syrian medics say at least seventy people have been killed by a suspected chemical attack in duma in eastern guta rescue workers posted videos of victims appearing to show symptoms consistent with a gas attack others appear to have white foam around their mouths and nose is similar to chlorine attacks syrian government sources deny being behind the attacks the area is the last rebel stronghold around the capital is undergoing intense bombardment after talks with rebels collapse last week mohamed had to prison advocacy manager of the syrian american medical society joins us on skype from guys in top in turkey near the border with syria very good to have you with us what are you hearing as far as injuries are concerned and what happened. but when evening. in the evening we received from our medical teams and in some other they started receiving patients were the symptoms indicated to uses of chemical weapons mostly
2:03 am
it's not a chlorine we're not sure yet because they're all the thing that we can despite the agents used in this attack is the symptoms that the. medical team is witnessing on the show it's within ten minutes six of the patients are to the hospital died one of them is a woman. we start of this evening news from that is getting that they cannot teach the area because they don't have the protection here and the areas of the bombardment by barrel bombs also the same in any of the same idea which was contaminated by this. now the syrian civil defense firm that they found seventy buddies killed in this attack the number of patients that we received in our hospital exceeded five hundred people and we are still expecting that the number of deaths will exceed the seventy. seventy people killed by
2:04 am
the. and so easily where are these attacks coming from and are they aimed at anyone in particular because you look at the picture we're showing and you see many women and children. you know so it's aerial bombardment on. neighborhoods and the city of the. nation's collapses to the syrian government continued the attack on the city since yesterday. the majority of the facilities were attacked one of the you know the person facilities were attacked one of our facilities even we shared the coordinates. of all the parties including the student government forces but this hospital was a target so there's lots of people are living underground befalls to protect
2:05 am
themselves on the spot bargmann town this attack occurred in a very crowded with really here we have over one hundred thousand people living in very small area after the collapse of the seat of position they. thinking of the area that they control so people are moving to living in the middle of the thing themselves and fighting you think why do you think they use a chemical weapon if that's indeed what it is why would they use that. actually but the. not the first time that chemical. is used in syria in this level we're deported over two hundred chemical attacks and it's the beginning of the guises and it's still ongoing this. seemed no option from the international community of the un security council resolutions on the use of chemical weapons in syria and.
2:06 am
resulted in raising the number of those attacks or stopping the uses of them with bombs so we believe that the perpetrators that interface annie problems and using more and more the chemical weapons in syria i mean obviously this is clearly horrific and you can't believe that somebody could subject many women and children to this kind of onslaught but yet it happens and i see that the hospital toughening up how are the medical facilities able to cope with the having of art that are actually the medical teams can continue doing them in such circumstances you have been under seen since. the continuance at darts either on their families or on themselves and in the facilities preventing them from time could be more big number of medical workers could leave through the past week.
2:07 am
many of them could leave through the evacuation there was this basement to the north of syria very few was though so i actually very hard to come stand up walking and there are very few of us is there a limit to see on the news of chemical weapons and by the way the tarp was but in you know one of those facilities. you have. to thank you very much for talking to us. former brazilian president lula da silva has turned himself into police to begin his twelve year prison sentence for corruption. earlier thousands of his supporters have prevented them from surrendering to thirty's but instead the seventy two year old gave himself up just a day after defying a court order to do so last year lula was found guilty of taking bribes from an
2:08 am
engineering firm in return for helping the business get state contracts here's what told his supporters are you kidding me i'm doing a very conscious very conscious thing i told the comrades that if it depends on my will i would not go but i will go i'm going because they will say tomorrow that is out of the way that lula is no i am not hiding i'm going to go there so they know i'm not afraid so they know i'm not going to run and i'm going to prove my innocence. that joins us now from cody that's where the prison is where i live i will be flown to and i'm just wondering the expectations there when he's going to arrive and why handed himself over. well he will always want to hand himself over but has a reputation as a fighter and i think he was out to prove that he's still a fighter he's seventy two years old but he's not giving up despite this twelve
2:09 am
year and one month prison sentence he said all along he's innocent of the charges and that he will continue to fight them on those days of not exhausted all the possible appeals as you mentioned he defied the arrest warrant didn't turn himself in on friday afternoon carried on negotiating for metalworkers headquarters in sao paolo managed to have lunch with his family on saturday morning also managed to attend a ceremony in commemoration of his wife who died last year carried on doing things very much on his terms he's now in the federal police building in sao paolo having a full medical before being flown by helicopter to. the national airport in sao paolo then take the less than an hour flight down here to. about four hundred twenty or so kilometers southwest of sao paolo there is a special cell being prepared for him on the orders of the judge who issued the
2:10 am
order to restore the sojo model and he will begin the twelve year. sentence here very much in many cases the end of an era thank you for that. really retains the support of many brazilians in an increasingly polarized country in a fairly the silver came to prominence as a trade union leader in the one nine hundred seventy s. when brazil was under military rule and found a member of the workers' party he served two terms as president between two thousand and three and twenty eleven as time in power was marked by increasing growth and greater social equality leading to record popularity he left power with an approval rating of eighty three percent but in twenty seventeen he was convicted of corruption as a result of operation carwash investigation to bribery involving the state oil company petrobras. leader wants to run for president again and october and is ahead in the polls but if his sentence is upheld on appeal it will be barred from
2:11 am
standing so this time next year it could be in the presidential palace or in prison to pale as a latin america this go alison joins us from skype from san francisco california good to see it's going to be pretty hard to reach the presidential palace from behind bars surely yeah it's an uphill battle for lula and the workers party but this is part of an ongoing struggle that they've been since. the ouster of president rousseff this is a continuation of that struggle but it is going to happen now that he's handed him self talk us through the sort of impact it's likely to have in his party well i think that what we're seeing is a he's become a symbol of a rallying cry around which people are rallying and you're getting you know i see that two things one the elections in brazil him being the front runner and all of
2:12 am
a sudden he's not able to participate that really undermines the legitimacy of these elections second of all he has the potential of becoming a nelson mandela like figure around which r.t. and all brazilians can rally around in international forces can rally around and eventually become a symbolic gain a symbolic victory if not outright electoral victory in these elections i mean coming up why do you think the corruption allegations have had such little impact on his supporters that. because it's seen as a as a double standard on one hand and that the he's always maintained that these are false accusations there are also allegations against him and there's a sense that under lula things were actually better things improved for the average ordinary person in brazil and so there's that aspect of it people's lives actually
2:13 am
improved then there is he's always maintained and been seen as someone who is a very has high degree of integrity as a fighter is someone who fights for social justice and at the same time other very you know right wing politicians who are also implicated directly in kinds of scandals in graft and corruption are being treated very differently to what happens next. that's what we'll have to see i mean what i expect to see is a continuation of this kind of. politics by the right where they can't win outright elections right they can't win the presidency if lula is allowed to participate democratically the right doesn't have to ask so they're using these kinds of judicial or institutional mechanisms to procedurally
2:14 am
win or eliminate fear their adversaries and so it's a continuation of the sock politics that have begun to be seen again throughout that in america and brazil foremost good talking to had to pella thank you. two people have died and several others after a man drove a car into a crowd in the german city of man said police say the suspect then killed himself for the moment officials say the incident is not terror related i mean it came in the ports. emergency workers deal with the aftermath of the incident a vehicle driven at speed into a crowded urban area it happened without warning but. there was a loud bang and screaming and then the police arrived and everyone was sent outside but i felt i didn't see much as there were lots of police everywhere a lot of people were running away screaming. the perpetrator took his own life
