the splined entire truth wins if you tell me tonight your group the fictional guru guild would international journalists flood to change every green loyalty till intel who. reports from tripoli say rebel forces have seized control of most of the libyan capital of the libyan leaders and security force has reportedly surrendered and confirmation has come into the sun safe has been arrested according to the libyan government one thousand three hundred people have been killed since the nato backed onslaught on tripoli started on sunday. and suggestions of ceasefire egypt has reportedly managed to convince both gaza and israel to lay down arms after days of heavy shelling. and other stories that have shaped the past week the crackdown against english rioters gains momentum with harsh sentences handed to those who played only minor parts in the chaos as human rights groups say judges

and politicians have gone too far. and e.u. leaders promise of a single economic government fails to reassure anxious investors as fresh trouble over greece once again threatens stability. and. it is seven o'clock here in moscow the russian capital it is five o'clock in tripoli where you will find breaking news let's get right to that reports say rebel forces have reached to the center of the capital and are in control of ninety percent of tripoli the head of libyan leader moammar gadhafi is personal security forces reported to have disarmed his unit and surrendered the international criminal court says it can confirm that cut off his son's safe islam has been arrested the rebel council announced it will stop the fight. that's raging around

the capital tripoli if colonel gadhafi leaves the country but in a second audio dress of the colonel urged the nation to fight to the end i witness is our tweeting that an independence flag has been raised on tripoli's central mosque in the rebel stronghold of benghazi victory celebrations are already underway. now we can cross the lives of journalist mahdi nasm royal who's in tripoli's rixos hotel where foreign journalists have been obliged to stay during the conflict now thanks for joining us under what we know is very stressful circumstances chances last time we spoke you you were in a bunker reporting on rebels surrounding the building what's the situation like there where you are right now. well you don't have a copy oh you don't i'm sorry young men have come here downstairs. we air in a tense situation have a chinese border right next to me and so we try to order issue here again. we don't

know what's going to have to do with my team i cannot tell you have is. that entire see the sights not. be true your going to go a few. times we. don't feel as if or if you go all right it's still very tense in your sneakers that's. a good you feel as this point that you are a target for rebels. yes i guess you just can't keep. a . good fit i don't think international are taking a heavy duty too much fuels and threat to anybody if you create a threat in a sense or a notable tells by journalists in the united states and britain a certain journalist your security it's the kind i guess and the fear. if you know

essentially is going through the files that the movies have stored cost. dave take care of charity. so at one point in time there were a minders from the libyan government who were in charge of you in the hotel just out of that that they have left and now that no one is really keeping up on you except for journalists themselves. yes that some of the journalists a want to or. watch a t.v. are here for security figure which are in danger to go to the parameters to contribute offices here. look it's a first it's had they were upset for a body for some reason. but. so you try one suspicion once for. sure you're in the danger. first taking revenge. all right thanks very much

a journalist somewhere in tripoli from the center for research on globalization thank you for joining us now we can go to independent journalist lizzy feelin who says we shouldn't write off and off the forces just yet. say it's all right now because if we see this situation. outside knots yesterday and we've also i've also had that there's been intense nato bombing up the city. so clearly you know there's been a lot of bloodshed some nights the last that the last time the highs which is a few hours of i think that toll for the day was one thousand three hundred so surely has risen above that and nato has or hasn't gotten its hands today so what i can say is i definitely would not underestimate the libyan army raids you have to massacre was the spain we should be very vigilant about but giving anything back

rebels say as we know that they have made and many claims throughout the duration of this crisis which had been prevented baseball's. political scientist dr michael parenti based in berkeley california says protecting civilians was just a pretext for nato to step into libya topple gadhafi and redirect the country's economy. expect the same thing as you saw it happen in yugoslavia and in eastern europe there will be a massive privatization take place in the public economy that we could down the government built over forty years which included public subsidies for housing for education for health care all those things would be privatized the oil the oil fields would be handed whole group to private companies for private profit death squads will come in and clean out. those who might still have

a commitment to a social wage or communal wage and this is what we have to look both through and that was the real intention it was to overthrow the government it wasn't any humanitarian concern it wasn't any concern for democracy or human rights. we can now cross to washington where our team is. standing there by is it now you have some reaction coming out of the white house on the developing situation in tripoli tell us a little bit about that. well shon washington has been a key player in the fight for tripoli that's for sure is part of nato and as we know at this point nato has done the heavy work actually most of the work attacking tripoli and president obama spoke earlier this sunday night saying tripoli is slipping from the grasp of a thai randel so that gadhafi must relinquish power once and for all nato secretary

general has made a statement of similar in fact saying they could offer a regime is crumbling and they now believe have a chance for a new beginning he also said that the transition must come peacefully and of quote well that part has raised a lot of questions because everything that was going on in tripoli has been very far from being peaceful we're talking about extensive bombings by nato throughout the weekend actually throughout six months there while the whole of the international community has so far united saying that could be has no place in levy his future that he has to step down and that was a view shared by all of the u.n. security council members including russia but the means by which nato has been accomplishing the goal of our staying could have seen many violations of the u.n. resolution from six months ago that authorized the military intervention the resolution was designed to protect civilians but many innocent civilians have been killed in nato strikes within those six months and also the funneling with weapons

to lead in gravel so it's been done in clear violation of the u.n. arms embargo that was imposed on leave us the western powers of taking sides in the civil war basically this regarding the whole part of the population in leadership that was against this kind of a military intervention in the first place well in light of all those violations it was very unlikely that the u.n. security council would have adopted yet another resolution or levy a constant temperature and september is when the previous resolution runs out so it was crucial for the rebels and for nato to carry out the. operation before the resolution expires from what we hear on the ground in tripoli the rebels and nato forces have met the deadline so despite all the violations as it happens in history the winner takes it all less for who the winners are although the rebels are far from being a margin is their official leadership and that is the transitional national council is being recognized as a legitimate power by all allies that have been helping the rebels announced

productions that the stumbling point here is that neither the council nor each leader has been chosen by the leading people themselves and many libyans are outraged by the fact that foreign essentially foreign powers have been making those very important choices who are that you know when you look at the footage coming from tripoli it very much reminds of the cheering that we saw in cairo when hosni mubarak was ousted and then the army took over there and the egyptians are still struggling to make their voice heard in a new levy and who are afraid that their voices could be ignored by the international community now. going to japan reporting from washington d.c. thanks for that we'll keep up with you as more information becomes available on this developing story now for some reaction coming from london here is our chief correspondent laura and. but we have heard reaction from downing street quite late

on sunday evening and it wasn't surprising reaction i'll be honest with you they released a statement saying that the end is near and we get happy that he's committed some of poor little crimes against its own people and he must now to avoid suffering for his people that's a cool that they've been repeating ari for a series of months now that that exactly must go and the background of all this is just less than two weeks ago the embassy the libyan embassy in london with in fact having to do that so you have really put into law a representative of the so-called traditional council say the exactly regime people who were there have now gone back to libya and it's been taken over by the transitional council. we see rebel forces approaching affectionately vary from the east from the west of course although it's hard backed by these naysayer and strikes which are being heavily supported by loans and arms by downing street and the results of that is this week hala hearing reports that we don't know you now

where exactly is fox has raised himself because he didn't say fall is around are being captured and the rebels say that they're holding them in a safe place ready to hand them over to the relevant authorities now the view generally on the ground so i have to say that the libyan conflict is rather cool and out at the knees of the last few weeks of things tend to do have a very short news cycle and we have a lot of our own stuff going on here in the u.k. but people are saying now that this might be good and caring but they're not thinking of that they speak and quite yet yes that's analysis coming out and saying that these these final moments since these people like final few streets that the rebels have to take if they are going to gain full shoulder tripoli will not be easy at all we're looking at this rain which officers on changes to the friends as the defense can then take who are residential buildings mosques any kind of high point they will be to. no positive fact that i'm using it to get back to the city

and who respect in terms of nato needs these incredibly numerous and strikes that they've been known to say it's much harder to target strikes when you're in such a built up oh appropriate residential area and of course what is going to be left behind when this keeper fortunately is there you go whoever comes out on top it's expected that it's being targeted placed by the rebels and by makes the rebels late on friday that these forces will be key or oil and transport infrastructure which reports essentially people carrying are no more every day lives. president sarkozy of france as well as the german government are again calling on canal if you just step down in the face of the recent gains by the rebels are he's done you're bushell was in paris with the latest president sarkozy called on gadhafi so you need to give out what power he has left to order his forces to cease fire and to give way to what sort because he called the legitimate

libyan authorities as the outcome of the rebel victory is no longer in dealt with the french leader i didn't fully support the rebels he called this but the source of movement on hating the libyan people who support them reiterating france's backing for the rebel provisional council germany has called on gadhafi to step down quickly a forensics experts here fear for old school no use military force in the capital putting civilian lives at risk and that it will use the international criminal courts employments of gadhafi as a justification. for his dinner was all reporting there will keep you posted as more information comes from this breaking story in libya. across a border violence has erupted in the middle east this week with israel launching airstrikes in gaza hamas responded by launching more than one hundred rockets and mortars into the country the violence erupted after a series of attacks inside the jewish state on thursday that killed eight civilians latest reports however suggest that egypt has managed to broker

a ceasefire between the two sides are changed policy there is following the developments for us from jerusalem. the reports we're receiving indicate that hermetic officials say that cairo has brokered this truce which goes into effect as evening we understand there tel aviv was his attend and about making any kind of agreement with the guards or operatives and the militants they put down the fire first we also understand that it will be the sensibility of her master security close to enforce the cease fire not only that is good news but the reality on the ground is that no one here really believes that if he's fired between the two sides and will already survive the test of time this latest violence started on tuesday in a three pronged six pack there cliff beatty's rabies did that it was founded almost immediately with a strike and those airstrikes have been continuous since tuesday there have been more than a dozen palestinians killed they have been more than eighty grad and some rockets

that have rained down on southern israeli towns killing one israeli and injuring many more so certainly the least since on the ground is there both sides are incredibly angry both sides are incredibly distrustful of the other and one of the sentiments being expressed here in israeli circles today is that israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been preparing for a war with gaza for some time and never really what happened on tuesday was just perfect opportunity to carry out the assault that we've seen here in israeli circles demonstrators david they're not surprised the latest spate of violence many believe that netanyahu was hoping for something like this could happen because he is a crime minister that is very strong armed security issues on issues of what what is called terrorism here in israel rather than on increasing socio economic internal problems so for more than a month now you've had tens of thousands of protesters in all the major cities in israel and they marched again last night and was the for the slogan was

a call for social justice they added a new slogan yesterday saying a course for a cease fire now the protesters that i've been speaking to are adamant that they will. this latest space of violence detract the netanyahu government from increasing if. they planned it by the first weekend in september they'll have a million man march they believe they'll get a million israeli citizens to the streets and that's almost minus six of the population here so these to me is a lot of disgruntled israelis about domestic issues and if anything i want to keep this latest spate of violence that they say has made an even more determined to make should it turn yahoo any government has become since. they are reporting there from jerusalem now to britain where two young men have been handed a tough jail sentences for using facebook to encourage violent riots and jail terms were praised by prime minister david cameron slammed by human rights groups as over the top archies ivory bennett has more on how the policy of zero tolerance has

taken hold in the. four years behind bars for the riot that didn't even happen jordan black sure and perry sutcliffe kenan were banged up for inciting disorder on facebook no one turned up after their invitation to riot which they later said was a drunken joke but now they face sentences even tougher than most looters and i worry is that it is an imbalance a four year sentence for example would normally be given to somebody for a previous quarter the harm for holding someone up with a knife or even for. some form of sexual assault so it seems to me that. there is a danger that the courts are moving into distribution of territory and not actually devalues or more serious crimes that governments encourage cause to dish out harsh sentences by using the public disturbance as an aggravating factor it's meant this man anderson fernandez could even be sent to jail for a thing of just two scoops of ice cream because like this one denying bail to most

offenders and ignoring any claims of previous good character of the one thousand two hundred seventy seven people charged so far two thirds have been remanded in custody that's way up on last year's rate for serious crimes this is just ten percent some offenders even being made homeless is their punishment with local governments taking away their houses but many say it's all simply cause more harm than good i think this is very unwise the move to remove people from housing internet benefits because actually if we are seeing that some of the crime that we saw on the streets was an expression of people not feeling porter society not feeling proud working unities then these measures are actually going to push people further away from society further away from our communities and far more likely to commit crime the facebook case is the first sign of the government's desire to crackdown on social media sites like twitter were applauded by the west to mobilize

. the masses in the arab world but they were also instrumental in the u.k. riots so now the prime minister wants it to stop we are working with the police the intelligence services and industry to look at whether it would be right to stop people communicating via these websites or services when we know they are plotting violence disorder and criminality and social media fuel revolutions in egypt cinching britain called it democracy but now the shoe's on the other foot and troubles closer to home i'm very conscious we knew you know the. poor. movement. we. thought it. was. the prime minister says this is where britain fights back but it's appeared this fighting fire with fire could only fan the flames of civil disorder part of bennett's party london. a collective economic

a government that's the latest measure proposed by leaders in their bid to halt market turmoil and reverse the stagnation across the continent but the latest ideas have found little support among investors who say it's come as too little and too late angela merkel and nicolas sarkozy rejected the idea of euro bonds favored by the markets and seen there by many as the best way of emerging from the debt crisis and according to international consultant and former belgian m.p. lord vamoosed the entire affair was a p.r. boost for him and politicians similarly who went on to biggest economies of the european monetary union get together it is off course always meaningfully only on the psychological level nice meeting stand to draw the line of should be the euro zone countries said last inning general so whenever they decide there is basically taken i'm going the other countries are not going absolute ones that cost here not going out and once it has the money there. he lost in this crisis i mean why not

talk about the raising taxes on those people minute you're talking about we think social demands on these bailouts philip grange and sarkozy are facing huge problems with the popularity in the in the polls so i think it's also knew which image should building answer not so much return finding a real solution. and in yet another blow to the eurozone the blocks a second one hundred sixty billion euro bailout for greece may be under threat athens has agreed to provide finland with collateral in return for its contribution to the financial rescue package but it's sparked indignation among the b. other fifteen donors some of which are now also demanding collateral analysts however warn that greece is incapable of handing out such guarantees and professor of applied economics patrick meant for says that lack of direction in the e.u. isn't helping it battle its crisis. there's obviously

a lot of uncertainty about the eurozone and what will happen because the euro zone summit wasn't very conclusive or helpful in that respect so that's a great deal of uncertainty which is worrying the markets about the situation of buying so in europe i think that will be resolved but it may take some time to resolve it that's the problem meanwhile the markets are very nervous and the eurozone will be i will take time to sort itself out either the euro will break up all day will produce a fiscal union with big transfer to bail all these countries out nobody really quite knows which. that won't be resolved anytime soon but i think what it is happening what is happening is that the western economies the richer economies are having a harder time of it because you know all the growth if you like in realty of raw materials is being taken by countries like china and india and brazil and so that's leaving very little scope for the richer countries to grow their groaning under

these very high oil prices you know which depress their incomes and make them much more cautious. syria's president assad has given a live t.v. interview saying that the regime is not in danger of falling and that the government is able to deal with the current unrest in the country syrian state media have condemned u.s. and european polls for president assad to step down saying the move is part of a conspiracy russia has also refused to back the calls saying assad should be given more try to implement promised reforms is common in the wake of a crackdown on anti-government protesters it is or it is more of an ocean of reports while the west see the government's action as of pressure some in syria see it as a protection for a group of people comes job is done the city liberated there is order in the east of the country has become the last syrian city the army left after clearing off extremists that have been terrorizing its citizens for weeks claimed. bandits plot

their rights put up barricades it became a gay city we were hiding we were just like hostages. soldiers of the syrian army out living in the city all of. the iraqi border. officials are saying operation is now over that the city has been freed from groups as you can see people are welcome in the soldiers as the way there is twelve tanks have been trying to make their way through jubilant crowds thousands of kilometers away in the white house situation has already matured president bashar assad is the one who's terrorizing the syrian people and that should and the transition to democracy in syria has begun and it's time for assad to get out of the way not everybody has agreed though it has insisted that assad should be given time to implement promised changes his recent decisions to release political prisoners for appeal emergency law and allow

peaceful demonstrations have indicated the right direction but external pressure could still bury fred child transition. reforms would give forces to syria that will make the country stronger but syria's anime's don't want syria to be strong america for instance they're sick and tired of a strong syria and they want to weaken it they don't want reforms they need instability and chaos across the country as long as possible and their pressure works for it with contradicts your reports about policemen and security officers killed across the country and the army's continued crackdown on protesters despite president assad's pledges to the un to stop military operations and syrian people no longer know who to trust and what to believe. with a country at the crossroads again the on themselves with patience refinishing r.t. syria. and of course we will keep you updated on the developments in libya as they
