[000:00:00;00] the breaking news this, our russian troops gain control of the stronghold of atlanta. a key logistics pointing, done by the huge printers of smoke rise over the lebanese capital as these ruddy f a strikes. so once again, a down on the pay route and ninety's, when the troops killed and a half blind us at the idea of attempts to be expanded spunk, line tools into lab and on the air is heavy with tension, as they unmistakable sound of is really up to the react case and the distance

firing off every 5 to 10 minutes each time during the last signal to pull pull idea of troops that have already crossed into lab and on and to find the gravity solve the unfolding conflict. either it's a well come on boards, 2 p i as the prominent pinion professor, an activist loan cheese phase on very show right q and a i t delving into issues the model for the entire off again. continent part is given as up for me to send out our message on the, on the same side, even if they may not agree with some of the things that i will say. and that is a good thing. the why this is our to international reaching. you from our new center with moscow? i a michael quarter. as bringing the breaking news,

our russian troops have gained control of the stronghold of atlanta, a key logistics pointing dumbass, and that's according to the russian defense ministry. along with the blood, the troops of also captured fortifications which you create in force to spend almost pen. yes. building with more details here is art easy. it goes down of it is very important that even when you look at the symbolism and at the symbolic importance, end 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 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 quotes, has and buildings. it is very compact. and at the same time, it is situated on the dominating heights in that area and is at the same time again, is surrounded by open fields with scott free lines which may the very approach to this town for 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 columbus is all around it. this was what allowed the ukrainians to stay in control of that place for so long. but basically what i'm saying this 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, their rhetoric 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 ukrainians, had to had to flee from back, move now to almost when they had to flee from money and go from solar. and they're basically a whole range of other of other towns and cities and villages, which they will just throw everything that they have. i me talking about the ukrainian forces to keep, to basically stay that to keep these towels onto 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 the of these talking points have be repeated by the most high profile, washington officials have a list. 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 backed mood and so with our fall to the russians, it's not going to make a, it's not going to have 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 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. meanwhile, in jeremy, thousands of people that have taken to the streets of a capital demanding urgent piece folksy and major conflicts, including the war and ukraine. the. some of the demonstrators held the post as about beef historic friendship,

between russia and germany. all those demanded immediate peaceful school gathered in lebanon and cold for their country to quit. some data of the event was held on the anniversary of chapman regan, if occasion but the spot, the public discontent. nato's new secretary general, the mock route has headed straight to key of on his 1st official, a trip to reaffirm the alliance is support. he said the aim was to make it's crystal clear. but nato stands with ukraine, but are to contribute to rate to a mass then has been looking at how on the approval call that support really is when it comes to supporting ukraine, 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 one up. yet again, here in france on october 1st, by the way, just in time for winter, and now the proration president and prime minister having a bit of

a tiff with one another. peroration soldiers were supposed to go to germany to train ukrainian soldiers with a bunch of other nato countries. and the president decided to have them sit this one that was along with hungry, the prime minister across a size 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 ukrainians how to do air squats 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 members of our armed forces in this kind of mission which could potentially have harmful consequences on croatia is 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. yeah,

good luck with that. maybe you might want to try retiring to you. great. 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 key of has been pressing its allies for f. $165.00 projects for more than a year now. but the retired mate, the deputy commander, has now admitted that even as they are delivered, they still wouldn't be able to match the best of the russian jets while the former ahead of the indians territorial army made a general atc watch also to off to the r t, but he doesn't believe that it would help reverse ukraine's point you. it obviously f 60 needs the best a got a full, full find 5 done edition. is both to make a difference because otherwise the bottom of the okay. and wasn't very bottom for all one the moderate which has been given to you, but any, the older border on it, we're not able to back the bus to 8 o'clock,

which of us here. they have asked you 57 also they have big talk. the one on the tools they have a she would put the if i s on so which odd a fit the edition in the top. so the blind today is the f. 16 be labeled to match on on the problem b tags. the binders have not been given a fort benning had been given the gaming of which has been shortened and therefore they may not be but the and also sort of a differential. but yeah, it's been son. that'd be file file to be a, in dumbo, or as for under then those for you 100 i'll be your mood has once again face to fresh, round of ease really strikes with at least 6 large explosions. heard in the lebanese capital, the huge scalars of smoke rose above the city and the idea of clean the heads,

hospitalized intelligence headquarters, and a communication center. now the number of casualties is still on. know not space r t z after that can is in the city and sense of 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 this is 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, question 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 folk 2 lives, one floor above the residential building, the, the floor that was targeted by this really strikes. and he said that he had to evacuate the building with about 20 others of his family. while he was sitting down to rod at 1 o'clock who were sitting on the veranda, there were children, women, and men there and a 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 blocking the stairs. we started throwing stones down and made a route for all the residents of the building to go down the stairs. we cleared them so that people could get out. he is really rates target, it has what was the offers this in and of itself is a matter of concern because of the journalists. much like myself, have to visit that. said media office to essentially get the accreditation of

permission required to operate in areas throughout the country. this is an essential part of our job. and we understand that these really rates targeted that building and the general popular opinion is that the attack came at a time when has a lot decided to open the doors of law here 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 will as media office was most likely a result or a response to his beloved opening of stores to about hundreds of journalists that our friends following this story. and we understand that israel has a track record of attacking journalists 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 to seek refuge. where nobody say all the idea of has confirmed, at least not enough. its troops, what killed in an ambush by has full of forces in southern lebanon, and that's, i think, is really troops try to push northwards on the very day. the idea of finance it's ground. depression um, at least through chief, was a northern east will and sense this report. the full days of 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 bowlers combat infrastructure. that's about all we know for now. we put on our protective gear with

a threat of attacks too high and had toward these really lebanese border, closer to the front line. you might expect them to rose due to the situation, but instead we have stuck in a heavy traffic. and this is when the siren went off, the we follow the instructions, always rows home from the 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. this is what we doing to police car is now started moving. so we continue driving, passing signs for cities and towns their names, feel familiar. we've been seeing them constantly on the rocket to look at each one

marking another place targeted all hate to find themselves. these are all the rocket attacks and the last 28 minutes. and this recent one was the area where we are driving right now. we are, some were here and just past car man. and this is where we heard the siren says israel's air bombardment of lebanon began 11 days ago. his bullet has launched hundreds of rockets and over 9000 since the conflicts started last october. the further north we go, the fewer cars we see, most of the vehicles we pass on military, some carrying soldiers likely on route to the front. the mc ones are probably returning for reinforcement. parts of the north has 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 a rumor,

kitty actual no one's home to 20. 5000 people is now it goes town with only soldiers inside this it is really a salary. the for who they are station somewhere around cadet tomorrow. we had to the highest point to get them. but if you, the sound of a to refile grows more frequent targeting areas and 11 on which is just nearby. we reached kitty edge small, one of the biggest is really c t at the northern boulder from this hill top in the middle of the town. a panoramic view opens up lebanon surrounds us on 3 sides, including behind me, with a more than less than 5 kilometers away. the air is heavy with tension as they unmistakable sound of as really 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 the actual, when i write that the buddha sits the tiny picturesque door supplement ultimate tool. 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 among the last journalist a visit, and before the closure, the only person we met there was the mayor who not only supports his really troops on the ground and lab alone, but sees no other way to ensure the safe return of these really residents. it myself could allow, suited to you in order to eliminate the threat of anti tank missiles in of what they have under ground. we need to enter at least the 1st 10 kilometers to destroy the danger physically. we're in favor of that operation and we understand the war means we will bear losses. but to save the state of israel and bring back to 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. we can't lose a lot. so at the time when the u. s. the you 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 film 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 because a my thing danger the troops. but i can say that we are several kilometers away from the lab and he's pulled. it was before the official announcement of these really ground operations. since then, the significant part of the tank was into labinata. take the incursion as now. we do not see more than 10 percent

and now we have a special treat for our view as around the well and then ridiculously, those watching us from african nations. today what bringing you a new program on our tv, from a man seen as a conscience of africa, a blessing, who believes the solutions to the confidence problems can only come from within. and someone who will feel of it's time to unlock these regions, full potential need professional piano move by and is the one bus africa right here on archie of the so born and raised in kenya, professor the wound body is recognized as one of the leading public speakers not only in his homeland, but across the entire african continent, his thoughts are in such demands that he has been about several 1000 speeches all around the world on
