he also said there's no magic one moment when russia collapses. in what universe is, wallace resides the ukrainian drugs target the kremlin, and what most go call that attendant to the phoenician of the russian president was not inside his residence during the throne strike, which was repelled by electronic defenses. susan schedule remained unchanged according to his post on his care, denies responsibility for the attack. the criminal said russia retains the wind to retaliate at any time with a very warm welcome. it's 9 pm here in moscow. and this is our p international with the very latest wealth news update is good to have you company. our top story,

they found the kremlin has said ukraine lowest rose drawing could be moscow. residents are present imputed in the early hours of wednesday. listen, official say to drones with downs by electronic ad defense is inside the kremlin walls, with no casualties or damage on the grounds. this video apparently shows one of the drones exploding about the building inside the kremlin. what near the flag moscow was labeled it a terrorist act. and an attempt to the fascination of the russian president vladimir putin was not inside his west. and during the attack, a criminal added that russia reserves the right to take retaliatory measures when, when it sees fit. however, ukrainian officials have claimed they know nothing about the attack and deny any responsibility to midland. he has said that ukraine doesn't target putin, no russia, but his waging a defensive war. earlier we spoke to our war, corresponded moore, i got the of who's in the guns republic now. while things on the frontline are as

tents as can be, as we speak hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of comb with its soldiers troops. i've gathered across the front line was the 1000 kilometers. we're talking about an immense amount of far power, thousands again and thousands of tags of artillery pieces of various various aerial assets of some jets helicopters, station the on both sides ukraine that no secret that despite the morning it's air force is received. i has received much more support from the west and we're talking here about the old soviet helicopters, mig 29 jets for poland and other countries. so certainly thinks he already pause for the storm that is about to descend with ukraine's counter offensive. it will be an incredibly bloody affair. we've, you know, we've spoken and we've heard from various officials, for example, the head of p. m t wagner. the private military company has said that he believes

the ukrainian counterfeits of his already begun. yes. ship. i believe that the ukrainian armies offensive has already in fact, the gun. we're seeing the most intense activity from enemy aircraft on the perimeter and inside out front, at the same time, while we are in control of our front insight. unfortunately, the situation on the perimeter doesn't look great. i won't comment on how secure or flanks are out of politeness. the enemy has also become more active beyond the historical borders of ukraine in the russian federation. we can see the situation in various areas, trains, drones, and sir on. i believe that all this has already started. things will end to the active phase in the near future in a matter of days, perhaps. whether you could, the euclidean government has demonstrated that it is p r desperate. it has say, you know, e, it has struck previously at marson cities across the board and said, look, we can strike into russia. never mind that, that they struck at civilian hey bud slowing stones at electrical sub stations

leaving military targets untouched, causing a year, inconvenienced at to 1000, but also killing ah, killing civilians, dozens and dozens of civilians injuring hundreds across the border in russia and various villages. they're the countryside. we've also seen the, the terror attacks against russian journalists and activists. for example, the murder of 2 prominent jennison brush itself, one in the car bombing, one in a cafe bomb. just recently in st. petersburg, we were there in cassandra, an american supplied hi mas miss. how short the hotel we were staying and all to get it in, activates that a form ukrainian parliamentary, who was also staying at the hotel. no, no soldiers around us. but again, after every incident that they e, it flies around the world. it's headlines around the world and you credit has to, it's sponsors. look we're, we're taking action. we've done this, we've done,

we've done that. so certainly this will be used domestically, especially by ukraine. but again, there's a huge risk of, of escalation, but again, presidency landscape ha, now on a torn in finland, planning to travel, perhaps the gemini, or somewhere else in europe next, has come out and said that the counter offensive. he's about to begin. and he hopes the gained by it. why am i sure that we will get jets? because sooner will take offense affections after that, i'm sure there will give us planes. i would like it to be the other way around, but it is what it is. as i said, the, the history of this conflict since day one has been escalation after escalation. we heard that 1st, you know, various, was the nation's native states. reluctant to sell tillery pieces to ukraine will leave the late so that resistance crumbled was crushed by other members. of, of native that they sent tags. then they said jet, now they're planning on sending f, 16 fighter bombers from the,

from the united states. it is either incredibly dangerous times over the past year . it has only gotten much more dangerous and not the chairman attorney and the nurses look professor of law andre thomas house and joining us for toria, south africa. many thanks for your time this evening. it's great to see. i'd like to ask you what your initial reaction to the, to, to talk on the kremlin was well, i'm a say, i'm not surprised. it is in the nature of a conflict that until it reaches a what is called a ripening point. where, where the pain of continuing is greater than the pain of finding a way out until we reach such a ripening point, there will be escalation. and the other truism in, in the law of conflicts in that, that the party that is about to lose it will cross any other means of continuing the fight. the, the street fighter was about to lose will pick up

a stone try. and if the current was a song, but i want to say is we will see more and more what is not modern days as symmetric warfare, or in the old days gorilla or just terrorism. and this is naturally so because the regular forces in the ukraine are clearly losing out, are clearly considerably weakened and will soon be on the retreat. a rush, i say that they consider this for a 2nd attempt on the president's life. would indicate implications. do you think this could have in terms of the why the conflict? well, this isn't just famously known to said it doesn't really matter who and how a conflict started. the only thing that matters is our conflict ends. should this conflict, and we have for instance, an occupation of your credit and rush,

i will face the difficulties or any occupation force which will be a resistance, a kansas time terrorist resistance force. and some of that is already being felt, obviously with the attacks on journalists and the moment tax on trains and many other unpleasant events in the laws on warfare. off haley, all these things in international law shouldn't be happening. there should be a respect for the principle of proportionality. there should be a respect for the t. geneva conventions should be a respect for what is called humanitarian law, but it's not happening. so now we, we will have to wait until this ripening point is reached until for at least one of the, of the 2 part is the continuation of the conflict is, is far more painful than considerations how to ended even under sacrifices.

i would estimate that this will, this point will be each sometime in july. ok. ukraine as we know with tens of billions of dollars worth of western weapons on the ledge condition that it will not use any of those arms to attack russian territory. do you think it all for today's incidence? it will be a wake up call for the us and its allies. it's, it's, i think, the retreat, the shameful retreat of the us armed forces from i've got to stop and the many other defeats that america suffer from vietnam actually, with any regime that america supported. and they showed that it is not just the money, get us to spend about $900000000.00 a year on the military on the fence. russia only spends about 110th of that, 80000000000. and it is clear that america cannot claim to have a guarantee to win. and many of these weapons already been destroyed in the last

week and they will continue to be destroyed. and that will continue to be enormous integration issues like any motor cars different. so any weapon, there's no time for people to, to be trained to know how to, how to master all the different forms of engineering. so i'm not too concerned with the continual re supplies. i'm more concerned that as the ukranian regular forces will begin to retreat. and as this becomes obvious, there will be a very strong temptation tonight or to intervene direct with, with men on the ground with divisions. and that would lead us into a big european war. this attack on the climate comes on for a series of incidents in several rational regions with ukrainian sabotaged to blame for trains being to rail power lines going down here. if behind those because it

has been, i is behind them so far. what do you think you cranes, and game as it is, it is like any religious the or ideologically motivated struggle. we know it from world war 2 at the end of world war 2. and in a few days, we will celebrate the liberation of berlin. at the end, even children as young as 12 years were behind machine guns and were sent into battle to talk. so if, if you have an irresponsible government driven by a mentality, the mentality that convinces them that they are right, everybody else is wrong. then they, unfortunately, the voices of reason don't have much of a chance. one can only hope that there are enough voices of reason in the ukraine

to begin to stand up and to begin to say the destruction of our country has gone far enough and it must end. now. you mentioned the victory day in russia. i just stayed with a huge event here in most guys and with the timing of the time coming 2 days before the celebrations are to be held out. what would the make of that timing? do you think it's on purpose? well, yes. so as such incident, such attacks, you call them terrorist attacks, we'll call them as symmetric warfare attacks that are designed to, to make headlines, to, to show that so that the enemy is not able to fully protect its territory and possibly it citizens. so there will be concerns there will be very serious concerns about may, because evidently, any, any propaganda agents and ukraine will be dreaming right now of managing to orchestrate a major bomb attack explosions, attack sure,

exactly. on the lines of my under thomas house and german attorney and a meritus professor of law. many, thanks for your time. i appreciate your thoughts and your insight into any matter. thank you so much. thank you. and again, thank you listener that we spoke with a journalist at the tv network. he says the attempted attack on the criminal is clearly an act of provocation. there are multiple stories that are doing rounds on social media and in the diplomatic circles that whether this is an escalation, either by ukraine, because the ukraine has denied any kind of a drone attack on kremlin. or is there some kind of a western conspiracy into it because we have had this a playbook play in the past as well? the question here is that this is not a simple attack that we're talking about. we're talking about 2 drawn, 16 minutes apart targeting of general kremlin, and a there was so called attack perhaps was planned to assassinate wootton,

and that is why the holy does are busy discussing. and the media is closely monitoring what the response would be. the timing is certainly very significant and important, both for russia and ukraine, so as to see what i see if at all it is a pro occasion. it is more from the west on other countries because that is driving the narrative really, or in this or russia, ukraine war. there have been progressions that have been coming in both from u. s. u. k. and europe against russia up so interesting to be like, wait and watch all this up on falls. i cannot believe that these drones would travel about 602700 kilometers inside the russian territory without being detected . this seemed like a lost kill or drawn attack that has happened from a neighboring a building off about, but perhaps 5 to 10 kilometers range. but of course, investigations will reveal more about the capability and the capacity of the drones

. but other 3rd, it's a message. this is not the 1st time the key of regime has turned tim terrorist time takes according to rational thighs. his pro ukrainian sabotage groups have conducted a flu, a prohibited attack. since the conflict began to take consecutive days, a series of explosions have rocked, rushes, brianne screeching near the border between crank, wanting to trains through the rail. no civilian casualties have been reported. the ukrainian armed forces make regular attempts to attack russian border areas, including crime is ukrainian drones also attacked attack service. so pull on monday night with russian that defend successfully repelling the attacks. according to the city governor, earlier on monday they had of crimea also reported that forces shot down the drove in its western region, and the u. a. v strike on the crimea peninsula was prevented on april 29th. early this year, a prominent russian military blogger flatland, petoskey was killed in the bombing to st. petersburg cafe, the suspect,

26 year old daddy, a trip of a carry to start us containing the bomb, and presented it to the blogger during an event. the last kill 2 tall sky and then get 40 others rational dorothy claim the trip of the acted on the orders of ukrainian intelligence, as well as associates of jailed criminal critic. alexa and the valid the claim which no valid the team has denied. in august 2022, another russian journalist study a duke and was killed in a car bombing, russian intelligence services came. the ukrainian government was behind her as the talk as well. the call was owned by famous russian philosopher and daddy, as father alex on the dig into reportedly he was the initial target here also denied responsibility for that attack. in march 2023, a ukrainian sabotaged group attacked several villages in the russian brianne, squeak and firing a civilian car, killing the driver and enduring a 10 year old child. latimer,

who thing called the incident. a terrorist attack noting that the attack is where the children were inside the vehicle. according to political analysts, jackie shall do the attempt to talk on the criminal will only serve to strengthen most goods result in accomplishing its mission. a sir in some ways. so that way, corn to say that the mission mazda accomplish as soon as possible, transformed any further, sort of aggression crane and especially was one never knows what kind of impacts, what went to the next step would come way to direct it. or what hop, moody calls hum, they charges those kinds of things. so from was point of view. this would only need next. or those who are wanting on the ground must intensify the efforts

to basic marsh to leave true as soon as possible. reason besieging a makes sense to, you know, take a believe that it's a source of the job is ukraine. this is a huge psychological and more set back because he actually suggests that you trade so is commuted to wall as opposed. ready to a x, sorry, workable a work of with, so sushi versus the carry to services off happy have apprehended suspected members of the pro ukrainian terrorists. so the group was reported he planning to carry out attacks on crimea, and officials, ortiz egleston of texas through the investigation this ukrainian patriot. victor didn't want his sons to become cannon fodder on the front. so he offered himself

instead, except he saw himself as more of a gorilla fighter. and where he lived was so convenient. russian crimea, which cave is obsessing about, getting back. so victor reached out to ukraine's intelligence and swore his allegiance quizlet order. the song ago, roman mash corvettes recruited me in june 2022. i came to poland by agreement with him. that's where the recruitment took place. my pseudonym is socrates. my sons are fleeing from ukrainian mobilization. this factor became a catalyst for the fact that i went to cooperate with the intelligence service of ukraine. it turns out that it was only me who wanted to defend ukraine. oh indeed, victor's recruiter was no. nobody here. hays sharing the table with none other than vladimir zalinski. i am on my spirits is also a member of the most intimate circle of this man. carol boom, done of ukraine's defense intelligence head,

who moscow calls the mastermind behind the blowing up of the crimean bridge. and a number of terrorist attacks in russia. well, his instructions were clear was elizabeth, who in my task regarding the agent network was to find people willing to cooperate with ukrainian intelligence and ukrainian special services. excuse me, finding the right men for the job wasn't hard. i've rule, there's not many things. money can't buy, like a weird lesser order in december 2022. my main job was coming to an end. and since i needed money, i needed a job. i turned to victor, put volley for work. at the end of december, victor asked me to drive up to his house. i arrived, we went into the garage, then he offered me to corporate with him and with the special of his of ukraine. he sat, he was corporate and with a good friend of carol baton, of the head of ukrainian intelligence guardian in total victor,

the ringleader and rolled 5 men. his network of agents was complete and it was time to put all these people to use. well, the state of ukraine explicitly ordered attacks on civilian officials from you, sir. my task was despite on the mayor of yalta jenina path length o. the head of the crimean parliament vladimir constantine of and the governor of crimea, soj auction of. they wanted to blow him up. my understood when i was asked if i could press the button, they want to destroy pavel anchors. well, the headless was made up of 3 targets, the governor of crimea, the head of the local parliament. and the mayor of y'all to the town where victor lives, russian operatives discovered, ready to use i. e d's, in every suspects apartment, they searched apparently meant for the mayor of yalta. ukraine's agents planned to rent a flat in her apartment building to get access to the parking lot and plant

a car bomb person the chalet given before sending parcels. i was assigned the task of spying upon the 3 crimean officials, to monitor how they move, where they live. i needed to gather all possible data. they wanted to eliminate them. this scheme revealed by the detain suspects, was strikingly familiar to russia's counter terrorism offices. in fact, it was the one that once worked out for key of in the assassination of gary, a dog in the last august journalist and daughter of philosopher alexander duncan. the explosive material used for the i. e. d. 's wasn't random. it was military grade, stuff made in the u. k. the same material and identical parts were discovered on the peninsula. this february, when a railway line was blown up, judging by everything that happened on the railway line in crimea, in february, i'm 100 percent. sure it was a terrorist attack. i understand that it was the parcel that blew up the railway. then clearly the i e. d. 's weren't made in crimea. so how did they get there?

well, some of the explosives and detonate as were hidden in electric stove tops and that inevitably caught the attention of investigators. they managed to track the heat as all the way back and well the trail of breadcrumbs took them to bulgaria. and now bear with me in february to unsuspecting business women in st. petersburg. russia were contacted by marina ukrainian, and for printer in capital sophia, she was manufacturing wedding dresses, and the russians owned a wedding dress shop. this is how she was sending her produce from sophia to georgia. there it crossed the border into russia and well then either from merely topple or from block of cards by regular shipping companies. the cargo which included the dresses and the explosives hidden in electric stove tops, got to russia's northern capital. what are these out of that we got acquainted?

3 or 4 years ago that since then we didn't hear anything from her. on january 20th, she wrote to me for the 1st time by a messenger. she offered to buy dresses from her business and deliver them to us through finland. i refused. sometime later, at the end of february, she wrote that it was now possible to send dresses. she wrote that they're based in bulgaria, capital, sophia, now, and so it's possible to send their dresses directly, and she offered very good discounts for us. honestly, these discounts persuaded us and we agreed. everything looked good to good. red flags were raised when with the 1st shipment of dresses, something else, something astonishingly random came into. electric stove tops, the owner of shelton st. petersburg texted the woman and bulgaria, but she had an explanation for it. when addresses arrived, electric stealth tuffs were also in the box. my colleague called the contact number

of they had asked the store to talk to the woman she was in contact with. she asked, what was the matter why we ordered trash this but receipt electric stove tops. they said it was the delivery companies mistake that they brought the wrong parcel. she claimed the self tops accidentally came to us instead of another address. the woman from the had asked the store, asked us to re deliver the stuff tops by transfer company. she gave us the address, gave the phone number and the name of the person who is supposed to receive the staff tops at the pick at point of the following orders. also included stoves. in fact, sometimes only the hobbs came even without the dresses and every time marina had a shipment address at the ready, this one belongs to let you, nancy alexander, who turned out to be part of victor's terrorist. so explosives were smuggled into russia by a mule, a man from milly topple,

who was offering taxi services to the you and russia, then ukrainian intelligence exploited normal commercial schemes and unwitting accomplices to get them in the hands of agents in crimea. jennifer choice, i was looking for a person who would not draw attention to himself. it could be a pensioner. the main thing is that it wasn't me. so i found a pensioner. his wife gave their contacts, an apostle came to their name via transport company. it was the electric stove top in this package, and the next package they were already to stove talked. i opened it and saw additional wires i we told they were designate isn't activated and the receiver when the package was delivered, they wrote to me the package has arrived. thank you. that is guys was perfect. it would take a professional maintenance guy watching the x ray to sport explosives in an electric stove. top, already packed with wise, was the amount of explosive material victor's cell received. they could carry out dozens of attacks. one of the members of the cell turned out to be

a professional diver who stockpiled tens of kilograms of explosives and guns on his youth. one could only guess the suit of may ham. this man could have caused following the orders of the king pins in key of constantine constantine. the afternoon anchor asked me to write an acknowledgement that i am ready to cooperate with the ukraine authorities. and that i have been warned about the responsibility for disclosing these corp. i wrote it sided with a signature that was in mine and handed it to konstantin. he took a picture of it and said that he would send it to some hiring can official. then he burned this receipt in front of me and threw what was left of this and can knowledge went into the see it all happened on my yacht. in this conversation, konstantin mentioned that they quote, are keeping an eye on the mayor of yalta yanine up of lancaster. i asked why, but he left it off. i didn't really like it for what purpose? i realized that it was for some criminal purpose. there were no specific

expressions or threats from konstantin, but he had a serious expression on his face. from the bombing of the crimean bridge to assassinations of journalists, kia has made it clear that terrorist attacks against russia are an integral part of the state policy. but this case shows that no matter how intricate the ploy is, russian security services are going to win. am a get done of reporting for our c small as the latest news, i think you can check our website r t dot com. we'll be back at the top with ah hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things are considered. i'm peter. i know

it's easy to pick on ben wall is that things here. so, i mean, it do, we still does have any lead a message and, but the realities are hidden behind the curtain and every once in a while through leaks. if they are real, i can't tell. they are not tell us a very different story. go ahead in belgrade, i think that the elites in the west are became victims essentially, and hostages of their own propaganda. they got high on their own supply and.
