ukrainian regime has undertaken a long promised defensive. now different parts of the front line, just concentrating many units of equipment and much manpower for the purposes. on june, 4th, the 23rd and 31st mobile, the gates of the ukranian troops attempted and offensive in 5 directions. the enemy did not succeed in any of them and suffered significant loss of the 300 soldiers and 16 tanks, 26 armoured combat vehicles and 14 vehicles. got let's cross out u r. t corresponded igor steinhoff now in the lou gone square public. hi igor. so what's the latest from the front lines and what's the state of kids offensive? well, absolutely, and basically the russian minister of defense is not the 1st official to confirm. the cube has begun the active phase of the long teased counter offensive. but he's certainly the one to provide us with the most details as to how this effort is

faring and let me tell you this is not varying well for the k of combined is at least according to the rush is top military official, basically in the course over the course of the past 3 days, k of forces have been trying to bridge brushes, defenses, but sofa. they have a fail, they have completely failed and also the russian defense minister. he is shed some light on the cost that the ukrainian side has suffered. and has really paid uh, over the course of these pause 3 days. in general. in total they have lost more than $3000.00 men killed inaction. they've lost dozens of tanks including gym and made leopards 5 uh, 5, uh uh, croft, also dozens of artillery pieces and hundreds of mud v codes. this is thirdly, a very significant cost with nothing to show for age and with nothing to show to basically feed the audience, the ukraine in an audience that have been in tests and anticipation of good news.

but also what's really peculiar about this late. his statement by the russian men is still defense. he has provided details in a very rare instance. he has provided details as to the law says that the russian side has suffered according to certain showing who they are in comparable to those that the ukrainian side had to endure. but the russian side has lost over 70 men repelling the ukrainian attacks. it has also lost hundreds of people, a jew to a wounds that they have suffered on the battlefield. no, also 15 tanks and uh, just uh over uh, 5 just short of 9 uh, artillery pieces too. so again, uh, according to the russian official information. this is the amount of, uh, the amount of damage really this is the sort of, uh, the sort of, uh,

damage that the ukranian side has managed to deal to the russian forces who have been repelling the attack. of course, the figures they are in comparable here, thousands of soldiers on one side and just dozens on the other one. but still russia has been trying to be very careful and has been preserving its men as uh, as best as best as they can. because they realize that this is the most precious assets that they have. also the circus showing who has revealed that apparently in the face of nothing to show for the offensive and the phase of no feasible results on the ground. the ukrainian side has started to move its troops from other parts of the front. have a listen. this is fear coast having been unsuccessful in its offensive actions. the enemy intends to transfer units and equipment from the 1st on direction to an offensive area in order to strengthen their potential, thereby significantly weakening their position is the direction of their son. for

incident minutes, the enemy has begun building defensive positions on the right bank of the neck, the river, which indicates its intention to switch to defending. now all of this, it really falls in line with the what were the russia, the russians are being saying about the explosion with the destruction of the damn . and novak halls ukrainian side has been shelling it relentlessly. there have been recorded instances of the ukrainian missiles fired towards the facility on tuesday, the blew up and the parts of the front have been badly, badly flooded. so now the ukrainian side really has the opportunity to well move some of the troops from here to some parts of the front to other sections like in these up are always your region into net scan here in the just outside the loop guns. because of course, the offensive potential of both armies, but mostly of the russian army,

because mostly the left bank of the river has been the, has been flooded. they have been significant. well, they have been the impact. they have been crippled. and so the ukrainian side maybe doesn't have to worry so much in the, in the next couple of days that the russian side might attempt anything to cross the river to the river to you and to try and to capitalize on the gains on other parts of the front are to corresponded eager stano for reporting from the lou gone through public. thank you. up to 3 years in prison. that's what a former minister of justice in slovakia is facing for his pro russian comments on facebook. however, he stands firmly by his principles, and i'm proud of the statement i have written, and i would repeat it any time. it is indisputable that putin and the russian federation acted in accordance with international law. it cannot be called an aggressor, stuff in her a bit and has served as will walk,

is administer of justice and supreme court. justice is also known for his support of russia stands on ukraine, which he expressed in a facebook post a day after the special military operation began. there. he praised president putin's options and called the key of government out for the genocide of ethnic russians. now, however, ben has been charged by slovak in authorities with quote, defamation of a nation and endorsement of a crime is convicted. he faces 3 years in prison. earlier we spoke to political analyst, alexander pottage, who says that slovakia and authorities are likely trying to make an example out of her events in order to silence other skeptics that does not sit, do official narrative is being criminalized or is being simply shuts down or censored and so this is just an egregious example,

the latest example. but you know, this is the say they don't have any car arguments and your, let's say 20 years ago. somebody else who doesn't agree with them would have just gone out into the media and said why they don't agree with them. but here, you know, their arguments are lead. also they want to crushing percent. so instead of countering with the commer opinion as done in normal democratic society, they just try to censor him. they try to criminal, i assume they try to intimidate him and they try to use them as an example for others who might have similar thoughts. and lots of other people have similar thoughts in europe just as a lot of them are also afraid to voice it publicly like he has sorry is really normalization is deeply important for washington. that's according to us, secretary of state anthony, blinking as he takes off his trip to saudi arabia on tuesday, playing the role of mediator in the middle east. but lincoln was also sure to

underline washington's efforts to block a ron from obtaining nuclear weapons. which to ron has continuously denied. there is no danger that is real faces that is graver then the one paused by the iranian regime, pattern of hostile behavior underscore as a clear, impaired jury from michael. this ron cannot and will not be allowed to acquire. and if we are weapons, as blinking himself said, one of the missions is to save the middle is, was basically washington and 6 to boys its own relations with its long time partner in the region. it's the 2nd top level american visit to saudi arabia in a month. and i have to say that the relations have been shaking in recent months, pursuing their room, national interest. the salad is often happened to hurt the stays intentionally or not. the

. the question is, is a washington, welcome to the saudi arabia. well, blinking arrives to the kingdom on the day when it ran an embassy reopens in re yeah. and as a, as a gentle reminder that a historic deal that we can solve, the 2 countries, the saudis, and iran, up to 7 years of hard tensions, was brokered by china not to as also had a lincoln's visit to saudi arabia, the united air batteries, u s, as strategic ally in the region announced it withdrew from the us, lead security, mary, time call ition, and now joins saudi arabia and iran. that's together with 5 other states are planning to establish and you naval college should and to ensure regional stability and security without us in the countries of the region and have to day realize that

only corporation with each other bring security to the area. there was another top plans during lincoln's visit to the the latest, but it wasn't financially excluded with no reason. it's given israel. it's watching closely. all the meetings in the yard because it's 6 normalization with saudi arabia and news, american assistance invest. we want normalization. and these, with saudi arabia, we view that as perhaps a giant leap towards the end of the air was early conflict. disagreement could have monumental consequences, historic consequences for both israel, for saudi arabia, for the region. and for the world. you asked for a paper, they promised to meet the age, but so far no breakthrough has been achieved 3 on has been holding back, insisting that palestinian statehood goals should come 1st. something that israel cannot accept and also choices that they announce that it is going to develop its own nuclear program. and that is also something that is really strongly against. so whatever reasons,

whatever goals us secretary of state is expecting to achieve in saudi arabia, it is not going to be an easy admission. and then us secretary of state anthony, blinking visit to saudi arabia or ramos. so to reopen its embassy and re add after 7 years of close doors, the move a direct result of a chinese brokered agreement between the 2 states. its saudi arabia broke off relations with a rod in 2016 after the states embassy. and for ron was attacked by protesters expelling iranian diplomats from the country. transmission will return to saudi arabia. under the leadership of a ron's former ambassador to kuwait, the embassy is reported to be in function the agreement to restore relations between saudi arabia and a ron was reached in march of this year. after unsuccessful attempts by other states you trying to finally broke the deadlock between the 2 parties around for

administer has claimed that the policy of isolating a ron has failed at work. are you sure your ons active presence in the shanghai cooperation organization? your age and economic union and recently bricks shows the global policy of isolating. iran has failed. they want the current order, which is based on us to germany, to be at the center of world detention. but as the concepts and international politics and relations have changed and recent years, the realities of the global arena have as well. let's cross live with political science professor and head of a ronnie, and studies and research center managers and mont option of welcome and mod. so ron reopens, it's embassy in saudi arabia today. how significant is that for ron and for the region as well? the hello. yes, this is very significant for both sides. officially, you run your mission to solve the out. that'd be a, was actually the mainly in the,

um uh, we had an office uh, which was uh, taking care of uh, our membership info. i see organization of summit corporation. it was at 50 and our cost of that. and just that was also actually, uh for this purpose uh to today they announced that uh, they would open the embassy office should the main, the, the amount of times and the service are very angry about this. uh, probably, uh, they designed like this to happen. this was a big failure to american public policy in the region right now. so the idea is changing its uh, a real bad policy mainly uh the sold is, uh, don't want uh, to, uh, uh, to keep this side under the umbrella of the united states. in 1972,

there was some kind of agreement that to us where to provide protection for solve the idea. and so the idea was sell, it's void in the us dollar. now. so the idea uh says that this uh, lets say agreement is finished. i'm not going to stay in the, in the instruction agreement. i'm going to uh, join other punches in the region to provide peace uh uh, through the corporation with other customers in the region. because united states is not providing any protection to solve the idea for other personal countries. and mainly, uh, what is the only thing which is important for the united states. uh, is the security office frazier on setting the up contract is uh uh their weapons. and by the way, the lessons they sent to the other countries, the other countries found out that this workers are not up on the stand. that's

which they should be delivered to them during the, the sodium and was they found out that this weapons don't work? well, one of the things that was discussed was how flabbergasted, everybody in the political world was when this happened. why do you think vision was successful? in this reproach meant because uh oh mine in iraq had also tried to have this sort of relationship, but they failed. uh uh, what this is. uh, this needs uh long as a 1st of all uh, one of the biggest problems. uh, the rug. um the uh home on we're facing was that none of them was able to provide guarantees. i this to your on both. so the idea on agreement, wife, china was able to provide such a guarantee to both sides. this is one second,

and probably the most important thing was that after the start of the russian special version in a crane. uh g out of the country is uh, looked up on what happened for europe. what happened for a crate and what the americans did in your old americans was on the, are already not only where they are, the only uh, uh, following their own interests. they don't care about the allies interest in euro. they don't care about what happens to a credit. they don't get about what happens to other countries on the well, when the out of sold that they found out that the camera not to rely on us. and they have to solve their problems with iran directly. they don't want to get into the same trouble. americans, a force 0 fans and go crazy and still gets into that because americans of

astray live. what focusing on and let me see between so the you're on the slide is what i'm hoping to have a war with 0 on using solve the i'm up countries the same thing the they are doing with the crane, but it's all the american. i think they are fighting gras shop with the premiums. so when they sold this to solve this, they sold it split up the solve our problems with your on and after 5 years of negotiation may need 3 years of 6 up negotiations who useful have announced negotiation. they came out and they said ok, we just need to have the guarantee that all the agreements will be implemented as we are ready to. so, so i would be based with it. it would be done. yes. and might of chance political science professor, head of iranian studies and research center manager. thank you very much.

chair. so yeah, this is by bed. i a the seats, like i said, they fold down here. and so i put a, a table on the bottom on top of the seats and then i put about 3 sleeping bags on top of that. and then i have this 0 rating and sleeping bag for the wintertime. and uh yeah, i'll call in there and. yeah, typically i'm toasty warm. i've got a space either here or a bed buddy. propane heater. yeah, you really don't need a whole lot. you know, it's a survivor, you just need your basics and what you have those, you know, you can be happy as long as you're happy on the inside. so yeah, we, when the government tries to fits you and just in this expense of box where you've got to pay so much money to survive,

i think they're taking your freedoms away because you don't need all this. if it's, if it's all my needs and i'm completely content, you know, just to stay here really don't need anything else of the the, well, it's kind of a sad situation. sad feeling here. this was a bribing community, a homeless people. and everybody had their uh, little area with their tense. and they were bigger tense. they were 10 man 10 somewhere even bigger than 10 man tense. and uh they had a heat in the winter. they had enough food. they had all the clothes that they

needed. they had all their basic needs met. it saves the tax, pay about a $1000000.00 a year every year. we are here. if they were to how's the county or the government was the house these people in hotels like they normally did, it would have it would have caused the county a $1000000.00 a year. so how's the people? yeah, this camp here and this was, this was a group to about a 122 people. that's at the peak. i started it pretty much from the, from the get go. i moved in realizing that i needed to be here to protect the homeless from the outside and also to manage the to make sure that things were organized. we had no place to put our garbage, you know, place for a bathroom and you know, just the basic and, and the people were happy. ellipse of the people that lived here were very happy

this is public property. it belongs to the public, you know, which should have been accessible to the views of people. but what was happening here was the media, the press were coming down area and they were showing this, you know, it's, it's of the world basically the, and, uh, what was happening is the township didn't like the publicity didn't like the light shown on lakewood. so they did with a could to close this place them will, will so close down on july 3rd, 2014 day before 4th of july independence day, they shut this camp down and, and told everybody they had to leave. and that was the last day of, uh, just beautiful camp. the

you are heading down to the champ, richard called a senior champ, most of the people. there are seniors over 55. and we'll jump off a few things to the chance me a matter of a couple of years. i've been living in sheds buckboard was constantly getting more disposed by going to home depot and lowes and tell them what a great carpenter i am. and i always get hired and they kind of a way this, people don't have money to spend. all, all contract is cutting the price. so there's no profit in it, and it's tough to get the job. i do things get worse this year. in general. definitely got worse because the economy when i was i was in florida and

somebody had given me her, her vehicle and uh, she said, i gotta get it back. i said, i'm gonna give you the back. she said, bring it here. i said it cost me a $1000.00 from gasoline to get but nice $1000.00. right hander, back the car wasn't the bad luck. i wouldn't have it but, but i never lost my face a couple of times. i question it, but the face of the lower in this guy right here. i'm just watching report on everything that donald trump did for this country and everybody hates and the status of the democrats is wrong. it's just wrong. all these aliens coming into millions coming into the country. they shouldn't be here. she gather more, ship them out now of the,

but that's not gonna happen. as long as there's a lot of democrats in the white house commander in chief, he doesn't mean always own name. sometimes. he flies around on air force, one choke people help me out in this truck right here is a major example how people you know, can be very generous and helpful. somebody met me, you know, at the dealership and they gave me this truck. it's a 2022 and it's brand new and they just gave it to me. and so this is, this is the kind of stuff i need to continue to do what i do for the homeless and the 4 of this because every, yeah, every day is, is busy, especially this time of year. it's the, you know, the holiday christmas season. and i'm, i'm running all day long. the time i wake up to the time i go to bed, which is late. i'm continually doing something you know,

busy to picking up donations, to bring out to the poor and the homeless, or i'm working in the camps dispersing up a tense or putting up a tense, bringing down heaters or whatever is needed. i how far around around 50 homeless, between uh, osha, the mom with kelly. it's. it's around 50 people. so you victoriously did on the bench outside of the library and then yeah, there was no cushion on this village at all. this was a hard bed since he was there for weeks sleeping on his bench. oh, it was horrible. so there is no show that you can go through it just now any in this county you ever go into the whole community center which was there for decades in lakewood and then they made it into a shelter at least at nighttime. so the homeless in the area would come down to the community center and sleep nice. seemed like about on maybe 6 months. they

close it down. they close down the shoulder and then they, uh, the tour down the building altogether. the yeah, so we picked up from the, one of the drop off locations. i have about 10 people that have said that it's okay to use their house as a drop off location. so there's centrally located in different areas are around here. so people from that area can go and drop things off at that house. and i go around and i, once or twice a week, i go around and i pick up at that house, then you know or give to the homeless in their camps. or i do a program twice a week in the town square in lakewood, where i give out to the homeless and the poor. they are in lakewood, somebody here with the costs.
