5:04 pm
but was concerned the news headlines would not focus on the quote war between the believers and the disbelievers and quote, actually pointed out as well as the new orleans terrace suspect was shot dead up the same, but just to was then show. so didn't jip are what, what's known up items. well, what we know about him at the moment is that he was born in texas. he stubs in the us army. he's you saw me last year and he served in the army searching. he is, and he continued as the army reserve into a 2020 and he was mostly deployed to i've got to sound between 2009 to 2010, and he left active duty in 2015. and then you know, well, we also noticed that the ice has black flags was found into balls. vehicle during the call, roaming officials actually revealed that he converted to a slum just of last year and that he may have been radicalized online. according to
5:05 pm
to the us media reports. the suspects was previously actually awarded a label born terrorism metal for his service in afghanistan. he, he also was known to have loved them as a real estate agent and as a corporate just insulted. but you know, in v to in videos, but he's posted online on, on youtube. he claims that his military experience actually helped him in his career. and that's what i'm so i'm born and raised in beaumont, texas, and now live in houston. and i've been here all my life with the exception of travelling for the military, where i speak to use as a human resources specialist. and i teach specialist. well, we're at the meaning of great service and what it means to be responsive and take everything seriously dining i's and cross and tease to make sure that things go off without a hitch. well, let me the state's turn to the las vegas at tesla cyber a truck explosion which killed the driver. a local sheriff has been asked about the
5:06 pm
pardon, similarities at with the new orleans terror attack. so we can take a listen to his response and i'll talk to you after that. so the question is, is, are we working to rule in or rule out any connections to the new orleans of it? and the answer to that is, every typically that comes in every piece of evidence that comes in, we don't discount it, we work it through it. you know, it's a interesting thing during these kinds of investigations that if these turned out to be fully similarities, very strange similarities to have. and so we're not prepared to rule in or rule out anything at this point. that was intriguing at the end there, the strain similarities part was that what might be implying there, i think we should give a little bit of the background stuff that uh the explosion of the test with cyber turn did in fact happened in las vegas and just a few hours off to the call ramming in new orleans. um 7 people was injured as a result and one was dead. and according to the las vegas police, from what we've just had,

5:08 pm
know, and the suspect is a side to 7 year old matthew, licensed by the from colorado springs and i know 100 percent confirmation that it was him in the copy of. i to obtain a confirmation is obviously need to do to his for the being, but beyond recognition. but you know, she is the subject of interest at the moment, nor inforcement officials will say, stated that the individual has sustained a gunshot wound in his head prior to i see that's amazing the vehicle. but because they have gone was found at his feet under. yeah, it's a inside the car, but a what we will say no, not based concerned that he was so low in the vehicle that we've been hearing about in terms of what happened in new orleans. the, the most of us behind what that may have at being involved there. what about in las vegas? what's known in terms of that at the moment, official make, we don't know about the motivation. motivation is carly unknown,
5:09 pm
but lower enforcements actually following needs both domestically and internationally, but no information that the to that the las vegas saw specs to is there is no information about his connections to any terrorist organizations in the world of moment. but because it's not rude out including that, but you know, that may be terrorist links out that, but we don't have that information just of yet. but you know, there are 2 interesting things to mention here as well. the 1st one is that the las vegas, i'm going to be talking about the las vegas. so send me the 1st thing is that i'm one of his social media platforms as a photo or that was a photo of him wearing a, a t shirts with ukranian nazi symbol on that. and also he recently used his links to an account to reply to contract opportunities in ukraine. silversmith. it's an interesting and developing story solutions that are in

training. indeed. while former seattle is lori johnson suggests there may be more to both deadly incidents on the authorities. are that thing hard? on the one hand, we like to proclaim that isis is this great villain. and yes, isis has carried out her rhetoric attacks around the world. so you have to buy my old outfit, the c i a is been dealing with the funding of arming them, a quick thing that sold this, this kind of blow back. it's like it's, it's trotted out when it's convenient to say all we've got to do it rally against isis. for god's sakes quit we're, we're sending the money and the weapons were trained in these cats. and then we get surprised when they all, some of them get to decide to turn on and attack us. i am actually beginning to think more more that this whole ice, this thing is a big, shiny object to distract from what's really going on. because right now, part of the narrative in the us media is all the so we've got to tighten up at the border security. the 2 events, the one this one in new orleans,
5:11 pm
and the one in las vegas were done by a one of former army guy and one and active duty army person. so, you know, the problems not from outside the problems from here with in the united states. and i cannot rule out the possibility that some of this is being staged in order to generate panic. even come up with a pretext, say, oh my god, we can't go forward with the united ration because of all this terrorism. i, it just, you know, i, i've, i've seen it enough over the, you know, 35 years that i've been involved with this. then all of these initial reports that come out, there's always stuff this being kept back. we're not getting the full picture, the something that the smell something not right about this. something else we're across today. the russian embassy in australia has hit it at a raleigh held in vienna, commemorating the life from the deeds of infamous you printing enough to

collaborate or step in monday or nothing but discussed is caused by the outburst of a handful of ukrainian nationalists who settled in austria and decided on january 1st to celebrate the birthday of hitler's accomplice, the war criminal step on bendara in the center of vienna. again, we strongly condemn the holding of even such a marginal action with the connivance of the local authorities. the nazi sabbath looks especially blasphemous in vienna, in the year of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of austria from fascism. summer rallies were also held in the western ukrainian city of live, all hundreds were seeing, carrying torches, and calling from the era here, o. p of made his birthday january 1st and national holiday back in 2018. the nazi cooperate her lead ukrainian nationalist during world war 2, organizing mass murders of ethnic jews, poles, and proves soviet ukrainians. the head of a v
5:13 pm
n a base do politics think tank to dark. see, the west prefers to turn a blind eye to such marches because the ravens against moscow the wherever identity of the current austrian states actually derives from the call ups of national socialism. and from preventing the margins of, um, not susan manufacturers and in the future. and when it comes to its own citizens, austria is actually very strict about all these laws. but of course, if it's about real nazis and real fashion, who take the streets in australia, then of course the austin police is doing nothing. and um, also, or government is doing nothing because these people seem to be, of course, in the eyes of deals for governments. the good fashion seems to be actually supporting the costs of the west of the united states and of the european union in
5:14 pm
the wall for ukraine. and i think does this trust the a good example for the double standards of the west and especially of the political high populace view of deals through the government. when it comes to the sol called on fights against the ex, from is now i want to show you this as well. following the raleigh level of the city public decorations where funds analyzed. a 19 year old mine was film cutting the power cables of a large little menorah. it was later detained by local police. we got reaction from holiday journalism. former idea of them are, you actually fall through the the how much we split it in the movie landscape. and it keeps saying all the time, no, not see the new claim. well, no, it's not saving you grace. and you can see them walking on the street. you know, the somehow you claimed let these people come up on the street, you know,

5:16 pm
rushes border region of kursk, which once again has been shown by keeps forces. russian authority say at least one person was injured in what moscow is calling a terror attack or to correspond to remind cost rough can tell us more of the crate in military continue targeting civilians during this a new year. holidays in curse region, according to the local governor and all the footage that we 5 see miss all strikes took place and as a result, civilian infrastructure. apartment buildings were targeted and were damaged as well as result. one person employee, also local cultural center, received a concussion, and she's currently being treated at the hospital. mind you, a cultural center in a rush is a place for a concert. it's a place for extra curricular activities for a school, kids for adults. and of course, the gloves for the elderly as well. now,
5:17 pm
several apartment buildings were all windows and those apartment buildings were shattered as well. and generally there was just function in a civilian area is not according to the local governor and the gas pipeline was damaged. there as well, however, he said it would have been fixed within hours of the strikes as a whole emergency services are working on the scene and trying to help people out. so, so far we have one person who received the concussion, but elsewhere in the special ministry operation, like right here, for example. and then as people people's republic, on the 1st of january, january, the very 1st of the year, at least 5 people, 5 civilians, 3 women and 2 men were warranted as a result of ukrainian artillery strikes. now generally here the names people's republic, ukrainian drones and artillery dislikes are occurring occurring on
5:18 pm
a daily basis. and we are hearing about civilian casualties on a daily basis as well. and nevertheless, live here continues or people are still hoping that this will soon come to an end of what it is indeed a new year. um with it. more problems for europe to tackle ukraine has refused to prolong a 5 year gas trends. that agreement, with most of the move is pretty big through to the on popular with several e u countries who have not been cut off from affordable gas. the slovak prime minister sees the move will damage the entire block, and those even threaten key would sanctions. for the day of the gc, throughout the date, on the 1st day of 2025, the lensky began to deliberately damage. slovak is public finances and harm the entire european union. only the united states will benefit from zelinski is decision with increased gas imports into europe. i don't know,
5:19 pm
so we are ready to negotiate and agree collectively to stop the supply of electricity and a significant reduction in age of citizens of ukraine or on the territory of the slovak republic when he is the only alternative for sovereign slovakia. and it is to resume transit, the more to demand compensation mechanism. stuff is to make up for the loss of almost 500000000 euros in public finance. it doesn't capital, he didn't have that on a scale. european countries such as romania austrian, italy had continued to receive rushing, dallas via ukraine after the conflict begun. still vakio and will dover are expected. however, to search for the most from the gas flow closure as russian supplies cover line 60 percent of their demand. ukraine had repeatedly threatened to end the transit deal with the russian president saying he of this decision was only published in you citizens. while some european states warranty, praying against the move, the polish foreign minister, actively support who did spend billions building nord stream to
5:20 pm
circumvent ukraine and blackmail eastern europe with the threat of cutting off gas supplies. today ukraine cut off his ability to export gas, direct to the e u. another victory after the enlargement of nato by finland and sweden, as well as some celebrate others, are already feeling the pinch. the break away eastern european region of tons new straw has been forced to cut off hot water supplies with medical sites being the only public facilities left with he thinks, while in germany, the national energy regulator has erred citizens to save gas as consumption, spikes jus to the winter weather for austrian foreign minister car in can i saw, spoke to r t. she say is the decision is likely to harm your plan itself? the ukraine is losing $1000000000.00 of transit fees. is quite some money for a country that has not much other forms of income. for the more, of course, all the ukraine was benefiting from this russian important guess and was
5:21 pm
a very fred, sean energy infrastructure, which has been suffering for all kinds of reasons. i think the ukranian population will be one of 2 weeks thames. i'm not sure why that. what is going on is now it's pure national decision by the premiums. maybe there's some pushed by washington saying we want to make sure that the russians simply doubled on any money uh on the, on the german austin market. i don't think that it's a decision that is purely motivated by domestic ukrainian motivation. this time, it will not be an interruption, just such a this week that it's an interruption of books. and it should say our research, i was a 5 manish we will handle it. no need to announce. but the problem is, is we're not using that because we have
5:22 pm
a clover strive for buying allen sheet, which comes from those america which comes cars, countries. but they are customers which pay maybe better prices and uh, yeah, off your pin customers who with used to having long term contract, which gave them as sorts of stability. and now this, you're paying customers have to do something, extend fights on a daily weekly basis for contracts on the spot market. so for them, it's a different situation. and even so, a lot of people have got to task, but that's because it was announced to want to go. i think the reality with to be not easy to handle. russia was a reliable product in the ends before i should the soviet union, which started to enter into this long term contract, stating back to 1968. so nearly 60 years of continues long term. so like this
5:23 pm
5, anything does need to happen in the last 6 years. well, there was a reliable, affordable, natural gas flowing through the pipeline. and now when it's cut, whether it's mozambique, whether it's buying gas from jerry or anywhere you name it, you have, it will have either to political or economic or other issues. so every time you go, can you take your contract? you have to dispose of the same thing that contracts might be disclosed also. um, you know that the short notice because it's the goal with stock market and it's not long term supplies. israel has confirmed, it's a violation of a cease fire with neighboring lebanon. that's how parameters of explosions inside the country began circulating on social media. the idea of claims to have targeted as well as miss launchers in southern and have
5:24 pm
it on. israel said it was forced to, i talk to the regular lebanese army, failed to neutralize have rockets despite an id request. is there a lobby? it continues to owner. the november cease fire deal with cars, bella, but whole swiftly destroy any emerging threats to its national security. there's been no immediate comment from the last year of the war between the idea of 5. because paula saw thousands killed and leveled on. it came as part of israel's regional assault on allies of a run with the leaders of from us and his bolus austin. and here's your middle east correspondent, maria florida. with a recap on the regions cycle of finance. the israel's policy of whoever hurts us will be heard back, has driven invasions and bombardments, especially in the last year, but in 2024. these doctrine reached new heights with a series of illuminations of some of the country's most formidable foes. so what exactly has israel managed to achieve, and how has the world reacted?
5:25 pm
one of the biggest take downs was his bottom, a leader, assigning us wrong, a sworn enemy of israel for decades. in a dramatic strike, the idea of obliterated his bunker in the lebanese capital b route, the world's reaction was muted. many governments remained silent while some even described the assassination as justified. but the cost of the strike went far beyond ms rela, himself, as many as $300.00 civilians, repulsively lost their lives in the attack. collateral damage neither is roll. no, the west seemed eager to address outrage erupt. it's from iran, took the iraq seed way of russia garza and then we strongly condemn yet another political murder committed by israel. this violent action is fraud with even greater dramatic consequences for 11 on and the entire middle east. the israeli side could not help but be aware of this danger, but took such a step,
5:26 pm
the murder of lebanese citizens, which will almost inevitably provoke a new search of violence level and the lebanese people of the new targets of israel is policy of genocide, occupation, and invasion which it has been pursuing since 7th october 2023. design is entity confirms once again, through this despicable aggression, its barbarism and wanton, disregard for all international standards and laws. the syrian people have never forgotten how send us through all a support prime minister netanyahu describing him as nope, just another terrorist. but the terrorist is really officials held. he's the, it has a significant step toward achieving the country's strategic goals sooner than the smaller. the elimination of nicer, rolla is a necessary condition indicating the objectives we have sent him, returning the residence of the north to safely to their homes and changing the balance of power in the region for years. as long as no serrato was alive,
5:27 pm
he would have quickly rebuilt the capabilities we took from hezbollah, with hostages still held in gaza and thousands of his really residents unable to return home safely. the question lose, was it truly at justified death? how most political leader is smiled, honey was also a prime target is ro office treyjen. he's assassination during his visit to, to iran for the reading, president's integration, a smuggled explosive device that on a type in the guest house killing hernia and his body guard 5 months later is ro officially claims responsibility for this and all the high profile associations. volley and the remote to come by this afternoon and we will strike who's the strategic infrastructure, decapitated leadership just as we did to honey, a sin. why? and those are all a into ron, gaza, lebanon. we will do and who data and some of the killing
5:28 pm
of gas of base 10 mosley there. yeah. here seen wire that israel's defense. but as to boasted about grab headlines and not just for how it happened. idea of soldiers eliminated him in southern gaza, but the twist. his death was accidental, confirmed only later or through the dental and dna tests in wires and came with dramatic visuals. the idea of released drone photos of his final moments showing a man who forwards to the bitter end for his support or is it turn him pain to a symbol of defiance? and the global reaction, surprisingly quiet. iran was one of the few countries to condemn the killing when muslims look up to martyrs and war standing on the battlefield in combat attire and out in the open. not in a hide out facing the enemy. the spirit of resistance will be strengthened, but us was quick to back. the view of its t, l i in the middle is there is now the opportunity for the afternoon guys without
5:29 pm
how much in power and for a political settlement that provides a better future for israelis and palestinians alike. yeah, here seem, war was an insurmountable obstacle to achieving all those goals. that obstacle no longer exists, but much work remains before us, but it was always achievements and triumphs. one critical question remains. why have israel's 2 main war objectives the safe return of northern residence and the release of hostages still not been achieved? has as world truly secured as goals with these high stakes assassinations? or has it laid the ground work for the next wave of the conflict? where you have an option on all t repulsing from jerusalem on just some updates from northwest syria. finally, where is really, are a strikes have reportedly hit the military facilities in a level province flooded circulating on the line shows most of last lighting up the
5:30 pm
night sky, local media, se the idea of struct side for the fear of the city and the eastern part of the province, there's been no immediate comment from israel will get the latest all not at r, t dot com and plenty more besides from the news team and myself the the .
