structure pounds fukushima nuclear plant locals still living inside the twenty kilometer evacuation zone are being ordered to leave the area is already being compared to the infamous exclusion zone around which was established twenty five years ago but some who should have left but never did. when to find out why. the exclusion zone on the border between russia. and more than a hundred kilometers from chernobyl it received. to follow a troubling nuclear accident. people were advised to leave but not everybody has this used to be a thriving community of more than five thousand people after chernobyl it was deemed unsuitable for living out of the republicans already have in fact if you measure the radiation around here it still several times higher than normal but

just walk down the road and draw still people living all around their area at first glance wish cough looks like an ordinary village and most to live off what they grow and their gardens and the livestock to keep up with the government says that me from the animals for the local feed from contaminated land isn't safe to eat. of course we're scared of the radiation we simply can't afford to go anywhere else . according to the government anyone who's living in the exclusion zone is an equivalent housing outside it but actually getting it is a problem. we'll miller chair of who personally for the fire chernobyl as the mayor of the nearby town of nor was it called could miss the current system isn't working yes. there is a commission of values the housing of those people who want to leave and give the money for it but the money is so small those people wouldn't be able to afford

a house in most places around russia so many people choose to stay here. the cancer rate in the area has gone up by seven times since chernobyl and the fact of the contamination may not have peaked yet. but in some of the. in the first few years after chernobyl at least there were government programs to clean up local food supplies but now they are gradually coming to an end we're being forgotten about. well you know after holding his clinic doctor for no visits his relative at home eighty six year old and his husband died of cancer from handling contaminated materials she says she plans to live out the rest of her life here. i was never given a chance to leave and now i'm too old to go anywhere else but we're maybe too late for anna to move others here because so enjoy life without the shadow of radiation

. either unnerved party and screeching. even though the plants remains and cars are senator experts have told r.t. that to burn has little choice but to clean up and carry on rely heavily on atomic power. it's certainly a very serious accident it's the second most serious after chernobyl in the history of nuclear energy there have been releases of very great some material into the environment and there have been about curation i mean i think we one of the things when the final accident just probably don't we which are and certainly here is that we need to look into these it certainly does seem to be the case but the high level of pressure it was eric and possibly reaction of the world where they vented rather than later than the respect they should have done that buildup of pressure may have affected the seals within the range the vessel which could have given the route radio to material to to come out and i do say having been commentating throughout this that i think the speed of information coming out of japan has not been as high

as one would have hoped to through sure they are getting cooling water into the sensors of the reactor but they haven't got to what's called kolchak where all the halter inside directors are is liquid that means there will be escapes of radioactive material but they weren't able to start looking at a long term solution until they have the centers of those reactors brought under control and they can remove the fuel to the third biggest economy in the world doesn't have an awful lot of choices in japan imports eighty four percent of its energy it's enormously dependent on imports of energy probably the middle east and of course. russia and the former soviet union it's common industries practically predates that so it's pretty much used all of its coal and it doesn't have enormously valuable renewable reserves there. but the two novels twenty fifth anniversary just two days away will bring you plenty of coverage on what happened at the time and the consequences of the disaster and this one thing you'll also be

able to catch an exclusive documentary on the terrifying legacy of the truth not lost right from the heart of the exclusion zone. twenty five years of fallout. from the most devastating nuclear disaster history. culture of the century has mankind at its mistakes. the legacy of. all the party. opposition forces in libya have been preparing a new offensive on colonel gadhafi military in the eastern city of darby and which has been a stalemate for nearly two weeks it comes as the cut off his forces retreat from the port city of misrata where they have faced heavy five from rebels human rights

groups claim misrata is on the verge of a humanitarian crisis after more than a thousand people died in the seven weeks siege by gadhafi troops meanwhile the libyan government says three people have been killed in nature as frightfully conductor's compound in central tripoli secant john dunn who has just returned from a monitoring mission in libya thinks the decision to intervene in the country's sports ground that's. the basis for nine hundred seventy three the u.n. resolution was that the claim was that gadhafi had bombed from that free particular district in tripoli so for june. we visited these places there was no indication whatsoever of any aerial bombardment so they go it just goes to show that if there's a claim this has to be actually corroborated properly and that hasn't been done and what we've what we've had is a situation where nato has gone to war against self sovereign nation on the base off an allegation which in terms of our findings was just baseless the point is

that there has been no international investigative teams to investigate the nato bombings as well. the coalition is spiraling pressure on government forces in libya as the u.s. carries out and its fast predator drone strike asia times correspondent papper escobar told r.t. that metric action in the country is nothing party u.s. led war under nato cover in their minds ok so don't these drones ok and over two thousand and one timeline so they can make them to fry between civilians and friendly this is obviously not true and they're coming back to that soon their accuracy and right we have been told that this is not a u.s. war. started by africa the african command that was its first african war good term our hearts were washed by general carter ham which is the commander of africa going to where switched to nato which is basically

a good banter going to weaponize the army in europe nursing as decided in brussels without an american ok and now that we have been told that the u.s. isn't less thursday is out of strike missions in libya. u.s. creditors on the ground so it's ruined right off another and none start and soon going to have groups on the ground of course. now watching our tease still to come on the program the electra trash cycle. of the output story yesterday it was almost a riot that broke out over the. what do you think of that i think it's ridiculous. america's obsession with the latest gosh it sounds away with time i don't acknowledge you to countries like india r t r six people in new york if they've think twice before ditching their digital garbage. the infamous koran burning pastor has been briefly jailed in the us after a court blocked his plans for an anti islamic protest outside

a mosque the court ruled that the rally which was due to take place in a city described as america's new zealand capital could cause violence archies christians as has been looking at how free speech can threaten public safety. they came to show that the planned protest was not causing a rift in their community even formed a human chain in a show of solidarity christians jews and muslims were not afraid. but we can work together as a team as if it is one family they came to send pastor terry jones a message whatever has him tormented i want to pray and as god to deliver him out of this is to hear me is i am praying for you he needs help more than seven hundred people attended a service on the eve of the protest planned by a man that has held the qur'an on trial and another man who actually set the holy book on fire to fight what some here deemed the greatest offense with peace.

peace. peace. but were some in the city of dearborn are divided are along the lines of two rules of law the constitution and the qur'an and truly with that freedom of speech but i think it should be a little bit more strict was people they get to create problem he has every right to say what he wants to do what he wants this is america this is not the middle east but at least he should not hurt our feelings for some across the country the question is will freedom of speech incite violence. earlier this month in response to pastor terry jones actions more than a dozen people were killed in mazar e sharif in afghanistan here in dearborn it is about public safety pastor jones was refused a permit to protest at the mosque but was told he could protest elsewhere he should not be stopped from expressing his opinion in other venues that he's been offered

including in the city hall under local laws here there are four designated for. the henry ford community center a public library city hall and right here and i think this record but the bigger question for many is should there be designated free speech zones or under the first amendment of the constitution and the entire country designated for speech them and there were in michigan christine freeze out party. a recent census shows into is becoming an increasingly male dominated society the birth of a son considered more financially lucrative baby girls are falling victim to gender selection of options. for was this genocide could have a devastating effect on the country's future. it takes a village to raise a child the saying goes but in the village of cora about three hours from the

indian capital not every child is given a chance here there are twice as many boys as girls and according to the latest indian census numbers the trend of more boys is a national reality and no coincidence in the truly these songs should be refused one son. look after the family business of the family very good looking after the. dr rajiv is a physician at a hospital and her iana in india sex selective abortion and finding out the sex of a baby before birth are illegal but every day good the sees patients who are willing to do just about anything to construct a family with more boys than girls you have people who come to you again. nor. people who have suffered only war abortion and unborn. anything while the villagers in cora can't deny the statistics few will talk about

what is happening to all the baby girls they do however admit that having boys is more attractive to them financially especially when it comes to the indian practice of a bride's family paying a gallery to the groom's family before their wedding is there are they both agree there are a lot of poor people in the villages who are mostly due the reach of their few diary it's like a big obstacle in the. gendercide continues at the rate it's happening now by true . any twenty one india will have twenty percent more men than women and one major concern for people here is who he is young why don't marry when they grow up if nothing changes. this is a worry for everyone even we have two sons the drilling number of goods does worry us whether we will find wives for our sons or not in some places like korea not the gender ratios are so skewed that some villagers are traveling to other states to buy brides for their sons. or poor families are brought in for those they

had the lead of money and there have been several stories of imported brides who end up harassed and ostracized for their cultural differences for years between plants. people and instances of you will group of people of those who get one value for to many it's a rooted mentality that will be difficult to change everybody can sort of as a burden and bridges that have a god who is not born in their family leaving the future for females in the country by unknown preassure either r. t. career or india. as a major downsize to america's last for the losers techno garnets dot com we're reporting on how developing countries are paying the price or her finest to the streets of new york to find out if people care about their cost.

these people right here when they drive because of. some type way so it is ok if we just say we're everyone's doing it and someone jumps off a bridge the ok to do it too. i mean it is what it is we don't seem to care why is that you simply it's invisible it's you know you should be doing is somebody else's problems like a civil war in africa if you can say it's not really happening do you think people do care and just don't do anything about it do you think they really don't care i think it's industry driven i think industry should create an infrastructure for taking about saw because people would react. how would we get them to do that. how would we get in through that tunnel political action interest like yes i may be figure out some way to make it profitable for i'm right so it's about the bottom line honestly i think you just need a loss for the bottom line is that millions of tons of just started. gadgets are polluting your planet every year so please do think about that the next time you
