good morning, from our tutor, national studio in moscow to wherever you may be, and welcome to the ours top news stories from all around. i'm serial is about. the iranian president's 1st state visit to china is to kick off on tuesday with a large delegation of senior iranian officials accompanying him. during his 3 day trip. officials from the 2 countries shared their positive expectations prior to the visit, shedding jose, our bilateral relations with china, are in various field site including economics, especially energy, financial and monetary affairs. we will find 20 memorandums of understanding during this visit by the high ranking officials of iran and china. and what is important that these relations should be followed strategically in a bilateral fashion. and i mean with your college in recent years under the guidance of presidency and president gracie chinese iranian relations have maintained the momentum of sound growth. the future, strong political,

mutual trust, steady progress and practical cooperation in various fields and some communication and coordination. international regional affairs, in defense of the principle of non interference and internal affairs and a common interest in developing countries like this as it will be a 1st by the iranian leader in 20 years. china's foreign ministry spokes women's center i. e. c. s. trip comes as these invitation as the 2 countries speak to strengthen economic cooperation amid sanctions pressure from western countries. the leaders met for the 1st time last september at a summit of the shanghai cooperation organisation where abraham racy called for expanded ties. we heard from r t contributor use of july ali, who says the iranian president's visit to beijing will enhance bilateral relations between the countries was president of brian bracey is in china. upon an invitation by his chinese counterpart,

gigi and ping is there for 3 day visits. but 2 sides are also expected to sign co operation documents aimed and deepening the trade ties between the 2 states. o'brien bracey has got a lot on his plate. he has a lot to do on his itinerary, but all of those activities and plas boiled down to one single goal. and that is to expand economic and political ties between to iran and beijing. of course it goes beyond saying that china is it was major and number one, trait partner. it is a major buyer of iran's oil, and now the 2 sides are going to take another step forward to increase and expand their bi lateral ties. it seems that the 2 sides and rush up as well are forming a united front, a counter force to the west, and on top of them to the united states and unilateralism,

they are planning to even ditch the daughter and use their own national currencies . either trade, so it's a very key step. now, abraham races was, it's a china and we have to wait and see what will come out of that visit. but there is one symbol message and major message to the united states and west that it one and china are going to engage more on different france from military to politics and now economy. the 2 sides traded ah more. that's what $24000000000.00 in the past year. 5 people were injured in the don yet republic by ukrainian shelling on monday. that's according to local authorities. as civilians there continue to live under constant threat. our sister channel rti arabic sent this report from the ground mark will.

it'll commonly look with every new advance by the russian troops and the domestic republic heaves forces. shall see this the civilian areas and non residential buildings with western weapons. second yeah. yeah. shit though. oh it moves no, but i think there is no way back. we need to push them back and then negotiate. now i think we can't negotiate. it's the 9th year we've been living here without the ukrainian regime. yeah, hold also good will dennis in the civil and in that say ukrainian shelling is a systemic policy. aimed to take revenge and people who made their choice and decided to return to their mother land. this policy stokes peoples determination and aspiration of freedom. will the blame as on his obese, unless we are fighting a war for independence of russia in the russian world? i'm sure we will prevail and have a new victory day and victory parade lower but up lobby of mucous, civil hon. behind us, hattie, the west is bumping ukraine full of weapons. these weapons are used to kill civilians who are turned by the west and to fuel for their war against russia. sheila crawley alamo deserve them the growing losses of the ukrainian armies.

manpower and equipment may keep loose, its mind, and use long range western weapons to fire at civilians. what while the west is either a false witness in them or accomplish of the crime? shows those wouldn't thought. while ukraine uses nato supplied weapons to sheldon bass. the alliance is secretary general says the block needs to ramp up production as kev burns through western stock piles. at the same time jen salton burg claims nato's reinforcement back in 2014 help the block to day. if hostile changed natal. it's us just demonstrated the importance only on the how important it has been the actually since 2014 nato hassan implemented the biggest reinforcements or collected defense in the generation recalls the war did start in february last year . it started in 2014 this week. our expect, our lawyers will agree to establish

a new virtual network of national and commercial satellites. this will improve our intelligence on surveillance and support 9 commissions on operations. then use satellite network will help exchange data last week, officials in care of admitted they were like directly on us intelligence when picking targets for american supplied artillery systems. human rights attorney martin dozer told us nato is pursuing its own interest in the conflict. so if you look at that, clearly we can see that the walgreens started in that time, more than that on yet, then look at the public. they're both clear that they don't want the interference of the qu, government of the might on cool. and that they want to deborah lot has some kind of come to know similar inside create that not on the government, which was not ordered to mccrae 60. and since that time we're inside automation

will cost different interests. but all of on the interference and the impact on ukraine by nato, and by their own interests you, etc, go against russia. and to get ukraine into their own sphere of influence, they wanted to bring that follow ups and already in the queue in the queue that was militant for us, especially for faith or provide it with weapons by the us and by the nature of a naval states so we can think that from that point on the nature of some was that conflict. exaggerated false and misleading. that's how eco scientists have summed up the real results of $24.00 companies, moving towards net 0 emissions. as it turns out, green industry leaders are not quite as green as they make out. the $24.00

companies net 0 pledges amount on average to a reduction commitment of just 36 percent. this demonstrates a huge chasm between what the companies are currently committing to and what is needed to avert the most damaging impacts of climate change. the goal of global net 0 emissions requires deep emission reductions in all economic sectors. met 0 targets that do not reflect deep emission reductions of at least 90 to 95 percent are misleading. the researchers accused the companies of relying on most of the carbon to be removed from the air, either by offsets or by just striking the emissions off from the total swiss face nestle, the food and beverage company, which has a whole page on its website marketing its climate action plan, like all these companies do, plans to have net 0 emissions by 2050. at the latest. so as german car maker, volkswagen french grocery retailer cal who'll aims to be carbon neutral by 2040. so

little bit earlier. so be sure to make a little note right now in your agenda for 20 or 30 years from now to follow up and make sure that you hold them accountable. if they fall short. by the way, if they don't make it, they might just be your fault, nestle 3, the last month, that quote, the path to net 0 needs all of us. oh, in that case, if they don't make the target, maybe they're not to blame. maybe we all are, we already saw what happened when countries failed to meet their emission reduction pledges. nothing happened to the countries. the company cited in this new report disagree with their portrayal. now nestle, for example, says that it will quote, continue reducing our emissions and removing carbon from the atmosphere. that sounds like a good one to try. the next time you're invited out somewhere, but really don't want to go. sorry, can't join you denied. i'm busy removing carbon from the atmosphere. and yeah,

who can possibly argue with that? so there's a lot of marketing going on here with questionable benefits and results. and at the same time, oil companies have also been talking up that he to speed up the green energy revolution. there are 2 things that need to happen in this world. number one, when he to accelerate the energy transition, and number 2, the transition needs to be orderly needs to be orderly because if it's not supply and demands, get out of whack, you get what happened last year. prices will skyrocket and people around the world will be dealing with a cost of living crisis. we're doing both accelerating the energy transition and ensuring the transition is an orderly one. but now that europe is actually facing an existential crisis and needs energy in large supply, right? now, big oil is shifting its focus back to fossil fuels, and last year's profits for shareholders didn't come from green energy renewables. they came from oil and gas and money talks. it's also disappointing to

a group of $27.00 climate minded investors, representing $1.00 trillion dollars in assets who have now just written a letter to big european banks. pleading for them to please stop financing new oil and gas fields and projects by the end of this year. they must stop directly financing new oil and gas fields. second, banks must urgently turn their attention to the companies that are enabling new oil and gas feels from being discovered and developed. and not only is oil and gas making come back, but the trend in europe and the ongoing energy crisis has been reversion to call germany austria, france, the netherlands, italy all have fire full flats back up if only cool could be considered green to right. well, australia claim that it was entirely possible it had been peddling so called clean cool on the global market and selling it at a higher cost,

claiming that it's clean burning would mean lower carbon offset costs for its buyers. turns out the whistleblower came forward last year saying that it was all just a big scam and that the clean aspect of the coal had been falsified and quality control tests. it's just a good thing that all that hard air being spewed by dodgy, green marketing, doesn't have a carbon footprint and a price tag. well, at least it doesn't yet. a palestinian man has been killed and several people injured. and israeli raids in the north of the west bank while in a supper incident and is really police officer died in a stabbing attack at a checkpoint near the entrance of one of the refugee camps. for more details on the latest incidents, let's cross lived to ortiz, middle east correspondent, maria phenomena who's in jerusalem right now. good morning, maria. what do we know about these latest serious of attacks?

well, good morning. earlier on monday, a young israeli border police officer died following a stab an attack at the checkpoint to show fod refugee camp. just 5 kilometers from jerusalem's. old c t happened when he got on a bus for security check, and apparently one of the passengers pulled out the knife and attacked him investigation is currently undergoing. but preliminary report spies. rarely police say that as security guards who saw this attack, tried to stop the attack and opened fire, but the bullet ended up killing the officer. he died later from injuries they attacked. he was arrested on the small t, the 13 year old boy, the resident of the sure fod refugee camp. shortly after that israeli forces rated the camp and as a result of the attack, his parents and his brothers were arrested. clashes broke out between local residents and these rally police during this raid, no casualties have been reported. the country's national security minister bennet

varies now considering to shut down all entrances and exits to the sharp eyed refugee camp for several days. for security reasons. this recent attack happened just hours after another incident. 20 young jewish man was stab and his back in the old city of jerusalem by a teenager who was later, also high down to fight. as the resident of the refugee camp of shaw, fired back to you. well, we have seen a rapid escalation in the region over the past few weeks or have been numerous, palestinian retaliations and israeli raised in response. can you tell us a bit more? yes, i have to say it has been quite turbulent here on the ground recently and some explain it by a very hard line that the country's new government chooses regarding palestinian the ferry to what palestinians obviously respond violently and angrily. the idea of milton re tapping intensifying all throughout the occupied westbank, especially in the northern part of it. we hear a, according to the latest reports that $48.00 palestinians have been killed in those

rates since the beginning of this year, including civilians, demolition all their policy in houses that israel sees as illegal including east in jerusalem and all throughout the west bank. kathleen, also in full swing recently, the rock casualties from the other side to 10 israeli civilians have been killed in to terror attacks, including one the worst since 2008 here in east and jerusalem at deadly shooting near the synagogue and another revenue sit in last week took the lives of 3 people as well, including 2 kids. and also there has been a rocket exchange with gather story recently. so yes, i have to say the temperatures have been rising and fears that we're going to see even more dramatic installation in the coming days as a israel is determined to continue its harsh policy and palestine is, will obviously respond r g 's. maria for notion with the latest. thank you very much. and to some news

from around the world. now at least 3 people have reportedly been killed and 5 more injured in a mass shooting at the university of michigan campus. police suspect one shooter who is described as a black male and is still at large. all campus activities have been cancelled for 48 hours. i've police search for the attacker, a smoke farms, fireworks and violet clashes with please hundreds of albanian. protesters disrupted a parliamentary session and demanded the government's resignation. that's a mid recent accusations against officials allegedly involved in corruption. and now to some news from moscow, where a huge fire broke out in a car service in the north of the city, firefighters rushed to the scene to tackle the flames in tough conditions with

exploding fuel canisters and tires of blaze. the fire has now been extinguished with 3 people rescued from the scene, while the fate of 2 others remains unknown. today marked the 20th anniversary of the un security council meeting, where the head of the united nations monitoring the mission at the time stated that there were no traces of weapons of mass destruction in iraq. however, this didn't stop the u. s. which used the presence of w, m. d, 's as a pretext for attacking the middle eastern country back in 2003. here's our special coverage of one of the deadliest wars in the 21st century. at this hour, american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm iraq, to free people, and to defend the world from great. hm

. room food and sleep. with that, since the us led invasion of iraq over 1000000 civilians have been killed with more than 9000000 iraqis being displaced both internally and abroad. one of the architects of the war is considered to be van u. s. secretary of state colin powell who claimed that the iraqi leader saddam hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction top us officials were not the

only ones justifying the invasion. western media actively followed the authorities lead, closely observing and supporting the u. s. bombing of baghdad. artes donald quarter explores how the war coverage looked 20 years ago. what we have seen on televisions though, is indeed the 1st phase of a day. the a campaign called shock and awe. by the u. s. military, the tech came in waves cruise missiles followed by the f. 117. so palmer with so called bunker russian golf, america's crusade to shock it all a rack and the world into u. s. dominated democracy had begun. no cost was too high. if it meant accomplishing the goal, shut the country down would entail both the physical destruction of appropriate infrastructure and the shut down and control of the flow of old vital information and associated commerce. so rapidly as to achieve a level of national shock. i came to the effect that job in nuclear weapons on

hiroshima and nagasaki had on the japanese this term shock and all quickly became a household name, appearing on everything from energy drinks and coffee to video games. and condoms. kind of morbid, considering thousands of people were killed in the 1st several weeks of this doctrines application. but back then the mainstream media did everything it could to justify the u. s. invasion. there were no strangers to censorship either in their mission to win over average american hearts and minds for a hunt to find nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. my stories raising questions about the administration's claim, so the link between iraq and al qaeda were being cut burried or held out of the paper altogether. i grew so sick of this that when the washington post reported that a rock had turned over its nerve gas to terrorists, i refused to try to match the story. one mid level editor in the washington bureau yelled at me for my refusal. he came to my desk carrying a golf club while berating me after i told him that the story and i wasn't going to

make any calls on it. later on. the same media outlets even admitted much of what they published was not based on a shred of evidence. we have found a number of instances of coverage that was not as rigorous as it should have been. in some cases, information that was controversial then, and seems questionable now was insufficiently quantified, are allowed to stand on challenged. looking back, we wish we had been more aggressive in re examining the claims. as new evidence emerged, all fate to emerge. we should have worn to reduce, we had information that the basis for this will shakia. those are exactly the kind of statements that should be published on the front page. so many lives, so many people sent to fight a brutal war based on those lies. and for those responsible for it, all, the lack of any sort of accountability allowed them to wipe their hands clean and move on with their political careers as if nothing happened. despite the war being

officially over, a rocky still suffered the consequences of the u. s. presence in the country as civilians frequently become targets of american violence, one of the victims, as an iraqi girl who was shot in september last year. her relatives shared her story with us. ah, ah ah, oh ha. she was a student. she was helping me with my work, like any child she dreamed about finishing school and becoming a teacher of thought. she was only in her early. it definitely was an american bullet. i think that the responsibility lies primarily with u. s. troops. i didn't expect that the need would be killed. maybe it could have happened to my brother or

any other family member or neighbors, but but not as anita one that she used to get out of the house only for 2 hours. i believe. i'm going to the dia, the incident with zainab is not the 1st we've suffered from the shootings constantly as the training grounds behind us. there's been more than 14 cases of people wounded by the trainings with aidan called on the officials to deal with the shootings which has led to casualties. ah, lot of fun. i don't believe the crime has been reported internationally, but locally it has become a matter of great public opinion. the wolf sin was she killed the marches. i not bizarre magic. i casale. 15 year old girl walking on the farm with her father killed by american troops. but the silence of civil society organizations,

human rights organizations, childrens ride organizations and women's rights. ah, one of my son. okay. miss. all father was murdered in 2003 by us troops. there was a camp near our house, which was adjacent to the airport. their troops were always on standby, and when they saw my father sitting there and thought he was monitoring them, another shot later they admitted they made a mistake when they killed him. only when we were at the hospital, the americans told me that their cameras spotted my father and accidentally they shot him. but no contact was made after that, the americans only care about themselves while other foreign citizens, not only iraqis are taken to encounter last of all of the iraqi blood is worthless for them. all americans only have brought harm to us. things have been getting worse and worse since the invasion,

and we do not see any improvement. i would like to say to all americans that the iraqis have dignity despite the tragedy which happened to us. if they were humane, they would come and apologize, but they did nothing and we do not expect them to simpler. muckraker on the invasion of iraq is led to the destruction and fragmentation of iraqi society. americans destroyed on national unity. we all saw the crimes perpetrated by the u. s. troops and the black water contract is against the people. the murder of zainab is a continuation of the american crimes. they did not come to do justice to iraqi people, but to demolish us we will continue our special coverage of there are a war and it's tragic legacy throughout the month. you could always visit our website at archie, dot com to get more on the u. s. invasions graham anniversary ah
