1:15 pm
lines that describe how his sciences are spearheading combat operations. a warning 1st to view as the report does contain some distressing footage. a few years ago this group was more mythical than real. now we stand in a large warehouse greeted by the head of the wagner's company himself. the occasion is solemn, commemorating the self sacrifice of 2 hero pilots. the no man left behind principle in case of the wagner group had applies not just to personnel, but to symbolic relics of war like the remains of this russian bama jet. it was shut down by the ukrainian forces during the fighting for the city of buck mood. when the pilots realised that while they were doomed, they directed the burning machine towards the enemy, towards their military column dying heroically themselves. and while taking
1:16 pm
a bunch of foes with them, ukraine had already returned with honors the bodies of the pilots. the jets debris though could only be retrieved now, as the wagner group was closing in on our chops. what number for a commercial one, bird? this is flight 48, the guys have fuel to fulfill their desk. having cries to blame the enemy, territory rowing their military convoy. it's now time to commemorate what they have done. what's in our chops for buck mote. it's wagner versus the entirety of ukraine's military might. no man knows the situation on the ground better than the groups chieftain preggers. look, i fled above them astro beauty one wiser than boardman. it seems to paralyze the korean army and it's already paralyzed. the enemy is deploying reserved troops, but we're advancing in different directions every day somewhere. it's 50 meters and somewhere it's $100.00. we're fighting for each house. for each square meter,
1:17 pm
there is a fortified area in every yard of them. then we see another familiar face. a fighter who starred in woods, believed to be a ukrainian propaganda video. the footage purported to show him being brutally executed, bludgeoned to death, alive well and back in the ranks. he himself to bunks the favor. when i was captured, they beat me. i was tortured and pressed into saying what they wanted me to say. i got many threats. they threatened to kill me and dismember my body. i girls to footage on line for my family to see where to go to the lou. oh, yes, sure. decorated vitamin commanders also mingle in the room. they all are very aware of the new batch of heavy western weapons, though soon have to face on the battlefield. wagner's commander of artillery with
1:18 pm
the smoke, hence his men, have plenty of experience. come from cruise using ne to made weapons are available to cover for this is not the 1st time we have encountered nato artillery, but so we came here prepared when you, thanks to lessons from previous experience against other nato artillery. look what i mean. i'm not going to say which one, but we met more than once and we met some more powerful artillery than the ones here on this front. i'm not going to share the details, but that experience has taught us a lot unusual. based on that, we have developed progress well in your life itself has forced us to develop new tactics for conducting artillery combat operations. oklahoma, no one here showed any disrespect or disregard to the foe skill yet no one doubts. wagner will come out victorious. i'm again done. of reporting from the dorm bus, r t o, spain, one of the top 3 carriers of ukrainian grain via the black sea corridor has been
1:19 pm
using the vital weight to feed its pigs in order to export more pork rather than helping the poorest nations as was initially agreed upon, artie contributor rachel marston has more details. remember all the talk about how critical it was to get ukrainian grain shipped out of ukraine to feed the hungry in africa asia. well, according to the latest real time data published by the united nations black sea grain initiative, joint coordination center, the top 3 destinations for ukrainian grain are china, spain and turkey. and those 3 countries alone represent 46 percent of all exports. so we're talking, all exports being roughly $700.00 plus shipments of grain. china acts as the gateway to asia and turkey acts as the gateway to africa. but what's the deal with spain? spain domestically produces more than enough of the grain that it needs to feed its
1:20 pm
own people with grain for people, accounting for just about a quarter of all the countries domestic consumption, the rest of the grade that the country produces goes to feed its livestock. and notably, pigs, spain is routinely ranked as one of the top, if not the top port producing country in the entire world. which means that with all this grain being imported into spain, from ukraine, now it's hard to escape the conclusion that the country's literally taking out on ukrainian grain. and it's not like this is about making sure that cute little pigs roaming freely around the spanish countryside. don't go hungry, it's not about taking the food out of their mouths. more grain just basically means that more pigs can be churned out for port to the economic benefit of madrid and ultimately to the european economy. which of course is great for europe. but what
1:21 pm
exactly was growing spain's pork industry used as a reason to unblocked ukrainian grain? last month, spain was able to increase its meat exports by 79 percent overall. that's in part due to its ability to meet china's demands, to sell a 124 per cent, more spanish port to beijing compared to the same period last year. again. wonderful for the spanish economy, but not exactly following the spirit or the letter of the deal to unblock ukrainian grain to feed. the poor. russian president vladimir putin has repeatedly raised the issue of food from ukraine being misdirected. but i did give sure you don't know who was you most of crenan, the almost sole grain exported from ukraine is south north of the developing and poorest countries. but to the european union states on the 2 ships out of $87.00 below that. as paul told you out of the world food program, i'd like to say that just like many repeat concerts. so
1:22 pm
a previous decade and sensory sacked at us colonize us. so they continue to do today journal. so just how much ukrainian grain is getting to the countries that need it most. well collectively they're getting about 15 percent of the total export volume, which work so to roughly one percent each. but guess he's proud of those efforts, spain. here's the status. we're administer patty himself and ukrainian authorities on the back last fall for their humanitarian initiative. green from ukraine. spain joins ukraine and the rest of its allies in this program, which is an honor, an immortal testament to ukraine's commitment against hunger in the world. even as it fights against russia's aggression and its indiscriminate shelling of export logistics infrastructure, which endangers millions of people who depend on ukrainian products. but hey, if hungry nations are getting a short changed on the grain, maybe there are at least getting some of the pork from spain after the pigs are done. stuffing their faces with it. apparently not. china is the top importer of
1:23 pm
poor followed by japan. and then european countries like italy, germany and poland. so if the intent is truly to feed the hungry rather than just benefit europe's economy, the current ukrainian reign scheme is really missing the mark. well, it comes as multiple african countries face food insecurity. somalia, recently hit by consecutive droughts is now approaching what oxfam describes as one of its was humanitarian crises, and recent history. with over 7 100000 people already facing food shortages and several 1000000 in need of humanitarian assistance. meanwhile, organizations like the international rescue committee and action against hunger, one that almost $1000000.00 more somali and so on the brink of famine. the brain export control as he comes amid strengthening relations between russia and africa,
1:24 pm
which also cover various fields with bright development prospects. that's the view of the director of the institute for african studies of the russian academy of sciences and our recent exclusive interview to auntie. you can watch the full version throughout the day on naughty. here's a quick preview. interestingly, in terms of technology, russia is particularly competent in areas that africa needs most energy, water, purification, agriculture, medicine space technology. i t smart cities. these are all priority areas for africa. russia can offer africa lots of valuable engineering solutions to give you one example. we've created a certain type of fertilizer that when placed in the soil, stores moisture for up to 3 months. can you imagine how vital this is for african countries, most of which are located in the arid zone. you put the fertilizer in the soil and you don't need to irrigate for 3 months. so when it comes to energy and food
1:25 pm
security to developmental issues or the processing of mineral resources, something that africa has huge reserves of our geologists, our mining companies, our equipment, all that could really help them out. so on the one hand, this opens up prospects for russia, for our own development. and on the other hand, by capitalizing on our technology, africa would be able to move to a new level of development instead of remaining a resource colony within the wider western system. but that was the, was staying with africa, or at least 9 people are dead and 14 wounded off the heavy fighting in the somali long city of alaska and nod clashes between militant groups in some islands, sparks off to a committee of local leaders as scholars and civil groups said they no longer considered the nations administration legitimate and want to rejoin somalia, where phase of al shabani terrorists, sneaking in on the rise,
