The Canadian Press-Police arrest at least 100 in sweeping operation to dismantle Ottawa protest-Fri, February 18, 2022, 7:49 p.m.

OTTAWA — Police officers descended on anti-government protesters in Ottawa on Friday, arresting at least 100 people and towing more than 20 vehicles in a push to end a three-week occupation that has reverberated across Canada and around the world.Dozens of officers who had gathered in the bitterly cold downtown core following an overnight snowstorm started to move mid-morning under a bright sun, pushing the protesters back and making arrests along the way.Supported by officers on horseback and on rooftops, lines of police slowly advanced on an intersection just east of Parliament Hill, isolating one group of protesters.Police blasted warnings over a loudspeaker before officers advanced intermittently, forcing back dozens of demonstrators, some of whom linked arms or laid down in resistance while others hurled insults or tried to flee.Officers in military green, some with gas masks and what appeared to be tear-gas guns, converged on the protesters from another direction in an apparent pincer movement before a third group of police boxed them in.As officers closed on that group, other protesters watched from their main camp further west on Wellington Street near the National War Memorial and Parliament Hill, urging their embattled comrades to “hold the line” and hurling their own invective.By evening, the situation grew more heated. A group of mounted police suddenly charged a large group of protesters facing police lines near the Senate in an apparent effort to move the crowd up toward Wellington Street. Many in the shocked crowd ran, some yelling, "You are trampling us!"Ottawa police said on Twitter that protesters had continued "assaultive behaviour" with the police line and to prevent an escalation or further injury, mounted officers were sent in to create a safe distance between officers and protesters.As this was happening, police said, a bicycle was thrown at the feet of one of the horses in an attempt to injure it. One person was arrested for allegedly intentionally harming a police service animal."Protesters are assaulting officers, have attempted to remove officers' weapons. All means of de-escalation have been used to move forward in our goal of returning Ottawa to its normalcy," the police service tweeted.The police action, which included the RCMP, Ontario Provincial Police, local officers and units from other cities, followed an initial round of arrests Thursday against key organizers.It also came after repeated warnings and signals in the past two days that police were preparing for a crackdown following weeks of accommodating the demonstration, which had left many Ottawa residents angry, frazzled and critical of the city’s police force.Ottawa police interim chief Steve Bell told a news conference Friday that clearing the area will take time, but the operation is "deliberate and methodical" and police are in control on the ground.Those arrested have been charged with various offences including mischief, he said, adding police are still urging demonstrators to leave peacefully.He said there has been no need to interact with the Children's Aid Society of Ottawa, but it still "shocks and surprises" him that children are being put in harm's way in the middle of a demonstration where a police operation was unfolding."We will continue to look after their safety and security. But we implore all the parents who have kids in there — get kids out of there," Bell said. "They do not need to be in the middle of this. It is not a safe place for them."Ottawa police have accused some protesters of putting children between themselves and advancing officers. The allegation was not independently verified.As police pushed back the protesters, tow trucks moved in to remove some of the dozens of big rigs and other vehicles that have been used to essentially blockade the streets around Parliament Hill since late last month.Police were also staffing dozens of checkpoints around the downtown core designed to prevent any new protesters from arriving to reinforce those inside the perimeter.Rows of officers moved in on truckers who were parked at a major intersection near the Parliament buildings, where those inside such as Dale Sherstobitoff were ordered out of their cabs and onto the street."I'm embarrassed of our prime minister. I'm embarrassed of these cops," she said. "This shouldn't be happening in Canada."While some protesters on the outer edges of the downtown protest were starting to pack their bags and rolling suitcases into the back of their pickups ahead of leaving, others said they were unperturbed by the threat of arrest and planned to stay.Some continued to gather in the street in front of Parliament Hill, delivering speeches from a makeshift stage.Yet even as some were digging in, key organizers and figures within the protest such as Pat King were bowing out.King initially urged demonstrators to walk to Parliament Hill and jackknife rigs in front of tow trucks to prevent them from moving vehicles. But he later reversed course, telling protesters on a Facebook livestream to retreat from downtown Ottawa and regroup at a nearby truck stop.He later posted a video of police arresting him in his vehicle.Two other protest organizers — Chris Barber and Tamara Lich — were arrested Thursday. Barber has also been charged with counselling to disobey a court order and to obstruct police.A judge with the Ontario Court of Justice granted bail to Barber. Justice Julie Bourgeois released him on a $100,000 bond and on the conditions he leave Ontario by Feb. 23, not publicly endorse the convoy or have any contact with the other major protest organizers. Lich is to appear in Ottawa courtroom on Saturday morning and was to spend the night in jail awaiting her bail hearing.King, Lich and other organizers of the so-called Freedom 2022 protests also saw a temporary freeze to their bank accounts — including Bitcoin and cryptocurrency funds — following an Ontario Superior Court ruling on Thursday.In addition, a class-action lawsuit on behalf of thousands of downtown Ottawa residents seeks millions of dollars in damages for the noise and serious disruptions caused by the protest.Some protesters have said they came to Ottawa simply to demand that COVID-19 measures be lifted. But others, including those who claim to be leading the convoy, have demanded the Liberal government be ousted.The protest in Ottawa quickly spread to other parts of the country, disrupting business and trade amid concerns far-right extremists and hate groups were trying to use the demonstrations to advance their ideological agendas.Police started to clear the protesters in southern Ontario, Alberta and elsewhere earlier this week. The Ottawa force's chief resigned Wednesday amid intense criticism over the state of lawlessness downtown.While police were clearing the streets outside, members of Parliament were forced to cool their heels on a divisive debate around the Liberal government’s decision this week to invoke the Emergencies Act in response to the protests.Government House leader Mark Holland said House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota and House leaders from all parties agreed to cancel the sitting on the advice of parliamentary security.The government was closely monitoring the police operation and would await further advice from security officials on when the House could reopen, he added.MPs had been scheduled for another daylong debate of the government's emergency orders, which took effect earlier this week but require confirmation by the House of Commons and Senate.The new powers include the ability to freeze bank accounts of protest participants and bar people from assembling in specific places or joining protests that threaten trade, critical infrastructure, individuals or property.It is also now illegal to bring children to within 500 metres of the blockades or provide supplies or property to participants.The measures are facing legal challenges including from the Canadian Civil Liberties Association. However, they are expected to receive House of Commons approval with support of the Liberals and NDP and opposition from the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois.The Senate was also expected to begin debate Friday but issued a notice saying it would remain adjourned until Monday at 2 p.m. ET.— with files from Stephanie Taylor and Mike Blanchfield-This report by The Canadian Press was first published Feb. 18, 2022.-Lee Berthiaume, Jordan Press, Marie Woolf and Erika Ibrahim, The Canadian Press

Foreign Ministry issues fresh call for Israelis in Ukraine to leave immediately-‘An eruption [of war] will be quick and severe,’ ministry says, amid growing Western warnings that Russia may soon launch invasion; Israeli embassy in Kyiv kept open for now-By TOI staff-FEB 19,22-Today, 8:56 pm

The Foreign Ministry on Saturday issued a fresh call for Israelis in Ukraine to immediately leave the country, amid growing Western warnings of a looming Russian invasion.The ministry made the appeal after holding a situational assessment and following talks that director-general Alon Ushpiz held with unspecified figures at the Munich Security Conference.A Foreign Ministry statement also cited “the events in eastern Ukraine,” apparently referring to intensifying clashes there between Ukrainian forces and Russian-backed separatists.“An eruption [of war] will be quick and severe,” the statement said.The ministry said it decided to keep Israeli Ambassador Michael Brodsky in Kyiv to assist Israelis seeking to leave. He and embassy staff will open the consular section on Sunday “to provide travel documents to citizens that require this,” according to the statement.The Foreign Ministry also said it was keeping tabs on the decisions by the US and Britain to move their embassies in Kyiv to the city of Lviv, “with the aim of safeguarding the lives of the State of Israel’s envoys in Ukraine while providing a response to Israeli citizens.”The Foreign Ministry issued a travel warning for Ukraine last weekend and urged Israelis in the country to immediately leave, a call repeated throughout the week by Israeli officials. These pleas have been met with a mixed response.In an interview with The Times of Israel on Tuesday at his Kyiv office, Brodsky said Israelis should immediately leave Ukraine and not count on rescue flights to extract them if war breaks out.Israel’s Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky. (The Israeli Embassy in Ukraine)-The Foreign Ministry’s latest appeal came as Germany and France urged their citizens to leave Ukraine, as deadly clashes broke out between Ukrainian forces and Russian-backed separatists and Moscow test-fired nuclear-capable missiles in a defiant show of force.Both German airline Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines said they would stop flights to Kyiv and Odessa from Monday until the end of February, but would maintain flights to western Ukraine.AFP contributed to this report.    

Putin oversees nuclear drills as US warns Russia ‘poised to strike’ Ukraine-US defense chief says Russian forces moving into positions ‘to be able to conduct an attack’; Ukrainian soldier killed amid ‘dramatic increase’ in clashes with separatists-By Michael MAINVILLE and Dmitry Zaks    Today, 4:35 pm-FEB 19,22

MOSCOW (AFP) — Russia test-fired nuclear-capable missiles on Saturday as Russian President Vladimir Putin oversaw a dramatic military exercise and as the United States again warned that it believes Moscow plans to invade Ukraine within days.Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky meanwhile arrived in Germany to shore up support among Western allies, despite a significant increase in shelling in the country’s east in which a Ukrainian soldier was killed.The fierce US warnings and the evacuation of civilians from Russian-backed rebel regions in Ukraine have brought fears of a major conflict in Europe to their highest level after weeks of tensions.The Kremlin insists it has no plans to attack its neighbor, which has angered Moscow by seeking closer ties with NATO and the European Union.But Moscow is doing nothing to reduce fears, with state media accusing Kyiv of plotting an assault on the rebel-held pro-Russia enclave in eastern Ukraine.Russian television showed images of Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko sitting at a round table in the Kremlin situation room, in front of a bank of screens showing military commanders as they test-fired their latest hypersonic, cruise and nuclear-capable ballistic missiles.“All the missiles hit their targets, confirming their performance objectives,” the Kremlin said, adding that the drills included Tu-95 bombers and submarines.Earlier, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov had made a reference to nuclear launch codes.“Such test launches, of course, are impossible without the head of state. You know about the famous black suitcase and the red button,” he said.‘Poised to strike’Russia’s defense ministry said the exercise involved nearly all branches of the armed forces, including its strategic rocket forces, as well the Northern and Black Sea fleets, which have nuclear-armed submarines.The US insists that, with some 150,000 Russian troops on Ukraine’s borders — as many as 190,000, when including the Russian-backed separatist forces in the east — Moscow has already made up its mind to invade.Some of the Russian forces, around 30,000 troops, are in Belarus for an exercise which is due to end on Sunday. Moscow has said that these forces will return to barracks, but US intelligence is concerned that they could take part in an invasion of Ukraine.US President Joe Biden said Friday that he was sure Putin had made the call to invade, regardless of warnings that it would trigger huge Western sanctions, and the attack could come in the next few days with targets that would include the capital Kyiv.On Saturday, visiting NATO ally Lithuania, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said Russian forces “are now poised to strike” and “moving into the right kinds of positions to be able to conduct an attack.”Russia has announced a series of withdrawals of its forces from near Ukraine in recent days, saying they were taking part in regular military exercises and accusing the West of “hysteria” with claims of an invasion plan.But Putin has also stepped up his rhetoric, demanding written guarantees that Ukraine will never be allowed to join NATO and that the US-led military alliance roll back deployments in eastern Europe to positions from decades ago.‘Dramatic increase’ in clashes-The volatile frontline between Ukraine’s army and separatists in the Moscow-backed breakaway regions of Donetsk and Luhansk has seen a “dramatic increase” in ceasefire violations, international monitors from the OSCE said.Hundreds of artillery and mortar attacks were reported in recent days, in a conflict that has rumbled on for eight years and claimed the lives of more than 14,000 people.Ukraine’s armed forces accused the rebels of a huge new wave of attacks on Saturday, saying there had been dozens of exchanges of fire by 7:00 a.m. local time, with one soldier dying from shrapnel wounds.The soldier, a captain in an intelligence unit, was the fourth Ukrainian soldier to die in the first seven weeks of this year. At least 66 were killed in 2021, according to official sources.The rebels, who also accused Ukrainian forces of new attacks on Saturday, declared general mobilizations in the two regions, calling up men to fight even as they announced mass evacuations of women and children into Russia.The governor of the neighboring Russian region of Rostov declared a state of emergency as the first busloads of several thousand crossed the border, followed by Russian state media camera crews.Moscow and the rebels have accused Kyiv of planning an assault to retake the regions, claims fiercely denied by Ukraine and dismissed by the West as part of Russian efforts to manufacture a pretext for war.Russia’s Investigative Committee, which probes major crimes, said it had opened an investigation into media reports that a shell fired by Ukrainian forces exploded about a kilometer across the border in Russia’s Rostov region.Russian news agencies earlier quoted anonymous sources as saying the shell had landed in the region, but had not caused any injuries or damage.Despite the invasion warnings, Zelensky’s office said he would not change plans to personally attend Saturday’s Munich Security Conference.“Volodymyr Zelensky expects concrete agreements concerning the delivery to our country of additional military and financial support,” his office said, adding that he would return to Kyiv later Saturday.

US secretary of defense: Russian troops 'poised to strike' Pro-Russia Ukraine rebels mobilize as fighting escalates; Kyiv says soldier killed-Separatists urge reservists to show up at enlistment offices; concern rises that clashes will be used by Russia as pretext for invasion; Ukrainian soldier dies in Donetsk shelling-By Agencies-FEB 19,22-Today, 1:22 pm

Separatist leaders in eastern Ukraine ordered a full military mobilization Saturday amid a spike of violence in the war-torn region and fears in the West that Russia might use the strife as a pretext for an invasion.Denis Pushilin, the head of the pro-Russia separatist government in Ukraine’s Donetsk region, released a statement announcing a full troop mobilization and urging reservists to show up at military enlistment offices.A similar announcement quickly followed from Leonid Pasechnik, a separatist leader in the Luhansk region.Pushilin cited an “immediate threat of aggression” from Ukrainian forces, accusations that Ukrainian officials vehemently denied earlier.“I appeal to all the men in the republic who can hold weapons to defend their families, their children, wives, mothers,” Pushilin said. ”Together we will achieve the coveted victory that we all need.”The separatists and Ukrainian forces have been fighting for almost eight years. But the violence along the line of contact separating the two sides, including a humanitarian convoy hit by shelling, has risen in recent days.US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said on Saturday during a visit to Lithuania that Russian troops on Ukraine’s border were getting ready to strike.“They are uncoiling and are now poised to strike,” he said, adding that troops were “moving into the right kinds of positions to be able to conduct an attack.”With an estimated 150,000 Russian troops now posted around Ukraine’s borders, the long-simmering separatist conflict could provide the spark for a broader attack.Ukraine’s military said shelling killed a soldier Saturday in the government-held part of the Donetsk region and that separatist forces were placing artillery in residential areas to try and provoke a response.Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky headed to Germany on Saturday to shore up support among Western allies.On Friday, the rebels began evacuating civilians to Russia with an announcement that appeared to be part of their and Moscow’s efforts to paint Ukraine as the aggressor.US President Joe Biden said late Friday he was now “convinced” that Russian President Vladimir Putin has decided to invade Ukraine and assault the capital, Kyiv.Biden, who for weeks had said the US was not sure if Putin was determined to send troops into the neighboring country, cited American intelligence as the source of his ominous assessment.“As of this moment, I’m convinced he’s made the decision,” Biden said. “We have reason to believe that.”He reiterated that the assault could occur in the “coming days.”Biden reiterated his threat of crushing economic and diplomatic sanctions against Russia if it does invade Ukraine, and pressed Putin to reconsider.A US defense official said an estimated 40% to 50% of the ground forces deployed in the vicinity of the Ukrainian border have moved into attack positions closer to the border.The shift has been underway for about a week, other officials have said, and does not necessarily mean Putin has decided to begin an invasion. The defense official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal US military assessments.The official also said the number of Russian ground units, known as battalion tactical groups, in the border area had grown to as many as 125, up from 83 two weeks ago. Each group has 750 to 1,000 soldiers.Meanwhile, the Kremlin announced that it would conduct massive nuclear drills Saturday, and Putin pledged to protect Russia’s national interests against what it sees as encroaching Western threats.Russia’s defense ministry said Saturday’s “planned exercises” will test launches of ballistic and cruise missiles.It said the exercises would involve nearly all branches of Russia’s armed forces, including its aerospace and strategic rocket forces, as well the Northern and Black Sea fleets, which have nuclear-armed submarines.“Putin, most likely, will watch the exercises from the situation center,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.“Such test launches, of course, are impossible without the head of state. You know about the famous black suitcase and the red button,” Peskov said in reference to nuclear launch codes.However, lines of communication between Moscow and Washington remain open: the American and Russian defense chiefs spoke Friday. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov agreed to meet next week.Immediate worries focused on eastern Ukraine, where Ukrainian forces have been fighting the pro-Russia rebels since 2014 in a conflict that has killed some 14,000 people. Violations of a 2015 ceasefire agreement, including shelling and shooting along the line of contact, have been common.However, violence has escalated in recent days. A bombing struck a car outside the main government building in the rebel-held city of Donetsk on Friday, according to an Associated Press journalist there.The head of the separatist forces, Denis Sinenkov, said the car was his, the Interfax news agency reported. There were no reports of casualties and no independent confirmation of the circumstances of the blast. Targeted violence is unusual in rebel-held cities.Adding to the tensions, two explosions shook the rebel-controlled city of Luhansk early Saturday. The Luhansk Information Center said one of the blasts was in a natural gas main. The center cited witnesses as saying the other was at a vehicle service station.There was no immediate word on injuries or a cause. Luhansk officials blamed a gas main explosion earlier in the week on sabotage.By Saturday morning, the separatists in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, which form Ukraine’s industrial heartland known as the Donbas, said more than 6,600 residents of the rebel-controlled areas had been evacuated to Russia.Separatist officials announced plans Friday to evacuate hundreds of thousands of people. Russia has issued about 700,000 passports to residents of the rebel-held territories. Claims that Russian citizens are being endangered might be used as justification for military action.Pushilin, the head of the Donetsk rebel government, said women, children and the elderly would go first, and that Russia has prepared facilities for them. Pushilin alleged in a video statement that Zelensky was going to order an imminent offensive in the area.Metadata from two videos posted by the separatists announcing the evacuation show that the files were created two days ago, The Associated Press confirmed.US authorities have alleged that the Kremlin’s effort to come up with an invasion pretext could include staged, prerecorded videos.Authorities began moving children from an orphanage in Donetsk, and other residents boarded buses for Russia. Long lines formed at gas stations as more people prepared to leave on their own.Putin ordered the Russian government to offer a payment of 10,000 rubles (about $130) to each evacuee, equivalent to about half of an average monthly salary in the war-ravaged Donbas region.Around the volatile line of contact, a UN humanitarian convoy came under rebel shelling in the Luhansk region, Ukraine’s military chief said. No casualties were reported. Rebels denied involvement and accused Ukraine of staging a provocation.Ukraine denied planning any offensive.“We are fully committed to diplomatic conflict resolution only,” Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba tweeted.
