it's clear that we need to do everything for the perpetrators of this crime to be identified and they should be exterminated. the country's security services to act decisively in the wake of a terror. attack killed at least thirty five people and injured almost two hundred investigators believe the attack was most likely a suicide bombing and international terrorists are involved making it more than an internal issue. between moscow and washington. for its ratification.

and the organ trafficking accusations against the highest ranking officials. to be discussed in the council of europe. to debate. the. global news twenty four seven this is our welcome to the program terrorists should be identified and put to justice in case they resist they should be immediately eradicated that's according to russia's president dmitri medvedev who's been meeting with federal security service officials the discussions follow the deadly blast at the country's largest on monday which killed thirty five and left around one hundred eighty injured correspondents. keeping across all the developments for us in various parts of the city hello to you both the there are strong statements

from president medvedev today concerning. what he had to say. the president. of the interior ministry and also the federal security service. happened yesterday and what it means for the security of of russia's transport systems and the pursuit of those responsible he came out with some clear priority of what should be focused on firstly the federal security service his top priority now is to find those responsible to bring them to court and if they're not going to come to court to as he put it eliminate them to find the nests the roots of the people who organize this attack and destroy them something this serious that should be the top priority of the federal security service he also looked at the security about how something like an attack such as what happened on the airport yesterday was able to happen and that concerns the security of the airports he said there were severe security

breaches involved and that those responsible for security at the airport must be held responsible or not includes the management of the airport itself and he's currently waiting for proposals from the interiors to move to a ministry that may involve a possible firing of staff that were involved in monitoring security. national. society and our state in general has once again been brutally challenge but i think this is clear to everybody present a newsroom it is equally clear that we need to do everything for the perpetrators of this crime to be identified and brought to justice and the hideouts of those bandits should be exterminated as usual we should deal. with those who offer resistance they should be killed on the sparse. as the president said dealing with those responsible unceremoniously a very hard line here it was an attack on the states in the view of the russian

state news touch on russia on the russian people on the state itself and so the full force of that state will now be directed against those responsible. thanks but for now i turn over to tell you sara tell me this according to the investigative committee how how could a suspected suicide bomber get into the airport arrive with explosives. where the explosion happened yesterday in the international arrivals. it was actually outside of the control center of the airport at that time which meant that there were absolutely nay checks of course that's why we've been hearing such strong statements from president medvedev and other officials today really expressing disbelief that such a large quantity of explosives but with seemingly say easily taken into the airports in the course of doing the damage that we saw thirty five people have tragically already died over one hundred and eighty people have been injured now we know that many of them are being treated in hospitals around moscow and we can actually hear from one of the doctors has been treating these patients. many

patients have fragmented injuries from the blast and shattered glass we still have a lot of work to do the main procedures were performed overnight and some patients have improved prognosis for those patients we have treated is positive. so we know that the investigative committee at the moment are questioning the post. management we know that they've already seized the documentation over guarding safety regulation to really see what could have been done over the effective measures were not in place today as he demanded security has been stepped up but what people are saying is really now it seems like it's too little too late as you were saying the security measures have been stepped up. where the blast occurred yesterday afternoon also with the remaining other airports. as we do know the deal with the busiest airport in russia last year over twenty two million people pass through it so we know how how today functions are working. is everything on should

all of this point. the date if there is operational in fact we saw yesterday when the attack happened they actually managed to get the flights up for money again very quickly and they the flights that were coming in at the time the attack happened were diverted to other red put say it was quite ineffective handling of the situation at the time today things moving a little slower when you enter the airport because they've got the extra security checks in place now when you enter you have the metal detectors that you have to pick your luggage very but again this is raising very serious questions as to why if they had the capabilities to make these extra checks one as they went in place yesterday when they could have possibly prevented this attack happening and of course that's really where a large part of the focus of this investigation moviegoing is looking into what more can be done and ensuring that really every effective measure is now in place to prevent something like this happening again. the reporter from. tom barton just

appeared out of moscow thank you both. well over one hundred people are now undergoing treatment in hospitals across the capital thirty nine of them are in serious condition and four are in a critical state of france's outside one of those hospitals and has details for us now. one hundred ten people are reported to have been taken into the hospitals at this point thirty nine are seriously injured four of those are critical there are eight internationals injured at the various hospitals reportedly from italy france england serbia and a prime minister putin had met with the ministry of health on this yesterday asking her to please bring. a different moscow hospitals that absorb these one hundred ten injured and inspected facilities make sure that there is more than enough staff . on call at this point to deal with. number of injured deal with

medicine to make sure there's enough blood and in fact these hospitals are calling for blood if it's at all possible to get to these hospitals at this point and donate. the hospital spoke with us earlier today giving us more information on. what they have to say. he was sure. eleven people have been taken. seven of those in a serious condition have undergone surgery one of those patients is an extremely serious condition that we've carried. with the patients today we got the impression they mainly had injuries but then examinations showed that they had fragments they bodies. aside from that the government plans to compensate. family members deceased by one million rubles and you are.

injured between two hundred and four hundred thousand rubles as compensation to help deal with these injuries more information is coming out all the time from these hospitals and of course we'll keep you updated on that. lindsey france reporting that now dennis somewhat london based expert on terrorism and conflict resolution suggests that those responsible for the attack are connected with international terror groups we must keep in mind. the insurgency in the north caucuses. has connections with other terrorist groups in the middle east and in other parts of the world so we are seeing here is another. yet another attack against innocent civilians on the same pattern. happened in new york and london and paris and in other parts of the world. of course the insurgency in the north caucasus has domestic routes and. there are courses for

it that are local in the end this is in my view a part of much wider international. threat. of a bloody scenes of the moscow attack are reminiscent of what can be seen in a computer game it's controversial involves a character who was to kill civilians in an imaginary airport the aftermath of monday's blast has sparked sparked a hot debate methods of a computer game became a shocking reality lauren lyster reports a terrorist attack kills dozens of innocent people in creates chaos at a moscow airport fact. or fiction it's the scenario being played out here in this popular american video game sold worldwide call of duty modern warfare two dubbed no russian in this mission the player goes on

a terrorist regime page hoping to massacre civilians in a fictitious moscow airport it may have seemed too gruesome and tragic to become true were it not for the very real events seen here at the doma judge of o. airport more than thirty people have been killed more than one hundred eighty injured in what investigators believe was a terrorist attack committed by a suicide bomber inside the international arrivals of russia's busiest airport. tars a video game version a lot more people have been involved in this violent video game was released in november of two thousand and nine by the american company activision and in just a few months sales who asked one billion dollars now even for people that didn't download the game just a simple you tube search where you type in no russian can reveal that segment right here this one has eight hundred seventy thousand views now with so many people seemingly downloading playing or watching this game you have to consider whether or

not anybody ever thought that this game could so closely resemble reality indeed it's trouble to look at the game and then the reality of the issue is we need to know if terrorists or extremists are using these videos or these d.v.d.'s with these games to basically applaud the model is a way in which you know entertainment mirrors reality and reality mirrors entertainment and there are people who are influenced by all this even though the manufacturers always deny that it has any influence on anyone. denials aside some say games like this can aid and abet reality. i think though who have been radicalized already that suppose in this case your heart is a car or other kind they look at the gains and see that these games will serve them to train as for the aftermath russian officials say don't get to the airport will

recover quite soon and a range of public figures came out condemning the attack. but so far no one is coming out questioning justification for a virtual version lauren lyster r.t. new york will be bringing you more from moscow's don't know yet of airports throughout the day here on r.t. you can always get all the details about the blast on our website dot com or the latest video eye witness comments as well expert opinion and much more available for you on line twenty four seven at odds he taught com well the class of the moscow airport may also affect the upcoming a world economic forum in the swiss town of davos russia's president dmitri medvedev therefore should do well to open the summit but after the attack he said he would delay his arrival. has more for us in switzerland. he's cancelling it all together so we still are expecting him to come to davos at some stage this week he was supposed to make this very important opening speech but now it looks like he may may not make that speech we don't know

whether he's going to be here on wednesday in time to make it so someone else may have to make it to his place we have heard that he may come on thursday or he may come on wednesday to make that speech and then leave almost immediately afterwards in the aftermath of this tragedy president medvedev received telephone calls and letters and messages of condolence to leaders all around the world and of course he can expect more of the same when he arrives here and if indeed he does come the u.k. prime minister david cameron will be here and of course we now know that two britons were killed in this attack we can expect them to have a conversation about that and it's interesting what's happened as far as attitudes in the world towards terror attacks in russia. in recent years previously it was seen as very much a second attack that happened in russia with part of a distinctly russian problem stemming from unrest in the caucasus areas like dagestan ingushetia but we've seen more and more recently particularly in the

aftermath of the most demetri bombings last year world leaders have come out and recognize that as part of a wider global terror threat and said you know we now know that the people who are attacking ports in metro stations in russia have proven links to al qaida some of them have been funded by them some of them of going to training camps in other countries that's being more and more recognizes this global terror threat and that was a picture my israeli by the chief of nato mr rasmussen who came out and said this is a common fight that we have to face united that was his message to the people of russia expect more messages of condolence condolence and of solidarity from leaders around the world. artie's a lower amount reporting now russia has a lower house of parliament the state duma is considering the ratification of the us to teach of arms reduction treaty in its third and last reading artie's that you go to prison officers following the hearing for us. the meeting started with

a note of sorrow a minute of silence commemorating the victims of monday's attack in moscow as the much of the airport the vote on the new strategic arms reduction treaty between moscow and washington is going to be held at around five pm moscow time it's known that in the same fashion as the u.s. congress the state duma is also making its amendments to the treaty which is expected to reduce the number of nuclear or on each side by around one third which is significant in terms of the global nuclear arms reduction for more on this i'm joined by the head of the state duma can commit you for international affairs and i think essential thank you very much for joining me. first of all can you tell us more about these amendments and why are they being implemented. will the two presidents signed the treaty is the big redeployment trying to synchronize

the rectification procedures. by that i believe they meant the. extra british occasionally saying yes or no to the to the treaty that was the initial idea and unfortunately we could not follow this idea for the simple reason that our american partners in the senate started to interpret the treaty the right even to demand the text of the treaty which would have been absolutely outrageous but they did not amend the treaty itself but they made certain to petition certain. statements which did not leave or say any choice but to follow the same pattern and to introduce our own interpretations in order to balance the interpretations made by by by the senate and this is this is our work which we complete today we have amended

the difficult. not to treat the silver there equivocation was presented to the duma by the president going to be here for first two more statements one of them for. consumption in the united states and the other one is for consumption here within russia one is further explanations of how we interpret this text in the future and the second one is what we think about the need for developing the strategic nuclear potential for usher in terms of governmental programs in terms of decisions by the president of russia. now the council of europe will debate the findings of an explosive report into the alleged trafficking of organs in cause of are the claims were contained in an inquiry by human rights repertoire dick marty is accusing high ranking members of the cause of our liberation army of murdering serbian cause of albanian prisoners and selling their organs almost two thousand

ethnic serbs and albanians remain missing from the cause of our war at the end of the one nine hundred ninety s. as artie's caterina reports for us without a trace that's how the brother disappeared along with thousands of other people. he went to work as usual with his friends to the bullets of it's mine and that was it i never saw him again we went to the police and everyone else we can think of after the war i thought there'd be an exchange of prisoners and hundreds of our binion's were freed the so many serbs are still missing now after twelve years i've lost all the international officials who didn't do anything when they easily could have after the cost of a war over two thousand people went missing and over a decade later are still unaccounted for. but a grim report brought to the council of europe by swiss investigator dick marty has shed some light on the gruesome fate of all those missing according to the report senior officials in the casa liberation army including current prime minister

hesham touchy who are involved in kidnapping serbs and selling their organs on the black market. there was at least one custom built element to the post conflict network of detention facilities which was unique in appearance and purpose it constituted a state of the art reception center for the organized crime of organ trafficking it was styled as a makeshift operating clinic and it was the site at which some of the captives held by the k.l.a. members and affiliates had the good news removed against their will according to our sources the ringleaders of this criminal enterprise then ship the human organs out of albania and sold them to private overseas clinics as part of the international black market of organ trafficking transplantation. finding living victims of these crimes may be near impossible but dick marty's group found the next best thing the money trail and the liberation army have these accounts and

sewers and german banks and they're suspected of using them for the profits from illegal organ trafficking sumption is that some alleged human interior an organization opened these accounts one of them for example the scope. there was just a cover story of course she did the truth. would remain a secret. but it is a secret no more and understandably the swiss government is very concerned as are the swiss bankers this is very important for us regarding also the confidence to repeat to chanel's to financial sense of switzerland and that's why the report of the. government also to look at this is to go to. the swiss banking community is known and favored for its discretion and willingness to disclose its client information to any investigative party however this time around they may not have

a choice but on the plots of the financial at the center of zero most of the country's four hundred seventy financial institutions have offices or headquarters here but that isn't the only thing they have in common fiercely guarding their reputation is what swiss banks are famous for and despite the fact the investigation is still ongoing it is almost certain that within these walls damage control is already being planned out. cash as are r.t.e. switzerland. he is coming to you live from the heart of moscow to some other world headlines our brief for you tensions are rising in lebanon sunni lawmaker has called for a day of rage throughout the country to protest against iranian backed hezbollah the shiite militant group secured the support from the majority in parliament nominate it's kind of not. mccarthy the prime minister has pushed the group in a position to control the country's new government protesters who accuse the islamic movement of staging a coup blocking roads and tires in several challenge answer to. u.s.
