the the 300 militants have been eliminated in northern syria over the past. they are fighting that says russia points to cranes, involvements in the violent uprising saying here provides to terrorist with roles and intelligence support. also have the washington brushes up concerns the state farm level non is cracking as the idea of police in storage of pressure strikes and the country south. our correspondence is one of the 1st journalists to reach the area, bringing us exclusive reports from on the ground. this is the end of the road for us. behind us is the village of maroon ross. this is a video it's still occupied by is by default is they were refusing to allow local

to return home even finding them in breach of the agree ceasefire. and the cleaning house in georgia where opposition figures and western back to n z o is behind the turmoil are being rounded up. following raids on their offices . sorry, say almost a 3rd of protesters, they detained a foreign nationals, the from our headquarters in moscow. i'm rachel ruble. this is our t international. we began in syria where the defense ministry says at least 300 militants, have been eliminated in the past day of fighting alone on that side of state. forced to secure the city of law and prepare to repel any future attacks the working in tandem, missouri on ground troops and russian airports. as i said,

you had inflicted heavy terrace losses in the north weapons and armor vehicles belonging to the true rear. outside of the hottest field for also capture, the syrian army officer says the ships won't rest until the whole country is free of the militants. as easily thought, the defense points of being reinforced in the northern country side of hama, to support and assist the advancing forces with the equipment and fight to those men. of the syrian army would not stop its authoration and city until the last inch about territory is free to you know, my appointment, and make sure that you know of an entrance to the city of how much funds and continues in several directions around the staging questions that taking place between the syrian only interest groups, these groups are trying to enter the city of em. but as we can see mand zayn. now aberdeen is still under the control of the syrian military for certain tibbetts. he is also noticing, at the moment the striking mount cap front of a terrace organizations trying to strengthen their positions, serial and brushing aircraft to deliberately attacking the positions of these

grades, and thereby preventing their attempts to gain a foothold in. the 2nd question is also continuing in the village of camera. okay. due to the east of a city of time. uh since yesterday evening fighting has continued between the series and all me on service groups in the eastern direction of san juan and the northern direction. it is relatively calm, have been since the post tendencies in the some direction is increasing as terrorist groups are trying to advance to the east and break through this site though, they're attempting to enter the vintage of cuts they mailed you about to break through in this direction in order to encircle the signal from the noise. however, these are, you know, i mean, i still doing everything possible to prevent the terrace from advancing, showing them with various fly went, but attacks on the supply lines, the terrorist groups continue and syrian and russian at crockett company focused on striking supply lines the for the northern suburbs the time as well as the southern part of the suburbs of a libby, a treating the village as american caution coolly strikes to being carried out on by c supply lines of terrorist organizations. and on that concentration centers in

order to store terrace from advancing further towards the city of drama and to reduce the intensity of their attack, same to count it during the city was to present flashes of still ongoing in several directions. there is relative calm in the north, alabama, while the fighting is becoming more intense and the east of the city. the terrorist attacks have forced over 115000 people to leave their homes and fleece south. these refugees have found themselves stuck in a make shift to shelter is that local schools, volunteers provide food and warm clothes as to whether the folder those displaced have describes their exhausting journey to safety. the when the militant storm, the level we left the city immediately while the highway was still open. we also left everything behind. there was tara and shelling. so we arrived here exhausted. so i like mostly the best say, i mean the terrorists were nero's i'm. they wanted to enter a google,

we left on there for nothing. but as the most important thing was that our kids were 6, we fled with children in our small car like everyone else. those without cars have to walk on foot as the safety of the children and what is the most important thing as civilians of state from northern areas fighting there and continues footage of the militants and building fortifications and preparing for new classes in the emerging online. and one of the main forces of fighting the syrian army is high up to where i was from this group broke off from the aisle news refund, which he used to be a branch of a kind of view on, along with russia in the us or among those who designated as a tower group. well that said to we're all sean is currently working with the syrian national army, formerly known as the fruits or an army which washington provide support to russia has raised concerns that kev is also assisting the militant group. should not so sometimes we draw attention to the fact that among the foreign fighters,

and i think there was clearly a so called ukrainian trace. given the information we have received about the cooperation between the special services of the keepers, english and the militants of the terrorist organization. tough for your alshaun, including the transfer of drones experience and their use and so on. this is not the 1st and unfortunately, as far as we know, not the last region where the key of terrorist regime will apply its criminal experiences before it was african countries. now it is syria, there is no doubt that they would not have dared such an audacious action without the incitement and full support of external forces that want to provoke a new round of arms confrontation in syria and us based in geo that supports us lama some serious seems to have confirmed the cabs lincoln to the terrorist group to nations, syrian rebels and ukrainians are fighting for the country to be free of tyranny, an outside occupation. it's natural for them to coordinate the fact that ukrainians are involved. nobody should harbor any illusion. so this is somehow an initiative

by you freight on it. so having snow. so again, ukraine is really under the some of the west as well. that's a tool, nato. and so by virtue of ukrainian officers and trainers being working side by side, it's not surprising the nazis would be there with these as law making extreme us all they're doing so with the blessing and support of the west. so i'm not shocked by it at all. if the she was on the other foot, if the roles were reversed, different rush, it was providing the kind of support that the united states is providing to keep it for us. it was providing that support in mexico. the united states would view that as an active ward would retaliate. you know, i have candidly, i think for us has been entirely too patient throughout this because they interpret russian patient as weakness. and that's why this is continuing to the a bite and the bite and ministration is basically trying to set the world on fire

before it leaves office. now i think they're doing a pretty good job of setting it on fire over to 11 on our reports that as well as violating its shaky truth with hezbollah, are increasing by the day. the us is sticking to a story that the cease fire is holding up and it is thanks to the peace mechanisms established together with paris. that's what's important about what we were able to set up working with france. kevin oversight mechanism. if there are concerns that one party, the other is violating the ceasefire, it comes to us and one way or another, we engage the parties. that's exactly what's happened to cease fires is holding. and we're using the mechanism that was established when any concerns arisen about any alleged or 40 violations the same day blinking made his statement. the idea for least footage of its air strikes on the southern lebanese

area of mazda, all assume a separate is released, right. they are a portal, it claims the lives of 3 civilians are to stave sweeney. was one of the 1st journalists to reach the south of the country to bring us a series of exclusive 1st look reports from the area in southern lebanon. just days after the si, fi came into effect. village of the village, town of the town, whole streets to rubble, hospitals most in churches, among the many buildings destroyed by he's ready to invite as dystopian sayings. not a single settlements across 711 and remains on touched. the summit of destruction lingers in the dust where they were once buildings thousands of are turned off to the cease fire defying is way the warnings many not knowing whether the homes are still standing. kona, the seeking of a notorious massacre in 1996. when is well opened fire when the un compound lies in ruins. and mara k is the same. and so the kids come from

my own room or have really bombarded during israel's latest on salt. this has been job, i will close to the board that very much on the front line of as well as for on lebanon, on the road hay. from time we possibly village off the village, many of which were reduced to rubble. these are the villages as well. has ordered residents not to attend to that they have defined those old is returning to that holmes. returning to that land. now just behind me, it's been your battle hospital. it was very by the time is in and is ready to strike. remember these all precision strikes? so this was deliberately targeted, a wall crime. and remarkably, the hospital remained open during the most intense of the fighting. treating though is wounded in the past. so i thought i saw israel as usual, cannot destroy the resistance or the fighters. so it resorts to attacking medical facilities such as the l, rosella association, and hospitals,

which are and what does the hospital have to do with what is happening? is it a military target studies hospitalized for the wounded and sick? not for anything else, not of the wounded or civilians who were injured. military personnel do not usually go to the hospital terms, which it seems nothing was bad. the is really brutality as well. they're all no red lines. you can see here, behind me, this is a most that was destroyed and it is right, the strike we've spoken to local people here. and they say that there are still 2 bodies yet to be recovered from the impact side, the clear operations where they are on the way now since the sci fi came into effect, we know in a nearby village, there were $47.00 bodies still to be recovered. in another, 17 bodies were under the rubble. 10 of those have been recovered. but this is the grim reality now, facing the lebanese people. as they slowly started to return to the villages in the south. now the grim discovery of those killed and use radio and still continues the official desktop just under $4000.00 likely to rise as we drive across to around

the sky. it is the damage becomes apparent for this is the ancient and historic soup area off in chicago. this is an area where people would come to do the shopping. this is a civilian area and we've spoken to local is who said that because the is ladies couldn't defeat the resistance. they stopped the targeting civilian heavy as part of a psychological rule against the people i just saw. busy of our enemies 6 to prove its strength through the killing of children and innocent people in the destruction that follows what we show the is really enemy and it's supporters that no matter what happens to all, i mean, no matter how much destruction in killing there is but we will remain steadfast and we will remain on our land on this. we will not leave it and no one can occupy us. ellen, uh, when i got back i was relieved because we want to thank god for that. but i was a sad because of the people i lost and i hope the cease fire less and the volume and stops at the oh, june the ends with access to someone's blog to, to,

to the presence of his right. the so which is well behind us is ben jaleco. this was the scene of intense fighting between the is ready on forces on the has been a resistance. this is the end of the road for us. behind us is the village of maroon ross. this is a village is still occupied by is why the forces they were refusing to allow local to return home even firing, got them in breach of the agree, see spot almost on cue as well. open fire. the gunshots continued as we made our way to safety, as well continues to won't coupon marino, rus, even though the seas 5 remains in place to disruption continues. folders just add on a mosque, finishes are unable to attend. and only those media organizations imbedded with the as ready troops allowed access, most of the children of the lebanese authorities, somewhere between 40100000 homes, are being damaged or destroyed, the estimated cost of the destruction. $13000000000.00 us dollars. a figure likely to rise, but the people remain dignified with tony, with the heads held high and continuing to support the resistance. one of edge all

season continues to hold. for now, this is steve sweeney for all the southern lebanon. on to the republic. i'm george and now we're officials have rated the offices interested protest instigators. they say are sponsored by western end giosel and riots in the capital continued for the 7 consecutive night or twos. charlotte dimansky brings us the latest comfortably see how much coma noise into play. see, but the smoke you can see behind me know it's coming from the tear gas canisters that we have seen so many times over the last 3 nights. no. instead, the protest is building a fire right outside of the parliament to we have seen thought to a fine works. we have seen, saw fewer people throwing gloss vocals and studies towards the police. and i saw few protest is as you look around me,

i'll see you then we've seen over the last few nights and was five's interesting isn't this comes on the same day. we have seen the government in georgia, direct crackdowns on the opposition party. lead is also on and use with a range taking place, not just it offices, but also individuals, homes, and executives from georgia dream. the really multi saying that some 30 percent of those have been involved in the process of the last week are actually from a note from georgia. let me just say i'm a very serious being arrested. we know that he'll position policy the united nations and they had their offices in the last 2 hours. they have been accused of offense losing a possible western powers, trying to own with rose governments of georgia. we've also had the founder of

little physicians, seeing that we're seeing a rush this, this is a tv that was those previously funding fine. george source is one thing the society foundation, how is that also had one of the members of us who grew different. he moved with his being arrested as well. and just in the last few days, he was giving an incident the stage, a revolution here in georgia, similar to what happened in ukraine was amazing to let's just get a listen and take a play about 4 documents. if it is not necessary for a revolution to happen directly in front of the parliament in ukraine, it happened in freedom square. this fight is not specifically designated to occur in front of the parliament. as i mentioned, one of the methods of violence was seen from the process is this use of fireworks directing them towards the police lines following the noise off the noise. and as a result of that, now we have this on firewood a band from sales to jeff. we also understand the protective gear that's being used

by the 1st test is to be able to get close to the police and fire off those fireworks has also been signed and used on a position move. when politicians have seen accused of supplying those to protest. this one for my m p here in georgia, hasn't mrs. that is the case a trone of who's on there is no problem. we have a very good future fireworks items. they were all for the protest, but they have so many lasers. they have so much equipment to do this. police force is an anti constitutive police force. i am the organizer and i am the entrepreneur of these actions. it is an action of the people. meanwhile, george's pro, the president, has criticized the ban of the sale of fireworks and of safety. did the ruling party has closed down shop, selling protective gas masks, protective goggles and helmets, leaving peaceful protesters deprived of their elementary protection. a blatant

violation of the right to protest and an attack on private property. she is refusing to step down from her time you as president in the next 3 weeks. phil, north acknowledging not ruling that came just on tuesday, but the constitutional closing georgia that the elections that took place in october were free and fed, and they were won by the current rolling policies, georgia dream. this is the 7th noise of protest since georgia. dream said it was hosting since to, to the union f, as a sentient until 2028. the georgia, the interior ministry has released footage from offices offices of opposition parties showing molotov cocktails, weaponized, fireworks, and other evidence seized during the rates. are investigating charges group violence was organized and the holly opposition party leader has been detained in the you. politicians have called the georgia and government actions

a crackdown on democracy and washington as promised. retaliatory sanctions, those who undermine democratic processes or institutions in georgia, including those who suppress george and citizens right to freedom of peaceful assembly. an expression will be held to account. in addition to continuing our previously announced comprehensive review of bilateral cooperation, the united states is now preparing to use the tools at our disposal, including additional sanctions. are they are we spoke to the head of this center for problems of globalization. alexander tasha, he shared his take on why western states are so keen to support the georgia not positions for and diplomatic missions in georgia, european missions, the american and british embassies. they all supporting the protest of because the plan to, to, and georgia into an instrument of influence against russia on its southern borders has been supported. this has been the goal of the last 2 years, but it was impossible to achieve it. they realized that georgia will no longer play

the role of a pool, and that can be sacrificed in the big game against russia. so they chose to support the opposition public organizations that are anti government in every possible way . they chose to support the missiles that georgia is ready to be accepted into the european union through the same time, claiming that all government straight off the european tough and so on and so forth, which is. and that's when the pressure started open interference in the internal affairs of georgia from e you, representation. they openly criticize the actions of the georgia and government, which they did not like made the threatening statements, the ambassadors of a number of european states. indeed, there isn't much it so just to mention the us and rushes and curse can read and tact of artillery combined with air forces or been used to push and creating and troops out of the area they've been occupied since their invasion in august over the past day alone, moscow says jeff has lost at least 280 men and 5 military vehicles there

across in don bass. the russian military has taken more than 80 settlements since autumn. most of them are in the don't that score a public work had his troops have been struggling to hold grounds. the russian offensive has seen that the most territory liberate the baron. since 2022, moscow's forces are now less than 20 kilometers from the western and border of the don't ask republic. i'm just over the past day, more than a dozen counter offensive attempts by caps troops have been repelled, resulting in over a 1000 losses, according to moscow, as well as rest and forces deadly advance. on the front lines use secretary of state antony blinking has confirmed another $725000000.00 in military aid to ukraine. all this comes as the countries for civilization efforts, so no sign of loading up washington's tops diplomat warranty cab. it had some tough choices to make about recruitment policy and says, building up its forces is a key condition for ongoing us supports even with the, the money, even with the,

the munitions that has to be people on the, on the front lines to deal with the russian aggression ukraine has hard decisions to make about further mobilization. but these are necessary decisions. we have a commitment though, for every person, every soldier that ukraine mobilizes, we're committed to making sure that they have the training and the equipment they need to effectively defend the country. so the current and upcoming us administrations differ on ukraine was donald trump's team for quarterly considering 3 strategies to follow through on his campaign floods. the end of the war one proposes freezing the conflict along the current front lines and suspending ukraine's accession to nato. or the vice president elect suggest establishing a demilitarized zone using existing combat area, also exploding and made a bit trickier. and there is tom's former intelligence chief whose plan calls for

creation of autonomy is those in the east of the country. again without membership . the crane however, is this. the only option is to become part of the military block. we can visit the only real guarantee of security for ukraine as well as a deterrent due for that rushing aggression against the grades and other states is ukraine's full membership in nato. we will not accept any alternative, sorry, gets all substitutions, but ukraine's full membership in nato. the accession remains that concern, though lamond quoted an unnamed western diplomat same some of the blocks countries including the us. consider the issue a difficult one, and the former nato secretary general against oldenburg always seem to find excuses to delay cabs admission to the alliance. and that is a long term perspective. what is that? and what is the issue now is to ensure that you claim to be assessed on an inbound

independence station. and therefore, we need to support your wife at the long timeline to bring in ukraine. you've talked about a 10 year window. why is it 10 years versus maybe one or 2 or 3 years since they're facing war? well, no one else. so the expected 10 years both about but it's almost as it is a very serious issue to bring in ukraine because a credit is not a contract at or you can, has been attacked by a blood rush. all. so the most important thing we, we should do is to step up our support to create and to ensure that you can provide us as a precondition for an future membership for your waste, beth and john laira from the american communist party who says nato would rather use ukraine as a marketing ship and accomplished with russia, then bring it in to the alliance. i think that's europe, nieto, united states, all understand that they are not ready for a full blown war with russia. we know that in united states in the u. k. in

france, that there are significant economic, political, and logistical challenges for actually fighting a direct war with the russian federation. and we've seen a tax from united states in particular over the course of the last decade or 2 that are shied away from direct intervention. things that ukraine is use as a marketing tool, basically for nato, to continue to try to intimidate and exert some leverage over the russian federation. this has been a time of extreme economic hardship for many in the united states in particular, and to see hundreds of billions of dollars flow to this efforts that's only resulted in getting thousands of ukrainians. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians killed and severely wounded. the former bangladesh, a prime minister, shaken, seen a resigns in august and during violent anti government protests. the exiled leader

has now accused her successors of committing genocide against religious minorities, including hindus. today i am being accused of genocide. in reality, unice has been involved in genocide, in a meticulously designed manner. the most minds, the student coordinators and eunice, all behind this genocide, hindus, buddhists, christians, no one has been sped. 11 churches have been destroyed, temples and buddhist shrines. have been broken when the hindus protested, the escondido was arrested. what is this persecution of minorities for? why are they being ruthlessly persecuted and attacked? people no longer have the right to justice. the hello is cross live now to our to correspondent runs and sharma russian. what kind of persecution is the former bangladesh of p? i'm referring to that you have to store more bundle these parameters to shake and

see now they're essentially mounting a acquisitions against the engine government and bond with these saying that they are responsible for a legit persecution of minority in box. that'd be huge. let me give you a bit of context and understanding why and with this statement is coming from. she could see 9 bonded, these was always seen as somebody who had it seems in the middle of the shed. and she had moved to the portal, but mine archie, ridiculously that you knew of minorities in bundle dish or we won. she left the country in august to see a lead seems deployed full don't have on his temples as well as minorities hughes. again, particularly coming, going to put a jack this is something that the engine chief law as the model of the government and mama eunice himself acknowledged with me when he took to follow. while he said that the minorities involved with the use of being that, that he made

a distinction that he said that those up politically, most of we do the data but not religiously. what, what are we to the tax, and that's what the minorities that default, and that's what she cuz you know, steve them and also differs from what the bottom of these engine government is trying to project fit. in fact, ever since the all has the now left the country, the big on the reports, we've seen several reports so far, many, many minorities not just seen those but, but this questions come under attack and the situation the from august to now hasn't really changed and now the interim government in bond with the she has also gone on to see that the indian government has been trying to make a political issue, internal, political issue out of everything that has been going on in terms of these the india is ruling elite,

is engaging in divisive politics and anti bangladesh rhetoric, the b j. b is attempting to turn bangladesh into an internal political issue or india. if this happens, it will be detrimental to india's domestic politics and t, bangladesh, and anti muslim politics will not serve india's national interest or contribute to its unity. therefore, we call on india to cease the false propaganda against bangladesh and uphold harmony and respect for democracy. now wanted to show that the indian government has without several statements. so to protect minorities, particularly he knows in bottom to these. but that has done that after several incidents that we've been seeing since august on for the inbound may be several accounts. is that a minorities and engines, prosecution of samples, religious this is coming under attack. so also remember recently a he was

a need to know whether it's from a 10 full basically was arrested and sat on the defamation for the legibly insulting the bonds of the she flag that led to island still fast in among the days, but also in india. on the other side of the board also invested in gardens. so of several of those um, in the villages need as well uh, the health pool just against the rest of the can do most involved with these the march towards a bond with these border this from the west single side in india. so so far is the relationship between india and bonded. this is off, george mama june is the engine chief over the government in the bottom of the shop . i do go, well, we don't see the relationship between the both countries. the starting. it's also important dimensions held that jobs.
