a prominent russian business man. konstantin malo, fe of the russian federal security service has said that the assailant intended to plant a bomb in his car. similar to the case of journalist aria, do you know who was murdered by ukrainian agents last year in the moscow region? authorities have released footage that shows a suspicious person walking around the business bands, car doing something to it, and then leaving the scene, they say the crime was organized by ukraine based terrorist organization, also responsible for recent attack on civilians in russia's brianne region. here's how konstantin mallow, phase of himself has reacted to all of this in response to numerous concerns from friends, i inform you everything is all right with me. thank god, there was no harm done. i hope that all those responsible for the murder of daria

b says that this latest assassination attempt was supposed to be executed in the same manner as the murder of 4 young journalists and a daughter of a russian philosopher. azaria, duke and i in moscow, in august of last year. now that crime was reportedly prepared and committed by ukrainian special services according to the f as b. now the perpetrator was a citizen of ukraine who later fled to estonia following this gruesome murder. now though such events are rarely covered in death by western mainstream media, vis and other neo nazi organized but so fail, terrorist acts have grabbed some attention in the west hamlet. he rushing, volunteer, cool, allied by figure, well known to him and those who liddy transnational saw right dentist capuchin. now the anti defamation league has dennis capuchin, as a russia neo nazi who live in germany for many years has train young members of the far right national democratic party of germany and others. he also has ties to the

as always, in the as old brigades, which is the ukrainian extremis fall right group as well. so when production goes policy and says he tech was carried up by neo nazis. there's an element of truth of that statement. though they're talking about sir denisa caputo thing there. and this same person has also been linked with organizing a terrorist act in this city of vulgar grad in russia. last year. russian security services foiled of attempt to blow up an oil and gas facility, and they kill the perpetrators at that time once again f as b believe. that's all of these crimes, by neo nazis, were sanctions by officials in key of a latest revelations by self exile, former russian politicians and well heads, all 4 armed groups themselves that they allegedly control prove the same point are che correspondence. roman closer if thank you very much. now the

latest from the ukranian conflict, as russian troops have almost completely surrounded the key strategic city of arte, almost more reports coming in that ukranian troops are having trouble retreating from the area. this new drone put it shows ukrainian forces pinned down by artillery fire. you can see numerous bodies of ukrainian soldiers lying on the side of the road. this comes as kev, reportedly lost one of its most combat capable units in our film of despite the destruction and ongoing fighting, many civilians continue living in art, the most also known as moot ukrainian authorities claim at least 4000 people have remained in the city. moscow has repeatedly stated that the ukrainian army is using civilians as human shields, hiding its artillery and other heavy vehicles inside residential areas. meanwhile, german tv channel has made a stark admission on why local residence could be staying in the city where the

correspondence adjusting people were actually awaiting the arrival of the russian army. gotta fight, but would in the case of bombing and in general, and don bass, i'm sure there are people who say or perhaps keep in their thoughts that they are waiting for russia to come, because they would rather take a pro russian physician get done. meanwhile, we spoke to colleagues and relatives of for medics killed by ukrainian showing less than 2 weeks ago. the ambulance seamless struck by the ukrainian army while it was working to aid the victims of a previous bombardment. for its online appears to show a ukrainian drone surveilling the site as a specific target. here's what a colleague and family member of one of the victims told us about the attack. those rascals over the last mule, he was a kind compassionate man. we understood that his job was hard for the last year and a half. he had been working all the time in the areas that were all the more shalley. he didn't tell us much about his work because he was worried about me

about my mother. why my father always wanted to do good because he knew that would be rewarded. he did good deeds is safe adults and children. he was motivated by law for his fellow countrymen and his homeland mover and approaching from what's happened for you that day. graham troops were shelling, denounced. the ambulance was out on a call mission. a treacherous act was committed by the ukraine army, which fired as a doctors who were providing assistance in trying to evacuate the victims. unfortunately, all members of the medical emergency team for people were killed. the shelling of surveillance continues, but people still go to work and perform their duties. this is not only medical workers, it's all services, emergency services, the police, all those people who make sure the cities functional are working. none of them knows whether they will come under fire. before the 2nd strike,

which directly hit the ambulance, there were fire fighters at the scene, helping the victims of the 1st strike. they were also here in the 2nd round of shelling. luckily they escaped death and were only wounded. here's what they told us. what to do with her chin. we received a report that billed him with people in it had been destroyed, all team was dispatched, madell location was so an ambulance whose crew was threading the wounded court as we started looking for more casualties in the building. we saw a flash and her de la bang from a mine boss. we were all injured nerve to come to julie. this my 2nd time this year been injured. it happened while i was putting out the fire last time shell exploded right beside us. i'm sure that they can see perfectly well from above, that it's the emergency. so she is working and then they hid the nearest building, thus chime, we didn't think it could be deliberate, but now it's obvious. and other developments rushes defense minister survey showing who has visited the don yet for public to inspect ongoing work on rebuilding the

regions infrastructure. in particular, the city of mario pool has a brand new residential area, including schools and a medical center. there's also a pipeline that will bring water to several rural areas. those construction projects began right after the act of fighting ended in the area with thousands of local civilians now returning to their peaceful way of life. this comes as more volunteers from russia are signing up to take part in the military operation, arts easy or stone of visited one of the training sites in the daniel republic to learn about the important fighting skills taught to new soldiers. they run, they prone out on the ground. they shoot, they know the better they do here at an anonymous drill site in the next republic. the higher the chance they'll be 1st to catch the enemy in their site. ah,

the fighters of the russians special forces unit viking, they're making ready basically they're teaching russian volunteer fighters in the dumbass, preparing them for some very difficult combat that they're expected to face later in this war. these volunteers abandoned their measured lives, families plans to aid their country in the time they are needed most, their potential slyly patriot of my country. and i understand that our country is going through a hard time right now. i cannot sit at home, we need to resolve these issues instead of just sitting around. so i signed a contract and went to dumbass. i have children at home,

i love them very much. the whole family was shocked by my decision, but i convinced them that neither my parents nor grandparents were cowards. this must be done. yes, the girls the would to well, someone has to do this job. if everyone shies away from it, then he will defend the motherland. therefore, i made a decision, gathered my gear and went to enlist my parents think that i serve at the headquarters, but i'm not actually that my girlfriend knows the truth when you, but my mother is too old for that. many trainees here have no previous service record. here they get invaluable experience. first aid, tactical movement, gun handling, and of course, target practice. everything is on the curriculum here, low, but up, bold, remiss i served in the armed forces, but i had no combat experience. therefore, i've been here for a month and a half while undergoing intensive training. we get very tired, but as general swore of once said it was hard and training will be easy in battle. worse causes it gets to real combat conditions,

both psychologically and physically in columbia. yes, that i think it's prestigious, defending the motherland. that will be something to tell my grandchildren about problems and we should all be here. every one who's healthy can hold a weapons and is physically ready. and why not? there's a real military brotherhood here. we are all from the same republic. we're doing our duty. some of russia's most battle hardened delete soldiers have taken up the role of instructors. luscious long as others show lance. our task is to teach the basics of combat training and 1st aid to volunteers, and also to convey to the commanders that it's necessary to use the people entrusted to them wisely. we teach them to shoot and adapt. the results are definitely there in this training helps to minimize losses. our main goal is to save lives. ah, the pant heavy but follow every order,

rinse and repeat. training here is no formality. it's a matter of life and death. i'm a guest done of reporting from the dumbass r t ah french president. emanuel micron is question about hypocrisy with the countries sanctions policy during his tour of africa. france has an aggressive stance against russia, but hasn't imposed sanctions against for wanda, for it's a legit support of the m. 23 insurgent group fighting just across that country's border in the democratic republic of congo. because i don't kill up hoss. we can see that france is not active enough in condemning rwanda in demanding sanctions against it, but you are doing this aggressively against russia. it's why there is such a lack of assistance in regard to the d r c. difficulties. and so that goes, we agree with the asi presidential acadie on the need to give the peace plan a chance would have the opportunity to resolve the conflict with am 23. today's not

the time to force things by those who will interfere with implementation of this plan, know what they are risking include and sanctions. the front president's tour of africa was marred by protests as locals have demanded that the former colonial power leave the continent for good. nevertheless, my crown pledge that his country has no plans to interfere in the domestic affairs of african nations. just a head of microns arrival in kinshasa, some congolese demonstrated against his trip to their country outside the french embassy in kinshasa. the crowds accused him a crown of backing lawanda, which the d. r. c claims is supporting the m $23.00 enables in east, off the nation. oh, so important to know to that, to, for decades now, the democratic republic of congo has been the scene of the world's longest running

conflicts. currently, tens of thousands of people have become displaced, a since heavy fighting raged in the eastern t r. c, between congolese army and in 2030 rebels. it's clear that to relations between the 2 countries have gone from bad to worse. what can shasta accusing to guiding of supporting the m 23 rebels resurgence? i sending its own troops into eastern congo. the one that denies any involvement, but the d. r. c is sol calling for international communities to sanction to wanda and force it to stop supporting militants. microns has been saying that it was the spirit of partnership and collaboration with african countries. but many don't see these plans coming to fruition because for decades now, francis action during the genocide was and still is the subject of intense debate in africa. and critics accusing france of not having done enough to prevent the

massacre even actively supporting the government responsible for the genocide. this despite micron, saying that france was not complicit in the genocide people who did a football. it's not francis fault. i'm sorry to say in such blunt terms, you have not been able to restore the sovereignty by the military, more security, nor administrative, or your country. this is also a reality. we must not look for culprits outside lucifer. last have been mentioning microns tor of africa, revived old colonial was sparking po tastes even as a micron, tried to convince the population that the era of france a freak has come to an end to thursday. the 4th week, lisa shall fall into africa is well and truly over. and i sometimes have the feeling that mentalities on aut, evolving at the same pace is also when i read, i hear i see claims that france has intentions, that it does not have that it no longer house. now it's clear that to paris is the thinking to protect economy. areas that it has always taken for granted,

which are now subject to increased competition from major powers, such as russia, china, and india. and at this point, many see frances move as a way to remain in the continent market. russia remains india's top crude oil in puerto for a 5th street month with a record $1600000.00 barrels per day in february, as indian refiners relish a discounted russian oil. moreover, russia has started shipping exports, including energy resources to india via the new international north south transport corridor. russia's 1st deputy prime minister, has announced that the transportation of cargo through the route is expected to reach 32000000 tons by the year 2030. iran has already turned into a vital hub along that route. as our t contributor use of july, ali explains hundreds of tons of fresh car,

though are unloaded every day at the border terminal in northeast there, on the frontier, crossing is now turning into a trance at top for commodities bounce from russia to the persian gulf coastal countries in india, the 1st tre train under russia to india route entered iran through the surroundings border. crossing last july and officially launched the eastern section of the north south railway corridor. the head of the ox, special economic zones says almost 85 percent of ones. rail transit occurs through this water crossing. the car goes include food and agricultural products, energy. i'm petrochemical is that the racks has one of the greatest capacities on this border. given the fact that it enjoys the largest railway stations in the country, and one of the largest customs facilities with an area of roughly 5300 head tears if it offers an opportunity for economic activists from iran and neighboring

nations. and the commonwealth of independent states, as well as the indian subcontinent and china to use the border crossing for commercial exchanges in the fields of export import and transiting. we predict the transit capacity of at least $10000000.00 tons per year through this border crossing with the countries, the indian subcontinent and pakistan located in the northeastern cross on province on the border with turk minutes. then sax terminal is part of the eastern branch of the international north, south transit corridor, which connects the eastern edge of europe to the indian ocean. the 7200 kilometer trade route has 3 main sections, all passing through iran to reach india. the north south corridor has multiple modes, ship rail road routes, which was 1st launched in 2000 on the initiative of iran, russia, and india. today in conferences, 11 more countries, including turkmenistan turkey are by john,

all man into g. his 10 dead bass said regarding rush. hm, the c i us, india, and china. iran is one of the most secure, accessible and cheapest paths of transit for the international market. yet, specifically, these capabilities for transit are seriously being followed up during president's race's administration. our correspondence with middle asian states and russia, and also iran succession to this shanghai cooperation organization. creates such capabilities, said embassies down the emerging north south corridor is more cost effective and saves a great deal of travel time. for example, if russia instead use the conventional deep sea, so as canal route a shipment would have to sail 14000 kilometers, taken about one and a half months to reach india. but using the new network, it takes less than 2 weeks to russia and iran mapping gao. 10 alternative trade route is not just about providing a shortcut for transit with european shipping routes. being closed up did one in

moscow. now look at the north south corridor. as a back door to trade, their goods away from u. s. and e u sanctions. the 2 countries are spending billions of dollars to speed up the completion of their multimode transit network while under tremendous pressure from western sanctions. experts believe the north south corridor offers the sanctions, proved path for trading russian and iranian goods. this is because the route is mostly inland, which is harder for the sanctioning countries to control, let, to let you have a shadow. and he considering the international situation and what has happened in ukraine, there are capabilities for us to use. well, we're witnessing the fact that the companies which are active in caea is countries and russian. their attention and investment into this border, which is a special economic zone, is increasing day by day that it appears that global geopolitical developments are re shaping trade networks as well. the north south corridor is now making good name

for itself as the new silk wrote in the eastern hemisphere. use of generally r t from set arcs border terminal. the speaker of the hungarian parliament says that the massive scale military aid sent by some western powers to ukraine, makes them direct participants in the conflicts. those are who does not wish to label nato, and will you members have already sent him? cradled one of the belligerent salon was lethal military means worth almost 60000000 dollars occurred. this means that separate you and nato states are participants of this war. it though not directly fighting on the battlefield. yes, for lack educator. despite the you having already dedicated 3600000000 euros for military assistance to ukraine. it now plans to allocate another 1000000000 for artillery, but ukraine's president zalinski still demands new supplies from the west complaining of a shortage of ammunition and aircraft. meanwhile,

it seems that tensions between the nato blah and some european countries are rising . r t contributor rachel marston explains, sold to was once considered pretty much a pacifist is now pumping up the military industrial complex warmer. she investing moreno defense and it is absolutely clear that we will go to 2 percent of our g. d p, as has agreed in lay too. because we already have the highest defense budgeted european union to be very clear as germany. but we are willing to priestess, that's interesting. german defense minister boris for story is set the tone recently by saying that the country can't currently defend itself militarily. strange thing to emit out loud by the way even wants to now buy back some german made leopard 2 tanks from switzerland because apparently it gave so many leopard, one tanks away to ukraine that it lacked tanks for itself. it's like someone on the

street corner asking you for money. so you hands him, your bank card. he completely drained your bank account and then oops, are stuck on the street and pegging for cash yourself. just another example of the amazing foresight and strategic savvy that we hear in europe have come to expect from our leaders and mid this conflict in ukraine. but for poland, germany can't yet more of its weapons out the door to ukraine fast enough, and it wants berlin to pick up the pace. poland has already sent its own german tanks to ukraine and is wondering why jeremy's own tanks are apparently taking the scenic route in getting to ukraine. poland also hasn't forgotten that germany owes them money for reparations. from world war 21.3 trillion euros to be exact, and germany is basically hiding on the floor with. busy lights off whenever pulling comes knocking at the door, demanding that payment, kind of the same strategy that berlin seems to be adopting towards poland weapons

demands for ukraine. and it's really no wonder because protesters in frankfort on saturday were demanding. he's talks an end to germany and nato's army of ukraine, just like in previous protests the weekend prior in berlin and the ram sign airbase. meanwhile, serbia has denied recent reports that it has been discreetly shipping weapons, including thousands of rockets to ukraine via turkey. me, me for pro deline yoga. we have not sold any weapons or ammunition to russia or ukraine for serbia in accordance with international laws. there are so called permitted users or end users. and serbia can only export to such countries. they said to us, you export it through turkey year, but this is how we protected ourselves in addition to the law. and we even added a clause on the possibility of re exporting the ammunition that we sold there without our consent. rob seems like, who gets is sticking to his guns with respect to not army ukraine despite

a lot of pressure coming from other you countries. so that's pretty much the closest thing we seen here in europe to a backbone in quite a while. but ukraine keeps asking for a lot more of what europe apparently isn't really able to give. and the sense of urgency from ukraine suggests that things aren't really going to well, for here in this conflict, the commission came up with a plan last week to ramp up artillery production. but that's not something that can really happen overnight. and in the meantime, the finger pointing between european allies seems set to continue and made confusion and the u on further support to care of european commission president ursula fonder lane is expected to visit washington for talks with us president joe biden, among the issues to be discussed is china's a legit intention to supply weapons to russia. this comes as western media was spreading the narrative that china plans to send weaponry to russia to be used in

the ukraine conflict. the outlets refer to some us officials claims on the issue, despite both china and russia denying any such intentions. some western officials have threatened imposing sanctions on beijing, if it supplies weapons to moscow. the western establishment media has also been supporting washington's rhetoric that china is a major threat to us national security. some reports claim that chinese made cranes operating in american ports could be used by the asian country as an espionage tool hiding in plain sight. but those reports fail to provide concrete evidence. the accusations towards bay gene. com as china has become the world leader in the technological sector. our research reveals to china has built the foundations to position itself as the world's leading science and technology superpower. by establishing a sometimes stunning lead in high impact research across the maturity of critical

and emerging technology domains. the research shows the other world powers are losing the global technology raised to china with the asian country dominating and 37 of the 44 spears being assessed. those included key defense and space related technologies. the u. s. is the head in some fields such as quantum computing and vaccines. china's leadership in most technological fields, is one of the main reasons why senior officials in washington, you beijing, as a threats. as china's economy has grown more than 10 fold, since gaining access to u. s. and world markets, we must deter the aggression by the ccp. we investigate and expose the ideological technological, economic, and military threat posed by the chinese communist party. we may call this

a strategic competition, but it's not a polite tennis match. this is an existential struggle. that's her up on the top stories. this our for more up to the minute updates head over to r t dot com. thanks for tuning in. we'll see a back at the top of the hour. ah, very travel canada hasn't been very good ah, to indigenous women and girls who have been missing or found murdered because of the structural racism history, the cloning history that canada has worked, indigenous people and communities. and it's so shameful history and a history that canada doesn't like to talk about not until just introducing.
