the anniversary of the arabs spring protests that shut the regions political landscape. the demonstrations have been marred by clashes with police and calls for regime change. people are outraged by the economic crisis and rising unemployment ripping the country. here's what locals had to say about their grievances. isn't it? and what is it?

and we've had enough, the cost of living has increased. prices have gone up, we have come to defend our revolution. what is the state? it's the president and his government. he's the one who runs it. so it's up to him to account for what he has not done in the country for a year and a half. he has done nothing. he has monopolized all the authorities and institutions. he has made promises, but he has done nothing today and i've been this message not. i cannot build a family, have a child because i am afraid of the situation. i see as a result, one cannot do anything in one's life, nor evolve in one's professional career, nothing because the situation is not going in the right direction. set also miss, look, if 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 been over a decade since denisia was proclaimed the only arab country that won the fight for

democracy and freedom. has anything really change for the people of the country? are te, 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. many had claimed that she nidia was the only country to win the fight for freedom and democracy of the toppling of president ben allie, ending of nearly 25 years of his role rival groups or even awarded the nobel prize in 2015 in a bell piece. price for 2015 is to be awarded to the technician,

national dialogue quartets for its decisive contribution to the building of a pluralistic democracy. in tonisha elections in december were largely boycotted with just 11 percent of eligible voters taking part in a poll and political parties ban from running chinese. he has western allies, including the united states and france, have expressed concern, and the country's economy lies in tatters. trinity has been hit by sewing food prices and shortages of fuel and basic staples like sugar, vegetable, and rice. and to make matters worse, the cash struck country is losing money at a time when it needs it. the most chinese here has been forced to go cap in hand to the international monetary fund. it struck a preliminary agreement of a $1900000000.00 loan in october. but that has now been frozen, pending further economic reforms. as the u. s. threatens to wield its veto,

causing panic amongst foreign investors. many of whom have announced plans to leave the country while washington has cut off humanitarian aid to months after the year 60 is state met with the chinese him president, lavishing him with praise. will no doubt be talking about our support for inclusive transparent elections. ah, thee, he can amik program that so important to the future, the taishan people. but what was the arab spring in reality? well, back in 2010, it was hailed by many in the west as a victory for democracy. governments were toppled as protests spread like wildfire to countries including egypt, yemen, bahrain, algeria, jordan, and iraq. one of the bloodiest events bundled in with the arrow spring, was a nato bombardment of libya in 2011, but ended in disaster. and the brutal execution of luma gadhafi with

a country descending into a quagmire from which is never fully recovered. with the resurgence of jihadist and a bitter war between rival governments, but get duffy's demise was celebrated by the west as we came. we saw a died in sylvia foreign intervention lead to a lengthy conflict. but despite sanctions of western back proxies, president assad remains empower. iraq remains unstable with frequent protests and difficulties forming a government, egypt to have been plagued by instability. and schoo nicea is now witnessing fresh unrest and a dire economic crisis. so more than a decade on the question remains was a all worth it. and that's her up on this hour's top stories for more up to the minute use updates, head over to r t dot com. and don't forget to follow us on odyssey rumble and gab from our content. thanks for tuning, etc. again, that's our,

ah ah, in 1884, the german empire began its colonial invasion into namibia. from the very start, berlin encouraged the white colonists to settle in south west africa and take away the best land from the local tribes. the germans were actively draining natural resources and using the local population as a cheap labor source. this was causing major protests and led to a rebellion in 19 o 4 the hero and nom a tribes rebuild against german colonial rule. kaiser wilhelm, the 2nd was fully determined and ordered to suppress the rebellion with the utmost

severity against the inhabitants of namibia. germany through is 15000 well equipped army. all around the country concentration camps were built. in humane medical experiments over citizens were conducted within the period of 4 years. the germans killed up to 60000 people, among which there were 80 percent of the hero tribe, and 50 percent of the nama tribe. the events in south west africa are called the 1st genocide of the 20th century, and not without reason are compared to the holocaust just 2 decades later after the massacre in namibia hitler's assault unit put on the same brown colonial uniform which push the world into the chasm of the 2nd world war.
