un security council members didn't monitor the end of the violence in syria it's to try and prevent the five prizing from descending into any libyan sonali they. believe be in rebels are poised to crush the last pockets of resistance from colonel gadhafi supporters with time running out for the loyalists who lay down on them. in the weeks of the top stories israelis organize the countries and begin government rally demanding more money spent on living standards not settlements and military. crane turns off the heat and it can surround with russia threatening court action against moscow as the prices of the kremlin's depending on previously agreed times.

are very warm welcome to you this is the live from moscow the un's most powerful body should demand an end to the violence in syria all parties it's done on a local that's russia as you outlined by the foreign minister during a meeting with his brazilian counterpart on sunday. we strongly believe it's unacceptable to instigate the syrian opposition to continue boycotting suggestions to start a dialogue this is a call for if people believe in scenario the brics nations will not allow these to help them the un security council will not tolerate how it's reason lucian's being implemented. so russia has sharply criticized the latest against syria calling them

harmful and in effect solving the crisis europe's imposing an oil embargo would want to further steps to force president assad's and. crackdown on protesters the u.n. claims that more than two thousand died since the anti-government demonstrations began in march but some including the syrian government say the reports about the cold plates apart from reality are to anything this is among the few international journalists on the ground here she found. mass murder tearing catastrophe a country on the brink of a revolution this is what you see every time syria pops up in the headlines but what is really happening in a country where hardly any foreign journalists are present there's even been the implication that some of the images we're being shown have been digitally manipur manipulated and there have been reports about that are available online that you can watch of the footage that was taken in bahrain said to be taken in hama and it's showing the scenes footage and different stations with different backgrounds

the police rocking so there are some very strange things that are going on right now an example of such manipulation is the case of palestinian refugees in the coastal city of latakia the stadium in the dock it became the center of a controversy when according to various reports anywhere from several hundred to seven thousand people were gathered here most of those people were palestinian refugees who came from the palestinian refugee camp in the sunni quarter of let's talk here now according to the opposition forces and to some of the palestinians when they got to the stadium their ideas were taken away their cell phones were also taken away and they really prepared for the worst because you have to realize that herding large numbers of people into stadiums here is somewhat of a very macabre macabre association especially in this particular region saddam hussein has developed sort of a practice of hurting people in stadiums and then and then committing mass executions we went to the part of the city which supposedly came under fire from well planes in the ships and spoke to the refugees to find out what happened. some

people walking around the neighborhood yelling there will be shelling from sea soon and everyone has to get out i didn't go anywhere just stayed in my house i can see the bay from my window and there was nothing in there aside from the usual patrol boats still gunfire did break out between the army and unknown gunmen so some five thousand palestinians left their homes fearing for their own. we wanted to read so that our kids wouldn't hear the gunshots we hear in our house and when there was a break in the fighting we went to the stadium we stayed there for three days then came back to london so did two thousand refugees only to realise there was no air and navy attack taking place on the city. like we were lying to the largest syrian authorities have long been insisting armed groups are behind the unrest in syria and it's them who start shooting first the history should come to

bloodshed those statements are or what ignored by the media. syria is fighting a media war and its losing it over. the syrian government might have realized its mistake of banishing foreign journalists from the country media law has overturned that but there is no guarantee it will go a long way towards achieving serious image as portrayed on major networks even those courtsey syria. and across in libya the rebels have surrounded one of the last remaining strongholds of colonel gadhafi supporters the town of bani walid southeast of tripoli but loyalists there have been given until next saturday to surrender but rebel against say they expect the sound off in the town to be resolved within the next twenty four hours when all these we have a national is in the libyan capital for us it's cost lives and now we're in the rebels over around tripoli song two weeks ago now assisted by nato airstrikes

what's taking so long to round up the remaining. well is theory known as many valued south east of the capital tripoli some two hundred kilometers from the place where we are now has all the time been considered as could not his main stronghold but it's played this is also been really is the name for the tribe population this area one of the biggest lead been tried and staunch in the devotion to the embattled colonel it's played a prominent role during the current uprising he libya since the beginning of the brands here in february people from these tribal have been fighting against the rebels all across libya. is from this area have been dying for khadafy in misrata things bragger and in other cities they've been all the time ardently support colonel who's provided them with the past weaponry in the past and actually conducted himself as well as he had all the time in thought to hide in that area

and that's why many here on the ground are saying that if the rubbles manage to take place stronghold that will officially mean the end of the colonel and the regime's fall so as you can understand what's right now going on some two hundred kilometers from the capital tripoli could indeed be considered as the rubble pile grabs the size of battle no one can say for sure how much time which will take the rebels to free but the new government minister has recently claimed. to take it within the next day or two at the same time we can expect the people would not be easy because recently. this land has appeared on t.v. claiming that they would never surrender and lobel fives to. the rebels had been preparing for peace for a long time with nato helping them clean past towards the city bombing cities

around for quite a long time so we can. i've made that base fight. is very important for the rabbits and this is actually the size of battle. with the council have recently claimed to be called for old people still in the areas controlled by bike. to come over to its side from the scene there will not be any revenge for their safety it would be guaranteed for them back to you guys and libya's new leadership the national transitional council that you referred to has still not actually moved to tripoli yet to officially assume the role of the new government so they leave something of a power vacuum in the capital. that is the situation here in the libyan capital is very complicated the streets are literally although full of. people

armed rebel fighters actually you and clear. initial transitional council have recently repeatedly been claiming that three police say three police now say. the national transitional council the rebels there is coming here from benghazi soon but so far we haven't seen is sign of them here in live in capital so this. is now safe and secure. meanwhile many here are concerned that. these rebel fighters would be very hard to be controlled meanwhile the interior minister has recently claimed that the national council will soon try to bring these people under control but as we can see here they're not quite successful so far here's my report about that. my hammer is a libyan rebel he got a bullet in his ankle fighting against gadhafi soldiers in tsushima tripoli but

with his shot coming from his own side. i didn't even notice until my friend told me that my foot was bleeding he pulled the trigger by mistake he was soul spirit himself. this is a reality of today's leave here for when the rebels triumphant march through the country tons of gadhafi is captured weapons have fallen into the hands of nonprofessional fighters one of the biggest stories was discovered at a top security prison in southern tripoli where inmates were released after nato bombed the area of the dude was the father of three young boys refuses to appear on camera still fearing revenge from qaddafi loyalists he was among the first to seen and held destroy the arsenal. which they don't want broken snowball into the hands of my sons or the youngsters i'm concerned with our country will be going with

ground rules this is a very dangerous thing it's not a toy but with the country it was with arms it looks like libyan kids have already developed a fascination for the weapons of war but. when i go out i have real life and will kill bad guys like a daft thing when you're thor's you say you go through gathering up weapons from mosques i hope police are back on the streets the young gunman demonstrate their readiness to. will give it back to them as soon as they ask a system which many here are afraid that this addiction may have a painful withdrawal and the girl has become one of the symbols of the libyan rebels and freedom for a new country though people want more peaceful symbols but fear that all be easy for many to lay down their arms when the guard has played such a prominent role throughout libya's volatile history. r.t. tripoli libya. now some of the nato countries that helped else to colonel gadhafi

are now rushing to secure lucrative oil deals in libya and it seems rebel leaders are all too willing to offer allies a juicy reward but one antiwar activists believes it's robbing the libyan people of their nation's riches we're in a situation now where the old regime appears to be over in libya and any aspiring new regime should be spending its time listening to the desires of the ordinary people in libya nor. listening to the lectures which i reckon they're going to be getting from the world's great powers it strikes me that this is like something out of the nineteenth century where the big imperialist colonial powers are dictating to. what is basically a leadership they themselves have selected about exactly who's going to get what france is going to get thirty five percent of the oil no doubt britain will be putting in a big claim for another thirty or so other countries will be following suit and all

right just leave it the rating is being chaired by the two main protagonists the british prime minister and the french. leader what is going on we were told this was a war that was being fought for humanitarian reasons it's in fact turned into what is basically a nato take over the country as far as i can see. so is gone this hour putting pressure on the press the british police flex their muscles at the media telling news groups that they have a responsibility to one day for why if you see just looters to help make arrests. across israel a few areas public have been making sure their governments in no doubt about their anger with the largest demonstration in the country's history social process have been swelling for two months against the high cost of housing corruption and open living standards police clear reports from the biggest rally in tel aviv. it is the

climax of nearly two months of social protests here in israel the largest that this country has ever seen now for weeks organizers have been touting a million man march they were really hoping that a million people would turn out on the streets of israel though we're hearing figures of some three hundred and fifty thousand that's three hundred fifty thousand in ten cities where here in tel aviv is the main focal point various speakers as well as artists have been addressing the crowd the rallying call remains that of social justice with people here demanding that the netanyahu government change its focus away from issues of security to issues of social justice that people here are saying that it is simply too expensive to live in israel. now one of the new surrogates we're hearing is where were you september third that is a throwback to november the fourth ninety ninety five when the former israeli prime minister yitzhak rabin was assassinated people say where were you then so of course people here are saying where are you now with people really wanting to come to the streets and make a change and native voices heard and yet instead of concentrating on domestic

problems israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been focused on the international stage on september the twenty fifth palestinians will go to the united nations to declare a state and it in yahoo has responded by arming settlers and trying to convince countries not to support the palestinian move instead of listening to the discount old messes at home. other people are demanding more money to spend on social programs not settlement building and military operations as an illicit gershon baskin in telling r.t. . the social concerns are extremely valid and the gaps between rich and poor in israel are grown from a society to thirty years ago was one of the most egalitarian in the world today to the sections of gaps between rich and poor only after the united states we have a problem of increasing privatization a philosophy that our prime minister adheres to and what we've seen privatized in israel over the past years are serious social services which should provide to be

provided by the government in education health and welfare and again the cost of living keeps going up and people earning two salaries or two clearly a household with the cost of education health and welfare can not make it to the end of the month we've heard a lot of voices in israel when asking the protestors and those who are leading them that when you come to pay for all these social services and to close the gaps to answers that come up quite often is one take money away from the very high military budget and the other is to transfer money which is going from the settlements in the occupied territories to building inside of israel proper so there is a conflict here this government of israel today is a right wing religious supported government which supports the consideration of building settlements and there will be conflict here. now in just a few minutes from now the war crimes tribunals. the hague starts this channel for an interview with former bosnian serb general right hand that is he's on trial for

genocide when explained why. and. again with a rallying cry and so russia threatens and in course care is having trouble paying nationalize energy firm with russia's gas problems it's a bring costs down kremlin incest contracts come your eyes unilaterally and will stand its ground. reports. very harsh words are coming from both sides and right now the ukraine president b.p. amoco which is saying that his country is being humiliated in the course of negotiations over the gas price and also says that ukraine might take this whole negotiation process into international court in stockholm to try to have the two thousand and nine gas deals revised moscow's position is that it is ready to accept any legal action because it is completely confident that justice is on its side and it's ready to fight on course should this happen saying that until

a proper commercial offer comes in the price will stay the same and the negotiations will continue no the essence of this dispute this time is that ukraine has been very much unhappy with the price it is paying for the russian gas and right now it plays up to four hundred u.s. dollars which is a market price for one thousand cubic meters of gas and it wants a lower price once a discount at the same time mosco says that any commercial offer would justify the discount something like should that be either a merger of the ukrainian gas when opel is not for gas would be russian gas from or a purchase by most of the transportation gas transportation system in ukraine this harsh stance by ukraine sent shock waves across europe many have been worried whether they would be another gas were another disruption of supplies in three pm continent but the russian energy minister said that something like what happened in two thousand and nine will not happen this time that there is still enough time to find a proper compromise solution besides russia is no longer so strongly dependent on

the gas transportation system in ukraine to deliver its gas supplies to europe we know that several new pipelines are being built i right now the north stream pipeline is due to be completed pretty much soon the south stream pipeline will also be available in the next few years so the gas war of two thousand and i will not repeat again even if there will be serious gas conflict and possible suspension of supplies to ukraine coming in the next several months or maybe starting next year. now it's happy birthday to the big city moscow is eight hundred and sixty four years old in the russian capitals marking it in big style with better balls than my words and a massive laser show millions are expected to take part in what turning out to be the most expensive city day celebrations in moscow's long history around seven hundred events are scheduled across the capital with concerts in the plods along with major art exhibitions of the city's public squares rather an awful

a show will be a laser show like no other with russia is all this university the sensation in this world could be a record breaker you can watch it here live on aussie in just a few hours from now. ok we're following the celebrations taking place across russia's capital of course on our website so you had to alter dot com for more. day and the other news that we're covering for you online right now as we hear from an award winning serbian film director about his plans to build a traditional russian village in an ethnic settlement and heads are given up. on red squares rousing spectacular see thirty eight of the annual military do which rounds off this sunday with russian and foreign armed forces the balance showing neftali. beating drums to an easy to choose red square. this week despite scotto military type two

offers you stick to actual standards. and r.t. dot com gives you front row seats just. and enjoy the show. british police are putting pressure on journalists to handle the thirtieth of last month's riots in order to identify news his inaction let me organizations are resisting the request to protect editorial standards and avoid being feelers evidence capitol hill far seems piece of forces across the country approach media groups to voluntarily hand do use and unseen footage the scotland yard said it would attain a court order to pull off disclosure of material if necessary investment journeys to any goslings the police run the risk of compromising fundamental platform. i was very disappointed to see that david cameron in the emergency debate about the riots was actually saying and i quote the media has a responsibility to hand over pictures and i think this is absolutely appalling

thing to say that's the sort of thing you would expect in a police state where the police can go down to the independent broadcasters and just demand footage and details of people who've been taking. film this kind of thing they go around potentially and raid their homes too so i don't know where they become is coming from on this because i know we live in a liberal democracy and we've got a free and independent press the other thing is ultimately what's going to happen in a demonstration situation if you're going to have the crown turning on the journalist they will come again even possibly link camera people thinking and if this goes through quite rightly in this case thinking that these people are actually this they're filming evidence for the police and this is an absolutely unacceptable situation police in the media are trying to do a similar thing in certain circumstances sitting on a crime is just like in life and it's very important that both of them are doing it independently they have got forty thousand they told us hours of c.c.t.v.

footage to go through and it seems to me that maybe they're getting a bit bored with doing that and actually trying to actually co-opt the press in britain to be evidence gatherers for the police and that would be a horrendous thing if it ever takes place. ok let's bring you some of today's more world news right now in the film a head of the international monetary fund dominique his last term has returned to fraud self destructs assault charges were dropped against a new u.s. he was arrested in whom it may all through a hotel maid accused him of the ten to the great strolls town was put on the house arrest but later the case against him was dismissed by a judge as well as having to quit the i.m.f. he faces another step for allegations of fronts i know this is. iran's first nuclear power plant is now opposing electricity into the country's national grid work on the bruce ethnicity the gallon divides in seventy's but construction stalled on to a million scenes with russians them specialists going through says both countries

are research agreements that suspends its knowledge fuel from the plant sends to russia to reduce western concern that iran could use the materials to build nuclear arms. and still movie has reached. the southern us as a state of emergency in the region as well as policy of mississippi river accusations are taking place up to fifty centimeters of rain are expected over the next few days in louisiana including new orleans which is still haunted by the katrina flood design stuff the gail collins less than the week after hurricane irene and forty people in the u.s. . the victims of russia's deadliest terror atrocity have been remembered in the town of beslan well over three hundred and thirty people died mostly children were killed in the school this week thousands of people paid their respects to the victims of the attack which happened seven years ago hundreds of billions were released in a symbolic display to the murdered children and the other innocents who died the

chair was held around a thousand people hostage in the school for three days without food or water. the u.n. war crimes tribunal has missed a key piece of evidence in the trial against the balkans was lost. is also for a copy of an archive interview with a former bosnian serb general which aired just a few weeks ago on this channel it was recorded shortly after the supreme it's a massacre in ninety ninety five thousands of muslim men and boys that were killed it shows not it should making serious allegations against un peacekeepers. and these are now reports. what was an archive of never before seen video footage of that interview before r t published it summit two weeks ago very serious claims there and really that's what makes it so shocking that the tribunals missed this what could be very important evidence in the trial archie of course will fully cooperate and hand over that video footage to help with the ongoing proceedings in

the hague i just want to give you an idea of what exactly was said in that interview one of the strongest statements as we see it and i'm quoting here is instead of disarming the muslim formations as they had committed themselves to doing the united nations forces trying to safe areas into terrorist and fundamentalist bases from where our villages and towns were attacked now malott it also goes on to say that he believes the un was smuggling weapons into demilitarized zone so you can see the severity of these claims and how they could possibly be very important evidence and again shocking really that the hague tribunals missed this twelve first off because it was filmed in one thousand nine hundred five just after the serbian it's a massacre which is one of the atrocities that milan inches is being accused of why he's standing trial in the first place and second of all it was filmed by a western t.v. station is available in the bosnian are costly very surprising that this video

footage which could certainly be a very important moments and very important material in the trial dismissed by the tribunals and its eighteen years of existence the tribe you know has faced harsh criticism about it being biased its fiercest critics go on to say that it's a political show not a court of law and this is going to not weaken those inflames and by this i mean of course this latest news that the tribe you know mr what could be very important evidence and part of the fact the reason i should say and what these critics base their facts on is that seventy percent of the indictments that the court has issued have all been against serbs and when you look at. who is been tried over the past almost two decades you could say when you look at the search side and then all there are known that serve generals or officials that have been tried a lot of them have been given much last year sentences and some of them have even been acquitted and again this latest if you will missing of evidence by the

tribunals is not going to help in criticism that the hague is in fact aietes of an interview with iraq came out it is online in full on our website dot com as well as an all you cheap channel you cheap dull column a slash right i'll be back with a recap of today's top stories and as we've had lines after a very short break something away. from.
