8:02 pm
a defensive war. he's all senior will correspondence more garcia, reporting from the embattled la guns for public. while things on the frontline are as tense as can be, as we speak hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of competed soldiers, troops have gathered across the front line, almost a 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 jets helicopter station on both sides. ukraine that no secret that despite the morning it's air force has received. a has received much more support from the west and we're talking here about old soviet helicopters, mig 29 jets for poland and other countries certainly thinks he already pause for the storm that is about to descend with ukraine's counter offensive. it will be an
8:03 pm
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 that you had in counterfeits of his already begun. yes. ship, i believe that the ukrainian armies offensive has already, in fact, begun me. we're seeing the most intense activity from enemy aircraft on the perimeter and inside our front, even though at the same time while we are in control of our front insights. unfortunately, the situation on the perimeter doesn't look great even will. i won't comment on how secure our flanks are out of politeness enough. the enemy has also become more active beyond the historical borders of ukraine in the russian federation, where we can see the situation in various areas, trains, drones, and surround them. i believe that all this has already started and things will end to the active phase in the near future. in a matter of days, perhaps, whether you could do you can me, a government has demonstrated that it is p r desperate. it has said, you know,
8:04 pm
he has struck previously at russian cities across the board and said, look, we can strike into russia. never mind that, that a shock at civilian neighbourhood slowing stones at electrical substations leaving military targets untouched, causing a year inconvenienced at to 1000. but also killing and 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 journalist and rush itself. what in the car bombing, one in a cafe bombing, just recently in st. petersburg, we were there in kept san. 1 americans applied hi mas miss how struck the hotel we were staying and all to get it. an activist that a former ukrainian parliamentary, who was also staying at the hotel. no lou soldiers around us. but again,
8:05 pm
after every incident that they, they eat flies around the world that's headlines around the world and you pay attention to it. 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, presidents zelinski 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 is about to begin. and he hopes the gained by it. why am i sure that we will get jets? because sooner we'll 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. the said the artillery pieces to you can, will you the late. so you, that resistance crumble, gal was crushed by other members of,
8:06 pm
of nasal than they sent tags than they said jets. now they're planning on sending f, 16 o 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 investigative journalist alex rubinstein. he published an article on ukraine's drones trunks against russia just the day before. the attack on the kremlin tote is the key of his, of his thoughts to terrorist tactics. because his failing to win the conflict on the battlefield. well, even besides the article that i published, i tweeted it yesterday. ah, noting the increase in not just a tax by drawn strapped with sometimes western made see for explosives, but also on the car bombing of daria do. geena the remote destination ah, in st. petersburg, at a public event. these are the kinds of tactics that ukraine is resorting to because
8:07 pm
they're not winning in a conventional sense of, of conventional warfare. i'm so they're resorting to terrorism, of course, in washington. this is called nearly hybrid warfare, but it shows, ah, the desperation of the ukrainian government. um, and i think that as the alleged spring offensive is um what will will flounder. we're going to see in it even more of these kinds of attempted assassinations and i, blay, and terrorist acts. washington has washed his hands of the drone to talk on the kremlin of us officials claim they don't know what really happened. this is, america is stepping up as military support for ukraine, despite the risk of a big conflict with russia. here's the latest statement on that from the white house, those person you've been very clear. i mean, we just were about to announce another another critical security assistance to,
8:08 pm
to ukraine. i think that shows our commitment, and we have been very clear that we will support ukraine as they defend their country against russia's invasion. they will, and that will continue, that will not stop. and again, we're, we're announcing a security as this is, i think that shows how, how much we are committed to them fighting for their freedom, fighting, recreating, and people fighting for their democracy. and so we've been very clear in not just security assistance and humanitarian aid and economic aid, and that will continue from here. well, we've heard in addition to what we just heard there from the white house press secretary in the white house spokesperson. we've also heard from antony blanket the u. s. secretary of state and, well, he did not indicate and said the united states had no prior knowledge of this attack and he certainly did not indicate the united states was endorsing the action . he gave a kind of bland statement that didn't seem to release men, women,
8:09 pm
and children, enabling the government. we've been very clear that nor enable the ukrainians to strike inside of russia. i can say definitively that the notion of the u. s. providing intelligence or information to the ukrainians to target locations inside russia is nonsense. we are not at war with russia, nor do we seek war with russia. now the world is very aware of what just took place and the recent attack. so this can be pointed to as yet another example of the words of us leaders, not matching their actions, given attorney and low professor andre thomas house and says here is trying to stir up a media storm with such attacks. and that the lack of success on the front lines touch incident, such a text or call them terrorist attacks will call them as symmetric warfare attacks
8:10 pm
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 its citizens. we will see more and more what is non modern days as symmetric warfare, all in the old days, gorilla or just terrorism. and this is naturally so because the regular forces in the ukraine are clearly losing out our creek considerably weakened. and will soon be on the retreat. 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 to nature to intervene, direct with, with men on the ground, with divisions that would lead us into a big european war. military expert,
8:11 pm
i guess i alexander step and also the drones used in the attack, a very similar to those manufactured by ukraine's defense industry. this floor. it is possible that these drones were assembled in nearby territory, including the mosque region. but on the other hand, the video shows that it was a fairly large device with the wing span of about 2.5 to 3 meters. it is possible that they were the very common cause, the attack drones that the ukrainian defense industry, the main manufacture of the military industrial complex to be train announced at the end of last year. it is quite possible that these drones could cross most of the territory of the russian federation due to the fact that today it is difficult for almost all air defense systems to detect drones. they fly at very low altitude and can move along preset coordinates without emitting any radiation. they are made as inconspicuous as possible to avoid interception and radar. therefore,
8:12 pm
there may be different possibilities. the drones could have been delivered in some way to a nearby territory. this is the easiest option for maximum effective use as well as assembly. but the question is how, where the explosives were placed in the drones deliverable. there could be a similar scheme to the one used in crimea attack where explosives were delivered through other states. and it is quite possible that the components for these drones were brought onto the territory of the russian federation in other ways. in other developments, russian security services say they have apprehended suspected members of a pro ukrainian terrorists. so the group was reported the trying to carry out the tax on crimea. officials equally store enough takes us through the case, and his report contains interviews with suspects who are currently under investigation by russia, 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
8:13 pm
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 hood of 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 of freeing 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, victors recruiter was know nobody here hes 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 beaudin of ukraine's defense
8:14 pm
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 resolution before the un. my task regarding the agent network was to find people willing to cooperate with ukrainian intelligence and ukrainian special services. finding the right men for the job wasn't hard. after all, there's not many things money can't buy, like a weird lesser with 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 cooperate with him and with the special services of ukraine. he sat, he was corporate, and with a good friend of carol bardon, of the head of ukrainian intelligence in total victor,
8:15 pm
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 safety of ukraine explicitly ordered attacks on civilian officials from you, sir. my task was to spy pulled the mayor of yalta yanine at have link o. the head of the crimean parliament vladimir constantino, and the governor of crimea soj auction of. they wanted to blow him up. my i 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 to plant
8:16 pm
a car bomb. so, so on the shell given before sending parcels, i was assigned the task of spying upon the 3 crimea, and officials to monitor have a move where they live. i needed to gather all possible data. they wanted to eliminate them. this scheme revealed by the detained 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 ideas weren't made in crimea. so how did they get there?
8:17 pm
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 heaters 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 milly topple or from bloody cove caused by regular shipping companies. the cargo which included the dresses and the explosives hidden in electric stove tops, got to russia's northern capital. but at least out of that we got acquainted 3 or 4
8:18 pm
years ago that since then we didn't hear anything from her. on january 20th, she wrote to me for the 1st time via 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 address is arrived,
8:19 pm
electric self tops were also in a box. my colleague called the contact number, they had asked the store to talk to the woman she was in contact with. she asked what was the matter why we ordered crashes, but received electric stove tops. they said it was the delivery companies mistake that they've 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 hopes came even without the dresses and every time marina had a shipment address at the ready, this one belongs to live in anchor. alexander, who turned out to be part of victors terrorists, so explosives were smuggled into russia by a mule, a man from milly topple,
8:20 pm
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 ok. 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, fi, a transport company. it was an electric stove, top in this package. and the next package they were already to stove top. i opened it and saw additional wires i were told they were detonators and activates and a 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 wires, was the amount of explosive material victors so received. they could carry out
8:21 pm
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 cooperation. i wrote it cited 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 high ranking official. then he burned this receipt in front of me and threw what was left of this and college went into the sea. it all happened on my yacht. in this conversation, konstantin mentioned that they quote, are keeping an eye on the mayor of yalta unit of lancaster. i asked why, but he left it off. i didn't really like it for what purpose?
8:22 pm
i realized that it was for some criminal purpose. there were no specific expressions or threats from konstantin, but he had the 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 when i'm again done of reporting for our see at the globe marked world press freedom day. the u i state department is launched a program to assist select journalists exclusively outside the u. s. it went straight to for the nation's agency for international development. samantha palace address the media on the topic. we recognize the importance as a governance means of having free media doing their work all around the world, and we try to support it as the united states. a program called reporters shielding
8:23 pm
to provide legal assistance fund coverage of court expenses for journalists outside the us. he may be targeted by they governments eligible media outlets must pay an annual fee to be supported and meet certain criteria. however, its launch has sparked a polarizing reaction among americans excellent new opportunity for julian assange and wikileaks to apply for us funding to help their media organization survive. la fair from the u. s. government journalism must be defended from legal threats, meant to silence critical voices instead of championing free speech. the u. s. actively persecutes journalists and whistleblowers. oh, pardon brave truth tellers like julian assange and investigate the corruption in crimes they expose? it's only ok to imprison journalists when the u. s. government, does it free a sausage and we must also protect the journalists who provide be platform for the vessel gloves to tell us what's really going on.
8:24 pm
so that we don't think, you know, we don't misunderstand that britain and america went to afghanistan to liberate the women. originated america, went to iraq, to protect the people from said no britain in america were involved in, in legal wars. just as you may be, you know, you come from a country where you're concerned about the legal wars. we must all be opposed to illegal wars. we're all really civilians are killed in vast numbers. and the people who are profiting companies are the weapons manufacturers and the very wealthy people who have investments listing. and this is not good for ordinary people and most people are struggling to survive. and our government and our leaders should be focusing on making sure that people have enough to eat,
8:25 pm
that they have be some health care that they have a good quality of life. this should be especially in the developed countries, we shouldn't be using our energy to can poor people in other words. and that's really important. so it's important to speak about these things and you know, the junior is in prison for telling the truth about god carnival where 780 old mostly men and boys as young as 14, were held for years without trial and so much at the same time julianna's songs, one of the most, well, no, no news publishers in the world is facing of the 175 years. and in the american prison, i saw just the founder of the wiki website, which really classified information regarding us war crimes in iraq. and that's going to stone as us regulators on the europe, ian count paul's wage war against the russian media ortiz. but nick and other russian media out this have been banned in the and europe since the start of the
8:26 pm
ukraine conflict last year. american officials have underlines the importance of fighting so called russia propaganda urging the shut down of such channels around the world. here's what the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman had to say about the u. s. approach to media freedom was they didn't get nuts music which is just some kind of more cree, honestly the united nations, the general assembly. this out of may freedom of the press unesco, draw attention to the problem, and all these them and their refusal to issue these, this to russian journalists who assigned to the united nations. all these m as many as of harassments of one of the world's leading investigative journalists june and the sanchez, we're all this against bullying of any media which doesn't fit into the global tram that unites a number of media representatives of the collective west. she don't fits in a black tower, crest out persecuted. you let us on, is this something that the u. s. government cannot leap with and that is exposing,
8:27 pm
and that is remove their mask. so so i don't think there is enough detail. you're not seeing the world that the united states will accept in exchange for julian size, because they're they, they can be crusade against julian. you've got to be young because beyond anything that has to do, he, he faces 175 years under this act. in the united states for a while for, for publishing information that needed to we publish for a fact that needed to be said for showing the world what the u, as us troops were doing it, i can understand and these, these, these completely on baled a what the us war machine was doing and how it was being heat and how he was completed with, with the, with the media, with western media. how western media hasn't been completed with, with a hiring these from, from, from the public because they need to maintain a, quote unquote rules based order. for the latest news updates,
