[000:00:00;00] hello, bob must protect its own existence with awe. would they think i should do is no use his name and be good in jail. it's amazing to me that how they fall in line. seymour hersh, the journalist behind the investigation into the u. s. is role in the north stream pipeline blasts reveals the pressure he's been facing by mainstream media to divulge his sources with ukranian, the city of art to almost widely known as bach root has been restricting civilian and press access since monday. that's according to the russian military. as its troops advanced toward this strategic point,
9:01 am
with the pool would most position the russian forces inside the village of money. and cub, archie follows russian troops as they advance in a battle for one of the keys, ukrainian stronghold outside. it's done yet with broadcasting land director more studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. now governments are good at tracking down. people who talk. that's the message from seymour hersh. the journalist behind a bombshell north stream blast investigation which ended up concluding that the us was behind the explosions in september, discussing his findings during a radio broadcast. he said he wouldn't reveal his sources despite media pressure. i think with the newspapers, particularly the german newspaper during asking me and, and you know,
9:02 am
the are times in the washer most just ignore me. what they want to really what they think i should do is, you know, use his name and jail. it's amazing to me that how, how they fall in my and my colleagues into the new york times, they do that. the one thing that governments good is tracking down people who are i, she's marina cassandra jones, me now in the cereals with more details. now marina, what else did we learn from this podcast? it seymour hersh or was so very nonchalant in their cell podcast interview. and he said that this is something that was out there all along and that it wasn't very hard to find. and all you had to do was a little bit of digging and he did just that, which is how he found his source. and once again with direct operational knowledge into how the us did it, how it planned are these attacks and how got rid of nodes from one n nordstrom to the pipelines. and he says that even though we're making a big deal out of this, he says he, yes, it is
9:03 am
a big deal. but in terms of finding out the information, all you had to do was search for it. it was out there. and of course, is under a lot of pressure to reveal his source even jokes at one point saying that this is his 1st and perhaps his last interview since the writing that article because he doesn't know what will happen. and if perhaps there will be some pressure on him. we've seen radar silencer, no pun intended, um regarding a headlines from mainstream media that has been barely anything. and when we do see mainstream media talking about the revelations in that bombshell article that he wrote, were seen, it twisted in the way russia wants answers. now regarding i, america's involvement in blowing up the blowing up the pipelines and again, this is not the russia wanton answers. it should be the world wants answers, the world needs to know what happened or for example, one of the articles they say once celebrates a journalist, seymour hersh, in the way,
9:04 am
trying to defame him not. but let's see what seymour hersh himself had to say regarding who the source was. it's not even a hard story to understand. the president of the united states and the under secretary of state, both said they were going to do it. there's something called the pipeline industry . there's an industry that makes people make american companies involved. they build pipelines around the world. to me. yes. yeah. you know, what happened? sima hurst, of course, talking about the fact that joe biden spoke about it openly. victoria newland spoke about it openly that pipelines get rid of them if need be, and that's what he's saying. and they did just that. and regarding he gave us seems to be give us a little hands about the pipeline industries. and also in that interview says it doesn't necessarily, his source doesn't necessarily have to be american. let's not forget that nato countries were involved in that even n o 2 companies knew that this was the implant,
9:05 am
they just couldn't talk about it. now, marina, you know, about north stream, i know about nurturing. we've been hearing about it for years, covering it here for years. but many people don't really know the full story. the background. can you tell us a little bit more about the background of the north stream projects and the revelations and how they've been handled since they've come out? of course, north seem gas pipelines were used to deliver a cheap russian gas to germany and see europe in general. and germany was receiving a substantial amount. now, nordstrom to which was finally completed was going to double the amount of cheap ross and gas flowing to germany. and of course to europe and america wanted to put an end to it and they needed to get rid of those pipelines. so as early as 2020 long joe biden authorized his national security advisor to come up with a team and find a way to we can rush defeat boots. and as i mentioned in that article, and what happened was that jake sullivan, the national security advisor, put together a team that involved the joint chiefs of staff, the cia,
9:06 am
the state and treasury department that had lots of top secret meetings right next to the white house and these are some of the details that see more hearse mentions in the article. that's what makes us think that this source is legitimate because there's some things that you wouldn't find unless you know that this is someone, as he says, will direct knowledge. all the operational planning, so some secret meetings and they find a way to do it. so us navy divers to be used. but when, and how do you do it? norway gives them the idea. hey, you can do it during the annual nato drills that we have every june. so u. s. navy divers, supposedly go down under and put the bombs and then they decide to detonate it at a later date using planes that drop a bully. and that's how it sets off using frequency, radio frequency, the sound. and it's done. certainly interesting. we know that the story is going to have future developments. 5,
9:07 am
certainly for sure. you'll stay in cost for us as it developed. yes. so now we're waiting to see what mainstream media has to say about it. finally, maybe we'll see some common certainly keeping track that. thank you for that. appreciate it. our ukranian forces are facing increasing pressure as russian troops advanced towards the strategic city of are almost also known as backward with a ukraine field commander, announcing that access for civilians and press to the embattled area would be restricted starting from monday for me to leave the street fighting continues in the suburbs of the eastern and southern parts of the city. the access of the billions will officially be closed, will at least so they promised it should have been done earlier, so it's not to endanger people. let's see, the crane currently controls only one road linking troops in are to almost with the rest of the army. according to media reports, they're now early. the head of the wagner group confirmed his fighters took control
9:08 am
of the village of class, and i go to a key foothold in the north, just 9 kilometers from show. most of the control of this settlement potentially papers the way for further advancement in the done. yes, we're public. as the situation on the battlefield intensifies and verify. the video circulating online shows a ukrainian soldier calling for key of to withdraw its troops from the embattled area really deal but get the boys out of bachman if it will be a repeat of ourselves, stole it, but bring out the boys. they have already made many appeals. why aren't you listening? do like it. when all boys die? take your son a wife to the positions and bach motives. let them take a stand there. you are murderous. what number you yon us, but conan editor in chief of m. v. media news online thinks the battle for bach mote is a key factor of the ukraine conflict. but what is the key do the where it dig into the region?
9:09 am
oh doris. people republicans does lobby, asked to cromwell doors, where everything started in 2040. of course, this is the main battle, what we see now. 2014, when this civil war in chris started and especially dear ago, went a claim of the russian attack. what happened was that 250000 nationalists was getting ready with the nato support to have back. and they started week later rush and made an intervention and came to help us here. we have lived every year and we haven't seen the truth in the western media at all. liberation of dawn. it is an important step forward because that the whole region of wealth are to most bottom would, of slavery us crime. of course, they are all reaches rich, molded for independence, which molded against the western bucket group in gearing 2014. so this is
9:10 am
a very mutual, very important, decisive moment for the russian world. meanwhile, air defense systems have intercepted a ukrainian tasco you missile and mario pl. that's according to russian media siding, the cities commanders office following an explosion reported earlier. now as fighting continues, the russian defense ministry published a video of paratroopers in combat on the front line. official say more than 250 ukranian soldiers were killed in battles near done yet. russian troops continued to storm, a major ukrainian stronghold on the outskirts of the city. as ortiz, he could have done of reports. so right now, we are entering the small village for mighty contest. outside of the nets, we have to do it at night because it is simply too dangerous to take this road during the day. in fact, 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
9:11 am
a surreal landscape and the pit 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 to more or less intact the fighting continued throughout the night, although it's intensity did die down. did receive a little bit compared to what happens here during the day. well, martin k is also a graveyard for nato made machines and vehicles like this a p. c. that was supply to ukraine by house trailer. wow. size is unchanging here. cbl building frames,
9:12 am
scaffolding and breaks from torn apart houses. this is the forward most position, all the russian forces inside the village of marian car, basically between us gradient forces, there's only about 3 to 400 me into the soldiers. this particular position of this machine gun to the left of me is meant to stop any sort of advancement that gradient might attempt both day and night. and basically 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 duke it out and see who remains in control of this building. or we hear the roar of 2 engines, a few 100 meters away, a russian tank and an infantry fighting vehicle. they open fire at
9:13 am
a point blank range or slushy seats console. about 2 thirds of the village cave had 8 years to prepare defences here and wasted no time. the density of battles is heavy. ukraine is pulling up reserves and were grinding them down with artillery. the enemy has taken massive losses and a lot of them are refusing to fight. as far as i've heard, there's a crack and national is battalion behind them. the enemy as well prepared, they're holding fortified positions. ukraine staunch resistance here is not driven by principle by cold military tactics. losing the 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
9:14 am
reporting from the dumbass, r t ah, the u. s. is recruiting islamic state and al qaeda affiliated militants to conduct terror attacks in russia and neighboring states. the militants are reportedly being trained at the u. s. based in syria, that's according to russia's intelligence service parties. don quarter has more u. s. 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 altov 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 u. s. security forces losing all moral
9:15 am
principles, being obsessed with the insanity of bleeding. russia dry. washington strategists consider appropriate to direct use of terrorist or achieve their dirty goals. such jackson's plays, washington own pair with the largest international terrors 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's. this is no doubt startling, new information that could risk further escalation of already high tensions between moscow and washington is really aircraft have launched a series of air strikes against alleged hamas targets on palestinian territory. the he was really army said that the bombing was in response to saturdays rocket launch from garza into israel
9:16 am

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 lucky neighbors. and this is how they have 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 baron israel, in 1995, declared this area and national park, meaning no people are supposed to leave here. while any construction or even renovation of old buildings is banned. as a hammer or hammer only 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 $9000.00 shackles to the court and the lord told me that
9:18 am
next time i will be jail for 3 years. people try to find ways to trick the authorities building in secret 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 for them. yeah, none of harper santa the just 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 is 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 residents hat him tells me are the restrictions on movement. the separation
9:19 am
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 were 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 in ramallah because of chic boyd's and the ducks road to our stool. to go to rama land 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 their science as it contains the remains of an ancient 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

9:22 am
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, inch and a little more. i lost my brother, my 2 nieces and nephews, my sister in law. do you see people are looking for transportation? every one is wandering around our money. our vehicles are all gone, everything is gone. i couldn't go to 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 age to turkey and syria, including those with their own struggles to deal with archie, 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,
9:23 am
the shipment consists of 55 tons of relief supplies. i don't know, there has been several days that were on the alert in the around red crescent 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 were doing the loading by the arrangements with a ron's army and the slumming 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 worth crossing, says suntrust frictions will not stop the country from extending a helping hand to both circus 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,
9:24 am
sending relief items and humanitarian aid has faced severe difficulties because of the sanctions on syria. but given our humanitarian duty, we at a ron's red kristen. society sent a 10 members specialized team, byron'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 mark in helping syria and turkey with their relief efforts. this is, while the 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
9:25 am
sanctions. but beirut says its humanitarian gestures will not be hampered. elisa leone middle monkey humanitarian corporation knows no boundaries and humanitarian affairs can all be shackled. well attracted to us, sees a ragged, 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 geneva bill arose, 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, weighing 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 eyes kept mom about the catastrophic situation as syria and how their sanctions
9:26 am
blocked vital aid from reaching the affected people there. while the u. s, as it has only temporarily suspended its 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 every one must return to help reduce the suffering of those and syria and turkey. use of generally r t, toronto. the u. s. military has shot down another, unidentified object flying over canada. that's after a series of u. s. a tax on mysterious aerial bodies over the past week. a u. s. air force at general says extra terrestrial activity hasn't been excluded. when journalists asked him about the possible alien warren gin of the object lead the intel community and the counter intelligence community figure that out. i haven't throw out anything. at this point,
9:27 am
we continue to says every threat or potential threat unknown. that approaches north america with an attempt to identify it. the object was tracked overnight and then shot down by a us jet on jo biden's orders over canadian territory with 2 other similar bodies taken down over alaska and the yukon over the weekend. now us officials say that the objects did not pose any threat, but are keeping a close eye on the countries airspace in light of the recent incident with a chinese balloon. now china also reported a mysterious object spotted over the yellow sea brian berlin, former us marine, and geopolitical analyst says, u. s. government, bizarre response to aerial objects is a sign of its growing insecurity. 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
9:28 am
don't know. it's not that they're not disclosing it, 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. and it is that the reflection of growing insecurity and incompetence at all levels of the u. s. government and military were watching the united states cook off provocations with ra further escalations with russia, with china, with iran. and all of that is to create fear and anger and hatred among the american public and 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 are that does it for me, this hour i will be back on about 31 and a half minutes will not
