3:01 pm
that have already crossed into lab and on and to find the gravity healthy unfolding conflict, the welcome to our team, to national, reaching you from the russian capital. i a, michael pointed out a breaking news now the russian troops of gain control all the stronghold of atlanta, a t logistics point in the dumbass. and that's according to the russian defense ministry. along with glad that troops have also tapped to fortifications with new train in forces, spend almost 10 years building. with more details here is r, t z goes down of it is very important that even when you look at the symbolism and at the symbolic, important send of the symbolic weight of a rush of finally liberating the town of hopeless. basically, this day marks an end to ukrainian attempts to stay in control of that town and the
3:02 pm
fighting has been going on for good for over 2 and a half years. now there's several factors at play here. we should both at 1st played in ukraine's favor and then the to basically just to the collapse of their own defense. so here's the thing to understand about over the while it is a small place. it is a town that is pretty much it because it's pretty much over soviet era, apartment block, residential closes and buildings. it is very compact and at the same time it is situated on the dominating the heights in that area and is at the same time again, is surrounded by open fields with scars, free lines which may the very approach to this town. so the russian forces incredibly, incredibly difficult. there's very little places where you can take cover. also at the same time, i'm from booklet you can see via pro, you can see pretty much everything that is going on too long because in tens of
3:03 pm
columbus is all around this was what allowed the ukrainians to stay in control of that place for so long but basically what i'm saying this, and now the especially now the rush, he's in control of that town. and now that russia can see everything that is going on around it. of course, the russian commodities will try to capitalize on that. so it is one tactics wise when it comes to tactical success, it is quite important for russia, but that might be not the impression you get if you listen to western and ukrainian sources, it seem is they are acting in accordance to the old playbook that they would kick into the 5th. yeah, the rest week would kick into the forgive. and basically they would say that's no good. in fact, was not that important. that they wouldn't give russia much advantage when it comes to the battle field. and when it comes to the fighting, we have seen that sort of rhetoric repeated time and time again. when you can be
3:04 pm
ukrainians, had to had to flee from back, move now to 12 months when they had to flee from money and go from solar. and to basically a whole range of other over other towns and cities and villages, which they will just throw everything that they have. i mean, talking about the ukrainian forces to keep, to basically stay there to keep these talents under the control. but the moment that they realize that they simply can no longer hold on to all these places. no good. uh they would just say, oh, it wasn't important. in fact, this is something that might be coming out of washington because this sort of line of these talking points have been repeated by the most high profile, washington officials have listed we don't know how it's going to go, so i'm not going to predict failure or success here, but even if the both back moved in. so with our fall to the russians, it's not going to make a, it's not going to have
3:05 pm
a strategic impact on the war itself. and it certainly isn't gonna stop ukrainians or, or slow them down in terms of their, their efforts to regain their territory. now the russian official confirmation of liberating the town of it comes a few days off to videos. begin to emerge online coming from russian brigades and coming from russian drogo practice showing russian soldiers putting flags on top of the buildings. and basically all across that town, which was already interpreted by russian military experts and international military expos that the town fell. and that the town was in control of the russian . i'm pauses. but now that the, the russian ministry of defense has confirmed it. it is safe to say that the clean up operation of the town is done that the old would, that nobody is hiding in the basements on that. well, basically the town is under the russian control. been while in germany,
3:06 pm
it's thousands of people have taken to the streets of the capital, demanding urgent peace towards the end. the major conflicts including the war and ukraine. the, the, some of the demonstrators held the post as a, about a historic friendship between russia and germany. all those demanded immediate peace, folks, for gas and 11 on them, cold for the country to quit nato. the event was held on the anniversary of german reunification addressed by the public discontent. nato's new secretary general of my boot has headed to key of on this 1st official trip to reaffirm the lions this support, he said that the aim was to make it press the clear. but need to a stands with ukraine. what are, do you contribute to rate to a mazda and has been looking at how on a couple of call that support really is when it comes to supporting your brain,
3:07 pm
rhetoric is cheap, but reality is not so cheap as european citizens now with their cost of living still being unbearable, natural gas prices just went up yet again. here in france on october 1st, by the way, just in time for winter. and now the pro ration president and prime minister having a bit of a tip with one another corporation. soldiers were supposed to go to germany to train you free and soldiers with a bunch of other nato countries, and the president decided to have them sit this one out was along with hungry. the prime minister croatia is like. so what's the big deal? it's just an exercise and our guys are just trainers what could possibly go wrong? well, it turns out that the corporation president is apparently worried that things could escalate quickly from their dries, showing afraid, is how to do air squads in germany to actually having to duck bullets on the front line. and all this for a country that isn't even in nato, as the supreme commander of the armed forces. i will not allow the participation of
3:08 pm
members of our armed forces in this kind of mission, which could potentially have harmful consequences on correlations, national interest. regardless of the fact that government earlier of its own volition assume this obligation in croatia is name knowing full well that it did not have my approval. and that by doing so they were in breach of the constitution . meanwhile, it's a great deal for the us that they can keep europe's cash flowing into buy american weapons, all because washington has brainwashed them into believing that the country. russia whose cheap energy exports enabled europe to compete with washington on the global playing field is their biggest excess digital threat us secretary of state antony blinking. meanwhile, was also just wine in foreign affairs magazine that europe needs to get off its behind and quote, shoulder more of the burden for their own defense. so you know what that means, more us weapons purchases, please. french president, a menu, and my phone is just set in berlin that the you quote could die because it isn't
3:09 pm
competitive with either the us or china. and whose fault might that be? big mystery, right? the new french prime minister be shut down the attack, the crowd who was use um, brags that negotiator has one thing on his mind right now, and that's us scaredy, which means jacking up taxes and cutting spending. we just need to have some new code. the situation of our accounts today requires a targeted effort, limited in time, a shared effort with the demand for tax justice. the sharing of the effort will lead us to ask large and very large companies that make significant profits to participate in the collective recovery. so this requirement will also lead us to ask for an exceptional contribution from the wealthiest french people. and finally, this time we will resolutely fight against tax fraud and social fraud. well, no spending cuts for you for a no. of course, bethany said in the same announcement that this government would stay on the side of the freight and people because it's all about protecting their shared values. like going broke,
3:10 pm
apparently out on the streets of paris. school is back in session for the protesters who are demanding higher salaries to pay for all these costs of living increases from europe supreme policies. and not only is there a fear that french pensions are also under threats, but people would kinda like to retire as early as they were promised by the government when they 1st started working. please. yeah, good luck with that. maybe you might want to try retiring to ukraine, looks like nothing's being cut over there. the good news for my call though is that he's still at 22 percent support, which is still quite a bit higher than 0. now the huge western support for ukraine has so far failed to count the russian forces kia has been pressing its allies for f. 16 fighter jets more than a year now. but the retired data come on that doesn't believe even if they are delivered, that will make much difference and reverse ukraine's fortunes. obviously,
3:11 pm
f 16 is uh, one other busted, got a full full bind. 5 condition is 4 to make a difference because otherwise the bottom of the okay. and wasn't very bottom for all what was the uh model which has been given to you? can any the older motor on it, we're not able to back the bus to it. god, which of us? yeah. they have asked you 57 also. they have big talk. the one on 2. they have a she would put the if i s on so the job a 5th generation is dog. so the blind today is the f. 16. be labeled to match on, on the problem p. tags. it does abundance have not been given a fort benning. there had been given dinning and which has been shorter and therefore they may not be well being and also outside of a differential. but yeah, it's been son, that'd be file thought to be a been done though, or as for under then those for you. 100 being rude has once again
3:12 pm
faced the fresh round of use ready air strikes with at least 6 large explosions. heard in the lab and these capital the huge colors of smoke rose above best that the, that the idea of clean the heads hospitalized intelligence headquarters at the communications center. now the number of casualties is still on. know are the is yes, the that can is in the city and sense this report. the current attacks, however, we understand one of them were targeted da here. here's below stronghold. another was actually in japan and then just as unprecedented in one way or the other. this would march at least the 3rd time that israel has carried out a strike outside the headquarters outside of has the headquarters. and we understand that they targeted shopping in the north. this is a shy village, which is also predominantly populated by christian citizens,
3:13 pm
christian ebony citizens within those parts of the country. those areas have been deemed to be safe away from the conflict away from the politics. but it seems that the is really, rates have been finding its way and entering its way closer to civilian and residential areas. but what we do now is that the nature of these attacks are also shifting. we spoke to one of the residents, of course, about the nature of the attacks and he provided us further information as to how things on folded. but more importantly, the rest of those folks who lives 14 above the residential building, the, the floor that was targeted by this red stripe. and he said that he had to evacuate the building with about 20 others in his family. while he was sitting down to rod at 1 o'clock we were sitting on the veranda. there were children, women, and men there. and the rock, it appeared. when the rockets flew inside and exploded, the walls collapsed either onto the street or onto the stairs. there was no entrance to the buildings, all the walls collapsed was block the stairs. we started throwing stones down and
3:14 pm
made a route for all the residence of the building to go down the stairs. we cleared them so that people could get out. he is really rates targeted as well as meeting this feeling of itself as a matter of concern because of the journalists. much like myself, have to visit that, said media office to essentially get the accreditation or permission required to operate in areas throughout the country. this is an essential part of our job, and we understand that the is really rates targeted that building and the general popular opinion is that the attack came at the time when his beloved decided to open the doors of law. he had to allow journalists into the hezbollah stronghold. it's an area that is under constant surveillance. we understand that not all of da here was open to journalist. there was a small part, it was just one side of many attacks over the course of the past week. or 2, and we understand that the attack on his what was made the office was most likely a result or a response to his beloved opening,
3:15 pm
a source to about hundreds of journalists that are friends following this story. and we understand that israel has a track record of attacking journalist indiscriminately over the course of the past year. ever since the early days of october 2023, many journalists lost their lives as a result of these attacks. and the attacks are escalating, the scope of the attacks are also growing. we understand that the nature of the attacks are also worrying and concerning, not just for people within da here, but all across the country. and as we follow the story, it will become that much more important because the reality is people fleeing this conflict have very little options. just take refuge, where i know where i say. now the idea of has confirmed, at least 9 of its troops were killed in an ambush by has the forces in solving lebanon. and that's as ease ready troops trying to push northwood. now, on the very day, the idea for now is it's ground operation. i'm at least bureau chief was in the
3:16 pm
northern these role and sense of this report. a full days off to the official announcement of the idea of limited ground operation in 11 on there was still little information on the armies advances tactics or movements troops continuing to target his bowl as combat infrastructure. that's about all we know for now. we put on our protective gear with a threat of attack still high and had toward these really their bodies boulder closer to the front line. you might expect them to rose due to the situation, but instead we're stuck in a heavy traffic. and this is when the siren went off, we follow the instructions. always rows home from command. the 1st time desire was not very loud, which means that it is not exactly in our area, but still people decided to stop and get out of the cars and wait for some time.
3:17 pm
this is what we doing to ok to police car has now started moving. so we continue driving, passing signs for cities and towns. the names feel familiar. we've been seeing them constantly on the rocket to look at each one marking another place, targeted or hate by me. solves, these are all the rocket attacks and the last 28 minutes. and this recent one was in the area where we are driving right now. we are, some were here just past car man. and this is where we heard the siren says israel's air bombardment of 11 on began 11 days ago. his bullet has launched hundreds of broadcasts and over 9000 since the conflicts started last october. the further north we go, the fewer cars we see,
3:18 pm
most of the vehicles we pass on military or some carrying soldier is likely on route to the front. the mc ones are probably returning for reinforcement. parts of the north have been declared and military zone. we passed through a new check point that wasn't here just days ago. back when the ground operation was still just the room or to the actual no one's home to 20. $5000.00 people is now it goes town with only soldiers inside mrs is really artillery. diversity, they are stationed somewhere around cadet tomorrow. we had to the highest point to get a better view. the sound of a to refile grows more frequent targeting areas and 11 on which is just nearby. we reached kitty out small, one of the biggest is really c t at the northern boulder from this hill top in the middle of the town. a kind of ironic view opens up 11 on surround us on 3 sides,
3:19 pm
including behind me with a more or less than 5 kilometers away. the air is heavy with tension as they unmistakable sound of is really a to react case in the distance firing off every 5 to 10 minutes. and each time during blas signals support for id f troops that have already crossed into lab and on and to find the gravity hall, the unfolding conflict. next to carry out some on the right that the buddha, since the tiny, picturesque door supplement ultimate toola. now another no man's land, it's destroyed and burns houses are a stark reminder of the federal security that is sold off now due to the ground operation. we were, i'm the last journalist visited before the closure. the only person we met there was the mayor who not only supports his really troops on the ground and lab and on, but sees no other way to ensure the safe return of these really residents. it myself, could they law city, if you,
3:20 pm
in order to eliminate the threat of anti tank missiles as and of what they have under ground. we need to enter at least the 1st 10 kilometers to destroy the danger physically. we are in favor of the operation and we understand the war means we will bear losses. but to save the state of israel and bring back the deterrence, we don't have a choice. then we live in the middle east. don't forget and they don't respect any agreements in 20 or 6. we signed un resolution, 17 o one, and they didn't keep it. so we can't stop this as an opportunity, then we can't lose a lot. so at the time when the u. s. b, u and 10 other countries offered an immediate cease fire plan 2 is tensions between israel and his fella. adf tanks were already deployed at the lebanese border. we filmed them back then. several days ago we were here and we sold dozens of these really tags on this field. we are not allowed to disclose the exact location
3:21 pm
because a my thing danger the troops. but i can say that we're several kilometers away from the lab and he's old. it was before the official announcement of these really ground operations. since then, the significant part of the tank was into lab and on the incursion as now we do not see more than 10 percent but you run the president said his nation has show me now for restraint, but he's real, the actions in god and lebanon to push these, i make a public to respond. i met him on a model and we have waited for peace. but these cowards instead of ending the killings of people becoming even more brazen in gaza and loving on. no criminal in history has committed crimes like theirs. and we have been forced to respond if they want to act, otherwise we will respond to more forcefully. the security of the region is the security of all moslems. and we do not seek war and bloodshed since i was elected
3:22 pm
president. i have been careful in all my speech is to say that we seek peace. we seek call, no country or region kind of chief development by war. we do not want for israel, but it's forcing us to response. while we're on the president position for y'all's trip to go, how came on the hill? so if it was missiles tri county as well. so the visit is really important, especially since guitar is known for it's often intermediary roles and brokering talks among different parties, particularly the ongoing negotiations for a cease fire in gaza, which as i'm also what else, it was sought after goals actually uh, the main reason why it won't have held off on its response, please wells actions after the death of his mind. honey. yeah. was that it had to hold for a ceasefire in garza so uh wow. and guitar position concepts, uh, strategic patience and self restraint approved to be wrong. who by him on he criticized his well over the killing of the leader from us on july 31st. which
3:23 pm
leads is means that on his way, i'll and as well as neither claim nor denied responsibility, opposite accounts that it was adopted or what he called strategic jobs. so for spring since then, but then as well became quoting more brazen, assassinating the leader of his blah 11 on a natural and expanding guy this cole's target separations in lebanon. i don't get press conference. the guitar in me are reiterated. his countries came as an a to a mediating flood between as well and how mas withdraw, it's been ongoing for almost a year. now this as this part, international efforts, including guitars, mediation, progress towards the ceasefire in gaza, has been pretty sluggish. but definitely the recent escalation in the past days and 11 on is what we warned about since the beginning of the israeli aggression. and it is increasing. and the state of guitar has worked intensively to reach a ceasefire and contain the conflict. but developments are accelerating. de
3:24 pm
escalation means that the occupation army stops it's on just war on our brothers and gaza and the west bank. and it's aggression on 11 on. of course, during case to dave is a to do hop is a scale and also met with salty for administer face of been for our hardware, the this cost as well as actions in gaza and loving on, even though we off has mostly just been vocal and criticizing the ongoing tensions, i've been for hard phrased what he described as it was, was them. and as for teacher vision and managing regional issues and promoting peace and stability, of course. so this might be the 1st time. so the revenue has openly appraised iran for its actions in the region, and that's exactly what position kion was hoping for during his trip. he said that is what's the emissions unite against as well then tell of eve will not be able to continue its actions against muslims in gaza. so let's see what comes out of this was a, but for now though, as well, has them stepped up its actions in lebanon,
3:25 pm
and continues to strengthen, strikes on the earphones sensitive facilities. meanwhile, everyone has warned that such actions could trigger a 2nd phase of missile attacks. this time targeting does as of already identified major sites. and as well as the middle east is drunk, deep into chaos of africa's economic freedom fighter party has described the rodney and missile attack on the israel as a necessary defense. they can make it freedom fighters, family condemns israel is own guardian, expansion of violence and legal occupation in the middle east, around dismissal response to is arouse aggression against elaborate on syria and the assassination of hezbollah. alida has and his role is a just a necessary defense. the e f. f stands in support of palestine have ron level in syria and a nation's resisting is really aggression. the world must no longer turn a blind eye. so let's cross live to set off again. member of parliament from the
3:26 pm

3:27 pm
we don't fight as we uh, in a box is lennon is organization we have we, we subscribe to book this if international is and we're always on the side of the oppressed people to the way and we to get up and see the selves as part of that week because it does have as palestinians because he does have is us. we stand with the people to do the difficult time because they stood with us a gaze. the lacy, it's fuss is about a date. the team is not the free god. when the advocate people in this country with flu shot to a key to daily basis. and that continues the case in palestine where palestinians are being met that daily by benjamin, you have to know and, and, and he's a black fist, the military personnel. all right now is role and the american officials claimed
3:28 pm
that the attack was ineffective. asp, it was basically only infrastructure with damage inflicted and only to military facilities. so one would ask, what's ease, roles, criteria for effective strikes? then what do you interpret of this? one is what i can keep as many as it we should have killed hundreds and thousands of innocent palestinians, especially women and children. and it has no escalate. it's total offense against the the entirety of the up nation in the bundle in the, in the lock. and and, and in leap and everywhere else. and they will cheat as much as they can. but they will never finish us, their guns and up who lives at some point would come to an end. and they're under

3:30 pm
know for the levels of time as you know, as a war could mean it's been known as a whole movie, so he's not interested in any piece for the diploma to seize fire does. that's the reason why he is not a, by the, to the international court that is condemned. eh, he's actions which amounts to join us. i gazed upon a scene and people so well dealing here we've a cycle pop. we're dealing yeah, we've been met me was compared to start the federal tool. and unfortunately for the is that i need people who we love so much. what's going on as they stand on the side of, you know, they are completely in the genocide. i gave the father as being in people and he's to remember that.
