30, you're open when you get a mind for sure. what's the white catch that the score? can you? i need to con, so you put the fuel saves the top headlines right now, and i'll ask you, international hundreds of ukrainian soldiers are killed and thousands of times destroyed as kias counter offensive as repelled by russian forces. it's all according to the country's defense ministry. the, i'm pretty bad and seems there was a couple of public opinion journalist or among the dozens enjoyed by id of soldiers and cashier that erupt it following and is really re, you don't, the palestinian sydney falls from on a bit of a fall, a bit of a cold shoulder perhaps, so you cranes,

president zelinski is not invited to attend the g 20 this year as confirmed by host india, the kind of somebody to talk about the same thing as we come to you lie from months ago . we're just about to 8 pm. local time, we are cutting through the narrative to get you your news on since it's more than the 300 ukrainian soldiers have been killed in the much hyped counter offensive. and as i thought, always you area, this is according to rushers administer of defense. i started to try to set that up for $1500.00 men in thousands of times that attempted in vain to attack the russian position. the commander of russia's forces in the area said ukrainian troops with delta, a decisive defeat. the frontier with the enemy attempted to go on the offensive, but they were exposed by the forces of military intelligence in time and were bombed by our aircraft at their starting positions. as soon as they reached the mine fields for enemy tanks were blown up by the mines, further or taylor,

we suppress the enemies right from their firing positions and electronic warfare units or press the enemies communication system. having suffered losses, the enemy refused to advance further. alberto and we have just returned from his apparel here range and it is believed to be the main direction for the counter offensive of the ukrainian forces. the night has been very heated, as we filmed, and as we've talked to the soldiers who are well acting, who are fighting on that section of the front at around midnight. you crate in forces they've attempted to breach of russia's defense is just outside the small town of audio, which is not the 1st attempt that they're taking there on that particular section of the front. but it is certainly, well other attempts they pale in comparison when it comes to the money to that the ukranian army has thrown into the me grind is over that and well, so far they have failed to show anything for me to give up to 3 and it'd be tank

units were moving in for directions. the enemy did not even reach the combat collision line in 2 places. we have been preparing for this counter offensive for a long time, and we were afraid that the enemy would prepare even more so far. we see unreasonable actions, because if they continue to lose up to 3 units in one attack, then we will reduce them to adams within one month because the equipment and people will run out. we have strength in the defensive front line enough. you would need to be crazy to make a frontal attack there. we do know that since midnight, till 5, about 5 o'clock in the morning, the russian jets russian bomb is and artillery. they have been burning the advancing ukrainian columns, burning its tanks, burning its almost vehicles on the well killing past. and now so foss, the fighters, who over that they are describing me the scale of loss is of the ukrainian army as quote unquote co law. so uh, at the same time,

the russian soldiers that they are standing strong, they silver have not given any important positions to the front as well as very stable over there. at the same time, they're telling me that at least one ukrainian battalion that's hundreds of people, at least up to 800 of men. they openly sabotaged orders. that's according to the information that they got from the radio chat to have it they intercepted, they sabotaged orders to advance to stop the offensive and well, they simply declined to advance. again, that's hundreds of men and dozens of uh, items of ahmed vehicles. and the tang said kinda speak so lots about the and says a lot to about the morale of ukrainian forces that i'll throw in again into the mead grind as well on that's part of the front. again, it is not right to say that everything has come to an end over the, the intensity of the phasing it has subsided significantly,

but the firefights are still ongoing. and the tillery on the ation jets are still very busy. but to civilians including a pregnant women, were killed by ukrainian shouting. this in our rushes had a southern region of the attack on a flood evacuation area for rest of the civilians. when to 2 more people, we can get a few more details. now, with a correspondence, steve sweeney has some, as one young girl has been killed and at least 9 people wounded in an attack on a marketplace in the center of the city of gold cut. now, this is the attack took place on thursday at lunch time, so we can only believe that this was designed for maximum impact. some $23.00 book is written down on the city, atlanta in the marketplace, but also destroyed and damaging residential buildings. a cultural products and a local, a technical school. i'm also having these reports and because on a region where the acting governor that has said that 2 people have been killed,

one of them, a pregnant woman in an attack on the evacuation point. and he described this as a deliberate attack on the innocent civilians that were also having use from the co, the power station that is being at the premiums have target to the conversation that who is a full res 5. and of course, this is leading many people to also when will this nightmare come to an end time to learn more here on the program and all the international r courtney like to independent dr. joe and stuff sonya abandon and a who's joining us here in ology international. sonya a great pleasure to see you this evening. thanks very much for coming here on the program. you in the always talking, it is never positive things you hear me talk about, but that is a state of affairs and that, well today is sonya. let's talk about this. the ukraine. you're saying it's a, it's a sauce. it is much hype to counter offensive, while at the very same time, intensifying a tax on a civilian area is what, what, what do you think the plan is? what, what, why do you take it away from the military?

see it and put it into the civilian areas as well as things green must be just her 2 great crowds waiting all the bits of fields. because when we hear the immense, also solid metal field and this was not now that before already the, there was so many injured. so many soldiers died actually. so you can see the now are doing terrorism is what they did. of course on the coast i've done. it is many times before. like you've got to sicilians ivy hands and of course, doing yes. city. this is continuously, i think, since many months already, or maybe since one year already they are attacking civilians in the city or sicilian. impressed dr. apartment buildings so then beams. daniel has enough maybe resources on the battlefield, and they called when and what i heard as well is that the width of the flow from

you to us is not reaching ukraine, not a little bit off. of course. well, the only thing is reaching ukraine. so they had loss of power, as most of a munition perhaps is what we're asking. so we can see it. it's a surprise to exit. whatever reason when it, when it comes to is essentially what's going down to the last 24 hours or so. there's a much hype the counter offensive. i was reading somewhere when military historian was saying, if the reports are true, about the number of all my deployed and the amount of all the destroyed. so military analysts say this has been the biggest time to battle in nearly half a century. is this right now, what we're seeing at the moment, the official counter offensive from key a few things as well as the room is before. but of course, you're never going to say we haven't come to our senses and do something they look like cic. dorian knew then she did 2 sets on june july. the 11th doesn't nato

summit. well, the most likely, they'd be comfortable offensive. we'll start them and, you know, you see all the things on social media that has these videos, things, you know, we're not going to tell when they come to offensive starts. but i think it started, and this is what we hear from the russian ministry or the sense that is indeed started. and i think the control of them is to just an act. it's an x of the television, but also maybe an act or, you know, yeah they, they cannot what i said. they kind of went on the battlefield. so this things. yeah . okay. i, i most likely. i think there is lots. yeah. the many things that i don't think there are many things uh, legal for things like ranking ready, well, i mean you do it, let's just talk about what a lot of me put in called eco side. and this is the lack of sky of hydro, electric dime, the destruction there, the sabotage that i put in quoting at eco side. and then saying that the key of regime is trying to find ways to escalate this. this conflict. i mean,

it's worth mentioning, i mean, that done was built by the soviets and 1956 and essentially it's in russian territory. now, it's under the control of russia. i don't think russia tell me something you, i mean, does russia have any interest in blowing up that down? i mean, honestly or no, of course not. i mean, i was there myself last you i have distressing military operation. i think it is when it will effect on the okay. i saw it then. but why should they have because the water is going right through crimea, so it means no, i think 80 percent of the crime. yeah. loses the water from the, from the down. as i also the surrounding fields are now on the water. so the groups are now, you know? yeah it's, it keeps it's gone. and all the villages and what you said it's russian territory. so i mean, no, of course not it's, it's definitely ukrainians who benefit from it because they bullets as a in western media that they want to uh, retain currently. yeah. so maybe in this sense this is yeah, this way they think,

oh, you know, when you blow up and down, then we can we take from you maybe this house think i'm you know, you source on you. i mean, you saw the way the west, the main stream media was behaving like this and that essentially the same kind of a node stream method. let's just blame rush of applying up its own infrastructure. it is just madness. i do, i do wonder of people around the world a slowly but surely perhaps starting to weigh a casa. so when you find that and a doctor, john, let's joining us a live on ology international. always a pleasure, i hope to see you soon. thank you. right, well, american, john, let's do well. have grill the us state department spokesman of his comments on the ruptures unprovoked war in ukraine. i'll tell you more about this. so the, the online footage are produced by grades on shows that the challenge to the west latest narratives or challenging this notion that the russians and vision of ukraine was completely unprovoked. us and german governments repeatedly promised sylvia presently, gallagher, hook gorbachev, that nato would not move one inch eastward. there is no reason uh to

make attempts to erase the borders of, of a neighboring country. and that's what we're say. if you think of it, the hand were on the other foot for the glover on the other hand, you know, in mexico was trying to enter, you know, an alliance that historically has a precedence for establishing russian military bases on it. you know, mexico was gonna get a russian military base installed on it. you know, our reaction to that would probably be like no, no way, no way in hell is that gonna fly? um, so it's a, i know it's a hypothetical, but it's a pretty simple one that i think most people can granted. certainly the hypothetical and i feel are fairly on confident ground to say that any potential us action in this hypothetical scenario certainly wouldn't involve the infringement on another countries sovereignty in territorial integrity and attempts to erase its foreigners off. the maps against mexico is a hypothetical, but it's historical fact what happened during the cuban missile?

i'm not disputing historical fact about i think what we're talking about. i'll just say that it's like the. ready size of the article and blow the question. ok? well, what's the mediator and officials often call the ukraine conflicts an unprovoked attack? my russia, canada, they disregard the fact that i'm also race concerns and propose signing security guarantees on numerous occasions in response to what was harsh nato's mac brokers and comments as to expand eastwood which has always been one of most goes key concerns. well, that's the more causing a lot of not the liam cost grove, the grades on reporter who is the power to your needed getting yourself in trouble badly. and when you're pushing back on the state department's post process, and what do you, what were you trying to achieve by confronting the guy that's going well, basically, kind of the question i asked, which is, was this war provoked any sense that i wasn't even been trying to say, was it justified to invade, where there are other means available to boot and maybe, you know, jeffrey sachs in the article i mentioned during that question says, you know, maybe 2,

he could have rallied kind of the n t nato. and to us sentiment that's growing around the world to kind of pressure the us that way. that could have been one option. but no, i was mainly focused on was it provoked by the us that any way? and i thought, i think interesting, and his response is the 1st half. he says, no, absolutely not. you know, we did not do anything to provoke. but then in the 2nd half, when we bring up the mexico scenario and the cuban missile crisis, he kind of says, well, you know, if the us was going to respond to mexico, it wouldn't be an invasion. and then he, he says the same thing later on with to, but you know what, we didn't invade, but we did respond. put inherent to that response is, is the fact that the us actually did respond to the cuban missile crisis. it wasn't an invasion, but there was a response and that's kind of the definition of provocative. you know, one action by another party. you folks are reaction out of you. so i think and listen to his response. was this interesting acknowledgement that actually yes, there was some provocation. yeah. why, why do you think the western media and i'm the i don't trying to drug around here,

but quite serious. why distinguish the media always sticks to essentially one side of the story. we know the forest johnson, whatever a year ago. now, scott held the peaceful that we're about to happen between kids and most of you know, the bbc right now. the bbc is kind of changed his narrative or on ukraine. so every time a present or a corresponding folks about ukraine, they talked about russia's full scale, military invasion is the 1st 3 or 4 words. they say, every time they talk about this compet in ukraine, even the pope said a year and a half ago, this was a pro vote conflict. and he always seeing right now, as far as we can tell, which is a further escalation of the, of the confidence. is it going to achieve peace? did you think leah and by further pumping more weapons into this unfortunate staging ground? no, absolutely not. i don't think that what you piece and you make a good point on kind of the model list of start and kind of the repeating of these of these slogans. which is why i challenge the whole unprovoked thing because that's another one of those slogans that's often repeated. and yeah,

you make an interesting point about the alignment with western media with what western governments, you know, we do have some free press here, like luckily the one i worked for allows me to. but when you look at new york times washington post, they're almost always in lock step with the us government. and actually one point of optimism that i would point to in regards to that is lately. you've actually seen those outlets kind of criticize ukraine a bit. i don't know if you saw the new york times article about the nazi symbolism that is on the ukrainian fighters, the outfits and things that are 1st i've asked them to cover up. and then the washington post recently had a piece on us intelligence learning before the north stream blew up, that ukrainian forces were actually planning to blow it up. now whether that's true or not, it is indicative that the us mainstream media is becoming more amiable to the idea of criticizing you print, which i don't think would be allowed if it wasn't partially sanctioned by the us government. so i think that's kind of optimistic in that the us government behind

the scenes i think is probably the one thing to end this war as indigo shooting table. cuz they've just realized how out of control it's got, you know, i would say i'm just going to ask you that later. i'm not, i'm so sorry. i apologize for jumping in, but i was just going to ask you, you know, what, what is the end game here? because we keep hearing reports about these nato countries that really don't have any more ammo left by scraping the bottom of the barrel than not producing as much as they need to. there's also the ministry on list to say the russian economy is now on a, it's like a conflict based economy, so it's actually doing quite well and they're producing lots of munition. i mean, how do you see this playing out? give me a time frame. if you would land and um, well i, you know, i'm not a geopolitical analyst, but i hope what happens is, you know, both sides come to the negotiating table. i think another positive side is the willingness that has, that has also been kind of seeing with leach to the media as well as, you know, some kind of pro us public figures suggesting that, well ukraine to the don't boss,

you know, we, we should, we, we should be willing to give those up. and it's frustrating to hear that because that was kind of the, that was a deal back in february of 2022. we could have not had the war had we just held referendums in those regions, but it's still, it's still reassuring to hear now that at least the us seems to be willing to put those. i'm going to go to the table, give those up. ukraine doesn't need them. and the people who lived there don't even really want to be part of your brain according to polls i've seen. so, um, yeah, that's how i hope it ends is. we start, you know, diplomats get together and they start pointing to things like that, like, hey, let's have a referendum on this region on that region. let's talk about, you know, shortening nato expansion, things like that. i hope it ends and they've got a shooting table. um, i think both sides have a role to play in initiating those engagements regardless of how frustrating it might be to deal with uh, with my governance as a, as i'm familiar with. but yeah, it has to be done. would you like me to it just to add on to what you're saying

that and according to other options, security council secretary patricia, he said leaders of ukraine. we're ready to conclude a peace treaty, but refused due to us pressure. patricia says, but us wants to, we couldn't russia, but their ultimate goal is china and liam. that's a conversation we're gonna have to have another time, liam, called scrub grazer and report at pushing back at the us state department. i really enjoyed that. you're going to be capital, hope to see you soon. thanks. thanks for having me. good to see if and maybe 20 pots here. i must go good to have your company. a couple of a palestinian john list are among 35 people who are being injured. after is ready for his mounts at a rate on the palestinian city over the model that is in the west bank. it did provide violent flash. the it has been a very tough morning in ramallah this thursday. media report say that

a large group of israeli military came to down on off the capital of the palestinian administration to carry out an army opperation of demolishing the house . belonging to someone who israel accused and charged off terrorism. they prizes on the ground spark immediately our trade among the local population, including youngsters. they started throwing stones to these rarely forces with the army. and the dismay responding with fire in life and robert bullets as well as to your gas. the idea of confirmed as part of the information provided by the palestinian journalist center because saying that one published in fulton journalist was huge by robert bullets to he's had a while he was at the riots between local population and these really are me. he's currently is in a intensive care. i have to say this is a very hot topic, according to rough estimates, in the last 22 years. these really forces killed at least 22 journalist and many

others have been wounded and a big concern of human rights groups. both local and international. is that no, it has ever been punished for that. and this is why we now hear from local journalists that this case should be taken to cold, including international criminal quote, have comment of these and demolitions of these past seen houses. i mean we're hearing is it having a lot demolish house is a, is a, come on, is rarely practice when it comes to the perpetrator is accused of terrorist and israel has been doing it all across the occupied west bank, claiming it is by this punishment and a tool of deterrence to potential attackers this recent times, the idea of side of the statement, a residence of some of the one who was behind the terry tack in to risk to them last november was demolished when tween bloss killed. 2 people hadn't changer, is 14 others, at least with all the com on this policy is highly criticized human rights groups.

local and international call is a form of collective punishment, claiming it is not fair or legal that the families of the attackers are being punished and a suffering. there were several cases here when college students, please appealed to high court of justice in jerusalem, trying to prevent the homes from being demolished beds and most of the cases days of pills were rejected. well that calhoun about who is the public opinion analyst on his radio fans so. so when vitamins does come to the contested areas of the, it's really all i mean sometimes has a difficult time, well distinguishing between us talk and some of it's not the only they are destroying the list and then houses that in fact they destroyed some facility is schools or other facilities that with the faith and the donated by the you. oh is it you themselves? and they don't care, they do whatever they like and the and when you go to receive the cool was this of

these demolitions or the most is you find that at the end it's fully taken care of them. what they've, that has nothing to do with what they call that the fit on the policy in order to detailed any further standing and zip code on participating can do those things as proficient then as a journalist, and sometimes i live in the field, they don't deal with you as a journalist, they did with you as up on this thing and, and doesn't list any. and it means that, that you are a target and did you commit that to get for those that are really is. so just they do at the bottom a lot. i think the standards because they don't see the brother stands as a whole journalist matrix, the children women, what they bought, they don't see the list damian's as a human beings. india has confirmed that ukraine's president lensky has not been invited to the upcoming g 20 summit. it is basically anything speculation about whether or not he would get a few more details. now with all these we're going to enjoy. firstly, there shouldn't have been any speculations about valencia coming for the g. 20

summit in september and new delhi in don't been very, very clear from the beginning. ukraine is not invited. no, a you create is not a member of the g. 20 bill can be when india took over the g 20 presidency last year. it's $10000.00 bites to guest countries including bangladesh, mom, nigeria, egypt, a new claim was not a part of it despised that. when in april this year, the 1st deputy foreign minister of lie, you creed came to new data. ukraine arch new that need to invite the lens key for the g 20 summit. the india did what it had to do. in our opinion, the g 20 summit is attended by the g 20 members states and the countries and organizations that we invited, we announced the list of invitees immediately after we took over the g 20 chairmanship that we've been deal for the set up as j. sean co setting the records for a look at there have been problems for india was reading the run off to the final g

20 summit. 3 months ago when the g 20 for minnesota needed to place in new delhi, they couldn't come up with a joint statement. it was surgery loud. rove was such that he's was less emotional . our approach to was ukraine that prevented from the foreign ministers me from being the success also in the it was disappointed. uh, you know, it is not in does you political emissions in that sense? but as far as law school i'm concerned, remember from, from february last year to now, india is importing a new order or from law school for the size west, and specials from 81 percent in india. zone. in both boss get to nearly 36 percent . now in those important around 167 barrels of crude, the de, from russia. and it's not just the energy sector. it's not just stored,

but other sectors as well. defense. for example, india continues to be as big as the buyer to a weapon or from law school. and the relationship between new deleon law school is on detroit. india's cause with russia have remain steady. we didn't let the green issue affect our ties with russia. the leaderships of both india and russia understand the importance of steady india rational relations for stability and your ratio. so in september, when heads of states will come to new delhi for the final g 20 summit. the hosted by mr movie india has wanted to keep the issues very, very, feel multilateralism. india is also wanted to keep the issues that are playing in the global south india. have them fax all this wide viewed. it's your long presidency as not only in this moment in the sun, but also global solids moment in the sun. and they wanted to talk about the very

real issues that are blake blinking, the developing nations, the food energy, fuel prices, for example. so we never really wanted to keep the focus of all of that, not just you created. so that position is really, really pushing and for india and attempt to undermine peaceful coexistence and foster conflict in the country. that's how you up here has responded to report by human rights watch alleging that the country is carrying out ethnic cleansing on june 1st, human rights watch issued yet another sensational report, containing a litany of allegations of graves, human rights violations. it released these allegations without conducting a thorough incredible investigation in all areas affected by the conflict. the allegations are not substantiated by evidence. the reporter to it says audits of, of our, of ethnic cleansing in the west and take re region claiming local shipping forcibly

expelled it. all comes in the wake of a piece. they all sign between ethiopia and st. gray, all 4 of these designs and to use a router welfare in the countries north. now the world which are up to november 2020 a picket forces from the take res, against the ethiopians. the federal army and allies conflict also involving neighboring, at a trail of the fighting during that period has to have tens of thousands of civilians that well independent john list and political call my to i'm the one i'm c say, believes the human rights watch report is another example of continued external interference on the continent at law. there's nothing really to receive now the, the, the issue is the interest is fuel economy can just do so. they don't want strong. yeah, very good. and as i say strongly, strongly the big countries and the composite the to the other countries and becomes

stronger in that agent. so they want smarter to that it goes to the country. the paper is gonna be easy divided. so i think the decision has come from 2 weeks to me, maybe a week or so divide into that into a smaller countries business, but at the same business that they may want to be done this month. so i'm not say, isn't it needs to be a must be the easiest for congress. the 2 of you went to the deal for the region, not just the essential a russian. so you have cars on has been hosting an international form of educational leaders from all around the world,

including delegations from more than 30 countries. and we heard from bahati las academy was senior official from equitorial guinea. now she says that russia is helping the educational sphere has been well invaluable to a country's national development where it says, and that's what we have high expectations from before. and because of the african level, equitorial unique is the only spanish speaking country in africa. we expect that we will be able to spread the russian language in africa and in other countries, similar to how spanish and to the african union through equitorial gimme. we believe that with russian support, we will be able to teach our young people. the russian educational system is firmly rooted in my country because many of the leaders, equitorial gimme started and russia. some of these people have influenced the education system for the culture and russia support has also helped us to train crate professionals, doctors, lawyers, and civil engineers.
