a factory in an industrial area in a nearby city israeli forces reported no casualties in the incident. the exchange comes after israeli security forces attack, hundreds of palestinian worshippers injury, slums, ox, or mosque injuring those who come to pray during the holy month of ramadan. the israeli police storm the law so must before dawn on wednesday in occupied east jerusalem using here gas and beating palestinian worshippers. the official palestinian news agency was says, dozens of worshippers were injured. what is really police raided them off? israeli forces say they had to enter the mosque after a mass agitators locked themselves inside with fire were sticks and stones, israel's actions and occupied east jerusalem sparked reaction from jordan,

custodian of jerusalem's christian and muslim holy sides as well as palestine who called on israel to stop escalating the situation. the minister of foreign affairs, an ex patriots condemns the strongest terms, the railway occupation and police storming of the oxen mosque and attacks on the inside. the ministry calls on the israel to immediately remove police and special forces from kuth on sharif. we hold the occupation government fully responsible for any deterioration. it must act responsibly and stop this absurdity which will have dangerous consequences for every one. amid rising tensions between the jewish and palestinian communities, the israeli government has authorized the creation of a national guard following proposals by security minister. it might have been give or to deal with unrest than palestinian communities in the region. the decision has part concerns among israeli politicians and the public. the initiative was launch

last week when israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu agreed to go ahead with security minister ben givers proposal after he back the delay of the controversial judicial reform. a bid nationwide protests, the guard is expected to consist of almost 2000 personnel and receive a budget of over $270000000.00. the exact powers of the new force are to be defined in weeks by a committee made up of israeli security agencies. members of both the jewish era of communities have expressed mixed reactions to the proposal because i think we are, we are is the person who does one piece with arabs and doesn't one piece with juice . he's creating problems for the whole world's broad common name. it is a national guard for everyone. it is for all kinds of frights, rape cases, all kinds of protection for governance, just for special emissions, which a lot of trouble here. it's a mixed population, much crime, there is

a needful protection will not be for those that either men we're explicitly said that it is for the sheer cities during the protest there. i was shot on the face by policemen. while i was just filming what they were doing from my home, been rear wants to kill all the arabs in the country. he will now harass arabs if he establishes this guard to discuss the updates in the region, let's cross live to jerusalem. base metal is expert yoni, bon menachem. welcome yoni. how has israel justified its controversial raid on the ox mustering the holy month of ramadan? these early police, the claims that now what happened during the night of 2000. so the young palestinians barricaded themselves in inside the lock. some austin star started attacking the police force or with the stones and fire works. and they

say cause the police to go into the mosque and arrest. a few 1000 say young for the seniors who were writing in the police said this is an ongoing issue, and this is a result of an ongoing incitement campaign by us in some you kid. she had to cause a problem during ramadan, during the jewish holiday. it's over well, apart from the usual israeli military actions in syria, we've recently seen increasing violence of israeli authorities and security forces toward palestinians. what is the israeli government trying to achieve, especially now when its domestic affairs are such a huge issue? i don't think he's really interested in clashes where with the palestinians, but there is where the security establishment says that they're behind the cisco lation endorse bank of the order with garza and it is

syria. this is a result of a campaign led by miran and there was the called the, it's the story resistance against israel to try and bring in you on a student in the father, the west bank. and this is why this escalation is happening. that's what israel says, well, is that the reality and what could be the consequences of israel's actions further regional security and stability of it's borders? look, i'm sure that everybody knows that the israel is no interest to undermine the stability in the region and to create the escalation list now in the internal crisis. because of the way vote brought tests for israel is not interested in the problems on its borders. and so, but they think that the enemies are trying to take advantage of all of the into

a crisis inside israel and try to take israel from different fronts. well, there are numerous security agencies in israel. what are the reasons behind establishing yet another one? and is it actually targeting error communities? the idea of the national guard not materialize? i think a minute and you know, the prime minister is just the receiving. a come out to the police minister in order to keep the school illusion. but the, on the ground is a stronger position from the police. it served the chief of the police and also from other ministers in these really cabinet. and eventually i don't think that anything will happen is just the local noise, but nothing will materialize. so why is a, is really government so cautious about giving ben giver authority over the new

force it's, it's, it's, it's very careful because a considered an extremist. and then on the other hand, if anyhow, lloyd does not that big coalition without the poppy coalition. so they, he wants to prevent the bid from withdrawing from the coalition. so it has to find a way to satisfy him. but i think that they also been understanding that they will not be able to carry out this plan because of the stronger position jani. been a men i haven't to respond based metal east expert. thank you. thank you very much . ah, for me you as president donald trump has predicted the demise of america as a great power and blame that domestic christ is on the bite in administration. that's just hours after he pleaded not guilty on $34.00 charges, which could land him 130 years in jail. it's an insult to our country as the world

is already laughing at us for so many other reasons, like our open borders are incompetent withdrawal from afghanistan, the most embarrassing time. in our country's history, in my opinion, economy that has been crippled by the biggest inflation we have seen in more than 60 years. our currency is crashing and will soon no longer be the world's standard, which will be our greatest defeat, frankly, in 200 years. there will be no defeat like that that will take us away from being even a great power arctic or a finite kayla martin has been reporting on trump's legal proceedings near the manhattan court. well, history was ne, near in new york city, at the manhattan criminal court, we saw for the 1st time american history, a former president was taken into court and charged with crimes. now donald trump was hit with $34.00 felony charges,

all of them for falsifying business records. and this is related to a ledge. tosh. money being paid to pornographic film star stormy daniels as well as a door man and the magazine that she was employed by. that's the allegation that was made. now donald trump and his dame say this is purely election interference. this is about trying to prevent him from successfully winning the presidency in 2024. and donald trump's legal team called is a sad day. donald trump came to the court house and it was a special arrangement, the secret service arranged for donald trump to briefly go into the police custody appear before the judge enter. he is not guilty plea and then leave the court house and it was certainly not like any other criminal proceeding. we didn't have a situation where the former president had a mug shot i was not fingerprinted. here's what donald trump had to say about the charges that had been brought against him and his arraignment,

and today's court proceedings. there's no k o and this is where we are right now. i have a trumpeting judge with the trumpeting wife and family whose daughter worked for carmenela harris and now receives money from the biden harris campaign and a lot of incredibly, we are now a failing nation. we are a nation in decline. and now these radical left lunatics want to interfere with our elections by using law enforcement. so we'll just have to see how this proceeds. but this was a historic day. donald trump went before the judge, the 1st former president to ever face criminal charges. the violent ministration has that it's not focusing on the case, claiming it has nothing to do with it. that says how speaker kevin mccarthy labeled the proceedings, an act of political vengeance against the former president,

with other top republican figures also voicing their support for trump. the court case has drawn attention to the contrast between washington's reaction to trump's prosecution and the condemnation of the conviction of russian opposition figure alexis vonnie, who was accused of large scale fraud and other crimes and labeled a political prisoner by the us. continue to reiterate our demand for his immediate and unconditional release from from being imprisoned over spurious charges after a sham trial, wrongly condemn the russian federation orchestration of a sham trial. to convict election of only and further spurious charges and sentencing him to 9 more years. and a high security prison, less cross live now to radio host and political commentator, steve gill. good morning steve. now donald trump has just become the 1st president to face criminal charges in

u. s. history. what is your take on this case against them? what is behind this? well, it's clearly a political persecution, and i find it very interesting that all of the leeks that came from the district attorney's office, including the specific number of charges. 34 proved to be true with a case that had less meat on the bones, but it actually came forward then we were told that we carry. but the fact that this district attorney has illegally leaked the number of charges legally. the other information says he's the one who should be prosecuted if there is after i guess, indicted himself for that to happen. i think in the long run, the kind of paraphrase johnson surely an american legal expert. this is going to prove to be like a banana popsicle for the democrats, very tasty and sweet at 1st, but of no nutritional value, and likely to prove very sticky for them as republican da's across the country and in republican controlled cities are likely to seek the same sort of punitive legal action against democrats like hillary clinton, joe, by the,

by the family and friends, others. they've opened this pandora's box. i don't think they're going to like where it is. it seems in many ways this is backfiring. now, washington has stayed silent on trumps or rest, but when it comes to condemning similar cases and other countries like with a lexi lonnie in russia, the u. s. was so quick to voice concerned. what do you make of that stance and what are the reasons behind these contrast thing? responses? i think again, it shows the dual system of justice that the by the justice department has put in place here in the united states. there's actually a lot more basis for the prosecution of devali than there is for president donald trump. and as you point out the by did ministration is condemning that have all the trial calling its already is calling. the trial is sham. when the trump charges are even worse, you've got a partisan judge who's actually pursuing a misdemeanor case against the president. you know, they're claiming this to be

a 130140 years in jail. president, trump will not or 2 minutes in jail, if a legitimate judge looks at these charges that are base list, it will be thrown out. while the on the trial actually has some meet on the bones, actually have some specifics that are, are not being recognized by the by did ministration. and again, i think it shows a severe double standard. and you've also seen the same thing in, in ukraine where president, lindsey has pursued his political enemies in a similar way. and while the budget administration continues to send billions of dollars is a wednesday, they're spending millions of dollars, persecuting president trump in this quest in this country. well, because the american public has seen so many former us presidents commit so many a legit acts and not have any punishment. this is why both supporters and opponents of donald trump had been rallying outside the court house with some scuffles of reported. you think that these protests are likely to escalate? could we see a repeat of the capitol hill?

riots in january of 2021. i'm concerned that you can see provocative tours like we saw on january 6th, where you had actual federal agents capitol hill police who were disguised as trump supporters opening the door, creating some of the violence that occurred that day. and again, keep in mind you had a capital police officer, shoot and kill an unarmed protest for that day. suffer no punishment. they didn't really even do an investigation. so i'm concerned that the same kind of a provocation that you saw in january 6th could occur at one of these rallies in new york around the country. in an effort to again have a false flag, blame the trunk, but supporters for, for what actually happens. what's more interesting to me is that the trump numbers have exploded in terms of his political popularity. he's now about 30 or 40 points ahead of his nearest rival. in the republican primary, even democrats are saying that they will now vote for trump in the general election . we'll see if that theresa into the future. but trump is seeing huge support,

huge rallying around him. it is raised almost $10000000.00 since the time the indictment was 1st announced. i think if they were hoping this would damage president trump little prospect is severely back fired against the democrats. yeah, you mentioned this back firing. do you think that we're going to see other candidates? how do you see this going forward into the 2024 elections? well, i think you'll continue to see democrats get nervous about joe biden, b in their standard barrier. every time you see him speak it's, it's, it's like watching a toddler play with a loaded gun. every time he walks, you see that he's more decrepit, more and capable of, of the basic functions of, of performing as a, as a human individual, much less as a commander in chief or a president. so i think on the democrat side, this will raise even more concerned about whether or not he's the guy who can keep the white house and democrat hands. on the republican side, you're already seeing a call from many that other republican candidates from ron to santas on down the line that they should drop out and support president troughing. because this is

such a travesty to use your political opponents as a target for, for political advantage using the courts to do it. this is disgusting. it is an assault on the american legal system. and i do think it's time for americans and republicans for me to rally behind president trump. if only to say this is gone too far and no means no. when we say using the judicial process against political opponents will be watching closely. radio host and political commentator, steve, gail, thank you. thank you. ah, the e u has again lecture china on its moral duties with europe, thought diplomat threatening beijing with worsening relations as the country string thanks. ties with moscow. physically, expectations for a member of the she couldn't to come to the stand up in defense of international re

shorda and china as a moral duty to contribute to a fair piece that cannot be signing with the aggression. they cannot be needed to. reissue 14, the aggression this is a message to a china the st may, came shortly after china embraced russia's new foreign policy strategy. that sets the strength in its partnership with new delhi and beijing with the chinese foreign ministry, expressing readiness to jointly address he global challenges. to lead single ado should you, china rush and india are all imagine powers with significant influence against the backdrop of profound and complex change in the international and regional situation . where i read to strengthen communication with russia. indian, now the members of the international community to send a positive signal of upholden genuine multilateralism and jointly trusting global challenges. we. the statement of the chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman followed moscow adopting its

u foreign policy concept. the strategy sets the strength and deepening of relations with russia and india, as russia's top diplomatic priority. benjamin chao professor at the southwestern university of finance and economics in china, who says the 3 countries want to stand up to washington bid to d, globalize the world, and address global issues together with i think as a signal to the will of all low to not to so a boy and more balanced, well, i believe up a more problem responses to real challenges to welders facing today. i think the main direction in prospect call for so chinese cooperation is about in more direct responds to global challenges. now we're seeing that there was a poultry cam and there was this can lead by edition in the united states studies showing a clear trend of equalization,

which could feel wars as trays more segregated and worries becoming more serious on india and china should not let the boundary issue affect the overall bilateral relationship. so the message is slowing korean, the have or the exchange views about the issues and have expressed a will to work together to improve the relationship as china, russia, and india deep in their relations western countries. i've been trying to drive a wedge between the powers that has e leaders had to be ging in an attempt to woo the asian power to their side are to contribute. rachel mars then explains french president a menu, and mccall is visiting china from april 5th to 7th. and it said the invitation of chinese president, she's in pain and president, she probably didn't have to ask twice, either a welcome relief from the relentless anti mac hole pension reform protests in paris

and across france. no doubt. it's kind of like being given the opportunity to take a break from your house. fire. yes, please. me right over. so who's he bri along. his favorite school arm. no, not. the former high school drama teacher. he married rashid. but ursula vander line. european commission president and self appointed global haul monitor, and also some 60 french executives specifically from industry like in a case he did of hall sir, or deaf water management company. in vidalia, the multinational rail company, austin, which has longstanding joint ventures with china. and also the european aerospace multinational airbus which has been talks recently over a jet order for china. now at some point, my cool and europe really need to land some darks on the board. as far as trade deals, especially in the wake of washington's new protectionist measures ushered in with a bite administration inflation reduction act, which essentially favors american industry to the detriment of it's european

competitor. so on one hand, mac ho needs some economic winds. but on the other, he reportedly wants to try to convince china to influence russia's actions in ukraine. it's not like europe or michael could be bothered to influence washington's actions in ukraine in the interest of securing peace, though they just blindly followed washington's anti russian agenda. even to their own economic detriment. but now they want to drag china into this whole mess, which it has man so far to just side step in terms of any kind of involvement. michael may try to turn on the good old french charm during this visit, but with vander, line unto that's conway, showing up at a dinner party with someone who can't stop publicly bad mo thing. you and your choice of friends. awe on being put off by the atrocious and illegal

invasion of ukraine president, she is maintaining his no limits, friendship with putin. china has now turned the page on the area of reform, an opening and is moving into a new era of security and control lever to europe's top unelected bureaucrats to substitute diplomacy for virtue. secondly, rhetoric, not sure how attacking someone before arriving on the doorstep is going to grease the skids for future cooperation. but china offered to help vander, lines, say, face replying, that she didn't even write the words that were coming out of her mouth. that speech contain a lot of misrepresentation on the misinterpretation alti news policies and the chinese positions. on the one side, she realizes that it is important for euro,

and he does in the interest of europe, who engage with china and are the same time. and he is also fearful of the criticism. yeah, it is it, european leaders false that they lack the backbone to withstand washington's pressure, to the detriment of europe's own interests. it's all like that's their actual job or anything. but making statements suggest that china knows that the rhetorical lunacy and skits of framing are coming from european officials, stems from the desire to keep washington onside on one hand, but also to maintain ties with china as even bonder line herself, concedes we need to focus on di risk not decoupled. we must leave space for discussion on a more ambitious partnership, and on how we can make competition, sarah, and more disciplined. so for all the criticism level at china, the fact is that my coin laundry line are set to meet with various high level

chinese officials on this visit, including the chinese premier and the chairman of the chinese national legislature . so all the nasty rhetoric in the world really can't mask the fact that despite washington's anti china ambitions, beijing is still one of europe's top trading partners. and that's why we're seeing european leaders on these recent field trips to beijing during this economically challenging time for the block, which essentially results from their own unforced errors amid the conflict ukraine . to the front lines and don bass now were russian troops are on the offensive in the loop guns republic targeting the ukranian military with high position artillery and heavy rocket launchers as russian tanks play a pivotal role in the battle around the town of cream and naya ortiz were at godaddy of reports from the ground. we must warn you, you may find some of the images disturbing. the land around the grim and naya is

rent and scarred by almost half a year of fighting. it continues, night and day. this is but one episode ah, a russian t $72.00 tank of the euro volunteer battalion takes on a fortified ukrainian position. the task was to keep them busy, was to be like a mother. we were told that some 4 troops just to the right of the ukrainians, had become traveller. there were several killed and injured and they couldn't be evacuated because of the cross fire. though sheryl joe was to suppress the crown in position or was it out as a group my tank into infantry fighting vehicles. the ukrainian soldiers and mercenaries who there are plenty of here. were waiting for them. no sooner had they arrived that an r p g round impacted on the barrel of the tank. it would be the soldier's

last ever shot. it is kill or be killed. no quarter is given. the t 72 and its commander cache gave the entrenched ukrainians no opportunity to fire back. the next tag crowd takes out. 3 more troops. shell off to shell decimated the ukrainian position tanks are the bane of infantry and are one of the most feared weapons on the battlefield. this is why i'm you do another one which we had to help the injured you. the critical injury. the guys had legs missing, the manics ran around and little vest trying to help them and i'm in a huge tank. well, protected milligram danger doesn't come into it. like crews are almost always highly superstitious folk. it. it comes with being the prime target on almost any battlefield. they were lucky and our pg shell round rockets can and it's a, it's

a tag at the right angle lease case. the r b g round hit the bow, t shrapnel or over the place. but it caused no significant damage. let me pull for yak, a hospital. all i remember was a bright flashlight, the thermal disappear on the ball was torn apart. so you were lucky. got more than lucky we got is on our side. and so it goes, but terrible grinding war of attrition that is reshaping the very geographical landscape, same scenes duplicated for hundreds of kilometers. and when this ends, the world will have changed to more at gazda of archie from logan's creegan. and that's right for the our thanks for joining us for the latest breaking news and updates head over to r t dot com. and don't forget to follow us on all social media platforms. we'll see back in the company our

ah
