4:10 am
aligning with washington on political and financial issues which was ferment muscular booth. and our countries are consistent supporters of a more just inclusive democratic and poly centric architecture. for the world order, which would rely on the main principal of the un charter, respect for the sovereign equality of all states. russian foreign minister sergey loves a final stop, was a surprise visit to retreat and the horn of africa with him saying russia is looking into the enhancement of logistical infrastructure in the country. with humor, lam of among the long term plans that are to be worked out in detail. i would like to mentioned the possibility of utilizing the logistical potential of the port masala and the airport. the massage our airport is of interest for its transit capabilities. slave. rob's 2nd visit to africa, interest 6 months, seems to have cemented ties with some of the 7 and eastern regional nations on the

continent. while the minister described africa as a rich continent with colossal potential. it is the russia, africa summit that will take place in saint petersburg in july, which will focus on 4 major issues, food and energy security, technology and health care that will elevate these relations into action plans that hm. so me for archie, johannesburg. elsewhere in east and africa, uganda has begun drilling for its 1st oil well with the goal of commencing the outputs of the commodity. within the next 2 years, the countries president cut the ceremonial ribbon at the king fisher field, being built in collaboration with the time that national offshore oil company. it took place as the guns and government obtained a permit to build a crude oil pipeline to export the commodity to world markets. and he failed development comes 17 years after lucrative oil resources we discovered in the nation. and estimated $40000.00 barrels of oil per day are expected to be produced
4:12 am
according to the countries oil regulator. we heard from an economic expert who states that africa the energy sector is becoming more independent from external power due to the past almost 2 decades. again, i've been trying to explore and to bring its oil resolve into operation into exported to their what we have also to keep an eye on collaborating with partners who have the interest for us. but also, we cannot escape the fact that africa has yet to develop national capacity to explore these resources on its own. basically, we see you got to reap almost 6900000000 of revenue by exporting. while, so this money could ramp up in cation is alia. we expect you guys to at least explore, to almost 40 bearable worldwide day. and this is not only for chris story for the quote to it, but also it's a key lesson that the energy sector can be explored and it can be brought to
4:13 am
a line when africa become serious. and it's, if it's meant to have that it becomes energy independent. now, looking at the ukraine conflict this week, has seen russian troops strengthen their positions and they don't ask republic including an advance on the town of martin. that's a suburb of the city of don yeske. since 2014 has been a strong cold for ukrainian forces. more garcia witnessed intense fire fights in the area. ah, that was an enemy. multiple rocket launcher systems strike on might income. and that is exactly where we're heading. oh, our 24 hours in mud, inca began now here of flashlights, ease,
4:14 am
time them out to suicide. slowly, half blind. we stumbled to a temporary refuge. this is the bunker web. we are spending the night here in modern co, relatively relatively safe. the previous occupants here were ukrainian troops who were literally, as you can tell by the wolves burned out of here. but this is also the answer as to why the battle for marrying 5 g kapinsky. why these battles are taking so long? and that is because these bunkers are everywhere built over the last 8 years by the ukrainian military. built in completely nondescript places above us. this is just a small family whom a private residence of downstairs was unarmed, store and barracks for ukrainian soldiers. power is rationed, food, water, ammo, and fuel. i carried 4 miles before they get here. nothing is wasted. in the early
4:15 am
4:16 am
the tie area covered in smoke is where ukrainian positions up to 300 meters away from us. currently, russian artillery of old fronts and colors. more does houses, fuzz and crop tanks. ah ah, the she held on ukrainian ru credit troops. the battle for monica has dragged on for almost a year. most of it is now under russian control. ukraine and its supporters, they publicly admit now, will never serious about peace talks. it was cover, they spent 8 years preparing for war. they turned my income into
4:17 am
a modern day fortress, almost impregnable, almost asia to use russian to 25 close support to close ground support their craft. coming in very low, following their own guided munitions rockets and getting out before euclidean at defense, us have a child constant lock on an lodge. hm . day by day, month after month, russian troops have demolished ukrainian fortifications. here, here has said thousands of drafted troops into the meat grinder to hold might inca, but there is little doubt that the city will soon be taken slash
4:18 am
a thoroughly. frankly, this is unpleasant for us destroying these buildings. the city, it hurts our souls. but we have no choice. this is our land. the enemy has thrown its reserves at marin county. they use their troops as cannon fodder. they plug any holes with corpses of their own soldiers. they spare no lives. no big concern is we're pushing, but there are difficulties, the enemies resisting and digging in their fighting for every house, but we're pushing them back and advancing. ah, hurt a round. might inca artillery is everywhere. lease automatic. my launcher. the vice shall yoke is a feared thing. ah, life mighty anger is
4:19 am
strategically vital. it is a gateway to that yet. if you crane loses it, it will be a devastating blow to morale, both civilian and military. he have understands this, and it is willing to pile thousands of its troops on to the pile to hold on to mighty inca, which may well be an approximation of hail. for i've guessed the of archie from marrying. ah hungarian, the allegedly being killed in the ukraine conflict, even though it's not their fight, as according to hungary is foreign minister who say is the ethnic nationals living in ukraine's border region with the e. u. country are being forced to fight for keith. in addition to ukrainians, hungarians also die in this war. since hungarians living and transfer paths are also conscripted into the ukrainian army. we've seen some footage in recent days of how brutal it sometimes is. unfortunately, this is an exceptional occasion because an international political life,
4:20 am
despite the fact that the world needs piece piece is rarely talked about. and those a talk about it or even stigmatized and criticized. this unverified amateur video circulating on social media reportedly shows ukrainian authorities trying to force a middle aged ethnic hungarian man to join the army. plenty of similar footage to those as surface from across the ukraine. as he had steps up its efforts to draw more people into the military to compensate for heavy losses on the battlefield. we heard from local journalist angela fuzzy, who's those that only wealthy people can cross the border from ukraine into hungary, and ethnic minorities are being abducted to serve in the ukrainian army. these are not just stories on telegram, this is reality. the main problem is that it is no longer possible to leave ukraine from the territory of trans carpathia. it turns out only very rich people who pay millions can cross the border. this is probably the main reason why national
4:21 am
minorities have remained in the territory. they just couldn't leave the country and now ukrainians are taking every one they can get into the army. then, judging by the stories of the locals, then literally bank he had napped. they're forced to sign papers as if the voluntary joined the army. and this is unacceptable. i have many friends from the cow patty ants with whom i keep in touch. thanks to them. i get information. there are a lot of police and military in the settlements who enter cafe's apartments, houses, and take people away. i saw it with my own eyes, budapest, phase, hungary and his people have, quote, already paid a high price for the war in ukraine. australia think that hungary itself is not a party to the conflict on must focus on its own security, global policy research. george saw me when he says the oppression of hungarians in ukraine is strikingly similar to how kenneth has been treating ethnic russians. the man bow that the disposal of the key of government gets smaller and smaller,
4:22 am
and obviously the suffering enormous casualties then moves and so on. so yeah, they kind of basic to try and get everyone on boy, you know, the minority, you know, the elderly children, whatever whatever's available, they're going to try and push them to the front. but the persecution of the hungarian minority has suffered, such as you know, the ban on education and gary and the elimination of manifestations of on care in this such as the flag culture centers, everything, all that has been eliminated. but that's often what this post my down regime is about what they've been doing because i guarantee dissimilar to what they did to the russians. what the, in the case of the russians, they were more numerous and they enjoyed the. ready support of the, of the neighbor, which is russia. garinger not as numerous. and obviously
4:23 am
a longer is a very small country and a limit that what he can do for his fellow hungarian, ukraine's alleged push to use ethnic con gary ends as fresh blood for his war efforts. is another reason why budapest is insisting on peace talks between moscow and kenneth. hungary is foreign minister, has criticized his german counterparts, came to europe, is fighting a war against russia while also stating that some world powers are taking steps to drag out the conflict. budapest say that has no intention of getting involved on the neighboring croatia. doesn't want to join the fight either. it's president how sarcastically wished germany, good luck in winning a war against russia. this time around. the do you want us to go to war? the german foreign minister says we must be united because we are at war with russia. i didn't know about that. maybe germany is at war with russia again. good luck to them. they will do better than 70 years ago. washington has
4:24 am
declined to comment about whether ammunition it's applying to ukraine includes depleted uranium. russia has warned that if the west is actually providing any kind of uranium and armaments, it could be considered a dirty bomb with the west responsible for the ceiling consequences. the correspondent steve sweeney has the story. ukraine could be set to receive deadly radio at to weapons in the west. as part of the latest surge of weaponry in the nighttime proxy war and russia. moscow says it would consider such munitions. i dirty bomb warning, western sponsors of calves war machine against encouraging nuclear provocations of black bough while promising a severe response. we know that lipper 2 tanks, as well as bradley and martyr armored fighting vehicles can use to pleaded uranium shells, which can contaminate terrain just like it happened in yugoslavia and iraq. if keith were to be supplied with such munitions for the use in western heavy military
4:25 am
hardware, we would regarded as the use of dirty and clear bombs against russia. with all the consequences that entails washington has refused to rule out supplying care with depleted uranium. as part of its tank in a package speaking during a white house press conference, an unnamed senior government official wouldn't be drawn on the issue as the reporter noted, firing these radioactive rounds is part of what makes them the tank killer. that pentagon officials called them the administration official who responded declined to answer saying, i'm not going to get into the technical specifics depleted uranium is exceptionally hauled and is able to penetrate alma targets and to reinforce that potential targets like tanks against that and we fire. but it is also i toxic radioactive hazard. nato's use of depleted uranium during the military alliance is 1999 on baldwin of yugoslavia. so thousands poisoned with many dying from cancer on other
4:26 am
related health issues leading to the alliance, being sued by, by serving the survivors. i'm italian soldiers deployed there, of which nearly $400.00 have died. and 7500 having poisoned by depleted uranium is use in the iraqi town of fallujah, left a toxic legacy. children born with birth defects, a spike in kansas diseases and miscarriages. official iraqi government statistics show that prior to the outbreak of the 1st gulf war in 1991, the rate of cancer cases in iraq was 40 out of 100000 people. by 995, it had increased to 800 out of 100000 people. yet, despite this nice ho, britain on the united states have lobbied hard for the continued use of depleted uranium on the battlefield. nato's decision for an information offensive was reached at a meeting today by ambassadors of nato's 19 member states. participants described
4:27 am
the talks is unusually stormy. please from italy, germany, greece and norway for the western military alliance to take the munitions out of its arsenals, were firmly rejected by the united states. britain and france. legally use a depleted uranium in conflict is a gray area and not covered by conventions or treaties that restrict the use of chemical or nuclear weapons. but britain and the u. s. remain the only nations to have admitted to using depleted uranium in conflict and will clearly see no objection to the use of the deadly weapon and ukraine. u. k. policy is that depleted uranium. munitions can be used in weapons because it would be wrong to deny our armed forces illegitimate and effective capability that can help them achieve their objectives as quickly and safely as possible. claims of serious health and environmental effects by very small number of people attract media attention, but are disputed by most scientists and international agencies. whether other countries used to munitions or not as a matter for them. on the tongue being sent to you crying, the leopard,

the bradley fighting vehicle, the abrams on the challenger to oh, capable of firing the deadly payload. it seems, washington could deploy the same tactics and ukraine. i'm to hell with the consequences may thank their company or not he international this sunday will be back in 30 minutes with more see them. ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is on a very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time to sit down and talk
