have a good day. ♪ >> moscow said an amnesty report is fake when russia may be guilty of war crimes in syria. mystery over why the prime minister of georgia has resigned. a remarkable tale of

survival. a 19-year-old trapped in rubble. >> we'll have all the sport. the mince pies and goodbyes. manchester boss storms out of the press conference. >> a gas attack has taken place in syria. witnesses say government helicopters fired missiles containing the nerve agent sa sarni. this despite an internal weapons watchdog saying the last of syria's chemical weapons have been shipped out of the country

for destruction last year. >> this is not the first time there have been reports of gas used as weapon in syria. opposition sources say that these people were exposed to gas when missiles were shot in a rebel-held neighborhood on the outskirts of damascus. >> these rockets were carrying sarin gas, as a result five people were killed. including a 12-year-old boy. more than 30 injured. mostly civilians. the sarin gas was the worst us used. the symptoms are runny nose, saliva, bleeding, shortness of breath and dilated pupils. this caused the death of five victims. >> the opposition-controlled areas where chemical agents were

deployed in 2013. hundreds of people were killed. an u.n. investigation team later confirmed sarin had been used. it didn't blame any side. but many western governments said that the forces loyal to the syrian government were responsible. a deal was reached between russia and the u.s. the organization for the prohibition for chemical weapons then confirmed that the equipment for mixing and produ producing chemical weapons had been destroyed, but since then there have been reports of chemical attacks. the ocpw concluded that gas had been use, and the fact-finding mission was not mandated to assign any blame but diplomats said that the findings added to evidence that isil had obtained and is using chemical weapons in iraq and syria. that wasn't the only attack

investigated. in the syrian province of idlib, there were several incidents between march and may which the fact-finding mission said likely involved the use of one or more toxic chemicals involving chlorine. the u.s. envoy has warned that the use of toxic weapons is becoming increasingly common in the sirral war. voices are growing louder accusing the government of failing to declare its whole stock pile. >> well joining me now from washington, d.c. for more on this story is the former u.s. state department adviser and senior fellow, thanks for being with us on the program. do you think amnesty is likely to be right, and sarin is still being used in syria? >> i would be careful making any definitive statements about which kind of chemical was used in this recent attack. it is very difficult based on

the initial reports of symptoms from victims to make any kind of definitive determination. what we do know is that since the declared stock pile of some 1300 metric tons of sarin and other deadly chemicals was eliminated, there have been continuing reports of use against rebel areas by oftentimes by helicopters, which can only be flown by the government. so most of these uses, though, seem to have been chlorine, which is not a prohibitive chemical, but certainly it's use in war is prohibitive as a chemical weapon. also as the report mentioned mustard has been found to be used. mustard is much more likely as a possible prohibitive agent than

sarin because it is seizier to make and has a longer shelf life as a nerve gas. clearly the syrian government is operating outside international law, and outside the very chemical weapons convention that it recently agreed to. and it's time for the allies of the syrian government, namely russia and iran, to pressure that government to cease and desist. >> even if syria has not been using sarin, how easy would it have been for the country to hold onto some stock piles of chemical agents whether it was mustard gas, chlorine or, indeed, sarin. how easy would it have been to hold on to that stock pile even though it was supposed to be taken away and destroyed? >> well, we cannot rule this out. this happened in a case of libya. there were undeclared stocks that were found later. certainly the accounting on chemical weapons production can

be inprecise. this is one of the reasons that the u.s. estimated that iraq still had significant amounts of chemical weapons after the first gulf war. that was not because they did it was because their accounting was not accurate. one cannot rule it out. i think we can be fairly confident that the vast majority of really lethal stocks have been removed from syria and destroyed as well as the facilities necessary to manufacture or mix the chemicals. >> great to give your thoughts and opinions. thanks so much. >> well, russia has denied using cluster bombs in syria after the human rights organization amnesty international suggested its airstrikes could institute war crimes. at least 200 civilians have been killed in the past three months.

russian authorities allegedly lied to cover up two strikes. the groups accuse russia and syrian forces of using cluster bombs, but russia said that there is a lack of evidence in amnesty's report. >> to say there is not eched when we have provided photographs of impact sites, weaponry. we have spoken to survivors of attacks there, dozens and dozens of credible video clips and images of dead civilians, of bodies in parts and so on, statements from the ministry defense itself in russia where they say they've carried out attacks in various sites and vicinity of them. it would be interesting to know from russia what more evidence they would like. there is a ton of evidence that they have committed probably war crimes and they've not stood up to that at all. >> peter sharp is in moscow for us and said that the russian military has rejected reports

saying that it is full of lies and trite clichés. >> so far the defense ministry in moscow has been reluctant to comment on syria' syria--serious claims by amnesty international. today they categorically deny the report. the same clichés. the same fakes. it's nothing but a flood of lies empty, and without any proof. >> we familiarized ourselves with the contents of this report, and as usual there is nothing concrete and nothing new published in it. in regards to the suggestion about the use of cluster bombs in syria, the russian air force does not use them. >> the russian defense ministry said that they were unprecedently open about their operations in syria, and they stated categorically there were

no munitions in cluster bombs in the air base in the country. the purpose of all these manipulations by amnesty is to smear others. >> well, al jazeera's roslind jordan lives us from washington, d.c. there is mounting pressure on russia other its airstrikes in syria. what sorts of response has there been to russian strategy? >> well, the u.s. has not been pleased with the russian strategy because even though russia said it is going after isil fighters, the u.s. does not see evidence that it says supports that claim. it believes that russi russians are going after opponents of president bashar al-assad, supporting his military in that ongoing civil war. so this report would not come as a surprise that there may be alleged atrocities as part of the russian effort to help support bashar al-assad's hold on power.

>> amnesty has also suggested it might be looking at u.s.-led airstrikes in syria. is that likely to cause some concern in washington? >> well, this is something that the u.s. has been have much sensitive to since it started airstrikes in iraq in 2014 and six weeks later in september 2014 in syria. in fact, at the end of septemb september 2014 amnesty wrote a letter to the secretary of state john kerry saying that it was very concerned that the expanding air war against isil could result in unintended civilian casualties, and it urged both kerry as well as the defense department to be extremely, extremely rigorous in how they orchestrated the air war against isil. now there has been only one u.s. military investigation of an incident that involved unintended casualties, that's

the military's phrase, not mine, and this involves airstrikes against members of the group an al-qaeda affiliate in syria in november 2014. two children were killed in that incident, and at least two adults also civilians were injured in that incident. it took six months for the military to investigate and they say that while they believed that they were targeting a military target, that they deeply regretted that civilians were injured and killed in that incident. we haven't seen a similar report from amnesty even though it has put the u.s. government on notice that it is looking at the conduct of the u.s.-led coalitions airstrikes. not just in syria but inside iraq as well. >> ros jordan with that update. thanks, ros. >> the request for an international arrest warrant for a murder in the 1990s.

nowhere to go. we'll tell you why thousands of cubans are stuck in costa rica. and in sport. >> after several young men died while playing american football in the u.s. this year, coaches and researchers have come up with what seems like a counter intuitive way to try to make the game safer. >> first, georgia's minister prime minister irakly garibashvili has resigned. he gave a press conference outlining his plan for next ye year. >> motherland and god are eternal. that's why i decided to resign

as prime minister. i would like to wish our future prime minister the best. >> a passenger plane is forced to make an emergency landing in the united states. the southwest flight 2547 was en route to chicago with 139 people on board. and this is, indeed, the plane arriving right now at oakland airport. it's been forced to return to that airport in california because of problems it developed with its landing gear. but clearly the pilot has managed to safely land the aircraft without the use of landing gear, something that they're well trained to do in flight simulators. but it appears the aircraft has been able to safely land at oakland international airport in california. it was forced to return there because of problems with its

landing gear just waiting for the plane to come to a complete stop. the airport, of course, was on full alert for the arrival this plane. occasionally when aircraft land without the assistance of landing gear you get sparks in the under carriage of the aircraft, but no signs of that in this particular aircraft landing now safely. now just return to the story we're talking to you about a few moments ago. that's the resignation of the prime minister of georgia irakly garibashvili. we have a russian analyst live now via skype. thank you so much for being with us on the program. many newspapers and wire copies i've been reading say this is a surprise, this resignation. is it a surprise to you? >> i don't think it's very surprising.

there have been rifts emerging between the ruling coalition for some time. and the prime minister has been under pressure both for political reasons and economic reasons. the political reasons i think that the current coalition is really showing the weakness that it had in the first place. this is a coalition put together by a billionaire georgian, who was actually first prime minister, but then decided to relinquish his post. this is the georgian dream, who managed to unseat the outspoken very well-known former georgian president, who is now a wanted man in georgia, and he carried out the revolution. but this current coalition was actually founded on a principle

of being against being against bidzina ivanishvili. we see the resignation there is a sign of real alignment going on, talking to the economic side of things. this is probably much more serious and much more tangible and explains why the prime minister is resigning. the economy is not really doing well. the georgians currency has no exchange valley since 1999, which means high rates of inflation, high rates of employment, and while it was hailing the achievements that the current coalition has

achieved it seems that georgian economy is not doing well, and it has not had a great outlook for the next year. >> thank you for your explanation. thanks so much. >> now, additional arrest warrant has been introduced by russia fo for a man who is said to have ordered the killing of a man in 1998. >> khodorkovsky may be in self-imposed exile but he sell democrat misses an opportunity to criticize president putin. >> no matter what the kremlin propaganda and pr want to show us, putin is no superman, and he'll surely not go down in history as a hero. >> on tuesday russian police raided the offices of a company

founded by khodorkovsky. >> we did understand our risks, and that's why it has not become an unexpected event for us. especially taking into consideration the fact that activists have russians were jailed and searched before. >> on wednesday came the international arrest aren't accusing khodorkovsky of organizing a contract killing in the '90s. >> the evidence of 9 accused khodorkovsky's involvement. the investigation has decided to request his arrest in absentia. as you know the court had granted the possession. >> the most outspoken critic had already spent 10 years in jail convicted of tax evasion and embezzlement charges widely seen as punishment for challenging presidential power. he was pardoned and released

in 2013 and left russia to live in switzerland where he renewed his condemnation of putin and russia. president muten, he said, has driven russia into a position where revolution is inevitable and necessary, and he adds, i'll help bring it about, remarks that incensed the kremlin. core could have did i was charged in absentia. they've gone mad, he says. >> turkey's government said it's too early to say what caused a deadly explosion at istanbul's second largest airport. a female cleaner working on a plane was killed in the blast on a tarmac at the airport. five aircraft were damaged. the transport minister said that weakness in the airport security is out of the question. france's prime minister has outlined proposals to change the constitution in response to last
