here with tear gas mask everything and for a few hours it was quiet but very tense as the opposition weighed in as good a leader to part in some negotiations with the chief although the bishkek police those negotiations wore on the issue that the opposition wanted to prevent their complaints have a discussion with the country's temporary president goes up and by a lot those negotiations did not go well apparently very few were not in their view and whatnot they were refused immediately after the crowd on the out about that they started moving towards the line police they came out very close and tried to break through which is when we started shooting tear gas at them started throwing stones started firing warning shots into the air and basically started pushing in the crowd as far away from the checkpoint just outside the city of contests where we were they pushed them back for about two kilometers learning shall change firing

tear gas all the way throwing stones at the protesters some of them hid in the fatah trying to break through and break the doors down to get into the bus and detain all of those people. it was actually quite frightening because they were cheering each other on their live fully with throwing chairs calling the sickly just screaming and yelling for single for say it was very hard to stand there what it was like i want to journalists they did all they all equipped to stay out of the way scared of the conflict but everybody got a good dose of tear gas improving their want to make themselves because despite the fact or fire hand they didn't seem to be mostly didn't seem to come prepared for. actually their members of the press for shoes or anything like that you might try because they were also affected by the tear gas and then people tried to break through from the other side and that you point they were altar boys track same unit that was. blank shot here got. me all of the line we pulled back when we

have hearing more people from dish than from the capitol are heading out to wards again checkpoints trying to break through again and why they're holding it down and there are there's a russian military base just outside the city of tonsil their helicopters circling all around it all and all of a very tense situation. well today's on rest is the latest in a series of violent incidents that have unsettled the country since an uprising toppled president by kiev earlier this year he was forced to flee in april when protests in the north of the country soon spread to the capital and turned bloody shortly after an interim government was ushered into power to restore order however the relative calm was soon broken when in june interethnic violence erupted in the south of the country even hundreds dead and injured the volatile situation in the country's watch closely from abroad as character sounds home to foreign military

bases the u.s. transit center in manassas which helps operations in afghanistan and a russian air base in compton where this violence has flared up and to talk more about the renewed violence i'm now joined by evolve from chuka political analyst from the moscow state university of international relations thanks for being with us this hour we're seeing of course these clashes again does this mean the new government doesn't have things under control and what do you think could be behind these. the forces behind this the acting president throws out the bible he's not in full control of the country even with the interim government there i disagreements and. if there are no mechanisms to resolve those disagreements through a bit through bureaucratic procedures then they go into a story it was for then we should understand that these are not just people in the industry these people are reflecting. the. decision makers in high

places to go and voice behind i think that's the kind of base closures are those not taken by the. confusional to fall into very controversial and which may be a real disaster focused on the future of the country needs a strong authority a strong president rather than we. have a problem and crisis and this year we saw a lot of interest. ethnic violence there's been fears of a civil war breaking out there for some time now do you think that we could actually see that happen at some point elements of civil war are going on they cannot be only ethnic call they can be ideological political and so on so we have. what a civil war this is a political battle will go into streets who have elements of that being and could withstand but i do not think that right now all these is necessarily. have to apply to places more likely to be political and both the u.s.

and russia has military bases in the contrail both they've been trying to stay out of the conflicts so far do you think a vent some carrots down can and will have a broader a fact on international level it may have but not necessarily or through their . story of these bases that the mandate is there to actually there is growing instability in the north of afghanistan and this is just a few hundred kilometers away from the stall folderol going to stop so it's going to just becomes a non-controlled territory where there is no real authority and where there is the rule of force sounds like. an calamity this then of those who are under pressure has not been yes don they think well we have another place to go and they can go there but all of their territorial food request on also not

the troll the territory and this is just go through the four hundred kilometers the distance through the deepest don between the self and the north going to stop so instability in the caribbean. authorities they've gone through and particularly in the south of kyrgyzstan may attract those who are on the pressure enough goodness down and then it will have. if you say why the international consequences and developments very unpleasant with all of this talk a little bit about kurmanbek bakiyev of course the ousted president he's currently in bella ruse wanted in bishkek how much just support do you think he still hasn't characterised and could this violence today have somewhat something to do with that support he does not have wide support them on him on people if he stands for elections i don't think he has any good chances however he does have some

support and more. bureaucratically believed in particularly in the solved so. some criminal leaders he does have support them. so you cannot say that he's just been a keno he has some but not necessarily more ordinary people so he can be it through these instruments to play out but i think that now with the current clash those less connected to here than it was the. goal when there was ethnic conflict in the south of so now all he can know is he cannot be a scapegoat play everything and go in or on no we have already. the internal disagreements in kyrgyzstan not directly connected to the former president but keep well it seems like you think this is a whole new level of problems iran suffering through political analyst from moscow state university of international relations thank you very much for your analysis.

and we'll be monitoring and develop the developing situation in target stan throughout the day here in our team bringing you the very latest as get. now the number of wildfires raging in russia continues to rise with hundreds of thousands of firefighters firefighters tearing the flames across the country the death toll has now risen to sixty the situations likely to remain tense for several days before the scorching temperatures are forecast to cool and jacob greaves now reports. moscow region a village of moscow region and i'm actually standing by an example yes another example of just the devastation and destruction that's been brought upon local communities here we have what if you can recognize it was a garridge and inside is a car that's been burnt out now is the farce that residence he didn't have time to move the car out it was just engulfed and it was a similar story there's rubble strewn everywhere and there's also the surrounding

houses were completely burnt down as well as a similar story for the forest surrounding these houses was being left smoldering ground and that's been causing. a lot of problems they've been having to watch that rigorously as long as the heat continues at such high degrees experts are saying it's going to keep on occurring unfortunately there has been an increase in the numbers killed by these wildfires that's going up to fifty people one of who in central russia was found and it's the rubble another who later died in hospital after sustaining substantial injuries in. the region there were worries and alarm bells ring about surrounding a nuclear energy plant there now authorities there have said that energy. material has been removed from that plant so there is no danger of radioactive spill or any explosions taking place. back to.

moscow region there have been thousands of people displaced here and the really has been a lot of course. to see what one village is really be left in the show since these forests. rushes in flames. the hottest summer on record has also become one of the most destructive massive forest fires have already burned about thousands of actors of land killed more than forty in the morning thousand homeless with the wind speed of twenty meters per second it's moving through fourth as you can see behind me it's approaching now leaving behind a trail of devastation. this used to be a small picture is clearly naslund beautiful pine forest some one hundred fifty kilometers south of the russian capital more scope and paradise to the three hundred people that lived there with a kindergarten a church and

a community hall it will never be the same again it to dismiss for a frightening display of mother nature's food force to change it forever twelve perished in the in through some in her refined circumstances panic has been sprayed him on people as fast as the flames have been engulfed in their homes five people an old couple and modern the son and another woman decided to hide in a basement their place of refuge became their tomb temperatures inside became too hot to survive. most people in the village managed to flee elaine it was one of those that escaped a day later she's bag hoping to find south it intact but it's all in vain. sure of lames was riding up high even a mother told howard and the black smoke filled all the space below i felt really

scared when i saw the red and black smoke which you know i've seen houses and vans burning here the entire village burned down completely this was really horrifying yet the dormitory of a local college has become a new home for dozens of homeless its staff in smoking its corridors in rooms but it's the only shelter they have now. we want to say thanks for all this care they feed us here very well they talk to us and we have a caller to leave. but they hope this take here will not be long or this teacher that this is you know already got about seven thousand dollars in compensation each pension isn't jobless a bit more but what we're really especially waiting for that the new home they promised it for every family within the next three months and we're ready to wait. when the house is a rebuilt the victims of this unstoppable and merciless force who try to rebuild their lives and consign these ghosts religion to the past all here would rather

forget. t. . a member of former intelligence and military officials is demanding immediate action from barack obama to prevent a war in the middle east they claim israel is counting on washington to offer unconditional support for an attack on iran as early as this month it comes just days after u.s. top brass refused to rule out a strike on the state the group which includes former cia agent says a war in iran will ignite a conflict which could lead to the annihilation of israel tehran has repeatedly refused diplomatic relations with television as it maintains the jewish state has no right to exist but we can discuss this with more than a researcher from the israeli think tank that begins to dot center for strategic studies our guest also has twenty five years experience of serving in the israeli

military intelligence and now joins us live from tel aviv thank you mr goodbar for being with us this hour first of all do you think an israeli attack on iran is imminent. i highly doubt it first of all i'm not in the decision making circle so i cannot tell you for sure because i'm of there but for my assessment there is a will never attack iran by it said first of all it's very far away from us and we have to live through the plains air above a hostile states like saudi jordan which we don't delicious so it's very very complicated to do it secondly the israeli air force is rather small in comparison to that with iran and the number of targets which we should. deal with in iran but globally is unclear because if we deal with let's say the nuclear facilities only they don't use can be done within

a year old wheels so there's no significance to such an air raid if we take let's say personalities or. symbols again think they can be very easily replaced the fencing which should be done in iran is change but this says you can get the form video from the from the people in the street or by invasion to iran like what happened in iraq and afghanistan these things isn't it cannot do by itself this is why i highly doubt that is it will take any action against iran only bites it maybe if there is something worldwide that the united states make it perfect and others other states also take part maybe isn't and we take part in this as well but is a bite so i think that we never do anything such as taking iran by itself well less than a week ago admiral mike mullen chairman of course of the u.s. joint chiefs of staff said and the u.s. is not ruling out military action against iran you would think that if that

happened israel would stay out of it. i didn't know what the plans are he's talking for a minute for america he doesn't look for is like he's the doing about the gun he wants to see stability and so the obvious he wants to see stability in iraq and afghanistan and iran as you know is undermining the stability in all of these countries so if the united states of america. decides to take actions against iran it's from american reasons not because of is a the reasons is that might be a passage or something he has to make take a small part in this but it's a huge country with like almost eighty million people with very many targets dug into the mountains of iran israel has absolutely no power to deal with this a. regime change in iran is something which has to be done by the international community

we're not talking about resume tant what i'm asking you is whether the united states or israel could attack iran separately they're staunch allies. you cannot compare the power of the united states separately to the israeli. military we have no carriers in the sea. while the americans have many of them in need and we don't have so many as it cools a new size we don't have and look and let me tell you another thing they are very much afraid to leave because of. what a legend is lamely. power there are rumors that is according to the media in the world that israel has something between two hundred three hundred nuclear warheads the iranians believe that this is true if they attack israel they know that it is

the end if this is actually the situation is like and i have no idea whether that's correct or no but. is not a target of the iranians they would be speaking about israel we don't feel i was target of iran maybe if something get clashes in there in the gulf and they. industry in the gulf maybe we. will go in again because they don't like us or the. party but they is led by itself i think is far from being attacked by iran or even be threatened by iran because iran suspects that we can retaliate in a way that iran cannot tolerate more to high it could be our ally for us from tel aviv thank you very much for your input there. well you are just

a reminder of our breaking news this hour violence has been reignited in kyrgyzstan after police used why frowns and tear gas to break up anti-government protest the clashes took place just a few miles from the capital bishkek the demonstrators were heading to join around a thousand already rallying in the city against the government but riot police opened fire after being attacked with stones the interior ministry claims the protesters are plotting to overthrow the government today's unrest is the latest in a series of incidents that have shaken the contrie since and on prising toppled president by kiev earlier this year hundreds were killed and enter ethnic violence in june we will of course bring you up to date with the latest from kyrgyzstan throughout the day. ok we're going to go over to the business that's next with charlotte lomas farley hi there starlet what do you got for us this hour oh well foreign investment is coming to russia fit can fall seclude into the country's federal antitrust service agency estimates investment to be worth

a billion dollars find out more in the program but first this hour russia has imposed a temporary ban on grain exports prime minister putin said juge the prolonged drought measures were needed to protect against domestic shortages and increases in the cost of food there is strictures applying to grains as well as farm. grain peaches says this was necessary to maintain livestock numbers the government also said grain from statement will be distributed to the regions to help alleviate any shortages and those further aid for farmers the government is said it will bide a total of one point two billion dollars roughly a third of that would be direct a subsidized. prices hit a twenty three month high as the market anticipated that russia would indeed impose an export russia's the world's largest export but the severe weather has wiped out more than twenty percent of the harvest. with every hole drawing day that paul says

expectations the harvest have become more gloomy the grain union is now predicting a week of seventy million tonnes or less that compares with nearly one hundred million last year the country's domestic consumption of seventy five million tonnes it's. time now to see how the markets that are forming in the european in the midday trade in festus of weighing up decisions while the european central bank and the bank of england to keep interest rates unchanged thirty. percent off the coast in pretax profits of three point five billion pounds with two thousand and ten forty four percent in the same period last year confesses remained downbeat was the lawyer its only investment ration where progress has slowed continues to cause a shadow over the. fear and rush the markets the rules the trading in the. last six percent the main game is a new coil which is probably one point five percent of the. the construction

of the north stream gas pipeline has reached an important milestone with the second of the pot finally coming ashore and russia the project to provide gas to millions of european homes once completed in two thousand and twelve will be no question of a house the details. where he. banged the baltic sea where the construction of the noise pipeline is taking place and now what you see behind my back to pipelines the first one was pulled out of the water and that russian soil just a week ago on july the twenty eighth and what happened just a couple of hours ago is that the second pipeline reached the russian shore and many here say that this was a milestone for the whole construction of the noice pipeline project now what you see also is that's those pipelines are law in a special strange this train will be back filled up to the initial seabed level when the construction of the pipeline is over but now this train per talks to both

pipelines to from any external impacts including ice waves or currents this vessel is called gusto say now it is situated to around one kilometer away from the shore this vessel has already laid around two hundred kilometers of the pipeline in the waters of finland and sweden and after the war it can on the russian territory over the vessel will go back to finland and resume its work over there the part of dover bay is the starting point of the north steam pipe line through the baltic sea and then the pipeline will be connected to the gas transportation system of russia and i'm sure prime klein and in the meantime the construction of this pipeline is only progressing where the gas will and to blend hania the finish board will reach european customers to the north and coast of germany delivering over fifty five billion cubic meters of gas annually. billion
