money no chance for the future these messages have been brought by teachers striking in portugal they can never have stability. in the school. even if they are working for ten fifteen twenty years they are always earning the same and don't have a place and school a stable place in one school it's a political choice of financial cuts in education health and social security that's a political choice and we think it's it's wrong. but that's in the area closest particles used to be sliding deeper and deeper into the depths of economic out of the thirty dollars is a purely financial crisis is now turning into malevolent force which threatens to rock the portuguese their basic human rights earlier this year portugal got an emergency bailout from the e.u. to deal with its genscher in debt the third country to do so after greece and ireland but for some the seventy eight billion euro price tag is too high to pay

for the hysteria to cards it goes well beyond the classroom and strikes at some of portuguese societies fundamental principles like access to justice. the government isn't paying lawyers to provide free public legal services so there are some who have been doing it for years for free courts cannot be reduced to canonical entities to solve problems of large corporations they must play the role of providing legal services to citizens and promoting social peace. and this is cutting corners in education and the legal system is not enough the government spitters are hitting the portuguese where it hurts the most in their health care the government you know what is your capacity to we say forty. thousand. barrier the girl he now has to made out there will be a lot. more because. of the same time we pick up.

channel syrian president bashar al assad warned that any foreign intervention may or could engulf the whole region. well thought that syria is not libya it's unique in terms of geography politics and history outside interference could come at a great cost to all involved if your small state and your opponent is big and powerful it's natural for you to want to defend your homeland it's a country where you could say to turn it plate current exists and any attempt to break the stability could cause a strong earthquake it could damage the whole region and countries situated far from syria and if that happens in the middle east you could have a global impact today we have hundreds of soldiers police and security forces among the dead how they killed during peaceful demonstrations were because of some slogans being shouted out no they were shot and this means we're dealing with armed people at the information obtained during the latest interrogation of terrorists shows that there was armed smuggling to syria from neighboring states their

campaign was funded from abroad and we have a list of those who are responsible for this. hearing russian billionaires. boris berezovsky are taking their battle to a u.k. court he claims are robbed him of billions of dollars being the chelsea football club owner denies he's expected to speak at a high court hearing one day artie's i have a better reports on what could be the most expensive lawsuit in history. this will be the first time or remove it mr a is the body guards are calling him opens his mouth in this hearing up until now it's good to resolute silence in stark contrast to his rival mr b. . whose appearance is in the witness box of being loud brash and passionate after all there's a lot at stake here he's suing they say the three point five billion pounds a breach of trust and breach of contract he says mr a intimidated him to lead him into selling his shares in sydney the oil company for a fraction of their true value the hearings trying to establish the finer details

of those deals that went on but it appears none of that was actually put into writing after all. it was the ninety's russia it's not so much what's inside the court it's caught the attention here is the extravagant apparatus around these two men they show up because in so many my barks the c.d.'s that flanked by passed onto rogers at least fifteen people each inside the courtroom which is massive it's divided into two warring factions each man is represented by three rows of lawyers legal aides translators bodyguards each behind a computer screen outside the court room a free corner is a big burly man with dark glasses an ear piece these are two of the world's most richest men although the rumor is that he's ports is dwindling but to give you an idea of just how much money these men have for mr hayes legal fees are thought to be the in the region of between four and eight million pounds. israeli airstrikes

on gaza have left at least ten palestinians dead and action in response to a rocket attack on the jewish state that left one dead it's the worst outbreak of violence in months following a prisoner swap deal between israel and hamas argues possibly or as more from tel aviv. and one of the concerns people have is that among the hundreds of palestinian prisoners who are still in israeli jails and who still need to be released as part of that prisoner exchange deal that saw one israeli soldier return to israel in exchange for more than a thousand palestinian prisoners many of the palestinian prisoners who still need to be released belong to the democratic front for the liberation of palestine and that is one of the palestinian groups that has claimed responsibility for a number of these rockets that have been fired into israel in recent days so there are many people here saying that this does jeopardize that prisoner exchange deal and that it will be almost a convenient excuse for the israelis to release the hundreds of palestinian

prisoners that it is still committed to release as part of that deal there were more than twenty thousand people that took to the streets of tel aviv they were not surprised by the violence they see that this is something that has happened in the past and it is the government's way of detracting attention away from domestic problems insert the if you look at the international media coverage the international media was much more focus from what was happening in terms of security concerns and on israel's border with gaza and then on what is happening domestically here and this is exactly what protesters say they say that they want money to not be screened so much on the hour on the defense budget for cuts there to be made so that more money can be staved domestically and certainly this increase in violence and the government's response in terms of the fact that it is going to give gaza a harsh had it tracks attention away from what people here say is the ongoing situation where they have very real demands that are more often than not overshadowed by the excuse of security concerns. paula.

reporting there from tel aviv and staying with that story there is a court that sentenced a former israeli soldier to four and a half years in jail for leaking classified military documents to the press some of the files detail military officials are proving the assassination of palestinians in the west bank those claims are being investigated legal experts sorry about she says it undermines israeli wall in this case a whistleblower blew a loud and disturbing whistle the military is violating international law and the directives of the israeli supreme court in carrying out assassinations in situations in which they are required to try to make an arrest and so the state attorney's office prosecuted the soldier but failed to seriously investigate the conduct revealed in those documents conduct with raises serious questions about rule of law in a democratic system that pattern of behavior of violating it orders by the supreme court because of the supreme court said that if they take you must try to arrest is part of a pattern of practice within the israeli system and it's something that's very

disturbing because when the army does not obey the orders by the supreme court the supreme court is actually more reluctant to issue those orders because no court wants to issue orders that are going to be ignored and then of course you have a serious threat to the rule of law because in a democratic system the army is of course supposed to listen to what usual system tells and tells it to do. it looking for in-depth stories and analysis r.t. has you covered here's a taste of what's online right now what are. the radioactive emissions from fukushima has crippled nuclear plant maybe five times greater than authorities claimed find out online right evacuation zone could stay uninhabited for years to. weeks after the failure of its predecessor the russian progress space ship successfully take software to. check out the footage or he dot com or you tube. the front runner for kyrgyzstan's presidential election looks set to take the country's top job with almost all the ballots counted he's leading the polls with

tried in afghanistan well there is nothing wrong with this idea of this light footprint the only question is why did it take more than chain years however the most striking feature about this brand new old plan afghanistan is the fact that both authors have painstakingly failed to mention even once the most successful part of american operation in latin america that is aerial eradication of the drug fields that could and should have been replicated all mass in afghanistan. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe after months of heavy floods nearly a third of thailand remains waterlogged bangkok's commercial sector is largely escaped the flooding role some large parts of the thai capital though still under waist deep water red cross and other relief organizations warn of secondary risks of flooding presents including widespread disease residents at risk wading through

hundred billion rubles prepared for these flights would cost about thirty or thirty times more than the. in other words we're talking about colossal expenses regardless of what price those who have been into space say the time is right among kind to yet again boldly go where no one has gone before everybody realizes that it's time to reach out and explore the universe beyond low earth orbit we have for many years just for ten years at least we have been on the international space station in very close and we have been somewhere else or with people since the lunar landings which ended back in one nine hundred seventy two there's no shortage of take years to be the first to set foot on mars and potential red planet trailblazers have started their training young surrogate still just a teenager but he's putting in the hard yards in the hope that he can help create
