a portly launched of barracks, of 40 rockets straight into the city of dawn. yes, we can cross live. now get details on this developing situation here on our t. there's iraq john off right now, eager to see you what, what do we know so far about this breaking news? this a tough will. absolutely. the city of dynette has once again come under a heavy artillery attack. the ukrainian side has launched about 40 rockets towards the city center. they managed to hit the prosecutor general's office along with a bunch of schools kindergartens. a dormitory and several civilian apartment buildings now see the thing is the front line lies very, very close to the city with certain districts being mia kilometers away were from where the most of the fighting happens. now the city center which came under the shelling today, it has sort of roomed immune from such attacks for a while. just

a quick reminder, the city has been shelled relentlessly by the ukrainian side to self the since the civil strife broke out in ukraine. back in 2014, with the attacks intensifying since russia launched a. it's a military campaign in ukraine. now again, the city center for throughout these years it has been immune from these attacks because while the ukrainian side couldn't reach it with the weapons that it had. but since the nato made artillery fell into the hands of ukrainian troops. well, the entire territory of dynette is vulnerable. eager to what about what about the front lines? can you take us there? what, what's the very latest we know about the conflict zones? well the ra, several hotspots all across the front line in he'll be here, san region, it's mostly, well russia is an active defense in the ukranian side from what we know. they aren't attempting any sort of move,

went into any advancements also in these up arrows. your region are the while, the situation is more or less the same. and right now, key battles happen in the theater of war of the dawn bass over into net kids, of course. ah, well it, so glinda and of dave car and marian car and over there again, the situation, is it a bit of a stalemate with the russian troops advancing, but it and at an incredibly slow pace. now that arguably the biggest hot spot is right now, the city of back moved or, or charm of sc there. it says the domain of rushes, wagner's company, and they are showing some really impressive results there. we've just returned from the village of paris, chavira guy. it is a small town, but very important. it has changed hands quite recently. and basically it allows the russian forces to kind out well to flank the city of buck moved from the north . as another divisions of the wagner's company are attempting the same from the south. now the city of our tom, excuse already, while it is it,

the situation has come close to it being as surrounded there, of course, quite a few settlements and villages and towns that have to change hands and fall into the hands of the wagner group. but they are, well, they are showing results and they are moving forward. now at the same time i hear in the loo, ganske republic, the main hot spot. well, it stretches from the town of cream and night towards the town of spots of around the town of criminal. the russian forces have also managed to show some gains in the forest or in the national park. this is what it used to be before the war and before the mines that have been buried in its soil. and there the russian regular army is moving forward slowly, taking over one ukrainian stronghold after the other. and also the russian troops in the past week or so. it has managed to come back and gain a foothold in the heart of region capturing a couple of villages. just

a quick reminder, of course, this happens after rushes retreat from the region last year in the fall. no, i don't respond an egotist on off. thank you. i turning our attention now to the middle east, where the syrian officials say at least 5 people have been killed and 15 wounded in on israeli missile strike on damascus. the authorities say a residential apartment building was struck like center officials say most of the incoming missiles were into septic, but some managed to hit a number of points in and around the city. so take a look at be off them off here. this residential building was directly hit with a number of other nearby structures also damaged. it was the 1st major attack on syria since the series of deadly earthquakes devastated northern parts of the country in recently turning it over. now the local journalist, here's mohammed ali,

an official military story in a statement that what happened was that about $22.00 a m local time. there was a new radio radio hotter that carried out the right targeting areas in and around the syrian capital la, damascus. soc happened from the direction of the occupied the syrian colon and as a result of the attack, these 5 people were killed. one of them is military personnel and 15 others injured . now, of course, most of those are civilians. i mean, what you can see, just behind me is there was a building in an area called jefferson's in the heart of the capital, damascus. and this is a very big hole that was caused by the israeli. my child that's landed right over here at the instance of this residential building. now, despite the fact that this quarter, yes, includes

a government establishment like the ministry of interior, the prime minister's office. yes. this area in particular is only area that i'm from one where i am standing at the people will come hearing the course. they didn't know 1st is that an earthquake? it's a terrorist attack. they didn't actually lives at 1222 a m. what was actually happening window drove most of the balconies of those residential building, collapse towards the building close to this area. there is an iranian cultural center, but it has not been damaged or affected nor attack directly by the aggression. this behind me is completely a residential area and this is why we have to wait and see if there will be any details from the, from the radio side to tell the world why they attacked this sign. now let's say that these radio always use precepts of attacking uranium targets and through yes and

a bit to try to justify in front of the international community. it's a violation of sovereignty to talk, but you know civilians and military personnel in theory. yep. but at the end of the day when we go to areas hit every time, it's either it's theory, an army post or it's a civilian area. it's not a secret that yes, there are radian military advisors assisting the theory and army and the war on terror. this is at the request of the syrian government army. it's not a secret, it's a legitimate right for the 3 and 5 to ask for help from its allies. but what is illegal? what is against international law? what is against the sovereignty is a talking. it's conference states, a talking, a country that has just come out from a massive earthquake. people are suffering already and just, just as they're suffering, well, it's really officials i've yet to comment on the mythos strike. meantime, moscow has condemned it condemning the attacks on syria, calling them unacceptable as other countries are actively helping damascus deal

with the consequences of the recent earthquakes. nearly we spoke with eric alack, met a syrian politician. he says the asteroids come at a very difficult time for his country. a nice place to stay in the middle of the mosque. was it just civilian building? all the people it's. it's as i told you at the middle of the mass, all the people they are going to these places, if just really and people which today i think yesterday, it was really shocked in the middle of the night yesterday. syria, which she and as quick until now and all that country, the i'm going to headed the victim to people. now suddenly in the middle of the night, they added attacking the head of the mass group, stacking this to be and this 12 feet. it's all good and well, i guess the area

a lot of damage was damaged. many people to national hospital where many people they came to this hospital and annual summit of the african union. as wrapping up today in ethiopia with ultimate hopes to strengthen economic ties across the continent, that is as a 3 western african nations, but in a fossil guinea. and molly, of all launched bids to re enter the block after being suspended due to government cruise in recent years. over now to this local john list. it is a major meeting off mind designed to pull the continent on the fast, the threat to stability and prosperity this. so 2 seats are being re haitian, of the african, the union assembly have for all together head off the state, and the government official from members can 3 to be sub a ball in the opening to speak. a commission chairperson, what's

a fact mohammed say about infrastructure energy and the digitalization of economy? will i love the rage and potential prime minister abbey, also abreast on the conference telling about each time the pm on the principle of african salvation to african problem. while the principle of african solutions love to come, problems is widely raised in the scope of conflict. it is imperative that we begin to extend this principle to or to a wide range of peace and security issue, continental for security. and for so vanity is one such issue. our continent is not only will able to fit itself, but can become a big basket of the wallet. you're in secretary jen. i'm pulling out with her as paul the death emily, that africa has their wells off, not for our results, but have not yet been able to use them properly. speaking off the regions potty

show the african continent free thread agreement, it was the largest free thread area and to bring together the $55.00 countries of the african union. and a regional economy communities of tough blonde is to boost into africa thread by 60 person by 2034 by eliminating almost all tardy. and the crating economy, blog posts, $1300000000.00 people with a combined gross domestic product of $3.00, part $3000000.00. i've got is important because we need and, and then the grid said the community to solve the program of profit. got so the importance of scott is to link i'll click on the countries together to share i just and 6,

the way to develop the country and if new initiative, new projects and does with the what is going africa counts return, i'm sorry for the thread. all the about 50 percent off goods and the service with each job there compared to more than 65 percent with european country. and you want the bank a steady state. if the agreement is expanded on that plan, it will balance policies of investment, competition, e commerce and intellectual property rights. deeper integration indeed would help build the pad and efficient market improve competitiveness and attract more data for the investment by reducing the risk off shifting regulation and a policies. the scenario could rank income gains off 9 person by 335 and red deals . the number of people are paid for by extreme poverty, basra, mom, that our, i be a sub robot,

an independent unless from sudan attending the summit. so if the union is split on whether or not to allow states that have had military coups, to join the ally when we come to live, that equal the opinion or to fight from the one african union. the fountain from miley probably from don, from the african country that the members have, or the vision is the union because what got to be guarded by that because the union i'm on the 15th and then but other there won't be venue close. and there was an agreement that this is going to be revisited. why? because also most of the president of

the found on both job looking back at the summit and certainly the beginning of it . it is not good town without a scandal. a senior israeli diplomat. the countries deputy director for african affairs was kicked out of the opening ceremony admitted dispute over her accreditation, a video circulating online, showing security escorting the israeli different out of the assembly. the summit official says and israeli invoice was invited just not that one israels observe. the status of the african nation. it's been a thorny issue in recent years for the whole african union, with many member states opposing its present. israel condemned the action that prevented different participating, accusing south africa and algeria of fueling a diplomatic spy. while it says it will summon south africa's envoy to discuss the issue this week, it also laid the foundation of the blame on iran. it

is sad to see that the african union has been taken hostage by a small number of extremist countries such as algeria and south africa, driven by hatred and controlled by iran. we call an african countries to stand against these actions that harm the organization of the african union itself in the entire continent. a former south africa national assembly member says that all african union states should come together and revoke israel. observe a status. well, either in the dreamy races as they or you do use the language to express yourself on its own identity. it's all covered. so i would hope that there would be a very strong united african voice on these undermining of the african bridge monday african jerusalem. that but it is,

it is how i hope that fish and we will have to action for the new, shallow, escorted the drive, the delegation out of the conference. thank you. wouldn't be endorsed by the entire issue and ticket national fish. i'm proud of all of the states from the african continent institutions african particular in there. we hope that there are no more indications extended to government. it is good to have your company today. india is government has accused a, b, b, c of tax evasion, saying that british state broadcaster failed to pay sufficient duties on its income in the south asian country. during the course of a survey,

the department gathered several evidences which indicate the tax has not been paid on certain remittances which have not been disclosed as income in india. the allegations have common rising tensions over a controversial documentary by the british broadcast about india's prime minister, no rain dro mowdy. in the report modi a hindu is accused of discriminatory policies against muslims. a spokesperson for his political party insisted that the tax case is not a retaliation for those claims. the v. b, i've been doing a lot of ation a consistent violation of pricing. it has been indulging in, in, in a sense that what we could call and leave the region taking profits any time putting it on a link o financial my go about compliance with docs goes in this country to some documentary which is based on 2 based on

a one convenient no to the financial mishandling or should in the next thing that it is linked to some documentary centrally shows up when i have cash to go really denied that there's any link between the b b, c documentary or another 2002. but you authorize that, in fact, we spoke about prime minister all these role in the community itself, that then of course he was the chief minister of good job, the exact documentary and currently the so b is that are being carried out. d c also says a both in new delhi as well as a mon, by what they're saying is that this is a government nor to the acting out of revenge, as it is being pointed out in several publications. even the opposition in their own expected lines, really doing that, but essentially what,

what he's saying is that the government have to do that. even if they have just done it way back. you know, they didn't have to wait for all these weeks really also what they're trying to see is the b, b, c, a white being employs and shown stacks by all frauding of them be their employees as free lancers, for example, and bdc has been a long time offender, and every time a sylvie is conducted by the tax department, it is carried out only when there are repeated violations. so the question being asked is why did b b c nor respond to all the notices that were being sent to them? or remember at this stage, the tax, the baldwin, the docs officials, are calling get us. so are we not to read or serge air in my quantization, which is all for now while i was the national spoke for some of the part the agents are body. he's categorized guy categorically denied any link between the bbc

document. re add these surveys that are being carried out was essentially saying is that nobody. 2 know, broadcast or is above the law of the land that you've a foreign company is working in india. they have to comply. * by the rules, by the tax rules, and if you're not doing that, that india have the right to conduct. so we've the so called rates as they're being called on these companies. a danish media outlet has run a story about key of troops in it. it shows the ukranian commando wearing terrorist insignia during an interview about what his or unit need son, officer identified as could, is seen with a dias, arm patch. and that is the same one used by the terrorist organization across the middle east. of us comes often numerous examples of ukranian troops have been spotted wearing neo nazi insignia. various medicine groups, such as the us off battalion gain traction in the country following the 2014 coo

and moscow has repeatedly accused western powers of using ukrainian extremists as proxies to fight against russia and attack ethnic russians in ukraine. i was seeing a trend here perhaps back in the 1980s. washington support had been surgeon groups and i've gone on in the fight against the soviet union, western and major media at the time lavished praise upon al qaeda's leader and founder osama bin law. and we all know how that works, but the latest our russian intelligence statement has said that the us is training radicals at this time from diane to conduct attacks in russia and other post soviet countries. journalist and author, daniel lazar says that's as long as it's in washington's interests. the us will continue supporting extremists around the world, particularly in ukraine. the, the us back, our cage are in syria from

a 2012 on claiming that the rebels who were really were led by al qaeda were actually democratic force. and the, the, the western media, you know, swallowed a whole supported them all the way down the line. so, i mean, the u. s. does is constantly and the corporate media, the lapdog breath goes along with that and the case ukraine allied with neo nazis. and now it appears that it's aligned with, with supporters of this as well. the u. s. is willing to work with anybody as long as they would help help them in their struggle against the job. and now it's doing the same thing with regard to the russian federation. beijing has slammed washington saying that us is trying to use china as a scape goat in order to turn attention away from its own domestic. londoners

avenging for ministry says washington stood up unnecessary hysteria surrounding the chinese balloon incident in order to deflect public attention away from an environmental disaster that occurred in ohio following a trained around vision when i'm kind. yeah. how is it that the u. s. can see balloons flying at an altitude of 800000 meters, but it ignores a vinyl chloride mushroom clouds over ohio. although western media outlets are very quick to high pop the whole balloon incident. american forces shot down the chinese balloon after across us as space alleging it was a spy craft. beijing, all the time was maintained. the aircraft was simply a weather balloon that was blown off course. later when several other unidentified flying objects were spotted over north american aerospace, they will also taken out by the u. s. air force. now this all came amid the train derailment in ohio, the quarter she huge release of toxic chemicals into both the air and soil. few

days later, officials are set the remaining chemicals on fire and what they described as a controlled, burned to prevent further contamination center loom of thick black smoke science at the sky. and a short time later, the states governor said it was safe for all residents to return home, but locals fear that not being exposed to the truth. here i thought i was getting any answers. then i got hopeful that i was going to get it. but i feel like it was just a big run around. like i feel like a lot of the questions that were asked for people's rantings and just speaking in circles, the answers that were given were things that we've already been told. we all just want answers. i think that's what everybody here wants to just answers. i honestly feel that the policy in the police department, the fire department, all the 1st responders,

they don't have the answers to give us because i don't think they know they're not getting the straight answers either. the government's handling of a disaster in ohio as well spoke to slew of infinite mean, some criticising authorities, were intentionally setting the toxic chemicals ablaze. others mocking joe biden, playing off the whole u. f. o rhetoric and suggesting he may have been a doctor by aliens. well, we heard from the vice chairman of the shanghai center, the international studies, nelson wong. he says that countries have to sold their own problem, so not use other issues to distract it is getting a hysterical in a sentence by making such a big muscle, the balloon incident on the international arena. what we see is that the u. s. government is making full use of this balloon incident to distract people, you know, by calling this balloon which is actually a whether analysis or whether study or web analysis. they are

pulling it to a chinese bible or doing surveillance, which is really quite ridiculous. the government's will have to, to stand up and deal with the problems facing instead of calling all other countries to, to cover it up to the u. s. f or took out the chinese balloon, but also took out 3 other unidentified flying objects. one of them apparently with a $12.00 party balloon. so us air force using a $1000000.00 missile to take out a $12.00 building. more info and details at r. c dot com. blue with
