warning the anti-corporate protests would not last until the winter and police have a hand in this three months on the occupy movement is still gaining momentum. this is already coming to you live from moscow i'm marina joshua welcome to the program now some groups in syria's opposition say they want an arab military intervention to quote protect civilians from government security forces they spoke after damascus signed an arab league protocol allowing observers to monetary regional peace initiative to and of months of bloodshed part of the opposition dismissed the deal as a stalling tactic syria has been increasingly isolated under sanctions from arab states the u.s. and the e.u. over its crackdown on the anti-government protesters have already saying they are

fighting extremist armed groups operating in the country artist sara for of has been to one of the flashpoints and the ongoing unrest. we're here in the embattled city of homs and you can hear heavy gunfire in the background it's really hard to the sheer insurances that the civilian population here lives here as we call the wait a month often months they've had to endure this conflicts the on going violence is taking its toll. there are neighborhoods that are being suffocated surrounded by armed groups there many people who have been kidnapped who had enough who did we do to deserve this holmes is being described as this if you live bring in civil rule where some of the series this is fighting has broken out. driving through the streets there are clear signs of conflicts bullet holes and when day pains and slogans on walls there's

a heavy military presence we went to visit some of the areas where concentrated fighting was continuing it would be empty dangerous to visit. those who know the areas of the city daily life struggles own movie it's in the backdrop of gunfire. you can see the children playing here in the homes this is the one of the major concerns is this conflict continues for the safety of the civilians here for their continued living here in. the situation in homes right now is far more complex than simply one of the opposition against the regime has deep seated sectarian conflicts have with their heads. from the very beginning home. because they're equal large numbers. much more than. a. military funeral held yesterday gets under way for five soldiers killed by what the government says is an increase in the militant movement and on the same day reports

from the opposition the harrowing accounts the civilian deaths around the country. make serious decision to allow the arab league to send observers to the more important this is naturally we want. to see. in the same time our sovereignty so really it depends on the intention. was the decision by the main opposition outside the country yes and see the course of. the opposition inside the country has welcomed in the north. we hope it is going to be implemented on the ground as it stated in the protocol and we remain completely against international intervention it would lead the country to destruction. with a fractious opposition and rising death toll with facts and information still very hard to verify even on the ground the observers

a rival here in syria will be an important step but it's going to be just one of many more that will need to fall away and seeing to ensure that no more lives are lost sara. the city of homs. they were a baseball article alice carmel was name but we knew the opposition's call for foreign intervention is not about protecting civilians but pursuing its own gains. their dream of a change in the regime and collapsing of the regime not met their allies and they think after nine months of that international coalition western and some goals country against syria syria was able to. prevail over all the obstacle that has been put by these countries i think there is a map that has been drawn for the middle east and they wanted some somehow for the regime of assad to topple and i think the way things are going it didn't please the

persian gulf and they didn't please what they call the opposition and that's why you see they don't want they want to still continue in the process of. causing instability inside syria today after an oil raid capsized off russia's far east coast the search for any survivors has become desperate dozens are still missing in the freezing waters while seven of the survivors found have now arrived back on land arches jacob greens has met them in the port of the coastal region nearest to where the tragedy occurred. it's a sense of relief to flee among those of course who been caught up in this both the survivors and also family members as well and the emergency crews who have been following this story from the very start by no means any jubilation or said abrasion and a lot of intel there's a lot of people stores are still with what's ongoing at least people who lost

probably work colleagues and friends almost all righ that capsized and sunk and therefore a lot of thought still being given towards them and their ongoing plights now dealing with the seven people who are still missing in this case and has to be said to the odds of finding any more survivors now any more people alive looking quite slim now if anyone is alive they would have spent their second night at sea in very harsh conditions search and rescue teams have already found over the table life boats i mean there's no more refuge really any want to stayed in overnight meaning most likely they were having to face the very harsh conditions a line of sea based sank whole rig sank very quickly indeed in twenty minutes time with it probably quite a lot of the evidence itself and not many survivors found either to give personal human testimonies of what occurred one theory though so far is that it's already

flooded with water being capsized very quickly within about twenty minutes and sank in people very little time to get out and that has been stationed already opened up here there is further inquiry colonel kay said has also been opened up and warmly angles that that's looking into it why exactly was taken to tow this already to port when there was such stormy and bad weather at the time. jake of greece reporting there was more on the maritime tragedy in the russian far east can be found on our website r.t. dot com one of the survivors who was airlifted to a hospital on saturday has told the media the horrifying story of the oil rig sinking and explained why so many people fail to board the lifeboats so log onto our web site r.t. dot com to find out more. north koreans are paying their last respects to their allayed so longstanding leader kim yong nail who died of

heart attack at the age of sixty nine on saturday his death was only announced on monday and has sent shock waves around the country and the whole region a stream of mourners including his son and successor kim yano and passed by open coffin the late leader will be buried in a week images from the world's most reclusive nation also show thousands of people uncontrollably meeting on the streets meanwhile north korea's neighbors are on high alert following the news of the death fearing it will spark instability in the region japan's government has called a special security meeting while south korea said its armed forces are combat ready but some experts believe peace on the korean peninsula is determined not by relations between north and south but by a standoff between china and america. the important thing here to understand is that for example the top of south korea being on military alert it's not south

korea that is on military alert it's the united states that is actually using south korea as a beachhead ever since the end of the korean war on the other hand we have to understand or should really be asking ourselves will the military the north korean military which are very powerful one million strong army four million reserved nuclear arms ballistic missiles will they really be subordinated to the new government or will they have a larger stance of these probably the key question is how will all of this unfold what will china china has a very special relationship with more korea it's sort of a love hate strict father versus problem child type of relationship that i cannot see however these things because north korea will undoubtedly not do that which china does not allow we have to always interpret north korea within the scope of the regional geopolitics of china so which is the key power in the region the

youngest son of the late north korean chief kim yano and has already been named as a great successor and the people have been told to unite behind him but as independent journalist tim sure told our team with secrecy surrounding the new rear it's hard to guess what his tenure will bring. he's only been around for three years in the public light he went to school in switzerland apparently he knows a lot about how the internet works and he knows a lot about social media but beyond that we know very little except he's been appointed a four star general and it did take kim jong il who just passed quite a few years to actually gain total acceptance with the power structure there with the powers that be there in the in the party in the government to actually you know take firm control so obviously he has no military training very very you know this year or next to zero military experience but i think what these two leaders this closely held leadership in north korea once is the symbol of their regime and this

is a clear you know successor symbol they can they can use to continue their power while about twenty minutes time we speak with the former head of the u.n. nuclear watchdog thinks and he felt from foreign powers will destroy the shaky peace in the region. i think it is important that the outside the world's. does not make them nervous and the threats from the outside bites that make them for a look at it in the north korean situation first of all we know that within the to rearrange frodo it's going to. so even without the you know it as the situation would be risky what. you told the world about it is there could be a risk also of encouraging. forces in japan. three months and it seems no one is backing out the occupy movement and the u.s.

is celebrating another anniversary as it continues to defy critics and gain momentum arches us here is a new york was more. these are the images of america over the last three months that cops are must beat themselves in the forehead because they've given such life to this movement not welcome by authorities a movement against wall street wealth inequality and government corruption exploded in new york and spread all across the us the nexus of all of our grievances was the profit motive the fact that. the corporate sector dominated by the financial sector has our ostensibly democratic politics gridlock and. occupy wall street has just marked its three month anniversary of what we see on

september seventeenth with this momentous moment of restoration in anger with the banks this time now i think that we've kind of injected the idea of economic inequality and see the public discourse how come i want to try to fix that it would not last long enough to deliver any significant message but three months into the biggest nationwide movement there was this years it's clear that the protesters are feeling stronger and more united than to be one critic said the protests would not survive until winter they have we can't fund education we can't fund health care but we could fund the police state and fund these wars until the cows come home at what point is it enough. when does the greed stop opponents said the demonstrations would never track tens of thousands they have to see a peaceful revolution or really what the media ridiculed them as a joke they did not have a party in their lives and is it trying to have burning right now. but kidding they were not. as many believe the uprising has transformed the face of america it's

totally changed the conversation in the united states on saturday the occupiers of new york facts right. samplers after being evicted from zuccotti park. attempted to occupy a new public space to use as their base. but confronted by police about fifty were arrested others kicked out were pretty resilient so i think you know in a short amount of time and you know. surely the. demonstrators plan to keep going until they see a revamp of the financial and political system in the us the financial elite is still mourning it over everyone the economy is in trouble foreclosures are continuing to grow all these real reasons for the protests and the movement will continue no matter the obstacles the goal of occupy wall street is to make history

we're growing and we're going to be the transformative moment for social and economic justice in america. r.t. . remember there's always plenty more stories on our website so a quick look at what's in store right now in airports reduced to ashes in siberia with a hundred emergency workers sent to deal with a disaster find out what caused the blaze at our team dot com. they have risen high alert as a floating hall of smuggled cigarettes is stopped from crossing the border after the furry costume officers fell the tree across the river. the e.u. has managed to raise a full amount of rescue loans needed to help its indebted members the failure to

advantages in terms of if you want locking your stove more firmly into the economic advantages as well in terms of investment the support for the euro is holding up very well people seem to be to see the advantages you may be politically rotten economically but the year award option party soon brought a painful hangover since september as tony has agreed to take part in the european financial stability facility the body created to combat financial crisis and bailout countries like greece and now experts say this membership comes at a price you can not afford to buy the formula for us is very bad because we need to . march. or percentage from our g.d.p. rich countries something more than nine percent from our budget the poorest country we need to pay off march richer countries the country central
