the the, the congress admits that some of the countries nuff fields are fighting in ukraine, but it will do a thing about its wild mercenaries are legal in france itself. also this hour they practice the worst parts of torture on us. we stayed in the rain for more than an hour, and they beat us while we were tied up to his newly released palestinian detainees . this tribe that religion abused by the idea, we hear from a lawyer investigating a lot of manage subspace. the thousands who are sitting in prison, but unfortunately they don't even present service and that is radio completion of the thirty's are not responding to any of our requests concerning the thousands of detainees. a senior high mazda official exclusively tells artsy the gals in

militant brit box calls from the you in for a last thing through southern news. prisoners won't deal with issues. we are looking for a final total comprehensive excuse for which kind of low to open the voters, to live the season or no, the $820.00 shift or the launch. and there is another exchange bus. the council on american islamic relations condemns the so called sweetheart d. o for a former us official who's being offered a deal to avoid prison for harassing i allow food vendor in new york. the bases are to international. my name's you know, me love. 30 minutes of news and views starts dollar, or the french defense minister has been forced to admit that some of the countries nationals have in fact,

been fighting against russian ukraine. the power is official said the government cannot stop citizens from volunteering as mercenaries. despite the fact that such activities are prohibited in front was issued to infancy, the french civilians who went to fights in ukraine wearing ukrainian military uniform. these people have no connection with the french armed forces. they do not wear a french uniform and they have no association with french military institutions. we combine them from doing so. we have still a democracy. the french defense chief was walking bucket. come for dick, think plain from the countries foreign ministry which denied that any french mercenaries are fighting a new train. it's after russia stay the dozens of french soldiers all fortune had been killed in a recent strike on the eastern ukrainian city of har. com, the bronze helps you bring with supplies of military material and military training in full compliance with international law. france has no mercenaries,

neither in ukraine nor elsewhere, unlike certain others, so, especially in france, knows nothing about any french mercenaries in ukraine spots. french bodies are piling up there, which is why russell's summons, the french from bass row 2 is for administered on friday. but of course, nothing is expected to come out of that. the, the fisher has been saying that therefore, in mercenaries, a new crane all along is something that has been documented as well. but frances, having none of it claiming it knows nothing. of course they know nothing because there's no reason in legal there, but that's not stopping their media from openly discussing it. can you do choose team, does it public knowledge, the dogs, thousands of possibly hundreds. so french 5 to send ukraine today to find this is extremely to the new toy attribute things it's,

it's most of those precious nationals. i currently flights in the ukraine. according to the said, he had 2 months regularly because of the troops and ukraine between the 6th and 7th, the frenchman, integrated into ukrainian units hired for a minimum wage. he also mentioned that between 20300, the french nationalist was dual citizenship. might, could previously subs for the religion and know, fighting for kids. in the very early days of divorce, the printed president raised what he calls the international legion of territorial defense of it. so this frenchman may well have belongs to these formations. all these french moment is going on with the approval of the 1st born 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 and ukraine on behalf of france. we know that france is interested in prolonging the conflict and ukraine because they are politicians are admitting it themselves when they call for long term military

support for kids and highlighting how much of the benefits their own military industrial complex. and this is as presidents, emmanuel, my chrome announced this week that around a 40 scale massage, also known as storm shadow mess, miles as well as hundreds of other bombs will be delivered. so you pray in the next few weeks. and now these long range storms shuttle missiles are a key weapon, any praise arsenal. so once again, the west is escalating, a conflict that could have ended a long time ago. and they're doing this by continuing to send weapons for their own benefit and getting body bags in return. that'd be advice from a former french general to mercenaries out there your own, your own, and a legitimate target. so be aware. at the moment we are in the state of war, were needed, and russia clashing on the territory, few crane. so french as there is the size of 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 are legitimate military target, just as ukrainians would not hesitate to should french most. nobody's fighting on russian side. it seems that price will continue to know in the existence, all french mercenaries and ukraine. because if i had met snow in about them, it will have to at least appear to be doing something about it. and that's definitely not very good for weapons sales or their long term anti roll. so strategy called earlier, another of my colleagues, nicky, are in spoke with french geo political specialist. so do you do lot said some of the country citizens are being actively encouraged to go fight for groups in ukraine and are joining neo nazi units is to speak about french messing. there is a new brain. then you have to understand that we have different kind of people

different kind of pro 5. we have nursing or is a who can because the belongs to the new meds, the movements. the 2nd part is people we decided to go inside and ukraine against the russian federation because they believed in something those people, most of the time the, what i call the useful idiots were believed in what they're told. and they say all we need to go and fight for liberty and we go and fight for democracy and things like this. all the kind of nursing are, is that you can find it's full, the praying soul yours, that we're serving in the french foreign legion for example, but decided to break the contract from the legion. so this whole concept of most scenarios has more complex than it seems. however, false is view on paper when it comes to the situation to crate that they've been steadfast on it, that they fully support ukraine. if they, they be no significant changes on the front line that we've seen in terms of

ukraine's fav up. yet the best thing about weapons and needed funds will continue to support ukraine houses, process position. and these view effect, though is he might want to be willing to leave phones to go and fight for ukraine. when you find people in the streets in paris that are giving flyers, the french citizen, go and fight with me. as of battalion speed only really means that in france we have a problem because we cannot master his problem. in june 2024, we have europe and the elections, right. and with the situations and with the situation that we have actually in your opinion and in france, it's much better to drill people's attention to something else. then to draw people that functions to the real problem that we have of the, the, the plight of palestinians detained by the idea as has been highlighted by the

united nations, unofficial. for the world bodies, human rights office phase. he's interviewed civilians who are allegedly tortured by his really trips. i've managed to meet a number of release detainees. they described being beaten and humiliated, subjected to ill treatment and to what may amounts to torture. they reported being blindfolded for long periods, some of them for several consecutive days. there are reports of men who were subsequently released but only in diapers without any adequate clothing in this cold weather. well, some of the recently released palestinian men are now recovering and hospital in the southern galvan city of the rough on their bodies show visible signs of abuse including wounds on their arms and legs. here's how the former detainees described their deals at the hands of the idea model. so idea, they practice the west types of torture on us. it was a rainy night,

so they took us to a northern area and put us on the asphalt. it was raining hot and it was cold. we stayed in the rain for more than an hour and they beat us while we were tied up. some of the somebody that i was detained for 38 days, and we were only released today when i was detained. and these really army dog attacked me and beat my hand during detention. we were forced to sit all day on our knees and we weren't allowed to move or even look around. i'm walking for the 1st time in 40 days. i wasn't allowed to walk at all. we were forced to sit on our knees 247 when it is rarely soldier wanted to show some empathy. they would let us move into a comfortable posture for 10 minutes, but we weren't allowed to lay down on the ground. while we spoke with human rights advocate, basel serrano, who described the as really treatment of gals and civilians as collective punishment. this is a word that started getting, he paid the police unions for being police damian's. it's not the one with him as but it's against the board,

but it's the needs including but his cnc begins should be punished. i mean, separate as days ago, the, is there any can a said approved and extension of an emergency board that, that allows is for a 2 or 3 p is to the 9th as teens access to lawyers. and this is for up to a 100 and a 2 days, but this decision has been extended for an additional and for a for months. and unfortunately this, the standards and certainly can give it to you and how they deal with that. but, but it's the in case is not to you, it has been happening for years. one of the reasons why he is writing is commenting . this is it's feeding that's, it has always been above that all eh, convention, national communities, especially western states, are focusing on the issue of is there any hostages, a and that's it did summit. but at the same time, you have to also focus on the conditions of the state of tennessee and thousands of

pretty seen in detainees. will be noticed that some of that goes as to and westbank period. and after the 7th of october, the events will a gallon and the human rights group has also shared the account of a medical worker who says he was seized by it's really soldiers. while on duty wearing a red crescent uniform and carrying his 1st aid kit. while lead on moore is from kansas city or a medic and father of 3, he spent a total of $41.00 days in the idea of detention where he claimed he was tortured by is really troops and threatened with death. this is what the emergency worker said . he injured. they removed the blindfold and i saw it why the soul just in dreams uniforms bearing the american flag. suddenly they saw as it punched in me and continued for a long time, fracturing some of my breast bones. they kept bidding me and showed me pictures of a tunnel, accuse me of coming out of it. didn't happen is rarely send americans and being from the have mass lead forces, spying on these rarely soldiers and existing in

a combat zone. i denied all of that as a by they electrically shocked me 5 times and severely beat me all over my body, causing unbearable pain due to breaking my ribs and injuring my head. when i couldn't bows a pain anymore, i admitted to all the accusations involved for the investigation violence. they took me in a kids except for my box the 2 yards. paused cold water on me and turned on the fence causing me to freeze. well, i will say invocation side the prison, one of the detainees died in the same page with lawyer above ulster rally who's now investigating wally's case phase. the mom was lucky to come out of detention alive while the fates of many other detainees remains on the unfortunate to you when he it is a among the thousands of said, but the scene, gainesville, have they who have been detained by dais, radio completion forces since the 7th of october, when he, the,

i've come out alive and but the thousands who are still in prison. but unfortunately, those are the present service and the is radio corporation also it, these are not responding to any of our requests concerning the thousands of detainees. water in inside is there any present? so we don't know data page among those to be deemed auditor buddy from and then the individual was like the director of and then she fos. but the data could else come out and i do one hospital and the we have a unfortunately no idea what, how many are alive? how many have been kids? how many a have been subjected to torture? our lawyer is in is there is they don't have access to them even. is there any organized human rights organizations? they've conditions the supreme court, but they have gotten no response except that is there a release it is releasing and those be obtained today. but unfortunately,

um, the situation is unbearable for them because we have many reports of torture, as we've seen from what needs case. well, the un say's garza is approaching a grin, milestone of $25000.00 dead since october 7th. well, many other victims remain all accounted for to it is a pressure cooker environment here in the midst of utter chaos, given the terrible humanitarian situation, shortages and pervasive fear and anger, the communications blackouts has continued for 6 consecutive day, adding to the confusion and fear and preventing guidance from accessing services and information on areas they can evacuate to as really a risk. for example, bard mentioned different parts of the gaza strip. have the gun on this top overnight policy that maybe goes sources say is that at least 170 people have

been kids and more than 90. others have been and you're the number of locations targeted or as throughout striking by the is where 80 every strikes and is very bombardment reached 1515 fail people because the jury, i never strikes a home around the odyssey of ours because also it's being reported that to these rated troops at 4 don't of a she was there a school to the west of guys. i set a malay, a non sovereign area on that arrested that many of those inside, many of the men at fried some of them and send them to the deborah by the high town and south of the gauze. us to have work as well had already demanded early of the war. and early days of the war demanded the gods, a residence, and those in gaza population to go to the south. where as rab is ignited as a safe show to her for then the soldering causes us to read regions, have also seen a number of places where aly ever strikes. some of the bug mentioned different

quotes starting from the midges garza thread. where is that? what the, where reports about to do cash is between andre existence, groups and methods and send us and to the east of the rage of the deacon, which as well invaded the several weeks ago. there had been reports about to flashes between is really the army and is right and the met attends to the east of my ghazi with as really average strikes by drones. it's continue all frequently, all the major area, including the rage of move i z and alyssa, right to repeat the cans. it's being reported to also that 90 families are from demagogy. or if he can, an upgrade to have his thoughts as returning back at a limited way to their homes that they abandon did during the day is really a re strikes and days where 80 operations across. so that may god's or if he can,

an upgrade to repeat, you can buy this, cho, does a life of or is there is, is not to that to is not that proper is not, does that live a boat? everything is evacuated, market places are working, get the young there on campus. that is that and the guys you know, say right, and right and rough i city as well there. and there have been this every strikes over night compared with the past few days. right. me, i mean i read r t and one of the low cult shelter cabs and drop by city south of the gaza strip home us once a new deal with israel that would see a prisoner swap. and a last thing for us to, according to senior guys and the official bus. and i you who spoke with us exclusively here in moscow on friday. here's a preview of the interview with be showing later in full we have both

a lot of proposals and the from different mediators. categories, egypt shows about it's important to cease fav, a visual node experience with the 1st ccf, which has been violated by this. so he has a total events. when it comes 1st to the humidity of an age, we were not able to send the need a few minutes of it to the northern part of guys that they have looked at when it comes to shore. think i'm coming from the scene is doing this for you. and also when it comes to be committed to the conditions or to the names of the list of people as teen and businesses, women and children on definitely the side to release them based on our list. unfortunately they have, they will not, they have not committed to so your saying that israel keeps violating the terms of any potential ceasefire when it, when it comes to the terms that you offer. yes, the 2nd piece was we are looking for a fine on it to turn the comprehensive seats. 5th. is that is, is that a 5?

is how much looking for an it is? yes, this is what we are looking for. which kind of low to open the voters to live the seized on know the aid to get in to goes up to the school. the rest of to been for the menu on posting as auto todd of ink and the see the blue kid. and finally, to initiate or to launch a vision of x to get a lot of interest in this next story, a former us state department official arrested on hate crying charges after a publicly harassing. you may recall a lawsuit vendor in new york may have his charges dismissed. that's if, according to prosecutors, he takes a so called the bias counseling program. the offer has been condemned by the council on american islamic relations, which is demanding justice. the salt of its ball and verbal abuse and harassment targeting is strict vendor was caught on video for all to see the sweetheart deals

you received from the manhattan. da's office is a shameful front of our justice system and hold on fitting to his actions, as opposed to an answer most, some biggest from hate crimes on the rise nationwide. and large punishments are slept in the face to the victims. the represent a failure to address the severity of the issue, perpetuating a cycle of injustice and further, marginalization well steward, selves of it's who worked as on a to brock obama when he was president, was arrested in november after a viral video showed him insulting in muslim worker in manhattan ortiz caleb martin has been looking deeper in to the controversial case. you were here on the upper east side of manhattan and 24 year old mohammed who's saying is hard at work. it is lunchtime. and he was the victim of a pro long street harassment campaign. months of intimidation and threats that were made by stuart selda with a former official of the obama administration. i was there and i was working on

a normal day and he come asked me about the, what are the from the information off the associate to me is about thomas and you can be able to use i didn't do anything of that. i also saw him talking about quote on something like this. i think my phone on record to him. now, i'm scared about what he can do for me because i'm just working here. i don't know of anybody. you know, the video of stuart sale, the widths and the hateful things he was saying to 24 year old mohammed uh, they circulated the internet and generated a huge amount of outrage. i bought a new terrace. you support her and they're saying go, i'm the i'm so i'm not some of you go, i'm just working user and you're a terrible person. you considering not me like oh my kids, what about my children?

not me go, i mean kill cho. okay. oh, i see you're retail $4000.00 for me and said, you know why it wasn't enough. wasn't this man who was harassing a street vendor, talking about using his political connections to get him deported and saying he would be tortured back in egypt saying very hateful things about his mom and muslim americans. he wasn't just anybody and he was a former official of the obama administration. and now we understand the prosecutors here in new york and given stewart sell the with a sweetheart deal. that's what many are referring to it as a sweetheart deal, where instead of facing any penalty, all you will have to do is take a sensitivity course to learn about muslim americans and the problems of beings racially insensitive the problems of making offensive comments. so many are looking at this and saying this is an example of a, a 2 tiered adjuster system where it seems like those connected to america's political lead. don't face account ability for their actions, while the criminal ports seem to have let stuart sale to it's off the hook for

a haps. there can be a lawsuit in which some justice is one in which some compensation is awarded to mohammed who was saying for what he endured. but there was widespread outrage not just here in the united states, but all over the world about what the young street vendor was subjected to. so you drove hate crimes charges against former obama official stewards. seldom it's a he harassed the street vendor multiple times and gleefully called for the depths of posting and children. and it was all cold and video. your office is a joke, replaced palestinian for jewish and see what would have happened to the perpetrator sold of it. some others like him, are untouchable, jail is only for the little people who can be hate crimes. a bama state department official guest charges dropped after he targets and stokes, a full truck vendor. no jail for steward. sel though it's just as a vice training. so the case has generated a lot of outrage, but it looks like the courts here in new york city. don't consider what sort sell

the woods did to be very serious and have given him what many are calling a sweetheart deal. we'll have to see how this case develops as legal proceedings. continue have a lawsuit goes. caleb mop and artsy, new york. just staying with that story, lead attorney and founder of the muslim legal law firm. hassan shibley's stays the case, reflects on an alarming case of what he calls is lama phobia among us collect petitions, despite large pro palestinian protests held by the american public. i think this case displays true extreme problems with the united states. the 1st is, don't forget who this individual was. this individual was responsible for helping shape us foreign policy towards palestine is real. and we see that is real feeling of a 100 children to date with american support, american weapons, the entire united nations. fact that means against, for digital is doing in america as one of the few nations that stands in support of israel's 4th of crimes against humanity. and i think seeing this individual and his

and so i must some anti or add to i tell assume hatred and the hatred that he's expressed. how he's the humanized and vilified his muscle neighbors and muslim businessman, i mean, i think that just reflects the problem of us foreign policy. you have people that are filled with hatred and they support policies that we ultimately see a leading terrific blood shed in the middle east. so when you see people like him, it's no surprise that america is unfortunately enabling the genocide of the palestinians. nato is on the fresh rhetorical of offensive, but we'll take members of the u. s. a group of nonce plans to 4 to 5. their borders with russia and beller. roost by building bunkers as a means to quote triple possible impression that's despite the block itself. recently expanding to include finland, which most cruces it has no fights to pick with the western lines and beijing as

also find itself on the receiving end of similar erotic claims with the nato chief accusing china of moving closer to the north atlantic block. in asia, a sign of the heavy investments in a mold on military capabilities, including more and more advanced nuclear weapons. a china also a way of behavior, especially in the south china sea. and the way china is actually violating core principles for night to the workers. see that the role of the we also have to understand that this is all about nathan moving into a show. but this, the about the fact that the child is coming closer. those, of course, need to has to address what happens in a saw a note because we order a global security lines about the calls for the purpose, they're not as follows, and vice versa. as the north atlantic treaty organization continues to expand its rates and to the far east brussels seems a bit overly concerned about some apparently aggressive chinese behavior in the

south china sea. it's a bit strange because nato has troops stationed in taiwan, which is let's not forget, a part of china itself. makes you wonder who is the real threat here, especially when beijing is the one calling to refrain from military activities and an end to the finger pointing from nato's american overlords. we urge the us to stop misleading, international public opinion with false narratives to strictly control and restrain from the line military activities and reframe from any provocative actions. more recently, a chinese delegation to washington again calls on the us to stop provoking beijing around taiwan. the whole situation bears a stark resemblance to the way rushes military operation in ukraine went down. according to the west, russia, it was the aggressor from the beginning, no matter how many nato countries were propped up on its border over the years. the 1st intentions that went toward against the grain with the the cleared aim to get

less, nate, he's getting the exact opposite is getting more natal presence in eastern parts of the lines on who's getting to new members or with a phenomenon. so you, there's no mention of nato's broken promise not to expand past. it's 1991 borders or it's study military build up over the years. the bus didn't have an idea of the nathan military block has increased its overall activity dramatically of late. considerable forces and resources from the united states have been re deployed to our borders, including aircraft. the number of nathan troops in eastern and central europe has increased. let me remind you of what we all know. in 1991, they promised gorbachev. no, no, not an inch to the east. well, here we are. this is the kind of partners they are. they shamelessly lie through their teeth. at the same time, the block is no longer hiding its aggressive nature behind defensive rhetoric. i was told, years ago, it was not a military block, but a political organization. and last time i checked,

article 5 was still in place. at the same time, as i said, the aggressive nature of the blog is not being hidden. us policy doctrines explicitly spell out it's claims to global supremacy. go through spectrum with continual nato expansion in the far east and no sign of the west giving up on taiwan separatism, calling china and aggressor looks like another classic case of the west gas lighting. everyone who doesn't agree with them. no, it's never the easiest starting a relationship, but when you find who you hope will be your crew loves on the front lines of a conflict that's accentuated. some want to stay with us next for that very story and are short documentary and officers of the

.
