out of waters. i'm has raised 30 concerns on disappointment at major and self had with the selections. he could have been far, much better. i think it was enough time. i think we do have a legal framework that i came in to place at. everyone looked forward to has been a major impetus for improved electron, an organization and management. and i think that he hasn't, might deliver as expected. i think we have to watch to see how the coalition process goes even how the elections are concluded. i would be going too far to think of iran given at a concerns that we all have about how things have gone so far. but as i would really be reluctant to talk about the room, in spite of the difficulties nigerians a trying to stay optimistic as the patiently a we still action results. and i in a coffee shop a trying to resolve the problems balloon. dave eat out. see apple jam or modern

day in lagos, or both of via my unknown gum and disrupted the elections with the attackers, arrived on motorcycles and firing shots to intimidate voters. violence in the region called further obstacles for the election process while in the eastern se to bore no book or her arm innocence injured 5 people an attack. my german voters, i and one of nigeria is top electoral officials, told us about the experience of nigeria 1st use of the look electronic voting during the elections where i went to deal with some units that it wasn't properly configured to the back to the code figure it out, which is why we're having these kind of lazy grain my getting yesterday. and with that, how does come know anybody near city the seat of power with

which is way we're seeing that way. you can finally get to the right. i next shoot. are these improve more into technology so that it can be able to get it right? like and then just having issues or lack of of the other? are we having issues applauding to our result yesterday, we shall become much consigned to nigeria and i think it is our areas. i think she'll walk on and see how they can improve on that. some people are finding very difficult to login on that some people have also complained that some of the date is also a coming and going up. and so i don't know what the technical issues i, i don't know what the technique i did this up. but the moment i go back to our situation room we, i t people on the day of the, about whether we have challenges. and if we after alleges, i want to find out the niche or boost alleges are what they have done in relation to listen to them. and in those challenges as well my, my, my,

i'm slightly deficient when it comes to disrupt technology. people i've been causing that balance, the 3 main content is former ruling party government bola made to new form of vice president and neither of the people's democratic party. i think who i will bucher and the youngest contender, former governor, i know many of the labor party, peter, all the who's gaining popularity among young people. each of them represents different region of the country, different tribe and appeals to very electrolytes. over $90000000.00 people will register to vote during the elections with a total of 18 presidential candidates to choose from. parliamentary elections also took place in the country with over 1000 running for the 190 seats and senate, and another 3000 buying for the 360 seats in the house of representatives. our char coverage on the 9th general elections here on our

t throughout the day will keep you updated just a attentions and now to the middle east. pasadena park is a full me condemned a rampage by is brady census in the west bank town of who are saying that is ready . government is fully responsible for conducting the terrorist attack. at least one policy and has been killed. more than a 100. others were left wounded off of violence erupted overnights. ah

ah, the girl is rainy is rated a towel and sucking locals on the setting buildings and cause a blaze one house with the torch, while a person the family listed inside is very true apparently arrived shortly after to push back the attackers. i am protect civilians, israeli prime minister made a statement condemning the wines. i'm cold for the all me to do this job. he has also promised to find the attackers, the destruction i'm chaos. come to our office to israel with hilton, a drive by shooting in the same town. we spoke to a posse in teacher who witnessed the crisis. the situation is very difficult in our town because many, all settings are smooth. on her 400 set, theresa ross and a band many,

many houses and many. deborah hist for the people in colorado is that there was also added barely to house is it's lying to can people hear shooting them or attacking our problem is many things it is difficult to go out now. meanwhile, there are also ripples of fresh trashes between palestinians and is ready troops in the suburbs of jerusalem. ah, explosions were reported at the shoe. i thought refugee camp checkpoint in east jerusalem that led to the idea allegedly opening fire site. the new wave of violence comes as is ready and housing authorities met in jordan for one the summit aimed at curb in the recent spike intentions last wednesday. and i d. f. raid

killed at least 11 palestinians and left more than $100.00 injured. the occupied west bank city of nablus. the local director of the red crescent branded the incident a massacre. quoting to statistics released by the passing health ministry, at least 65 past students, including 13 children, been killed since january. the murphy described this as the bloodiest ever star of the year for the people of palestine in decades. we spoke is really just an political hours a mere or in who says the latest crashes, just perpetrates the cycle of violence. i cycle of violence has become such a cliche, but unfortunately it is true because each incident i would be getting another one and not to revenge action or an action to fall another

attack. and obviously no defensive measures neither offensive nor b. karen's keeps the full the stimulus from acting against israelis and therefore, israeli actions, i guess, to probably seen the tragedy that everyone knows how the peace process should be relaunched via talks. at least between our president abbas and whomever these really prime minister happens to be. but there is no willingness, especially on these really side to really large these dogs because down the road, obviously, that would have to be concessions. they would have to be withdrawn from territories . there will have to be an issue of settlers and of settlements. they don't want to pay the price of fees and therefore they would rather have these incidents go on

and on forever. now to the ukrainian conflict where multiple drug strikes, i have been reported in the early hours of monday morning, across multiple regions. explosions were heard in the capital key as well as in multiple other regions. as you see on this map, this comes and made intensifying, baffles on the done by the front lines. are these eager gentle's report from the russian republic over guns. the frontend to look guns, republic presents the ultimate challenge in military mass. i see country roads turn to swampy mud and freeze again in a span of hours. low lands are covered with fog, down toes and snow falls, impede visibility, paralyzing the work of spotters and anti tank cruise. all this and move has to be factored into the gargantuan equation by both sides. russia planning in advance and

ukraine, holding defensive lines. for these grad walker launches can hit targets up to 40 kilometers away. not only does this range provide relative safety, but also flexibility in picking the best firing position, with the best conditions. with these grad crews will they make an immediate escape?

very often here in the dumbass, everything that separates you between life and death is just minutes. ukrainian forces can be very precise and very quick with return fire. even with grown cameras, blinded by weather rushes, command centers packed plenty of intelligence data. the frontline is vast, but there's only a handful of places where a key forces have developed a habit of masking their equipment at about a month and soon of we work and pensively. we have multiple goals. we constantly pushed the enemy were satisfied with our results. so then we hit both infantry and ukrainian military equipment. so at russia has amassed a powerful fire fist here and is now probing ukraine's defenses. keep troops in turn scatter their perimeters with hundreds of mines. a clear sign that they've abandoned hopes they once cherished to deal another blow to the russian army. here

i'm just done of reporting from the dumbass artsy, wire fervor, nancy europe, where mass rise against arm supplies. the drain swept across the continent over the weekend. producers flooding of the city of london, madrid, milan, and others express their anger over native involvement in the conflict them as they just pulled out the transfer of the lethal near the 80 quinn as well as western sanctions against russia. anti war activists marched with banners pulling on native to go home. berliners also bought flowers, so destroyed russian tank, which is placed in front of the russian embassy by fruit framed processes as a memorial on the walls of one year anniversary. meanwhile, german chancellor shops travelled to india on saturday, where he seized the chance to blame moscow for global energy and food problems. at

the meeting with indian prime minister barrett, the modi you see be shan't be proclaiming since the beginning of the development since ukraine. india has insisted on resolving this dispute through dialogue and diplomacy. india is ready to contribute to any beast process. we have also agreed to the reform of multilateral institutions is necessary to reflect global realities in a better way. this is evident from our active participation within the g for to reform the un security council. but clear quoted 01. chancellor essentially said that he wants to deepen economic and political ties with india. how so on his to day was it or the weekend and this was his 1st with it ever since sir. are taking gum, taking office in 2021, a centrally both the countries signed some agreements, wind also solar and dom, in fact, green hydrogen sector. now this meeting between the german chancellor as well as

the prime minister of india and adding to worthy it don't please just a day after the anniversary of russia offensive in ukraine. now the german chancellor phase that the conflict is hurting developing countries and that it's also causing go fuel as well as food shortages in these countries. but to remember where the green wessel go, the wessel full of greens from ukraine, from unlocked boards. in fact, they were going north to the starving countries of africa, but mainly to europe. in the top, the world is suffering as a consequence of russia's aggression. a very important question is securing the supply of food and energy. we have to make sure that countries in asia, africa, and america not too strongly and negatively impacted by the terrible war of aggression that russia started against ukraine here. and that the impact is not too negative for them. supply shortages is thus the one priority of our work by solo

shots. also he treated about he's a commitment or ceiling. the deal between europe as well as you look in union as well as in the other feature deal. and why do they want to do that? or essentially because of course, a, it is going to strengthen use ties with, in the indoor specifically june. but more importantly, they believe that by doing so, they can father rightfully ma, scores. so basically reading india, we're from russian arms and energy, but it doesn't want that. there's a clear answer to that, nor in fact, or as far as feminist. in the movie during his wizard has been sent a while. he said that the conflict should be sold with dialogue and diplomacy, but, you know, keeping in line with the countries are approach to now. he, in fact, i refrained from saying anything against russia now, mean by last week there was also a g. 20 of finance ministers meet in india and while the finance sheets have

a lot to ponder upon, discuss economic problems. but what really happened was that all of that got overshadowed by the western demands for india to condemn russia now in the us taking a subtle stance. and it's refused to comment on the incident 20 years ago to this day, a raw hungry to destroy its long range ballistic missiles, as was required by the un. but these concessions proved fruitless with the u. s. allies wanting an invasion that left a trail. destruction in the country, killing hundreds of thousands of civilians. there is a special coverage of u. s. war of sarah in iraq. 20 is on at this hour. american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations

to disarm iraq, to free it's people. and to defend the world from great a we with with it took just a one month for the us. i'm as allies saw, couldn't all campaign to take control of baghdad. however, u. s. troops only a fishy withdrew in 2011. over the v is countless families were left shasta young

people's aspirations. the future were left in ruins or the brutal us led invasion. oh, i was a teenager in the tardy area. there was an army training camp and weapons depots and the sites was subjected to heavy bombardment by merican forces. we were teenagers and we were playing football not caring about the shelling a sometimes we would have to hide one date, there was a huge explosion. we did not know that a bomb had fallen on us. 3 children were lying dead, mammy, and i remember that the person who was holding the bull died instantly of me, but i was injured in 2000 sakes while i was playing, i her have a shooting, and then suddenly a mortar landed near me. i was only a child of the time. i was injured in 2008 when i was just riding my bicycle when suddenly i was spinning. i landed on my back and could see my entire stomach hopin and intestines on the ground.

ah o the number of iraqi martyrs who were killed by american forces and car bombs is nearly 250000 the injured are more than 500000. what did they do to deserve this? what has been achieved by invading iraq under the pretext of having weapons of mass destruction. where are those weapons of mass destruction? ah, my life got worse. i left school i couldn't walk and my abdomen was cut open. life weiss, my life is over. as i can't even get a job, my life end and and my future was lost. this destroyed my mother and father especially badly. and after a while they died one after the other. after i lost my foot, the injury affected my life in

a major way. i told myself my life is over. i was just a teenager. how would i live like this? you would ever want to marry me? ah ah ah, ah, the murder and destruction of the iraqi people is a genocide perpetrated by us forces the entry of isis and the further killing of iraqi people. and the security forces are all because of americans. we have evidence and certified documents that prove the u. s bombed and iraqi police patrol simply for being in an area controlled by the us. oh, with a do, you know, gets any compensation even though i submitted all the required documents, only received social welfare payments amounted to

a 170000 dina's which was completely useless. i find that for so presumably the iraq government how to dr. required measure and compensate the wounded at least financially considering they haven't even made any moral apologies. oh, america did not compensate iraqi people for even one diener of its bombings, which destroyed and humiliated the people of iraq. all injuries have been documented and the united states knows this. unfortunately, the killing and blood shedding of iraqi people continues. there is no deterrence, any 2003 was the only america him. and he'll peroration against iraq. back in 1990 iraq faced a di economic situation office war with neighboring iran, then presence and on the same blamed other arab states for over production of oil that reduced energy prices. i'm shrink iraq. he annual export income by billions of dollars at the same time back that of his toys and stealing is oil from the boarder

regence. now bank that also insisted coit should council iraq. he debts after the failure of the iraq, who i talked baghdad, evey this neighbor and occupied it for 2 days. having overwhelming the military soup superiority the global him as he called on iraq to withdraw his troops with bagdad. ignoring the warnings in 2 days, then a u. s. president bush senior, sanctioned the desert storm midfield operation against iraq in one month. the coalition liberated co 8 and a peace treaty was signed with baghdad. as a result of the bombing campaign about 3000 iraqi civilians are estimated have been killed. hundreds of us soldiers and thousands of iraqi troops also lost their lives during the war. my colleague, roy,

sushi spoke to desert storm veterans, daniel bosworth, who compared the 2 military campaigns against iraq in 199091. we had all the military equipment soldiers. we were stopped at the border of iraq. they let saddam hussein stay in power to keep the region stable. right? because you have iran, iraq, i believe in 1090. 91 had the 4th largest military, but then why in 2003, they want it to take him out of power. when they know it's going to open a vacuum. but was saddam hussein a direct threat now to the united states? no. what's he a direct threat to the people of the united states? no, in my opinion, i don't believe so. what do you think, daniel, that america, england, and some of the nato allies? why do you think they chose the middle east?

one? i believe oil one and 2, i believe to make the middle east unstable. there are certain people who like to control through fear. and if you make to the middle east, unstable, and then you you keep pushing the narrative tariff roof. i believe this is a way that they're able to control the people with fear and to be able to have the opportunity to invade other countries. and do you think though, do you think that you said oil which are important for going into iraq? do you really think oil was that important for going and know in the year 2000 there were 7 countries who did not join the us central bank and look.
