the international community be grossly condemns israel's approval of new plans to build another thousand settlers in east jerusalem. news for russia under around the world this is r.c. with me here nashbar look thanks for joining us and our top story tonight eight spiegel including an eleven year old girl were killed by a powerful bomb in russia's southern republic of dagestan six police officers have been severely injured and are now in hospital the explosive was planted in a car parks at a road crossing in the central district offices and it's in our heart the details. well it has officially been confirmed that eight people were killed in this blast seven of them civilians and eleven year old girl we're just hearing from law enforcers in the area that an entire family was killed in fact they were driving by

this park's car where in fact the explosives were planted and set off automatically and in their car was a husband his wife and their three daughters so that's the latest we're hearing six police officers were injured one of those victims who is dead is a police officer in fact and obviously a criminal investigation has been launched this housing had been classified as an act of terror what has been launched as a criminal investigation and the charges there an attempt on the life of a police officer and the even legal use of explosives the caucus is known for its volatility and terrorism is still a very major threat there in fact just last week we saw a double blast in the capital of dagestan called law and sixty one people were injured there are no deaths but it's certainly something that officials there in the whole country is still very much dealing with the threat of terror but this so far again i want to i just underline has not been confirmed or classified as to not just take us out of the entire region really and this is something that moscow very

much understands and in fact we're hearing just recently from the prosecutor general's office that they believe that more enforcers there and leaders are not doing in fish in enough job of dealing with terrorism in africa to provide situations that we've seen over the past year just recently. last week in the heart of the law and again this hasn't been classified as an act of terror but certainly that is going to be looked into and this is this is one of russia's i think it's fair to say top issues the issue of terrorism and terrorism that comes out of the caucuses and we've been seeing a lot of activity lately justin in dagestan itself. european specters are heading for greece to find out if austerity measures are being implemented as quickly as they could be seen that also look for more ways to cut budgets and raise taxes that's ahead of a crucial german word which could see a full force increase to the eurozone rescue fund it could also write off a part of greece's debt sarah ferguson athens forty. all eyes are going to be on

balance to see the outcome of that is very uncertain the moment exactly what's going to happen now he said the contributions from germany as well as of the usa members would increase were that to be a preview we know that there has been some problems especially amongst the german public is pretty extremely unpopular and we've seen the greek prime minister george happened on a visit just the other day met with the german chancellor merkel that was seen as a move to try to maybe garner a bit more support for greece and we had some very positive rhetoric coming from the both of them greece is part promising to deliver saying they think they can find their way out of the crisis it really is crucial that you as a need to still have made it clear whether or not they're going to be providing that next tranche of money the eight billion year ways is through that that certainly will go ahead because it's we've seen from some of the other statements that have come out recently very much the opinion and the thought is that greece is

to stay within the year within the euro zone where it's live we've heard that anyone could leave really and i could see the end of the entire union all together there's a lot of disappointment from the people here about the way the situation's played out i mentioned how the german public were feeling about having to the possibility of providing more contributions towards that bailout well here in greece to be honest the so the feelings very similar they don't particularly like the idea of the euro is a new leaders coming to the rescue what they see is news that is simply untenable for them because they want to ride out this crisis but the austerity measures that have been put in place them have been very very strict indeed property tax now the stated three last night by the parliament and we saw the situation here on some tightness to the square where the protesters clashed with riot police that escalated again at the very unhappy with this measure that property tax is going to add even more. to the tax bills that these people are having to pay and the public

has said that it's not even a case anymore of whether they want to pay they simply don't have that money the situation here really is a stream week we should point and moving forward now people are going to be looking to decisions like to morrow in berlin to see exactly where the eurozone leaders are going to lead the whether they're going to be taking decisive action that are going to help people out of the situation so moving forward all eyes will certainly be on berlin summer and the outcome of that. and as germany's parliament it weighs out the pros and cons of beefing up the european financial stability professor knockers kerber says the whole idea of bailing out failed economies is corrupt and destructive. eighty five percent of the population. additionally there is the against. and the european court of justice he faces

a challenge by a group that he has a. european central bank to chase. spain . today. to. the popular support it has always had a. divergence of competitive. debt. increase the competitiveness of the countries of the country you keep them in the same question they are monetary in prison. after having consumed. cheap money for more than ten years so give them the freedom to leave the they will not be able to catch up with countries.

in a few minutes here in our city as pundits dyna bids builds we'll hear from the palestinian u.n. envoy for his insight into the talks and timing surrounding his membership mission at the global body. pyar with phillip still un-bush we take a look at china's first space laboratory which is ready to be launched. that's next but now road blocks are still in place in the ethnic serbian north of kosovo as an aid to reinforce its presence on the contested kosovo border this came a day after at least eleven people were injured in clashes throughout the area violence flared again on tuesday are the alliance forces used to bulldozers to dismantle barricades put on by ethnic serbs they blocked key roads to prevent kosovo and police who are albanian from taking control of crossing posts and in

forcing a ban on cross border trade during the disputed rubber bullets and tear gas were used by alliance forces to disperse the crowd so that hospital officials say some of the injured were shot with live rounds around a thousand ethnic serbs gather in the northern part of kosovo on wednesday to protest against the actions of nato forces russia's foreign ministry has called on peacekeepers in the area to stay neutral with the russian envoy to nato demitra goes in saying the alliance taking sides can only lead to further conflict in the region. it. seems my new colleagues don't have a clue what the consequences of their involvement in the conflict could be instead of taking a neutral position in accordance with the un security council resolution they took the side of constable albania basically nato is blocking the only road of life between the cost of an serbs and serbia if the international peacekeepers who are involved in the civil conflict in the north of the region according to our sources there are badly wounded people among the consequence of those wounds are not from rubber bullets or from stones or from real bullets fired at these people need

refuses to answer the question it's another mistake that nato is making and provokes another conflict in the balkans. and balkan political acts that marker gas etch told r.t. that western countries have their only interest in supporting cos of authorities and keeping a military presence in every channel i do hope that the international criminal court will will have a look at list since the international criminal court claims to be very interested in the way civilians are treated i hope that they won't make an exception for western powers in the way they treat civilians they've decided who they want to sponsor they want to sponsor the greater albanian project through which they see their own interest they see camp bondsteel the biggest military base in the world having a permanent presence in the heart of europe strategically located completing that encirclement of russia which was always one of the serious aspects of their game plan that's what they're about they're about controlling the flow of oil controlling the security of energy supplies through this part of the region they're

about control nato is about control of territory and control of resources that's why they can stay on the side of those whose country it was not they will reward the organ steamers and the great albanian terrorists with a country because then the albanian maffia over them big time that's the nato plan . the u.n. security council has taken the first official step of considering the palestinian bid for statehood by forwarding dedication to the admissions committee that ministrations leader mahmoud abbas formally presented the submission to the un in new york last week israel and the united states are strongly opposed to the bid which america has vowed to veto aussie's marina porton eyes following developments for us in new york. the process takes no longer than thirty five days the standing committee will assess and review the application for a palestinian un membership and statehood the standing committee will hold its first meeting on friday the application the palestinian leader mahmoud abbas handed

in calls for recognition of palestinian state in the west bank gaza strip and east jerusalem as its capital so far there is about six security council members on the record that have thrown their support behind the palestinian bid a total of nine out of the fifteen countries need to support the application and there has to be no vetoes none of the veto wielding members of the security council should cast a veto as we know the united states a staunch ally of israel has vowed to veto palestinian bid for u.s. membership if it house to israel's very much opposed to this the us president barack obama said the only way that there can be independent palestinian state is if the palestinians and the israelis get back to the negotiation table and discuss the middle east peace plan that comes to fruition so at this point some critics say the palestinian campaign for

a year number ship is doomed to hell but the palestinians are very appreciative that security council is moving so quickly and at the very least this is bringing to it bringing attention to a problem that has lasted for decades and has not yet been solved there has been condemnation coming from the international community against israel's plan to expand its settlements russia has said it's deeply concerned that the plan and hopes that it would be revised the united states and european union also voiced criticism of this plan and some critics say that the settlement expansion is actually a violation of international law and if anything israel's actions can be seen as. provoking and already sensitive circumstance not helping to reach. ultimate peace agreement in any sort of way the prime minister of israel benjamin netanyahu says that israel has a right to build and the people in israel some say have you this settlement

expansion as a gift for the jewish new year the palestinian authority say that israel clearly with this move is not serious about peace whatsoever and we can imagine that a lot of diplomatic negotiations will continue taking place to make sure that maybe israel will will take its plan on expanding settlements because if those settlements do expand the palestinian president said there will be no kind of business as usual and no direct talks with the israelis and. palestinian envoy to the u.n. commented on israel's plans to expand settlements in east jerusalem saying they simply demonstrate that tel aviv isn't inclined to negotiate a peace. this illegal action by the government the occupying power or of responding to the international community and to the quartet which have been asking them. why they are obligations under international

law. which calls for the freeze of settlement the fact that announcing. these days this illegal. is an indication that they are not interested in what the court that is proposing or the international community or why didn't buy their obligation on international law and therefore they are not interested in negotiating fleece they say they want to negotiate peace without conditions they are imposing all these conditions and that action speaks louder. announcement of their desire to negotiate peace. it could support a compromise draft resolution on syria that would united russia and europe in positions of the conflicts this comes after hours of talks at the security council as to veto voting members russia and china rejected a more rigorous initial european plan europe's new proposal doesn't call for

immediate factions against the assad regime but the chance they could be implemented if the violence doesn't stop a strong critic of sanctions and says the plan and it was originally for it will be more than a strategy to pursue regime change in syria and does little to actually resolve the crisis russia's envoy to the u.n. how this at a compromise could be found if the rest of the security council was united in their commitments to end the violence while fighting in syria continues with the army supported by time and helicopters now look to the street battles in the key rebel city of rest stop. iran though face a military strike if it continues its nuclear development that's according to the french and avoid to the us giraffe a rod who warns that some countries could not accept it when having an atomic weapon in a forthright remark in front of a month they were countries that want to stop iran having a nuclear bomb and could make a preventive strike remember that archie is always interested in what she is saying so please voice your opinion and vote on what you think will happen next it all to

dot com. and for now almost a half of you say that there will be much saber rattling but not much else in iran around third of those who voted believe that israel will bomb the nuclear installations in the south in that time twelve percent say that nato will occupy the country and only twelve percent as well think that iran will join north korea as a totally isolated nation. it's china's turn to stake its claim on these stars as it launches the unmanned space lab or a tree which is called tiangong one of their state also known as heavenly palace it will test the at the water drains ambition to boost it extraterrestrial presence at space dot com tariq leaks as this is the beginning of china it's full scale space program. huge step for china's manned space program the ten on one module is their prototype for a full blown space station module it's a about the size of

a bus that weighs about nine times and what they're hoping with this m m a launch is that it's going to be the foundation for a a reusable destination in space for trying to after this flight goes up if it's successful they will send up another unmanned spacecraft to dock with it in november if that is successful that sets the stage for a manned flight to to the laboratory so it would be a toehold for china in space its space program has a big visible example of its progress as well it's a major prestige. for of the country and of course the you know it is trying to grow as it wants to be a technological a powerhouse and where else to demonstrate your your expertise what is one of the hardest things for people to do flying a humans into space. the major world news this hour for you in libya doesn't

out it will be in the u.k. and other western nations still very much involved in the new battle conflict one of britain's leading newspaper economists tell that's why some countries feel the need to pick and choose what they distribute humanitarian help. i'm joined by simon jenkins author and journalist who now writes for the guardian

newspaper simon thanks for speaking to r.t. now you've written extensively criticizing the way the intervention in libya has been handled what was wrong with it was it wrong to begin with of course during the process you're wrong with the way it was handled i just didn't have taken both in the first place. i do not believe that sovereign states have a legal right or an obligation or a duty to interfere in other sovereign states is written into the united nations charter this is not a country that threaten britain didn't threaten any of its neighbors and invaded in a neighbor it was going about his own business because you've got a revolution it was a. lucrative oil contracts that are now being fought over there are more important then the preventing loss of human life well i mean if we're going to go in wherever there's a possible loss of human life we're going to go invading countries all over the world all the time i'm assuming more than assume you go through. i know there are mixed motives in always interventions we tend to intervene in countries where we

think we might win is not a totally moral attitude we tend to really be interested in countries where we have some interest in this case or we tend to intervene where we think i think. almost quick glory to be had as was the case i think in iraq and clearly was the case here there are always mixed messages but i think we always need to examine our motives and also solve the simple question are we going to do good rather than harm in this case it seems we've done good. that was by no means guaranteed the fact of the matter was it was not our country and the mission creep was seeing he was it planted you think or is it just an inevitable unavoidable consequence of intervention i think it's a very difficult question mission creep. invariably when it happens in a great case was it was in both symbols now people say at the beginning we we won't let this happen we are only going into a humanitarian relief would have been might be in this case who knew going in to save the citizens of benghazi from what was claimed to be

a huge massacre that would have been a pretty unpleasant think there's no question about that. but at the back of everyone's mark the reason why the army was so reluctant is the knowledge that mission creep always happens you cannot control the situation on the ground you don't know what's going to happen you've got to be prepared for the worst because the worst is what usually happens now in this case it was looking a real mess and all the very end the very end we got special forces surrounding tripoli. didn't just get lucky even though they made fourth of using helicopters. using british weapons to bash through walls and everything in the end we did what we probably should go to the beginning which is make sure we not going to lose what about gadhafi david cameron since we washed his hands of that is she saying his fate is in the hands of the n t c is that shirking responsibility i am assuming that british and french forces are not trying to find gadhafi and certainly i mean i can't see the point of not finishing the job. you know we claim just two subs in

no fly zone was a joke. i just it just seems to me that if you're going to attack a country in this way you must finish it and then you and the country and the really difficult thing is to transfer power from yourself as the powerful authority to the local people and i think we're going to find it very difficult how different is this really from iraq afghanistan and previous interventions i mean they say they've learned their lessons have well and the only lesson i draw from any of these is don't do it they haven't learned that lesson the they're clearly going to start looking for another one i mean i imagine there's going to be some trouble in syria i don't know what they're going to do with them in iran is if you do not invade iran in this year out of your mind it's a huge country iraq is a pretty big country and we found that very difficult afghanistan at least a small but we're getting a bloody nose that. i mean i guess the lesson of libya is it's a really small country might get away with it. applauding themselves this is the model of a successful intervention why is this not happening in syria and yemen and places i

think the reason is that they thought it would be a good idea and it worked. it was easy to do you could run it from a few areas and bases in the mediterranean so it was a doable enterprise you could put in special forces quite easily got too many people noticing. i just think it was it came along at the time i was couldn't realise why they didn't do burma when the famine was on not a very good example of where you could have intervened and you had you had total forces available didn't have the nerve to do it and that occasion. i mean i think these things are completely random now it's difficult to see how you orchestrate a foreign policy based upon these random interventions as for nature and what is it to do with nature and nature is the north atlantic alliance against the russians it's i repeat it's like a mercenary force roaming the world looking for things to do completely stuck in afghanistan. on it may yet get stuck in libya can intervention work that the

principle works if it works. you topple saddam hussein. punish the taliban and topple gadhafi works how should how suddenly you think i just a little look we've left syria or we've. we've left. why libya what does this mean now for the arab spring does this intervention reinforce it or undermine it i did it means for what is the arab spring i mean the arab spring was was was a number of rebellions most of which were suppressed. to now three of which would go away we don't know what's going to mean egypt yet we don't know what spring means. it could well be that morocco and bahrain a better off through not having toppled by governments but having for the government to reform than the one to do topple the government i just don't know all i knows is not my responsibility there is no british empire anymore you know we are not charged by the electorate or by the world to go around invading other people's

countries we don't like their regimes it's just not our job simon jenkins thank you . we will. bring you the latest in science and technology from around the world. we've gone to the future covered. twenty years ago the largest country. to certain places of.

what. you're trying to look. where did it take them. in indonesia jeez available in the ground sure. the ritz carlton hotel hotel the millennium hotel in chile you can see. grand hotel macau the initial marco resort hotel to do so. would result from a cold. potomac or riviera hotel mckown cintra hotel mckown. are
