used security footage and travel records to pinpoint the suspects these be no official comment from scotland yard so far. and we now bring in. joining us from london so what exactly do we know from the police so far what have they found out. well the police have not said anything official the president station which is a renowned and trusted source of news agency has to have said that they have spoken to somebody close to the investigation and according to that source it's several russian proper traitors have been linked to the case of sergei street and u.s. crew paul so no official confirmation yet but this is a source close to the investigation that's being quoted in british media and based on the information that we have so far do we know what led police to the suspects. well according to that source it was c.c.t.v. footage in the u.k.

not only here in london where. there are security cameras really everywhere and it's this footage of the security cameras then checked with border traffic so people who traveled in and out of the country this is according to the source or lead to the identification of several suspects but we have to take it with a pinch of salt not the government or the police have said anything official. so there's another couple who were recently poison in the nearby town do police believe that there could be a link between these two cases. well that's always been the working assumption of the investigators and the home secretary's job that that was the main line of inquiry and the assumption was that this couple has found left over a syringe maybe or some sort of capsule that they have been in contact with. but

that it was an accident and that it was the original attack on the screen palls that is what the investigators really really want to get to the bottom of and back it have we had any reaction from russia this point. where the russian ambassador here in london has always been really really vocal you have to know that this of course is a very contentious subject and has really soured the relations between russia and the u.k. and here is that he the russian ambassador here in london has said it's being created by a russian news agency that is waiting for something official from scotland yard from the foreign office before he then makes an official statement but we know that russia has always denied any involvement in any of these attacks so this is something that will be the u.k. government and the russian government will have to do with also in the future even if this case is resolved from the point of the british investigators the question is whether the russians will accept this thank you miles joining us from london

thank you. the israeli parliament has passed a highly controversial law that explicitly defines a country as the national homeland of the jewish people there were chaotic scenes in parliament after the bill was approved with arab lawmakers being ejected after protesting the new law makes hebrew the country's only official language downgrading arabic to quote special status israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has called the vote a defining moment in the history of zionism critics say the law is racist and discrimination. so that legislation went through several drafts until it was finally approved but let's have a listen to some of the arguments that have been made for and against it during the process. but the macaca we will keep ensuring civil rights in israel's democracy these rights will not be harmed but the majority also has rights and the majority decides an absolute majority wants to ensure our state's jewish character for

generations to come. the nationality bill is in hate crimes there are potentially discriminating against the arab citizens against a minority with the faces of the kids especially both. jewish settlements and the. arctic is downgrading. the status of that to begin and. for more on this i'm now joined by acura eldar he is an israeli political columnist for oil money dot com news website thank you for joining us so what do you think benjamin netanyahu is trying to achieve with this law. to score points actually it's meant to make sure that the other right wing quality or the extra large right wing party which is led by minister of

education mr bennett will not get the credit for this law this law is actually just declaring that israel is and not as was mentioned before is not a democratic state it isn't turning point in the history of zionism but not because you change is the reality which is i'll give you one speaker since israel was established in forty eight there were dozens of new cities that were iraq but not a single palestinian arab israeli new city so it is just. giving a kind of a legitimacy to. on equal reality that. we know in israel this is has been here for many years now and this since you know

the first one that interview me this is getting attention from all over the world and your question is putting israelis in a position that we have to justify the israeli democracy and to prove that israel is still a democracy let me pick up from where you've left off as you say that all voiced a very strong voice in claiming that democracy is now long gone in israel what's your view on that you know there is an inherent kind of paradox between the jewish character that. israel wants to keep and the democratic fashion of the israeli a stub richmond and the israeli social life. and. this is a very interesting challenge and it's a very delicate. kind of walking on that very thin rope

between the two that look we have for instance the low offering that allows any jew that never visited israel doesn't know anything about his jewish history to become an israeli citizen and vote in the elections while if you are punished union . lived here for many years but you left the country and you've lived in berlin or in the united states in new york you will not be eligible to even get a visa to israel but you know since we want to be boast israelis and jewish there is we need the israeli minority which is the arab minority which is twenty percent of the population will feel comfortable and i want that it's my interest they will feel comfortable here and that they can say i am an israeli and they're israelis

and we both live in democracy and you know i studied arabic and i'm very proud of that but my children and right grandchildren don't know a word in arabic and this is a great pity because you know when you have twenty percent it's not a minority it's a substantial number of israeli citizens that need to feel comfortable that they are told. thank you very much for your input. on that thank you very much. time now for some of the other stories making news around the world the spanish government has dropped its request to have germany extradited catalan independence lead a card is forced on the decision comes after a german court ruled last week he could be sent back only on misuse of public funds charges of not rebellion pushed him off lead abroad to organizing an illegal referendum on catalan independence last year. turkey's state of emergency has come

they emerged to safety the boys showed little signs of their ordeal wearing their football uniforms in a show of health and good spirits but these boys spent more than two weeks trapped underground for the first nine days they had just a flashlight and nothing to wait until rescue divers finally found them. it could have happened in the evening while we were sitting on the rocks we heard some noise of people talking so we told each other to be quiet and listen to the noise we weren't sure if it was for real so we stopped and listened and it turned out to be true i was shocked. it's a miracle i didn't know what to answer it took me some time to answer when he came out of the water he asked me how are you i replied i'm ok. ignoring warning signs about dangerous monsoon floods the team in their coach ventured into

the caves in chiang rai province after football practice for what was expected to be an hour long visit when water levels rose the boys and their coach were trapped . once located an anxious wait followed until the water was low enough and the boys strong enough to come out divers carried out the rescue mission over three days racing against falling oxygen levels and rising floodwaters . although the operation in the end was successful the mission was met with tragedy when a former navy seal died delivering oxygen the team was only told of the risk to his death after they were deemed mentally strong enough to handle the news. the boys have already said they would ordain as buddhists novices to honor the man who died trying to keep them safe. it watching the news still to come the loneliest
