12:05 pm
they're simply how i'm telling you to do the battle for back. what has been utterly savage. it has claimed thousands, if not tens of thousands of ukrainian troops killed endangered. rare sleeps from ukrainian journalists and troops paint a terrible picture. oh alice, i spent people who transport the dead and wounded out of back much, and they told me that according to their estimates and unprepared ukraine in fight to survive in backward for only 4 hours on the front line. yes. that's a very negative statistic. i think they survive longer in zappa rogia than yet. can le ganske russian forces are pushing forward slowly but surely. ah, with

these is the 2 s for 2 lip, a 240 millimeter mortar used to level fortifications, a garage rewards with blue, with the thought, ah, they may be huge and they certainly are. but they function much like their smaller cousins and those are read regular more does cell mine is launched out of the tube flies in an arc and lands on target with the ammunition that they're using now are those mines are rocket assisted, meaning that they can cover much greater distances,
12:07 pm
ah, it is somewhat rare. see through a v, i see 2 of these guns falling together. one is usually pretty enough. mm. but it's sort of teaching us to your nothing remains of the enemy's positions of the shot. this system fire strictly a major target and leave nothing ending. the 2 lip is just one of the weapons that ukrainian troops and nationalists are running from him. bar move and elsewhere. and every day, more weapons and vehicles arrive, rushes, military, industrial complex is in overdrive and key of understands time. he's not on its side more i guess v of r t. logan squeezen. all heavy fighting has been taking place or on the ton of

marine cat. in dawn bass in the face of was said to be intense resistance. moscow forces say they have captured at 10 ukrainian soldiers, r t. a spoken exclusively to some of the russian troops fighting on the front lines and a warning you may find some of the following images disturb ah, the intensity of the battle was very focused compared to the battles in the city of papa. now, here, mary inca. this struction is much more serious if you look closely here. almost every house is destroyed. ah, susan didn't need it. brussels. in fact, the ukrainian forces dumped a lot of their colleagues here and left them. we always pull out the dead soldiers,
12:09 pm
liam, for ukrainian soldiers. a dead soldier means nothing to hold up. they left him and he is still lying here unmarried. inca rios underscore. the letter moved from a dog of whom minimally the breads for 6 days was stormed. some animus position was if that was the most difficult of those, that there was an enemy sniper and you agree and our man was killed. will you will . we covered the area with the machine, gun and allies on the right house and destroying the enemy and taking their comrades into it. and so within an hour or 2 junior, we collected our dead and we do not leave our own who either wounded nor killed. loosen you fortunately you would, you give up rarely and only in extreme cases when their commander or another commander of the stronghold simply runs away. let us leave them. when we took prisoners, we tried to send a request ourselves in exchange them for our fighters, but it was useless. they didn't care, but still they do have reasonable people. apparently,
12:10 pm
when they understand there are no options except when we recently took 5 prisoners and reasoning came to them. well, as the themself said, the commander ran away, but they stayed. either they make a panic decision on their own and sit at a strong point into the last soldier. and then that soldier runs away and leaves behind the bodies where they have a squad behind the lines that does not allow its soldiers to retreat. in any case, they fight to the last soldier, ukrainian soldiers whose drugs after which they cannot sleep or eat for 3 days. how many times it happened that we threw grenades and the infantry took direct hits to their hands to their legs and they continued to resist. i think it's impossible to do this without being drugged. usually personally, i think they definitely use narcotics. it is because no sane person is capable of this turkey has been struck by a nother series of earthquakes just the day after
12:11 pm
a magnitude $7.00 event shook the country and rot havoc in the nation and neighboring syria, turkish president, ridge up tiber. tuan described him as the region strongest or quick in almost a century. so far, the latest numbers have confirmed more than 5000 people are dead. the following footage is from one of the areas hardest hit. you may find some images in it, disturbing anita with
12:12 pm
or elderly residents from a nursing home or forced to flee into the freezing cold as the facility was heavily damaged. with the outside temperature, a run 0 degrees celsius. this flooded shows them and others exposed to the elements as we can see there with very little warm clothing. images are also circulating on social media, showing people in tears as they waits, news about their loved ones in affected areas. ah, [000:00:00;00] with them they have torn my lot,
12:13 pm
12:14 pm
they're still under the rubble. we hear their voices, they're still alive. there's no way to get them out. there's no machinery, there's a, i'm not in a mean i grandson is 18 months, so please help them please. we can hear them have not got any news from them since the morning. please, there were the 12th floor. we can't reach my family, my grandson. ah, this is gina. will this moment just after a building collapse was filmed by a journalist during
12:15 pm
a live broadcast in southeastern, trickier many videos circulating on line show, large residential buildings, toppling in the country with resonate, forced to flee their homes during the mass of quakes upsetting footages. net that really speaks for itself. when you see this earlier, my colleague, rory sushi, spoke with turkish geologists, the gel shan viewer, who commented on reports that the country has shifted 3 meters and the upheaval rope. there is a local shift for about 3 meters, but that doesn't mean the whole of turkey shifted to earthquakes rather work. busy by 2 fault, one of them is a continuation of the dead sea transform fault that comes from israel. in fact, it comes from the red sea. it goes through gulf of october, while the ariba dead sea, and that is through galley into lebanon, and from lebanon through the syrian coastal areas. it comes to jackie to what i and
12:16 pm
then veers slightly to the east to join the east anatoly in fault. but when he drives the east anatolia folk and other folk, the exec felt joy exit the earthquake activated these 2 faults. and these 2 folds join at the common mirage triple junction, where they create a legal basis. usually with such earthquakes, that is a big aftershock. that is why magnitude lower than the big shock. and that can come the next day, a few days later and in one infected come or it can come in 6 months. so one has to be really prepared for these things. you have to monitor them very carefully. look at the distribution of the aftershocks. we have to have a sort of earthquake town built as quickly as possible because it's very cold there . now, a lot of people will die if they don't do that. there's
12:17 pm
a problem with food. there's a problem with water. there's a problem with heating. and unfortunately, the organization has not been exemplary. it hasn't been exemplary, but again, this is, this is the worst set of quakes in a 100 years as, as we understand. yes. yes. but, you know, turkey should have been prepared for this. you know, people who, including me, have been saying that these things will come and hit turkey. well, as we understand her turkey is getting a lot of help now from the international community. but the people we've spoken to in syria as saying that they're having a difficult time getting aid from the international community simply to you to weston sanctions. i mean, don't you think politics should be pushed aside in the wake of such a? i mean, i sang shoes under these circumstances are silly. they should stop immediately. they, they had similar damage. they had similar numbers of people dying. no, i mean i cannot understand, not helping people that have been hit through no fault of their own.
12:18 pm
this is nature's doing well, at least 10 turkish provinces have been impacted and the tremors could be felt 100th of kilometers away. as we mentioned, among the countries affected, neighboring syria, already crippled by years of conflict, it's suffered must have devastation when seismic shock slammed. it's northern regions lessons. i took a closer look at the extent of the damage on the numbers. really are hard wing so far over 4500 that have been confirmed in turkey with some 26000 people injured. while syrian authorities have reported more than $800.00 killed there. and again, the numbers don't get smaller. $1400.00 hurt to the city of a level near the turkish border was one of the areas most effected in syria. residents were forced to flee their homes and have been gathering up shelters where
12:19 pm
they are being provided with necessary accommodations. the facilities were chosen because they're far from toll buildings. as resident fear, there could be further collapsing structures. we heard from some of those people who've been temporarily re housed. they've been sharing their terrifying experiences on the back. now, who could feel the ass moving under us like windmills and shaking was getting stronger and stronger. all the things in the house were fooling. we could not get ourselves together. we didn't know what to do and at the lease, people slept from their homes. and we decided to come to this comment. this is their will area and there are no tall buildings there. we went out to the street to see all the people standing there. they were in a disastrous condition. hi leon. alack that was there more than 750 people in the convent. we're providing all we can for these families. we give them breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as providing heating and bathrooms, and the most important thing for them, which is safety. because, well,
12:20 pm
an important aspect surrounding all this of syria tries to cope with the aftermath of the devastating earthquakes. washington has refused to lift sanctions against the middle eastern country. the u. s. state department spokesperson recently deflected a question about it's policy saying the syrian government is to blame for the disastrous situation. their. i don't reach out nothing in government. they aren't. are they going to run the sh at your operation or 8 operations? and so it would be a great gesture and elijah, show it to sort of lift the sanctions and basically, you know, southern candidacy. it would be quite ironic if not even counterproductive for us to reach out to a government that has brutalized its people over the course of a dozen years. now. gassy, ma'am, slaughtering them irresponsible for much suffering that they've endured. human rights groups have warned that western sanctions,
12:21 pm
particularly from the u. s. are blocking aid from getting into syria after the disaster. media outlets of reported, the transport companies are hesitant to make deliveries to the country. jew to risk of punishment from washington. a local reporter from syria we spoke to believe the west is ignoring the humanitarian situation in the country on the refusal to lift sanctions. that's a prime example less than confess. continue to impose those sanctions. those sanctions, not just now, but even during the years of for prevent the syrians from getting there a basic need. for example, if, if the syrian government wanted to get some medicine and medical supplies for the country, the central bank of syria will not be able to make any transaction as a result of the sanction. this is just one example of what those sanctions have been doing. an effect, how would they have been affecting the lives of the syrian people, the u. s. and western countries in general, do not care about history and people's about the lives of the syrian. how can you, how can
12:22 pm
n syrian civilian or individual here believe that the u. s. cares about syrian people while the us itself and the us listen killed, hundreds of syrians doing the crisis. an air ride on syria, destroyed houses, the u. s. looting resources the u. s, dividing the country by occupying parts in the north and the north east and giving that oil some of that oil to the so called threads in the product courses. former us president donald from said you said we're keeping the oil, we're not allowing the government to get that oil. so those statements, and those act by the united states is a clear proof that they do not hear about the humanitarian situation and fight syria. all they want is to implement their agenda over here. they want their political interests to be achieved. they want the conferences to, to stay divided the end of the day. they don't care, they do what they want to do. and even if it's at the expense of syrians live,
12:23 pm
ok to another over a headline stories today, molly foreign minister has welcomed his russian counterparts or lover off to the west african country. the top diplomat said a wide field of cooperation is there is to cultivate covering economic, agricultural and military spheres. the 1000000 minister also said russian military presence in the nation was a comma, cose request and had help come back terror in the region r t. francis bureau guffman picked up the story. it isn't gonna go that they had to rush in diplomacy. sir. gala voss has continued his toe of african, the middle east, after reading late at night in the 1000000 capital following his visit to baghdad. the russian foreign minister has now met with his 1000000 counterparts, abdulla job and the 1000000 transitional president. i see me good luck. and the heart of the talks is bilateral corporation with other key issues on the agenda at the regional and international level. particular attention was played to russian deliveries a weed,
12:24 pm
fertilizes and petroleum products to the west african country. regardless of producers, we agreed to continue our joint efforts to expand our ties and trade in the economic and investment spheres. we've decided that now we'll focus on exploring and mining minerals and developing roo infrastructure and agricultural development . relation between russian milli have been friendly since of your time. but to day russian diplomacy considers raising the level of bilateral corporation in the political sphere as well as for economic security. and humanitarian issues must go in by microshare, a similar vision for the creation of the multiple or world architecture and refuse to comply with the policy of western dick, dart and blackmail levy. give gifts. when you go to new york, susan, we agreed that we do indeed see negative responses by western states too. these are our cooperation processes. it's so one of the cases where we see the west,
12:25 pm
despising the principle of the sovereign equality of state and trying to impose double standards on its former colonies. mister minister, we've been looking forward to seeing you for a long time, and i think your visit is really what malay and people wanted to see. mister minister, we decided to strengthen our cooperation with russia. and thus we're showing that we're not going to make any excuses for the partners that we are choosing. russian president vladimir putin spoke with his 1000000 counter, but assume you greater by telephone twice. last year, the 1000000 president notably agreed to go to a 2nd. russia, africa summit to take place next july. saint petersburg, the head of money and diplomacy de la, has already visited russia twice in the past 2 years in november, 2021. and in may 2022, regarding russian diploma teacher gala visit to my lee the new opportunity to strengthen bilateral corporation. at least 4 people have been killed after
12:26 pm
a residential building collapse this tuesday in the west of russia. the incident happened in the city of your frame off in the tula region. local authorities say a gas explosion is the likely cause. 3 other people were reportedly injured in the bluff which destroyed each apartment. ukraine's president house find themselves singing from a very different song sheets. when it comes to italian music festival, la mer zalinski was to to give a video address to the submarine lo festival. but mounting controversy about his appearance, i've seen him polite with more and the reasons behind it. here's our t contributor, rachel morrison. just to give you an idea, the st ramos song festival is what gave rise to euro vision. it's widely regarded as the longest running music contest in the world. and this year's edition started on tuesday and it runs through saturday. but now we're hearing about the pressure that the organizers and broadcaster have been under to let zalinski be men and take
12:27 pm
center stage. zalinski, the president will not send a video but a text with regard to preventative control. i think it's complicated to censure. president controls related to the airing of a television program to view everything before it goes on air. i smile at the idea of censorship. so as long as he has been crashing the velvet rope at various other major entertainment events via pre taped speeches, most recently i last weekend's grammy awards, where he urged musicians to speak out in supportive keith. because as everyone knows, hollywood is full of highly informed people, without recently no opinions who need to be prodded very aggressively to speak their minds. there is talk of the san ramon festival organizers, perhaps letting zalinski speak on the final night saturday night. but they've been faced with some blow back from prominent italian political figures. i will give you these go there. will she read? i love italian songs, zalinski. i don't know how he sings. i have other preferences. if i have time to
12:28 pm
watch, right? you know, it will be to listen to songs, not to listen to anything else. as a private citizen who pays his license fee. however, i would prefer that it didn't go ahead. i feel that on zalinski side, there is a desire for visibility, which disturbs me. there's a conflict. san ramo, does not seem like the right context for me. so last month at the golden globe awards hollywood celebrities listen to zalinski responded conflict in between their sips of champagne and mouthfuls of icelandic salmon. they're just so completely out of touch with the average person that ratings have plummeted. and that's pretty much the same as ratings for the rest of these old establishment award shows. people just aren't tuning in any more to listen to a bunch of hollywood left this preach and tell them how to live. so in that context, it's really not the best look for zalinski to constantly be looking to hitch his wagon to that. failing out of touch, holly, weird scene,
12:29 pm
a speaking of weird last year, zalinski spoke at the cannes film festival, here in france, but was denied a spy at last year's oscars host. amy schumer said at the time that quote, i think it's a great opportunity to at least comment on a couple of things. i have some jokes that kind of highlight the sort of current condition. i mean, there are just so many awful things happening that it seems hard to focus on which one. yeah, there's a lot of other misery and war in the world to make jokes of, i guess she saying, so why is zalinski the only one allowed to constantly hog the spotlight at these things, but by the way, oscar winner sean penn did give zalinski one of his own academy awards for best actor takes one to know and i guess fifo refused to bow to pressure to let zalinski speak at the world cup football final last december fee for president johnny infant tino said quote,
12:30 pm
those fans and the billions watching on tv they have their own problems, they just want to watch $9.00 your 120 minutes without having to think about any thing, but just enjoying a little moment of pleasure. enjoy. and now italian citizens are echoing that sentiment in objecting to zalinski san ramo appearance, also dummy dickens. dowdy zalinski, but i'm totally against the zalinski thing because russia hasn't done anything wrong to me. neither has ukraine is to us war against the rest of the world. because we who are in favor of peace have to spend a lot of money and expensive surveillance. and honest workers to make war and destruction of india that atom eat. so send us a little and i've always been against sending weapons because they're always secondary roads to find and follow can. we can invest 500000000 in italy for other things. we have many problems, america and all the other states that send to arms have no problem because they have them, their policy is war mongering and always has been. we have to stay out of it.
