[000:00:00;00] the, it's ours headline. stories must go with say, to ukrainian drill and strike on energy infrastructure in southern russia has been for ted hungry is called it, i'm a soul on its sovereignty of the compressor, its station in question supplies, gas to europe for the trip stream. pipeline spar hostage released steel between the from us and it's really, it's quote, very close, according to an r t source in the middle east watching the ongoing talks in cuts are doable. p jeep george, the rocket propelled grenade stores by russian plaza. way you see that in both the short, they small,

medium west and supplied almost personnel carriers as russian for say, secure the key hub of crude rock. yvonne archie becomes the 1st international news channel to report from the don't boss city with local speaking about the atrocities they say. p s for 6, the premier catching the news hour from today across the world. welcome to the most, going to our t introduction. hungry is foreign minister, has commented on ukraine's failed attack on energy infrastructure in southern russia. on monday, the targeted gas compressors, station supplies, and chris truck stream pipeline. peter c, r to say is the route isn't in dispensable parts of central europe. scouts supply chain of its security is thus power light important. a turkish current cable is

indispensable in the natural gas supply and hungry and central europe. security of energy supply is a sober and t matter. therefore, every action that threatens the security of all energy supply must be considered an attack against sovereignty. what we understand is a great deal of outrage and rightly so, because we understand the developments over the course of the past 72 hours suggests. ukraine is in a position to put europe on edge, especially by sabotaging it's sovereignty with respect to energy needs. and we understand that the ministry of defense of russia issued a statement monday suggesting that the ukrainians did carried on attack. and about 9 kamikaze drones were down as a result and the compress the station in the southern rush of the part which essentially ties into the black sea was attacked and received minor damage and nothing major was destroyed as a result of the attack operations were not disrupted this is according to the

energy company that is currently operating as the pipeline on the russian and, and we understand that at this current position are these current moments, there was a great deal. that is to be said, we understand the ministry of defense of russia issued a statement providing further detail. on january 11th, 2025. the key of regime in order to stop gas supplies to european countries, attempted an attack using 9 aircraft type. you avi's on the infrastructure of the russian compressor station in the village of geico, the zoo and the crowds know the region which supplies gas through the tucker stream pipeline. the statement provided by the ministry of defense came on monday, stating that the attack happened on saturday. of course, we understand the past 72 hours have been quite crucial, but that's not to say that russian authorities were not in contact with their turkish counterparts. because on sunday, the russian ministry of def, sorry, the ministry of foreign affairs issued a statement suggesting, uh, the russian form minister, 2nd lover of held a phone conversation met with the stark is counterpart. how come to done to disagree us as a modest pertaining to ukraine?

without saying anything to specifically keeping a bit vague, but more diplomatic said that the 2 sides of course, discussed the need to focus on preventive actions aimed at creating risks for energy security. and this energy security, of course, is not a matter that just pertains to russia or turkey, but many who of course, benefit from the church stream. we understand on the 1st of january, a 5 year deal between ukraine and russia came to an end. russia was adamant in 1st continuing that deal to ensure that energy flowed into europe, butts. ukraine, of course, oppose it. and we also recall the north stream attack in 2022, which rendered a great deal of russian exports to germany as well as the rest of the e. u, essentially meaningless. and this, of course, these 2 other alternatives, the blue stream and the church stream, both which run under the black sea serves not just russian or turkish and interests . but we understand that it also serves the interest of countries like hungry

serbia, boston, hartzog, avina, slovakia, as well as greece. this is a significance, a step. this is a significant development if we take all of this into context. and we also understand that there's been a great deal of opposition or at least the slow but prime minister has been quite vocal in his position suggesting that the ukrainian leader of let him is unless he is someone who rooms your begging and black mailing western nations in the hope of extracting more military assistance to find russia, we understand that much of the motives of course, is going to be under speculation. we understand rush as a choose ukraine of sabotaging these energy deals for the past few years. however, that is also in line with reports that are coming out of military intelligence from the german side, as well as the dutch side. suggesting that over the course of the past 2 years, ukraine has been interested, or at least flirting with the idea of attacking the church stream in the black sea . and we understand, of course, this was headed by the former commander in chief of ukraine. and this is, of course,

a significant step moving forward. peter c. r. to singled out the turk stream as a crucial energy supply route for europe. can you tell us a little more about the role. busy that plays well. first and foremost, we understand the church stream was established by russian and turkish companies. there was a great deal of the nation. we understand that the compressor say should sort of rush out, of course, leads into the black sea and in korea code, there is a receiving station. we understand that russians are to, to that point were of course committed to the project independently. and then we of course, taken to consideration the likes are hungry, which of course helps for the project to spend. but at the current moment, there is a 2nd pipeline that of course distributes the energy to the state of georgia and another one that runs through europe. or through your opinions and be understands how do at this get a moment is quite adamant of both over this acquisition to establish if we had to come to the friendly pressure against the tucker stream years ago,

we would now be in a very, very difficult position as a landlocked country, now we've heard a lot from leaders in europe. we've heard from russian authorities up until this point. we have not heard anything from the charger side. so it's going to be important to see what the trucks have to say with respect to the allegations that are rising as a result of the attack on saturday. while i'm delighted to welcome to live on to the program. now the leader of the british heritage political party, the u. k. dave, it's kurt and david. thank you for your time today. are you welcome? it's really good to join you through the talk to. now this feel the top took place, not long after tea of holes to the deal, to trends that russian gas into europe by ukraine, that happened at the end of the year. oh, very coordinated. it appears from at key of your view and what you plan is seeking to achieve bought, buy these moods. it's very bizarre. i mean, you know, zalinski there and keep having the people around him seemed to be biting the faith

to them. i don't understand that because the e u and e u countries have collectively given a 170000000000 pounds to the regime in ki evan. now they're trying to tops off and disrupt the energy supply to the very countries that are being supporting them over the last 2 or 3 years. now, i don't agree with that. i don't think that the countries west and country should have been given, giving financial ministry support to, to the landscape. but he's doing that now. i, i don't know what's his purpose is us saying, because i didn't want insensible with one of the countries. they gave me money to actually habits volume and economy. so we can get more say, i mean this, it really is just looking like someone who is facing the end of the war is miller tree is collapsing, everything is collapsing around him and he's just lashing out and trying to destroy

whatever you can. um, it just doesn't make any rational sense whatsoever, petty, so just just creating chaos. you raise a critical point because russia and ukraine are in a state of conflict that we know they're targeting each other's infrastructure. but that's escalation means not what we've seen that european states are directly affected. you've got to slovakia hungry, for instance, pushing back will not resistance to keeps. policies will not only grow the thing, say the hungry and the vac. you have being quite resistant from the very beginning and to giving more money to keep if, you know, that's known so, but they're not the only countries to get gas from the pipelines that come from russia. i mean, it does, you know, there's always starting sions which are put in place in 2022 quite um, you know, originally at the best of washington in the joe biden, victoria newland,

and people over there who want to see it. uh, they thought that they could put sanctions on russia to hunt the russian economy. what happened actually is the european countries have been more by the sanctions because they haven't had the gas to buy. now obviously the 3 major pipelines with transit gas from russia to european countries through ukraine have being caught. you know, that the supply there is being costs from the 1st of january. and now ukraine seems to be targeting the all the pipelines that go to the south of ukraine as well as to the north stream, which was blown off. and in 2022, september 2022. so, um, yeah, that, you know, every country in europe is, is resistant to giving more money to ukraine. there are some countries that is

absolutely support that. so was the key every team is doing here is, is nonsensical by thing bad. just trying to destroy as much as they kind of rushing infrastructure because they've got these long range weapons, but they've been supplied by the west. so in this, in essence, basically the worst, these hurting itself. this is an act of a self home by giving you cry weapons to far, long distance into russia. and now they are trying to destroy infrastructure that actually the west means the thing needs to come to an end or use a written, very interesting article, addressing the energy issue, suggesting that at walton, on damage pipeline, remaining out of the for north stream at pipelines, could still be used for gas supplies at to the west. just give us a sense why you'd think it is time for europe to seriously examine this option. yeah,

well the one of the north stream to pipelines is intact. if that was the political well, this could be turned on very, very quickly. and gas could be coming from russia, from the north end to germany, and then that would provide more for the whole european gas infrastructure because everything is insulating to including even the, the, the gas infrastructure and pipelines in the u. k. they're willing to get, i mean, the u. k, for example, never took much gas from russia, bought it's insta link. so we face less gas coming from not sure the prices of gas coming from norway, for example, increase. so turning on this pipeline is something that really needs to happen. and it's the sensible thing to do. why keep a pipeline off? when it can be turned don't provide gas, the heat homes and keep businesses running? because the alternative is that people freeze on businesses go bankrupt and the by the administration is latest sweeping sanctions against russia's energy industry.

they've already resulted in an oil price spike. i'm. is this a case of self sabotage by the ip going by the administration at this stage? does joe care? and i think he wants to do as much damage as they possibly can. he's got a week, a week left to do it. i mean him and the people around him, and i think more of the people in his administration like victoria knew that i would like to see a home dom to russia in the last week. you know, again, these people, these are people who are going out. they haven't got their way and you know, like people who have lost the fight they, they would just try to do whatever they can to it is safe face in the, in, in napa voted minds. that means trying to home the people that they couldn't defeats in a conflict. no, the conflict should have happened in the 1st place, but this seems to be what's going on. let's hope that in a week's time when president trump comes in,

all this will come to an end and we'll get back to some sensible and rational decisions just to pick up of what you're saying earlier in your country. david. and we do speak to people there and they tell us, you know, they, they, they, the prices of bills compared to 34 years ago. it just the stipends me when, when, when they give their, their experiences. i'm, how serious is the situation of how serious could it be for some time to come? you know, the situation is very, very bad in the u. k. energy bills have gone up 3 or 4 falls over the last 4 or 5 years. and now the current government is guiding helpful data with this net 0 agenda where they want to de call the noise the economy that actually this got. but this government and the previous government collectively have literally blown up most of all cold power stations from 2014 on which we used to get 40 percent of our

electricity from coal. they plugged them up so that no one could use them again. and they want to actually now stop using gas and rely entirely on solar panels and wind turbines. this is a complete insanity because when the wind stops blowing and the sun stopped shining, then there's no energy. and then they have to rely on emergency imports from the networks that we connected to. but then of course, we have to pay a huge amount more for the energy even if we actually used off domestic production facilities to the full. so we have people in government who would just, you know, it could all medically and it's routes and insane. and basically they all, um, so it's a big problem. but a lot of the problem is of our own creation. when the ukraine conflict is resolved and we hope that sooner rather than later on, some sort of agreement has been broken between the parties. how do you see the future of european energy security? a big issue, right? thought, well, well, rush should be allowed to play

a role of any sort. for instance, i think if we have sensible people in the room, adults come back to the room. they will realize the, we need this. and now what is actually surprising is that the impulse from russia have continued, even though there's the war going on, even though the people have been very, very belligerent in the west towards the russia. until this month. the gas supplies were transiting through ukraine. that's not happening now, but gas supply is all still coming in through touch streaming through blue stream. as you said. so i think in the future we need to get back to normality, open up all the pipelines and get gas from the cheapest possible source and supply, which at the moment is russia way. norwegian gas as well as is relatively cheap rather than trying to pivot to rely on l. n. g from the usa, which is far,

far more expensive. the moment we go, all these sanctions on russia, which actually hurt us because we have to pay far more for our energy. if we the, i think he cannot make necessity, will make people realize that we need to trade with russia for energy. again, lots all state for thoughts. mr. david, currently leader of the british heritage party live in the program. thank you, sir for your time on your thoughts. thank you. thank you showing, you know, it's a brick through deal between israel of come us is close. that's according to an r t source who told us the final draft of a ceasefire and hostage release agreement is currently being reviewed by the 2 sides and the good tardy capital. best course live not to ortiz, middle east bureau chief, maria for not not really good to see you. i knew you're on high hopes that the violence is going to come to a close. what's the state of play as regards of possible cease fire on the risk

a good into your unit. and well i have to say that the has to be know a special announcement. she has with multiple sources in numerous reports, say that the deal between israel and her boss is closer to an average data roan middle is sources also earlier confirmed that's 2 t the agreements that could bring hostages home and of course, pays the way to ending the states and conflict in gaza, which has claimed over 46000 lives according to local health officials, both sides race to finalize this though, before january 20, as president elect donald trump warned earlier i thought without resolution before he's in the ration. hell will break out in the middle is we send the high level meetings with the participation off is really an american delegations with the representatives from both current and incoming administrations along site guitar.

we and egyptian mediators has been essential in brooklyn disagreements recently and embarrassed choice and discussions took place in doha, on monday with final details were discussed. and we heard that had last was sent a draft proposal earlier approved by israel and telling me there's no way to fold the response from the militant group. but some unconfirmed reports already said that the draft has been approved by him boss, leaders abroad and everything. now depends on how much since you are who is how much is the fact to leader in guys on the ground. the wrong 98 captives county held in guys of we've at least 36 of them for your dad. so official numbers could be even higher. so what does this new deal involve? the 1st 40 to die stage. we'll start with a 10 per we cease. fire is ready for that as well. withdrawal from crowded areas and aerial strikes will be limited. importantly,

to understand that israel lumen maintain control of the philadelphia corey, the alone, the gals that age of voltaggio in these phase. and will not for the withdrawal from the strip until every last advocacy is freed. and the 1st phase of mazda said to release such a 3 is where the hostages civilians, women, children, and the elderly, referred to as humanitarian cases. and in return, israel will release how the student prisoner is also focusing on women and miners based on pre approved place. but we do not know the exact number yet. a key point. anyone released by israel will not face re arrest for past offences. however, that was deemed the heavy weight, so those with the blah, them, the hands will not be released to the west bank. we here, but where it to most likely to guys where they could easily be targeted by i g f. a

certainly have mas demands. they be sent somewhere else. 2 costs are with turkey, and this remains unclear so far how this will be settled. so we're waiting for official announcement again. on the humanitarian front, we can expect $600.00 trucks of age, 2 floating daily to restore, essential infrastructure and provide urgent relief. as you remember, the humanitarian situation and the strip is catastrophic. 15 months have to the beginning of the war, talks about phase 2 will start 2 weeks into the 1st stage and face 2 will last another $42.00 days. during the reach remaining hostages will be freed, including israeli soldiers hire. israel will then withdrawal completely from the gas as true pan hostilities will seize hand. we hear that withdrawal process will be grad. you will not have one time departure. and that's how is real, will make sure that her mouse actually implements the deal. and the terms of the

agreement, also note for say, israel will establish at boss the zone between its territory and the gas a straight to protect its southern regions. which means id have troops will be deployed along the security fence. inside garza, israel will implemented security measures as well from the nets. irene core there that is a line how that cuts the in claims into to, to the north, to facilitate civilian crossings. and while these marks as significant breakthrough of course, pressing questions were made and perhaps the most critical of all as well. this actually and the war from us i use to retain in power, while israel will not seize facilities unless have mouse is completely removed from and his decision making rows. again, this part is not clear yet, but i have to say that note, all factions within israel supports a still finance minister and small trait to a leader of

a hard line nationalist party part of the time. yeah. who's call ition has been a very vocal critic labeling disagreement as a catastrophe for israel security. he has been advocating for ongoing military action against from us and more military pressure. early on monday, small afresh was confronted by relatives of his riley hostages, who criticized. he stands on the deal and dozens of family members, many clutching photos of the missing loved ones. packed could meet the ruling to do and the budgets have meetings, budget session there and the emotional showdown. last at over an hour, we saw me in tears accusing smoke for each of neglecting the $98.00 hostages still in connectivity in the gaza street. however, some relatives are not in favor of this phase approach to the hostages released expressing concern, the time is running out for their loved ones and they say they want to see the

return old as one says they or they are posted on the say boss. but again, it has the notice to show announcement so far and you still have to wait for an official confirmation from these really authorities and from from us back to you. yeah, it could be a big day. we wait and see as you say, our takes middle east bureau chief marissa north to thank a precious defense ministry has confirmed its troops. i secured another village in the done yet square public residents are currently being if i can with it from there. now it comes as several people from another recent they've taken city. i've described what they call a trust to these car, died by the night forming ukrainian occupants, ortiz, senior correspondent, and the rockdale. steve was the 1st international journalist to enter and report from correct of these early morning we are on route to put rocks about. lock is on our side.

the it is warm 5 degrees, which means a fee during the plaza. oh, and you drove the tool, condensation. move very quickly, blow the camera. so it is incredibly others that are typically incredibly cause the most i briefly where are we in, what's the situation to deal with the if you could up the we are in colorado. the situation is stands much stable. so don't bunch of coaches dunn's bunch up stretched out and they'll take my head if something happens to you most high. he's

battalion. come on the faith gods brigade. 51st. me. he had his units took good. awesome. well, it was a brutal yet unexpectedly quick victory. now he's charged with safeguarding and marshalling, deluca folk who there are so many of hello please. we're could i charge my phone. i saw the generator, but i don't know the way to the basement. come inside and go right here. yes. we've heard. well, how are you holding up? young lady, young lady, no old woman. no, your a young lady. oh boys. how are you holding up? we're managing boys. we're managing. this is the result of an attempt to ukrainian

counselors that they mess with or that bush or normal p g launched, a rocket propelled grenade was by russian flies, a ways to get on bush destroyed this multi 1000000 west and supplied a good personal carrier. and these are those of you know, of a cut off or goals of repeated and attempted count of attacks by you create in full . this is what you call one of our groups gaming quiet during the night and setup to entered. think mine's opposite. the car workshop in the morning, the enemy decided to carry out or taishan. we woke up to the scene 200 maces down the road, another ahmed personnel carrier and the loan side. the alma account was cool to sit in camouflage abandoned by ukraine's retreating. and there are many, many apologies visit whatever crossover, both ease of you, kate,

in soldiers abandoned here by the retreating comrades. they all being collected the situation is much calmer than it's usually eas, off of the captive big city. it is. you're in the com, the city again, eas, unexpectedly, who? we are currently less than an hour's walk away from ukrainian positions you crate in phones. this is the red zone as we were told, the danger zone. but what is spending ease? this doesn't feel like the red zone, it doesn't feel like the ukrainians are mere. our way we have seen bible fields and cities. what move from are you able to walk with modern garage? it is, you know, and it is never looked like face the entire city is virtually intact,

other than broken windows and busted roofs. everything else could be easily repaired. it is a testament to how you premium resistance as we could the 2 grains army has lost pollutant. see is new secret russian forces and now far beyond the city pushing further and further ahead. morale is high level the ball. my call sign is to ball. everyone here knows me. we gave those developing and we're off again. we're going forward. rise, stay strong boys. but the other surprises how many civilians choose to remain in garasco, but to risk it. war and the weight russian troops, i've done it well. we waited for you for so long. the soldiers told us not to close our windows, but they'd come soon. we didn't believe it at 1st because there were incidents

where they would change clothes and kill people in basements and apartments who would kill them. the ukrainians, who else? what do you mean? killed how i would just like that. we would think they were russian soldiers. we would go out to hug them. we waited for you for so long. we were so happy that you came here, so it was revenge. yes, they shot at people because we were waiting for russia, most full of 1000 people near enough for closure of the population to stare. risk is in stay in crossover, hoping to greet russian troops. it is a standing figure, given the risks. yes. now, all of them have horror stories. they will describe the haze and the views suffered at the hands of ukrainian troops. as i do, yes, it will do for you, then they would come into apartments and execute people. they would throw grenades
