Ukrainian President Vladimir Zalinski has continued to make phone calls with
0:05
world leaders since President Donald Trump of the United States. US announced that President Vladimir Putin of Russia
0:12
will meet with him next week, Friday, in the US state of Alaska and stated while
0:17
answering questions from the White House reporters that there will be some swapping of territories to the
0:22
betterment of both Ukraine and Russia, specifically saying, "We will get some back and we will get some switched.
0:29
There will be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both. A statement that immediately and apparently drew the attention of the
0:35
Ukrainian president, Vladimir Zalinski, who have issued series of video and written press releases since President
0:42
Donald Trump made the announcement, insisting that Ukraine will not seed any of its territory to Russia for the
0:49
purpose of peace or to end the war, emphasizing that it was because President Putin occupied part of Ukraine
0:55
territory in the past and assembled its troops Ukrainian borders without preventive punishment.
1:01
made him to start full-scale war with Ukraine since 2022, adding that the path
1:07
to peace for Ukraine must be determined together with Ukraine. This is fundamental. It is important that joint
1:14
approaches and a shared vision work toward genuine peace, a consolidated position, ceasefire, end of occupation,
1:22
end of war. According to Trump, the highly anticipated meeting between myself as President of the United States
1:30
of America and President Vladimir Putin of Russia will take place next Friday,
1:35
August 15th, 2025 in the great state of Alaska. Further details to follow. Thank
1:42
you for your attention to this matter. Zilinski in a series of press releases on Saturday said, "I have not heard any
1:50
partners express doubts about America's ability to ensure that the war ends. The
1:55
president of the United States has the levers and the determination. Ukraine has supported all of President
2:01
Trump's proposals starting back in February. Ceasefire. All formats have
2:07
been supported. What is needed now is not a pause in the killings, but a real
2:12
lasting peace. Not a ceasefire sometime in the future, in months, but
2:18
immediately. President Trump told me so, and I fully support it. There must be a
2:24
just end to the war, and it is Russia that must end the war it started. Ukraine and all partners share the same
2:31
understanding of the need for a ceasefire, for an end to the killings. There is only one actor opposing this,
2:38
Putin. His only card is the ability to kill and he is trying to sell the sessation of killings at the highest
2:44
possible price. It is important that this does not mislead anyone. Results
2:49
are needed at the leader level. Dignified results, results that will save lives that the world will value and
2:56
for which it will be grateful to the leader who Nigeria police force has refuted claims that its men manhandled.

Sahare reporters publisher Amy Saware inside cell after the media personnel
3:09
honored the invitation sent him from the office of the inspector general of police IGP over allegations of forgery
3:16
and criminal defamation of characters with the police stating in a press release signed and made available after
3:22
the detained media publisher was released on Friday night that Saware allegedly brought bandages alongside
3:29
other personal items when he came to the station to honor the police invitation. And when the IGP ordered internal
3:36
investigation to ascertain if truly the media publisher was tortured as claimed, Sare refused to allow medical personnel
3:43
from the Nigeria police force check the alleged injury on his hand he had claimed he suffered as a result of the
3:50
police personnel brutality while inside cell. Meanwhile, as at the time, Sare
3:56
was released on Friday night, bandages were still seen wrapped around one of his hands, as seen in the video while he
4:03
was coming out from the IGP rapid response team, IT police detention
4:08
facilities in Abuja, as stated by Saware in the video. Shortly after his release
4:13
from detention facilities at the IGP rapid response team on Friday, Saware
4:19
posted on his social media handles and said that freedom is never given. It is
4:24
not a gift from the powerful nor a token handed down by the oppressor. It must be
4:30
seized with raw courage, with clarity, and with collective will. Those who sit
4:35
in power never give it up willingly. That's why we take it back because freedom is ours and we will fight until
4:42
it is no longer a dream but a lived reality. Nigeria police force in a
4:47
statement issued on August 8th, 2025 and made available to the public said the
4:53
Nigeria Police Force is compelled to address and decisively correct the recent wave of disinformation being
4:59
pedled in connection with the lawful arrest and detention of Mr.
5:04
Saware, a figure known for manipulating public narratives and weaponizing propaganda to malign state institutions
5:10
and their leadership, particularly the office of the inspector general of police. Contrary to the falsehoods being
5:17
circulated, Mr. Saware was arrested based on credible corroborated
5:23
allegations involving criminal offenses such as forgery, cyberstalking, and other infractions currently under active
5:30
investigation. The arrest was affected in full compliance with extant legal provisions and with strict adherence to
5:37
constitutional safeguards, due process, and the rights of the suspect. To be
5:42
clear, Mr. Sare was released on bail well within the 48-hour constitutional
5:48
window in accordance with the provisions of section 354 of the 1999 constitution of the Federal
5:56
Republic of Nigeria as amended. Human rights activist and founder of Sahare reporters news network saware has been
6:04
reportedly manhandled on Thursday early morning inside police cell by offices
6:09
from the inspector general of police IGP monitoring unit after the journalist
6:15
honored the invitation sent him from the office of the inspector general of police for a reason not stated but the
6:22
media personnel working with Saware in a statement on Thursday made available
6:27
through the verified personal social media handles of Saware, said that the police presented two petitions against
6:34
Saware over alleged forgery and defamation of character, adding that some police officers from the IGP
6:40
monitoring unit as early as 6:00 a.m. on Thursday, entered Sare cell at the Force
6:46
Intelligence Department in Abuja with alleged pretense to take the media publisher to court. But when the
6:53
journalist demanded to see the charges against him, he was allegedly handled roughly by a team of armed policemen.
7:00
This barister Adanju Deji petitioned the president of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tanubu,
7:06
demanding the immediate dismissal of the IGP Kyote Egen for allegedly abusing his
7:12
office by thus using his highranking office in the Nigeria Police Force to
7:17
settle personal scores. Although the Nigeria Police Force has not reacted to these allegations, but the force in a
7:24
press release on Thursday afternoon apparently made statements in relation to the current matters involving the
7:30
detained media publisher Om Saware by insisting and stating in the press
7:36
statement that the recent promotions in the Nigeria Police Force was based on merit and not selective, accusing an
7:43
unnamed online platform of allegedly sponsoring deliberate falsehoods to tarnish the image of the force while
7:49
also calling on officers and men of the force to desist from lobbying to get promoted saying the IGP has warned that
7:57
any police personnel caught lobbying to get promotion will be made to face disciplinary action. According to the
8:03
post published via Saware social media handles, the media team of the publisher said, "This morning at 6:00 a.m., a
8:11
police team led by a chief superintendent of police from the IGP monitoring unit forcibly gained entry
8:18
into Amy Saware's cell at the force intelligence department in Abuja, claiming they were taking him to court.
8:25
The team of nine officers including eight heavily armed personnel handled sir roughly when he asked to see the
8:31
charges and notify his lawyers breaking his arm in the process before taking him
8:37
to another police facility. The media team stated in another post the media
8:42
said the notorious former SARS officer DCP akin fakared presented two petitions
8:48
to Saware from the illegal IGP's office. One alleged forgery and the second written by Bukola Yi Kouti who was
8:56
promoted to a Anamra is no doubt one of the states in Nigeria experiencing incessant and very high rates of
9:02
kidnapping that in some cases do lead to the death of the abducted victims and killing of security operatives and some
9:09
other persons around the scene of the mostly monetary crimes of hostage taking for a ransom. Specifically, our crime
9:16
reporters gathered that there is hardly no week without one or two persons being kidnapped along the Anitra aeri federal
9:23
road in an amber state, especially between Oba community and Aiala town. As
9:28
we gathered that most victims of kidnapping in the state are hardworking small and medium-sized business owners
9:35
who most of whom struggled out of poverty to become wealthy, successful traders. This we learned there may be no
9:42
wealthy successful business owner along the Aiala Olu road left to be kidnapped
9:47
or forced to pay ransom to the kidnappers. While in Ober wealthy people are being kidnapped quietly and ransom
9:54
in millions are paid in silence to the kidnappers. According to members of the community, a young successful
10:01
businessman was kidnapped recently at a location between the over new road and old road junctions shortly after he
10:07
visited his building construction site. While we also learned that some people in the state to report or contract their
10:14
friends to kidnappers just to get a share from the ransom that will be paid afterwards or when such people have
10:20
issue or dispute with their friends or co-traders. It may interest you to know that the Anamra State Police Command
10:27
recently arrested a 24-year-old male suspect, Muan Victor, for allegedly
10:33
luring his friend to be kidnapped by his criminal gang in Uli, Iiala local government area of the state. and they
10:40
reportedly collected a ransom in dollars equivalent to 5.3 million naira with his
10:46
gang members just as gunman in a not too long distance time abducted a lawyer and
10:51
two other persons in Inoligu Auata local government area of an amra in addition
10:56
to previous cases of kidnapping of the owner of deorsia club chief Igi by
11:02
unknown gunman after the gunman killed numbers of persons along the new Oberi
11:07
road in Idili south local government area of an amber state with the number of those killed at the Porsche nightclub
11:14
said to be seven. But one of the security operatives was beheaded and another had his foot cut off and made
11:20
away with by the invading deadly kidnappers. This occurred shortly after a well-known native doctor or witch
11:27
doctor aka Aqua Oko Turaki was kidnapped after
11:33
his two personal aids killed in the vicinity of his hotel at Ober community before the kidnappers effortlessly took
11:39
him away and was released after ransom in millions were reportedly paid. That not all. On May 21st, 2022, shortly
11:48
after Professor Chukuma Soludo was sworn in as governor, gunman abducted the law
11:53
maker representing Auata. Two con Ghana Minister of Defense Edward Omain Bulmer

13:04
be stated cause of the incident as video footage showed the burnt beyond recognition bodies of those on board the
13:10
aircraft. The aircraft was from Ara and heading for a Bazi and is currently off
13:15
the radar. All efforts are being made to establish contact. The Ghana armed
13:20
forces had stated in a statement earlier on Wednesday. The government of Ghana has directed that all national flags be
13:27
flown at half mast in honor of the late government top officials Edward Omain Bulma, Minister for Defense and Ibrahim
13:35
Matala Muhammad, Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation among others who died in the
13:41
military helicopter crash. According to local media, the fatal incident occurred
13:47
on Wednesday, August 6th in the Adansi Acroofam district of the Ashanti region.
13:52
While the two ministers along with six others were on route to Abuasi for official duties. Announcing the
13:59
directive, Chief of Staff Julius Deborah expressed the government's deep sorrow regarding the loss of the two senior
14:05
public officials and others on board the helicopter. The president is emotionally down. The vice president is leading a
14:13
team to formally inform the families. Education Minister Haruna Idrasu told
14:18
news reporters following the tragic helicopter crash that claimed the lives of top government officials including
14:24
the defense and environment ministers. While announcing the death of the all passengers and crew members on board,
14:30
the Ghana chief of staff Julius Deborah said, "On behalf of the president of the republic, his excellency John Drammani
14:38
Muhammad, the vice president, Professor Nana Jane Aaku Aguumang who is with us
14:44
here and the government of Ghana, I have the unpleasant duty sadly to announce a
14:49
national tragedy involving the crash of a military helicopter this morning around the Adansi area in the Asha Anra
14:55
state government under the leadership of Governor Charles Chukuma Soludo has said that the state is currently in search of
15:02
justice over the killing of a young and creative fish farmer Martin Zafes once
15:08
well known by his business name as fish magnet who was reportedly shot on the leg while being kidnapped on Sunday the
15:15
27th of July 2025 at his residence in Ezin Fet village Okuno in Orca the
15:22
Anamra state capital this Dr. George Mogulu, the Labour Party candidate in
15:28
the forthcoming governorship election in the state, said that an amber state is no longer safe, adding that people are
15:34
being killed, slaughtered for their families to bury in silence while the state governor, Professor Charles
15:40
Chukuma Soludo looks the other way with no sympathy, condolence visit, or statement. Specifically, Mogulu said, "I
15:49
must speak frankly. An amra is no longer safe, not even in the state capital. Our
15:54
people are being slaughtered, kidnapped, and buried in silence while the government looks the other way. This is
16:01
not leadership. It is abandonment. Just recently, we lost over 10 lives in a
16:06
ghastly accident at Amichi Noi South local government area. Yet, there was no
16:12
statement, no condolence, not even a visit from the state government. Instead, we see street renamings and
16:18
political endorsement rallies. Where is our conscience? Mogulu stated while the former lawyer to Nami Kanu, the detained
16:25
Bafra agitation leader Barister Afeni Edio said the people of the state are
16:30
currently romancing with crimes, hiding criminals and painting absurd narratives on social media to glorify and justify
16:38
the rising crimes in the state. Saying the most frightening part, the reckless
16:43
energy our own people expend defending these killers. When you shield murderers because they are your kinsmen, you
16:50
embolden them. When you justify kidnappings under the guise of ethnic pride, you leave the gates wide open for
16:57
the real external aggressors like armed herdsmen whose invasion will come when we are weakest and most divided. An Amra
17:05
state commissioner for information law metha made the government position known on Sunday after he led other government

broadens representation for those previously unheard. The president said his administration is committed to

26:15
not want to have high blood pressure, adding that the Super Falcons kept him hungrier as his wife. The first lady of
26:22
Nigeria, Olarmy Tanubu, was at the kitchen preparing his food while watching the match, emphasizing, "The
26:29
first lady almost abandoned his dinner because of the football match and the Super Falcons on Monday could be seen
26:35
singing, praising, and dancing with the first lady. Olubu by thus reversing the
26:41
negativity of the popular viral song of n your mama be this to n our mama be
26:47
this to accept the first lady as the mother of all in the nation barely 10 days after Israeli soldiers bombed the
26:54
holy family Catholic church in Gaza Benjamin Netanyahu the state of Israel
26:59
prime minister has said that Israel is now being portrayed as the enemy of Christians stating that Israel has a
27:06
thriving Christian community the only thriving Christian community in the broad radius of the Middle East, where
27:12
Christians are not tolerated, they're cherished, adding, "You can light Christmas trees in Nazareth. But in
27:19
Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus, when Israel left and the Palestinian authority came in, the Christian
27:26
majority shrank from 80% to under 20% because there was no more Israel to
27:31
protect them. Though Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not mention the
27:36
bombing of the Catholic Church in Gaza that led to the killing of three persons and injuring to several people,
27:42
including the parish priest, it could be recalled that the Israel Defense Forces IDF action against the Christian holy
27:49
place in Gaza sparked global condemnations with the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo I 14th, in a
27:56
statement on Sunday, July 20th, 2025, while speaking after his angelist this
28:02
prayer read out the names of those killed in the incident and said, "I appeal to the international community to
28:08
observe humanitarian law and respect the obligation to protect civilians as well
28:13
as the prohibition of collective punishment of indiscriminate use of force and force displacement of the
28:19
population." During a church event on Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while speaking at the Day
28:26
Stars together as one event in Jerusalem with Pastor Paula White, leader of the
28:32
White House faith office said, "Iran is now being projected as the friend of the Americans." Word to word of Prime
28:39
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speech as transcribed and made available by the office of the Israel prime minister on
28:46
Sunday reads below. Thank you, Joanie. Thank you Dayar. Thank you Paula. Thank
28:52
you ambassadors and the many friends of Israel in the Christian world. This is the city and the land where it all
28:59
began. The Judeo-Christian tradition that promoted the belief in monotheism,
29:04
a single god that developed the idea of the sanctity of life, the sanctity of
29:09
individual life, the idea of freedom. In an ancient world that was swamped with
29:14
massive slavery to build these ancient empires, the Jewish people came out with the idea that slavery should be limited
29:21
and ultimately removed. This was revolutionary. The beginning of the idea
29:26
of freedom began in this land and that idea spread throughout the centuries and
29:31
especially in modern times and changed the world. It gives hope to the world.
29:36
It gives meaning to our lives. It gives a bond between the world's greatest democracy, the United States of America,
29:44
and the world's vibrant democracy here in Israel. And that's a partnership that is bonded in faith. Royal Thai Army and
29:51
the Cambodia National Ministry of Defense have both denied firing the 10 projectiles that destroyed civilian
29:57
houses and properties at Emerald Triangle, a city in Lao on Thursday, just as both government establishments
30:04
confirmed early in the morning on Sunday that fighting continued through Saturday night to Sunday morning night despite
30:11
President Donald Trump of the United States US statement on Saturday that he
30:16
has spoken on phone with both the prime minister of Cambodia and the acting prime minister of Thailand asking the
30:24
two parties to agree on immediate ceasefire and failure to do so. According to Trump, US will not make any
30:31
business deal with both countries. In his words, Trump said, "We happen to be
30:36
by coincidence currently dealing on trade with both countries but do not want to make any deal with either
30:43
country if they are fighting and I have told them so." The call with Thailand is being made momentarily. The call with
30:50
Cambodia has ended, but expect a call back regarding war stoppage and ceasefire based on what Thailand has to
30:57
say. I am trying to simplify a complex situation. Many people are being killed
31:02
in this war. But it very much reminds me of the conflict between Pakistan and India which was brought to a successful
31:10
halt. The Lao government had on Friday reported that 10 bombs were found,
31:15
having been fired into civilian areas and affecting local residents in the Emerald Triangle, a town in Lao that
31:21
borders both Lao, Thailand, and Cambodia. A statement from the Lao People's Armed Forces on Saturday
31:28
afternoon refuted earlier media reports claiming clashes between the Lao People's Armed Forces and Cambodian
31:35
armed personnel, describing the reports as untrue. Denying the shelling in Lao,
31:40
the Royal Thailand Army in a statement on Saturday said that the Royal Thai
31:46
Army clarifies case of artillery shells landing in Lao PDR territory in Emerald
31:51
Triangle area confirms investigation found they were not Thai forces ammunition. According to news reports,
31:58
on the 24th of July 2025 at approximately 940 hours, 10 artillery
32:05
shells landed in the territory of the Lao People's Democratic Republic, Lao PDR, in the Emerald Triangle area, which
32:12
is the border junction between Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia without clear confirmation as to which side the shells
32:19
belong to. And preliminarily, there were no reports of casualties or property damage from the incident. Major General
32:27
Winintai Sububari, Army spokesperson, issued a clarification that following
32:32
factf finding investigations and coordination with security agencies of the Lao PDR, it is confirmed that they
32:39
were definitely not shells from the Thai military side and the Royal Thai Army has confidence in its capability to
32:46
control weapon usage effectively. Appropriately, Asia is apparently becoming a continent of war as hope of
32:52
achieving peace in the continent appeared slim since 2023 when fresh wars
32:57
broke out in the Middle East Asia after Hamas attacked Israel, forcing Israel to launch a multifront wars in Gaza,
33:05
Lebanon, Syria, Iran, and Yemen. This occurred as Russia that has parts of its territory in Asia had in 2022 launched a
33:13
fullscale war against its neighboring European country Ukraine which the
33:18
multiple wars have led to millions of deaths with many in the world expecting an end soon. But while many in the world
33:26
hoped for permanent end to the deadly wars, another fresh war broke out during the week on Thursday in the Southeast
33:32
Asia between Cambodia and Thailand after soldiers from Royal Thai Army of 14th
33:38
Infantry Battalion on Wednesday stepped on a landmine at Huibon Chong and Ma Nam
33:44
Yuan district, Yuban Rajathani Province within the Thai Cambodia border area
33:49
causing severe injury to one Thailand soldier while four other solders soldiers sustained some level of
33:55
injuries making the acting prime minister of Thailand Fam Way to recall
34:01
the country's ambassador from Panam Pen and expelled Cambodia's ambassador to Thailand leading to heavy military
34:07
confrontation starting next day morning which Cambodian news agency on Saturday
34:13
reported that tens of thousands of innocent Cambodians including children,
34:18
pregnant women and the elderly have been forced to flee the military aggression along the border areas including
34:24
Priyavhier, Odaminci, and Perset. And the Royal Thai Army also on Saturday
34:30
released a video of its men hoisting the Thai flag at a location and stated that the Thai national flag was raised at top
34:38
Fu Makua following Thai military operations to assault and seize the Fu Makua area where it said the Cambodian
34:45
forces had been heavily positioned, adding that the area was successfully captured during the evening of war on
34:51
Friday while the prime minister of Thailand Pyongan Shinuatu is currently
34:56
on suspension. blamed the cause of the war on alleged powerful criminals in Cambodia, saying the conflict stems from
35:04
the Thai government's efforts to crack down on call center crimes, dismantling a network of immense financial interests
35:12
linked to influential groups in Cambodia. Notwithstanding, the prime minister of Cambodia, Sam Movaba Han
35:20
Manet, in a statement called on Cambodians not to attack businesses and citizens of Thailand living in Cambodia,
35:28
adding that after the prime minister of Malaysia and the rotating chairman of Azian, Anoir Ibrahim, intervened in the
35:34
matter on Thursday, both countries agreed to a ceasefire slated to start on Friday by 12:00 a.m. But an hour after
35:42
Malaysia prime minister told him that Thailand has agreed to the ceasefire, Thailand rescended
