here in washington, the state department has approved the potential sale of tank shells to israel.d send about 14,000 tank rounds for immediate delivery. the biden administration used an emergency authorisation to push the sale through without the congressional review that's normally required. for more on this, i spoke with our north america correspondent, shingai nyoka. shingai, we understand that the state department is pushing through this sale — usually there is a review process when it comes to sale to a foreign country. what more do we know about this? according to a state department statement, they notified congress last night of their intention to move ahead with this arms sale. it includes 13,000 rounds of tank ammunition, but also logistical and support services to israel. they say this equipment will be taken from the us army inventory. as you have mentioned, this is a very rare move, but it's not unprecedented. in his statement, the secretary of state antony blinken also justified the reasons why he was waiving this move of going through congress. he says that this is a

washington to continue military support for kiev. against this background, another interesting statement was made from the state department, where theyvailable financial assistance for ukraine, about 97% of these resources have already been exhausted. state department spokesperson stated that washington considers the situation in kiev very difficult. and this sounds like it. similar to how we remember the statements from the secretary general of nato, who also made it the other day. some congressmen want to link support for kiev with protecting their own border. such statements have also been made. there was a very interesting article in the washington post, just the day before, which was devoted to the reasons for the failure of the ukrainian counteroffensive. great article, quite detailed analysis, we also talk about it in detail in our story, which we show in the information. now i won’t go into detail, because you can look at the plot , in fact, get quite complete information, well , our colleagues also translated this article, of course, you can watch it for those who are interested, but we will also touch on the topic in a disc

expansion. continental shelf in seven sea areas, as can be seen from the map published by the state department , washington’sgest appetites are in the bering sea and the arctic. the total area of ​​the territories over which the united states establishes its sovereignty, on the basis that the sea is a continuation of its continent, is 1 million km, of which 540 km falls on a large wedge from alaska towards the arctic ocean. it also lays claim to these territories. but there have been no official comments from the us neighbor yet. the interest of states in the northern seas is dictated by the mineral resources located in their depths. the arbiter in establishing boundaries is a special un commission based on the convention on the law of the sea. for example, russia , through this commission, after several years of proceedings, at the beginning of the year received rights to 1.7 million km in the central part of the arctic ocean. they also formalize their claims... the natural anger of these countries, it is worth noting that the united states did not even agree to the un convention on the law of the sea ratif

state antony blinking in washington dc. that calling for an immediate cease 5 party call. hi. how's this update from the state department in washington with the meeting has been taking place. you can read the room, their expressions, i think said quite a bit secretary of state entity blinking was, had a small smile in his face. perhaps one other person in the room was smiling. the others looked quite grim and the reason for that is obvious. they've been in washington dc for the last 8 last 8 hours, sending the message. they have one clear to man a ceasefire. now, so think about the timing of this. they come to the state department just moments after the us make sure that the un cannot demand to cease fire. so they're talking right now as we speak. and if they're saying to the secretary of state, what we, what they've said to press into some of the policy makers throughout the day is that they need a ceasefire. now, saudi arabia said the foreign minister from saudi arabia when i ask, is the bite administration doing enough? are you doing enough? he said nobody's doing enough, obviously because the fighting is still happe

huge amount of frustration and also probably in i of frustration and also probably in washington in the state departmentgered by the atrocities committed by hamas on seventh 0ctober, atrocities committed by hamas on seventh october, the military response from israel has been as proportionate and breaches international law. and yet the international law. and yet the international community, the only way could be brought to a halt as if the americans are prepared to put sufficient pressure on israel to say you must now stop.— after 3:30pm and be talking to a doctor in the south of gaza talking about the situation there. we will keep an eye on that vote at the un security council and bring you anything we get from that. also coming up after 3:30pm, in about 20 minutes' time, we will be showing you some images from shane mcgowan's funeral taking place. you may have seen images elevates profession to dublin where coffin was taken through the streets in a horse—drawn carriage through dublin led by a marching band and piper and people singing in the streets. we are expecting that funeral to get under way in ab

in washington, d.c., state department spokesperson matthew miller said monday it was too soon to judge whether israel has been doing enough to protect civilians in gaza. miller was challenged by veteran palestinian journalist said arikat. >> you don't think israel intentionally -- >> i've not seen evidence they are intentionally -- we believe are too many civilians have been killed. again, this goes back to the underlying problem of this entire situation which is hamas has embedded itself inside civilian homes, mosques, schools, churches. it is hamas putting these civilians in harm's way. amy: a court in the netherlands has heard a lawsuit brought by human rights groups challenging the government's export of f35 fighter jet parts to israel. oxfam and amnesty international argue the arms transfer violates the netherlands' obligations under international law to prevent war crimes, citing israel's wide-scale and serious violations of humanitarian law in gaza. dutch human rights lawyer liesbeth zegveld argued the case. >> the state must immediately stop its deliveries of f35 parts to israe

in washington, the state department offered one theory. >> it seems one of the reasons they don't want they've been holding hostage and the reason this pause fell apart is because they don't want those women to be able to talk about what happened to them during their time in custody. >> does the israeli government have information that supports that? >> we fear for the state of the hostages. anyone who saw what hamas was capable of on october 7th, the sort of violence. whether it's the beheadings, the burning of people alive, the rapes. >> nbc news has reviewed evidence suggesting dozens of israeli women were raped, sexually assaulted or mutilated on october 7th. some freed hostages say they also suffered sexual abuse while in captivity according to a group representing families. nbc news has not been able to independently confirm that. but there's another potential explanation for why noa wasn't released. two israeli military officials told us the first wave of attackers at the music festival were heavily armed members of the elite commando unit. but in the hours that followed, thousa

in washington, d.c., state department spokesperson matthew miller addressed the reports. >> any time we provide items like white phosphorus or anything to another military we do so with the expectation will be used for legitimate purposes and in full keeping with international humanitarian law and law of armed conflict. we are looking for additional information. amy: vermont senator bernie sanders has urged president biden to end unconditional assistance to israel's military, saying the united states was complicit in a mass atrocity in gaza. in a letter to the white house, sanders urged biden to slash his request for u.s. military aid to israel by more than $10 billion. he wrote -- "israel's military campaign will be remembered among some of the darkest chapters of our modern history. and it is being done with bombs and equipment produced and provided by the united states and heavily subsidized by american taxpayers." bernie sanders comments came as the senate wednesday approved a record $886 billion military spending bill with bipartisan support. the house is expected to pass the bi

state department in. 14. and when the fires of washington had yet to take place, james monroe, who was his boss, the secretary of state, was out scouting to see of the disposition of british military forces. he concluded that there was a very strong probable line that washington would be attacked and possibly burned. so he sent a rider back. the state department, who contact stephen pleasanton and said i think you should secure all the important papers of the united states. stephen pleasant and then got wagons. he had bags made out of course linen. he secured all the major records of the united states at that time that were in the possession of the state department, including the declaration of independence, the constitution of the united states, other records of the senate that had not been released. treaties. washington's commission. washington's resignation document. but obviously most importantly, the declaration of independence. that he took wagons across the river, around bridge after thinking about it, he concluded because there was foundry too close at hand that the british might think would be useful

at a year-end press conference at the state department, anthony blincon noted that washington has practicallylities. to provide support to ukraine. the help and support that we allocated for ukraine is being cut off. we have almost run out of the money we need, there is almost no time left. i can't give an exact date, but the direction in which things are moving underscores the urgency of the request for additional budget. nato membership is also unthinkable for ukraine. slovakia will use the right of veto on the entry into the independent balance. in an interview. prime minister robert fitz said to the publication infowar that ukraine’s membership in nato would lead to a third world war. and he noted that years will pass before the country joins the european union. now she is not ready for this. let me remind you that earlier the eu summit decided to launch negotiations with ukraine and moldova on their future membership in the eu. fitz then said that the decision to start negotiations with kiev was only a political gesture. a miscarriage of justice in the united states acquitted a man who u

judging by the maps presented state department, washington now considers two large areas to be its own bafort sea, north of alaska in the bering sea. rights are also claimed for the atlantic shelf in the gulf of mexico off the pacific coast and near the mariana islands. in total, this is 1 million square meters. twice the size of california. it is separately stipulated that there are no territorial intersections with russia, but there are with japan and canada, however, no one doubts that the allies will sign everything without complaint. washington considers the arctic its own the most important resource platform is beginning to prepare for the fight for the region. due to the militarization of the arctic, the admission of new members to military blocs, scandinavian, near-arctic states, due to the militarization of potential transports. arteries, now unilateral actions that are absolutely outside the plane of established international law, the united states continues to undermine the system of international relations and the system of international law that has developed over decades.
