when i think my guess and america, and i want to thank our viewers for watching us here at ortiz the next time, remember, ah, a u. s. is recruiting and training is limited terrorists, and it's based in syria to commit the tax on russia and neighboring state. that's according to russia's foreign intelligence service. i would most position hold the russian forces inside the village of mahdi and archie follows russian troops as they advanced in a battle for one of the keys ukrainian strongholds outside done yet nothing ruled out. that's the comment of the u. s. air force official on whether the mysterious object shot down in canada overnight would be extra terrestrial. and ethiopia was

torn apart by tension between a split orthodox church and a government backing a splinter group of bishops with broadcasting lines direct my studios in moscow. this is our international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad with the u. s. is recruiting islamic state and al qaeda affiliated militants to conduct the terror attacks in russia and neighboring states . the militants are reported leaping, trained at the u. s. based in syria, that's according to russia. intelligence service are used on quarter has more us is apparently trying specifically to attract militants and separatists from central asia as well as the caucuses. and just last month, 60 of these terrorists, with fighting experience in the middle east, were selected for training. according to the intelligence report they've been going through an expedited training program on the all toms u. s. military base in syria where they're learning how to create and deploy,

improvised explosive devices as well as carry out sabotaged operations. so, based on this new information, russia's foreign intelligence service has said that washington is on par with terrorist organizations. we see the us security forces losing all moral principles, being obsessed with the insane idea of bleeding russia dry. washington strategists consider appropriate direct use of terrorists, thought she, they're dirty goals. such actions plays watching the on pair was the largest international terrorist groups. this report also says that these terrorists are planning to enter russia and other former soviet states in small groups. they're apparently being tasked with carrying out terrorist attacks against diplomats government workers, police officers, and the military. so this is no doubt startling, new information that could risk further escalation of already high tensions between moscow and washington. air defense systems have intercepted

a ukrainian tortuga you missile and marble that's according to russian media. citing the cities commanders office following an explosion reported earlier. as fighting continues the russian defense ministry published a video of paratroopers in combat on the front line. official said more than 250 ukranian soldiers were killed in battles near done yet. sc russian troops continue to storm. a major ukrainian stronghold on the outskirts of the city was done of course. so right now we are entering the small village. smarty, just outside of that, we have to do it at night because it is simply too dangerous to take this road during the day that the korean forces are so close already. we can see the flashes of their artillery firing towards the russian positions. under the cover of darkness we had towards the troops living quarters on the front line, we wake up to a surreal landscape and appeared to me to desolation and death. while this is

marian car and with the 1st rays of sunshine, the extent of the damage dealt to this little village. while it becomes obvious and it is close to a 100 percent, you can see that all around us so far. we haven't seen a single building that comes to even close as to being intact or more or less intact the fighting continued throughout the night, although it's intense that he did die down did receive the little bit compared to what happens here during the day. while martin k is also a graveyard for nato made machines and vehicles like this, a p. c that was supplied to ukraine by house, trailer size is unchanging here. shibel, building frames, scaffolding and breaks from torn apart houses to this is the forward most position of the russian forces inside the village of marine car,

basically between us and crane enforces. there's only about $3.00 to $400.00 me to the soldiers in this particular position. and this machine gun to the left of me is meant to stop any sort of advancement that gradient might attempt both day and night. recently to give you an idea as to how close quarters the fighting here is. the former building of the local library is right now occupied by both russians and ukrainians. one section is under the russian control, and the other one is out of ukrainian. and now both sides have drawn reinforcements to you could out and see who remains. in control of this building, we hear the rule of 2 engines, a few 100 meters away, a russian tank and an infantry fighting vehicle. they open fire at a point blank range or

washing seats console, about 2 thirds of the village cave had 8 years to prepare defences here and wasted no time operated by the density of battles as heavy ukraine is pulling up reserves and we're grinding them down with artillery then him, he has taken massive losses and a lot of them are refusing to fight. as far as i've heard, there's a crack in national battalion behind them. the enemy is well prepared there, holding fortified positions. ukraine staunch resistance here is not driven by principle by cold military tactics. losing this seemingly anonymous village means that russian forces will flank keeps other frontline garrisons to the north. but there's no doubt among soldiers here soon. they'll march on hamish down of reporting from the dumbass r t. with the situation remaining tense on the battle, ground ukrainian president vladimir lensky,

took the opportunity to once again proudly post a photo on his social media featuring a ukrainian soldier wearing insignia resembling that used by nazi germany in a screenshot of the post where the ukrainian leader calls on his citizens to unite . you can see a soldier sporting a hate evoking patch on his shoulder, receiving hundreds of likes within a matter of hours. this is not the 1st time. lensky has posted photos with similar symbols in another picture which has since been deleted. one of the president's body guards was also seen wearing the same nancy era emblem. so one ski has since gone on the defensive, claiming that such narratives actually contradict his country's history. the ukraine on your news. and ukraine in real life are 2 completely different countries . and the main difference between them is ours is real. you are told we are nazis, but could have people who lost more than a 1000000 lives in the battle against naziism support naziism. the reality,

however, seems to be in stark contrast with the president claims. as waves of radical far right protests swept ukraine since the 2014 made on who were many thousands of people rallying displayed, not the arrows symbols your political analyst john mark doogan says post with apparent nazi emblems repeatedly appearing on the ukrainian leaders social media isn't something western outlets focus on when they don't have a p r person to review every single thing that they are doing? we are seeing this type of symbolism use consistently. how could you pull something like that, knowing what it is. you know, the western media was talking about this in 2019, and 2021 when congress designated the as off battalion as an extremist terrorist organization. but now they are nowhere to be seen because it conflicts with the story that the american government wants the people to,

you know, half probably don't know what the symbolism mean. and the other one is it's not in their interest to speak about such things, you know, they're not allowed to buy their corporate masters more than 33000 people have died in turkey and syria after devastating earthquakes hit the countries the u. n. fears this number could eventually surpass $50000.00 and the economic repercussions of the earthquake are estimated to be as high as $84000000000.00 in turkey mass. as the countries authorities have reportedly targeted dozens of contractors involved in the construction of the many clumps buildings, criminal investigations have already been launched in some provinces. we hear from those whose lives have been thrown into chaos. i've earthquakes. identify those who have the means are leaving. we are poor. it's true. the government says go live there a month or 2. how can i leave my home? my fields are here. this is my home. how can i leave it behind?

in that drama, i lost my brother, my 2 nieces and nephews, my sister in law. do you see people are looking for transportation? everyone is wandering around our money. our vehicles are all gone. everything is gone. i can go on the whole world, let the syrian people down. if this destruction was in europe or a foreign country, the whole world would have gathered to rescue those killed. we are displaced amid the disaster. many countries around the world have sent aid to turkey and syria, including those with their own struggles to deal with our t contributor use of jelly visits, one of the humanitarian centers in iran. if one is sending another batch of humanitarian aid to turkey to assist the quake ravished country during this dire situation, iran roads cross and says, the shipment consists of 55 tons of relief supplies. i don't know if it's been several days that were on alerts in the around rid kristen. society, it is commenced by developing camps for the quake head zone in turkey. what's

happening today's that were loading relief items, including blankets, tense, medical and hygiene items. we're doing the loading by the arrangements with aaron's army and the slavic republic of iran air force. and all the relief items and relief forces will be dispatched to the quake head zone and turkey from 4 provinces of the country. one has its own economic woes to worry about due to the enormous number of he was sanctions in the country. it was red cross and says, such restrictions will not stop the country from extending a helping hand to both turkey and syria apart from its own economic crisis. iran has itself been hit with a powerful earthquake and its northeastern city of hoya. however, the red cross and says the scope of its activities knows no boundaries with as you know, sending relief items and humanitarian aid has faced severe difficulties because of the sanctions on syria. but given our humanitarian duty,

we at ron's red kristen society since a 10 members specialized team by ron's relief and risk organization. and to ron's quick response teams to aleppo, syria on the 1st day of the incidence. the organization is also dispatching relief items. it is expected that other countries, whether european or other western take into account the humanitarian aspects more by refraining from sanctions, and instead care more about the injured people and the difficult situation in syria . they should pay more attention to the humanitarian aspects rather than political ones. like iran, lebanon too, has not sat on its hands, despond. scores of its own domestic problems. beirut has played its part in helping syria and turkey, with their relief efforts. this is wildly united nations says some 2000000 people in lebanon are facing food insecurity. not to mention the fact that the country is also targeted by western sanctions. by beirut says it's humanitarian gestures will not be hampered. and they said, your monkey,

humanitarian corporation knows no boundaries, and humanitarian affairs can all be shackled, well, drafted the u. s. c's reg laid down its conditions and its completions, and will lebanon, as a government and a political team are fully aware of the files related to the seas erect. but this will not stand in the way of all efforts in syria, but no matter what the bill rose, which has been under sanctions for more than a decade, is one of the major players in humanitarian operations underway. the affected areas minsk has dispatched an 8 cargo to syria, wink more than $25.00 tons. but when it comes to relief from the west, it seems that it's all about who is under the rubble. in the early days after the deadly tremor the us on it, so i skipped mom about the catastrophic situation in syria and how there sanctions blocked vital aid from reaching the affected people. there. while you are says it is only temporarily suspended. it's crippling sanctions on syria to help the flow

of humanitarian aid to which the nation iranian belief authority say that he was his actions are too little and too late to run at it. there is no time for publicizing the humanitarian situation, and everyone must return to help reduce the suffering of those in syria and turkey . use of generally r t wrong. the commander of chat is not group has survived an assassination attempt that's according to rums on could get off the head of the chechen republic. according to the republics leader, the general received an envelope containing a poisonous substance. however, after noticing an unusual smell emitting from the paper he along with aids immediately took preventative measures. he is currently in the hospital under observation, while investigators look into the origins of the attacks. ah, the u. s. military has shot down another, unidentified object flying over canada. that's after

a series of us attacks on mysterious aerial bodies. over the past week, the u. s. air force general says extra terrestrial activity hasn't been excluded. when journalists asked him about the possible alien origin of the object, i lead the intel community and the counter intelligence community figure that out. i haven't throw out anything. at this point, we continue to says every threat or potential threat unknown. that approaches north america with an attempt to identify it. the object was tracked over night and then shot down by us jet on jo biden's orders over the canadian territory with 2 other similar bodies taken down over alaska and yukon over the weekend. us officials say the objects did not pose any threat but are keeping a close eye on the countries aerospace, in light of the recent incident with a chinese balloon. china also reported a mysterious object spotted over the yellow c i from on the suit in crosswise to

brian at berlin, who's a former marine and geopolitical analyst. interesting to get your take on this one . it's kind of bizarre, of course. so we've seen the recent spike and reports about an identified aerial objects shot down by the us military. what can you say about the timing of these incidents and why now? it's very strange. it follows. suppose the chinese spy balloon, that the u. s. accused china of sending over the united states and accuse china using to, to spy on the us. the whole story made no sense, no evidence was produced and provided to the public. and now we have these incidents. they're not telling us any information at all about them. they're not linking them to china, but they know that the public will link and their own minds to china. and it is creating hysteria, paranoia, and insecurity across the population. anyone paying attention to this news?

well, you bring a but bring up a good point about the lack of transparency here. what kind of an identified objects do you think it could be? and more importantly, why are they so unwilling to tell the public any information? it's really hard to even speculate what these could possibly be, weather balloons, drones, who knows if anybody's guess what's most concerning is they're acting as if they don't know. it's not that they're not disclosing if they're, they're claiming they don't even know what it is. so they're shooting things down out of the sky without even knowing what they are. and actually not even knowing whether it's safe to shoot them out of the sky or not. i have not seen the united states act in such a bizarre way. it is a reflection of growing insecurity and incompetence at all levels of the us government and military. let's pivot a little bit to the budget biden is said to propose the biggest defense budget and

us history. they already spend a fortune on the military. do you think that it might spark public discontent given the current economic crisis in the country? absolutely. and so where we're watching the united states cook up provocations with ra further escalations with russia, with china, with iran. and all of this is to create fear and anger and hatred among the american publican justify a bigger budget for the military. despite the fact that the united states desperately needs to invest domestically and more and more people are starting to realize that despite the distractions, instead of a distraction, do you think it might be a tool to the use to persuade the taxpayer that their money is flowing? into us national security investments and not into the pockets of let's say you, cranium, politicians. well, i would feel much more confident if the military seems like they knew what they were doing, but the fact that they are claiming they don't even know what these objects are yet

. and considering how big the us military budget already is bigger than the next several countries combine, including russia and china combined. the fact that they don't know what this is, seems to tell me that it just giving them more money isn't going to improve these seemingly lacking capabilities. right. brian politic, former us marine and geo political analyst. very interesting to hear your thoughts . we're gonna have to watch this once the output is out. thank you. all right, now, meanwhile, the bind administration has added 6 chinese entities to an export blacklist, claiming that they are linked to china's military modernization efforts and surveillance activities that threaten the u. s. and its allies, that's after chinese officials stated that a balloon recently shot down by washington over suspicions that it was used for surveillance was actually a weather research station. the incident led to a spike in anti chinese rhetoric, with several companies getting sanctioned over alleged links to the balloon. of the

matter of chinese nationals, acquiring american agricultural land has been a recent point of tension in the u. s. after officials in grand forks voted to strike down a chinese companies proposed cornmeal as its land is located close to the u. s. air force base, a home to top secret drone technology of the race and south dakota is host to the latest american strategic b 21 bomber, one capable of carrying a nuclear weapon. artist. caleb martin has more it would have been a $700000000.00 investment in the community with over $700.00 jobs directly or indirectly created. the local mayor was all for it, but then the tide shifted. motion carries anonymously. 6 ah

now usually when crowds are chanting you as a and america 1st, they want more american jobs. however, there is an exception. that's when those jobs come from a chinese company. fu fang usa already owns the land, but the proposal for breaking ground on a new facility for processing corn was voted down. that's after high ranking members of the u. s. air force got involved. now, even though they had no real authority to close the facility, the air force members said that it was a threat to national security because it was roughly 12 miles away from an air force base. the department's view is unambiguous. the proposed project presents a significant threat to national security with both near and long term risks of significant impacts to our operations in the area. now the allegation goes that essentially if a company based in china owns

a facility were processing agricultural crops, they may turn it into a center for spying. and computer hacking the opponents of the base did not exactly explain how this was going to work, but their logic seemed good enough for the locals. this fits a whole pattern of sino phobia, sweeping across the united states that are all employees are already banned from using the app known as tick tock on federal government devices. and state governments are following suit into. there is a law proposed preventing chinese citizens from buying any land or even a home for living in. now there are many communities across the united states that are desperate for investment. they want companies to come in and create jobs, increase the tax revenue, get the rust belt rolling again. chinese investment in the united states is not small and it's growing. but it seems pretty clear that there is a section of the u. s. military establishment. that is saying this must stop,

much like the weather monitoring device that they label they spy balloon. they are saying that the inflow of chinese companies to america must be popped before it gets any bigger. ok, with martha r. c. new york. on the ethiopian, the orthodox church has decided to delay a plan to demonstration, following government concessions amid a looming internal split. really the government reacted harshly to church gatherings, temporarily shutting down access to social media for locals. our teeth correspondent, carrasco. the toddler brings more details. city 7 people have lost their lives over the last week through various protests and some of them in the or all me or region of the country. the church had a problem. it has the senate, which is the counsel of the church which operates on the blessings of his holiness,

the leader with matthias and 3 of those bishops in the castle, went rogue and decided to ordain some 26 bishops in the earlier region. the rebel bishop claimed that the church is actually discriminating against the people of or only, or in a sense that the language itself and the culture is not included in the church, therefore, is not as diverse or as broad as it can be. the church has subsequently excommunicated those bishops and refused to recognize that while the government, on the other hand speaks about 2 groups coming together to find the way in the middle and the churches saying that they are new to groups. there's just the church and the bishops who have been excommunicated. part of the problem, of course, is how the abbey ultimate government has handled some of the churches concerns if you will. the church wanted to have a peaceful demonstration on sunday yesterday to voice it. this made without government has handle this but also how government continues to. 2 neglect some of

the people there and not address the concerns of the church, which is the fact that they feel they've been infiltrated by people who effectively work for the government. and they just masquerading as men and women of the clergy . now that has not really gone down well with i'd be ultimate government who quickly upon return from a working visit in italy and france, came back and someone did security apparatus in its entirety and meant to figure out a way to get out from this protest without necessarily causing any dismay, he said that it presents the hum because the church has been infiltrated enemies of if the o b a while the church, on the other hand, if they have a right to peacefully protest and the government must remove its dugeon from its clergy, israeli aircraft have launched a series of airstrikes on the ledge to mos targets in palestinian territory.

the israeli army said the bombing was in response to saturdays rocket launched from gaza into israel. israel claims that the air strikes targeted an underground rocket manufacturing complex run by hamas. there were no immediate reports of casualties. meanwhile, israeli authorities have approved the construction of 9 jewish settlements and outposts in the palestinian territories following confrontations that claimed the lives of several israelis. now it's not the 1st time israel has claimed exclusive rights to palestinian land. residents of one occupied palestinian village are struggling to survive, as their homes are taken away to build a national park or chief mer. if notional reports this breath taken hilltop, lee was once enjoyed on a daily basis by the residents of the palestinian village of nabby. some will, but in 1971. these rarely authorities forced dozens of local families out and

demolished most of the villages houses to clear the area for a luxury jewish settlement throughout the survey. and as you had been noble in 97 to one, they demolished our neighbourhood. our house was next to the mosque. at 5 p. m. bulldozers and trucks. with the army came, they started evacuating people, seeking all the furniture we were like was going on. most of the displaced people fled abroad, unable to deal with their lives, been instantly turned upside down, but around a 100 stayed including a yard and his parents. despite being made homeless overnight. they sheltered in what was left of the village or moved in with their luckier neighbors. and this is how they've been living ever since. less than 500 meters away from the sight of their old, demolished homes. the views still exists and like the village itself, when plans for the luxury settlement where buried israel in 1995 declared these area and national park, meaning no people are supposed to leave here while any construction or even the

renovation of old buildings is banned. as a hammer or ha, maloney mar, i brought a container to leave in and they arrested me and put me in jail for 3 days in order to be released. i paid 9000 shackles to the court and the lord told me that next time i will be jailed for 3 years, people try to find ways to trick the authorities building in sacred or fencing off land with barrels, technically not construction. so no rules broken, which meant it couldn't be demolished, exhausted though they organized a number of protests. arrests followed among others too, or we had son were detained, others fled in fear of prosecution. o left with no future or hope with them. yeah, none of her persona, the jews want us to leave, but we were here 1st and will continue been here. i have no other choice, but staying here until the aboriginal in charla, the protest didn't change much. there was no sewage, streetlights, or road infrastructure in the village. no public buses come here. no one takes

their garbage away. there is one school and one grocery shop on wheels. both are initiatives by the people, but most importantly, local resident hat him tells me are the restrictions on movement. the separation wall cuts this place off from both the west bank. it is part of an israel, hatton points out jerusalem. and the holy alexa mosque in its old city, so close. but at the same time, so far, if you want to go under busier, it will be a problem. if i want to go to jerusalem, it's you? yes, forbidden. no, you can't. you have dog with alex and the big brother to go to work or work grandma, because of chic boyd's and the ducks road to our stool to go to rama, landed till we are in prison. no. the bitter irony locals are prevented from entering the national park that they are current homes are technically part of the science as it contains the remains of an ancient to roman road and olive oil pressing meals from the 1st temple period. no mention of the palestine house is

demolished in the 20th century. anyone can visit with a ticket, but nabby some will. residents can only enter during prayer time while locals are restricted to move around. their guests from outside have a hard time visiting 2 marriages, funerals, ramadan, celebrations, no matter what the occasion for a gathering would be. it is, is rarely authorities, then decide who is allowed to enter and who isn't. life here is, is very, very hard, but is hollow, but we are rooted to you. even. we have no surfaces here nor said vizier, over the heel as a bully. i will buy you new law nor force the ward. can me come that beetle? well, we asked the civil administration, israeli governing body to responsible for policy an affair is to clarify what the status of this place is. and most importantly, the people who live here despite the paper he's saying is not a residential area. we didn't hear back from them, miss blaze does not have one single.
