or a rock with horace, with barricades clashes on multiple arrests. does thousands of people, including students on the public sector, workers rally over storing cost and only the standard across that channel morris johnson's leadership? it's delta potentially fatal blow linked, emailed suggests, the british prime minister light about the evacuation of animals instead of people from war torn up down the stuff with okay, around the clock across the world. this is our team from the team and myself, you know the lead. hello and welcome to the news hour. we will get to those headline stories in just a moment, but some news coming into us from houston, texas. there is a portly, been a shooting in the downtown area, houston police are investigating a shooting that entered at 3 police officers in the 3rd ward area. according to police, they're actively searching for a suspect to shot at the officers and fled the scene in a white mercedes, a local police have asked people to keep away from the region. there is no video just emerging on local sites, just showing that firefight in the afternoon in the texas city of houston. so 3 officers reportedly injured on the person, the suspect involved has fled. the scene will keep you right up to date and any and all information we get on that story from the u. s. state of texas. the russian foreign minister has said the country is ready for serious talks with the us after washington deliberate, a written response to moscow security demands wherever circle of ralph expressed disappointment that russia's primary concern of halting nato's further. busy expansion into eastern europe was dismissed. lucas's celia, the cumulative. as for the contents of the reply, there are grounds for the beginning of a serious conversation. only about secondary issues regarding the main issue that has been no positive reaction. and the main issue, i remind you is a clear position on the in admissibility of nato's further expansion, eastwood's and on the deployment of strike weapons that could threaten the territory of the russian federation. the 2 key proposals that russia put forward as lever, i've said there were just flat out rejected in america's response to them. those 2 key proposals are concerning, the stopping of deployment of offensive weapons in europe that could possibly hit russia and also ceasing the further eastward expansion of nato, specifically into the countries of ukraine and georgia. now that 2nd point there was actually promised to russia back in 1990 when the soviet union was still around it. it was promised to the soviet union and then soviet president mikhail gorbachev was told that nato would not expand any farther than the older river in europe. and as a russian officials had over the years, tried to hold the west to that promise. they were actually acting in a child like manner according to leverage in that statement. now, he also cited the istanbul and astonish declarations of the organization for security and cooperation in europe. this, these basically declarations. they basically define the framework within which sovereign nations can decide which which military organizations, which military alliances they want to be a part of. and lever off says basically one very important point was left out. let's take a listen what he said, but a rebuttal. so use the right to choose alliances is clearly conditioned by the need to take into account the security interests of any other o s. c state. including of course, the russian federation. the principle by which one cannot to strengthen one's security at the expense of the security of others, is deliberately hushed up. lever off did ultimately accuse professional partners in the west of a bit of a pick and choose policy when it comes to obligations it expects others to follow. can you, can you tell us more about that? right, well he says that the west is basically trying to only pay attention to the clause . it says, sovereign nations have the right to decide what military alliance are going to be a part of without paying any attention to the fact that these same declarations say that it can't infringe on the security of any other sovereign nation. this is something that live or of brought up with us secretary of state antony blink. and during negotiations in geneva, actually let's take a listen to what happened here, specials and you because in geneva, when blinking an eye when negotiating, i asked how they could explain the position according to which they consider the commitments adopted within the ca, only as a menu from which they pick and choose only the items they find appetizing. what they have pledged to do in terms of the interests of others. they tried to ignore lincoln did not answer this question. he shrugged his shoulders. now leverage statement actually doesn't come as that much of a surprise. actually. nato just already rejected outright and publicly moscow with proposals on wednesday. and that was shortly after american investor, john sullivan made a visit to moscow to the foreign ministry to deliver america's official response that came by the way, 2 weeks after it was expected, russia filed these proposals back in mid december and were expecting and was expecting response for a while now, and this is all the while that the u. s. continues to say that there, you know, for diplomacy, but only as only if russia stop the so called aggression. now, what this aggression is, we're not exactly sure, but that happens at the same time that nato continues to strengthen its military positions across rushes. border. washington said that it's military advisors in ukraine will continue to stay there for the foreseeable future. and the u. k. and us continue to give weapons to ukraine. so of course, we keep hearing this word, diplomacy from the west, but it seems like their actions are saying something completely different. among the reaction we've got to de developments well as from political analysts like a hammer, he gave us his taken why the u. s. is insisting on further nature expansion, despite russian concerns, it disturbs the aim of world. busy dominance and the world dominance is started by making a border between russia and germany and vessel states like the baltic states, poland nowadays, the ukraine and down they want more modo, of course, to, to join the nature puppet state club. and this would form a border that they can hint the new soap road or belt road as the chinese called it from the land. why and couldn't germany or the german middle spend to work together with russians. and that for even but not for him to pipeline is, is disturbing because it causes that to germany can be energy in independence. and this is not in the interest of us and they to, because they want to keep germany blackmailing that german politicians, even if that happens some accident and people who are not. so in line with american politics, are getting gaining power, but they can always blackmail them. and keep them unable it. and while washington stresses the need for diplomacy is the only way out of the crisis, some journalists in the u. s. are striking, a more belligerent note. fine time till they replaced to invade ukraine, making you jump through hoops like han, delivering written responses to questions that yvonne said time and time again. in the past. meanwhile, that the stabilizing ukraine from within the economy's crumbling, you're spending hundreds of millions of dollars showing them up. what point do you stop playing rushes game and take preemptive action? now, we can walk and chew gum at the same time and that's very much what we've been doing . and while a number of journalists there are seemingly in war mongering mode, others seem to have lost a lot altogether. when it comes, the ukraine, even name checking you f o's, fosgate taylor can tell us more about they say you should be coo and a crisis on last your the media, in which case, why, when you can become hysterical. so panic instead, and never mind the kremlin battle proud of european bickering old by didn't nixon, ice cream just after warning about world war 3 off rule will never understand what goes on in his head. the media pundits, one real scoops to boulder the better, the more outlandish, the better. like this random women and kids, they found just hanging out a window holding a gun. i have never hunted in my life. i bought this carbon after listening to some soldiers discussing the best rifle to get if it comes stood, then we'll fight for key if will fight to protect our city. i don't see any sense in the rush and starting a war and leaving cave alone. it's strange because usually the major pro gun control, i guess it doesn't count of washes of the target. well, that how bad the crisis is. the media says that housewives have flipped back rags for rifles. the thing is marianna juggler is in fact a simple ukrainian woman from the territorial defense forces. her uniform is british, another fake story about militants whom western propaganda turns into anti russian freedom fighters. again, just like guns faking is as great when it's directed against the russians. i guess there's only a certain number of undercover housewives in ukraine. so the media is happy to look elsewhere specifically at a map. and it's noticed that the quickest way from moscow to key f is via chernobyl, making in the lowest logical invasion route. also making russians pretty much the only willing visit possesses. well, 1986. the risk of a war for the spreading radiation seems minimal, but one object in the zone is particularly vulnerable. a new $1700000000.00 stainless steel arch over the destroyed reactor. it was completed in 2016 to prevent the spread of highly radioactive gust. yes, on route to the landscape office, the press things that putin's troops might just topple a giant radiation containing structure that we've more than 29000 tons. you know for some like texas eyes and toxic exposure before the real fighting stops. talking about the real fighting and have you read the mirror recently? no. oh wow. so you can see hooton's terrifying arsenal of high tech support. well, these include, i warn you, the pools actively far raising power tupa dogs. i agree, it really doesn't look like that dog in the articles that i signed off for regular sky diving. and that's because he didn't and thought photo is always such an rescue dog, not one of the kremlin kin canines fabricated by the mirror. but if the ukrainians a don't surrender at the sight of a flailing dog and a harness. what the world, what types and flight kalashnikov are ready as back up? the so firing a kalashnikov rifle with its own brain is still at the prototype stage and a pit recently it's an arm show. it can identify target some, pull the trigger with all the need for a human shooter. so potent dragging out the very latest innovations. the special occasion, the thing is, the ai kalashnikov rifle has actually been around since 2017, the senior, the mera fide, it's entire back jackson department, at themes. and never mind all this, because the most disappointing thing about this entire process is that puts his pad block, the world will put a stop to travel, highly of old, extra terrestrials probably regard warfare as something the only primitive civilizations engagement. so the ukraine situation means we're unlikely to get an invitation to join the lexi federation for the time being, quite frankly, who can blame the media for drives and the agents, and told us, because once they finish driving, this wild population to a nervous breakdown, they'll need some new he does for all that out the while can panic and despair that they've got cookie. dozens of protests swept across france on thursday with workers across all sectors demanding 8 salary hike. to cope with the ever increasing cost of living. in the past number of hours, they're helping scenes of chaos. loosen chasing students and making several rat reports of vandalism as well. that rubbish bins overturned the organizers say it's a show of support for low paid workers hit by swinton living force. one group of students set up barricades outside a she in solidarity with teachers. trade unions are playing a prominent role threatening strike, action, undemanding pay rises and sweeping reforms. women misses were here to demonstrate over our working conditions which are continually getting worse. our means of teaching were being taken away from us and everything has been degraded. well, that is all to so we see people who got rich during the crisis. billionaires who got richer than ever. wiling. the public and private sectors salaries have sunk to low knuckle deal. we're here to say that society needs to work differently with more recognition for those who serve the common good school and health care staff. those who build social cohesion and ensure safety. those who keep our communities together with our society doesn't show enough recognition. it's gone crazy. ah, the bad news capes piling up for the british prime minister. now a series of emails have been late, suggesting boris johnson light about his role in the evacuation, a plain load of straight counts and dogs from afghan us down during last summer's withdrawal. the animal rescue mission in question was run by a former british army officer who reportedly had links with carry johnson, the pm's wife. it happened when thousands of people desperate to flee, the taliban were being left behind, pets before people. that was the accusation. some 6 months ago, it's resurfaced more recently now, but forrest johnson, he's denied that he actually approved the an adult animals out of afghanistan at the time when cobble was falling to the taliban. cooling the claims total rhubarb, but it's all emerged yet again. according to some leaks emails, i have come to light. they said that the prime minister personally authorized the evacuation. of course, boris johnson has always denied it, and he's denying it again today. this whole thing is, is, is total revoke. it was an amazing thing to, to move 15000 people out of co bolden in the way that we did. i thought it was also additionally very good that we were able to help those bits. so the question now is, did the prime minister actually authorize pen farthings animals to get out of the country via a private chart to flight? according to these leagues a emails and for involving virgin atlantic and the prime minister's top a parliamentary aid, she told the adeline that she could actually secure a plane to evacuate these animals from copple. and they were actually backed by abhorrence shows in the prime minister, uneven fost tracks. now foss trucks being a key line in that email, because it suggests that she could get a plane in and out of the country at a time when it was nigh on impossible. now, number 10 denies one of these claims. as does boris johnson, he calls it title nonsense that does the story really adds up at the time back in august of last year, the prime minister and then foreign secretary. they were know it to be seen. both of them were away on holiday leaving junior ministers and juno, junior civil servants to pick up the pieces and deal with the crisis. the government has repeatedly been severely criticized and condemned for how it reacted when thousands of desperate people in afghanistan was scrambling to get out of the country. the prime minister's biggest critics are saying his story doesn't tied up at all. forest johnson is unable to make the serious decisions that are needed. in this case, people were fleeing in terror as the taliban took over kabul and british forces were putting their lives at risk. the prime minister was once again prioritizing the wrong things and making the wrong calls, this demons. revelation shows that boris johnson has once again repeatedly lied to the british people. this is not the man who is fit for office. so how does all of this come up? now, we're right now, there's currently an investigation and inquiry into how the government handle the crisis in afghanistan. but of course, it comes visa, the other investigations that burse johnson is embroiled in, particularly the su gray investigation. and the police investigation into allegations of downing street parties throughout the pandemic as we await the su gray findings. forrest johnson's role as prime minister really does hang in balance . now, there are numerous schools across the political spectrum for him to give up and go . it's time for him to resign. they say his time really is up. meanwhile, in the polls, we see labor skipping ahead of the conservatives quite comfortably. now, plus, though, there are some serious concerns and series worries at all of these scandals upon scandals. the bars johnson is finding himself in may affect the tories comfortable majority. so in a desperate bid to try and salvage and rectify or if they some senior cabinet ministers coming out to warn or perhaps even threaten that the only way this is going to end up is in a general election. and if that were to happen, they say it be highly likely that the tourist could actually lose their seat. so what they're trying to do is deter. 8 tore back benches from submitting these letters of no confidence in the prime minister as rumor has it. there are almost enough of those that is being submitted that could actually trigger a leadership context all in all really what they're saying force is back as a basically hello tory back benches. you must now back the prime minister because as far as johnson goes down, we'll well, as he did well, we spoke with former british army officer trevor coal to served enough down the stone. he said the latest scandal at number 10 is just a distraction from the bigger issues. i think this is a bit of a smoke screen right now. we've got to mount that. there's a lot of stories going around, a boat present on a boat, my own prime minister. yes, president. this is a smoke screen to try to hide what's happening. catching dogs, no one gives a crop when need to start looking at the proper news. yes. you told me that the minutes are getting on like like rock winders? just yes, we know how to read about. we've no get something to do to replace party get. no, we don't. we're throwing the stupid stories which don't have any problems whatsoever. right? night. i do believe that the main thing that we should be doing is trying to preserve life. there is a possible conflict between the russia on the u. k. we should be talking about robert thompson, dogs. we are going to lose pretty shoulders on russian blood spelled when you're creating border, and that's where we should be cockpit more, maybe a diplomatic approach rather than a military strike. so let's forget about cats and dogs and bars. johnson and party get the rest of it. which let's concentrate on trying to ship lives and stop people from being killed at assessments for lab. and on the still dealing with the full light of a massive explosion that had a root in the summer of 2020 killing at least 200 people. the causes were never fully established. and now it's a merge that a human rights watch investigator, looking into that tragedy has been spied on lama fecky was recently alerted that her i phone may have been targeted by then the toria surveillance to pegasus. it allows attackers full access to a phone, camera, microphone call logs, emails, text messages, and more. the company in charge of the spyware is on, is really firm called s grip. it's to has been the center of numerous hacking scandals involving the phones of journalists, activists, and politicians. the company say though it only sell spyware to governments in order to fight terrorism and crime. already my colleague roister shae spoke with lama psyche, who claims she was targeted 5 times last year by b is really spyware. to we didn't know that there is about a framework in place which allows the sense of the tax to, to persist. there are now digital for fingerprints, it will help us to, to point the finger. and this is why we're really calling on stage to move forward and establishing a tory framework for the tray is a balanced technologies to be sure that these types of attacks no longer take place . you were doing an investigation of the bay roof explosion. this was august 2020. i think a lot of people may have forgotten about this. august 20 2200. 19 people died in that last of the pictures looked like an atomic bomb went off right barrel all along. the waterway that the crater the devastation from what was allegedly a plant of a storage of ammonia nitrite exploded that tell us about if you can quickly tell us about your investigation of the favorite explosion. do you think maybe you upset the wrong people so that during the times of the attack between april and august of last year, i was working very intensively on an investigation to see which of these government officials were culpable, were responsible for this last taken place. and this loss of life in the devastating destruction that the explosion ra if we have sinned to publish our findings. and our work is not in this case and is always with a transparent. so, you know, it is possible that these attacks were connected with this investigation. at the same time i was supervising were on a number of different crisis around the world. so again, it is very difficult to say which government was responsible and to understand even what that they may have taken and how they intend to use data. these are all questions that i still do not have answers for. how do you personally feel about this situation? miss fecky, i did you feel a sense of violation that your privacy has been intruded or of course, i mean my privacy that my family, that of my contacts. you know, i honestly was shocked when i learned that this attack taken place and really filled with a sense of dread about, again, what government has attacked me, what they stolen, how do they intend to use that data? it really is overwhelming to consider, you know, our phones are really, you know, much more than that. they're really, again playing too just so much, not particularly in time to close it. and so to know that my device could really be used to get me in the way to potentially try to undermine other people's rights. a 20 rule, a student from the u. k has avoided prison time despite being convicted of raping a 12 year old girl. after his arrest last year, jason joshua moscow confessed at 3 counts of rape and spent 7 months in custody. he was later released on bail and sentenced to 200 hours on paid work, expending a light sentence. the judge said she believed the man was not aware of the victim's real age. there is no suggestion of any p to fall tendencies at all. what instead, there is a young man who is relatively immature and possibly naive. the judge also confirmed of the spike being a preteen, the victim was all dating up and behaved in a quote, sexually suggestive way. ah, the me with the discuss what was a controversial verdict with a panel of guests earlier. i am the amused by the story. am i and i'm actually deeply offended by it that there's a 20 more 20 year old man. cannot recognize somebody who is significantly, actually, you know, not an adult, not even an adult. not no, a 15 year old, but somebody is 12. so that's just pretty sick making to me. it should be the case if everyone can form. so the recommended approach on all of the social media platforms that will be nobody present under the age of 13. and that's actually, you know, will be honest about their age and vote for certain graduations above, but i don't think it's a particularly alarming present, though. i do think it does raise questions about the, the degree of protection that very young children have in the law. and that, that, that there isn't as much distinction between children. the 30 and i was 13 as one might think. although there are differences that can be run in case of all the children platform that they were on is not one than i would personally just wanted to visit for a moment that both of them chose to be on there. there is a responsibility and especially on him more, he's an adult. he should have known or even had an inkling, but he was having a relationship with a child under age it'll, it's against the law and whatever, whatever, or the fact that she was on tinder doesn't give him a reason or an excuse to have a sexual relationship with her, if you embark on a level of abuse, you can be held george out because your identity is known. also, if your gender or your i saw the black ball because you know, the other people present on that level had had their age checked, it will prevent you unwittingly, being connected to somebody who is under a. i mean, we've done that. i saw children draw ease or drink or smoke until they're over the age. so be able to take risks responsibly. we shouldn't be doing that with social media, whether it has been shown great deal of hall. i'm going to be out. ah, can i get a recap of our breaking news today from houston, texas, where 3 police officers have been shots in broad daylight on thursday afternoon. a video purportedly from the incident shows officers in a frenetic gun buffalo firing multiple rise before seemingly being hit themselves on. we have heard reports from local police, the 3 officers are right now. and hospital at police are also reportedly looking for a suspect who fled in a white, mercedes, they've told people to keep away from the early initial reports from police was that officers were responding to a disturbance call when a chase ensued. ok, any at all significant developments from that story. we will of course, bring it to you here on our team, but time in moments for a fresh lie. some of the guys report a little check in with maxim stacey right after the shortest, all breaks, goodbye. he said, ah, ah exaggerated rhetoric, massive on shipments and endless threats. this is how nato presents its vision of pan european security. meanwhile, moscow wait to the u. s. and its allies to respond to its demands and vision for the say. the status quo is ah i'm ash kaiser. this is the kaiser report. yeah. we're still in el dante el salvador, bitcoin beach, where the weather is fantastic. stacy? right, you know, one thing you noticed here in our salvador is that there is plenty of food on the shelves. no shortage of food here. meanwhile, over in the united states, we've been looking at a lot of footage, lot of videos, a little photos on instagram and on twitter from people who are saying, wow, i went to the local supermarket and look, these are the shelves of meat or chicken or vegetables i've got a have vine for you here. you as to close borders to unvaccinated canadian mexican truckers on saturday the supply chain is already fragile, so it puts all of us in a precarious situation. oh yeah. well, this is interesting because it's like a carry over from the cupboard days. so during the covert days there were a lot of locked down to shut down.
