as the, the town itself is firmly under the control of the russian forces. there are no sabotaged groups. there's no ukrainians, or there's no ukrainians who left here who decided to stay here willingly. strategic city of, of gas coast taken was russian armed forces evacuate schools of wounded ukrainian troops who apparently left behind. the result says it's upset. israel is declared, it's president of the so non drop this to comparing the depth of civilians in gaza to the whole the cold. excessive is there any governments have given the sea of people, only 3 options displacement, subjugation. both that while this time demands israel and the documentation of the

legal proceedings against the v again to the united nations court and the have the come to lie from us. do you do a must go your watching oxy. money's pete to scott taking over from nicky, are in a, with all the latest this monday. if we thanks for joining that's our top story. this, all the russian forces have assume full control of, of the, of getting it on the city. after you printing troops hastily retreated from the strategic location and his odds, easy. going to start up with his report from the c. uh uh, throughout the day that we have been working here, we have been hearing gunshots, and we have been hearing brushing tillery until ukrainian out, generally as well, working hard and going up each other. but 1st and foremost, the town itself is firmly under the control of the russian forces. there are no, uh, sabotage groups. there's no ukrainians,

or there's no ukrainians who left here who decided to stay here willingly. rather leap was a mess over we over a withdrawal. and so not everybody simply got the got the order to full back towards last that you can and so on and so forth. we're working with the, with the mining cruise and with the i would assume the teams that whose main task is to clear everything to clear anyone who may have remained hidden in the basement . so over all these uh, buildings. and the, what i have to say is that since a lot of ukrainian troops presumably were left here, were abandoned that by that own 2 months, they may be hiding basements, and they may be looking to obtain civilian clothing so that they could disguise themselves as locals. and so that they could evacuate fast to russia and then 2 of the and well then probably to go home and try to sneak back into ukraine. this is the tactic that we have seen in pretty much every town,

every major city here in the don't bass that was liberated by the russian armed forces. of course i would group, i will be bringing you more form of dave. i will be bringing you more reports. this is just a sneak peak into and you can probably hear you can probably hear tillery working. this is because the fighting is ongoing. ukrainian, the russian forces are trying to, uh, forbid, the, to prohibit the ukrainian, the account by the ukranian enemies from a gaming of foothold. i don't new positions that are closer to up. dave. good, which is very, are important of course, because the, the main goal of leverage, but to make sure you've been that's safe because it hasn't you or the violent violent settings. in the past months, the city was ukrainian stronghold boats has been devastated by years of fighting the russian armies. now clearing mines in the city, well, i'm building this stuff. a little damage is a church and the russian orthodox clergy has called it's a miracle. want us go,

he found shelter that describes how people felt about the developments to us on top of all we'll have to survive like this kind of in the basements. that was the only way somebody done the debris. someone looked at this of life. i just couldn't leave, it's my home. i live in the church, it belong to shut it down and run away. or the 17th i still russian soldiers coming into the city. i sold them and couldn't believe it. so now we're forever with russia mach, my was of dave cuz he's not ukrainian warehouse. people are, are overwhelmed with emotions, but we're all happy that we're finally home. the of the difficult coke plants, which is the largest coal processing facility in europe, has now been fully cleared of ukrainian troops. according to moscow, russian forces say they've evacuated over 20 wounded ukrainian soldiers who behold, open to plants on nearby strugglers,

were upon the abandoned by their commanders as keeps troops fled the city before it was taken by russia over the weekend is what we heard from several service men who now control of the of that guard, since their exit was unplanned, they abandoned their injured soldiers and their own injured fighters. generally the officers and also of units were the 1st to withdraw from on the near their command . abandoned them, they had no communications. i would say the guys were new here. they didn't know the terrain. the guys were confused and panicking. meanwhile, the german media has reported the billing supplied ukraine with us, designed, and vehicles that went fit for combats. the transports is apparently had insufficient protection against missiles on long lines, and it also be sold to germany. it's a triple, the regular price. we spoke with berlin state parliament smith, but do not lindman. he says it's the only we don't people have phone the brothers of paying for the war and you claim the german don't have enough reference for themselves. and the now is the german government,

the selling weapons to little green and government and know, cause a lot of business man at night omega their own business with this use of the dealer. they change that price. and so, and that takes the money from the government, but in fact, it's the money of the german tex payoff. drummond tex pay also the pay triple. the full credit you pay, it was okay in government for the house or double cream and government, they pay for the weapons. they live up to dual credit union army. and of course, government tax bells pay for the refugees which came from him to germany. and of course, i think is not good to insect or so on to deliver any reference to credit union. the government claims the loss of the city of idea of kind. the dentist republic has only compounded the kids' problems. now it's help you create and official says, the country minds have to, for the sacrifice is own economy. is it set to mobilize movies with forced to serve

a soul just on the front lines? in fact, only 2 categories of people can really be mobilized. the 1st is the approximately 2800000 people who are officially employed and almost 600000 active individual entrepreneurs. the 2nd category is men who are in ukraine, but about 3 mistake knows nothing at all except for their individual tax numbers. they do not work anyway, do not pay taxes, do not serve in the army. they just all want to discuss this further. the less now cross live to offer and war correspondence almost robot who's joining us from st. petersburg. thomas, thanks very much for taking the time speak to us today. um, are you creating politicians in the wake of what's happened in a gift card with russia? taking it over the weekend. they said that they do fund to take back a gift from russian forces. how loudly do you think that is what to do from your expression that probably not very likely well, this is you're not, you have to be this dentist. we see everywhere and the you try, getting used to they have a lack of soul just they have

a lack of weapons with what they want to take back. anything as far as i informed the russians even go further ahead after vs. and i think they will also go on an offensive and other regions. now a vs got was the most important point for russia, because this was the place from where artillery shells the mets. and this should be stopped now. and now they can concentrate themselves on the russians can concentrate on other parts of the front line. and so your price taking something back. well, i don't think so. you know, what were you mentioned, thomas, that ukraine is? is a shots on soldiers. and conscription has been somewhat of a toxic issue for politicians in ukraine. um there's also been reports of them. they've dropped in business people. the work is potentially having a negative impact. so he's already still going economy. what do you think about that? will it's have to recreate small people,

the cost of its economy to get it. they have no choice. the problem is in general, this is something you might, i felt about this abundance of gold rush and we get to set those all the time. i'm thinking you crating the maximum living, recollect 50, maybe, maybe 20000000 people. so half of the official population of people left to rush out before the conflict to europe before the conflict because of the crash of the economy. often the my done, and after the beginning of the russian operation again, there was a big wave of refugees leaving ukraine. the host with 5 who started work the to re book ukraine after the war, even with whom, because we see from, from europe they and also officially they have thousands of ukrainians will go back and the trends from russia. i think they will not go back any way so they will have from not only have the moment now with fighting. they will probably later rebooted the country because social work that they had old people. oh,

so you're aware that ukraine has now installed a new military commander. he says that's the point is now to focus on defense with ukraine being on the by for do you think that's the right decision for ukraine to do? or do you see what's in making more advances in the wake of, of the of can i ask you if god wants defense? i wasn't doing it several times and i, i've been e met the front end of the of got and it was really hot to crack because something for the vacation that. so even this they weren't able to help to hold. or we have been seen this in buttonwood now that other uh, edited. it puts off the front line. um, they have no trust to go in and do defense because they have no power to go to and not offensive, but with what to defend. if they even were not able to hold the strongest uh, frontier if occasion. this is also the question, i think the russians are having to have quite the choice where to go. hm. what was that? have to see what happens in, in the coming weeks. tell us about the ortho. and what correspondent joiners from st. petersburg. thanks very much for your time today. thank you. we've known to all

the news now. paula stein has spoken out against israel, of the united nations caught in the hague, accusing tel aviv of committing atrocities for decades with infinity, from global powers. the genocide underlay and gaza is the result of the case of impunity and in action. successive is there any governments have given the city of people, only 3 options. displacement, subjugation, or death occupation can only be a temporary state of affairs. a permanent occupation is a legal oxymoron on the posting inside. we can hear that they are more than ready and waiting for such a hearing for a long time to happen. so they are extremely happy and grateful with such a fortune, see, and also to be there at the hearings. so today is, as you've said,

is the 1st hearing of the i, c, j to answer the question that was asked by the you, engine, or assembly back in december 22. and the question was, is what is the, there is a few patients, patches and power spend territories at this moment. as especially right now, you know, with the, with the 10 site taking place in jazz a and also a solution about it's what's going to happen with the occupations with the education and supplements, increasing in the west bank and parts of the east jerusalem. and also, or something that say might be some changes of the old city of the, of, to us. and also we could get some history about this is not the 1st time that the i, c, j is asked to ask about the class that suits us as your on substitution of how science, how stories were also, as i mentioned before in 2004 i think deals also us that or what does a solution? again, offices are all when it starts at building the irony walls around the west bank

smell for the next phase. uh for this hearing zone storm to take 7 days in action and started today in february, 19th, and tomorrow we shall be hearing from south africa. oh, sure. yeah. so it'd be over here and the netherlands and some other countries to, to get the question today is the occupations tentatively or not. and as more to the status of the occupation officer. oh, nice to to announce as well so, so the hearings are illegitimate and that it will continue to defend itself. israel does not recognize the legitimacy of the proceedings of the international court in the hague, regarding the legality of the occupation, which are an effort designed to infringe on israel's rights to defend itself against excess central threats. the proceedings in the hague or part of the palestinian attempt to dictate the results of the diplomatic settlements. without negotiations, we will continue to reject this the government and the conduct that are united in

rejecting this unacceptable course of action. less cost live now to political experts, you'll have high, far away. who is the support to all policy your rights on the one of the democratic states initiative. thank you very much for finding time to speak to us today. your festival. i just want to find out how significant the current case against is read in the united nations codes in the hague is in fact, it is how to be optimistic about the international gold. because he's no longer 100 years of design isn't more than 100. he is a ministry, a we have named us in international interventions to defend the height of understand yes, one of the part but the, i think the public opinion was substituted always involved. and we produce where we chose the 3 already notices for many years. but it is excellent,

i think now because of the shopping, the general subject is performed in gaza. whether any, so those big fell out of there was a want to say something stage, the gas, the guys and so you gotta do is to kind of see and people and i how the international call to use this opportunity to express itself in, in uh about the kinds of patient and about it is out to be optimistic that even needs to call to really say something clear about it. is it between being limited into, into everything done. that's not an issue on these lines because the sides are cont, was a wednesday cards, a word based system that it states and to tell is, is a risk. they don't have any doubts international. know and ran into our lives in this thing is i don't, but well, what do you think it would take for to change

a benjamin netanyahu whose approach to the situation and does obviously this isn't the 1st case, initiates it against israel. south africa also launched one against the country, but obviously the war in gaza has continued. what do you think it would make for the approach to gauze it to change? i think it, it is a renewed interest having television. but because the big balls are most into running it, we need to know to buy 0 and, and then the forward dollar to the forms of sale, dog. and i think that the public opinion is a very strong, disappointing processing aspect. not only our public opinion, but on you as a list on file. so it seems it's really losing the insurance on it owns the vision . it all and all the 0 on them. i had spoken it then. yeah. the time. yeah. i would not stop. it said, it is logic. how's it going to go into a device?

how it works is me? well, obviously the us is one of the stone faced allies of israel, unsupported. these are those right to defend yourself. do you think that's a change in the us position? would have an impact on the wall the i think that's easy to do now to stay. so wanted to stop this so you can do it is a telephone call. you don't have to apply it or to me, but the deal now is the phone call. so talk. tell me the exact time ago. most deadly they know like me and you by them. these are the times beginners for for now . but drop the tell him is does that go on. busy on kidmore, but it's been yes. and this is why they've been out according means they're about to say genocide. your like is it probably kids are and i did send is moving and they receive for moment thing. so you guys here for this thing and then and

then a georgia american be been awful a maybe as soon as i yeah, it goes on. so we see that this demo policy has no value to it. so the, the big ones i'm seeing, but the government on something is and it is dreamed why did it want to do in spite of even the people that was doing that it states, well it was the apologist for insect your morning to the bar in 50 to 80 falls some changes. yes. oh yeah, we have seen a many protesting supports of palestinians, both in the us on, throughout the world. but unfortunately there's no end to the war and gossip inside your fault. we supposed to upon us and you'd rights on the one democratic states initiative like so which results to down 92nd well these are the following minister declared presenting and presidents fluid, the silver persona non grata following comments that he made on the conflicts in gaza. lena compared it to the holocaust and he said that the nation which was once

persecuted is now committing the atrocities to you for the for you don't realize that guys that is not a war, but a genocide because it's not a war between soldiers. it's a war between a highly prepared army against women and children. what's happening in gaza with the posting and people. does it exist in any other time in history? in fact, only happen when people are decided to keep the use for contact. so a personal non grata is what literally the silver was called by israel, and that's what the foreign minister said. and the foreign minister talked about the october 7th attacks and how israel was defending itself from terrorist. and basically said lula was not allowed into the country until he apologize. now, for that remark, priscilla has responded, saying that this is in fact israel, who is being divisive and is isolating, and is the person on growth. and let's have a listen to what the presidential advisor said. this is absurd, it will only increase the isolation of israel. lula da silva is admired all over

the world. and right now israel is persona non grata. it's not surprising as well that these really prime minister was also largely outraged and appalled the president of brazil, by comparing israel's war in gaza against thomas a genocidal terraced organization to the holocaust president. sue, by his displays the memory of 6000000 jews murdered by the nazis and his demonize, the jew estates, like the most virulent anti semite, you should be ashamed of himself. apart from the prime minister, the holocaust museum, sherman strongly condemned lulu the sold as words and said that they are outrageous and hateful towards the people of israel and false because israel is a sovereign nation defending itself from quote, terrorist theory as was phones from is well which was predictable, but is it justifiable to compare what we're seeing and gone as of right now to the persecution of the jewish people? the latest figure from the palestinian health ministry does show that there has

it's been a mass amount of dest. you have at least 20029000 people who have been killed. at least 69000 people have been injured. this doesn't account mickey for the people that are lost on accounted for and stuck under the rubble. and so that is becoming more clear that this is about getting the palestinians out and forcing them out of this area instead of actually attacking come off. and what, what we saw during that is that to palestinians, this reminds them of the not fun. and they're hardly the only ones that are reminded of that event. one, if i see victory, i see older infrastructure be any late. i see that they don't have one house not destroyed. i see hundreds of thousands fling like nag back working towards big zion . when we mentioned the whole course, everybody remembers it as one of the greatest tragedies in human history. and that was a kind of movie di renee that is well should now stand accused of committing atrocities on a par with that. well, you said it yourself,

it's an ironic thing in spite of what happened to is real. it's part of what happened to jewish people. this is not an excuse to now have carte blanche to act. however, they are acting in the situation and gaza is a start humanitarian crisis that we haven't seen in a very long time. and it's something that has to be resolved in survey laughter. i've actually outlined this feeling. let's have a listen. israelis can create the impression that because they suffer during world war 2, they can do anything today. yes, there was a hollow cost. it's a terrible crime. but there was also a genocide of all the peoples of the soviet union. they suffered no less as they were exterminated in various concentration camps in leningrad together with the jews. according to this logic, then everything should be possible and allowed for us now as well. this in principle is probably systemic and not good if we want to preserve international law. also according to the un and other international human rights organizations, we're seeing that what israel is doing is not justified in terms of what they say

is targeting of how mos russian defense ministry says. it's got priest. that key of has used us made chemical weapons during the conflict in the ukraine with the complicity of western countries does not limit itself to the use of non lethal chemicals and actively use a scheduled chemicals. i would like to draw attention to the statement by representatives of the armed forces of ukraine about the availability of such compounds at their disposal, including equivalents of the weaponized nerve agent to boon, which is included in list one of the chemical weapons convention and was used by the fascist invaders, during the great patriotic war. now the russian defense ministry came out with quite quite detailed information on how you crane is using chemical weapons in the battlefield. the not only on the ground, but also to carry out terrorist attacks. and they've given out some examples of

that. one of the cases is the one the freshman politician ledger sol though, who was hospitalized with signs of poison in. now when his blood analysis came out, it turns out that they found the substance in his blood that he's actually included in the convention of the prohibits and of chemical weapons. now another case is the one of the head of the administration of flu, ghosts people, republic who was also dealing with severe poisoning. we've phenolic compounds now in december of last year, ukraine has also dropped on russian forces. gas grenades would see a substance. now this substance is set to cause the skin burns as well as respiratory problems and even cardiac a rest. this substance belongs to the class of riot control, chemicals as well, and the end of january, another toxic chemical was used against the russian forces. now this time, this chemical is actually found in the u. n. he's set to cause blindness, liver and kidney issues. now these cases are not limited. the, you know,

the russian officials have actually discuss that right. great lens many more cases . but here you have ukrainian armed forces using chemical weapons in the battlefield of with the help of the west. and this was a point that was further stressed by russian and nuclear and chemical defense chief means you put them up. so, according to available information, the key of regime with the assistance of western curators is developing a new tactic of conducting military operations using a special chemical built. it provides for the detonation of containers with pressik acid and ammonia during the advance of russian troops. it is assume that such tactics will significantly complicate the activities of offensive operations of the armed forces of the russian federation, and provide key of with additional time to prepare defensive lines in the zap, rosie car, call of and sunni regions. no rush did accuse the united states of not destroying his chemical weapons as both countries have previously agreed to do. so. moscow

also accused washington of essentially delivering these weapons to ukraine, which as we've mentioned earlier, they're being used in the battle field. now on its side, russia did actually destroy its chemical weapons as and has fulfilled its obligations as previously promise. russian officials also lead out list of violations and non compliance by the united states, with the requirements to double up. no, lee, full chemical weapons. now here you have it. ukraine is basically using uh, toxic substances on the ground that is with the health of the west. and specifically the united states as was stress would be information provided was telling will cost abundance. andre lucida believes that the us may have supplied some chemical weapons to claim as they thought us over the u. s. of about this weapon is clearly to give to the ukrainian army the possibility to fight

against the sun sold here. so in other ways. so if they cannot, cannot send some weapon or weapon system legally in the ukraine, do the party to come problem saying was sent on in the congress? this is the way, the, the, your black way to was a support ukrainian army against that are from phillips. the main objective is to, uh, transmit, is security and there are and has an s to the action. so this will us republicans pushing distance learning instead of donating money to ukraine. israel and sy one senator lindsey graham, he says it's hopes that he's hopes of such a move would finally help push through a massive phone. a package in congress with a bill has been stuck for months. i spoke to president trump earlier in the week about making the a to ukraine alone. this was his idea, not mine. you know,

we did lend lease to britain, were $34.00 tree and dollars in debt. your train has minerals, they have a lot of resources. israel has a strong economy, they've been hurt, badly backed over the 7th. taiwan is a pretty rich nation. why don't we do this, make a favorable loan to all 3 of these allies, let them pass back when they can, if they can, because for 30, for training, and that, that's the trop idea. lots, he contributes a call jobs so, so the republican proposal underlines the status of ukraine as an american proxy. i was suggesting, suggesting that it's, you know, taking long if make makes it was a to ukraine, is run by one as a conditional. lo, that is to be paid back to maybe ukrainian resources. natural resources is the idea that ukraine is essentially finding a foxy work for united states. ukraine has been put in the position it is in right

now, because it made no security, you least want it to use ukraine as a proxy word against you. what russia leads russians. yes. is charles idea is ok. now let me work in a fight russian to the last. your brain is when you create is have to pay for it. i think this will pursue 80 pounds more republicans use, especially if you are more favor. i'm there except for 7 policy to sign to get on board and to extend as a package to your brain or as well as high want to rule 20 the or finally, almost 70 percent of americans. one soul to take place to end the war and ukraine us, according to the highest quincy institute, pulled us on a bike. so is the host of well as the pots sold with world renowned economist jeffrey sachs. he says that americans with the outside of washington using tax paid money to fund fund was that lead to mounting debt. the interesting thing is the public is setup. so the american people don't want our government just spending the

money on these wars which are bit trillions of dollars. but they see that the budget deficit is huge. the data keeps rising, they keep being told we can't have health care or dental care, or i care or your children can't get help for school because the budget is in crisis and then biding comes along and says, no, no, no, no, there's 61000000000 here and 14000000000 for is real and this much for this. so the public's against it, yet it still passes the 7th and it passes the 7th despite the public opposition, because the senators, by and large are agents of the military industrial complex i and they do, it's bidding, the american people do not think this is a good investment as they are as, as an economic advisor to them. but of course self appointed. i will say to them

it's not a good.
