things that could have happened on the eastern night. apparently it was a standard grad miss. ho barrage pupils began lloyd on the ground. the ground shook . the smell of gunpowder is still there, but it is unclear what is happening. there was a guy who was at the church service. he was injured. they say he got hit in the stomach. there were 2 hits, it was very loud. they say there are more people there, but i didn't see them. she was still in some kind of movement showing signs of life that it got worse and worse. now the ambulance came. meanwhile, a kindergarten has also been head during the ukrainian attacks igniting the building. as you can see in the footer to the place has fully engulfed the building, destroying it, and nearby premises with a fur for founders on the scene. working tirelessly to contain the fire, there have been no reports of casualties. we spoke to the kindergartens head about what happened you, me up thought it was with the gatekeeper called me at 4 o'clock. he said that

charles landed near the kindergarten. the windows had been blown out than they called me and told me that the annex was on fire and as a fire brigade had been called, thank god, no one was heard. this is not the 1st time our building has been struck. it happened 1st of february 19, and now it's happening again. and in the embattled city of hart, your mosque also known as boss, moot, p. m. c. wagner, troops and their cheese. you have getting pre gorgeous, have helped civilians evacuate after celebrating eastern together. you voting simply for those who died in this war. you oh, you're with them and the boys, the storm troopers, they even helped us carry our bags. i was touched to be honest. the red cross estimates, there are thousands of people still living in our feel mosque, which became a brutal war zone last year. according to authorities in the don. yes,

republic, ukrainian nationalists are using them as human shields. to stall the russian advance. there have been local reports that the care of regime has been taking away children in order to force parents to choose ukrainian humanitarian corridors instead of one set up by moscow. while ukraine strikes churches and don, yes, get also persecutes practitioners. authorities in kiev have announced that orthodox easter is banned in the capital. a mandated curfew has been put into effect in order to forbid churchgoers from attending traditional evening masses. however, catholic easter last week was not prohibited that comes as the ukrainian orthodox church has been banned in multiple ukrainian regions following weeks of arrest and harassment of its clergy. and in some cases the burning of temples. to add insult to injury, prayers and russians have been forbidden and calves most well known sanctuary.

however, in his easter speech, the nations president failed to mention his attempts to push out ethnic prussian i sincerely congratulate ukrainians and all christians who i celebrate in easter to day. we may have different religions, but we all believe in freedom. this is what religious freedom look slight key of style. monks be evicted from a place they've called home for decades. the authorities been cheered on by people with not seen speier, tattoos, and far riots. insignia ah, that smell of european freedom. ah . so what is at the heart of the matter, while

t of us trying to cleanse its churches from anyone they deem pro russian ban in their awesome language and its churches and even threatening the leadership of the ukranian orthodox church with jail time. the law and the responsibility for violating it are the same for every one and a cassock is no guarantee of pure intentions, crushes using religion to promote propaganda and divide ukrainian society. the leader of the monastery metropolitan puzzle has now been placed under house arrest for 2 months. yeah. ready busy i didn't do anything wrong. i know this is a political case because i was told to switch to the key of backed orthodox church of ukraine, but i refused to. i was threatened. the security service of ukraine came to me and said, a criminal case should be opened against me. so watts if millions still follow him as part of the ukrainian orthodox church, not to be confused with the rival church created just 4 years ago, which was named iran. confusingly, the orthodox church of ukraine. the government decided to terminate

a long held lease agreements with the old church and throw them out of the key of picturesque lava the new arrival of church than silk over the orthodox christmas service in january. and now they're conducting east to services there, while ukrainian security forces i harass increase across the country and essentially locked in up the spiritual leader who had been there for years. and this though, the most famous one so far is just one of dozens of criminal cases against priest in the korean orthodox church. we've seen the west regularly form at the mouth of our gay rights gender writes, well, what about religious rights? does that not mean anything any more or only when it comes to ukraine, but it's all falling on the west? death ears as no one is making a big deal out of priests been thrown out, evicted, rated and persecuted in ukraine. since they are suspected of having a positive you of russia,

i guess they don't deserve human rights. i tell you mister president and all of your gang, our tears won't fall on the ground. they will fall on your head today. you think that by coming to power on our backs on our will, you can treat us like that. god will not forgive you and your family for this deed . because today in these holy moments, 220 brothers are thrown by you on to the street. woe to you be afraid. we spoke to a serbian bishop who says that no matter what the conflict is, the church is not at war and should not be persecuted. honestly, they have begun to consider the russian orthodox church as well as russia, as their enemies. more precisely, the ukrainian orthodox church, which has autonomy and is actually independent from the moscow patriarch it. but maintains context with it as to all other churches, including our own, the serbian church in ukraine, esc is magic, illegal,

and non existent. church is being promoted as a state church that is conducting an inquisition. the leverage is a center of orthodoxy for eastern slavic peoples. even if someone does not like the concept of a russian world for ukrainian citizens, it is as sacred as for other people who lived in the one state for centuries. that was when there was still no concept of an independent ukraine to persecute the church is to shoot ourselves in the foot. you cannot infringe on sanctuaries, whatever goals you are pursuing. the church is not at war. it cannot and should not be at war. this is a direct persecution of the church 56 that in hundreds more injured as the reports of heavy fighting between artists have fair military forces and the sudanese army enters the 2nd day. let's get more details from sir don. bass. journalist michael

a teeth. what's the situation on the route ground right now, michael. ok, thank you for helping me get this this morning. you still terms. more gunfire and shooting can still be heard around the the military have in the capital come to the got to him is a national airport. we don't know exactly how the ground from the discipline equal to see it's small and you hear a lot of gun fire around that area. and both parties have been claiming controlling the continental national airport and the 1st mission. but up to this moment we certainly we aren't sure who is controlling which location the moment they need to have it be rising in that that's all.

but definitely when the continuation of the fighting the debt on that as well as the injuries as you suspected, right? but this is, i said many by the endorse. that is, there is no much movement at the moment as we speak. it's only about to be let it be easy for people to move and try to get some grocery and food for their michael, there are reports coming in that the student needs army has taken control of several r as a basis across the country. you have information on this you know, in this situation, each site he's trying to, to give a good image of, of the ability of,

you know, and come to exit information has been going on since yesterday. the military has been living there, checking out when they're been saying the same thing, but we understand and somebody will fall into submission trying to win. and they also do use the media not to send a message of capability and message or as we are guarding all. but at this moment this is not clear. we kitchen is controlled by well, you mentioned both sides have been trying to say they have control, but does the rest, in your opinion, stand a chance in these clashes that

if i didn't iraq yesterday and up to this moment, as i mentioned it last night as being sleep last night in so fighting could continue after this moment. this is more than 24 hours that that should be getting confused and all that gives you the case that you see having a ground having a problem to over to the city and take control over the existence insufficient in the country. michael, a take a so don bass journalists, thank you very much. the army is reported to have reclaimed national television headquarters over night. that's after our s. f forces seized control of the

building on saturday and suspended the channels broadcast. mob did loudly lead enough about my son will understand though. the un security council has also called on the warring parties to immediately halt military actions. let's take a closer look at how the events have unfolded. ah, cut grove joins, and we woke to the sound of wiring. we were really scared, as we so armed forces in full gear. the army forces checked everywhere possible, all rosalind to the capital, the presidential office and critical areas of the capital were closed. we can't feel other views as the foreign is ongoing and there are forces that would detect us if we do that we are so terrified right now.

just recently we heard bombings and the sound of screaming. now the atmosphere in the city is less aggravated after the armed forces bombarded r. s f. positions that i think is, is the calm before the storm. as the r s f stated, they will dispatch their forces here.

amid the chaos sensor, dan neighboring chad has closed its borders with a country. several nations including russia, are concerned about the escalation and our calling for a ceasefire. the dramatic events taking place in sudan cause serious concern in moscow. we call on the parties to the conflict, to show political will and restraint and take urgent steps towards a ceasefire. we proceed from the fact that any disagreements can be settled through negotiations. we've heard among some of the other i neighboring countries, for instance, we've heard in egypt, foreign ministry coming out of the statement thing that the edge both parties to de escalate and move into a state that would allow for negotiations and allow for progress to be made towards a transitional government, egypt is following with great concern, the developments in sudan with the ongoing clutches there is calls on also any spots still exist, maximum,

restrain to protect the lives and capabilities of the brotherly sudanese people. and so the whole, the supreme interests of the homeland albany blinking also came out with a statement as the u. s. secretary fe saying that there might be other players who are in the region. and again is the formation of a transitional government. it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we and, and other countries are trying to are to bolster. and we've also heard from the us ambassador to sedan, john godfrey, who says that they are continuing to take shelter and this thing away from the windows and fights. and that you know, that they're worried about. the record gunfire sounds and the hearing outside of their compound in khartoum and the urge both players to de escalate. and

to re me move into a position of authority from both the representatives of the iris f as well as to dance army. now back on to the anthony blinking, had intimated that there should be a swift, formation of a civilian lead government, which would facilitate the end lead to a creation of a civilian government in a country that really has not enjoyed any stability since the ousting of omar russia back in 2019. so then being part of this, i held us worried that this conflict could further am balls are those that are fighting within that reason the routing about countries like shed and countries that have known instability. see, because that is what surroundings today we're talking about. ethiopia was recently had its own civilian conflict. and we're talking about countries such as

a tree. and we were looking at south sudan, which has really been the more stable of the neighbors. but as an instability in sudan would ultimately spill over into other countries and could prevent a really prolong strive for that region. and there is a big worry around what could happen in the region as a whole. especially when one looks at the flow of guns that have been readily available within that region. so it's, it's a big concern, but of course it's worth noting that neither if your pia nor chant or a chia or sal sedan had offered any statements from the ministry. with regards to the ongoing conflict in sweden independent journalist and a member of the african human security index, dennis cody says, international intervention is much needed.

the french government intends to accelerate reforms responding to the worries and anger of the population. so shifting over to france, that's the message coming from the country's prime minister, following the adoption of controversial pension reforms by president emanuel m a chrome new covers saw in bed yonder of what passing through serious times in which a tough for many of our fellow citizens wall is at the gates of europe. the consequences of climate change is agreeable. rising prices, the feeling that public services is slipping away. democracy. so we have a duty to listen to our constituents to listen to that worry and so fears and anger whores. exactly. that statement follows numerous protests against raising the country's retirement age by 2 years, during which police violently suppressed many demonstrators. ah

ah, the protest started back in march and in golf, not only the capital but a number of other cities, including marseilles, into lou demonstrator set cars, garbage and even a police station on fire. the french president defended the bill, saying it would help avoid pension deficits. yet, according to polls, he failed to convince 2 thirds of a population with the pension age rise, becoming the biggest domestic challenge of microns 2nd term. local say the initiative is a manifestation of what they call a talker. c v. club know that we must not forget the wireless initially came from the bosses in the form of enforcing employment support, enforcing 2 more years of working for miserable wages. let me know,

i'd like to push on not to best way to frame the order of the days, a definitive and total retreat of a villainous project, which is a nationwide insult to what walker sockeye. oh, for me, this is the ultimate slap in the face of decisions. they are autocratic and no longer reflect the democracy that is supposed to be in france to day. but and angry and poland have imposed a temporary ban on import of grain and other food products from ukraine. warsaw says the move is aimed at protecting its domestic food market. while budapest is afraid of economic destabilization due to the uncontrolled inflow of cheap produce, he has a backup, poland, accusing of going back on a previous feel. the decisions of the polish side contradict our agreements. we understand that polish farmers are in a difficult situation, but we emphasize that ukrainian farmers are in the most difficult situation right now. in recent months,

the influx of cheap ukrainian grain into european countries has led to plummeting. profits for local producers force off bad on imports comes just days after polish farmers riley in protest near the border with your brain. the transit of korina across the e. u has flooded low for markets, foolish protest, or se graham supplies from should be sealed like weapons shipments to prevent european markets from oversaturated. and poland isn't the only u country where farmers have been protesting in bulgaria, grain producers, riley last month. also it gives you cranium, grain imports. in a recent letter to the european commission, the prime ministers of 5 eastern european countries said tariffs on ukrainian agricultural import should be considered, as well as compensation for local producers. however, global policy researchers towards the wiley says the e. u isn't concerned about those complain. this was entirely predictable

that you, when you dumped millions of tons of the ukrainian grain onto europe's market. you're going to be called an absolute horrific prices for europe's farmers. now, the european union is not really concerned about the plight of your smallest. it's actually wanted to drive out much of europe from us out of business already because it doesn't like all the animal products that it produces doesn't like all the nitrogen that counts produced. so it's actually been quite in favor of sharply diminishing the number of farms in europe. so the mode exactly weeping tears over the complaints of bulgarian hungaria and romanian sexual farmers to central mexico. now where a group of gunmen stormed a water park,

taking the lives of 7 people, warning, some viewers may find the following images disturbing. according to authorities, a group of our men stormed a resort, or dozens of vacationers were spending the week at 6 adults for subsequently killed with one child. among the victims, the attackers managed to flee the scene after destroying a shop and taking security cameras. a man hunt is currently underway. broader cooperation between russia, china, and african countries will lead to increase self sufficiency and contribute to less dependence on the u. s. dollar political advisor, robert hockey, discuss that and more in the latest episode of option returns, he's going underground. you can watch a full interview here on our tea tomorrow, but here's a preview. there is a good deal more talk now about the dollarization than there used to be. i think largely going to the fact that

a number of the brick nations and other nations as well are trying to kind of get out from under the us dollar as the sort of principle trans national currency. so if you had a training block form, say, between china, russia, maybe some other bricks, members, maybe all the other bricks members and maybe a few other nations. it's highly likely that you would actually have the makings of a kind of all tarkey within that particular training block. as we know, russia has vast natural resources as well as a great deal of technical know how we also know, of course, that africa is very resource rich and trying to in particular, but also russia have been expanding their trade relations and their economic relations with africa and you know, between africa, russia and china, it would seem to me that you got the same sort of diversity of resource availability and maybe even a greater degree of diversity and resource availability and productive capacity. then you have say, in north america or in europe as a whole. so if

a block of some sort of form among those countries, they will be simply no need for them to rely on the dollar or to be dollar dependence. and thus they would be, you know, no real danger, opposed to them by dollar related sanctions. ah, that's a rock for the hour. and we saw stories. thanks for joining us for the latest breaking news and updates head over to r t dot com and be sure to follow us on all social media platforms. and we'll see you back at the top of the hour, the i ah

ah . so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms. race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk with homeownership. has always been a part of the american dream and it's the biggest investment that many people planned for in their lifetimes. however, there is one demographic that isn't sold on this dream. millennials are now
