a very warm welcome to you this is artsy life from moscow and i'm showing a highly toxic radioactive material has been detected in groundwater and seawater samples near the fukushima nuclear facility in japan the element known as strong has been found in concentrations two hundred times over the safety limit and is known to cause bone cancer and leukemia meanwhile in japan's health ministry says the number of workers exposed to dangerous levels of radiation has now risen to eight. thomas has been at the fukushima city to measure radiation levels here's what he discovered. here we're eighty kilometers away and the radiation levels in this area in many many places in many instances are much higher

or really close because if you look at a map of where fukushima city is in relation to the actual nuclear facility about the plant number one where a lot of that radiation. relating from look the winds are bringing that radiation in the. city and the rain in the wind is blowing the radiation in this direction so we were at a spot where the radiation levels or one thousand times what is considered to be a safe dosage so. very very dangerous levels and so scientists that we are working with today. different universities are working together on projects to try to figure out ways to use a simple method to actually clean that radiation up and you guys actually i can assure you we. are working to the can contaminate the soil right now. and as you can see the two gentlemen aren't wearing any protective clothing

clothing what the scientists are so one of the concerns is that you can actually have one spot which is only thirty times in the accepted normal levels and then you go to another spot which is just a metre away and it can jump to five hundred to a thousand times depending on where rain water and mud have collected one of the concerns of course is that grass is a good. filter for nuclear ready active material and are drawn to grassy places when they go to those areas they could actually be absorbing more radiation from the grasses well so what's interesting is this area that we're in right now is considered a safe area it is not considered a mandatory evacuation area but authorities are looking into to see whether it should be considered evacuation area or at least hotspots within the city should be evacuated because of these hot spots if you will where the radiation is just off the charts audi's john thomas right well the workers at the fukushima nuclear plant

are running out of the ability to store retroactive water meaning any leak may slow the recovery effort or even undermine it according to james corbett who's the osaka based editor of an independent news website. i mean new leaks of any kind are going to be an incredible burden on the efforts that are already on underway to try to clean up the water or decontaminated because they are now running out of space to actually store the contaminated water in the fukushima in the immediate vicinity of the plant and i believe within two weeks they're actually going to run out of space so they're trying to get a system on line for treating the water but apparently the test for that is going to be pushed back another few days it's already been pushed back from last friday there is no such thing as a safe level of radiation exposure that any level of radiation exposure increases the risk of cancer and however negligible that risk may be with any particular person on any particular date any particular spot when it's averaged out over

a large population like is living in the fukushima region unfortunately means there will be over time an increase in cancer rates there and it's really just a question of how many well the fukushima nuclear crisis is also send shock waves through the japanese motor industry and speculation that contaminated vehicles could be heading out to the world's car market potential buyers and all thinking twice before making their way to japanese caution rooms and actually going to have to get reports. oh has been contemplating a change of heart car for months a fan of japanese vehicles she wanted to upgrade her off roader to when you were model but her car dealing friend said it was not the right time but the us could also yeah i was told privately that all new japanese cars are radioactive because of the fukushima disaster the shipment was supposedly blocked by the authorities at adesa harbor but unofficial dealers bribe them and those cars on to the streets

officials at the board left of our question whether there had been any contaminated cars here after the japanese fallout these off roaders worship in before the fukushima disaster in japan and even they were checked for radiation or claim there's absolutely no chance of contaminated vehicles making their way onto the ukrainian territory is it please guys arrived to us transiting through greek and turkish ports if anything was wrong it would have been spotted there in the first place but it was still double check all vehicles for any biological threat. however ecologists say these checks may not be enough to determine radiation growing is a radioactive particles are very small and can just around the vehicle they can be found in fields just radiators inside small and that's why it's very difficult to detect them with regular geiger counters and the disposal of the customs unit security experts say the sale of contaminated steel is not something new for

ukraine these shorts were filmed inside the chernobyl exclusion zone several years ago scavengers stealing contaminated radiators from the ghost town of one costs around twenty dollars on the black market tens of thousands have been removed from this. contaminated metal can be recycled and used for a new thing from rails to vehicles without losing its radioactivity but usually it's used for making industrial pipes and ukraine. i know it's one of the leaders in production of radioactive particles may be small but are still gravely dangerous a person subjected to them for a lengthy period can experience various lung diseases and even cancer so use the temptation to buy a new japanese car is still hard to resist experts advise turning to professionals to check whether it is safe let's see it was in from i just sat and in ukraine. noble nuclear power plant in ukraine was the scene of the world's worst

ever nuclear accident but many fear that the crisis at fukushima may soon surpass it you can check out the once prosperous soviet city of that it's near the infamous atomic facility to find out how it looks now a days a special report marking the twenty fifth anniversary of the disaster is available twenty four seven at our website dot com just look for it in the documentary section. you with r.t. now europe is seeing a surge in anti israeli sentiment with a growing clamor for governments to stop turning a blind eye to the occupation of palestinian land activists say they want actions not words and are demanding and embargo on exports from illegal settlements but as daniel bushell reports politicians are remaining tight lipped on the issue. against israel thousands call for the boycott of his really good over its continued

expansion of palestinian land a jewish demonstrator says enough is enough. american leaders do nothing the e.u. does nothing the repeated un resolutions have ruled israeli settlements illegal. activists european union to call the main export of the occupied territories and fruit with a full human barricade a use a ploy depose stopping getting through. is a. carmel brand market settlement produce and talk is to profit but occupying forces and moving their citizens are committing war crimes under the geneva convention public pressure is bearing fruit its elites biggest grocer co-ops and food grown in the occupied territories the world's largest security firm g four s. has stopped work with these really check points on the west bank admitting it breached human rights shareholders forced belgium's dexia bank to sell its israel

over a million euro loans to settlements activists next target is the rail links between certain months and jerusalem e.u. transport giant veolia protesters are also seeking to file charges on the international law against israel over its construction of settlements which the authorities are investigating police will pass these complaints on to the courts judges must rule if firms who buy food from occupied palestinian land are complicit in war crimes irish m.e.p. paul murphy will join calls afflicts the biggest yet to raise awareness of the situation knowing activists were killed by israeli commandos when a similar operation was stopped in international waters last year murphy feel things have got so bad he's ready to risk his life hopefully people and kills this time as they were last time by the israeli military forces. that it

brings the world's attention to this issue such moves say experts force politicians and business to act to public opinion change your mind before they were thinking that israel was address by the body today public opinion really capacity to challenge and the international institution the europeans and the un and also to . the last time such a campaign was moved internationally was against the port toyed regime israel may have powerful lawyers but opposition in europe to its policy is grueling to. see brussels. and israel's continued a blockade of gaza or is not only damaging for palestinians but also disastrous for israel itself according to the e.u. high representative for foreign affairs also use exclusive interview with baroness

catherine ashton is coming your way in about twenty minutes time but for now here's a quick preview. we're very consistent in saying what needs to happen is that the israelis need to open the borders with guards or and allow people and goods to move freely now i recognize the importance of the security situation for israel we've always done that but it seems to me a position that's not tenable where you have the inability to get the economy moving and one of the things i've been saying to the israelis for some time is it's in their interest to see economic growth and development goals are lots of small businesses you know that could really do well lots of people who want jobs eighty percent of people in gaza receive today so many young people who don't have a future and part of the answer to that part of making sure that we have security is giving them that future and that means allowing in and out the products the goods were girls that could actually sell and support its own economy.

so you can watch that interview in about fifteen minutes now police in the united states have closed an investigation into the so-called sexting case that's dominated national headlines for over two weeks a married senator tweeted a racy photo of himself triggering a media rush that overshadowed world news including the war in libya and violence in. yeah he's going to count not know where the priorities lie in the american media but he doesn't know if the american media can't get enough of anthony we nursed crotch shot by the marriage u.s. congressman had sent this loot photo to a young woman via twitter and that story made it perfectly sexy dancing with a shameless cover up this is a twitter hopes a prank that was done i'm the victim of this poor girls the victim of a subsequent embarrassing fashion last friday night i tweeted

a photograph of myself that i intended to send as a direct message as part of a joke to a woman in seattle once i realize i posted to twitter i panicked i took it down and said that i had been hacked and of course paula g. i am deeply sorry for the pain this is caused by wife. and our family. it seemed anthony weiner's indiscretion overshadowed all other news in america winners winner and we are the winner is this you that we dated for a few months like almost ten years ago to the growing point even comedians for whom the congressman's crotch shot has become a bottomless source of inspiration point how it's cracked it american news media can be your. and your stories. that have been blocked by this recent scandal on a more serious note many people think the only way to get ratings this is to lead and constantly churn and cover these types of lascivious stories that really don't

have any bearing on people's lives whether or not it's a private issue that has affected nobody but the building of all the media pressure is so high that it has become a trend in america to make deeply personal apologies on camera and everybody who has been hurt. you know that if you do the same goes for celebrities like tiger woods extramarital affairs make headlines for months i am deeply sorry for my irresponsible and selfish behavior i engaged in the apologies seem to fuel the gossip industry even more when politicians stage and i do use this word stage these apology kind of. they are very likely responding to their public relations. advisors their lawyers etc etc i mean in the networks american media companies love it because again it generates

even more scandal american television leaves office and don't take charlie sheen cielo hand with our analyst miles courts and now we're at the least this endless and all these scandals have to do with private matters but they feel they knew the same bar i mean it's such an extent that maybe happens by the same as workplace actual being seen america i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . however some american officials are getting away with misconduct verging on the criminal. the russian city of light of all stock seriously injured a man while allegedly drunk at the wheel ten years on the victim who was left permanently disabled is still waiting for justice a little bit later here on our team. he may be faced by an ongoing rebellion an increasingly destructive nato bombing campaign and a worldwide condemnation but colonel gadhafi has vowed that he will stay in to the
