7:02 pm
damage. i'm standing right next to passenger bus were according to authorities, at least 7 passengers of this bus have been killed as the result of multiple launch rockets system fire by ukrainian nationalist. we're not going to go any closer to this bus because i went there earlier and i counted at least 7 charred bodies of civilians. now this is the sensor of the city of the net sca very business street on a friday afternoon. and right next to us is a local, a hospital, a local, a trauma sensor, where those people who were injured arrive by ambulances, and they're being treated like all, and all ukranian nationalist was fired against the city of dennis against civilian areas. several times this friday. and as a result right now, we can confirm that 7 people have been killed and scores have been wounded once
7:03 pm
again. we are right in the center of the city were there are absolutely no military positions. and usually the center of the city doesn't come under fire, unlike the outskirts of the city of the nest that are constantly under bombardment by ukrainian or military. as you can see right now, i'm investigators are working on the scene of the the, the bus driver of the cervical he survived, but most of his passengers, 7 people have been killed as the result of this ukrainian attack. also, besides the local trauma center besides this bus, another rocket landed and a local stadium right in middle of the field. and generally there are several areas here in the center of the nest that came on their shelling by ukrainian military. iranian official has revealed the key information as being handed to the f. b. i to
7:04 pm
help catch people on social media who could be suspected and being under russian influence. saying the key at coordinates is quote, hunting efforts with washington was we have a trace of evidence of disinformation campaigns via facebook or other resources that if from the u. s, we passed this information to the f b i. along with writing directly to facebook, we asked the f b i for support to help us with meta to help us with others. and sometimes we get good results. with that, we say ok, this was the person who was probably russia's influence or marsey. i officer john kerry aka believes is a dangerous situation. now that some government serves earning their power over social media. i think it's a big deal because it, it essentially confirms the information that we had from matt tb and others that the same thing was happening at twitter. it's not just that you have elements of
7:05 pm
federal law enforcement and the intelligence community working alongside or along with these companies. you have a federal law enforcement and intelligence making demands of the social media companies and the companies are doing as they're told. so i think this is, this is very dangerous. it, it really offers up direct constitutional questions as to freedom of speech and, and freedom from interference. they're trying to root out anybody who might be influential in changing the outlook of the mainstream. the government has told us what the official view is. the official view is that if you're american, you support ukraine and you support the efforts that the white house is taking to arm and to equip ukraine if you're an american and you disagree with that. and many of us do, many of us don't want to spend billions of dollars in taxpayers money to, to arm ukraine. then the idea is to silence you. and they can do that overtly which is a little bit dangerous,
7:06 pm
or they can do it covertly by trying to effect the algorithm on the social media platform that you're using. so that nobody can see, or your opinion is the ukranian and messy. and serbia has issued a list of rules about what supposedly can and cannot be said locally about the war . the ukrainian diplomatic mission sent the rules to several serbian news outlets. the list says that the dispute cannot be called the frank conflict, but rather quote, russia's war of aggression and a quote on her vote invasion. the rules told journalists to use occupation and never the term liberation. the ukrainian embassy has confirmed that the document is authentic, serbian erik and journalist and boys. your knowledge says that the documents shows key. i was focus is on p r instead of what's happening on the battleground. this particular set of, you know, edited aerial guidance coming from
7:07 pm
a government is so pernicious. i want to western outlets of all ready sort of abided by the guidelines even beforehand. and even though every outlet technically has their own style bible, so to speak, having a government, especially one of the belligerent government, dictate these terms is just not unheard of, but an unpleasant has unpleasant historical connotations showing what i would argue . that, you know, trying to impose the ukraine being wrong to serbia, which, whose language doesn't have articles to begin with. and these do i lines are clearly drafted with english speakers in mind. it shows an incredible amount of tone deafness that we've seen on display over the past year and a half, but also again shows this focus laser focused on p r and narrative management. that seems to have more important than what's actually happening on the battlefield
7:08 pm
. we're actually the defense minister claims the us military has been seeking to bolster its presence in central asia under the guise of fighting terrorism. he made the comment steering a meeting of the shanghai cooperation organization in india or southern america in the united states and its allies under the pretext of helping in the fight against terrorism, or trying to restore their military presence in central asia. we regard request to the countries of the region to deploy military infrastructure as a direct threat to the stability in the shanghai cooperation organizations space. for our part, if we are increasing the combat readiness of russian military bases in kurdistan, and to educate stand, there's history. it's been indeed a busy morning for many of us in new delhi, with the indian as your presidency ushering in some new approaches to asian or your asian security home for this conference was said by the bilateral meeting
7:09 pm
between the defense ministers of india and china, which even of itself was a pretty remarkable event because it's the 1st meeting of such kind after border clashes in 2020 and the minister stress the frankness of their discussions. and really showed that the spirit of this particular conference and the new spirit emerging here in eurasia american dominance of western had germany, was particularly a theme of russian defense minister survey joy, who accused the united states of trying to saw deal worth of trying to. so a violence for the sake of protecting its own privilege position briskly occurred in my live cardinal dynamic, an irreversible changes are taking place in the process or the formation of a new multi polar world. the collective west as actively opposed with yours is that in an effort to maintain global dominance,
7:10 pm
the united states and its allies have seriously eroded the global security architecture and their initiative years. the process of breaking and dismantling key agreements on arms control and confidence building was large structure. the actual prize itself on being the world largest regional organization covering out roughly 60 percent of the ration landmass for russia, india and china. the central and south asia as a hugely potential region that could provide many synergies in economic development . but it is also quite sensitive to various security threats coming from non state actors like terrorist organizations, but also state actors and the western particular russia in china, mainly concerned that the united states, off trades rather disorderly withdrawal from afghanistan may now seek to create instability in central asia unsafe as a means or undermining its adversaries in beijing and moscow. this is something
7:11 pm
that russian defense minister, in particular, paid attention to because russia believes that what the united states is trying to do, and central asia is pretty much exactly the same. what it already did in your praying, militarized country, trying to make it increasingly antagonistic towards russia. russia's defense minister also made a point. the regional powers have a lot to gain from that corporation in military to your industry, particularly singled out a couple of trajectories that can take, for example, the exchange of military information joined exercises, both as a way of increasing mutual trust and as a way of increasing combat readiness, he also said that russia could share it's an expertise on how to produce all parade to defend against the use of drones. this is a particular theme emerging out of the ukrainian conflict. the or
7:12 pm
a priority. the versus defense minister mentioned is conflict resolution. now that one in particular is crossing for russia, reaches engaged, involved in confrontation in your brain. and it's also something had both india and china a looking at with great interest. as you perhaps know, china has been pretty successful in bringing together arch rivals like saudi arabia in iran, india, as a former member of known align movement and representative of the global south would also oh, for some new perspectives on how to conduct international relations and how to conduct diplomacy in a way that actually fosters piece rather than on to mines in russia, as defense minister spoke directly with his chinese counterpart in their 2nd meaning in just 2 weeks. a seal member states have them strengthen their ties. despite the regional points of content, yet with more on that,
7:13 pm
here's our cheese. donald corridor high stakes meeting of the shanghai cooperation organization sitting old rivals down at the same table. china's defense ministers making his 1st visit to new delhi since a deadly 2020 sino indian border skirmish and after 18 rounds of talks aimed at using tensions. indian defense minister raj not sink categorically conveyed the development of relations between india and china is premised on the prevalence of peace and tranquility at the borders. he reiterated that violation of existing agreements has eroded the entire basis of bilateral relations and disengagement at the border. will logically be followed with these collation, the 2020 skirmish took place in the disputed border region of le dock in the western himalayas that killed at least 20 indian and 4 chinese soldiers with both sides, putting the blame on the other. it's just one and a series of scraps that dates back decades. but with the chinese defense ministers visit and pakistan's foreign minister joining the meeting. it looks like diplomacy
7:14 pm
is on the agenda. that despite decades old sour relations between new delhi and islam of odd and wide spread opposition and india to the participation of pakistan's top diplomat in the summit. but india has not back down on its invitation. and that's a move. beijing is more than happy with no ga, the china and pakistan are old well strategic, cooperative partners and close friends. the weiss, chairman of china's central military commission, said that no matter how the international situation changes, china always gives pakistan priority in its neighbourhood diplomacy. the shanghai cooperation organization consists of 8 member states, 42 percent of the world's population, and 25 percent of its g. d, p. formed by china, russia, and for central asian countries back in 2001. the organization was and is still intended to counter western influence in the region with the ukraine conflict in
7:15 pm
full swing and multi polarity growing throughout the world. groups like this one are more relevant than ever. the russian foreign minister has hit add a comment by the u. s. and master to moscow and interview she gave to local media. usm bassinger lynn tracy's interpretation of events in ukraine in 20132014 is striking in its selectivity. and outright falsehood, perhaps the ambassador was simply unaware, and her assistance did not inform her. but there are clearly missing pieces in this puzzle. the truth and the correct sequence of events along the claims made by the u . s. diplomat was at the ukranian government at 1st supported the e u association agreement, back in 2013. before later abandoning it, lyn tracy also accused russia of annex in crimea. despite locals, they're almost unanimously supporting the peninsulas entry into russia. the
7:16 pm
ambassador also claim the u. s. and doesn't have any disagreements with the people of russia, of which the russian foreign ministry stress. she had obviously forgotten that u. s. weapons are currently being used against russian service men and don bass civilians. international affairs and security analysts mark loda believes that ambassador tracy statements are the usual u. s. narrative between washington and moscow. it's boiler plate u. s. narrative between the tensions between the u. s. and russia and the situations that have been occurring in the ukraine since the overthrow, the openly u. s. backed overthrow of the last legitimate, democratically elected government there in 2014. the only thing that to get regime forces are actually doing is pushing the buttons, doing the fighting and,
7:17 pm
and the dying. everything else is done by the u. s. i think it's an extremely incorrect us is not just helping kill russians. it is de facto killing russians in ukraine and not, not just russian military of course, but civilians, civilians are of the don boss of the hair song, zappa, rosa, and of areas in crimea. and both gord that have been targeted by key regime forces as well or iran has ordered top u. s. officials and entities to pay more than $300000000.00 in compensation to victims of a series of attacks several years ago by the terrorist group. i says, the court ruling said the u. s. had provided support for the group and was thus liable for the bloodshed. the reasons for attributing these crimes to the yes have also been stated by the investigating branch among others as follows. statements by high ranking officials,
7:18 pm
including the former us president about the central role of the government and officials of that country in organizing and direct interest groups including isis reliable news and information published in the american media books and speeches by american officials about the role of the cia in create interest groups including isis. the court rulings specifically targeted former us president george w bush and brock obama. as was the ca and defense contractor lockheed martin. that years which acts occurred and june 2017 and central tay wrong in the national parliament building and the mazda liam of the countries. former supreme leader, 17 people including m. p. 's were killed about 50. other people were wounded. isis immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks political analyst, inter ron university. professor siad mohammed mirandi, discuss the significance of the court's ruling with my colleague earlier. there is
7:19 pm
a long history here because the united states has taken iran to court inside the united states on many occasions. they've even taken iran to court over 911 if anyone can believe that iran has been regularly punished by the u. s. the u. s. government and us courts, but and the iranian, since they have had assets are frozen in the united states and in europe it's, that's always been a problem. iran doesn't hold us assets. so in immediate future, there really isn't much that can be done. but the world is changing rapidly in the americans are withdrawing from the region and who knows what sort of opportunities will be around in the coming months and years. but i think at least for the moment it is a political response to the united states. it's sort of the global south speaking back to power. and the iranians are saying that remind or reminding the world that
7:20 pm
the united states created isis from famously admitted during his presidential campaign. and he knew that because michael flynn was his military and intelligence advisor. and we've had other officials admitted and in the media and books come out . so this is basically a reminder that the iranians have been suffering at the hands of the united states . and this is just one chapter that we want a little bit about iran, honest relations with russia, china in the south, after the bricks. how do you see in the wrong moving in, in this direction? time is not on the side of the americans because as the world changes, iran relationships with countries like china and russia in india are evolving. and now that iran is a member of the shanghai cooperation organization that has also benefited iran's
7:21 pm
relationship with these countries and russia ever since the war in ukraine in the war in europe. the russians have been very keen on establishing the north south transport corridor with iran. so you rhymes you economic relations, political relations, of course, or significance that have say, big significantly improved as well. but you want to economic relations with these asian powers. and with the global south are evolving and that is making american sanctions less effective. and i think the united states and europeans have to keep in mind that in the world they are a small minority. latin american countries are converging whether the americans like it or not. asian countries are converging. we see the same sort of trend in africa. then we have these broader groupings like rick cit, link all of these different continents to one another. the chairman of the b,
7:22 pm
b. c. richard sharp has resigned and been allegations of nepotism and murky financial ties to britain's former prime minister, boris johnson. bon, i did breech the governance code for public appointments. he states very clearly that a breach does not necessarily invalidate an appointment. indeed, i've always maintained the breach. was inadvertent and not material which the facts he lays out substantiate. nevertheless, i have decided that it is right to prioritize the interest of the b, b. c. i feel that this matter may well be a distraction from the corporations good work where i to remain imposed until the end of my time. richard sharp announced his resignation shortly after a report was published into the incident. it concluded he failed to disclose potential conflicts of interest while he was applying for the chairmanship that included a secret 6 figure alone provided to then prime minister boris johnson. however,
7:23 pm
the finding stopped short of saying whether the loan was direct factor and his appointment to the physician. i british government official accused mister sharp of nepotism, saying he got the top job in the state broadcaster basically because of quote pals appointing house. mister sharp is said to have arranged a loan of up to 800000 pounds reward johnson just weeks before the prime minister recommended him for the bbc chairman ship. the b, b. c has been making plenty of headlines lately. new delhi recently issued scathing criticism of the british broadcaster is said a documentary about indian prime minister moody lacked objectivity to such an extent that it essentially amounted to a hit piece. we discussed this matter with the head of an indian thing tank. it curves the credibility of b, b, c, as a news clip. it's also exposes, you know, b, b, c, to charges that the chairperson,
7:24 pm
if he's deep in the pockets with the prime minister, would lapse shape the coverage by b. b. c. news which is favorable to the conservative party, the chance for some is supposed to be a bow, any party affiliations, and maintain a neutrality. there have been questions and more and more also actually within the u. k. on the funding on the b, b. c. and of course, there are several voices within the u. k. also criticize the bbc right? as well as it is growing international if rock criticism, but they have been instances where b, b. c has been criticized forrest coverage, for example, in india simply, you know, a few months ago there was a document in the us prime minister to which the indian government and the last segment of the public opinion in india protested and said that they had not kind of done a balance due documentary that so what this will do is that in the future b, b, c reporting will be open to war questions and if you lose the credibility or it will
7:25 pm
get the credibility will get it ordered. it seems an innocent question from an inquisitive child has got people speculating in the us over who is a really running the show in the white house. one thing i thought when i got to the present, i get to give orders when i take orders and i redid, you're right. earlier this week, joe biden announced his re election, been seeking a 2nd term in office. but pulling numbers don't suggest overwhelming support for that idea. a gallop survey found that only 37 percent of us adults approve of the president's performance. that's the lowest, it's been since the start of his presidency. meanwhile, a new york times article this week also suggested that power in the us doesn't necessarily reside with the persons in the oval office or your, your worker. strange, it may sound the american government can function without a healthy president. the u. s. march towards victory in world war 2,
7:26 pm
while franklin roosevelt was ailing in 19441945. for decades later, the government managed its relationship with a teetering soviet union, while ronald reagan's mental capacity slipped. in each case, white house aides, cabinet secretaries and military leaders performed well despite the lack of a fully engaged leader, legal and media analyst lionel leaves. the question remains open as to who is really behind biden's back. the interesting aspect about this is that if somebody is running the show who are these and i think if you were to go into the actual back room power structure, i think people would be surprised at how much is done either by committee or by pointed representatives and then the president can sign off on it. but here is the most important thing. if for some reason he is removed, prior to the termination of his term,
7:27 pm
the vice president commonwealth harris is the president of the united states. and in many people's mind, that's more frightening room even you know, what do you mean? he said when he gaff, he's me. so that's his insurance. nobody, it's, i mean, comma le howard, right over the years. and now i'm going to let you in on something. you'll be surprised if one is the use many people believe. and i'm starting to think that this is all leaving up to her being present it with people said that should we just have to be president. why base? she 58 years old. she knows where she is. he sometimes speaks rather circuitous lee, rather elliptic lee in a rather desultory kind of a can views way herself. but she's not income, but then she's not stupid or what have you. so that when many people say this
7:28 pm
is what's leading up to more than 6000000 people now suffer from chronic shortage of food in somalia. and that's leaving to rapidly escalating humanitarian crisis in the east african state doctors. it's a daily struggle to save lives and the country now suffering its most severe drought and for decades. oh, when the support is coming on, this is a buffer complete solution already. they have got a on behalf my mom to be shown because ordered to have some on they. i wasn't life
7:29 pm
like we need is if you are doing a lot better off, adler suffer not made. so in a dilemma, thankfully since we got here, his situation is improving and slowly getting better. he was put on address. ben is also receiving medication, little diet. i the my child, godsig. i brought him to this hospital that was received well and his sailing much better know. ah, that's all for now. be sure to check out our
