and yes, we're also known in the world as arms dealers that we must not be ashamed of that the be a rainy and military claims. an overnight is really a tax pause limited damage of all the id, f bows, revenge against further retaliation. if the regime in iran were to make the mistake of the beginning of the year round of escalation, we will be obligated to respond to georgia sans out across roads as a crucial parliamentary elections kick off the country. is set to decide whether it's future course live for the west for independence. and washington is raising concerns. and us media accuse tex billionaire. a lot of months ago cozying up to put in calling. the business stands endorsement of donald trump with

the claims emerging just over a week for, for the us presidential election. the live in moscow. i'm rachel ruble. you're watching archie international. we start with breaking news around, says the damage caused by israel's overnight attack was limited, and its air defense system successfully intercepted the missiles. despite the previous warnings from the atlantic republic, officials to the criminal and the legal zionist regime, to avoid any adventurous actions this freak regime attacked parts of military centers into ron cruz this time and the alarm provinces this morning and attend section. he stated that while the integrated air defense system of the country successfully intercepted encountered this aggressive act, limited damage was done to some places. and the dimensions of this incident are under investigation. these are the reported locations targeted by the israeli army

video is posted on social media, have shown this has been intercepted over to ron bye, a brand new and air defenses. i spoke earlier with our teams, middle east bureau chief, maria for notion of interest alignment r t correspondent use of july. and ron about this latest escalation, a highly anticipated as really a tac last day. the roughly 4 hours as around 6 am local time on such a day, the idea of announced that it had completed its limited operation in iran, named the days of response in retaliation for a runs october attack. and henri spokespersons stayed at the dozens of participate in fights of jobs, return safely home off the strike and exclusively military targets across iran, including facilities involved in may, solves production and launched as well as weapon storage is as an old tennessee 0 also targeted iran surface to air missile systems and air capabilities to expand, as well as freedom of aerial operations in iran. yonder relieves photos showing the

idea of chief of staff defense administered air force, chief commanding the attack from as well as military headquarters intel ivy with a prime minister engine yackel. also present all objectives were achieved. the army says, let's take a listen. if the regime in the wrong were to make the mistake of beginning a new round of escalation, we will be obligated to respond. our message is clear of all those is threatened, the state of israel and 6 to drag the region into wider escalation will pay a heavy price. off the iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at israel on october 1st. his railey retaliation was a matter of when the note, if with the key question being the choice of target. and it took as well, almost 4 weeks to respond. likely, these have disagreements between to let even washington over target selection with are you asked, prefer and likely you had limited response to avoid triggering

a full scale war. and for the risk relation in the region, it appears that pressure from washington ultimately influence the outcome as well as attack remains limited in scope with no oil or nuclear facilities targeted despite previous claims and warnings. the targets were confirmed with washington and american officials were repulsively brief before they strikes. of course, however, an american source told reuters that's the us was not directly involved in this attack. washington suppose that these really strikes calling them an act of self defense in response to the writing is sold, but expressed hope that the cycle of violence would end here that stick. listen. secretary austin vs in the are in class commitments of the united states to israel security invited to self defense in the face of threats from the wrong and the wrong box, the terrorist organizations and the determination to prevent any acts from exploiting time since or expands into conflict in the region as well. interesting

that while israel has the right to self defense, according to washington reports now indicates that the us is using all available channels to persuade iran not to retaliate or to limit its response. basically denying the similar right for to here on back to you. so what can you tell us about the situation there in our ron now and, and what's being said about whether or not we can expect to ron that to respond to all know the attack of the was less than meets the eye. and uh we did not see all those firey sweats spies will, vowing to wreak havoc on that rod following it was october, 1st attacked on the as well. so and what the people think and how the people have reacted to are these way the attack uh echo with what the a wanting officials have described it. uh we simply we heard from one of the high

ranking yvonne and officials most resigned. who said that the attack was a means to escape from the battle field rather than to inflict a damage on to one. the design, this regimes, aggression against iran, was motivated more by fear, a desire to flee the battlefield rather than the desire to show its power. everyone is waiting for images and now footages the surface from the sides of the attacks overnights uh to, to get a sense of the scale on the magnitude of the damages they inflicted on the iranian military sites. but so far on no such an image has been emerged from the side of beans despite all of the limited nature of the attack. erewhon vowed a response to it, and that's based on, on official sources. citing iranian officials saying that there are reserves, big strides to respond to these ready attack,

and that is perfectly in line with what the audio vonny and foreign ministry earlier said during an interview to r t. it was for administer. a boss are off to you also all set similar remarks while leaving the is really a violations and aggressive actions against one on the united states. always the, sorry i'm, you know, that's they are behind any time for you as well. we defend the last time. so some of the defend this time, again, if it affects us people to respond to the response. so all in all, for now we need to wait for more information to surface out of this overnight attack by swell against or want to get

a sense of whether or not to get wind will respond to all nations are lining up to condemn the is really attack on a ron and today are close to american ally in the region. saudi arabia says israel has violated international law and to ron's sovereignty, several others have called for an end to the cycle of violence and criticize the recent attack for undermining regional stability. right, we can park live now to academic isabella is i don who joins us from damascus. isabel, what are your thoughts on the international reaction so far to israel is attack? do you think israel will be held accountable? um, before asking whether is israel will be held accountable. we have to check with the status is on the of the, the other countries like the american, the, they made for more than one time the, the iranians in the world know that they have no part dissipation. on whatsoever of

any kind of to be involved in this kind of a talk that is right. yeah. and how long should i gave the it on? and 2nd of all, if you would have checked like it was in vain. i mean, this kind of talk has made all the attempts of these raise to normalize its relations with other are a work. i don't know when some our country, especially those in the, in the gulf and the close to you on, has made their attempt, has faded to, to make these countries to begin be something i don't, these are eighty's. we have seen a lot of statements made by them. some of these countries like saudi arabia and others, and they go ferry on the whole denounced, such stuff, talk on iran, a 2nd of all the international, i think the international altitude would be cautious, especially on the side of the americans. they want, how the is there

a accountable if is there a uh, what were held accountable since 1948, we would never have a witness subs atrocities we are witnessing now. so i don't think like, is there any would be held accountable. however, however, when iran filed about that, we can tell the ation, they do early till the ation even, even this kind of a talk. it's one in a mind the top, let's say, expected most of the military areas that were targeted. uh they were, i mean the, uh, the, the iranian government was informed about them earlier. they had an idea where the, the military points will be hit. and they were a, let's say emptied from deployments from any kind of weapons. so we can say like, like it's, and i've talked about this there about a retaliation. however, the, the iranian government about to retaliate. also, we can see some kind of

a propaganda or promotion in the favor of the is there a need, for example, they said that the, that we seem busy videos of the main, the electricity plants and iran being hit or targeted by these ratings. later on we would see a video live video stream from that you run from the head on from either a government rates in a wrong way or a talk with the lives blankets full of lights, electricity, nothing wrong, which also and all the a, the lives that have been told by the is there 89 to about these really propaganda? on and on. again, isabel, a of the pentagon issued a statement, 1st of all, denying that the us was involved in this attack and then saying that the strikes should be the end of ron and israel as exchange of fire. just think that's realistic for them to say something like that, that this back and forth,

a tax with and here, and also just to even deny the us involvement to i actually as i said, the, the international or let's say the americans found, or out of tude is very cautious because america would be smarter than getting involved and to any kind of the aggression lost by the user. he's against the country like iran. iran law is not a small country to be easily a talked or harassed or address, uh, or subjected to aggression and by some other country r n m into 2 creates a, let's say we, let's, i mean, we have to face that america supports israel, but they can not go further with that support. and the reason for that, everyone knows that it's an old story, but we have to remind people of it that america has other concerns,

other problems to be concerned about in the far east, where china is a china is coming, is becoming, is an emerging, is becoming an international word, the economy power and they are trying to project this economy power into a military power. so america, they caught, like, i mean, put all the support, all the, the no matter how disagreements or how much they, they have like the problems that are between the 2 companies that america and that, you know, america will not go any further than that with the supporting of these varieties, and this is why is very and has nothing bought to go through with the mainstream media is okay, they can only support them with the mainstream media. that's why we see a lot of exaggeration concerning attacks such as last night, being overrated by the mainstream media yesterday. but everything has been

contradicted now um, by other, other line videos coming from the places that were targeted. so they have to be cautious. they have to be careful because they can't go any further. can they come up be involved in an expanded a military reward just because there is a reckless political league either one of them to all right, we're going live with their academic isabel, insight on isabella. thank you. thank you. and turning to the south. congress is now where crowds are heading to pulling stations as crucial parliamentary elections kicked off in the republic of georgia. a few hours after voting began for parliamentary elections in georgia, a fight has already been reported online. the post of rights that it was filmed at a polling station in the west of the country. meanwhile, the head of the georgia dream ruling parties as voters have to clear options. those

who call on us to join the war and those who are ready to resist today in the long term, our country needs peace, peace keeping economic development, progress and revival more than ever. it is very easy to make a choice. on one side, there are forces that directly urge us to join the war. these are forces that are ready to dare all kinds of people, dirt against the country and the people for more than 3000 appalling stations have already opened across the country with the state election commission. preparing to accommodate over 3000000 voters. the ruling party has been in power for 12 years and is seeking to in a part of mentoring majority for the 4th time, but opposition parties are looking to create a coalition to push aside the georgia dream with voting underway. the us is already expressing concerns over election interference. we've made our concerns very clear about the trajectory of the democratic institutions and election process in georgia

and we remain very concerned about it. well, the founder of the georgia dream party, but xena yvonne is really has already voted piece that people need to choose the government that will either serve the people or one that will follow 4 instructions . ortiz shape both springs. us more details from freedom square. the very hearts of tbilisi. well, i'm a started here in freedom square in the center to police the georgia, georgia hotel. that's the form of the people in the so called many, many thousands of kilometers away from washington on brussels. good. uh, you know, uh, as a georgia dream party, the biggest party here been in power since 2012. they face off no against this united national move and which is a very loose coalition of numerous much smaller parties. this election is becoming portland and far away place it seems with the american government suggested in the even russian and chinese involvement. it seems to me as if this is a little bit

a hip hop received, i dare i say it's coming from the west. that's of a little listen to what that say. united states with their colleagues in europe have a long, strong instead, best friends to the people of georgia. unfortunately, this powerful bond has recently come under the wizard attack by the ruling georgia dream party. the georgia dream government has openly renounce the longstanding democratic and euro atlantic choice as the georgia and people ran a put and ask style find agent law to permit the united states must not allow this attack on georgia in democracy and it 0 atlantic future to go on and so it's very interesting when they mentioned that you know of vague to coney law, so that foreign agency, united states has had a foreign agents registration for decades. united states on particularly and to be

blinking so angry. it seems on, on a copy to georgia is passing laws which defended sovereignty. and essentially, the georgia law, the, for an agency registration or the same is georgia version of it brought to the table both to the front of, of the georgia dream is essentially a georgian version of the phrase, same law. so instead of very hypocritical america, it was a quick to say that they would now even consider sanctioning georgia and the european union suggested that they would then withdraw funding from the beginning that some of us, today's action of the schools are concerned about the consequences of empty democratic actions in georgia and efforts by key individuals to use violence and intimidation to achieve the aims, the united states remains committed to holding accountable those who seek to undermine the rights of the georgian people. and again, when this act was passed, the ruling party here at georgia dream remembered democratically elected by the majority of people. the vast majority of voting for the agents of research and see

who the parties were most aggressively opposed to the new legislation were of assumed itself. for on the phone and chose more than half of them didn't even have a website. a lot of the didn't to submit their annual financial returns on hooked onto pretty length. you can see where this money was coming from. european and american age hmos. chief among the united states also suggested that it would launch a new law in america called a mega barry act, which is a huge target to stick to essentially huge funding for georgia follows the atlantis as western view of the world. but what they failed to tell us in the western media is that both sides of the political divide here at the national coalition data facing georgia, dream on georgia, dream one to follow a european pod division. this is georgia. dream said they want to do it their way

sensitive to george and tradition, fulcher, and regional realities, particularly not wanting to get thrown into any kind of conflict with russia and ukraine, heated seats on the billboards around the, the city here, people say choose peace. we don't want to have a called a white on to point, so that's how this me to and together with the georgian people logically complete the european path. we started and become a member of the european union while preserving our dignity in response. the agents of external forces still want war chaos, and poverty, leading to the destruction of the country, internal and external enemies should not be allowed to destroy georgia. georgia is a country whose population wants to become a member of the european family with peace, dignity, and prosperity preserving its own values. of course, all this information needs people to ask here in georgia, the politicians into police,

the of the pilot had to choose the united states want to achieve some sort of regime change here. the color revenue should light on 2 point oh, as the georgia people go to the polls, the noise will be uh, on, typically see at george. and so you need to get 60 percent to get us, which are ready to go over and again for the next the number of years as do this, a very lose the that coalition. and one of the key points is, is how will this lucy led coalition heavily back for the west on the react? if georgia dream achieves it's going to 60 percent, will there be more protests? could that be violent clashes here? it's a police, it will be here following the story, every step of the way, the director of the george and russian public center dmitri large company needs a says, the selection marks the 1st time that occasion country has gained the opportunity to become an international player. a contribution about the visit us at the pro russian nature of the georgia dream is the main component of the western narrative

. what the georgia dream is doing today is the only right step for georgia to find its place in the world community in the system of international relations as an independent sovereign state to serve its organic external interest and an independent way. if the victory that georgia in dream will gain, which of course will not be the victory of one party since the interests of the entire georgian people are accumulated in the georgia dream. if it is convincing, if through the sustained support of the georgian people, there is not just a victory, but the preservation of this victory. of course, the global west will have to count with but with the choice of the georgian people . since this is not just a political election, it is actually a referendum in which society must answer the question. how statesman like is its attitude to the future development of its country. does society realize what external priorities are for a country that has been slavish? lee subordinated to the global west for 30 years. and today it has

a g o political chance, a window of new opportunities to serve its national interest to choose the external vector. that is georgia will acquire the function of a stable bridge between geo political centers. this is the 1st time that georgia has been given the opportunity to become an international player and have all those priorities that will be appreciated by the international community. this opportunity has appeared as a result of the military conflict in ukraine, which is not a war between ukraine and russia. it is a confrontation between the global west against the east, where russia is the main buffer. the tide to moscow narrative is quickly becoming a staple of us presidential elections. now this time this we're campaign is targeting none other than donald trump's key ally. eli musk accusations of the tech millionaires. cosy ties are not pulling focused away from the candidates themselves . are to serena cuz we're able to take a closer look. the mosque has become

a big store and in washington's side, especially since he announced to support for former us president donald from now this is a man who everyone in his field knows and respects. not only is he not afraid to speak his minds, but he also has a lot of influence. and maybe that's why we're seeing so many recent attempts to smear him. space x is now under intense scrutiny for environmental violations out in south texas star based facility. the department of justice has filed a lawsuit against face executing the company of hiring discrimination companies. largest stakeholder is facing a new lawsuit of choosing the billionaire of market manipulation. and just in case that didn't do the trick they brought out their trump card quite literally just doing can eat on most of lot of our boots and, and you'll have americans warming that he's leaking washington's top secret to

russia. i think we don't know what the details are right in the us. officials don't really know, but isn't certainly not something that our national security officials are going to think that as a good faith it's, it's hard to imagine that someone who is a government contractor and a defense contractor. it that isn't constant conversations with one of our chief adversaries in the world. it shouldn't be hard to believe it, but it's not, but it's not letting me put and is a former k g b official. there's just no question. the vladimir putin would have been trying to utilize eli mosque as an asset for the russian statement. there apparently best friends who regularly discussed personal topics, business and geo political time since the whole street journal claims that have received this information from several cards and former us, your pin and russel officials, who also revealed the boots and asked the billionaire to avoid activating he starling satellite internet service over its firewall as

a favor to the site and the these later i'll just like a boots and supposedly got a lot of favors from, from after he helped him. when during the 1st selection, though, it's still unclear how exactly are also benefited from, from this presidency. it's also on a clear whether proof is and once again, just and know all of those sources anonymously making claims. providing 0 evidence just relying on smoking headlines to work their magic well, most go is as always a set in the record straight on that as you remember, put in was accused of goals really having conversation with jump. now he's allegedly talking with musk. these claims are all completely false. the wall street journal published a completely false statement put in had only one and culture with most before 2022 . that sold had more of introductory style. they talked about the future and the vision salvage loss came, itself has said that these claims are absurd, but who's listening?

they're basically trying to expose and punish him and the lead up to the election. and the latest scandal is over his $1000000.00 which stakes. so one of the things we're, we're doing is we want to try to get over a 1000000, maybe 2000000 of, of, of voters in the battleground states to sign the petition in support of the 1st and 2nd amendment. we're going to be awarding a $1000000.00 to a random weights. if people have signed that get signed the petition every day from now until the election this is a way of getting people to vote in swing states and of course must can definitely afford that which is making a lot. 4 of people angry like the democrats and the justice department, which jumped on this right away. saying that this could be illegal though they can be sure yet. it's still

a wonder if the departments is also looking in. so those staffers from the british labor party who are campaign and for hi mila harris right now in the west, and questions remain over. who sponsoring that, cheerleading squad, and how legal that is. but of course, the law mosque is arguably far more powerful than the u. k labeled party and also a key figure in the type and space industry which puts them in a very tricky position. one person aware of the conversations. so the government faces a dilemma because it is so dependent on the billionaires technologies space x launch is vital national security satellites into orbit. and is the company now so relies on to transport astronaut to and from the international space station think. don't love it. the person said, referring to the must put in contacts. the person however, said no alerts have been raised by the administration. overt possible security breaches by musk muskets sets that have top level clear incentives, no doubt,

be monitored so safe to assume that if there was communication between him and vladimir putin, the bets would know about it and could probably provide evidence. so is this all about just another spirit campaign for american voters to lead up? since they're also trump hope sort wonders for them last time? even if it was proven falls, the question is, will they buy the narrative this time? most of the conservative daily pod cast, jo, altman says, those who refuse to sing to the tune of the democrats will face similar backlash. you know, the unfortunate part is anyone that a, that opposes the agenda, that is, is so evident and united states that becomes the enemy. and it doesn't matter. you can think for yourself, you're taught not to think for yourself. and in this, in this, in this regard, deal on mosque is, is a business guy, right?

he's been doing business and creating innovation all over the world. but that's what you're seeing now is they just turn against the view is once revered as the person, the other, the left uses, a beacon of hope. and now they, they look at him, is it? and he is betrayed their interest ideology. that frankly is been a perverse with with sickness. and so what they're trying to do is manipulate and to create a narrative that gets people to believe what the results will be in november. and so this is just another one of those smear campaigns with baseless accusations. and things that they make up out of sitting there in order to despair to someone like you on my score or president trump. so i don't, i don't think we, we, you understand, or i don't think anyone across the entire country are world understands the, the, the, what's really happening in the united states. the machine companies are 100 percent, the issue, the male and ballots. and the fact that we can vote through the may.
