second world war seventy years after nazi troops invaded the city your. world news twenty four hours a day this is all t. a ten year old child pulled from the wreckage of a passenger plane that crashed in northwest russia has died in hospital bringing the death toll to forty four life spent two days fighting to save the boy's knife and said his injuries were too serious to reports from the site of the crash. the ten year old boy who was in the hospital here with his affords succumbed to his injuries and he died in the hospital that there were initially three of them who were left at local hospitals because they were too fragile to create the conditions to critical for them to be flown to moscow while the other five had been flown as
4:02 am
for the families of the victims as well as the survivors some of them will be making their way to the site to the hospitals and the morgue today and there's a bit of a delay and it's been it happened on monday it's because a lot of the family members don't actually live in moscow so they've been gathering here today to be flown here it also has to be said that there were actually three ukrainians that were killed that is contrary to your first official announcement of two hours for what's happening at the sites are locals are still coming in bringing a flowers to the side to giving their condolences we've also seen some officials laying candles and flowers on the ground here at the houses surrounding the road here where the plane actually crashed the witnesses still recovering from their own shocking experience they were in fact first on the scene. and we heard a man screaming. around to my house. and
4:03 am
we were talking to some of those witnesses especially where the plane would actually rather be his' house was where the plane had actually allowed it in front of it and for most of the experience was harrowing the memory that they can't forget most is the fact that they were hearing cries for help at the side and so they do believe that there were more people alive actually but then there were further explosions after the initial one and they could only save as many as they could and only eight had survived initially and now seven are still alive in the hospital of course it's still very early into the investigation what's. the statements that have been made are based on the physical evidence as you can see behind me this is actually the forest where the planes come through and hit some of the treetops but they're still working on the site behind me so based on the the statements made see that there was a low visibility there was bad weather and also
4:04 am
a ground control here said that they had asked the pilot to make a second turn so the initial fear we said would come out from this investigation are based on that but the actual blood loss is so big decoded it's a massive you're going to find out more from the front of the patients on. a commercial plane that would have landed on schedule ended up in pieces and inflames this tuple of one three four carrying fifty two people from moscow to northwestern russia crashed on a road around a kilometer from the runway airport officials say the plane hit a high voltage power line that cut off lights on the runway which also knocked out the tiles electricity. at around midnight the lights went off in our house we were going to check the electric transformer and we heard the sound of a huge explosion we arrived at the scene of the accident airplane was seriously damaged we could see its wing justing and. everybody scattered all around the field
4:05 am
there were lots of them i think three people in the wreckage one was either a girl or a woman i could not sell which was larger than a man was hard to see it was dark and there was a man who also was unhappy and was launching me and then carried out two more people from the wreckage in the middle of the road another man reached out his hand towards me but i couldn't make it to him everything started exploding i could not get any closer everything was engulfed by fire so very. initial reports point to human error and bad weather conditions at the time as possible causes of the crash ground staff at the local airport. claimed they had asked the pilot to make a second approach but he said he'd make it the first time however investigators say there are several theories and nothing has been ruled out just yet. we're looking into several versions of what caused the tragedy these include the human factor such as an air of the crew or the ground services severe weather conditions
4:06 am
technical failure and several other potential causes but some would argue that in most plane crashes human error places the biggest part. of which i don't think anything would go wrong with the plane itself in forty years of operation the triple of one three four has proved to be extremely reliable aircraft in previous catastrophes human error was always to blame and the same is true here the pilot should have made a second landing approach this is exactly what happened to the polish presidential airplane while investigators work on the case relatives of the victims and survivors are dealing with their own grief one shared by the people of beth as avoids declaring three days of mourning the loss are still here r t in the russian korea region. the greek government has already run a key vote of confidence in the prime minister to continue his fight cuts parliament has to decide whether to impose austerity measures worth billions of

a strangling their economy the people are being refused very right to judge what policies are going to be implemented. and of course the greek government is an accomplice to this of popular sovereignty i mean we're not we're not anymore in the proper sense a sovereign country when we are your best can dictate policy will be european when we use a b. and the european union and the i.m.f. the so-called troika can come and say listen these are these are the measures you're going to implement you're going to implement them rather like it or not we can say you know we're facing a very peculiar form of dictatorship by the european union the european central bank and the i.m.f. finance chiefs a desperate not to see the first year raising suffering defaults and they're rising concerns about the crisis can trigger throughout. our fingers or transfer of a domino effect. around her before.
4:09 am
this is their problem and this is the reason why are europeans are helping greece but in fact we are hearing pingers because they don't want this domino effect and because they want to take hold very short of greece. sixteen percent of the queen went full sun employees western economic conditions here increased the u.s. saying dream it seems it's a. worst. times were before over. there were uprising or there would be a lot of violence in the streets people said but when that turning out into the streets and then millions and the government continues to push ahead with the prepays measures who then they think have democracy anymore the government is trying to grab the people refuse to be governed in this way every day that disconnect becomes more and more dangerous. above the reef top in athens
4:10 am
really a world away from us being happening on the streets recently the question a lot of people asking is just when will greece reach boiling point lenny when he was on the streets of athens to witness the violence that is already past that point because a lot of people are now asking is really how much further does this guy. was on the streets of athens when protests hit the capital all about. a blog you can find it's on our website. greece is seeking twelve billion euro from the e.u. and the international monetary fund but european parliament member i think one of the things rather than the euro is the only way the nation can survive. the question now is are we throwing good money after bad money you know how many billions can you throw at this you know the tolerance of the people for carts for
4:11 am
extra taxes as we see it in greece there's real trouble there but there's trouble in spain and ireland particularly i think it's in major trouble the euro and as i've been saying for some time i do believe it will collapse either in heart or socially. and probably quite shortly but to be honest i think you leave your is a political prism for for countries such as greece and spain and they need to be liberated from their prison recreate their own currencies devaluation make their exports cheaper make it easier for tourists to visit their countries and they'll get back and on their feet i think they should go back to the drachma i think they need to get out the euro it is a prison for them and to recreate the drachma i know there are no plans at present to do that but of course they can't sort of plan for until you're actually i think that is the salvation for greece and that's the way it really should go but obviously that's a matter for the greek people. so they had this hostage to conflict
