A politician calling for peace in ukraine is a win for the nation. The, with the recap of the top stories from the 1st 7 days of april. Im right up to the moment developments as well. Hello, and welcome to the weekly here on our team. There is being a Ukrainian Drone attacked on the south throes yet. Nuclear power plant, 3 people have been injured on the sites, infrastructure damaged, rushes, rough, awesome corporation, who runs the planned house calls on the International Community to conduct vessel. The most awesome category condemns the unprecedented attack on the facilities of the Nuclear Power plant and its infrastructure and cools on the leadership of the International AtomicEnergy Agency, the director, general Rafael Grossi personally, as well as you governments to immediately respond to the direct threat to the safety of these a borrowers, your Nuclear Power plant, and categorically condemn the attempt to escalate the situation around europes largest Nuclear Power plant. This latest attack took place just before mid day web. The 3 ukrainian f p. The phones, otherwise known as kamikaze. Drones are reported to obstruct those. I thought it was you and youll be a pop blog, which again, is the largest in europe. One of the drones hit the port facilities, some of the Nuclear Power plants. And now the drone impacted me of a dining hall, which is again, used by hundreds, thousands of civil civilian employees of the Nuclear Power plant. 3 people, again will civilians, employees could be injured, and the law strewn heath the 6 reacts to build a v r e a has been won. Theyve said to themselves, of this strike, theyve been informed that it has happened that theyve also said this is consistent with their own observations. Its just 20 minutes before this latest strike, the International Atomic agency had a team on the ground conducting an inspection, the International Atomic energy engines. The experts have been informed by the upper ocean Nuclear Power plant that a drone designated on site today. Such designation is consistent with i, a observations i or still refrain from actions that contradict the 588. 00 principles and jeopardize Nuclear Safety director general russell grossey said the walls of these reacts the buildings are very, very fake. They can uh, they can withstand huge impacts as there is a risk the the drug would have penetrated the nuclear, the building itself before i sees, however, that it could destroy the body to little critical and for try infrastructure. Subbing the reaction building and that is uh, the water pumping mechanisms, the cooling systems, the powered systems which code uh by the lead to uh, a critical failure within the reactive building itself. The the ukrainian side had previously showed the reactor complex, the Nuclear Power plant repeatedly repeatedly the multiple attacks this damage at the Nuclear Power plant. Vital systems had been damaged before. Nevertheless, the west has refrained from outright criticizing you paid for these tribes. But now were also asked them is ringing alarm bells saying that these cannot be allowed to continue. And that this must be condemnation, will be great in government pressure on that. You created military to end. This will just picking up on one of her up slot, her points, the Russian ForeignMinistry Spokesman marie is the heart of the house, cold in western leaders to finally admit the key of seeking to strike. Europes largest Nuclear Power plant is potentially catastrophic. Biden mccomb, scholes and other wildlife defenders realize that their words and bumped away street may leave nothing of it. The International Community must realize and respond to the act of nuclear terrorism. But the key for shame, how many more time should the forces of ukraine show the supper ocean, Nuclear Power plant before the west, and its not short monsters. The landscape stop repeat in this w as in the blood is show last cross live now to independent dutch journalist sonia from the end a. Sonya, thanks for your time this some the evening. There we have, its ukraine continuing. The shell, the Nuclear Plants showing your lack of concern for the possible aspect consequences for both people and the environment. You know, there are a tax and then the right tax on, on nuclear infrastructure. Why does the International Community failure to react . And slum this in your if you know for me its very clear why they dont react because maybe they say its propaganda. But definitely its not propaganda. And when you hit a Nuclear Facility or a Nuclear Power plant, well, its so dangerous. I mean, this is the largest and you can Nuclear Power plant in europe, maybe the whole world. We dont know that, but you know, its so dangerous. We all remember channel. This was not done by at rome. Of course, it was a middle function there. But imagine this when something really goes wrong down the whole bureau and maybe the rest of the world. Well, we are in a lot of trouble, we can say, and i just looked up at the record. The news today at western use, for instance, the duct you determine use and, well, the made an item. Ok, you know, a russia explain ukraine estate or hips by drones. Not uh, its additional, assuming Energy Agency did not confirm that it was you crane who hits the Nuclear Power facility to, i mean, imagine this is. Yeah, i mean its also this agency its, its unbelievable for me. Thats, this is the reaction. We all know the danger of a Nuclear Power plant, and this is not the 1st time we know, you know that they did a lot of times already. So yeah, its unbelievable. Its interesting that that point you make it by the western headlines. Is it that you creating knows that by firing, and ms styles says that its not going to be reported in the west. As key of striking, you could have tons, it will just be reported as a strike on a nuclear plant. You know, almost a block getting rushes name by 5 bent of russia being involved in any way. But the actual short term isnt mobile. This is going to affect you train as well. If a Nuclear Power plant goes up in flames. A yes of course, and is what you said the accounts rushes name and its ease and they know maybe they, they know that ukraine is doing this. They will not admit it. And its, you know, its, and this is not proof. Again, this is not information war, this is a real thing. This can lead to a huge catastrophe. And this is what the ropes, you know, at least europe should know that this is real. This is drones, is street drones, hips at the society. So, i mean, how far will they go until uh, you get this to fee will go um and then they still say, you know, okay, so yeah, its a drone, but we dont know from what are going. Theyre going to blame russia then. When does it . Because does to feed its, you know, this is the way that they are reporting and this is the way of their media. But also i blame the cause of dishes because they have also have to take action on this and well, the i a, a, all scores also should go and condemn this. And i know they want to stay and youtube, but they have to admit, and they have to say, you know, this is done by ukraine and this has to stop and they have to attend to the World Leaders that this is so dangerous. Yeah. And again, it was a civilian workers of the plants who were injured and knots and military sites. I think its worth pointing out as well. Some of you, thanks very much for your time. Good to see you. Sonya funding in the independent dutch journalist live on art. Thank you bye. What for more on the training of the talk on this operator . Was she a power plant or websites as you covered all the latest developments going to be funded . R t dot com the its been 6 months since the october 7th terrorist thats happened this real um, subsequent board on gas on the focus of the idea. Salt right now is on this side of the strip and all the buildings in the city of come, you this have large, the being left in locals are returning with the hope of finding their homes. It comes as really troops have reportedly being pulled out of the southern areas is that it doesnt seem to be close to declare victory. They have been facing such a fact that can fit backs when theyre on windows folder. And there are more, they actually were almost on top of that. So it does look good. And so im going to say area. They seem to be now with them deploying the restructuring, the doing things for the sake of just making sure they can when. However, a mattress finished not giving up exposition or stance. Theyre asking for a phone withdrawal from the gods and theyre asking from for the subject of the war. Theyre asking for un hender access of humanitarian aid and revisiting my theaters into the cause of slip. I did not want to compromise any of those for the difference is that its on my side has been saying that they would not stop the war. Im just there for you and all. I kept him in gaza, so theres still a very long way to go. I said before i need a cease fire friend. Weve all been human this and you know, who has been highlighting the suppose a great so chief minutes of the is really Defense Forces claiming there just to step away from victory i as the game. So let me come uh, we are marketing today, 6 months of work on the shipments of the world. Great. We eliminated 19 out of 24. 00 from us battalions, including senior commanders. We are a step away from victory. Im us, as well as real with declared war on thomas oscar october 7th. Since then, more than 33000 gallons of being killed, according to local authorities. International groups are crying phone over the humanitarian disaster, their over half of the World Health Organizations, mission, request sub apparently being denied or delayed by israel. The you, an agency, howsoever, finally managed to gain access to the rooms of band. Today is the largest hospital. This is what they said, the w h o released fund inch of what remains about chief and gas, a city after months of id, afraid some bombardments, the images show. Robert just hospital boards with bodies strewn across the wreckage. Following their visit, the members of the un mission referred to the facility as quote, an empty shell with great will suffer lights, images of how she felt, but the scale of the destruction into perspective, World Health Organization spokesperson margaret horace. Describe the hospitals law says some of the quotes ripping the hearts of the regions, health care system, access to live saving aiden gals is not confined to just the doesnt and partially functioning. Hospitals like the majority of the nose, ill ship a hospital once the largest, the most important Referral Hospital and gaza is now and them to show off to the late to seek no patients remain at the facility. Most of the buildings are extensively damaged or destroyed, and the majority of equipment is on usable or reduced to ashes. The who team said that the scale of devastation has left the facility, complete the non functional side of reducing access to live saving, health care and gaza. Policy in childrens dr. Amin cell g told us the goals a health care situation. Its in a dire state and the idea of humbling of medical workers is unacceptable since the war began in uh, early october. Uh uh, the situation for his gear where guys uh, in guess as oh, so the west bank has to be dia is care with cost or to get uh, we need to get the the is that right . Yeah. The, the physicians nurses and, or allow his care where it costs and, and be with them in a very said is, and im actually in the, my, now i can add it. I got a degree of very sad events. And one of the ad bad in the gutter says shes in the f it online. Uh, yeah, she actually, she was, she passed away. She was getting along with the air force this task. Uh, ingenuity and is try it on their house. They live and not far from us, just awesome because they, they offer them to uh, do, uh, evacuated, at least in the area. They decided that know they wanted to stay in their homes and they have this cry. Its like x, where the head and 5, the 5 of them, where k, the International Observers have worn the run 70 percent of northern gals is population are on the verge of facing catastrophic law and the world food programs. Phase one and 3 children are severely malnourished. And not the number of people facing funding has doubled in the past 2 months. Well, be sure military and organization is working to provide all possible a to gal, since its stuff say their own safety said well, who has been able here to says 1000000 people every month with food because they completely depend on us. We have times is we dont have the necessary security guarantees to work here. The people also need to be safe. So for that, for us to really be able to scale out of large simons so that people dont have to die because they dont have food. We need security guarantees. So us as you my attendance but also for the people recess in gaza. Hi, i hey, that is i have 3 boys and one girl. They need food. Where am i supposed to give them food from . I cant afford to buy food, everything is so expensive and i have no money. Local kitchen is our safe place. We come here every day, close to the bus, here we eat whatever we can find. We eat and we think gods. My biggest tree is that when someone leaves the house, they wont come back again. Thats all a cabbage that they come back safely. Ok, lets cross live the to is real. Ill speak to you of the fall. We better in support. Her a post in the right hand boxes of the program of one democratic states for all youre most welcome. And perhaps just on what were, were seeing in Southern Gaza right now. The idea of Spokes Person sees that growing fits is really growing. Trips are withdrawing their leaving at the area. One brigade is there, people are coming back to of course destroyed homes, but they are coming back right now at why are there withdrawing knob in your if you i have so far, let me completely say to l. Price uh, vincent guys. Uh and uh, well fade. And they knows that even if they it could create a fairly, as s no, i guess as i think there was a, they came up uh and fixed the way in the saw. And the zane is losing. So just and only yesterday, so i so just told me i may need to any throw 10 guys off. So without paying it, i saw continuing 0 guys. And the gentleman said move on to continue to pay this past in the 7th. So they all apply to the account closest by you guys using the bill for troops inside garza anyway, very heavy enough kidding power out by doors and by the outcomes and by opportunity. So the example and is a tendency to continue to keep it on a daily basis that so sleeping every day about say fine to say that i apologize for that so. So they may very, lets say, so just phones are gone inside google. You also took part today, i believe in a raleigh in haifa. And like in other cities, people are demanding mister netanyahu, his resignation over his failure to get all the hostages released that are still held by come us. Are these gatherings gaining any traction, though . Because weve seen them before, many times. Are they having an impact . Oh hi. I just want to correct your this. Danielle did not find to get out. So i also just letting yall choose to play fairly zone for me because so being run over the face is and i so so, so this, this is for wrong. So he succeeded in why do you want it to go succeeded to stay on top of the reason why live is in your spine before the fluids that it was positive . Sol said there on both sides. Is it going this solution . Rand, 30 now. And that going feeling is a way to solve this problem that the zillow is now going north to eliza. And also theres a note to achieve any type of for immediate, the big story that stands out, fish and mega ends are fish. And maybe it is very much who are controlling various optic discussion points, the criminal offending 0 all to for all to, for the public discussion that came in 0. Appreciate a position like the inside of the covering. Id like, gone so outside of the copying. Thats like a lot been said dont call the findings. It was a car has a on the plans, its a slow dreams or a little bit of anything. Yeah. So as a continuous i same like only time to use. So i said no offer as a loyalty now to a little bit Prime Minister netanyahu. Hes coming out all guns blazing, he said, recently worth wanting to step away from victory. And this is months into the war. Why would he say that if its not going to happen . This is the only things that they can say because they dont. They cannot say that policy cannot say that victoria is always impulsive in that single village and states fighting get enough gun. As donald follow 20 is this all, its the military mind and they call it a 3 and another because they didnt have right now for me to tell the mind. Because you cannot false that theyre going to submit to are following post. I know a few impression. Okay, well thank you so much for your time today on sharing your view on that policy in human rights activists. You of how far we live on the program. Thank you. The, well, the is really defense minister saves the country, is ready to respond to any scenario that may on the phone with around now to mid rising tensions between the nations following an idea of strike on the really in consulate in syria, at the beginning of this month which feels 13 people including senior military stuff. The parliamentary speaker in children has promised that hes real will face harsh retribution. Now its almost all a honda. Suddenly the hot cape searched bags bodies really show that they have since death and destruction. After the 2 was 7 celebration, fully described, the uranium nation were punish design is to see what the punishment will be exemplary and harsh, and it will expedited to mice of design extreme. This of course, comes in the wake of monday, strike on the con. See that the rainy and consummate in damascus of syria. And this is a very, very uh, momentous event, single country targeting a, another country in a 3rd country its, its a significant breach of diplomatic. No one was if you like. So thats the 1st thing to note that this stuff doesnt usually happen. Countries dont usually launch strikes on the diplomatic charity of a 3rd country in a 2nd country. If you likes it, thats a significant thing. The impact of the strike as well is, is interesting to a 7, a senior and rainy and military officials were killed in this, 2 of them were brigadier generals, that were part of the codes force, which is the foreign operations im of the, is allow me to revolution, we guards core, so thats an as each military grouping which works with the rainy and allies and friends, and the chief of staff of the rainy and military has said that a come abberation for one of the, those killed us at the, at this, that there wouldnt be a response and that would happen at when the time was. Right. So this is feeding and fueling sense of imminence of, of an attack. Now even i a tell a, at least so many the supreme leader, if you like in, in ron has said that would be swift and definite a response to this. Something thats very interesting is that the radiance of actually america is wales vegas style. You remember america, phones, and politically supports the way the stays to a huge extent, hundreds of billions of dollars up and half the pumped into these very state, most of it in military aid. So without americans support, a lot of what is realtors in the region is doing at the moment. Thing as a would be impossible that the radius of actually asked the americans to step aside and let us deal with the it is way these in relation to destroy in a written message. These law mac republic of a ron warn the us leadership not to get dragged into netanyahus trap, stay away so you wont get hurt. In response to the us, ask iran not to target american facilities that the americans have said that they expect and a rainy and response as have these ladies who have suggested in seniors where the american face has suggested that theyre working together to try to get ahead of whatever this response may be. Now, that means a that b is really and the American Intelligence Services are working for. You just need to find out what exactly the response would be interesting to you, as well as the world watches and wait to see what happens as president biden. And Benjamin Netanyahu have a phone call this week. The key issue after discussion here has shifted from the, the, the solved and gaza, to how to manage this increasingly dangerous situation in the, in the wider middle east. And wed like to have a listen to watch at bingham in yet. And you have said in the aftermath of that phone call with joe boyd, and i think its quite tele, closer, an entry on board and theyve done it for years and run has been action against us both directly. And while its process is that for israel is acting against the run and its process defensively and defensively, we will know how to defend ourselves. And it will act according to the simple principle of whoever homes us or plants to hom, us little hom, them there is a sense of expectation, not just from the, the Global Community thats watching this very nervous and other countries in the region. So do you re view a rack all of these countries watching with a beta bet, because it doesnt take much to put you off the powder keg. And what its really fascinating is that in this instance, is both israel, who is now preoccupied to, to a huge extent with its more as it calls it in gaza. It has a huge amount of troops on the lebanese border facing off against hezbollah. Hes really military is no exceptionally l if you hired, stretched to accommodate the pressures on as a grade or conflict with the rom could push it as well to drastic action. And remember that we know that as well as the noise, it could be in possession of, of significantly destructive weapon we, lets say. And the world is watching at to see what happens next. The course well be watching to ship it was taking a straight up. Lets start attention to slovakia, where ukraine skeptic Peter Pelligrini, has won the president ial election between a pro western opposition candidate. The slovaks president elect has doubled down and calls for peace talks 9 in the printing conference. The schools flow, i will do everything i can to ensure that slovakia, whether anyone likes it or not, always remains on the side of peace and not on the side of war and let whoever wants to criticize me for that as much as they want. So of course Peter Pelligrini has won the reasons for biking, president ial elections against a pro western opposition. Its worth noting that the president in slovakia does not really have a lot of executive power, but he can veto laws and challenge them in the constitutional court. But in his program, pelligrini chooses to put an internal affairs on the front, so we choose to focus on what still vacuums are dealing with in the country. Oh, its interesting. He is one of the very few you leaders that is sending for piece talk when it comes to the situation in ukraine. He says that hes not fond of the idea of sending more weapons to ukraine, but we could say that him when it is essentially show in the side that slovakia is, are taken when it comes to the cleaning of conflict. Okay, so we have a president , the legs in favor of peace will see International Reaction being to this development. So course in the west, if your views dont really align with what they see is morally right, then you are this pro russian entity that is against piece for them being against b equals being against a ukraine. When so for them its either ukraine wins or nothing at all and whats their media was quite quick to highlight to this specific view in different articles. But the Prime Minister of the voc. Yeah. Also shares a similar view to the one of the president. Now in slovakia im like the president , the Prime Minister, which leads the government holds the most executive power. So the Prime Minister here roberts vips so says that he promises to and military a to queen and that he stands for peace talks list like listen, ok and i you like it has other and bigger problems in ukraine. We dont rebas army ukraine. You smell forms a coalition, we would do everything also as a part of the you support everything for peace in ukraine and efforts to stop peace negotiations on ukraine. Now the Prime Minister slovakia has previously mentioned that these you sanctions, i guess most people are essentially pointless. He also says that if the ukraine to the joins nato then that he pulls the 3rd world war. But so we do have folder reactions to this president ial election and one of them is they, hon. Gary and Prime Minister, who essentially congratulated slovakia on the recent elections looks like listen, my heartfelt congratulations to people agreeing on his overwhelming victory at the slow but president ial elections. A big win for the people of slovakia and the big wind for the advocates of peace. All around europe. Now at the end of the day it was the countrys choice to make so which this would mean that people in slovakia are essentially tired of seeing their money being spent in a war that they dont want to be part of. So of course, another you member that is also sharing the same sentiments as silva is hungry and the backlash against slovak is annually elect to president is also something we saw. I guess the home very a Prime Minister victim or been all because these country also stands for peace talks rather than sending more and more weapons to ukraine. Of course, now the west seems to be in fear that some sort of slovak can in hon. Gary and coalition might happen, which could threaten the rest of the, you know, by threatened in here. I mean, thats more and more you citizens might just start electing candidates that are more pro peace talks and negotiations. And, you know, with an economic crisis in the u on top of that internal and domestic issues on the rise, its very probable that sooner or later that you will have to make a choice. And that choice is either uh, settled in the go shooting table with most so and talked about the consulate or tape on spending more and more money on your brain and spending more money on your claim that is only showing a war that ukraine is now losing and also award that could potentially escalate into something even worse. My colleagues in the email is shara and nicky are in earlier. All right, it is sunday. So that means we must be do a visit to the worlds apart studio. So lets do just that sound is up next they close the
