with some protest whose claim is to have suffered mind in minor injuries. now unconfirmed reports suggest that there are as many as 34 people that were wounded. now protesters could be heard changing. nicole is a traitor in several video clips likely reference to pushing down statements earlier this summer that he would recognize the as here by johnny sovereignty over like war. and a car boss is, but who were to guarantee the human rights of it's saying, have it is an old global citizens. now let's have a listen to what locals have to say about that. you, of course, as best as talk i need since 2018 nicole, but you know, and has prudence only solar and so we want him to resign because he's present springs only war and warning. highest on the armenian prime minister, made it clear that the people of our itself can not rely on our media. and this will make the situation even worse for them are media must do something. otherwise, arch soft will cease to exist. so it all on that level, the armenian government should stand with outside shoulder to shoulder into

everything possible to get out of this crisis situation. otherwise they should resign. that once again, we're standing a right in this sense are all there be no capital off your mind. you can see behind me people are walking around leisurely as if nothing was going on and tuesday evening. everything is pretty calm. however, just the block away from here, there are a couple of dozen people in the same spot as on tuesday night, just waiting around. nothings going on there. they are just waiting around that someone confirmed reports on social media are suggesting that protests will support . yes. again on wednesdays. well for now, we'll just have to wait and see and watch this space. the latest round of tensions began on tuesday, when, as our by joining forces opened fire all along the contact line with bunker, accusing our media of publications up to 32 casualties have been reported. in addition, over 2000 people, more than half of whom our children have been evacuated from the region or early on

wednesday, explosions were heard in the capital of the world, part of bar, causing significant damage to local infrastructure. the russian peacekeeping mission reports numerous violations of cease fire agreements by us or by johnny forces along side the entire line of contact with the break away region. as or by john says it will end that so called a counter terrorist operation, until the forces of the self proclaimed republic lay down their weapons and disbanded the unlawful regime. the russian foreign ministry says the armenian prime minister had previously recognize no cornel car back as part of as or by john in 2022. despite agreements signed in 2020 the fate of the gore know care. a back settlement was drastically influenced by the recognition of new gore know care a back as part of the territory of as or by john by year of on in october 2022 in may. 2023. at the summits under the auspices of the european union,

this change the fundamental conditions under which the statement of the leaders of russia, as or by john and armenia was signed on november 9th, 2020. as well as the situation of the russian peacekeeping contingent. since its deployment in the region, the peacekeeping contingent has faithfully fulfilled the tasks of maintaining the ceasefire agreement and ensuring context between the as or by johnny and armenian sides. the peacekeeping contingent is also providing assistance to the civilian population at this time, including medical assistance and is assisting with evacuations. now the main thing is to immediately return to the implementation of the set of try lateral agreements approved at the highest levels in 2020 to 2022. we're all steps are prescribed for a peaceful solution to the care of back problem to stop the armed confrontation and do everything possible to ensure the rights and security of the population of the gore know, care a back. so the russian defense ministry has also said russian peacekeepers in the

garden with her back have evacuated over 2000 civilians, including children from the most dangerous areas. all those evacuated were provided with medical treatment and given supplies and temporary shelters. and the car back or our talk has for decades been disputed between our media and as are by john after the collapse of the soviet union. the area mainly inhabited by ethnic armenians proclaimed this independence. and the move was brand of the legal buy bought to the biggest escalation happened in 2020, when the as or by johnny army gained control over a large part of the territories, bucking last, during the war in the early 19 ninety's. earlier this year, i mean the as prime minister admitted he could see car buck as officially, part of as or by john adding his country has always respected as or by john's at territorial integrity. this like what's on ritual. you see these 86000 square meters, including the going and kind of back, but it should be measured. our position is that the question of rights and security

of our me and seem to go in and cut about must be discussed between but who asked about a care list on patients of jacob, mr. pushing on. tell us straight those to come into median government recognized arts on his part of a 0 by john postpone the i sort of the go there. meaning government position is old . i mean, government recognizes as anybody, jones territorial integrity when talking about she, yes, i sent him. what albany is? i have said i have clarified. i find it difficult to give them more specific answer to political experts. steven diets says the armenian prime ministers, a previous comments about the car loc region contradict to the interests of the armenian people in this position may be correct from the starting point of the international law. but it is definitely an act of betrayal from the standpoint of armenian national interest. and one of the most of our mediums feel so uh, i think that, uh, you know, because statement is scandalous for uh,

the, the armenians in the, in the, you know, yeah. in the 1st place and then uh it is uh, i think uh on, uh, realistic without a violent scenario of one kind or the under. so uh, what flashing on this uh, in my opinion, of course, uh, going from from, from the size i not from that region, is that, uh heated everything to encourage a barcode to actually take military action was that i think that's really the position of a medium people is, is extremely tragic because they have a man who is clearly a traitor on their national interest in charge. and, uh, and there's almost nothing they can do about it. so that is why we see these protests and yet you can follow the latest updates on the unfolding situation in the gartner, car, buck, and many other stories on our websites,

r t dot com. the 4 people have been killed into 3 injured in a gas explosion. and a high rise building in a must go suburb the a wall of the house to collapse the well search operations were underway with 3 emergency services personnel trapped in the rubble explosion. destroyed the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floor of the building. all right, let's cross live it now to ortiz charlotte davinsky who is at the scene for us at charlotte. well, more can you tell us about this incident as well? this incident happens at about 820 local time. here we most go in the north of the city in an area. cool. felicia, now we understand that you mentioned that the fluid, 4th, and 5th of stories of annoying story buildings were blasted out when not gas explosion happens. now it is unclear how many people still quote under the russell,

a children's park and you get a sense that the window is being blasted out. you can see just fully flung out the net coatings that would have been hanging on those windows now. strewn across the street and children's toys on the ground, as well as just shots and shots of glass. there is an emergency evacuation center that's been open just around the corner for here for the residents who being told they cannot enter the building at the moment because of course it is very damaged. they need to assess that damage before anybody can go back in. and of course ensure that they have been able to take out and help as many people who may still be trapped under that level. but for the moment, residents in this area have been different. evacuation areas, they will be food provided to them, and of course the shelter will be provided to those who are unable to return home this evening. but for the moment we understand that reports for people killed in

this gas explosion in the north of moscow. several people truck under the russell, but we have seen some of those individuals already rescued, including some of the firefighters who were under that 2nd collapse. later on following that initial explosion. are to charlotte davinsky. charlotte, thank you. all right, a reminder now that breaking news, we're following here on our t r media and as are by john have agreed to a cease fire in the corner car box region starting from 1 pm on wednesday. that truce was reached with the mediation of the command of the russian peacekeeping contingent in the region. we will, of course, be following the developments and keep you updated as we get new information. russian defense minister survey showing who has said of washington pressure won't get in the way of rapidly expanding military cooperation between moscow into ron. he made the remarks during a visit to iran, where russia's high profile delegation was welcome to by the countries at the top
