to try and put these fires out and bring normality back to people's lives. still he is in the forecast generally yes but there are the threat of new fires persist assign as a created a number in the emergency situation in a number of regions of our country which are hardest hit on the fires the government understands its unconditional responsibility i mean tasks today is to help the victims get to the news as soon as possible nationwide a quarter of a million people are involved in trying to put these fires out and make sure that they don't spread any further now how it is right here it's very oppressive with the smoke very thick smoke everywhere very difficult to breathe and very stinging on the eyes as well the situation the moment doesn't look like the ground all around me still is still smoldering it doesn't look like it's going to be clearing up any time soon that's how well muscovites feeling and all this is the family is back at the begin to approach the capital. breathing in most that has been quite

difficult over the past couple of days it gets slightly better during the day but overnight stay clear of small constant covers most of it is almost impossible to see anything because just are saying that the level of pollution in the city right now is seven times higher higher than it usually is and doctors are adding that breathing in moscow right now for a couple of hours alone can be equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes that is why some people are choosing to wear face masks in order to reduce the amount of this poisoned air that they inhale doctors are recommending those with lung diseases and heart diseases to stay at home and to spend as little time outdoors as possible and a piece of what all of you all for she's doing to help the fire victims that we've seen in villages across the south in the regions in russia. as prime minister vladimir putin has pledged one hundred thousand dollars for each family of lost homes and they are expected to receive the money next week those that are worst

case and in most need of financial help to do that have received an additional payment already this week so if the help is already starting to get them to the financial help what we are also hearing though is that people are taking advantage of the situation in this allegedly some people were starting fires of their own accord in order to try and claim this compensation money we're also hearing of looting going on in villages that have been destroyed by fire where we are right now is a very very strong police presence offices on the underground the streets making sure that nobody is doing anything untoward to quell this tragedy could. tell you any hope that he wave is going to lessen soon is there any relief on the way what's the full cost of course most of all it's are hoping for a heavy rain so all in the city to help its cool it down and clear the air however whether services are not predicting any heavy rain they're only pretty good short term rains maybe during the day and later in the week and they're also predicting

the heat to go up to over forty degrees celsius during the day right now the temperature at night alone reaches over thirty degrees so it does look like must be going to stay one big all been for a while. he's in town in the thick of a reporting from the center of the russian capital for us one piece of all of the with the situation from the wind in moscow. and sticking with that russian news now a plane crash on the cusp. of beriah has claimed at least eleven lives a fog is believed to be the cause of the tragedy which happened as the aircraft was trying to land the area is a governor has declared a day of mourning and promised sixty six thousand dollars in compensation to each of the victims' families or officials that have been sent from moscow to assist local authorities with the investigation. plenty was come this hour on r t

including timely treatment for chechen kids. children are very if they had a kidney problem in the past their child for. the most that's right in their religion spend enough money. well arcee visits a much needed to sell it for treating children with kidney problems in the north. u.s. combat troops are withdrawing from iraq as promised fifty thousand will stay on to help iraqi forces president obama confirmed america will stick to its deadline of the end of this month but that the sacrifice is not yet over or james and then sell our rice for middle east politics and security says the bombers promise is they were shot by fresh violence in iraq they will hand over to a more of a combat support than a combat role in the coming months and mission should technically leave the country

entirely by the end of next year what's interesting i think is that obama has always distance himself from the iraq war joe biden his vice president has been the emissary to iraq in recent months i think he's using this reminder that he's the president to take u.s. troops out of iraq to continue the same amount of support for his war in afghanistan where last month the u.s. experienced the biggest loss of the war so far it's a sort of irony that barack obama decides to make this announcement as iraq last month enjoy its worst month of violence for the past two years over five hundred people killed in shootings and bombings across the country so one thing you have of the rock is. of uncertainty and i feel that both in terms of the government's ability to make policy and its ability to secure its own people both significant be compromised. and there may be a novel struggle coming president obama's way off to iran's leader challenge him to a face to face t.v. debate it follows a statement by a top u.s. but it sure that

a strike against iran could not be ruled out. the details from new york. we should mention that president ahmadinejad has made this offer and presented this offer in the past in the past few years to obama last year and to his predecessor george w. bush it is highly unlikely that the president of the united states would sit down for face to face with the president of iran especially with cameras surrounding them for a televised debate but what is so surprising about it is the fact that it continues to make news all the u.s. mainstream media outlets have given up this story all the very popular blogs on the internet have taken this story it's made headlines and what it really does prove is that the president of iran continues to be something of a mastermind of u.s. media look at the realities that are taking place right now we've seen at the u.n. as you mentioned four rounds of sanctions against iran the most recent ones to take place in the early june after that the united states and the european union passed

unilateral sanctions additional by the actual sanctions and embargo against iran and iran has not changed its course it is continuing to enrich uranium which it says is being done for peaceful purposes when i did sit down with the president of iran he is sure to me that iran will not halt its nuclear program because he says that it's entitle the countries entitle to have a program for peaceful purposes and he said it doesn't matter how many sanctions are passed so we see that there have been international sanctions placed against iran one after another after another and iran has not changed its course. will the phones of the brain in american political action committee says the coming u.s. midterm election is among a number of things cools the american west to get fired up. these comments are really directed to three different audiences one is towards iran obviously and to

try to use the carrot and stick approach and continue to use a carrot and stick approach and emphasize that that stake is real to the extent that the iranians may not be taking it as seriously under the obama administration as under the bush administration the second is to the domestic u.s. audience and in the u.s. there is some concern by many people that this this whole track the whole sanctions track is doomed to fail and so for the administration it's important especially with the elections coming up and so on not to be perceived as being weak on security and to hold this threat out seriously and finally the third target of course is the israelis and the israelis of course are concerned that this this whole new sanctions process is just something that will by the iranians more time and so they they want reassurance from the u.s. . russian m.p.'s. the son of who sits on the international affairs committee

believes that whatever goal the u.s. is pursuing its treading a dangerous path will weigh hill more next hour but here's just some of what he had to say. we've been worried about recent talks on possible attacks on iran or a war with iran this is a serious problem we can't ignore the fact that they're trying to destabilize the situation not only by economic sanctions by ethical means as well iran is a multiethnic seventy million people country the stabilisation attempt is rather dangerous. arabs living in israel say more and more laws are being brought actively discriminate against. human rights campaigners believe the racism extends beyond muslims as are clear reports one recent bill forces perspective citizens to declare loyalty to a jewish and democratic state. they're just back

from touring the states with a protest music found sympathetic ears among jews and arabs they go by the name of damn blood and they're the first arab israeli hip hop group to rap in arabic and english the lyrics are bold and demand better treatment for arab israelis who they say are treated as second class citizens of money saying. he won a victory for the loud and people elected them so it's not the government. the government is the face of the people like what started first started or not but this is the situation and seems like gangsters and civil rights groups agree they say it's official the current is really government is the most racist in israel's history. the laws studied them and side by two hundred ninety six instances of races are there not just against arabs there's also

a significant rise in racism against other ethnic groups russians and eastern jews i believe that israel is a racist country continues its bills disaster for the state of israel already at least twenty one bills that arab citizens insist just combinator against them have been passed the most recent prospective citizens now have to swear allegiance to a jewish and democratic state changing the whole discourse in israel now into one in which the assumption is that palestinians are not loyal they have should have no rights they have to prove their loyalty and so this is very much part of that whole set same kind of move the first victims of this this legislative drive will be the palestinian parliament members who are b. is one of them she's one of fourteen arab parliamentary members out of one hundred twenty she says it's a daily struggle for arabs to be treated equally even the most liberal israeli parties often struggle to support them the first priority is to keep their position

in the coalition government is that this is we have all this week this will against the us this government has no vision just some pieces of the c.e.o.'s. but also has this issue of peace with its own citizens but in its defense the same israeli cabinet approved the largest economic development plan for arabs this industrial park is the brainchild of stephan the vet a jewish israeli millionaire who's joined hands with sharkey khatib the former mayor of the largest arab city in israel nazareth. both along with the arabs are not participating in industry they have stayed in the profession we want to bring arabs into the circle of industry and my vision is that five years from now there will be twenty to twenty five production factories here but that's vision is being tested. because although parliamentarians still need to vote on the proposed amendments to the citizenship law another ball that has already been passed

includes threatening to cut off funding to institutions that support the palestinian version of the nine hundred forty eight or another ball criminalizes denying israel's right to be called a jewish state which is why they'll be no shortage of lyrics anytime soon and the music will repost. on israel. of course is much more from our. home available twenty four seven here's just a taste of what might catch your eye on line at the moment a story about thousands of russian paratroopers bees in the wall celebrating their units eightieth anniversary of moscow's kooky pop. sound the russian biker rally with premier pulling power as prime minister vladimir putin writes it.

now when parents discover that they'll do all in their power to make them well again but in russian regions like the chechen republic getting treatment for a serious condition such as kidney disease meant having to travel to moscow without something that many families just simply can't afford now though new facilities mean that vital medical care is within reach. of a house this story. it's been a year since he adopted a baby girl dog but lady said still morning she's always looking at the pictures of her girl when she was in hospital. has no she was more than a child she was in. school all the time my mom still crying.

by fifteen to twenty percent and it's not only the price level which is growing but also the number of deals signed most of the developers now declare that their time . is about three times higher than it was two thousand in two thousand and nine. so we could say that on the basis that of the growing. demand on the market with the move we could declare and most of the developers could declare that the price a growing up the rice is seen in every single sector from economy parliaments to luxury homes here in this area for the school is where the city's most expensive apartment solar case is the starting price of just one square meter tops thirty thousand dollars but this is not the upper limit the prices are expected to raise even higher over the next year. after the financial crisis fewer companies started to build new apartment buildings and at the same time the demand for flats continue

to grow real estate companies say supply will not keep up with demand and that will push prices even higher. i believe the economic situation has stabilized and it's again become very profitable to invest in real estate i'm sure we'll see further growth in demand as well as in property prices and the other issue is the lack of construction companies active on the global market and they say only an increase in the number of well financed builders committed to producing quality real estate can keep prices stable might in the course not business r.t. . with prices again for a sixth straight day to hit a twenty two month high as drought in top exporter russia fields prices soared by a fifth last week alone but the head of the russian grain union says that's on justified. fundamental factors do not support kind of grain prices last week we reached two hundred forty dollars per tonne but this crisis quite
