$1000000.00 barrels of russian crew to per day. with moscow remain in new delhi biggest energy supplier with just on 2 pm on monday and a new week's getting underway in the russian capital. my name is peter scott, i'm wherever you are. joining us from. welcome to 30 minutes of news and analysis. now we start with the latest from done yet, where shelling was reported on monday with 2 civilians killed a local journalists census this report from the scene. what the quiz such in dora. this is a tragic start to the working week for local residence. at 90 m, the ukrainian army fired 3 m l r's rockets at a peaceful city. this happened exactly at the moment when people were driving to work. there was maximum traffic on the roads and there were many local residents 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, and according to preliminary data, there may be people under the rubble but, but according to the latest reports, at least 4 people will also wounded in this attack. here's what some locals told us at the scene. go boot unprofessional. it happened very early in the morning. i was sleeping at the time. i live here on the 5th floor. president obama knowing i was passing a traffic like the 1st time it landed somewhere near by the 2nd time it hit the building. i tried to avoid being hit and sped up. the 3rd time it hit me. i feel okay, i guess if it is possible to feel okay in this situation, i have some injuries from broken glass from car windows to lou louis. of course, there has been more shilling of the nancy in office building with shell. it's a civilian object. an investigation is underway. there are people injury where currently rescued people from on the durable and taking measures to save them. on here, on sundays images from done yet,

so in damage of ukrainian shells hits residential areas. local authorities say the 3 people were injured that day. as 5 settlements came under fire. one of the strikes took place in the city of goal of co, and ortiz rome. a quarter of such as this report from the area ukrainian nationalists can senior chaotic and indiscriminate artillery shelling of civilian areas, hanes anesco republic right now we're in a town or girl of god. and this residential building is right in the center of the city, according to local officials, 155 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 number listed as abusive. all of the windows was shot at emergency 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 how the old horribly honestly i have no more strength left. no nurse was simply afraid 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 to prepare a cruise 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 destroyed 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 teach you. we heard a rumble. we started south and alan, i ran downstairs and so my daughter was all coward 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 155 millimeter natal supplied weapon to ukraine. now, a woman was sleeping in corral 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 well did it, you know, when it said 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. these bastards are attacking us when we are asleep. these are heartless creatures. animals. no, not even animals worse verses this far 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 the 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 our causeway. bertie don't ask republic. the ukranian president volume is the landscape says the bustle for the town of philadelphia continues enough, despite the russian defense ministry so that the town is under its control. as russian troops jeff footage, from the front lines of his some exclusive footage from the theme. so in the devastation of the month of heavy fighting, ukrainian troops, abundant western supplied weapons and ammo. as they withdrew from the town. moscow says the von troops were instrumental in winning the battle for solid, and we had exclusively from 2 fights as well, the quote of zone. what are this live that we're now in solidarity, 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 use 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 not written in general during their 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 snipers usually fire. it was a little more difficult. still,

an active advancement is key to our success during the assault. therefore, so there was taken relatively quickly in other news, china is the chief diplomats was in cairo on sunday, full talks with egyptian and arab league officials, mock and his last stop on a multi light trip across africa. that was aimed at boosting the confidence thighs to beijing. the chinese foreign ministry reiterated beijing's vision for multiple the world partial song, chance shoot. we agreed to work together to implement the spirit of the react declaration which affirms a multilateral international order based on international law. and the dedication of common values for humanity represented in peace, justice development, democracy and freedom. and the rejection of the palletization of human rights issues and their use as a tool to interfere in internal affairs of other countries. the visit by chinese foreigners, the king hung 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 developed and 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, the continent of africa was really here to, to reassure some of it's 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 visit had been in angola as well as, as gum one, looking into infrastructure investment. and with countries like not, well, i've been in, we're looking to to ben the export of raw materials, particularly so i've been from 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 less than now to some of the comments that were made by minutes, the kin as well as the e. u. chair person list them with

a funky feeder. whatever can nice is so dirty and cooperation, 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. lucky africa refuses to be seen as an arena for computing influence. we're open to cooperation and partnerships with everyone as long as their respect our principles, our priorities now interests. the partnership we're here 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 $55000000.00 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 was african influence in the world continues to grow arts, he speaks exclusively with the airy train ambassador and he shares his thoughts on the future of the continent or cooperation with russia and much more. now you can watch the full version on oxy throughout the day or so. our websites are t dot com for now. here's a quick teaser. ah, russia has been accused of neo colonialism and of seeking to expand its influence there. do you think that is the case and if not, what is perhaps who stands to benefit from driving a wedge between russia in africa. the 1st place we accuse it who is accused russia

is really amazing. those countries walk, use russia who might accuse russia are the ones who i've been there for long and as new york, what analysts and colonialists, i think there are vast areas where we can corporate through the russia beach, in the security sector, threat sector, economic sector, and defense sector all for that matter, also in other areas. the cooperation with russia could be very important in the agricultural sector also with in their thrasher of law. how are in the transfer of her asian, the productivity, africa awakening? no, i think russia will sell us anything that we'd like to have. oh, ah. the least 10 people have reportedly been

killed with dozens more injured in a bomb explosion as a sunday church service in the democratic republic of the congo. i must warn you that you may find the following images disturbing. a protestant church with a tides in the city of cast cindy in the eastern region of the d. r. c. nice border with uganda and ami spokesperson said the attack was likely carried out by the allied democratic forces. the militant group in central africa with links to ices, responsible for killing hundreds of civilians over the past 2 years. the adf hasn't yet claimed responsibility for that attack, though we spoke to the provisional deputy and vice president of the provincial assembly in the region. we stated that the d r. c. government has taken pivotal diplomatic steps to finding a solution to the problem of terrorism in the region and his mobiles the up to say general hippa, but i mean i would not like to speak on behalf of the government because i am not a member of it i represent the interests of the people i walk as a deputy, but i know that the president of the darcy asked for the negotiations

diplomatically to get the support of the international community to find a solution on the original level. because the issue of insecurity in not cable is across the border, regional issues. they are now making diplomatic efforts. the government also took steps or the level of the un security council to abolish demand dietrie, notification of the security council. a body supply of weapons to the d. r. c allows the d. r. c. authorities to provide your troops with weapons and buy them from trusted suppliers. in addition, i am aware that the government as carried out a janera mobilization in order to strengthen the armed forces of the d r c. in order to successfully fight the adf and a l. u, but you gander also supported aust diplomatically. it 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 gnawed in particular in benny will feel to jessa port. it must be said that since the beginning of the joint operations of the emphasis of the d r. c. i, uganda. since the beginning of this campaign, there has been is sit and com. yes, they are still modern suck, but it still in long hills are coming at the stage. it is premature to talk about successful bodies to progress in this direction. because killings now are called, much less frequently done before the entry of uganda troops. now the news india's broken new records, importing more than $1000000.00 barrels of crude oil per day from russia, making a new dela, it's top crude supplier for 3 months in a row. his art is london, london sharma whitmore 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 traditional while suppliers like saudi arabia is wrong in the us appetite for russian crude has massively grew one from one percent in february of 2022 and last year to 25 percent in december. so that's a huge jump there in the are 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 energy security for a 1400000000 people. india has made itself very clear to the west and the wall that

it is going to exercise it through t. jacob on to me what is meant is not only secure and you know g for its people, but also exporting more now leaders ada, suggesting that india would be offering backdoor and bought russian oil to the u. you. we're going to look at some d take, for instance, the job not good to find re in india, best cost. it's important. russian oil have increased these for time from 2021 to 2020 to the same to finally the john the go 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 john nigger since the beginning of the conflict in ukraine and compared to 2021. only 7 shipments. 10000000 barrels. all oil in 2020 to cut to 2021. 4000000 barrels above the difference and as did also with the 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 wanted judgments from the west for buying discounted russian oil. it would be interesting now to see what the you gave it all response to what ukraine has to say about their imports or oil from india. well, as europe struggles to diversify its energy sources kits as energy minister is confidence that the continent will resume buying russian gas in us despite the unions pledge to win itself off, russian energy the 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 it much bigger diversity. but russian gas is going back in my view to europe.

while speaking of the global energy conference in doha, there could sorry, minister warned that you will struggle to replenish his gas storage until at least 2025. the official also added the gas is a realistic solution to achieving that use much promoted green energy goals without russian gas on the market, and the prices will remain too high for europe to push forward with its environmental plans. as, according to the minister, we spoke to banking and economics professor richard verna, who says that europe is finding it hard to replace russian, angie imports. a terry and energy minister who's heading b m d m a little gas company is really looking at the facts and the reality. and he's very much aware of, 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 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 these indirect measures are now being taken where essentially russian gas is being imported. but it's just not admitted that his russian gas, because it 1st goes to it from russia to india, is refined there and then imported 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. it unity in the 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 march the anniversary of the arab spring protest that shook the regions political landscape. the demonstrations have been marred by cautious with police on cold for regime change. people are outraged by the economic crisis and rising unemployment. this gripping the country has some locals have to say about this. isn't this and what is it an ag, i think 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's 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 now. 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. since i wasn't 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 . it over a decade since june, this year was proclaimed the only r up country that when the fights for democracy in freedom, artes esteem sweeney asked if anything really changed for the people in the country . the spotlights has fallen once more on the birthplace of the so called arab spring, shanicea trove is on from the revolution. people thronging the streets in mass rallies against the president who sees power and is all trinity of parliament.

march 2022. and what has been described as a constitutional cou many had claimed that you nivia was the only country to win the fight for freedom and democracy of the toppling of president banashali, ending of nearly 25 years of his rule. rival group so even awarded the nobel prize in 2015 in a bell peace prize for 2015 is to be awarded to detention 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. insta willed is veto causing panic among foreign investors. many of whom have announced plans to leave the country while washington has cut off humanitarian aid. just a month after the secretary of state met with the tunis him president, lavishing him with praise. will no doubt be talking about our support for inclusive transparent elections. ah, the ah economy 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 a 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. yes, 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 she 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. lets her up for this hour. my name is peter scott. i'll be back again at the top of the hour with all the latest news views, analysis writer watson ah ah.

awe on november the 3rd 1945. just a month after the war ended the u. s, joint chiefs of staff receive report number 3 to 9 and select 20 targets to attack
