the most eating good is the most val, it's counted, the ruling party of georgia is officially leading the rate taking around 60 percent of saturday's parliamentary vote of georgia and opposition rejects the results. says it claims the ruling party has stage a coup and vows to protest on the sunday also ahead of the regime in the wrong word to make the mistake of beginning a new year round of escalation. we will be obligated to respond. israel's threatens to strike a rod yet again. if to rod responds to the idea of sober night attacks that solve for soldiers killed and amid calls for slavery reparations from around the world. king charles acknowledges, quote, painful aspect that brittany passed during the commonwealth summit in samoa,

but he still didn't apologize. the you're watching r t international. i am your host donald quarter for to have you on the program that we start this news hour in the south caucus is where, according to the georgia and central election commission, the ruling party is leading the race with around 60 percent of the parliamentary votes. as, as most of the ballots cast on saturday, have been counted with the final results due later on sunday, incumbent georgia dream party has already been celebrating with fireworks in downtown tbilisi and also hosted a festive motorcycle parade throughout the city streets. meanwhile, scores that the government supporters gathered near the party headquarters parties shaped boats took us through saturdays developments in the georgia and kept the poll todd clo was indeed,

i'm not going to give you some numbers. now the electoral commission preliminary daddy says that the final vote or turn it was over 58 percent and they also report the according to the results, more than 70 percent of the pallets have been counted. won't have official results until same day. but georgia in 3, definitely a topic. the polls here in georgia. well, previous selections in georgia. shay, they've been really marked by violence. how's it looking so far? this time around? we've been here on the ground all day. generally things have been quiet. there's been some minor score falls, there's been some fall of boxes and some scuffles and fights really between the different factions, but nothing really of, of huge nose. so that could be due to the fact that the cookies prime minister had recently signed the decrease at on the, which the caesar of blocking of any state facilities, etc. could be plunged by several years in prison. and that's us to georgia speaker

of the parliament to year. so the opposition with the support of foreign n g o is a firm funded n g o's who be planning to challenge their legitimate results of the election. we see signs that there are preparations for october 27 to repeat the scenario of 2020 with non governmental organizations. and the opposition sought to change the government in a non democratic way. the goal was to declare the parliament illegitimate. stop it from convening and to force snap elections. we've had the various functions that here's the other of causing publications at various points. throughout the day. we've had people being very, very positive with us about being happy to talk with many people here speak russian and english. and we can actually have a listen to some of them giving us their views on how they voted on why they voted

that way. as a sample by say, this is the biggest day, in my opinion, in the life of the republic we are for peace for freedom. we will not obey anyone. we all want to live together. i came to the elections because i believe that everyone, all citizens of georgia should go to the polls. because this is the most important thing for democracy. everyone should choose their voice, maybe their party. russia is our closest neighbor that must be friends with everyone. i think it's important for the economy. we are happy with our government . we love our homeland. we want the best for it. i believe that only the oppressive government can guarantee us these freedom and prosperity. that is why i came to go to them. pretty much every time george's had some sort of significant political event going on. i mean, the west seems to feel like it has to give its opinion or even get involved directly. i mean, there's been times where they've threatened the country with sanctions. so what about this time around? what's been the reaction to this country's election so far from the west?

it's no secret of the rest. that one's happy with the governmental program of georgina jeanine, souping and power here since 2012. and they have been quite vocal in that. and they're very eager to talk about election interference in the united states or anywhere else. but they seem very happy to interfere by their inputs, if you like in the solvent elections here in georgia and known, the less than jake sullivan was very clear and very adamant and very foresight of his comments before the vote that even taken place. we've made our concerns very clear about the trajectory of the democratic institutions in election process in georgia and we remain very concerned about it. i suppose we'll see, concern is of the you on united states a and e. you have now try to ritual funding on the basis of some of the legislative done in the georgia dream prior to helping to go from the top of doing here

a particularly in relation to eligibility to suffer down the safe hospitals to limit the they've also passed bills to find out who exactly is funding begins. vios who are aggressively and energetically following the opposition. here. i remember the opposition essentially a broad coalition of the various different parking some too small if even registered at a 5 percent in the holding to making the impacts. also important to note that the legislation of the united states, so aggressively at complaining about suggested chinese and rushing interference. here is legislation essentially model on american legislation. the far an age of switch station, which has been in power and power in united states for, for decades. so it's no surprise that the u. s. is shifting very loudly because it's not getting its own way here in georgia and its circling seems that they're not going to get the wrong way here in georgia of the georgia dream party. and it's a opposition all state that they want to follow a european pathway for the georgia dream and said we want to do it on our own terms

on the basis of the requirements of the georgia people, their cultural sensitivity instead of religious sensitivities, as opposed to being dictated to whether you buy brussels or by washington until night, it's been made quite clear. it seems that georgia dream we'll be looking at another term. i mean, we'll hopefully find that out on sunday for sure, but they've definitely got the lion's share of the boat so far here. at least judge an opposition parties have accused the government of rigging the election. they've also vowed to protest the results of the vote later on sunday. those statements were published in english instead of their native georgian directions were stolen. this is a crew. the georgia dream party is responsible for it and they will be held accountable . hour and equivocal decision is that the georgia dream will not remain in power. it's a constitutional cou. we do not recognize the outcome of this stolen election as betrayed by this central election commission. we will fly it until the end of this

regime. political strategist and commentator anthony webber says that the georgia in opposition is involved is emboldened by western support for regime change. it's really possible all the people who want what is best for their tongues, for it is to say the fee put forward by the georgia dream policy. but, but i do want you to want to use because i wanted to join on time as well as i remain friendly with russia on the arctic rush. commendable they're going to be moving countries in the wall on said piece as the right stable relations, economic and electrical with the night. but it is rate the fault as a whole world to be. and i think one of the points about the georgia dream policies and sign. so that very moment georgette should be dropping invested in for us to control people and, and not have

a problem. i appreciate based off the paper we're actually on behalf of the farm interests. i just think is interesting that the fund into the time sitting this election seems to have provides full policies which wasn't necessarily 100 percent got along with a shop by coming into some sort of actual alarms just to trying to see the georgia dream policy is a part of the sort of interesting election. and from where i have to say, well happens, we turn now to the middle east. the rainy and revolutionary guard corps has confirmed the depths of 4 of its soldiers. and israel strike on saturday to ron says that the damage cause to infrastructure was limited though with air defense system successfully intercepting most of the idea of missiles. ron has also accused the last of complicity. the facility is to be seen small,

plain subtract 7 to live out in middle to end the sites from a rocky space, approximately 70 miles from the rounds border. iraqi, a space is on the the occupation command and control of the us mailed 3 conclusion . us complacently in this crime is on your screen. are the reported locations targeted by the i d, f, which claims a number of military sites were hate with so called precise strikes, while videos on social media apparently showed missiles being shot down over the rainy and capital drawn says it has a right to defend itself and it's retaliation will be, quote, deliberated. earlier on saturday, our middle east bureau chief maria for national, broke down the regional developments to my colleague rachel ruble. a highly anticipated as really a tac last day. the roughly 4 hours as around 6 am local time on such as a v i v f announced that it had completed its limited operation in iran,

named the days of response in retaliation for a runs october attacks and armies. folks, 1st of the state of a dozens of participate in fight address, return safely home off the strike and exclusively military targets across iran, including facilities involved in may solve production and launched as well as western storages and single tennessee. israel also targeted a wrong surface to air missile systems, an air capabilities to expand, as well as the freedom of aerial operations in there on the, on the release photos showing the idea of chief of staff defense minister, the air force chase commanding the attack from his rouse 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,

all those is threatening 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 has rarely retaliation was a matter of when the note, if with a key question being the choice of targets. and it took as well, almost 4 weeks to respond. likely, these are disagreements between till are 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 collection in the region, it appears that pressure from washington ultimately influence the outcome as as well as a tag remains limited in scope with no oil or nuclear facilities target. despite previous claims and warnings, the targets were confirmed with washington and american officials were repulsively brief before they strikes. of course, however, and americans source told rotors,

that's the us was not directly involved in this attack. washington suppose that these really strikes, calling them an act of self defense and response to the ran into sold, but expressed hope that the cycle of violets would end here. let's take a listen. secretary austin via the ottoman clause, commitments of the united states to israel security invite to self defense in the face of flux from iran and the wrong back terrorist organizations. and the determination to prevent any acts from exploiting time since or expands into conflict in the region. 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 multiple states have condemned israel's attack kind of run south africa has called the idea of striking an unacceptable

violation of a rainy and sovereignty. russia is urging an end to the cycle of violence and is criticized the overnight attack for undermining regional stability. americans. syrian journalist and political commentator stevens so really says the is really strikes how far short of expectations while a run is actually seeking to de escalate the situation. israel 2nd uh, to destroy. yeah, well uh, what pin storage is destroys military bases destroyed as well as button dandy does not do all of that everyones solved and uh, from there the status of the gym and that, you know, and these cabinets is always going to be a massive very, at a back end struction but as we see that there is not that much. yeah. damage doors that that puts the. busy in the near distance is shut down almost all of the missiles so, and this won't take the reason into a reason,

wanna have the same time you run once this decrease the situation because who wants to increase the situation and the tension. and the reason is benjamin missing you when you're on doesn't want to get when jimmy mentioned y'all, an excuse to cause a war in the region and they do not want to give him a gift. now to northern gaza, we're at least $35.00 palestinians have reportedly been killed and is really strikes that hit residential areas in bates like he a city. just a warning you may find the following. images, disturbing footage circulating online appears to show some of the palestinian victims of the idea of attack at flats and several buildings in the area. local emergency services say a number of people are leading out, associating with the strike. rescuers are currently unable to operate. there may be ongoing ideas besides this comes just hours after is really forces with through from the besieged. come all odd one hospital and on the same area of northern cause . i'm not really are the local health ministry reported that hundreds of medics

patients, that displaced palestinians were detained by the id f. during a raid on the medical facility hospitals. director said is really tanks fire. it's directly on the top the, the hours away from the death of all these people and how long can this contain. 2 instead of receiving aid, we receive tax tanks that are showing the building which law allows for a hospital to be directly targeted. where is this law just now the come all add one hospital was directly show. this is a catastrophe where the humanitarian laws, enough already, this is happening too often are injured, are turning into martyrs. instead of receiving aid, we receive tanks, direct showing. what did they want from us? our rights are supposed to be protected under humanitarian law. the more disturbing images from inside the hospital show, a number of seriously injured children. rarely tanks were spotted surrounding the

besieged facility as the idea of claims to be acting against terrorism in the area . officials say palestinian civil defense operations had been completely halted in the northern part of the enclave. due to constant is rarely a tax. on emergency teens. we spoke with a civil defense representative loc mode muscle, who says that the adf is blocking 82 civilians in the area for the city is really occupation, always promotes lies and uses terms that have dual meetings or multiple interpretations . now the israeli occupation claims that it is bringing 8 into northern gaza. but the reality is that the northern gaza strip is divided into 2 parts of gaza. city in the northern gauze of governor the northern gauze, a governor. it has not received any aid at all for 20 days or in the humanitarian situation. there is very difficult a money order as for gaza city some relief trucks, sorento, but they do not meet the citizens needs. additionally,

these really occupation always claims that shelters and hospitals are considered terror centers in order to gain the authority to rate them or justify these violations to the international community. unfortunately, these hospitals have a specific role in nature of work, in treating patients and using doctors to provide emergency and medical services to citizen. and there are absolutely no military activities there. the as rarely occupation knows the nature of their work and recognizes our orange best. and doctors also have clear symbols. everyone including the as rarely occupation, no system. if the as rarely occupation had any belief that we're involved in any political or military field, we would have been targeted from the beginning of the war. but they know that we work in broad daylight under as rarely plains, that constantly hover in the sky. unfortunately, they want to create justifications to bomb destroy and sabotaged the system in northern gaza and throughout the strip. certainly the party responsible for the

difficult humanitarian situation in the gaza strip is the, is really occupational when they empty the northern governor rate of citizens and deprived them of food essentials for life, water medicine and completely dismantled emergency services and shut down the entire civil defense system, they are responsible for the consequences of this military operation. currently happening image of a layer area. we're now talking about nearly a 1000 citizens killed in northern gauze, including those in hospitals. those under the rubble and those on the roads from the civil defense teams cannot reach or do anything for therefore the party responsible for these martyrs and for the state of the detainees. and the citizens currently in northern garza, is the israeli occupation. it is required to provide them with all the rights and resources needed to keep them alive. but now it is fighting, killing besieging in demolishing buildings with people inside. while the whole

world watches the german arms industry giant riding the tall says it's launched its 1st factory at an undisclosed location inside ukraine. the firms chief claims there's plenty more where that came from. things are progressing. the 1st plan is ready. the 2nd is on its way. i am now insisting on accelerating all of this because we don't have time. we can't afford to lose it. the 3rd point is that we want to establish the production of air defense systems in germany's been providing weapons, shells, and armored vehicles do you crate. the conflict has already seen ryan montalvo profit sore, and the company is expected to make a record high 10000000000 dollars this year. we got reaction from german officer and war correspondent thomas roper. he says that the european firm does not seem worried about the prospect. so it's brand new factory being bombed in ukraine. for right metal, it's a win win win win situation. and they receive orders from the same page by the west

. if something happens to the factory, the german government pays. so for them, it's just a win, win win, and your train gets weapons from the list as much as they can give. if you had one factory, okay, this will not change anything on the back of your let's try to submit your criticism. so this will not help it's, it's over, it's just that they are just buying some time by printing more money for the rest of the military. just sort of control context and by killing more people, but it will not make a change. this comes in at a rapid ukrainian retreat on the battlefield, where russian troops are gaining ground every single day. do you ever stepping up the forest mobilization of civilians as it struggles to replenish lawson for media footage from the eastern ukrainian city park of shows. campbell flushed men snatching locals right off the streets. and recruitment officers are reportedly stationed every 100 meters along the roads. there, amid the chaos and ukraine,

vladimir zalinski has quietly signed the law that allows foreigners to hold officer posts in the countries military, rushes foreign ministry spokeswoman says the move, we'll see more cannon fodder on the front lines. you know flooring tomatoes can more actively finish off ukrainians by throwing them into the meat grinder. they'll make sure that you craniums won't be able to take p d on salary ukrainians by not sending them to their deaths. that's not good. zalinski is being paid for german officer and work or a spot, and thomas roper once again says, the lack of trained soldiers means more western weapons won't do. the trick for kias. ukraine has to be gets enough weapons. i think the problem is you can't, doesn't have enough focus of ukrainian army knows even allowing for an s to be to be, become offers us. and you can have problem with socialists with offices. so you can

have what weapons. but if they don't have enough train soldiers who can use them, it doesn't make any change. so it's, it's part of this less than a program printing money and they can give money to the, um yeah, how do you call it? industrial complex is each and then they get the money so they want to have the weapons in the us in german factories that writing the child and know they have one more thing to be. um, i think this will not make any big change. in other news, king charles has acknowledged, quote, painful aspects of britain's past well side stepping calls to directly address reparations for slavery. at a summit of commonwealth leaders, i understand from listing to people across the commonwealth, i have the most painful aspects about past continue to resume. it is vital, the full that we understand history, to guide us to make the right choices in the future. as we look around the world

and consider is many, deeply consenting challenges it lets us choose within the hour, cut my bills from the language of community and respect and rejects the language of division. none of us can change the past, but we can commits with all hearts to learning is less and to finding creative ways to write any qualities that didn't show. the british monarch spoke a lot but stopped short of delivering a proper apology. officials in former u. k. colonies across africa and the caribbean had been calling on london to financially compensate their nations for centuries of the notorious slave trade. but the prime minister, kira storm, or his government ruled out any reparations ahead of the commonwealth summit in similar archie correspondence, lima issue har, says, or takes us through rather the ramifications of the former empires. legacy to

process break summit has overshadowed the commonwealth summit. and that's not surprising because, well, break sees all states and peoples as equals the u. k. stance wrong. and it's believe that well is colonial legacy of slavery is not worth a serious discussion. i've talked to a lot of our commonwealth colleagues in the commonwealth family and they're facing real challenges on things like climate in the here and now and, and all the conversations i've had with them. what they're most interested in is, can we help them working with international institutions, financial institutions, on the sorts of packages they need right now in relation to the challenges they're facing right now? that's where i'm going to put my focus rather than what will end up being very long . endless discussions about reparations on the past. that despite calls from leaders of some common wealth nations urgent and to acknowledge the atrocities that committed during the transatlantic slave trade. and to at least have an honest conversation about it. i don't know that money in and of itself could adequately

compensate for the wrongs of the past. the ghost that haunts us today cannot be in my view, dispelled by and wanted to re gift. there should be a come to jesus moment where we truly looked at one another in the all and say, look, this is what happened. the commer well, summit has highlighted that britain is long time, april and so its former colonies is finally declining. the guest list certainly isn't as impressive as long the wanted to have the most powerful commonwealth leaders who would normally be present. the indian prime minister and the south african president boats, not the event they offered to attend the brick summit in russia instead, and not even the leader of canada. a close ally of the u. k. is attending while london's refusal to talk reparations is leading to even more people turning their backs on the former colonial center in the,

the, the ability to move into that icon as much as i would miss con, concerns a referendum. yes, it is now time for us to end our historical ties with the monkey and stand holy on our own. we need a jamaican head of state who truly represents all values, culture and aspirations, and who will symbolize our full sovereignty. even the commonwealth games a sports event, gathering applets from applause. the former colonies are falling apart. in july, last year, the australian states of victoria pulled out as a host of the 2026 games, while older as fairly in states and territories, also rejected hosting them. and while london watches what remains of its former colonial powers slipping through his fingers, russia and his bricks, partners,

i team it up to build a world free of any forms of neil colonialism. we spoke with a nigerian historian, an educator who says that the question of reparations is one that cannot be ignored . so what do i make it is that's the, that's us. that's the spot sweet place. you know, the michel of the british political system above us is that a illusion? in the british public school system? this is a bit odd weather gets warm to find the product. there is nothing depressed. no, but i was worried about between the political, you know, boxes be because i bid, you know, be the political party because most of the said, most of these political parties, old, defend i, john, also all the have to pay the body shop with june. the body shop was going to get started, but that's why it's doing that going to be built on the studies did believe the 2nd

one is ignoring the body shop. was done because of the mission of the government as well. because mon, i d u like i put them a lot during the budget slavery, do you like the most duly going to the end of the country? and it's not at all for me to do that, but because maybe i saw she met so much, well, as she's not willing to do that time, she's not willing to let it go. if brushed one of these words, does she have to meet? that's all for this hour. thanks a lot for watching r t international. and we hope you have a great day. the take a fresh look around his life. kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power type vision,

with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify, it will confuse who really wants a better wills and is it just because it shows you fractured images, presented to this, or can you see through their illusions, going underground? can the chest, the going out of the and let me, what's going to be can.
