5:03 am
no explosion happened at 610 a little because i ran up and saw a 2 people lying there. i called the emergency services and what the people didn't show any signs of life as long as you have some glass was blown out on the 1st that goes to the 2nd and 3rd floor. as a result of this explosion, it good acute e last, russian legion in general, of the russian on school says and his assistant, why code on the left was the head of the russian chemical protection for says i'm, he was a pointed back in 2017 a russian investigative committee house opened a criminal case over the mother of the to russian serviceman and investigating this as a terrorist act. we're also seeing information start collating in the western media with the media outlets such as politicos, the wall street journal t vs. news. i'm the guardian, i will citing ukrainian security sol says and reporting that ukraine was. in fact, behind the kidding of kerry left his assistant. the ukrainian security services are
5:04 am
actually behind this attack and didn't 5 carry out this so called a special authoration, ukrainian media outlets themselves, so also claiming that the country security services are in fact behind this attack and a western john left julian rope. he also stated on acts fool, many known as twist to the to deal with was killed a may 20 hours off to the ukrainian prosecutor general, accused him of using technical a weapons. according to the investigator, as an explosive device designated near the entrance of the residential building, as again it's right behind me. the power of the explosive device was supposed to be $300.00 crowns of t and t. an emergency status is reported. that explosive device was settled remotely and reportedly the boma was somewhere nearby watching this explosion. um,
5:05 am
the operative reviewing all cctv cameras in the area and a last wave actually shafted windows on the east 10 apartment buildings what damage of residence said. balconies and windows were damaged and judging by the damage the explosive device might have had no destructive elements in it, in particular, metal boats. some residents also claimed the explosion was so strong that it shook the walls inside that house and uh, the explosion that will say close to the damage to the vehicles around in the area and medical services actually stayed, but cumulus and his assistant died. instance, the officer, the explosion happened. emergency services are still working at the c and you might be able to see them behind me and stop us, have inspected the area, stating that no other explosive devices were found. they used a software re vote uh to carry out these um inspections, and the stop
5:06 am
a route which has also inspected the calls in the area. uh the area of the explosion has been quoted all still and its shortly is a developing story. so we'll be keeping you updated on that right to our to correspond to uninstall sale, blah. the not anastasio. thank you. earlier i spoke with our to saskia taylor who explained why lieutenant general eguard carol off post. so much interest for ukraine of what i mean, most of that was obviously focusing on the crime scene itself. i'd like to talk a bit more about the mom himself, because uh, 2 adults is a face that i think many would recognize over the last twos, plus years. he's really been fronting the series of expos days of voicing incredibly disturbing information on allegations about the research and development of a nickel will set weapons which will be incredibly high level stuff involving foreign government agencies. so this material was widely seen as a sweat to these power full, full says that are engaged and really some of the data to us,
5:07 am
the most immoral type of political game that exist. and he's seen as a mom that who is really contributed to uncovering, you know, all of these code but accidents and so many that is his a t legacy. for many years, lieutenant general, eager to real off of the russian nbc protection troops has systematically with facts in hand, exposed the crimes of the anglo saxons. nato provocations with chemical weapons in syria, britain's manipulation of band, chemical substances and provocations in salisbury and amesbury, the deadly activities of american bio laboratories and ukraine, and much more, he worked fearlessly and did not hide behind backs for the motherland. for the truth, it is terrible news that ega kerry love head of the russian nbc protection troops has being assassinated. we worked closely with ega and a totally of age, as part of the parliamentary investigation into the activities of the united states by our laboratories and ukraine. and he provided our commission with invaluable
5:08 am
professional expert, i've done electrical assistance. the killers will be punished beyond any doubt and without mercy. and he said that i care a lot of space is one that many people would know. can you talk us through what he said over his career? well, that's all close to home with ukraine. simply put, his main thesis was that the pension was funding over to the board trees on ukrainian territory, but notice of biological weapons. what being researched and develops that he said he had an pull evidence to prevent pneumonia so so this, during the period of the special military operation through a russian service, men receive more than $20000.00 documents, reference an analytical materials and interviewed eye witnesses and participants in american military, biological programs, solution these materials confirmed the focus of the pentagon because of the creation of biological weapons components. and they're testing on the population of ukraine at the go use and other states along the perimeter of our borders. it was really what you thought there were lots that much of this was done in tandem with
5:09 am
nato allies in mania as well as most of the one thing i do want to expand to improve the claim that these 5 agents were capable of targeting specific ethnic groups the target, he said small to a living not just on russian targets, but also in format. so you get republics. and this was a actually occurred by bosses un ambassador. so he said that the disease research was focused on, on struct, on colorado. and she really decried this as the kind of dog coast and most dangerous of full of all type of mass destruction. obviously that had the local ramos, of patients that we couldn't help. but highlight could of course move forward sitting and washington probably felt pretty safe. an ocean away. most depends. yeah, uncritical, absolutely confident that one of this one says on that said and supervised by the us, which would of course mean that washington was in bri each of various international treaties on the development on prohibition brought the of the chemical and biological weapons so further afield. any revelations where you create
5:10 am
a tons of power and use just one strand in a very intricate web thought, according to curriculum to involve drunk, full 100 facilities that spawning several confidence. i'm not sure what is what it really means we have at our disposal. documentary evidence of the state department's participation in the implementation of bio safety improvement programs since 2016 at this point in accordance with funding plans to at least $40000000.00 is provided to attract the various non profit and non governmental organizations to participate in this program alone, the documents demonstrate the active participation of the us state department in bio programs in foreign countries on those as well as washington's drive to involve 3rd parties to conceal customers. and the goals of ongoing research abroad in special attention is paid to the countries of the middle east, iraq young and jordan, south east asia, indonesia in the philippines, africa, kenya, morocco and uganda. given that the united states is unable to control its own biological
5:11 am
facilities, the activities of american laboratories around the world are a constant source of biohazard solution. first and foremost, from the populations of the countries where they are based. well, one aspect i just want to develop briefly here, a claim that most go had it up, it's disposal leaked pentagon documents that showed that washington was actually moving. it's via research not to africa, the t all c, c hourly. and you can't cover in south africa. what we mentioned as was the fact that apparently in trends it was human tissue and blood samples. now the us of course, the noise and one of the some thoughts. what do we know? we know that victoria and you don't have self has admitted to yes these, these a labs success plus r s k junior, who have called has been not tapped by incoming president. donald trump, to lead the department of health and human services confirmed. but yes, these facilities exist and yes, they do protest bond meant a treat great watson very well. let's talk about the timing of all of this. it's,
5:12 am
it's all very suspect among many things. well, i mean, i think we do have to mentioned that to you plus collab state, but this is taking place in foxley, only yesterday. you quite in security subs says, formerly to clad treat of a suspect in a case focusing on most of those elected use of chemical weapons or in the military . it's now russia has dismissed these claims as baseless and said that the weapons in question would destroyed back in 2017 spots less than 24 hours later on. cleared off is that uh secondly, big picture. he has the most is a mounting. even mainstream media is now having to admit that russian troops are fonts and foster may have it over 2 years. because conviction was a failure. on his winding down, the bite administration has less than a month left for on a month. and as it takes its dying breasts, it seems to just be pressing and holding on the escalation pots, it whether that is a proving long range strike statement of russian territory web that's i'm picking
5:13 am
up the aid, the kids, whether that is of still teasing kids, admission to nato, it seems that this one was trying to go to most go into some kind of reaction while it's still count, because trump will be back in the oval office, come january and he is poking all the things that are cool submitted for industrial complex just doesn't want to hear territorial concessions, no more, a piece of negotiation, no nato. so i really do think that everything we see paying out now and also in the coming weeks has to absolutely be framed in that context. we can cross now to g, a political specialist, greg simon's greg. good. have you on the program with us? oh, there are numerous reports, citing sources and ukrainian intelligence that you have is behind this assassination. what are your thoughts on that? how would care be able to pull something like this off in moscow? it was cause interesting because usually uh, cube was a little bit more cautious on announcing the deal so starkly. you might have one or
5:14 am
2 people from the key of rising, which blowing to the site. i mean like with the, the, the courage bridge don't mean that they belong to them, like denied it and then was pro, even the, this time the really exciting it. so i think the role of a, a she's a play in this is perhaps one of the piping pieces of the potential gain, but it's which that might play off from here on the general has been a major voice of the russian on forces highlighting what the foreign ministry calls the crimes of anglo saxons and the nato state publications using chemical weapons with that history. how do you think the west is going to react to this? and i think they'll be quietly celebrating because he explains a number all things which the width doesn't like having the payments. probably just because it shows you some people who just the bed. i suggest
5:15 am
the most um the trying to find these things and, and in this general ultimately showed lots of walls low. so i mean this, this kind of thing is definitely inconvenient. so i mean the, this assess the nation is definitely convenient. yeah. the day before this assassination that you're creating and security service, the kids general carol live of ordering the use of chemical weapons against ukrainian troops. and now here we are less than 24 hours later and he's been assassinated. what do you make of that timing? well, i mean is quite ignoring the logic of it because i mean make sure loved was the kid of the writing and logical chemical, biological defense troops. a so not cool offensive, but deep in some purposes. so if anyone was given orders to use chemical weapons,
5:16 am
that would not be him. so they tried to come up with a plausible excuse of what would justify directions which are absolutely non justifiable. so this isn't the 1st incident, of course, where explosive devices have been used inside russia. a well known writer as an example, who advocated advocated for defending the dumbass survived. a car explosion that was arranged by ukrainian intelligence and moscow laid the blame on tia for orchestrating the assassination of journalists. daria do gonna certainly a deadly trend. do you expect this to continue possibly escalates? as we see you cranes lost as mounts up on the battlefield. well, honestly, lives as well as speculation of who was what i say in a number of possible avenues. and why the secure is one that
5:17 am
is the 6 positions were inconvenient and were becoming a liability of a whole of the the i'm the hams type, it's all the findings and the angle i will be the us and they by do tie in particular. so there is one full of way explanation. a 2nd one is that if you are planning to launch your on the right, the logical chemical of biological would take on the russian federation. the 1st thing you would do is try to take out the leadership. all that organization responsible for biasing such an action of the food, a potential excuse would be, this is one of us take talk volume and switch the ukrainians. love if he likes the wall and potentially russia reacts. and this has been
5:18 am
characterized as an artist. uh uh, use of uh too much force against them. uh, making the, well, the vitamins being going to give us an see last dimension explaining the was. so the problem cannot do what the rhetoric please is sitting out to do to mike, please. uh, to january the 20th, the width is an old direction as the president of the united states. yeah, great. that leads into my next question in terms of um, either how could this likely escalate the, this situation? because we've seen a russia respond to the western governments, green lighting ukrainian strikes with their long range missiles, deep interest. so with the um, its newest hypersonic missile. how do you expect that russia to respond? and what does this likely mean for the conflict? well, i mean the, i mean, russian needs the risk volume because such things from the guy amounts of the boys because to leave it to go on,
5:19 am
oxygen is the green light such x of terrorism in the future. i would guess that a couple of possible actions to selectively targets ukrainian leadership positions like the political and military and the key of writing chain as a, as one possible response. what see through the increase of the tax on the you finding in the infrastructure which supports the continued war a foot, which is an extreme distress at the limits. blanking. yeah. in terms of bringing the ukrainian conflict into and, and you mentioned the incoming us president elect donald trump, who of course he, it, his main campaign promise was to end the war in ukraine. and, and i know he's been proposed by his advisors with a number of possible um options. i don't know if any of them actually take into
5:20 am
account rushes side of things, but do you expect to all attempt to actually be able to make a difference and bring about peace once he becomes president as well? i think this is the brakes is the uh of this uh, liberal global deliver order, and that'd be dollars. i mean, what else would you go to the trouble that the bought in administration, in which the different vessel states have gone to escalate? you find what oscar they use. the election was lost by the democrats and i've been, but the only reason you would do that is out of sheer desperation, that you do not want them to do a couple assessing knowledge. he probably doesn't have a clue what the russian position is and to him, shall we say those intellectually and intellectually challenged individuals such as
5:21 am
go around them. i mean, in this one, count, understanding the russian position. so, i mean, it's an open book. it doesn't mean if we remember that initially it was donald trump, he's the ukrainians in the 1st place against russia. all right, we're going to leave it there. greg simon's independent j. a political specialist to greg. thank you. thank you. all right, let's uh, get more on this now from research follows the national defense university of malaysia mohammed ms on awesome mohammed. good to have you on the program with us. uh, i want to ask you what i asked my last guess to greg simons. and in terms of a reports that the, the s b u, you trained security service has been claimed. responsibility for the assassination of greg said it was a surprise that they would be so quick to claim responsibility that i'd like to hear your thoughts on that. yeah, um i would like to uh, thank you for the section. okay. um this is very interesting. um, progress in, in,
5:22 am
in the conflict it's uh, between ukrainian russia which is uh, southern lead to see uh ukraine. uh and meet that the commit to such a tech, even though we do have a fuel, so glo, public mission and rushes said it, it was done by ukraine, for example, the, the killing off dina in 2002. and also letting that those keep in 2023 and no imprinted before we got to get anything here have been general cleaning . they have been killed. we just uh for the 1st time i think uh you agree and we just s b u, um uh, openly admit that the company uh, such as tech and then i think this is a very interesting one uh in, in, in that region. and it could be, uh, will be due and at a spectrum of uh, conflict between, especially last year in ukraine. yep. yeah. and in terms of,
5:23 am
of what you've just said, there are rushes. the security council deputy chairman dmitri method of announced that the terror attacks of shev carried out the assassination to justify its existence to its western patrons and to prolong the war. um, can you expand on that your thoughts on the motives behind the killings? yeah, yeah, i think you very much actually i really want to touch on on terrorism act. yeah. so actually, um, you know, feel like a good idea of categories impact is a one of them. he says to what we call it a and at tech to uh to people, especially cbs and and people and it didn't happen. and even though it been received that uh the dcs called me all 3 being a like a bones, all white plains are less white, but it is. and, and what we call it as a terrorism act. and 2nd loan, i'm all of the terrorism ag,
5:24 am
they have so called a the political ident behind it. so what be one to a q 50. and when did you want to be like a no one kingdom, all great. there are countries or something like that. and also we can see the defect and also we just uh to q and to disrupt and disruption in whatsoever. so all of these kind of subtract video actually have been done by many, ah, but these old many a group in the will. and also in been done by s b o as well as instead of getting in many countries. so we have these kind of a break to the end. it is clearly an act of batteries. so it is like a, a, and i didn't know which is specifically done to throw a war as you see in the it's the, they don't want it to be sent over with you. so we need to shut the time.
5:25 am
and we can see in the, in many a part of the was actually in, in any conflicts. so the act of getting, especially those who brought good for a bees or to do like a, to do some tools or what. so what is subject to be kept because some parties of that kind of conflict they do, they don't want you to to be hip. and because i really want to assess these, i do the biggest enemy plus it, then country goes to thing and bias each piece because they don't one piece the of the have a bes, so they couldn't be cut and get the benefit from what is happening. so what they want is just to create and problem the war. and finally, the with getting something for me. yeah. yeah, the russian investigative committee would agree with you that this is an act of terrorism as they are now treating this as a terror attack. what are your thoughts on this type of tactics that target
5:26 am
individuals in such a way beyond the battle field? of course. yeah, this was a target of assassination, but it took place on a um, a busy moscow street outside of apartment were, were many people let me know. yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. yeah. you're absolutely right. yeah, it's me. and i saw the train is supposed to be when. busy israel, um they agreed to call me sounds like a to the devices of them. the implant the in, in if you remember in oki doki in page you're all right and know in russia we're just in, in the electronics quote the. so this is what we call it, a new train of terrorism x. so which is the start to like a to, to go or to, to migrate to the new phase of launching. so book batteries of act. so it just not only focusing on like, uh, what we call the tradition of, um, kind of war wolfy,
5:27 am
but no, the goal for beyond that, so good se, mexico will be regular will thing. and yet absolutely. it is a like a, an act of terrorism, and we can see the use of these devices. we're going to be talking about the electric split that you use by mass, people see medians. and it can blew any with any places. so you just imagine if, if the devices have blue and this is simple market at a more or the width might get things like that. so the numbers of casualty will be higher. so he said we, we cannot tolerate with these kind of a, with the it is done by, by s b o or by any, by piecing these will. but it is clearly the act of terrorism and we should, we should classy classified this group or this act as a categories of act. yeah. all right, we're gonna live with our research fellow at the national defense university of malaysia mohammed, amazon. awesome, awesome mohammed. thank you. a thank you very much. and before we go,
5:28 am
