8:00 am
still of some common ground the french um boss of that is summoned to the russian foreign ministry to discuss the face of french mazda marys killed in ukraine, declined power as denying that presence on the ground is randy government is divided on whether to loan jeff polls scalable against neighboring level, not the idea initiates another series of the strikes for you as president promises to keep roaming. yeah, the despite that may think that western strikes, if they saw fail to the, to the who's the so much talking shift and they read the
8:01 am
hello and welcome is full, pm, hearing most scope and you're watching all see international with the world news update. it's good to have you with us this, our top story b french on fast. so there has been some into the russian foreign ministry image news that russia's suspicion attack on the scenary headquarters in ukraine. killed 60 star, and fights is french nationals among them. powers. this code set to oppose a russian manipulation. i think that this military aid is provided in accordance with the little friends helps you bring with supplies of military material and military training in full compliance with international law. france has no mercenaries, neither in your grain nor elsewhere, unlike certain others. well for more details on the story honestly corresponded marina, closer at the joints, be in the studio, marina, thank you for coming in today. lovely to see you. so what can you tell us about this entire situation? yeah, well, as we've seen, friends is the 9 is by friends,
8:02 am
can deny it all at once. we can actually see that russia has the proof in the form of parties. fortunately or unfortunately, depending on which side you are on, of course. now france has always been denying that it has mercenaries in ukraine or anywhere else. rochelle ford's part has always said that the western countries do have a mercenaries on the ground in ukraine. something that has been documented before, but again now after the precision strike, the defense ministry issued the statements and it said that they hits a temporary deployment points of foreign fighters. and that strike killed over 60 mercenaries, and the majority of them were friends and nationals. and this is not something, it's not something you. yes, is bands in france. of course that will tell you that no, we don't have any mercenaries because it's against the law. but even their own media are discussing this, hoping they just get you to you to reach you seen. does it public knowledge the dog saw sense? possibly hundreds. so french 5 to send ukraine today. new side effects and wanted
8:03 am
to know to a tribute indeed, it's mostly crude, this precious nationalist, currently finds in the ukraine. according to the said, he had still money who regularly visit the troops and ukraine between the 6th and 7th, the frenchman, integrated into ukrainians. eunice hides for a minimum wage. he also mentioned that between 20300, the french nationalist was dual citizenship who might have previously subs into for religion and no fighting for kids. in the very early days of the pool, the printed president crazed what he calls the international legion of territorial defense. so this frenchman, may well have belongs to these formations. all these french moment is going on with the approval of the french foreign ministry, or is it actually a private initiative? well, no, under no circumstances, would they go with the official approval? oh, no french soldier is officially fights in ukraine on behalf of france. so officially speak didn't franz says and insist that it knows nothing about these mercenaries yet. so friends parties are piling up in ukraine as we know,
8:04 am
this is not the 1st time we've heard this and in general. now this is why the reaction of russia has something to the frenchman basset, or in most of we'll see, will come out of that. normally we don't hear much after such meetings is basically a telling, often trying to get more information about that. but it normally remains private, as known. friends is interested employment for long in this conflict. and we've seen that from other western allies as well. but in france or even discussing this, hopefully for example, there is a politician that came out recently and part of his uh, alex roll campaign. he's saying that they're interested in prolonging the conflict in ukraine. they're talking about long term military support because it will boost their military industrial complex. so they're doing this for their own the benefit . now also we know that this week we have heard from president emmanuel, mike found that they're sending even more weapons. what are they sending now around? 40 scouts miss. how's? these are the ones that are known as the storm shadow. marseilles are a long range,
8:05 am
as well as hundreds of other bombs. now these are storm missiles here, the key west and, and you frames are seen on and they need desperately more. and by sending them these weapons, they are in fact prolonging the conflicts in ukraine. and they know this, and it seems that because they're a benefit and this is why they're doing it. and we also spoke to a former, a french general, and he told us of these mercy and mercenaries that are there and need to understand that they're there at their own risk. because again, of course, naturally for russia, they are eligible to mit target. at the moment we are in a state of war, were needed in russia, clashing auditors and a few crane. so french, most numerous disciple, personal reasons to join the war on one side or the other. they are obviously aware of the risks they have chosen, their own feet, have an end of the game. they have already lost. russia is absolutely correct. you can see that these french, most of these legitimate military target, just as ukrainians would not hesitate to shoot french most. nobody's fighting on russia site without expecting to hear anything from france. other than denials,
8:06 am
we're not expecting to hear anything from the french in basrah here in most, but they will continue to deny it. but the fact remains 5, and that is that we found french bodies in ukraine. not many thanks to coming in with those details. maybe not cause a rifka. thank 2. let's continue the conversation now with a guest, montgomery of a former city, a security policy on the left in the office of the secretary of defense. many thanks for joining the program. stay michael. so the french farm industry denies the presence of his most nerves in ukraine, couldn't get, quote, another clumsy russian manipulation. what do you make of it? well, i think he's wrong that. and if the since russia claims they have the proof, i think that that's a very telling. and i am sure that they will show the that proof to the, to the french minister. this is not unheard of in any war, you're always going to have your mercenaries. the question really is a sanction by the, by the french government. in this case,
8:07 am
it certainly is by the british government and the u. s. government certainly has allowed our private military contractors to go one all the way officially. they will try and discourage it, but it's a business, it's a business, and they go when you're paying it least in the american case up to $250000.00, a year of that, that's a, that's a considerable sum of money. so then that's where they're going to take their chances, and we're going to, and it may not be as much from uh, the french or the british, but certainly it's more than they're making up if they had to go out and get a job on the economy what are you know, as the marina was just saying french t v or even openly talking about it the 1st time passed as we know it's been called to the russian foreign ministry. now do you think we can expect to any details to emerge from the conversation that happens there? and then what is the likelihood that funds would acknowledge that most scenarios,
8:08 am
all fighting fee, key points and for all? well, i think that the minister will act accordingly. he'll get of uh, he'll laugh, shocked and amazed at the, at the, at this news. and the claim that it's not allowed by the french government. but in fact, it's feeding into the backgrounds narrative of, uh, looking at the war and ukraine as, as essential otherwise. in his view, in macross view of moscow will continue to envelop all of a western europe, which is straight dick. it was. so this is a and m a chrome, a for his own personal reasons, needs to stand out. he needs to show that he's got something in charge when the other you're e u countries are beginning to flag a little bit by that. i mean, waiver in terms of our commitment to supporting ukraine. so he's,
8:09 am
he's right out in front these as you pointed out in your, in your broadcast that he's, he's adding more uh, more fuel to the fire by providing more logistics. and so that, that shows that there is no standing down by the government of france. they're just looking for other ways to go about it. and i would say that that's the same for the british, and that'll be the same for the united states. the, the powers is so adamant that it doesn't have any, there are no french mercenaries fighting anywhere in the world to you. what's the biggest risk? hey, what are the legal ramifications for sending most scenarios to a foreign country in the states of war to? well, they say they get killed. that's for one thing. and secondly, uh the, the, uh, it lowers the credibility of that government. when, when evidence as reported to be shown here, is demonstrated to the world. and so it lessens the credibility and macro needs to,
8:10 am
to gain all the credibility he can get. and, and because even internally in his own country in france is his, his, um, his credibility, his and his ability to govern is being highly questioned. and it, and, and it's just a question of time whether even his own m. o. d, ministry of defense is got to continue. so learning and, and carrying out what they want to do, but in terms of mercenaries. so again, there's more money involved and a lot of these companies will go ahead and do it. they'll go through 3rd countries, if necessary, as long as they're being paid. question is, where's the money coming from? if it's coming from ukraine, who's the money, is it? and so is, is the french government, provided it isn't coming from us funds that are not that have not been approved recently? so the question is, who's, who's paying the bill and, and,
8:11 am
but you're always going to have mercenaries in any fight that you have. i think they'll come from a variety of countries like we had, we've had black water and we're going to their mercy. they kept to come, come from, they come from all over the world under the, under the flag of the united states. and so this black water is known for the soap whole people from a different latin american countries, for example, to fight in the u. m. and when they did, they got slaughtered in by the u, i. e, in, in, you have an at the time that you are, he was attacking him. and so this is not unheard of. and, and, and, and, and french just got caught with their pants. now that's all i want to ask you about this. so there's comment made by the french defense minister who set the front to continue to assist ukraine and weapons. of course not in the scenario. first thing that is a good opportunity for both pharmacies, ami the economy. what's of the position say about the west, willingness to help bring the ukraine conflict to a close. it speaks that they have no intention of bringing it and that they intend
8:12 am
to continue to make money off of this. this work, this proxy war at the expense of every, at the expense of their future, their, their, their security. only a few entities and milk military industrial, complex entities are, are really raking in the money on this because they, they, they have to produce the weapons. but the rest of the, of the economy and the, and the standard of living and throughout europe is suffering. now we've, we've seen this now with their, their voluntarily voluntary cut back of the oil and gas from russia. and this is, this is harm their industry, their, their economy, their quality of life. and it's going to take at least a generation to recover, at least and, and, and they need to find alternative sources of energy and they're not doing so well.
8:13 am
and it's more expensive and more expensive as well, and they might come at least form a cd, a security policy on the list in the office of the secretary of defense. thank you so much for your time. always great talking to thank you. gonna take you to garza now we're at least a 142 people have been killed and is where the strikes on the enclave in the last 24 hours, according to the palestinian health ministry. local journalist. so now come on, bring says that these house, the source in here, and this is the site as i get to add that as visit any odd music video. the 1st place i'm doing now the list, the safety that you need all the people, most of them, the woman would have the site. ringback on me as $61.00 pounds of of the other one a to think on sunday the night before the 4th month role
8:14 am
is subject to do so i love the schedule due to the and the military action on to board. and then as if you see the cost of late, like day by day to see where is it becoming good? dire. i'm the project care as soon as you know can system know about the pay, say i've made to down going to that i and it is sites for a part of we a for a week is you communications as a communications is all had to be fish for sunday, which support the and i was calling to isolate issues and then most of them know what's happening with it is 10 minutes strategies and the areas. is that the odd? yeah, sure. is there any military information like how do you and it says to see i'm of as the, the site i didn't find out a this instead of because of that as well as their because of the city. and they
8:15 am
didn't know to part of the sunday. they didn't central gone to the enclave. smallest composition total grew and those people were sons of the homes. and in attempts to retrieve what's left local, say that nothing remains is not on this offer. in god's, i'm neither stones nor trees, nor people of were spared from israel. israel has destroyed all life and goes out. there is no food, no water, no gas. there are no necessities for life here and home. there are no rich and poor here. everyone has become equal. as no one owns benefits, many came up. we did not expect the extent of this destruction. everything has tons interval. my family was killed, all land is gone and our house is gone. this is all a situation where the destruction is everywhere in the all my guys account. there is not a single house lift. everything is in ruins. i have nothing left,
8:16 am
nothing. my family and everything i own is gone down. the wave was told by phone with a gauze, a residential. you spoke of the horrors. he said he's directly seen in the, in the cave during the as rarely invasion as well as the list solved. we were trapped for 22 days in our residential area. and these really military entered the area and opened fire and our neighbors wounding. at least 2 of them, i heard the loud barking of dogs. i found the small puppy with a child's foot and it smelled, fighting for it with another dog. it turned out to be the limb of our neighbors. children who were still trapped under the rubble and could not be rescued. perhaps the most shocking thing i witnessed was our neighbor, whose house was completely bumped a month ago. she was cradling the bodies of her 2 children, aged one and 3 who had not been rescued. she survived but passed away 10 days later, after her house was bombed, when they were attempts to rescue her from under the rubble. but all the efforts
8:17 am
failed. we tried to give her water and dates to keep her alive for as long as possible, hoping that the blockade would be lifted. we could saver the but the faith had other plans. i can also say that these really occupation forces violated the sanctity of the deceased by excavating cemeteries and the mass graves at el cheapo hospital were also excavated during the hospital siege. and some bodies were stolen on, on the eye witness to decompose the bodies in the streets, being overrun by tanks and military vehicles. dead people and the bodies of those killed were crushed by vehicles. while young people from the neighborhood were targeted. the high ranking officials and this relative i did, whether to launch a preemptive strike on hezbollah, a neighboring lebanon, in, in the non preemptive attack, against has of all,
8:18 am
i need to know. political settlements will help at wanting to know if can be of the most pay full, but we must not leave the task to the next generation of our children. we prevented a very wrong decision because according to the publications, if a decision were to be made to attack lebanon, we would have brought about him aust, leader young austin was strategic vision of immediately provoking a regional war. i think our presence there prevented the state of israel from making a very serious strategic error. the decision looms as the idea is already long strikes the gaze, southern lebanon, there's hospice that's with damage to infrastructure. assessing buildings on fire before the weekend between as well as lebanon, has seen intensive 5 exchanges since the events on october, the 7th. and it is, well people are expressing support for potential conflicts with its nose and neighbor that we need to go to a well because i don't see any other way. i mean, i don't think cruise, but i will just move away. they keep firing at my house,
8:19 am
my home a every day, every day. and i don't think they willingly move away and stop the well, the world, the state already doing says well as a proxy of the run need to be very concerned that if they want stop and they want to reach an agreement, that is really is able to do more than that in order to make sure that they really defend their people for the long term. and not just recently, we won't be able to get to any other agreements with the spelling the noise. if we don't go to go, that's not discussed this with ali hobby, a strategic on the list joint. it goes from they really to many thanks to joining us on. the program stays very nice to see. so we're seeing mixed messages coming from nothing y'all. he's competed weather as well, should the top level done or not? how likely is it another conflicts, codes and folds, and folding them at least as will
8:20 am
see the whole of his goodman, the and his military uh, military section of intelligence. agency the uh to within every uh, bought on his own 3. so it means there is no go ahead and the declaration between the 3 bought these inside the, the is really entity. nothing. yeah. hold declaration about that. would it be a no, but a student in the state doing his rules. it means he's inviting the west bank for the new big us and before the against the is a l. uh. now. so it means his, he wants the world to be expanded on old ways in all directions. and that the whole thing that in case the war is the ending to model or would be. and then to model
8:21 am
it means that his political life is also will be ended or who would be in a jail. so declarations between the 3 affections and, and is, will. we can see one he say is saying that we, we should stop the war. the other is saying that we showed the. ready for truth the, about nothing, yeah. whole and his colleagues saying that we should stay and continue and in this award. and so we demolish and, and how i'm us and destroy in and flat them level and it goes on. this will not be happening because by time we are entering the 4th beginning of the 4th month. now with this war, uh, all the aggression is really aggression against, as a,
8:22 am
is not going back. even we can see some american declaration that they are asking nothing. yahoo! to cut them down or so it's not true. the united states is leading this aggression again because uh, american united states is leading the attack against a young man against it. i and also activating isis against it on syria and later on against tasha. let me tell you when the american withdrawal from against them, at least that go to this was working at the pentagon and she said we created isis, k and afghanistan to so we can activated at any time against china, shaw and hit on me expanding the war by august united states and as i added,
8:23 am
and the clearly against that i shot a child in uh, shanghai in the system. a lie. i don't know up to now why you, we are so shy. why we are so shy. united states, sorry, and i shot china and it on not to declare a powerful ally against to face the august a lie from the other side. i'm coming back to that. this is focus on 11 and so now now we've seen the intensity of the is where the fall involvements of gauze that runs the data or the overall policy to what was part of cities in general. do you, what do you think that is where he is capable of taking similar actions against lebanon us as we see, if we see it from the military wise, we can see the, the, the making eyes and, and sense the big gains, or is there any army is so uh they, they,
8:24 am
they what they lost the prestige and followed against does and also and level. and i'm the, they have fee of the, of the widely annual front, up on the north against level and on. because they, you know, the hezbollah is 10 times at least most powerful then uh, how about us. and they know, uh that they open this upfront, widely, and uh, fundamentally, it means we, uh, go into uh, region award. uh and uh, in the area. united states is saying, let's put a as we see that digital way. otherwise united state is separate than the fonts like united states. as i said before, united states and august, i guess uh uh, yeah, man, well well, why let the palestinian and uh and live on his face and is where he lives and
8:25 am
supported by united states. i think no one will edit 3. but right now the world is going to be extended and expanded in that asian and nothing. yeah. who will not? the 3, i think he would go to build the end. even though he can see that he's going from one foolishness to another, or from one say load to another uh through his uh, army ali on a strategic on the less many thanks for speaking to us today is great to get your thoughts on the situation. thank you. now, hundreds of people in georgia and have taken to the streets of the account. it was a voice that supposed of palestine on the gainst is wally aggression in garza, local journalist centers this report. i am sending downtown on mine in front of them was that uh it was for upon the sign,
8:26 am
the union people got through here every friday to protest for palestine and against . is there any occupation, especially b, is rarely worth of going on on guessing right now. people are changing for young men. they're charging for south africa. their demands in pennsylvania and government to stop any agreements with the usa or with israel. they're demanding. there's a denny and government to do a bigger role. the everyone is changing. sure. policy to reduce the source of mass. they're changing for bigger international rules. they're charging for people to see the genocide that is going on and how to sign. there is another protest, right? now going in front of the american embassy and there is a 3rd pro 10 today on social media demand in egypt to open that up for, for border in order for the a to, to enter a gaza. this is the wage or it any history to have been for more than a 100 days right now is your day and people are very close to policy and people in
8:27 am
terms of culture and believes. and so, you know, it seems like it's a war going on right here in jordan, in terms of how people feel close to these people that are dying in belgium has a known state will supply a naval vessel to assist the u. s. mission now countering whose base device and the red sea mouse as washington now confirms who is the rebels launch missiles. that's an americanized congo shape of the human coast. on friday morning, the west central kimonos claims the vessel was not hits, but the who sees it say otherwise. of the human and naval forces. i've carried out an operation. i guess the us vessel came ranger and the gulf of ad and using a number of naval ms. so thanks to god the he, the most precise and directly to the 3 year many um, forces emphasize the responses to american. and british offences are inevitable. and any further offence will be made by retaliation and punishment when it comes a day off to american forces. long stay fresh,
8:28 am
round of strikes on who the talk is inside human tension. is it being spiraling since january the 12th when us and british military's began foaming multiple areas held by the rebel group? the western coalitions assaults came in was suppose to who's your talks on cargo ships, links to as well. of course assaults on concept places and find insights. the us will keep them, bowman, young men despite say to the, to the who feeds off for a week of strikes. the speaking who is from the many capital journalists announced a robbie told is west of the time in effects if because the country has already survived years of devastating funds for my cell. the legs come pay, it does not work. i told because the house, these have been under such a bombings uh for 10 years now. and uh and uh now what does that um, recons,
8:29 am
i'm the british bowman. yeah. uh is only the bombed out things and they've been, they've been out. so the of, of the effectiveness is almost 0 and people don't care at all because they see that what they have to, i mean the amenities and the pro fees are things out. what they are doing is a duty is a religious and morale. i'm the human italian duty towards the end of it, or of brothers and sisters in dallas. teen via the tax are uh, the tax on the and then the ritzy. uh, not the unit, the innovation. they are not getting the shipment. they are not charging us any ship, the tax, all right, in this very specific things. they are a very, very specific. i'm very limited to that, that the ships, the hitting to israel and to the ships link to israel and to the ship's own devices
8:30 am
. right. and the fees and it'd be blue said they would do their best to make it very safe to make that it's a very safe iran on china having those to be here based on so be rebel groups attacks on ships in the red sea in retaliation is rounds will on garza and where people 2 ends, one sick funds, the guys, the palestinian people stop teaching contention in the red sea is a prominent manifestation of the spillover of the gods of conflict. thus the top priority is to close the war in gaza. as soon as possible to prevent it from further expanding or even getting out of control on take care of the security and the reps is tied to developments in gaza and everyone will suffer if israel's crimes that do not stop this by the who the repeated statements that, that reg, fee of talk, so in direct response to his way the crimes in gaza. washington.
