have hooten it live will be a safe haven they'll be no bitter battle for control of the last rebel held province in syria. hootin an heir to one of agreed to set up a demilitarized zone by mid october they say russian and turkish troops will patrol a buffer strip between syrian government forces and rebels. but. we both agree that implementation of the plan steps will give new amounts into the process of resolving the syrian conflict politically allowing work to intensify on an international solution and it will contribute to peace returning to syrian soil . russia and turkey both have direct strategic interests in syria moscow has strongly backed syria's president bashar assad's regime with troops on the ground but turkey too has intervened in the syrian conflict carving

out a zone of influence near its border in recent days turkey has increased its military presence in the region the risk of a confrontation between russia and a nato member over it live grew as fighting increased. a lower have you. sensed the beginning of the month dozens of people have been killed and wounded in air raids and attacks by the syrian government and the russian air force reports from adlib have been growing increasingly dire. there's always the sound of war planes and there are attacks on many areas and. people can't sleep because of the air raids all day and night that. now two of syria's major players have pledged an end to the killing in it live but they have to in. sure the deal is on. so will it be.

hot between. profits. how are people reacting to the news of this tale. well you have to understand people in the middle of have been bracing for the worst for a massive military assault by the assad government and its russian allies so now that this agreement at least gives them a glimmer of hope because this agreement has delayed such an offensive we are not sure whether it prevented it entirely but it of course by is some time we have been talking to former it liberated and sear on the turkish side of the border so people who escaped it lip earlier some years ago maybe because now the borders all officially closed but people still have relatives inside it live and they talk to

each other and they say this agreement some of them say this agreement is a good move because it will save many many lives but others say they don't really trust it because most of all they don't trust russian president vladimir putin that he will really stick to the agreement so very mixed feelings here on the turkish side of the border when it comes to yesterday's deal. and we're seeing quite short of detail who or what is to be protected by the safe side. well we are getting very conflicting information on what this demilitarized or deescalation zone the safe zone will look like some turkish media channels have been reporting that it's kind of a circle around city that will be monitored by and patrolled by turkish and russian soldiers alike fifteen to twenty kilometers wide other sources say it will be an

area that starts here right behind me at the turkish border and then extends into the province but we are getting a very different information here i think so far it's not entirely clear how this demilitarized zone will look like but the plan is to withdraw every heavy military equipment and to make radical militants that what that's what president putin said leave the area but there are many open questions like will these militants relief there are thousands of armed fighters in the will they comply will they leave. briefly what does that. get out of this agreement. well to add on seeks to that's what many analysts say as a longer term presence inside syria he wanted such a buffer zone three or four. since quite a while now he got something like this he wants to be definitely sitting at the

negotiating table when serious political future will be decided and when it comes to president putin i think he understood that it's better to have such a compromise a demilitarized zone than an all out military offensive against turkey's will and he got turkey's promise that turkey will act more decisively against the militants islam is militants inside it live and if turkey gets keeps this promise this is something mr putin gets out of this deal and russia still the main backer of the syrian government in this war. on the border between turkey and the province thank you meanwhile a russian military jet has been brought down by syrian i'm t. aircraft fire russia says all fifteen people on board were killed and blames israel for the deaths of moscow israeli pilots attacking targets in northwestern syria used the jets as a shield so that syrian forces that only shot down the russian planes near the

syrian coastline russian defense ministry says maneuvers by the israeli aircraft amount to hostile provocation and says it has the right to retaliate israel has so far made no comment. straight to moscow that when we join our correspondent and we show welcome emily is russia really likely to retaliate against israel. unclear whether they actually will retaliate but those statements that we heard the fact that they reserve the right to retaliate really shows the level of anger i think in the defense ministry we saw that as well and other statements made today at a briefing today a representative from the defense ministry called the israeli actions hostile and in a telephone call the defense minister sergei showing who told his counterpart that israel is fully to blame for the death of these fifteen people on board the plane and understandably perhaps this is also caused

a huge stir in the russian media and in russia itself you have to understand that up until now under one hundred people were killed in the three years that russia has been involved in this conflict so this really is a huge amount of people that were killed in one go as it were and understandably perhaps the level of anger is high here in russia so this seems to be the most serious incident between israel to russia over syria where do the two motions stand in this conflict. well it is really a very very serious incident and the israeli ambassador has now been summoned as well to the foreign ministry here in moscow but the political reaction has been a little bit. slower a little bit more careful today the kremlin spokesman stopped short of actually blaming israel and that is because. israel is an important political ally for for russia putin not on yahoo have met several times this year on yahoo was one of the

few leaders to attend russia's victory day parade which is a very important event here in russia as well and russia has been kind of in this conflict walking a fine line between keeping israel on side and keeping iran on side a very important ally as well and another backer of the assad regime just like russia and israel really wants to keep russia onside because they hope that russia can kind of negotiate with iran on the other hand to prevent a permanent presence of the of the rainy and forces in syria something that israel is very much worried about very much concerned about so both sides will be hoping to kind of keep keep this diplomatic crisis on the backburner to somehow resolve it . in your i mean it's like you're only sure when. we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world south korea's

a protest on the page during a world cup football match doctors say he's still in intensive care but they're confident you'll recover. more from v.w. chief political ad is a machine that could be a welcome mckayla one needs doctors to believe vessel off was poisoned. well what he suffers from all the symptoms he's showing pointing towards what's called an anti called an urgent shock now let's get this out of the way first i had never heard this before either what it basically means that it's a symptom of poisoning that there's an interruption of his nervous system and that leads to his being dated and many organs over functioning and this was potentially absolutely life threatening they say he received very vital treatment in moscow where he was in a clinic but then his family of course decided they wanted him transferred to berlin and here he is now still being treated intensively but he could talk

although he doesn't seem to be making that terribly much sense the doctors can't really ask him specifics about that particular day on tuesday yet and he seems to be on the road towards recovery and doctors say that they do eventually expect him to recover fully but that depends on how his body is dealing with what is in that. was poisoned does this mean there will not be a criminal investigation. while this is to be expected he also is a canadian citizen so there seems to be this is pointing towards really the responsibility of canada to push for that in moscow but that's what should follow for now doctors here are saying that they don't expect that they can conclusively say what exactly that poison was there were allegations from moscow that he might have abused drugs doctors here say that that is very unlikely that would point towards suicidal tendency to this doesn't seem to be anything like a drug overdose which happened in adverse an early and the big question now is

whether this will become a diplomatic issue in the end i was to be my my next question want to what political reaction. in russia or indeed in canada well certainly here in berlin seems to be no appetite to make any kind of particular statements here the foreign ministry and the chance they will both informed of him being transferred to berlin but they won't directly involved in this case of a killer getting the signs that they want to keep it that way. thank you and finally los angeles is hosting a seventy of them is awards and alongside the actors making the most of their moments on the red carpet some of the biggest stars of the show with a company shaking up the t.v. business netflix the streaming service on the premium t.v. channel h.b.o. they battle it out for the highest number of gongs h.b.o.'s game of thrones won best drama for a time it was also the most awarded show good night for british acting talents as
