protests have taken place in jamaica, the country to cut ties with the britton royal family and demanding reparations for slavery. the protests come as william and kate visit the former colony. last year, the island of barbados removed the queen as head of state. one person is dead after a tornado swept through new orleans. the storm hit power lines and destroyed homes in an area that is still recovering from the devastation caused by a hurricane ministry. there are reports in germany that tiktok has been using a word fertile -- filtering system in the country. the chinese owned social media platform has been blocking posts that contain words related to sex, gay culture, and nazi-ism. among the terms was auschwitz. users were able to post words, but the posts were not visible to others. a practice known as shadow banning. for more on the story, let's bring in an investigative reporter with mdr and a part of the team that uncover this. welcome to the program. can you tell us about how you and your team came across this? reporter: thanks for having me. it started with a tiktok account that

how britton became the servant of ty coon's tax doctor, is clipped across. and criminals over thanks so much for joining us. so london is a haven for russian oligarchy. why is the city in particular so popular among oligarchs? yeah, i should say to starts, is that it's not just a haven for rational oxy savings for any oligarchs. you name them. we have them. essentially, britain. i mean, obviously anyone who's been to london knows that it has lots going for it. if you're wealthy, there's lots to buy, we have help and shops, we're schools, great universities, all of these things. but we have a 2nd advantage that doesn't really get discussed so much, which is that though your wealth is very secure here is protected by the british british legal system by the british police. it's not going to be investigated by the british legal system either. so it isn't just a great place to spend money. it's also a really great place to keep money and you can keep it here forever. now this oligarchy are becoming the target of western sanctions. are those sanctions working? huh

terry britton said, faced with big online platforms behaving like they were too big to care, europe hast its foot down. we are putting an end to the so- called wild west dominating our information space. we are making a new framework that can be a reference for democracies worldwide. big goals. big intention. what is this framework and is it going to impact is here? >> it will indeed. it's interesting to note once again european regulators are stepping out ahead of washington, d.c. where we have seen gridlock and just a great deal of confusion and disagreement as to what antitrust regulation should úlo lawmakers and coming from regulators here in washington, dc. some of the same territory that they have been talking about, european regulators have come to decisions about. you can just hear the scrabbling going on in silicon valley right now between these armies of political lobbyists and lawyers. they will have to move to respond to the european moves. quite possibly other countries around the world will follow suit. >> we had an interesting conversation just before you came on with sta

the grit, the compassion, the determination that brittons kpeublted eight -- exhibited eight decades ago that inspired the world is what we see in the ukrainian people today and it's why we need to stand with them. with that, liz, over to you. secretary truss: thank you very much. it's great to be here with my friend and allies, secretary blinken, and we've certainly seen lots of each other around the capitals of europe over the last week, working very closely with our allies. putin's illegal invasion of ukraine is causing immense pain and suffering, yet he's not making the progress he planned. since the buildup on the border, the united kingdom and the united states have challenged putin's aggression. before the invasion, the united states and the u.k. called out his playbook of false flags, attempts to install a puppet regime in kyiv, and fake provocations. we worked with our g-7 allies to warn that he would face severe costs and determined ukrainian people. we have surprised putin with our unity and the toughness of our sanctions, hitting the banks, the ships, the planes, the olig

with a with the ukraine and also with russia naturally to facilitate this much needed assistance. britton's parliamentary allowed a rare moment of applause in the house of commons to show solidarity with ukraine. politicians gave a standing ovation to the printed ambassadors of britain as he wants the proceedings form a public gallery. from this devoris, johnson accused watches president vladimir putin of war crimes in ukraine i, what we've seen already are from vladimir putin, reggie in the use of the munitions that they have already been a, been dropping on as an innocent civilians. i missed the speaker in my view, already fully qualifies as a war criminal. i know that the that the i c c prosecutor is already investigating until the whole house. i will support that the us and other industrialized nations of a great release. $60000000.00 barrels of crude oil reserves to try to curb soaring oil prices. following russia's invasion of ukraine washer is the 3rd largest producer of oil, which has now hit $110.00 per barrel. that's brent crude. in south africa, consumers are flocking to the pump

we asked him about london's amputation as a city full lift britton's kremlin aligned elite. when we come to london, oh, there is this nickname. they don't mean that nickname, a london garad. so lots of a russian money in london. and london is being called and money laundering capital of the world is that justified, it's totally justified. london has attracted more russian money than probably any other city in the world. the money came here because there's property rights, there's rule of law, and there's a police force. this never asks any awkward questions. there's never been any such serious pursuit of criminal money by the british authorities. many of them bought expensive villas and apartments in this up market district of london. now, under the new sanctions, the british government has ordered the seizure of some oligarchs property. the most high profile of those oligarchs is even lost control of his soccer club. britons foreign ministry says assets worth the equivalent of 17900000000 euros have been seized so far. well, i think the intentions are great. i like to see w

and in turn has claimed moscow would stage a provocation. britton's foreign secretary has also warned of similar attacks from russia, but russia's permanent representative to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons says moscow has evidence on its side. good. so during the discussions, our western partners tried to create an image of concern over rumors of russian forces, preparing a provocation with chemicals in ukraine. we categorically denied that and promised to present the facts in the document was sent with gifts such facts. for example, the delivery of a $200.00 leader barrel of chemicals with identity labels and foreign languages to don bass. the private military company, forward observation group from the state of nevada, coordinated the shipment. during the unloading for you, craning soldiers received chemical injuries. and other example is the plans of ukrainian extremists and neo nazis to commit sabot edge on civilian chemical industry facilities to contaminate the area. recently we got information that neo nazis delivered 80 tons of ammonia to saline from

a key if has refused the offer. britton's britons media regulator has decided to revoke ortiz license to broadcast him u k. with immediate effect off. com site of the current conflict, a new crane and band, the network due to its relations with the russian state. this investigation has taken the count of a number of factors including artie's relationship with the russian federation. it is recognised, the art is funded by the russian state which has recently invaded a neighboring sovereign country. we also note new laws in russia which effectively criminalize any independent journalism that the parts and emotions states news narrative, in particular relation to the invasion of ukraine. we consider that given these constraints that appears impossible for oxy to comply with the jew impartiality rules while broadcasting code in the circumstances. this is a continuation of the madness that is going on in america and europe. it is anti russian madness. this is yet another step, crudely limiting freedom of speech. british authorities have opened more than 2 dozen investigations into whether

i won't speculate about mister britton's in game, but i will speculate about his tactics. it would make sense if he cannot conquer physically the entire country that he would probably pull back and whole the areas that he has. and then use the same tactics. the same approach he did with the don't boss get the people in there move some people in there in order to support him, declare them as republics, and absorb the territories eventually into russia. i wouldn't be surprised if that was his up his plan. all right, we'll leave it there. thank you so much for joining us. brooks taking to robert hunter and andrea bucklin over really appreciate your time with us. thank you for watching. you can see the program again any time by visiting our website al jazeera dot com for further discussion. you can go to our facebook page dot, facebook dot com, forward slash ha, inside story, join the conversation on twitter handle is a james. i story myself and the whole team here and how, thanks for watching and the bye for now. for this one's feared warlord during lay barriers, decade long

there is russia's foreign minister, sir gala ralph the chief diplomat and the public face of mister britton's policy for years. now. he were poorly advised at war diplomacy before the ukraine invasion, but clearly his boss was not in the mood to listen. what's not clear is just how much mr. brewton is listening to his advisors and their speculation. he may be side lining them. let's get you more now. we're dw correspondence. emily, sherwin is with me here in the studio. she has been reporting for quite some time from our d w. moscow office until its closure by the russian government. thank you so much for being here, emily. so good to have you here with us. how much does mister putin listened to his advisors? well, when it comes to the decision to go to war, many experts who are close to the kremlin have been saying that essentially most people in the political elite, including many of those men that we were just showing, didn't even know what put in was planning. so they didn't know that he was planning a full scale war. some of them may have thought that he was perhaps just going to go into

and earlier i spoke to ben wallace britton's defense secretary, who made his point clear. president putin can't be less off what he's already done . i mean, the russian government took the decision to invade a sovereign country, killed thousands of potentially, people bombed innocent civilians broken the geneva convention. done a range of things that is just totally acceptable. and that'll stick around for a long time. the invasion of ukraine is creating new geopolitical and security headache for so alliance members across the whole continent, raising some big questions about the security of the reason, as well as the west, twice a week in itself, off ross and oil and gas is looking to norway to make up for sure, full meaning, new security implications for protecting oil and gas installation in the arctic region. in the past year or so, russia has also been reopening cold war bases in the all taken. the big concern now is that this part of the world will the world love natural wilderness if could end up becoming the next zone, a conflict where there been a number of explosions outside the

and on wednesday, britton's defense minister ben wallace said the country was now going to supply ukraine with something called stock street anti aircraft misdialed. previously, when you, britain had supplied short range and he tank weaponry which has been taking out some of those columns. but at the same time, when you look at what's happening in ukraine, the flip side of its failure of the russian initial aims means that for example, they are resorting to as strike small. those devastating a strike such as on a theater that we saw on wednesday. so it's coating severe chaos and a lot of distress as well as, for example, tactics like besieging places like mario pool. the civilian population are basically being held hostage. so in terms of m, where this leads us to, it's hard to say the defense ministry and not making predictions about how long the conflict will last. they're simply stating that they think the term via the russian and game plan has not going how moscow wanted it to. that's nadine barber in london . thank you, notting. let's build on this. now countries have been delivering

and in fact, on wednesday you britton's defense secretary ben wallace said that on top of supplying anti tank weaponry, it's believed $4000.00 of those weapons already gone to ukraine now and is supplying star streak anti aircraft missiles which could be crucial in helping the ukrainians themselves to tackle russian or jets in the sky in the absence of what they're calling for, the no fly zone closing their skies as they've demanded from their partners which, which doesn't seem to be a realistic prospect. so that could actually be a significant move. certainly, we have seen a large air strikes on places like possibly that theater in mario pool witcher junior minister here in britain is now saying seems to be a self evident violation of international law. so this assessment, not a surprise, but a reminder that term certainly things are not going the way. must go it out. any of the meeting, pat, thank you very much for that update. nadine bab, life ross in london. russian forces may mala believe to be closing in on the city. port of odessa by land and sea, taking ukraine's 3rd largest city
