a former us intelligence officer and our take contributors got rid or 2 months after his passport was seized before he was supposed to fly to russia the live in moscow. you're watching our t international. i'm rachel ruble, claimed russian laura corresponding if danny pub. disney is in critical condition with doctors battling to save his life. he was injured well covering the unfolding events in per square. russian forces had halted cabs a troop advanced artesia. it goes down off, brings us the details. well, not much is known right now. we do know that he's alive and well not really well. he's in seeing the serious condition. he has been taken to a hospital here in the city. of course he was filming in the region the wherever, most of the fighting is happening, just outside the small town of soldier, ukrainian armed forces. i've been trying to capture that village for quite some

time since we've read, you know, and really made a push for that town. can you put me? he was injured to see. it isn't a serious condition. this is a report that he posted on his personal telegram channel right before he was wounded. while moving from point to point, let's quickly cover the latest figures on enemy losses in the course region. over 50 units of armored vehicles were destroyed within a day. more than 250 militants of the key of regime were killed, which means the number of wounded could be multiplied by 3 or 4. the enemy is suffering serious losses. despite their unrealized plans, the situation remains tense and the fighting continues. as far as he says, i do need was in curse, to cover events unfolding after cubes attack. what can you tell us about the situation from your position? they're on the ground?

absolutely. basically the fighting has been very, very intense. close to the russian ukraine border here. in the course region rushes president vladimir, set down together with the incumbent, and the foreman ministers of defense today. also president at the meeting, had of russia's federal security service. and russia's general chief of staff of need to get some of was present via a video link and he into and shed some details as to what has been going on. and the house, he's views the situation. but it's just the mothers at 5 30 am on august 6th, ukrainian armed forces units numbering up to $1000.00 soldiers, launched an offensive aimed at capturing a section of the suits a district in the course region, actions by border security units in conjunction with border guards and reinforcement units along with air strikes, missile forces and artillery fire halted the enemy's advance into the course of

direction. currently, units from the north groups together with f s b border agencies continue to eliminate the enemy forces in areas directly adjacent to the russian ukrainian border. the operation will conclude with the defeat of the enemy and the restoration of control up to the state of order that you qualify to get. some of you also reveals that the ukrainian force is up to that point up to the point of his report to russia's commander in chief, lost more than $300.00 men. and at least a 100 of them have been killed in action. also they lost more than 50 pieces of military equipment. rather i should say military vehicles at least 7 tanks, given that the fighting has been going on. since the end of those numbers, a very much likely to have increased and quite significantly rushing jets have been flying above us all day. in fact, one of them flew just seconds before this live hit. also there shortly before that

meeting with the security chief supplied him approved and addressed the government . and he, for the 1st time, publicly talks about the situation here in the court. a scrooge and escape. the key of regime has launched another large scale provocation indiscriminately firing various types of width. it doesn't exceed the including rocket, and i got the civilian buildings and then your residential, home, them, and ambulances. following my conversation with the acting governor of the course region, i show a solution instructions have been given to several civilian departments to provide necessary assess when you send him to the residents of the area. well, the ukranian on forces have been targeting guys, civilians and civilian targets, civilians and civilian infrastructure throughout their campaign. here in the course region, in the past 48 hours, they have been selling a monastery that is close to the border, which eventually was destroyed by their selling by their shillings. and the one person died that also on the tuesday night they attacked the kamikaze drone,

an ambulance killing, of these 2 people in general. the civilian deb too, has been mounting as people have been trying to evacuate has been trying to get to save. see now the authorities, the local authorities have been trying to facilitate so that's a temporary evacuation. but it is very difficult because again, ukrainian now tells me they have within the reach many, many roads of the many, some, several kilometers of the roads. even dozens of kilometers, i have to say they also have essentially a whole villages at gunpoint. and so whatever the recreation efforts could be taking a big bus full of people, even though there are civilians, is very likely to become a targets of a ukrainian kindly cause of drone or an tennessee piece or just more to find the so again, it has been very difficult, but people here they have come together to

a local chat groups uh, full of suggestions and office as people have been offering the apartments offering a spare rooms in their apartments, in their houses, basically offering shelter to everyone who found themselves displaced by the fighting at the same time throughout today, people gathered on the central square on the red square, of course, cuz they donated blood even though even though they didn't have to. i talked to one of the medics in charge of that particular blood donation mobile blood donation points. and she told me that there was no shortage of blood enclosed as of this morning. and as of evening this evening. but people, they just wanted to feel that they are doing something that they're not just staying either, that they are helping, whichever, whichever way they can. so they make this decision to, to install that mobile a blood donation, blood collection point, and more than 300 people donated that blood today. again,

very fluid situation is there is no indication that the fighting will die down by tomorrow morning. if anything it is likely to incentivize, because it is likely to intensify, i have to say as both sides of bringing in more and more reserves, and they're deploying reinforcements. so we will be standing by to cover these developments. the local authorities have declared a state of emergency in the cursed region to deal with consequences from cabs and border incursion. as the rest, the military pushes back against the print in troops, residents are left to grapple with their losses in one particularly tragic story, a ukrainian soldier shots, and killed a pregnant woman from the village of carrillo, caustics with her husband told archie what happened that maurice uh, we were driving into cars when a ukrainian soldier shot at us from the roadside. i saw him. we were in 2 cars, me in the 1st car,

and my wife about 100 meters behind. we were leaving the village of cor laska on the main road, just 400 meters short of our destination. i heard gunshots and thought it was our soldiers taking out drones, but it turned out to be fire directed at me. i saw everything he had a helmet with blue duct tape. i managed to drive through, but my wife didn't about. she was hit and lost control of the car. her mother, my mother in law, grab the wheel. i stopped and she crashed in to me. when i opened the door, nina was already gasping. the cars were stuck together. miraculously, we managed to separate the cars and go to the hospital. they tried to revive her, but it was too late. the bullet went through her long and exit it through her heart . my child is small, just 21 months old, and my wife was 2 months pregnant with our 2nd, if that ukrainian soldier had chased us, we probably wouldn't be talking right now. it's the russian foreign ministry spokesman says the attack is an attempt by key of forces to divert attention from its overall failure on the battlefield. keeps barbaric attack on the car

screech on him, just don't panic and create an illusion of activity means the constant failures of the ukrainian armed forces for me or us defense department contractor, and kevin mccully, the says they attack on the curse region was merely the ukrainian armies attempt to demonstrate at least some activity against russia. this is very common for our neighbors to be attacking the border regions in the northern part of russia . and it always seems to be around times where they need to extend a martial law. and which of course they did today for another 3 months, the united states in western europe is constantly wanting these types of attacks to show that ukraine is making advances against russia. and therefore it is worth while to continue supporting and not. but you

know, they're, they're striking churches and apartment buildings and showing civilians which is, you know, really the disgusting thing about it. the timing is really to show even his own government and his own people that they're doing something. and like, i say, the ukrainian media is making a big deal out of this being a success. so it then gets as a lensky, another 90 day as an office of president, as we know, he, you know, technically isn't the president any more. but as long as he can keep the, uh, the marshal lot going, he remains in office, which is what the west wants. the current in military intelligence spokesperson who 1st confirmed that key of help to separate a scripts. and molly is now retracting his statement in the shuffle. spice is the

fact that the rebels received the necessary information that allowed them to conduct a successful operation against the wash and war criminals. the whole world has already seen this in principle. this can be commended on we certainly will not disclose in details, but let's say there will be a continuation use. i've told the financial times this week that he had made no such statement about ukraine's intelligence directory being involved in the attack . much so all the details of this back to the main stock as it is often the case and such so conflicts that the full truth off watching really to supply to me, never come to life off that he's denial, but you praise involvement in this whole thing raises questions now about a support, a strategic interest in africa and the link which it might go to, to counteract some influence on the african continent. it could be back to the intelligence agencies. so susan has been vermont in cuba,

that he has now denied to making the statements because even ukraine's foreign affairs, a has expressed regret over the decision made by modest government saying that it was done without a sour, steady on speaking to it as fast as circumstances it is said that it's an additional government of the republic of molly has decided to sell a diplomatic relations with ukraine without conducting a thorough study of the facts and circumstances of the incident in northern molly. as well as without providing any evidence, a few grains involvement in the specified event. now your praise assistant has been sock waves through the african continent, in fact, several nations on the continents already struggling with assistance and terrorism . so in response to the case is monte add new z. i have as of yet diplomatic ties and relations with ukraine or to get on the c d. i show, considering the seriousness of the situation on the recognize and assuming

a whole bunch of ukraine in the russian against molly, this is the government of the republic of new jack in full sort of them and see where the government and people have money decides on the following measures, one was the severance with immediate effect of diplomatic relations between the republican javin ukraine, up to the referral to the united nations security council. with a view to rooting on the crating aggression unexplained sassik, 2000. and because the following, ukraine's acknowledged and accepted involvement and the aggression against molly, the transitional government of the republic of molly, as decided to set up with immediate effect. and the diplomatic relations between the republic of molly and ukraine, whose destiny is unfortunately entrusted to puppets, to confuse the international stage with the stage discipline, and to take the necessary measures to prevent any de stabilization of molly from african states, in particular from ukrainian embassies in the sub region with terrorists disguised as diplomats conflict tennis situation that started in late july when the martin

army add to the back and the battle to our examples. and possibly the hardest to, to resolve attending the move of my d. the back to resulted in does that is off casualties, especially for vac. not as the missing movies themselves, as also i'm acknowledged the to our claims that we have killed a to full vacuum of soldiers and full to save and money and forces was also concerning. and this whole match as the sign is from the international community. it is quite loud, especially considering the body as easy, have called on the international community to condemn ukraine. also, knowing that the waste provides you, created with resources, including intelligence, to support it if it's a to strike russia. the width is probably going to take a bit of time responding to this meta especially considering also the fact that that has been chased off the reach. and so how region themselves with the region alternative to roster for support is crossed. now to add

a new garber the 2nd to nigeria in 2023 presidential candidates out. i'm a good to have you on the program with us. i'd like to hear your reaction to the ukrainian military intelligence spokesperson, 1st confirming cabins, helping militants in molly. but then turning around and retracting that statement, you know, just not there are 20 beings in. see, jim, i'll clear initially to mention that how are you going to be an international octo shown to the point where i want also to kind of lead to the we do this. i have begun to technologies for the president, george holmes, within this i how i sort of this you went through just 1st time frames, trying to tell them that you do something different. it's like 20 complete life on what your brain is trying to do in this. i him is really 10 generals to the people of this a hell on know to do for healy and nations. i'm making up these all these situations

. what, sorry, anesha did what the right thing to do to quickly on. and it went to the to fix it down. what's up, dude, diplomatic relationship with ukraine? because what is clearly a company that they have low in the war in the front line in the ukraine, i guess most trustworthy are trying to ship it to a proxy operations defido sort of been coming up to used to be on wisdom bosses to continue to sleep in the media support that they used to sustain themselves from. this is really very dental. if i, i can tell you what you mean. i also got in that julia, my home warranty is on hold waiting for the doctors to this box. and the last 7 days after the whole helped me to do it, be part of the change. okay, where do you have my member of the flow you endorse on floods or what the rent investigation was conducted? russia, clearly we're talking about the nat geo,

denied in boardman to push on on with our as was mentioned in the area where he lives, especially in the dental kind of it will just come on the steps says what to do. so please show me our deploy should use the, the toners, uh, the citizens. well how, what can you imagine the extra and program decided to use for some floods? this is done. so like a printer imagine, right? and would have to click and want to promote the relationship between one shot and did you already know how to pull on? so could you create a new trunk line? this is very the denied us to jump through the fundamental steps i was just wanting to know what to do to 6 corners to do the worst storm projecting government directly to the dungeon of gym. the people our parent, the okay. i believe we lost our connection with adam who dar by who was responding to

to our questions there. let's see if we can get we connected with him and perhaps come back to him shortly. the, all right, well the f, b i and police have rated the new york home of former former us marine corps intelligence officer and r t contributors. scott ritter. r corresponded donald porter. has the details. well, the f. b, i is officially admitted to searching the homeless scott ritter. but so far it's refused to give a concrete reason as to why, aside from it being part of some sort of official investigation. but according to our sources, scott ritter himself has not been detained. he hasn't been arrested, but this is far from the 1st time that he's faced harassment from the us authorities. i mean, back in june, the state department seized his passport and took him off a plane. he was bored into russia to attend the st. petersburg, international economic for him. now i personally was able to attend to that for him

. i spoke with a number of americans there who were genuinely scared after this happened. they said that taking away the renter's passport, set a bad precedent for people who were doing absolutely nothing wrong, but just wanted to travel to a country that washington for some reason they had a problem with on top of that, the threat of assassination has been hanging over scott rivers had for the longest time since he is on the ukrainian kill list called me at florida. it's after all, he's a regular contributor here in our tea, an active voice in the alternative media. and thanks to his previous experience in the us military and a un weapons inspector, he has a lot of military knowledge as well. so all of us taking together is likely the reason why the us government seems so out to get rid of her. but in terms of this recent rate on his house, we have very little information at this point. but of course we're going to bring our viewers all of the detail. all right, let's cross live now to our, to contributor tar read tara, what do you make of this rate?

it comes just a couple of months after scott ritter, his passport was confiscated as he was trying to bore to flight to russia. yeah it's, it's really interesting, rachel, i'm sorry, he and i were both in the same speakers for him at the st. petersburg economic form . so he was barely missed. his contribution would have been really great to have, but unfortunately the federal agents took him off the plane and confiscated his passport. i talked with him personally after that they've never returned his passport. usually that indicates that there is that someone is under investigation because they take away your passport. they did that with you who were 3. that's the black socialist group that is now facing in that is faced indictment is now facing sentencing for up to 10 years in prison, then force. so we just chord because they spoke out against the conflict and ukraine, spoke out against the us involvement and nato involvement. um, you know,

trying to have a word with russia via ukraine and so for that they were harassed by the federal agents and read it as well. so you see a pattern here that's happening to the left to the right of the political spectrum in the united states. and i myself, have been harassed to the point where my lawyer filed a federal lawsuit, which is now working through the courts against the f. b i n d o generate for, for the legal surveillance. they have been going after scott ritter for years absolute years. it is not clear if he is in the, um, you know, custody at this time. but as our colleague mentioned, he may or may not be, we don't have confirmation of that yet. but obviously they're investigating something personally, rachel, i think we're looking at the, you know, with the harris ticket now coming other, going back. the democrats are going back to the old, you know, rush to gauge that hysteria again. all right, you said the authorities have been going after scott ritter for years. he's

a former un weapons inspector, and i know he has a large following on social media, and he's very outspoken. he speaks to russian media quite a bed doesn't necessarily follow along with the approved narrative in the us. what is it about him that use the tardies fine, so threatening the hi you. if you look back in history, it is quite remarkable. you can, you can actually still look it up on different social media. but he spoke out against the war in iraq and revealed that the government lied. the us government lied about the weapons of mass destruction he, he spoke out. george galloway famously spoke out and he was the whistleblower. he has been a whistle blower and then you know, he was put in prison for charges that he was, you know, convicted of and he did his time. he's served his sentence. so i don't think it's related to that sentencing at all. i think again, it's just a pattern of what you're seeing in the united states,

which is the surveillance state and authoritative government that you know, we have the illusion of free speech. we have that illusion of a right to travel. but in reality, it's only allowed if we say what the, you know, united states wants people to say, otherwise you're at risk and, and those of us that speak out against, you know, uh the, unless wars that the biden regime and other obama resumes and others have put forth, become targeted by the federal agents. you know, many say that are unfortunately, the intelligence couple has, has really taken over the united states government. and i think you've seen that pretty clearly just in the recent events around the 2024 election. all right, we're gonna leave it there. are to contribute our tar rate. tar. thank you. well, after us personnel were injured in the rocket attack on our side air based on

a rock on tuesday, the pick up kindergarten. she has announced the deployment of a war ship naval cruisers and destroyers just supposedly lower the temperature in the middle east to make no mistakes. united stage 4 must tolerate attacks on our personnel in the region to maintain our carrier strike group presence in the middle east. i've ordered ordered the u. s. s. abraham lincoln to replace the u. s. s. theodore roosevelt. later this month and his foster adjustments, add to our already broad range of capabilities in the region. and we remain ready to deploy on short notice to meet evolving threats to our security. our partners or our interests. united states remains intensely focused on the escalating tensions in the region. while the us has over 45000 personnel survey on numerous military bases throughout the middle east with the majority located near

a ron american troops and syria are considered to be there illegally. and despite long standing demands from damascus and baghdad for washington was to withdraw the troops remained. washington has also been providing israel with heavy military and financial support during the gaza complex that has allocated over a $1000000000.00 drawing condemnation from many nations in the region. and on his recent visit to request more funds is running time minister benjamin netanyahu got a warm reception and standing ovation in the us. congress was cross live now to ali i a journalist and international relations consult and totally good to have you on with us. i'm just curious how exactly, well, bringing more military equipment and personnel to the region contribute to lowering tensions in the middle east. you know what? thank a solution invitation. i went off to the back to back us as a nation, all the a commando of humble and the explanation of how much the,

the media and how on international and diplomatic and uh, the william started strongly, uh to head off as to scale will off to many patients and many swipe to it that gauge from it one and so on. the allies of the one. i mean, now the united states is feeling and mentally in all the extra met, like will and the land c a and a, as the one the united states face to face. since the eighty's, when you're not the say, last 255 soldier 111-8000, the soldiers and so to access it, why could and more than 6200 soldiers and contractors in of those done and 19 soldiers in the bottom of a whole bar and positive hundreds in the field and goes into way and other

companies know they need to say this, trying to not be do i do they me, they used to because i think when effect is f of the, the post in, at the indian and ok, and best face and united states, so it wouldn't be as so patients about venue situation. but united states would like to avoid this tension, but at the same time would when try to avoid any strategic failure. so each was now during the deployment of eh, maybe cruisers and other navy destroyers. to just shut down the fire stick. listen and i strongly listen and the door that's expected to dollars from yemen. the one and has will not do is with a leave of many regional countries. for example,

a rock in syria have demanded that us troops leave their countries. washington has a legally positioned itself in syria. why won't the us listen and leave no photo can just repeat the question. yeah, yeah, i'm wondering why the us is refusing to leave the region when it's a legally occupying some of these countries. for example, staying in a rock and syria. no. then i can just paste this tragic phone and walk and i got a song that costs united states more than a 5000000000 dollar. and also united states is a strategy level and on in agents. we also know it is a facing strategy trailer in the west. you asked of the fellow to uh try to destroy the hosting why they

couldn't get stuck the hosting from attacking the ship. and they were the adjuster, david hensley, and all that the attacks to american destroyer level, and because they're not to states, think that me to leave with an important a show classic area, fully international honesty and don't allow us to leave this part of the both through china and do i show and could you be the eastern best buy we'd like to step is trying to make more f for diplomatic efforts and religion and also to stay and do a book that is a live. and if it's an option to promote the industries you right, we're gonna leave it there all a i a journalist and international.
