who is on record as saying that he will never allow an international probe that this states a dangerous precedent and you need to remember of course that previous investigations have never had any kind of israel participation previous international investigations and this is because israel believes that primarily the united nations and other international bodies. before actually coming here but what we're hearing now is that the israeli prime minister has tossed his defense minister to tell the american officials wait years at the moment in new york that is not in principle when they agree to handing over papers and putting forward it's augmenting what happened in this gaza flotilla raid it seems that international pressure has played its part the diplomatic fallout was unprecedented you had demonstrations a mosque just throughout the world you had countries calling israeli ambassadors for some kind of explanation as to how they maybe had behaved in this gaza flotilla and here in this well you also had many governments considering in fact some going as far as to do so to actually record their ambassadors from what about the people

in israel what's the feeling among israelis about the incident and of course it's after a fax. most israelis still believe that this was a deliberate provocation they do not believe that the gaza tender was a humanitarian aid they believe that they were a significant number of militants on board especially on board the ship and they do also think that there was an attempt to try and smuggle weapons into gaza having said that though they risk criticism and a lot of debate among the israeli public as to how the navy conducted itself with questions being raised and some of these questions in fact were raised by an internal israeli military probe it questioned and it actually put forward the suggestion that there had not been sufficient intelligence gathering and also that there were question marks over what over the way the army handled itself so these are the questions israelis have as to why the navy in fact had to behave in such a way that it missed nine people dead but they haven't actually criticized the the fact. to whether or not he was legitimate most israelis believing that it was and i

want to go also to add on that point that there is a small voice within israel a voice that does support the international community school for the lifting of the blockade with some israelis holding demonstrations and some israelis saying that in fact this photo wasn't humanitarian effort and it should have to cross through into gaza what about the people of gaza has anything changed and we heard talk from netanyahu and obama while they had their meeting in washington about a month ago has it really eased in the past couple of weeks. financial would say that life has not really changed for the people of gaza what we did see off to this fertility rate and the unprecedented international criticism was easing the blockade what this means though is that most goods are allowed in and here we're talking primarily consumer goods some food items to school books to to to to most items that people need for the daily use but there are still a lot of items that are on the black list and these include of course weapons and

they also include items that are called dual purpose signs that could be used as weapons one of the big question marks is over building materials for the people of gaza in the united nations and other international bodies saying that they need to be desperate development within gaza but these raids maintaining that these these items can be used as weapons the gaza economy is so badly devastated that it needs a lot more than just the easing of the blockade to get itself back on the feet so by and large for most people in gaza life really is much the same now two to three months after this whole sotelo raid all right for now paula slayer live in telling me thanks for that. in just a few minutes for you. although israelis are managed to attract all talk signals which are been previously washed into the sun for after a leak some chemicals may still be only towards russia raising serious environmental concerns in the fore. the online

whistleblower wiki leaks has followed up its publishing of classified afghan war documents with a mysterious encrypted file it's about one hundred times bigger than most of the other recently posted files no one has been able to decipher it so far and with the name of the file being insurance there's speculation that what is that's what exactly providing for the web site and its founder as artie's or emmett explains. we knew very little about this file we do know its size it's one point four gigabytes which is quite a large file and as you say big and the over the documents much bigger than any of the documents the eighty thousand documents that wiki leaks posted last week it's name insurance and i mean it's not known why why they would have called it that but we can speculate some of what could be going on here it's an encrypted file. on the website so obviously we're not meant to be able to and experts all the

experts in the business is saying that is that one file like this when one feels under threat in some way so what they think will happen is that if any harm comes to do their national ourselves or any of his team or possibly even the website itself then the key will be sent out posted on the website and everybody will be able to open it and it will reveal some sort of huge secret now as to why wiki leaks mice have done this he may have made some enemies last week of course he made this posting of eighty thousand documents which revealed secrets about the afghan war that the us authorities in the fighting forces wanted to keep secrets he may feel under threat because of that from them in some way but we should also examine the possibility that this is a publicist. if you just look at the timing it's monday morning here in london and this information has been released this week there was

a lot of news about wishy leaks because of the release of baseballs that is just starting to die down now just as it's dying away he placed a file on his website called insurance and ballots in another news cycle that starts on monday this week also it's got a lot of people talking about it and because the file is encrypted and we can't see what's in it it's got a lot of people talking without him even having to post any kind of new information this last week's leak of the eighty thousand files was one of the biggest sneaks in u.s. military history and that. is. there were thousands of files incident reports things that happened on the grounds that the u.s. military during the normal course of things doesn't want really want people to know but then that they were all of a sudden in the public domain and of course it is shocking to see that information to get a percentage for everybody to see but yes there has been some i'm told that there wasn't really anything new in it we did know that civilians were dying we did know that the villages on the ground were covering up the rate at which civilians were being killed either by just playing down the numbers or by making killing civilians

in. reports. that were really really detailed accounts or to try to over the last six years and that is notable in its. chinese authorities say they've managed to retrieve almost all of the barrels which were sweeping down a flooded river towards russia but the fear is that several drums are thought to have already leaked dangerous chemicals into the water. in the house more from russian far east. although chinese authorities do say that they've managed to extract all seven thousand barrels which have been washed into the water report days ago and they claim to have cleaned up the chemicals which have leaked out of some of them since three thousand barrels contained acids which means be harmful to the environment. are still very concerned about the situation since first of all the. river which you can see behind me over there and that is a major source of fresh water in russia's far east in general and especially in

this city which is located just several dozen kilometers away from the russian chinese border and secondly the locals here on fortune we are not. being as a result of chemical spills in china just last winter the local saw huge oil spill right on the and could only drink water using special filters and the cleanup operation was quite expensive as well now russian authorities say that if some chemicals are still left in the river it should take them around a week to reach the russian chinese border and another week to reach the are already planning to distribute fresh water to the local population in case a contamination does occur and are monitoring the quality of the water in the by taking samples twice a day and the russian emergencies ministry says that they are planning to increase the number of monitoring stations in around a week before none of them have reported any abnormalities in the ecology.

thirty four people are now confirmed to have died in the fierce wildfire sweeping through parts of russia the blazes caused by a record breaking heat wave has left many cities blanketed in smog including the capital well joining me now our correspondent stacey binns who is near one of the worst affected areas in the moscow region and artie's maria who is in central moscow i'd like to first go to the states. where you are managing. to have.

people running from. time. to have a long. summer. and

how. hard. the russian. people are just. lauriston gold fires in the central russia station has just been talking about has been blanketing most going to all the russian central cities and now as i hope you probably can see behind me most is on to rather see smoke vale all smoke its main even worse in the morning when visibility was just three meters now it's changed mostly due to our strong wind blowing from that part of the most a region from the north and west where there are no blazes but anyway we can still

feel that troll smell of burning in the air and still it's very hard to breathe here. x. rays the same god. by the air has been a rather badly polluted with this smoke and they say that our pollution has risen ten times higher than normal safety levels and air people are very worried about the impact it's going to have on their condition on their health at the same time this summer season given no sixty six on us more related dives but health specialists and doctors are saying that concentration all call bone and all other dangerous substances say so hard that britain these here in the russian capital is not going to smoke in two old three packs of cigarettes in just a few hours so. with fire spreading across russia panic is following it and fears are in crazy oh where how phrase we've been able to speak to some people

here on the streets of moscow let's not listen to what they say about that how they are concerned about this situation. just like that it was the last two weeks has been extremely difficult in moscow it's hard people don't feel like working it's hard to breathe when you wake up in the morning i feel some discomfort in my chest the sun makes my head whole so it's impossible to work with dubious initial whatever that i would do it's hard for the border soon it will be like it is in the tropicals bananas would ruin the birch trees instead of potatoes to murder people. and that situation old hopelessness and panic among people the head of russia's also destroyed patron karim has told an old people to pray for rain and this is boys old believers across russia doing that they spare a moment they're praying for rain with special masses conducted in the most of the country's choices and could say trolls and some. very obviously authorities are

doing everything they can to keep these fires contained but what are they doing to help those who have already been so devastated be affected by the fires. well indeed old a situation with a record breaking heat and fire spreading across the across the country has zero to turn to a national catastrophe here in russia with politicians both the highest level being involved in battling this dishonest so precious promise of blood new food and has a way to travel to of the region's most heat by wildfires and has personally spoken to people there those who left. with lost a. their homes and he's not holding imagine submitting ways to get a good rush the majesty's minister internal minister how for minister of finance minister and the governess over the country's most affected regions they've been mostly discussing how to better all good allies so they were all.

firefighters and emergency specialists signed soldiers and volunteers who joined the ranks of the army of firefighters set in days to today should call to organize they swore to do it more if asked if. they also discussing financial aid to those most if factored in the situation of the state has already promised to release five billion rubles which is about one hundred fifty million dollars in governmental aid to all those to the victims all the faas to all those who lost so their. and. this disaster part of this song has already been released and of course very soon every family in fact it during a catastrophe is going to receive a compensation and some grief an ocean not live from the heart of moscow thanks for that update. with the rich and for thailand's of hungry have long made it inevitable source for food production but farmers there say that since joining the

e.u. in two thousand and four they've been losing business parties alexy yourselves been hearing about their plight. this is one of the biggest bird farms in hungary more than ten thousand dogs bring quite a profit for its owner liver goose and duck eggs are in high demand sask his land for this kind of business. in europe in the u.s. when hungry keeper birds. want to climb in the brain. that's why did the world produce. less than a decade ago hundred garrion ducks were sold to everywhere across western europe and the c.i.s. but now the owner of this dock farm other markets including china has been very hard for him to sell it. and he says that ever since his country became a member of the european union he had to reduce his stalk almost two fold. the

russian market i mean buyer in favor of the. return now that you're apart from france wasn't interested in the products of this series we fact that and farm to secure their start of because according to new regulations to cost before the collapse of the socialist regime in ninety ninety hungary was one of europe's breadbaskets its agricultural sector was a strong part of the economy and countries of the post soviet space actually imported him gary in products in two thousand and four the country was accepted into the european union but instead of greener pastures which e.g. membership promised and gary in farming suffered a serious blow. didn't want to. improve to see creation and. to get down. and they have done it they don't need our production they produce. enough. produce. they want

people to buy that production but it is bad for us it's like a situation. brussels have a special program to develop regional agriculture and which promises bigger income for farmers but it has brought little results local producers have been losing more than a third of their revenue every year since two thousand and four compared to the nine hundred ninety s. and now even their own market is practically close to them i mean foreign supermarkets flooded the hungarian market with cheap goods which are being far better promoted than domestic products and according to e.u. regulations we kind of these supermarkets to sell our products the only thing we have managed to do to avoid a complete destruction of the local market is to push through the legislation which obliges these shops to have at least thirty percent of domestic production on their shelves hungary has a moratorium on purchases of farmland by foreigners farmers say this is the only

thing which keeps their agricultural sector from being completely overrun the van expires in april next year and it's unclear whether the euro commission will allow budapest to extend it. lets us see reporting from hungary. well the blue berets of brussels paratroopers are flooding the country streets as they mark the eightieth anniversary of their unit and in the capital about five thousand servicemen are gathering for celebrations and tell you know has more. on this day russia says mountains turn into swimming pools because of the barretts rivers and this is a tradition they have of celebrating their holy day they jump in the fountains of course usually it's frowned upon but this year russian authorities officially allowed them to do so because this all this extraordinary heat going on in russia they're considered to be the most elite sports all for the russian army the remote is no one but os and the two distinctive features over uniforms not the striped
