the. libyan rebels prepare to attack want of colonel qadhafi is the last to desert stronghold after efforts to negotiate a surrender of his remaining supporters breakdown. for un must immediately urge talks in the syrian conflict says russia after condemning the e.u. sanctions which threaten to hurt the people not the regime. and overcrowded u.k. prisons are a breaking point the government hands out tough jail sentences hard line approach to street rioters and looters.

it's eight am in the russian capital you're watching r.t.i. marina joshie media's rebel forces have surrounded the colonel gadhafi held desert town of bani walid southeast of tripoli saying talks with former leaders loyalists have failed could office troops have been given until saturday to surrender and avoid further bloodshed the colonel who is still at large is thought to be in town three other cities controlled by troops are now being encircled by rebels ready for a final assault the interim leadership claims cut off his youngest son who commanded and leave military brigade was killed in the past week artie's maria from reports from libya. is the name for the tried population to syria 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 outcries and he libya since the beginning of the vans here aid ferry people from these tried have been fighting against the rebels all across the bullet. she is from this area have been dyed for khadafy.

things bragger and in other cities they've been all the time ardently supporting the colonel who's provided them with the past weaponry in the past and actually as well as his son's time he thought to hide in that area and that's why many here on the ground are saying that if the rebels manage to take this stronghold that will officially mean the aunt of the colonel and the regimes for the national transitional council have recently repeatedly been claiming that police say to police now secure but rebels there is coming here from benghazi soon but so far we haven't seen is find of them here in live in capitals the situation here is very complicated the streets are literally all the rubble are just actually clear agenda of the interior minister has recently claimed that the national council will soon try to bring these people under the control but as we can see here they're not five

successful so far. previously reporting there now two weeks since the media capital fell the interim government's already being criticized by its own allies key rebel military commanders calling other leaders of the national transitional council to resign for being asked off loyalists political satirist ted rall says a new civil war seems inevitable i have some sympathy for. the lobby and his call to get rid of all the former regime figures it's not much of a revolution if you have former officials from the ex and from the government this is just and opposed certainly you would see any kind of division like that uses in a scenario where a revolution is not fully realized and that seems to be the situation in libya any kind of revolutionary new is an alliance of convenience but in the end you end up with the shah masood in afghanistan once said in the one nine hundred eighty s. in the war against the soviets first we kill the russians next to kill each other

in libya will be killed there and they will think if we kill because of the regime and now they're going to kill each other russia says the u.n. should immediately call all sides in the syrian conflict to stop violence and start talking russia's foreign minister says president bashar al assad has already implemented reforms aimed at solving the conflict as sergey lavrov also admitted not all theory and opposition members want to engage in talks with the government lover of caution against encouraging protesters to stay away from negotiations last week the e.u. opposed that oil embargo against syria and warrant a further steps of a five month crackdown did the start as a renegotiate report sanctions seem more likely to affect the syrian people that if it worries. the dealer is a master barber those small his shop was floor until it all ended in the snip. and there are many customers that would come from a forest when you kilometers away from damascus but now the flow has come down

a lot first came the unrest and then the crackdown then the west's quickly stepped in with sanctions to survive is to put the economic pressure on for cheap the political come from the bunch and help the people of syria to achieve something just an aspiration at first all major credit card transactions were stopped earlier this month but that mainly affected foreign tourists because syria runs its own payment system and those with syrian accounts didn't feel the pinch however the e.u. and the us are tightening their grip by opposing oil embargo on damascus so will that have any probable effect on the people here. or sanctions will have a negative effect on syrian economy it's a diversified economy with a stable debt which gives it a certain immunity against these sanctions. and this is not just government gloss in the face of impose adversity syrian opposition figures are also unconvinced but for a different reason. government have chosen their path and no matter what measures

are taken against them they continue down that route. sanctions are sold as a precise weapon to hit where it hurts but syrian alba lists a third to belong to tool and it's the people who will suffer the most when you are talking about the oil brought up the oil. but while the power dealers of the west in syria trade insults and blows for syrian workers like my dear the daily battle is to keep his modest livelihood together while hoping for the best. i believe business will pick up again or pull through even r t damascus syria. so i have for you this hour demanding a future. government focuses on social justice rather than security as people take

to the streets in the biggest protest yet. and as america's top commander in afghanistan bids his final farewell to the military will look out the problems he's leaving behind. is the same. maybe. we'll see some really great financial contraction millions lost their jobs but the rich will be gotten richer should the rich pay. really the latest. from. the future. if you. didn't take three years for charges three arrangement three. three. three.

three volunteers to video for your media project c.e.o. john darche dot com. their case chief prosecutor says looters are being punished too harshly the unrest and great the country in early august stop people smashing windows burning cars and looting shops hundreds have since been given stiff sentences in already overcrowded jails but the prime minister has called tough love but as our genes are about reports the system could be at breaking point. prisons in england and wales have never been for nearly eighty seven thousand inmates are jammed in a record high just one and a half thousand short of maximum capacity now the government's hardline response to the recent riots across england means those spaces at disappearing fast we're now

looking at literally what we can pack into the sort of internet and i think that's very unwise and we mean well see the disturbances in the streets and the transfer to the prisons almost a thousand writers are in custody so far and there's plenty more to come the police are aiming to charge three thousand with seventy percent being put behind bars but this rate they won't be any space left by most prisons in britain wandsworth was at bursting point even before the riots just forty five people short of its next mom capacity of one thousand six hundred sixty five that's already fifty percent over its recommended living two out of three prisons currently exeat this vide safe limit inmates double up in cells smaller the nine square meters sharing and open toilets most prisons are in desperate need of upgrade wandsworth was built in the victorian period times literally stood still but nothing escapes austerity here

especially when it costs forty five thousand pounds a year to howe's an inmate a prison building steams been reversed despite prisoner numbers doubling in the last two decades staff and now out numbered ball to one. has actually only fractionally increased by a couple of percent but we're expected to do the same job of rehabilitation in such difficult circumstances and in effect what you are actually to the us with those prisoners and i don't think that is the answer to society's problem. the government thinks it is encouraging tough sentences to deter more writers like this man who got sixteen months for stealing just two scoops of ice cream but others fear but the cramped conditions base will only if you re offending if you send people to prison. i don't suggest that it is it is not by any

means the most effective way of reducing reoffending we know that certainly with young people and we can quote short term prison sentences up to seventy s. and pink or with within twelve months of coming out that cannot be a good use of resources and better ways of doing it but prison service insists it has enough prison places for those being sentenced to custody as a result of public disorder adding there is substantial capacity in the prison system we currently have enough prison places for those being sentenced to custody as a result of public disorder there is substantial capacity in the prison system but the numbers suggest otherwise pushing an already stretched system to breaking point either bennett r.t. london. protesters in israel are pulling down there

this function in every level of government needs to function on the political front live there in terms of the political process the negotiation with the palestinians no horse. in perceived and also in the in the economic consortium you see it gather them in there trying to tell people what is the all those what they can get in that's the best they can get in do nothing order to put improve the life of people and this is what brings people in the street into this do they're asking for something years. but you are going to live from moscow for more on the social protest involving is really can go to our t.v. dot com and also you'll find plenty of other stories and features of godfrey there here's a look at what out there right now america's ailing carmaker capital finds

at it is really the rising rate of emerging market countries and i think you're thinking of a world in which there would be a large number of relatively equal economic groups and you want to global system that can accommodate that if it can't be a global system which is run only by saying this is the center of power and everybody else must adjust. and if you watch the full interview in around ten minutes time here on our t.v. . now let's bring you some more news in brief from around the world barack obama has promised there will be no slowdown in getting funding to areas devastated by hurricane irene during his visit to new jersey one of the hardest hit states the u.s. president made it clear government aid is on its way however obama is likely to face opposition from republicans before securing extra funds for the recovery from the
