and you've really got a feel for the clean full days remaining t. shirts the eleventh day now hopefully the end possibly now in sight as the ice breaker crosses in. that position not just to recap what's been happening even the policy week we saw these three original ships call in for rescue in december thirtieth that at the beginning of this week another two ships go stuck in the ice we've seen two ice breakers the admiral micros and the gazan working very hard in extremely tough conditions to free up the ships like now managed to get three of them to safety the last of which was the science research vessel that they freed up on friday and since then the other icebreakers been working for the weekend to try and free up the remaining two incredibly tough conditions and they've not been able to do and they're in there now waiting for the icebreaker crossing which is nearing that position we've heard some reports saying that it's probably the earliest i'll

actually get them for. piccies day but they are working evenings extremely tough conditions as ice breakers have really had their work cut out for the we've had go full sweyn such a ninety kilometers an hour the incredibly thick ice and poor visibility no place in the constant of one of the stranded ships that the rescue operation the timing of it coming to an end it's really very dependent on whether these conditions eased up or indeed was. everything depends on the weather when the wind comes down the rescue operation would come quicker right now the cross an ice breaker is on it's really you have enough water and food supply really last two to four months so it goes across to me and the combined that that will be able to break up the ice as he said the crew on board the ships have been in contact they've got plenty of food and water supplies on board so they've not been in any particular danger but it's certainly been a long road rescue operation and it's the end now is inside arteries. first reported for us there

a series of mass animal deaths across the globe has scientists and conspiracy theorists buzzing over possible explanations dubbed the a flock of lips it started in the us on new year's eve when black birds started falling from the sky more bird a tragedy followed in sweden and then again and hilly and finally millions of dead fish from brazil to new zealand have triggered some fevered online speculation changing climate parasites and poisoning are the main theories scientists are working with but conspiracy theorists point to secret government experiments by a new base vet pedro luis reyes told our team that a thorough investigation is needed. it's impossible to see for sure what's happened to the birds and the fish until proper investigation is or herald in fact i do believe that these events are interlingua nothing medically followed one after another and that's attracted universally attention it's not the first time that the world is observing such phenomena it's happens in other

countries too of the moment the investigation or consort claims an autopsy has revealed the bird suffered from internal bleeding but the research is yet to confirm that. we could also be dealing with some new virus so usually it is another possible explanation but i repeat it's full investigation is needed to establish the cause of what's happening and find a scientific explanation for it and still to come in the program the misplaced hope of immigrants in the us. they really have that american dream of coming to the us they know that they've invested in education and they think that the united states is the place to put that degree and that envision to work with the greatest possible were tearing but in reality getting a green card is only the start of an adventure which ends up making many people long for the life they left back home plus. people do not live here

anymore but same. about flora and fauna. cranes and controversial plans to turn the disaster zone into. liberal immigration policies in some e.u. countries have come under fire for letting potential terrorists walk straight through europe's front door this comes after authorities for oil plots on some european capitals are. reports from austria. like many other small you would be and downs in southern austria seems quiet and peaceful while never judge a book by its cover one of its residents is now under arrest suspected of being the brains behind. extremists in planning attacks in the heart of the european union an ethnic chechen was detained at the airport in vienna as he returned from a pilgrimage to mecca news about the incident went around the world streams really

none of the locals seem to know much about it. we didn't hear anything about him. i'm afraid i wasn't. i know nothing about it and i don't care if some didn't want to be filmed at all but was it really because of a lack of information. and the deputy chief of one of the biggest newspapers christopher has been personally following this case armed with only a voice recorder and no t.v. he was more successful in getting the locals to share. his with a really big population become unity with. so that people are sinking what what what comes next i mean this is just my neighbor he was here with me and i'm now has his arrested because of suspect. terror plot with his wife and children we appear to be leading an ordinary life one of the most striking

facts about this latest case is that the suspect. he claims he lost the after being caught up in while. investigators are looking into or no other version whether his hands off while handling explosives this is raising questions austrians over hell well asylum seekers are checked before getting the green light has one of the most liberal policies in the european union and last year alone the country received. fifteen thousand refugees from across the world with such an inflow of newcomers is becoming increasingly cord to find out who is who we want to know from the government in the how many cases actually did this background checks to make sure that this people are not criminal or dangerous second in how many cases austria has received. information from the countries of origin.

and search in how many cases asylum seekers actually have been refused latest arrest is part of a massive police operation targeting an alleged extremist network in late november twenty six people were detained in germany and the netherlands all suspected of recruiting so-called jihad just candidates and financing terrorist organizations it can be here in. and it can be in any other town in europe in an effort to get more information of asylum seekers the e.u. is now making deals with countries of origin including russia but many experts warn that hundreds of thousands of refugees already living in the union become sequencers of illegal so close he spoke some of its member states still lie ahead to go to school or vienna austria thousands of immigrants head to the u.s. every year in search of a better way of life the u.s.

government attracts newcomers through official visa lotteries granting them green cards but as lauren lisa reports for many people the quest for the american dream can turn out to be a grim reality. in the united states and here in new york every year countless people play the lottery. and train for a chance to win. or even a mega million dollar fantasy believing a few dollars and a dream could buy them so for the life a ticket that could change their lives every year more than ten million people also play a different kind of lottery and fifty thousand when meet one of them. and her husband teenage son and seven year old daughter you see here. are immigrants from nepal they entered and won the united states diversity visa lottery this lottery is a congressional mandate it's supposed to be an opportunity for people to come to

america from countries with historically low rates of immigration the jackpot with permanent residency the prizes not cash but green cards and this startling experience was do we have to start from scratch from zero once we got here two years of struggling with joblessness after finding their education in nepal doesn't count in the u.s. setbacks they never expected. we didn't know people used to say you're educated it will be easy america's a big country with a lot of facilities life will be better but in reality it was getting the food and . yes to. experts who work on immigration issues a lottery winners really are given no resources from the government that invited them here and the struggles of jimena and her family are not unique for most people we have and counted it's been very difficult they reflect a group of immigrants who come to the u.s.

not because of a job lined up or a family sponsoring them but for many because of the vision of what they can achieve they really have that american dream of coming to the u.s. they know that they've invested in their education and they. i think that the united states is the place to put that skills those degrees and that ambition to work with the greatest possible return. when many find is maybe something milieu of an ethnic neighborhood like this one that has southeast asian music restaurants and fashion that many struggle with is finding economic opportunities that are any better than what they had in their home country or even finding jobs that allow them to survive here we're seeing a lot of downward mobility of immigrants and often very highly qualified and. finding foreign degrees an experience don't count for many u.s. employers these immigrants end up taking anything it means engineers and business

managers and up his cab drivers and cashiers according to a study two out of five foreign educated immigrants are either in this situation or unemployed altogether if the american dream they want to wake up from if you got if we had known this we wouldn't have come life was much easier in my country people who see their plight firsthand argue the government should help more i do think it's the state department's responsibility and i think that the united states is going to lose out relative to other countries taking that step possibly losing out to countries such as canada and germany unless they make sure of winning the lottery actually pays off lauren lyster our new york from the image of the american dream at risk to a dream community in denmark facing the threat of the war. we reveal how the free thinking state of christianity is coming under pressure from the big government that's coming up in just a few minutes right here. when defending its record in the iraq war the u.s. is quick to point out to the tens of billions of dollars it's spending on reconstruction

but between rampant corruption and gross inefficiency poverty stricken iraqis say they see little sign of improvement to their daily lives it means many are forced to do whatever they can to scrape by sebastian meyer reports. at seven am every morning fatima crouch is outside her house and along with her sister and cousins begins to sort through garbage displaced from southern iraq that most families too poor to send her to school and so she works eight hours a day sorting through baghdad's landfill collecting plastic and metal that will be shipped abroad for recycling a reward for carting forty pounds of trash around two dollars and fifty cents behind me six acres of back that's trash to many this is just waste but for the families here this is not only their livelihood but also their home over two thousand people live on baghdad's landfill. making their homes out of the garbage

that the rest of the city throws away there's no running water or electricity and certainly no access to medical treatment if someone gets sick they have to be taken to hospital the same way they get drinking water by donkey cart can you believe in iraq he would live in a shack commute from garbage people who threw the chain so we could see if it's iraq is still a wonderful place placed by god the old regime is gone and we have a new government but look at her situation much reliving in shocks america spending fifty three billion dollars on the reconstruction effort in iraq but the residents of our jet haven't seen a dime of it what they have seen though is the sectarian violence the drove them from their home five years ago. we used to live in abu ghraib you know then america came the war increased in iraq people started killing each other and so we fled because we were freed in two thousand and five names family moved to the landfill and has been living there ever since too afraid and too poor to return home and not

only the american occupation turned iraq into a battlefield as well as showing the seeds of political corruption how can americans stand back and watch without intervening in this situation everybody knows about the failure of the iraq economy this is having a terrible impact on the ground zero. socially and economically. experts worry about the children who grow up too poor to go to school without an education and they're easily preyed on by criminal gangs and terrorist organizations who lure them with money and promises of a brighter future. how can i fulfill a dream when i leave in fear i can't accomplish anything nothing good security for everyone to go back home there's no work only need security that's it iraq remains a very dangerous place where kidnappings and murders are part of daily life for these families living on a trash still better than living with sunni neighbors back home but until that is

possible until american reconstruction dollars reach the quarter of a rexx population that lives in poverty children like fatima will continue to collect trash in order to survive sebastian meyer r.t. in baghdad the site of the world's biggest civilian nuclear disaster noble has largely been a no go zone for almost twenty five years but now ukraine is planning to make use of the land there which it still says is fertile despite years of radiation are using it for agriculture the shock proposals have led to a clash between experts over the safety implications as. reports these berries may look ripe and delicious but they're definitely not part of a healthy diet the bush is inside a thirty kilometer chernobyl exclusion zone in ukraine and radiation levels are off the scale people do not live here anymore but same cannot be said about

flora and fauna some say it is the absence of anthropogenic harm in the church nor will exclusion zone which made nature develop here rapidly. after the nine hundred eighty six fallout in chernobyl the environment suffered badly one strip of forest was burned by radiation and turned red people left the area but mother nature stepped in. home to many species of wild animals and rare plants scientists from slovakia studying most in the area made an incredible discovery a lot of the life is immune to radiation. we still don't understand how it's possible plans are able to grow. at the very beginning of the earth when life started. on the surface. somehow stay inside the plant

how much problem and the millions of hectares of land were left contaminated a quarter of a century on kiev has decided that this soil no longer poses any threat to humans in march twentieth. will launch a plan to get things growing again. we will establish what parts of the contaminated areas could be used for agricultural needs there is a possibility that cultural products will be. when we have so much unoccupied land why not use it for. those well familiar with chernobyl like the idea. after million people work to clean this land of radioactivity now we're being told this is dead land this is not true just look at nature's riches exclusions if you were however there are those who are worried about what could end up on the dinner table critics fear ukrainian and russian markets could be flooded with radioactive

agricultural products and there are legal hurdles. ukraine has a law regulating any activities in the exclusion zone it says no agricultural product can be drawn on this land and for now experts you know possibility of this law to be changed. the dominant view remains that the nearest save zones from the blonde are still hundreds of kilometers away in northern ukraine and some parts of . the dead zone and is still deemed too dangerous despite some optimists but the fact is radiation can stick around for anything up to twenty four thousand years. r.t. reporting from chernobyl ukraine. want to let us know what you think about that story it's just a few clicks away we've also got. to know from a hollywood blockbuster. special forces.

police are trying to stop being filmed. after a number of. details are. now let's take a brief look at some other major headlines from around the world. at least seventy people are reported dead in a plane crash in northwest iran some thirty survivors have been taken to a hospital the boeing seven twenty seven domestic flight from tehran it failed to land near its destination in the city of yea and broke into pieces and it follows a number of deadly crashes in iraq in recent years with almost two hundred killed

in two incidents separate last july you know. a u.s. congresswoman is in critical condition after being shot in the head to another bloody rampage outside a supermarket in the state of arizona area a gunman opened fire on a public meeting held by a democrat gabrielle giffords and killing six and injuring twelve others one of her aides was among the dead as well as and nine year old girl and it was. twenty two year old suspect is now in custody while authorities are looking for a possible accomplice. of the polls have closed in sudan after the first day of a week long referendum that could see one of africa's poorest and most troubled nations split into two the christian dominated south is expected to vote for independence from the mainland muslim north deadly clashes have marred by the run up to a ballot vote is part of a two thousand and five peace deal which ended decades of sun war that claimed the two million lives and displaced nearly twice as many others. rising temperatures

have triggered flooding throughout germany as thawing snow and ice overwhelm river banks emergency services are working to build the flood walls and divert water from affected areas to parks and unpopulated lowlands authorities anticipate more flooding as the warm spell continues while heavy rainfall is also forgotten. for centuries people have dreamed about a life are governed not by money and power but by ideas of peace and freedom well one neighborhood in copenhagen sees residents living according to those ideals but now that utopian community faces being raised to the ground if locals don't compromise on their principles. it's. i am tired of pushing papers around ninety five are you sick of posting to the government telling you what to do well then welcome to. a country where things get done by the people for the people it

began in one thousand nine hundred one when he's in freethinkers squat in forming military barracks their aim was to do the society from scratch where the only government would be the residents themselves no home ownership no violence it's a co-op community forged by the fifteen hundred strong locals perfect for people like a filmmaker no specific or has that been christian yet says it was founded if you have this ability to administer yourself then you also much bigger responsibility for your surroundings and that is something which is lost in the cities today for news this is the most peaceful and welcoming place you could find in denmark possibly in all of europe you want to keep up some of the virtues of the village where people know each other and also dependents and feel a responsibility for each other so what's their secret to peaceful coexistence people actually take responsibility for the area themselves they don't expect. an

authority or some sort of guy from the from the city to come and take care of things we would do it ourselves in fact christine he seems to be extremely attractive to most danes a recent newspaper poll found one hundred fifty thousand copenhagen residents would love to up sticks and settle down in this year old utopia that is such a lot of fairy tale atmosphere here and we have also saying you shouldn't know what's around the next corner that should be some kind of surprise unfortunately the biggest surprise right now comes from the city authorities who want to string the acts of her senior and then is owned by the state and the state and the state can't do anything about the land if they want to have more housing than if they want to. to be possible to build something and yeah of course that's the crux of the problem residents pay their taxes to the state and to serious speech. but they do not own the houses they live in you're not allowed to make any money off your

house and here the house is owned by christina and you live there and rented from christina and you can't sell it on because we don't want speculation and interest and money in this place but that's something company you can city council wants to change by forcing residents either to buy out or move out even if we're living in this house which we've used many years to build up i'm ready to give it up if it has to be a rights against the privatization ideas i don't want christie added to privatized for now the courts are deciding and peaceful coexistence and tolerance are two of these communities cornerstones its residents refuse to bow to big brother without a proper fight it even. christine you copenhagen denmark and i'll be back with the headlines in a moment and we'll also be discussing russia's image abroad with a leading french historian that's coming up in just a bit.
