freeboard video for your media project a free video god our t.v. dot com. the latest news in week's top stories here on our team syria denies government troops carried out the massacre in the town of houla as the death toll rises to one hundred eight including forty nine children russia points to evidence are showing many of the dead were hacked to death rather than having been killed in army shelling. and fears rise of more unrest in the region as religious factions in lebanon become increasingly divided over the syrian conflict. thousands of canadians marched through montréal this week defying a law designed to curb students anti jewish and fee rallies which have often ended in violence and best arrests.
10:01 pm
it's six o'clock here in moscow you're watching our tease of the weekly with me to bang let's take a look at the stories first the u.n. security council has been holding an emergency closed door session to discuss the massacre in syrian town of houla a report delivered by the head of the observer mission to the country says at least one hundred eight people were killed in the attack on friday according to some diplomats and also pointed the finger of blame at the syrian government damascus strongly denies being behind the attack us saying there is no evidence to confirm its troops involvement it blames anti regime gunmen for the massacre but there's no way to independently verify any of the claims the syrian rebels meanwhile say the u.n. peace plan is dead and are calling on foreign partners are to launch air strikes against president assad moscow says' and most of those who died in houla where executed with handheld weapons a close range of. that has been funny events at the u.n.
10:02 pm
for us united nations security council members cut their weekend short to hold a three hour closed door emergency meeting on the way to developments in syria where on friday in the bloodiest massacre since the anti-government clashes started on the ground a year ago took place where over one hundred people were killed including dozens of women and children prior to the me to great and france were calling for security council members to adopt a joint press statement pointing the fingers out the syrian government russia however who previously vetoed a regime change resolution on syria said it would prefer to wait to hear what the head of the un observer mission in syria had to say and this is why the meeting was adjourned now after the meeting a joint press statement obviated nations security council members was released the security council has condemned these violence weiland killings which included artillery and tank shellings the security council says this is
10:03 pm
a breach of international law and greet each of syria's commitments under united nations security council resolutions but what's important here is that the council also can condemned close range killings including knives being used to slaughter people and the key here is that it's not clear as of yet who was behind these close range killings and russia says that the majority of the deaths took place at close range so it's important to discover who exactly stood behind that we do know of course that the syrian government has been denying any involvement in this massacre saying it had nothing to do with it we have heard from the deputy russian foreign minister say earlier that a clear and careful investigation into this massacre has to take place and the united nations observer mission is currently conducting such an investigation. parties us are for earth recently returned from syria and now explains what she
10:04 pm
witnessed firsthand in the conflicts development. there is no way to say it simply doesn't exist this crisis now is just becoming increasingly militarized and having this devastatingly high death toll and so we actually spoke to the deputy foreign minister in syria he's in moscow just the other day i asked him where the final responsibility lies what's happening in the country. is not. the syrian people. who do not want to see. military and security. particularly those who are calling. every now and then for arming the. smuggling go. from neighboring countries you see the rhetoric right from the beginning of the u.n. monitors being there has been now before the plans even reach this three month deadline
10:05 pm
that it's a failure well ok but it's one thing to use a terminology what is what's the alternative you know constantly giving these problems without any other solution is only going to lead to further violence and you seeing some of the western countries again continuing right through this peace plan calling for the arming of the opposition we know the arms of traveling into the country all of this is undermining massively the u.n. attends to implement a cease fire which is so important that you know that they're able to continue that work and get that done and i think it's very important. you know politics aside the human cost of this conflict is devastating and if the u.n. mission is going to get even higher. than it is already. the security council guaranteeing civilian protection that is not going to even attempt to abide by this cease fire to. for the second week running lebanon has seen an increase of street violence over the fate of its neighbor syria trouble erupted between sunni
10:06 pm
opponents of president assad's regime and its supporters artie's marie a few national spoke to locals who fear their religious clashes could grow into another bloody conflict in the region. an overnight of street protests in beirut. it was sparked when thirteen lebanese pilgrims were kidnapped in syria apparently by groups linked to the syrian rebels the lebanese capital witnessed what it hadn't seen in years just who i am right about here but are moving to a real war between sunni and shia muslims and this is at least what i see in the last day. the reason the spillover from the chaos in neighboring syria shia muslims here generally support syria's president assad while most sunni's favor the rebels likewise lebanon's ruling calling led by the powerful share hezbollah is process while the opposition backs the uprising the situation is getting worse obviously in the region and this is having
10:07 pm
a spillover effect here in lebanon and where we're having to cope with the consequences of that there's also internal tension that's increasing there's a large flow of refugees and there's a lot of instability all around us. some though believe the problems in lebanon and told me down to the crisis in syria local observers like spanish john is thomas alcove editor says they are a symptom of a deep divide that's long bubbled under the surface but it's not he does there were many unresolved issues after the nine hundred seventy five nine hundred ninety seven war like religious division and the authorities didn't sort it out and now they're discovering it again they kept this situation of instability for many years and that's a good ground for a new conflict like a spark in a powder keg get out and the bad news is the resplendent of power during the cag the recent history of warfare hand makes sure that and means the political and religious refits i remain more dangerous dollar more liberal no there are so many
10:08 pm
factions now sunni shia. what's really bad everybody has weapons not only has belarus they may think but everybody in every house and they use them about a shia. sunni neighborhoods exist side by side in central beirut and in recent years it's been a stable peaceful arrangement but the syria effect means fear has now grip them feel over it turn into a deadly bloody past which residents here desperately hope to avoid but they are doing it is nothing that has nothing to do way of politics or what's happening in the region at the moment my sisters but then you said early against violence in lebanon this summer the fever her people have to leave for the world to feel if it was still happening and how mud is seventy he remembers all the major conflicts more than lebanon has gone through and has a chilling forecast about the latest trouble surely you know what i see no reminds me of the nineteen eighty two in two thousand and six israeli wars and the one
10:09 pm
hundred seventy five civil war and the two thousand and eight political uprising here i didn't think i'd witnessed yet another conflict in my life. but it seems a worse case scenario could be gettin more and more likely this neighborhood in beirut where the violence started is known as the ticklish d.-d. meaning new roads many fear this road may lead the country to civil war. marry for nationality beirut lebanon. coming up later this hour a trigger for tension traces of highly enriched uranium i discovered at a nuclear facility in iran sparking more claims that two runs off the atomic program has military motives the latest is just a hades. and quits all keep cutting greeks prepared to have this say at the polls in the upcoming elections but the euro zone it seems is already preparing poets for stuff there well. in canada and new emergency law aiming to curb
10:10 pm
a student's protest against jewish and fees has backfired thousands in montreal filled the streets every day this week in defiance of the measure despite a police crackdown authorities now say they are planning to return to the negotiating table on monday. she can was at the latest demonstration. it's hard to gauge exactly how many people there are on the streets of montreal but those are thousands of people killed are people banging on their pots and pans expressing anger over what they see as her crony and measures undertaken by the government to suppress people's right to freedom of assembly and freedom of expression the government of a good because adopted a new law just last week which makes it illegal to assemble without authorities permission and requires the precise roadmap of any more chore demonstration planned . you could they came up with the rate this response to that requirement and as you
10:11 pm
can see that is the map of montreal such offensive response is also provoked by the police action against the protesters last week a day after the law was passed they rounded up and arrested over seven hundred people in just one day it was by all accounts that we've heard of very peaceful protests but it was huge according to various reports the number of people marching on the streets of montréal reached out quarter of a million at some point even many of those who didn't care about to wish. and hikes and complained about traffic even though they joined the ranks of protesters you see people from all age groups out there forty year old older people all kinds of people almost everyone who witnessed these massive protests say the canadian media are downplaying the widespread is that in the police brutality because they say the media are controlled by the government and by those who support the government. ok . you could see how the movement has evolved over the last three months or so
10:12 pm
it actually in february when it started those are just the students of head back versus the government back and those were generally very peaceful gatherings but the police feedback has been overwhelmingly oppressive and if that wasn't did not the government passed this antipolo test a lot which is then ok turning out the protest actually then the flames of the movement make you get so much bigger than just the student uprising. they marginson know that it was supposed to quell the student unrest has also provoked widespread opposition in come back whining the scope of their rallies to defending the one to assemble canadian journalist i'm michel boyer who is covering the nikkei demonstrations says the government to have to abandon its hardline stance bill was seventy eight which is without its faults and its goal is to call everything down
10:13 pm
it was established by the provincial government. in canada we have a we have a charter and one of the articles in the charter is the right to protest peacefully and people and protesters now are saying is that certain provisions of this new law are and cringing on the freedom to protest peacefully so people are in fact even to retaliate even stronger we really don't know what's going to happen really until the until the government since down with the student organization since down to talk. in egypt preliminary election results suggest that a muslim brotherhood candidate and a pre-revolution prime minister will be tied in a neck and neck race for the country's top job however the first election after the ousting of whose name mubarak last year has been marred by his ations of voter fraud and lack of transparency egyptians are now faced with a choice between an islamist and a member of the former regime and as artie's policy or reports many there fear an uncertain future. it's
10:14 pm
a result that stunned many and has the potential to split the country into an islamist candidate pitted against a member of the former regime mohamed morsi is the choice of the powerful muslim brotherhood well as much afic was the last prime minister to serve under hosni mubarak egyptians and now have to choose one or the other for the country's top job and no one is happy. because he has become the. candidate of the revolution. of the remnants of the regime and prevent the country from moving backwards but the muslim brotherhood is tainted by the same accusation and critics fear the group will stay egypt away from democracy into hardline islamic rule already the brotherhood controls more than half the seats in the new egyptian parliament and they repealed among poor communities gives them the edge which is why those who took to tell his square last year are worried i'm sure of the martyrs where life they would think that this is all it is just no one chances
10:15 pm
for elections they wanted to free them now years in the monthly massacre that takes place will even kill those who don't even have the right to be listened in the big square how can the release of the east and the last but of which are fixed wrong showing also threatens to undo everything mariam and her friends fought for shafiq is deeply hated by many egyptians and was pelted with stones and shoes when he went to vote but for that the taxpayer revolutionaries would able to field a single compelling candidate in the country's first post mubarak presidential elections. change quickly. but many egyptians expected their mommies to be replaced by moderates like i'm almost certain the sick list of vice a former member of mubarak's regime and abdul morning. and look what former
10:16 pm
brotherhood members are adding to their woes egyptians also fear the military that's been ruling the country for the past fifteen months won't stick to its promise to hand over power and instead will continue to pull the strings even from a far less an area that dr hassan a far believes would have unthinkable consequences i mean it's very cool has to be excluded and then they thought it would be very very frightening and they're going to be a little bloodshed and i think that to me is very much aware of that it's very likely egyptians will vote in any islamist president marking one of the most dramatic political turnarounds in history after all it wasn't that long ago that the muslim brotherhood was outlawed and it's members imprisoned now it's mubarak in the dock and the brotherhood almost in the presidency but there's been nothing about this election that's been predictable and until a new constitution is approved it's still not clear what powers the new president will have but whoever wins his hands will be full of problems here run deep and
10:17 pm

10:19 pm
looking for a complete cessation of enrichment they're looking for a reversal of the process that has gone on for more than a decade now i just don't see how this is going to happen fortunately there's plenty of oil in the world markets and those nations that need to find alternative sources of oil are likely to be able to do so and those nations that have become accustomed to working with the iranian central bank will find other ways to do business with iran if that's what they need to do. tell us what you possibly think of the is the deal between iran and the west and the voted out dot com look like this almost half of you think it doesn't matter if the talks succeed as it won't prevent a strike against iran over a third believe a deal is not possible because iran's concessions will never satisfy the west fourteen percent say they'll be no progress but because iran will never agree to the west demands and just nine percent. optimistic saying the five plus one talks
