more welcome to you live from our headquarters here in central moscow and you're watching our team with me nice and now it's two pm here in the russian capital six am in new york where police in the u.s. have been filmed beating back protesters at a mass demonstration in the biggest event yet in the three week long rally called occupy wall street there are also reports of pepper sprays being used and police have confirmed they've made dozens of arrests the hourly thousands have been taking part in the state protests to demand social and economic change activists say they're fed up with breaking their backs at work all the wall street bankers bonuses keep flowing arches metaphor ny has more from new york. about ten thousand twenty thousand demonstrators were out on the street but from what we're being told

may have actually broke out when the crowds part of the crowd said here you lower manhattan piles wall street surged past the barricades around the new york stock exchange and officers moved in to contain the protesters trying what we saw on this video. officers swatted protesters with the times sprayed them with manus at first rate according to some reports even one local news reporter who is sprayed with pepper spray his however man was hit with a baton things clearly getting violent down wall street as this demonstration was carrying on all day long cops how the arrested dozens of protesters but the final tally is not yet known our team has checked in with the new york city police department and they don't have a final tally yet now let's remind our viewers this is not the first clash between

police officers and anti wall street protesters who saw last saturday nearly eight hundred of them were arrested in one day when i've been working hard in a peaceful protest against corporate influence on u.s. politics against what they call corporate greed wall street greed the week before we we also saw several anti wall street protesters that are part of this who called occupy wall street they were me student face by a police officer police officers had our initial netting to how to get to these protesters that they say are acting disobedient civil disobedience is the term the police have used here in new york but before these clashes took place we should inform everyone that this demonstration that took place in new york was on precedented it was the biggest warned us far ah but i occupy wall street now it's because it doesn't believe or unions joined occupy wall street we saw transport

workers we saw and nurses we saw teachers students from universities in new york city and the country all walked out of class at a certain time to join the movement. that is being held in high in new york by occupy wall street now this this movement we should remind our viewers is not just limited to new york it is caught on in cities throughout the country such as last in los angeles chicago gets just to name a few we know one is being planned in in in washington d.c. in the next few days now this is this is clearly gaining a normally small net income it's not just a group of activists these are now frustrated americans i mean together with grievances about the way the q.s. system is structured and it way the economy is in decline and not benefiting from

the common gay marriage. we're getting your thoughts on those protests in new york here's how votes are stacking up right now at our scene got calm but ask you what will be the biggest result of the wall street protests almost half so far believe it will be all noise and no action over a quarter think this will feel obama's fate as a one term president around a fifth of the voters think the anger will boil over and provoke clashes with the national guard while the wrestling will actually probably some time of reform i'll drop your voice now on our dot com home page. in syria at least six people are reported to have been killed in the latest clashes between protesters and security forces human rights groups continue to sound the alarm over multiple arrests and killings but one high profile victim has made an amazing reappearance bennett reports now on the media's quickfire reactions at the

expense fact checking. she was hailed as the flower of syria a symbol of the suffering under present pressure brutal regime at least that's what much of the western media said after the apparent butchering of zeinab al hosni we view pictures of what was done to corpses and they are simply too gruesome to air out several western media outlets were quick to report al gore's in these gruesome death apparently the first woman killed in government custody but now it appears she's miraculously back from the dead even being interviewed on syrian t.v. . i came to the police station to see the truth that's what i say to those line channels i'm now still alive not dead human rights groups like amnesty international jumped on the bandwagon to reporting help me was tortured murdered and mutilated even claimed term mother found the body in a morgue last month all assertions is now being forced to backtrack on this we will

endeavor to be more cautious and phrase things a little bit more nuanced the state broadcaster says the interviews to dispel what it labels fabrications by foreign media to serve western interests and stories like this that have been used to prop up calls from the us britain and france the un sanctions to be slapped on syria for their foundations are now looking shakier than ever as footage allegedly shows unarmed civilians being targeted by gun toting rebels so perhaps not the peaceful opposition they're often made out to be by the west that only seems to look one way this notion that the un has is now part of this pro demarco regime is ridiculous they are jumping on that bandwagon is an opportunity to. create this deceptive appearance while at the same time there's a dictatorships that are aligned with them and you know the nations and it's part of our russia and china vetoed a u.n.

resolution for syria seeing through it as a potential cover for another libyan intervention so it may not be any oil this time but there's always an ulterior motive that importance is as a geopolitical factor right next to israel a country which obviously america and britain and the other western powers strongly support so that would be the altar into a political motive for vetoes of followed by a security council walkout from america over remarks during the syrian envoy speech of the u.s. promised to be back with another resolution and undoubtedly more dramatic evidence that drive the point home either bennett r.t. london. the syrian president's political advisor has been speaking to our today and says syrians want talks not western interference. the decisions taken by the western countries are based not on real events in syria but rather on a task of suppressing syria as an arabic state the problem is that some steeds

front and armed terrorist groups operating in our towns and villages this may extraordinary people's lives very difficult and puts them in real danger if not to the syrian opposition to protest against foreign interference position should participate in dialogue for the goal of reform and building a new greater syria you shouldn't nurture itself. or turn against dialogue with the government. coming up ten minutes past the hour on the way for you one step closer to being part of the u.s. we track the palestinian bid for full recognition after world body i've just been given a nod to joy. but first greece's latest twenty four hour national strike turned violent with police firing tear gas on angry crowds of protesters the country all but ground to a halt as greeks made their feelings known about the extra cuts they face so the country can try and plug the massive three hundred fifty billion euro debt or two

sarah firth was in the capital as tempers flare. anger in athens square once again bearing witness kochi clashes between riot police here is greater. than the background here we go. back to larry in fact i'm in pensions really being i think as the police moved in to clear the crowds some shocking things one point the police in chasing protests as into the station many others hit and kicks by they supposed to be keeping control of the message being sent by the government is one of suppression and fear. scenes like this are very serious questions about the level of force being used the name. criers is a forty three year old journalist he's reported from many conflicts. but it was in his own country where he sustained his worst injury. i just remember thinking is

this really happening you could use it to shelter in an enclosure just awesome and one policeman who i think was the commander asked in a very rudely taken pictures i told him i was a journalist if you give an order and i had one of the flash burns these are some pictures i took. place he'd taken shelter amplify the sound of the flash bang causing always take. the injury which is cause. after the attack i won't call it an accident it was an attack like a small. investigation was launched into the incident the progress has been slow a family let's tells the countless cases both against heavy handed police tactics and to report any kind of results we witness for ourselves the lack of discrimination when the police lash out when journalists flung with his camera to the ground the rise in the level of aggression seen by the police and the more extreme groups of protesters is causing serious concern with the government

continuing to implement severe austerity measures in a bid to receive cash pensions looks set to keep escalating i think we are too fast. to explain the performance. of the first reaction to some of. them. describe the former. presidents. of the. the impact of the financial crisis is being played out played by blown syntagma square there are now fears that the financial crisis turned into an economic recession could bring the entire usa and not just the greek people to their knees. but greece's financial paralysis is being worsened by the admission it won't hit its larger targets economic analyst martin headachy thinks the only way for greece to survive is to default and start fresh. if it's

a fraud it may actually not be the seeing and not just agrees i would say if you did fall there may also not be the same because then they can start again very free they don't have to increase taxes of a few if they can devalue their currency is everyone has become more competitive again so. that may actually be potentially their best solution on the other hand if they bail out everything you would sacrifice in their currency stability or you will do what we think is the most likely cause or believe if they need us for example in germany are managing to sell their tools or it was a public. that they were most likely to prince and sacrifice currencies the ability in order to avoid this i'm controller to collapse agreed to reach would be quite difficult for politicians to tell people your money in the bank is gone. but they'll have the power keeping fit officially to report progress to pens a region where the governors exercise montra bring the population to stay healthy

by law. the palestinians have made another inroad into the un by moving a step closer to joining the heritage group you know asco they can now submit their bid for approval by the end of the month it would ban all our problems today and try and get their monuments listed as world heritage sites but it was given the green light despite fierce opposition from the u.s. it's a key diplomatic victory for the problems today in south the u.n. comes ahead of the vote over its full skate but palestinian leader mahmoud abbas applied to the security council for full u.n. membership in september it's now working its way through the process. well more world news for you in brief this hour the iconic co-founder steve jobs has died after an eight year battle with pancreatic cancer he let out will to become the world's biggest computer for and presided over an empire that revolutionized computing mobile phones and of course how we listen to music jobs he was fifty six

only step down from up a few weeks ago leaving the company with a bigger house pile than the us government built on the back of pioneering products from the i pod to the i phone. mass graves containing around nine hundred bodies have been discovered by authorities in the libyan capital they're believed to be the victims of crashes between former rebels and gadhafi loyalists in tripoli the new government fighters are now pushing towards the center of sirte the colonel's hometown and one of his last strongholds the conflict has taken over thirty thousand lives since it began in february. and russia says it's concerned over america's move to deployed four warships with ballistic missiles defenses off the spanish coast u.s. has also sealed deals with poland turkey and romania stationed ground based missile defense elements washington claims it's to counter threats from iran and north

korea russia feels it could neutralize its nuclear arsenal moscow has repeatedly asked for written nato guarantees but has received nothing so far. well time now it's taken more of russia close up and we're on a health kick today. we're in the pens a region on the east european plain of almost on its territory lies clouds the capital is also called panzer it was founded as a small fortress in the seventeenth century and has been growing ever since today the city is striving to be one of the healthiest safest in russia by order of the governor. went to find out why. almost every day the government is telling us that we should eat more fruit and vegetables drink less exercise more of course many people ignore these recommendations in fact working for the government will be very

frustrating always telling people to do stuff but having no way of enforcing you know what would happen if you could actually make people follow through and be more healthy well officials are no longer have to wonder because and that's exactly what the government has done getting healthier whether they like it or not every weekday morning attorney am the turmoil in state institutions across begins a familiar amounts and. cheerful voice recital by now familiar exercises of the governor's instructions and no one is allowed to slack off some go beyond what's required. so. this has returned me to my youth and my youth to me we love our governors initiatives. officials in this district have been told to leave the company car in the carriage and get on their bikes now all government business has been formed from the saddle

. the head of the local administrations as an issue that has not only improved health but brought officials closer to the people. i asked the governor can we have one more car to help us with our gc's he said you can have three two scooters and thereby sort a true officials can observe their people see who's up to what and who's leaving rubbish outside for example. some critics have said the government's compulsory initiatives reminiscent of those and soviet times violate people's rights but a sports mad former motorbike rider denies their accusations. of using human rights the only way i'm abusing human rights is by not giving people the opportunity to do even more physical exercise. as the clock strikes them. the police are out in force. looking for bad children the government has imposed

a curfew for unsupervised under sixteen. as you know i think it is a waste of police time those children were arrested and returned to their homes we haven't seen them out on the streets again and in this state there are no violators at all as the troll wraps up with white all round the pens they can sleep well. safe in the knowledge that would pass and they are healthier more country and its streets are increasingly free a feral i'm here with me he's been living here for fourteen yeah and you just heard about all these health measures and everything else that the governor is suggesting now with somebody with an outsider perspective what's what's your take on this can you take that seriously yeah absolutely i mean the governor's been very proactive a lot of investment going into new sports complexes sports programs figure with companies as well. so yeah it's been very active and this policy of hospitals being

built and diagnostic census you know there's been some real results could go. one of the things that the governor. did tell me is that the reason he's introducing this is to make the area more attractive for investment at a healthier workforce is a more attractive one i mean do you think that that's one of the criterion which evaluate your people do you ask them about their drinking habits their smoking habits and so on when you when you think people are absolutely i mean drinking is always a very serious thing and if anybody drinks at work or comes in drunk and i thought it made this place a strict rule from my perspective. on terms of you know activeness it's always good for the mind it's good and healthy so people with a good regime and an active regime is appears that produces better workers so they are more for pain he called him cheap talking about the government's health initiatives. well there is more of russia for you to discover if you had to our web
