night in our top story on to gadhafi forces in libya say they've begun the battle for bani walid one of the last remaining strongholds loyal to the ousted leader six people three from each side have been killed in fighting so far with others wounded colonel gadhafi himself earlier released an ordeal message claiming he hasn't fled and he will never flee his homeland that despite reports his supporters of crossed the border into neighboring. the country's capital tripoli meantime fell into rebels last month but there's still little sign of life improving there and that is maria for national reports next celebration for most happy to see the old regime go been replaced by fear again on the streets. a city celebrates for more than ten days believe in capital has been rejoining in the dictator's fault. only he wanted to bring his quarter here in the central square for the second anniversary to report our flag instead we were so happy without him

. it seems in the last two weeks rebel fighters have fired bullets in the air they were shot to or in this small town tripoli earlier albums. already be a fino very very well with. this third gadhafi. duffy's victor thought. he told me or debbie would love me all the people long we know you will see love here he was rather pleased i was there we don't really get that big and we're done all right when they are care but away from jubilant crowds we meet those who are not so pleased up a lot of money lives in tripoli is obviously district historically pro khadafi when the rebels arrived his sister was badly injured she's still in hospital in tunisia . other one doesn't want to show his face on camera and in ceased when i had no location for the interview he says revolution has brought much fear in its wake.

there is no peace there is no safety in the city we don't want our children and when it's dark we are afraid and we always wait for something bad when gadhafi was here at least we didn't have to sleep a wink what we do know. up the rahman says he's also wanted change and a brighter future for his country but not face way. people are dying on both sides of the cities destroyed no one cares do they seriously think that they changed it for the better don't want you so just look around is that what you wanted and what is around is a scene of widespread destruction and social chaos the badly damaged buildings matched by the rise in stink of garbage and decomposing bodies youngsters roam the streets barely old enough to understand that what they carry are weapons not toys many shops schools and hospitals are closed while the city's symmetries are growing

bigger and bigger. shortly after tripoli fell into rebel hands the national transitional council libya's new authority claimed it was moving here from benghazi but weeks have passed and there is still no sign of its presence on the ground zero of order being restored the city is functioning by south and treading a fine line between freedom and allocate. rich notional. tripoli libya. ahead or a pig's nari of libya was not unfold in syria or moscow refuses to take sides over damascus so peaceful bloodshed is not beyond calling are both the rebels and the regime for the. funerals been held in london for the man whose death triggered a wave of violent riots across the u.k. father of four mark duggan was shot dead during

a police operation back in august at his laura reports. it is in mourning today as the funeral. takes place and you will remember. this area who was allegedly shot by police marksmen at the beginning of august that. riots which here in the area spread to other parts of london and then eventually to the rest of the country leading to a large amount of civil unrest which the government and police are still reeling from the funerals being attended by round about a thousand people too many to fit inside the church and interestingly the police presence here today is incredibly. there are hardly any police here that all dressed in their normal uniforms. no aggressive policing whatsoever. community that has a deep mistrust of police which has any been intensified by the shooting of mark

duggan there is an inquiry underway into what happened to cause his death but there have been no results. and the funeral is an important turning point people are still asking what actually happened people in this community also asking where is the mini cab driver who was supposed to have been driving at mr duggan at the time when he was shot he hasn't appeared in the public. people here are not sure whether he's being questioned by police there is quite a tense atmosphere here people are worried about the effect of the police on that community that also welcoming to the media we were given a little bit of a hard time when we went to the estate where mr duncan and his family lived. very very respectful affair and that's how the community here want to keep it but they still have questions that need answering about what happened to mr duncan why was he shot by police marksman what were the events that led up to his death and those are questions which have nuances. it was

the world that even a. few. people are moved the repercussions of nine eleven are still being felt today in the form of the now maligned war on terror and yet is adam plats reports for r.t. next it seems for the majority of the people have felt the full force of the world's fury in the aftermath of the attacks nine eleven is just another day. helmand in southern afghanistan is the province that is borne the brunt of the fighting between the taliban and coalition forces. afghans in this war torn province think about nine eleven and its consequences. while on patrol with the marines i get a first opportunity to ask a couple of young afghan men what they know about nine eleven but those who were able to look forward to school here. never heard of. and can us they know where it is we don't know if that's because because we were former we never heard about anything else about the world more so coming. to young

men and clearly never heard of nine eleven. but maybe the elders of the local sure would have more to say you know you see. this ng i just can see the smoke from the buildings and that's a good as anything i can say when you guys show this picture you guys hang it so i think i was a cop what if i just got here i would be surprised but having been here now for six months this is from a stone ages where we are. told what to do about their reactions. to the guy who said it was kabul was never going to kabul she just shows you how isolated there are even in their own country you don't want to. do you know you don't think you know you think that america afghanistan come to this point and they get the airplane from here to attack in the united states you know how much. thought it was nice to go from iraq to then here is a lot easier to understand you know why you're here and really at that picture you

go through picture minder so this is what you see actually looking at it in this article where you form a car in the right. back. and saying we're going to help you decide one funding and it is stress how many funding and this is going to help you where is the head. down with this is going to give it to our kids. and fighting and they do it to their own kids. but i don't and. i do sympathize or understand what some are saying is even just from the weather we've had recently people losing their homes and nobody to help them so you know when you when you can feed yourself those early hours yourself are you to care about somebody you have six thousand miles away. so i can understand that this is what i tell you that i never thought to look at source questions of. anybody here that's why we're here amazingly in a country where for ten years all has been fought with nine eleven as its root cause and justification it turns out not only were the villages oblivious to nine

eleven but so were the afghan police and even some of the translators working with the u.s. military you go this far you know i. have yet to see. a survey taken in twenty ten by the international council on security and development found that ninety two percent of afghan men in helmand and other afghan provinces had no idea what nine eleven was with american troops that start with during this year it seems likely that they will leave afghanistan without the vast majority of afghans ever having really understood why they came in the first place from afghanistan for no russia will send a fact finding mission to syria to get firsthand information about the situation there the decision was announced by the country's presidential envoy to africa. following his meeting with a delegation of syrian opposition leaders. they blame president bashar al assad for the political deadlock in syria right now saying of making the same fatal mistakes as libya's. moscow ever promises to do our best to avert

a libyan scenario in syria telling both sides of the complex it is time to move from the battlefield to the negotiating table and made the opposition brief clear in his latest. the resolutions we would approve to send a strong message to the syrian regime should in fact be addressed to both sides things are just blood. and white and the anti-government protesters in syria are not followers of some refined european models of democracy some of them are to put it straight extremists and some might even be called terrorists the situation is not that simple and we have to take into account the balance of different forces and interests russia may support certain moves but only if they don't boil down to the one sided condemnation of the government and president assert we should send a strong message calling on all the conflicting parties to come to the negotiating table start talks and stop the bloodshed. to present a very busy interview full on our website r.t.

decisions regarding the independent media but also decisions regarding how they deal with the stations and with the strikes of the people and the way also that the security forces the spectators of a football match two days ago which also have fueled a lot of rage in the three shows that the security is also treating us and the same as they did before before the revolution so there hasn't been any real change. the world's ice hockey community remains in mourning tonight with the loss of almost the entire lokomotiv team after the plane crashed on wednesday forty three people died when the forty two crashed on takeoff near the russian city of jaroslava people also gathered in prior to remember three czech nationals who were among the many top players killed hundreds have been laying flowers and chanting the names of the former world champions in their memory candles were also little
