crisis that happened on this day seven years ago and took the lives of over three hundred people mostly children that's a special report next. it's morning the sky is quietly quiet but suddenly i hear a sweet maladie coming from the farm and mark is singing i think a bird's eye view of the people below is fascinating now they have turned on the light in one of the houses and three barefooted boys have emerged from another one i can hear a barking dog and crowing roosters sounds have filled the silence as for myself i keep flying in the sky i'm a cloud. the twelve year old girl by the name of emma is dedicated these lines

to home town of beslan which is situated at a thousand miles south of moscow emma lloyd's being videotaped she signs this recording with the simple word hello. today or going to interview a grand cap. how are you. fine and. what about your family it's. also ok right emma loves her cat she likes to film it on video and she has a dream but after we finish school my friends and i would like to go to moscow and study high fashion. emma adores her best friends. and my gina and odds are they spend practically all of their time together.

that finishing and once so boards tell our viewers. emma she wants to say i wish our viewers happiness and help. these sharks stay back to the summer of two thousand. the four best friends no longer live in best. there is called the town of angels a cemetery. one hundred eighty six children are buried here and they all died on the same day. september third two thousand. and. eight. as.

let's go. slower and says we wait for this is that right. so slow in the day so are ten years old they're twins. at the time of their best one school siege they were only four. but they still remember every minute of the

just in events of september two thousand. when there was a child that their son went there is true lies and conmen one of the cheeriest was here. ever get fired it seems was. on the first of september of two thousand and four so slow in the military so poor to young to start school. but in a small town like this lawn at the beginning of a new school year is a great occasion to slum in the research for a moment children do the festivities. we were told that all of the girls should wear school uniforms on september first that's a brown dress and a white apron.

if they decided at that occasion they wouldn't invite their mothers to take part in the history of it she asked me if i had to go to school to recover it emma said it wouldn't want you around we're adults already. touched my lips with my fingers bites and as if sent in a case to my daughter who. i thought when she returned home i was covered with cases with. the death was the last one of the sweetest piece of all. over with friends to share stories from the summer holidays but that festive atmosphere was cut short. it's. the first i thought it was the sound of bursting balloons or something. but then i got really scared when i saw people smashing windows. and running away as fast as they come plus.

i. backed away trying to along on holding million not my baby in my hands suddenly i thought oh my god i see a thousand people rushing towards me i thought flashed through my mind i'm going to be killed in this town people picture. it's a really nice lower crowded into the gym as if we were cattle man for the slaughter

house was searched wherever we could some on the floor others on the bench as senior pros were told just as country pliers from the ceiling only then did i realize what was going on. that it bombs were in that ring. there was one in the middle and smaller ones on each side. the hostages were instructed to stay on the ground more than a thousand people sat on the floor of the gym with bomb suspended over their heads the terrorists demanded complete silence the hostages were not to shout cry or talk . is still a kid so crying we were told the heart of our and this is where we were then made believe or a hard thing they came to see who was talking and who wasn't there some machine guns were always at the ready but that had no effect the kids were crying as loudly

as before. i witness that all the men were going out of the room at one time and they never came back well. the men were taken to a room on the second floor. where they were shot and thrown from the window. at the end of the two pm girls out of the gym and writes them i mean these were very young girls what would possess someone to do something that oil. once one of the boys came up to a terrorist and gave him five roubles thank you for your money and the new lead my mother go he said and the terrorist responded of them we've got loads of money go back to your place. the terrorists spoke to each other in the chechen language on the first day they made no demands. by my daughter in law said to my son to martin

do you take that jacket off it's too stuffy here as soon as we get out of here are by you several jackets to my said no it's a present from my mum. the terrorists announced their demands only towards evening of the second day. they sit in a note to russian troops must leave the republic which was then and still is part of the russian federation and. i hope somebody would turn the clock but. somebody would kill the terrorists and set us free. was it a standstill for the fathers and mothers of the children they never left the scene hoping they'd soon see their kids again. for two days and nights their children had been bullied and humiliated they'd been deprived of food and deprived of water it.

down to the first day we would be able to leave the place soon and then would go to a shop to buy some dreams and as soon as we got to. their school building after the terrorist attack i had a bottle of water with me i always keep a bottle of water on my bed and i keep the lights turned on because i cannot sleep in the dark. the children eat flowers they brought for their teachers to mark the start of a new school year they trained here and to quench their thirst though that made them even thirsty or. the only available source of water was trickling out of the tap in the toilets some of the children were occasionally allowed to go there.

sponge themselves don was tory's soaked in water thirst was too much mature she for some of the children this. i was in close. people still bring bottles filled with water to the gym they do it every day they always leave the bottles open to make it easier for the young angels to drink. the mass of people think gathered outside. on the third day. id expected our kids to be released there's no doubt in our minds that they'd be harmed so that they could be harmed we never entered our heads. and i was pretty scared when i heard the sound of an explosion overhead but at the

moment i could breathe more freely the blast had ripped open the roof lowering some air into the gym besides many of the people had stopped breathing. in discriminates gunfire panic stricken adults. get older. she is a law. allowed stain children wearing nothing but underwear rushing out of the gym . some of them were shot in the back. they go down two or three bottles of water but couldn't force searched. when i opened my eyes after the blast i saw the girl sitting next to me but my son wasn't anywhere near me i started looking for him all over the place good god i thought could he be dead.

comment about the first thing i saw after the blast one was a lightbulb hanging on the ceiling everything around me. turned black i just went to look for my mother sure mom thanks. i approached the boy lying on the floor blood was losing out of his had looked very much like my son and i couldn't bring myself to come closer instead to a woman who was near me. is it my comic. fortunately for him to tell you the dead boy's name was not to my lawn and i tell you son had survived the blast and so had her two daughters my mom stylist go on christina. and to tell you is unable to walk her left arm is almost motionless she was injured before the main blast by a fragment from a grenade exploded in the hands of one of the terrorists then fragment remains

stuck in her head for two days as she sat in the gym trying to comfort her three children doctors say no tell you still has a chance of recovering from her injuries but it requires a long rehabilitation process and much money she's only thirty five years old. my dream is to be in a special forces it was such officers that saved us and i want to get revenge on. the twins salonen a lot of escaped death due to their mother's heroism she threw them out of the window right after the gym blast she also saved several other children and thankfully they managed to survive the ordeal herself. this is me and my dad. hungry for the full stop we've got a first hand the biggest issues get

a human voice face to face with the news makers r t. the children of beslan may have had some sense of foreboding before the terrorist attack after the tragedy parents found it odd looking for aunts startling verses

and morose entries and diaries among the items of their dead children. these pictures were read by all of a tug of his son seymour he hopes to become an artist although most of his paintings should landscapes for some inexplicable reason he made a nobel turn in the summer of two thousand and four. i would keep the hopefulness he dreamed this picture shortly before the tragedy it shows an explosion as you can see one of the schoolchildren was going towards the building they didn't but while the other one was thrown up into the air there were. it was our it's a boy of truth this picture. it shows a school a gym helicopters a fire a crowd of people around the island says and five fighters kuwait was at that school . i was down and when i first saw it.

this zoeller straw it why did it all of an year old boy draw a picture of a school in this context we will never know the seller died in the terrorist attack . the most horrific part of it all came when the fire had been extinguished and the terrorists and been killed. parents knew years searching for their children. i went through a terrible experience each time i saw an ambulance pulling up in front of the school. i never even looked at the first downhill and says there were heading to the more. as soon as that counter one of the wards are unable to mirror shouts to me i've

seen that. i say to him where is she to me or i can't find her to which she says i saw her in the chair. there were keys to our apartment in his pockets and they compared them with my own case it became clear that the boy was to more. basic i still can't we came under the pillow and i go to bed. one in three hostages died in that fire i spent three days looking for my don't a month is dead bodies before i found. many artists and several months there.

was so when i went out of the house and i saw the coffin i was so glad that i had found her. i put my arms around the coffin as if embrace in it as if trying to help other is a point here. i'm not sure i can accurately describe my emotions but i think i was glad and by the fact that they had found her. time has not healed any wounds from these people the simple fact is over the years these ascensions have learned to live with their pain. children are no longer afraid of going to school and goals have reconciled themselves with the thought

that letting them go to school is not dangerous. should mean no avoids generous. today he prefers playing music to playing sports. he lost his best friend in the terrorist attack of two thousand and four and since then he's met nobody they can replace or. oversleep and now i take things easier. i would say. that six percent of what happened six years ago has evaporated from my mind. much is left a mere ninety four years.

this year i mean it is second order million will start school. and the time of the terrorist attack she was just a year old at one point the terrorists allowed mothers and their babies to leave the gym. and you to came out with a millionaire in her arms. her older daughter along had to stay behind not long after she was killed. in memory of the little here it's over there. in russia. each sunday and yet ten million visit the ruins of the school to them the place is like

a church they come here to pray. and. we thought all people would be like think after what happened things and they would all understand that everything was perishable. they would realize there was only one thing worth living for and taking care of. so much that never happened. in the knows exactly what she's supposed to do in the gym she picks up empty bottles lights candles and puts flowers in order seem to it that her mother doesn't cry. there's harry's white now precious trying to stir it when they're going to school for the first time it won't be my first is certain there will destroy the reasons to celebrate mother with their hair my first day and i will start school. lost

her only daughter in the attack the past years have not helped ease her pain you know prefers to put her thoughts on paper rather than speaking aloud. yet. moans and nothing my defiance i'm a thing i knew what i'm designed for it's flower was. the first and most treasured flower that helped me understand my fleet has perished. doesn't she began irene she often spends time really reading those of her daughter emma emma had hoped to work in the fashion business she's left behind many miracle verses and funny stories we never know whether the world lost a great writer or dancer. that.

we were not so good when we get together at the cemetery pushchair our collections of our kids. sometimes we haven't laughed so at the best years by must think it odd that people laugh over the graves of their children and indeed sometimes we feel rather uncomfortable. but we can't help recalling some final episodes from their lives. today many see the town of angel cemetery as a holy place these graves are kept ideally the marble always looks big and span the photos never fade. there's not a single dry flower and the ribbons on the graves mean that particular boy or girl

would have finished school this year. with my guards there is a sense we live in an entirely different world. just what happened then was like having your head in the cats and now the situation is quite different and life is different. sloane and lisa now have a brother and a sister their mother and father have decided they must have many children and the more the merrier says one has decided that he'll be a policeman when he grows up and larissa is still in two minds about what she hopes to do when she's older. and the terrorist attack on the best one school in the one claim three hundred thirty five lives including one hundred eighty six children. all of their photos are shown this year. they sort of look come artists musicians economists or doctors or just simply mothers and fathers of

a new generation. in a recent survey people in beslan were asked whether they wanted to have the ruins of the school left as they were or torn galaxy ever listened they found looking at the land market in human filthy every day a traumatic experience. and yet it was decided not to tear down the school instead it will stand as a reminder of the atrocity and not just for the citizens of this line. it will be forever a reminder to the whole world that should never forget what happened on that day. i skirted nothing to wish evil people it's for good people i wish there were doris day that way. and there was this world is beautiful as a la theirs and even more beautiful.
