u.n. observers in syria suspend the exhibit is over the threat of mounting violence almost denies the pentagon claims are that a russian military ship is carrying weapons and troops to the conflict one country . the final round of egypt's a presidential election underway but many are left disenchanted by the choice before them with very constitution and they dissolve parliament. and thousands of italians a march against the cuts in rome but the euro's future hangs in the balance and with greece as that point he heard that will decide the future of the single currency.

it's nine pm here in moscow you're watching r.t. live the u.n. observer mission in syria is suspending its activities because of escalating violence in the country this as the u.s. says it's tracking a russian military cargo ship as it makes its way to syria with weapons and troops reportedly on board moscow's deny the claims of us said several ships already if needed to protect its syrian base parties maria has the latest from damascus. we are hearing from the chief supervision mission here in syria that the more interests have suspended all the activities in the country and the main reason for that is an increased violence we've been witnessing in the last few days that posed a significant risk for around three hundred monitors here in the country and has actually been impeded in their ability to fulfill their amended here in syria indeed we've been seeing dramatic escalation last few days with increased

number of rebel attacks on syrian army checkpoints and at the same time we've been seeing that syrian government has given too much freedom to syrian army to deal with that u.n. observer is they were sent to syria in mid april to monitor the implementation of coffee and six point peace plan here in syria the cordon to this plan ceasefire was supposed to take force on april the twelve but instead we've been seeing and chris number of attacks from both sides international officials and u.n. officials confirming that cease fire hasn't been implemented and both sides have been equally responsible for that well what we are seeing now here in theory is kind of deadlock because as a u.n. mission general has trust there is no other plan on the table but these six point annan plan is not been implemented meanwhile we see that most. sees no to answer to that and is pushing both sides to try to to implement this plan

and. most is resisting military intervention in syria while the calls for that get louder and louder we are hearing reports from u.s. military officials that it has completed its own planning for how american troops would conduct operations against the syrian government just days after. the u.s. state department was to back away after hillary clinton's controversial remarks alleging that attack helicopters were on their way from russia to syria we're hearing new comments from u.s. military officials this time reporters an american news outlets saying that most has sent a small contingent of troops to syria the pentagon says its trek in and russian military cargo ships and it is now making its way to syria through a russian naval base there in the city of tire to see we're really hearing from military diplomatic sources in morse code that indeed one of the large landing

ships of the black sea fleet is on standby there and is ready to be sent to syria if needed just to protect russian citizens in this poor. but it denies that it is right now making its way to the port of tartus with the violence raging on in syria many in the international community were quick to put the blame for alleged massacre so early on assad forces. from a christian ministry in syria she says armed rebels are playing games with the u.n. monitors. we weren't the first in the world to wear a phone to the scene or to tell the internet of war would end the people they have seen the militia and varying out of from the national hospital in time though corpses arms or blankets of the ministry of health screening them to assemble them

in was the second day we have seen the un observers coming to these very modest to be able to see these laws because it's not possible is said to. me. those people international horse return then carried them on the in the blankets and we give them to the opposition closer disease why i'm here for all and the possibility to show them we see they're all on the story or you end up servers elysia men we don't know who they are the armed opposition they have many strengths each one of those factions are working independently it's why it's very difficult to tell you they are. ahead in the next few minutes china's most ambitious space mission to date since its first ever female astronaut into orbit on a mission that could pave the way for china's bend space station. also police in

the u.s. seem to think a camera is more dangerous than a gun i think that's in question some journalists say they get in when faced with a brutal police action at protests rallies. that's a tough decision for egyptians as a vote for the country's next president to the election run of their choices between muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed morsi and. mubarak's last prime minister the ballot comes after the country's supreme council dissolved parliament and the same fate could now face an assembly appointed earlier to draft a new constitution thousands of people chose to boycott. they say need a candidate rip a sense of the egypt they will find this revolution the ruling military council promised a chance fate call it to the new president by july the first but independent journalist thomas payne think that that's highly unlikely. but it may sound harsh but to me this election is not about what the egyptian people want it's about what

the usa once egypt is run by a military council who was put in power by basically what the u.s. approval last year with the overthrow of mubarak the united states has invested something like one hundred billion dollars in today's dollars. keeping the egyptian military funded the election looks pretty rigged i mean the rules have been changed since the last election and the you know the reality is political power grows out of the barrel of a gun and injection no terry has the gun and they're being funded to a billion dollars every year by the usa you know whatever happens in the selection even if the muslim brotherhood does win the election the military still is going to her power. egypt's election is also being followed by the country's name by israel there she is anti jewish sentiment on the rise that says. it will spike if an islamist candidate comes to power and polity has a story and that. set a corner with these words the muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed morsi campaign

was launched with a vow that the capital of the arab world will be introduced and which morsi drawn into liberated six weeks on the contest is as tight as ever with morsi a strong contender to be egypt's next president and his promise is as governessing as ever egypt is committed to international agreements that were signed by hearing the treaty with israel egypt and should have the right to amend all that is not in their interest to go and make sure the other barry commits to what it is signed as if it's not warming enough for israel what will happen to the one nine hundred seventy nine peace treaty with egypt big players who've put their weight behind most his presidential bid has been even more bold in the claims of how big the war with israel is in no way something that can be ruled out the clock was always ticking the egyptian street no stranger to empty israel sentiment and despite the worries about stability in the revolution the elections simmering below the surface is hostility towards israel but that hostility was kept in check during the bikes

time the top floor of this building used to house these weighty embassy in cairo but it's now closed up and became a sign is rabies fear of what's to come. for egyptians it is really struggling and i mean number one the next president will be strong and change the status quo i refuse to continue the relationship never had with israel in the last continue to fight we know he's a realist the first for us next president should cut all the relations between us the memo which it's a three to israelis can no longer ignore thing that. anybody should close ones and ignore such rhetoric that's. not only very negative but it is alarming but a muslim brotherhood victory is not a done deal on thursday egypt's constitutional court dissolved the islamist dominated parliament and gave morsi is contender the green light to stay in the race but it's done little to calm israeli fears of an islamist government on its

border coalitions will be reduced to zero. but the real problem is to what extent will the brotherhood pursue its goal of trying to destroy israel and kill all of us. i would actually say that the main security danger to israel today and for the next two years is not iran but the situation in egypt a concern the islamists at least in public and at least for now are trying to downplay i think is the intro to some trouble here but not trouble. you know but maybe israelis are worried because in the ruthless business of politicking easy points are schooled by using the jewish state as a punchbag and what israelis fear is that what see today is only a step away from being implemented to move police reality kyla. is closely following developments in egypt stay with us for the latest updates and expert

analysis from the first the price mubarak presidential elections. just. a tyrannical. but it's time to come. on. public anger has spilled out onto the streets of rome with italians protesting at ever growing cuts and unpopular employment and tax policies it's fear the country which is of the euro zone's third largest economy could be next in line for a bailout r.t. sarah furthur is following the rally. thousands of people had. it right to the workers' unions much that protesting against the continued austerity measures that

have crippled because families face higher. fire unemployment in particular my son employment now cost you my advice last year and you had to take that prime minister mario monti coming and he was a man said fix the country's finances but that some economic medicine that he perspired has really angered retaliates here you can just see the large number of people that have turned out so this march today here is a third largest economy has seen its current course absolutely so and the impact is that people's lives is a very significant of course this is something we see this year and still building for a long time you go greece ireland portugal spain spain which is just recently had a bailout the souls and a lot of people think it's going to be following in the first that some of the other countries had a full state bailout in recent times remember just

a couple of years ago even love to mention the possibility about the euro mending about the end of the year is saying well just a couple of years on and those same people and now very realistically discussing the possibility of the disintegration and the break up of the year is the question that everyone's asking is what now happens next are we close to saying goodbye altogether to the year i how will that impact this country that is it's linked i think the. next this are. our thing right. greeks are gearing up to make one of the most crucial financial decisions in recent history their future in the euro support before sunday's election is said to be divided almost equally between two parties left wing siraj are strongly opposed and conservative group a new democracy which once to on a bailout obligations archies a jayco greece is in athens. this is really become

a two horse race about two differing schools of thought one of them is backing the waves of austerity rudie see which has been growing increasingly popular means job cuts means cuts to salaries and also means cuts to spending from the government part of this bailout provided by the e.u. i.m.f. and the euro zone has proven increasingly unpopular still being defended by new democracy there on the other side the french house the reason now beforehand before the previous elections in may these are seen as quite the outside left radical group now although they're really garnering much more middle ground when it comes the sentiment of opposing this. the measures being put in place of opposing what's come before them they say there's been too costly for the greek people in their eyes and in many greek voters are as austerity simply isn't working to dealing with a mixed bag but one fact remains that president people in greece are still

suffering prosperity and a crippled economy. we can now talk to financial writer peter build who joins us live from berlin peter on sunday greece a will hold a second election after the first one failed to bring about a coalition government what do you think the outcome will be this time around. well as we know over the last two weeks there have been no opinion polls so my guess is really certainly no better than your moaning in greece but i have a feeling just possibly that after the anger which was expressed in the first election which brought the new left if you like to the power and to bailout people there may be that may be overtaken by fear fear that if they do vote for that far left party if they do throw out the bailout terms they may not in fact be able to get any more money and the country would not only be bust immediately but would also probably have to leave the euro and that is not something that greeks want

includes all of the parties in contention now both the new left the party which has gone right down and indeed the new democrat. now in green that does exit the eurozone what impact would it have on the currency union as a whole. well that is really the if you like the sixty four trillion dollar question nobody actually knows it's never happened like this before that a very very tightly knit union currency union has ever actually broken up the real fear is that there could be immense legal battles going on for years and years and years between banks between debtors and loaned as simply because nobody knows exactly in what currency the debts that have been run up would have to be repaid those in greece perhaps would be repaid with a far devalued new drama but that of course could possibly put the banks in germany

in france in terrific trouble and so the real consequences are so enormous potentially enormous that nobody really wants to contemplate now the protests in rome that are calling for growth instead of causing more jobs instead of layoffs what do you think they tell you government should do to avoid becoming the next bailout nation. well certainly simply spending money at this stage is not going to help the italian government it might be the right thing to do economically but at the moment the austerity the those who argue for austerity in particular germany and even france they are simply not going to allow any any other governments to run up immense debts in order to if you like spend their way out of trouble the new fiscal pact which is coming in is simply going to make that impossible so what what

should italy be doing now well obviously they simply have to continue trying to make their. economy more competitive in order to compete against the germans in order that way to create jobs it's a supplies side solution not a demand low solution. now the euro zone has been under a lot of strain lately we've seen them you know bailout bailing out greece and then there were talks of spain and it's now it's really doesn't have enough money to actually bail out you know a large economy such as italy. well at the moment obviously not know the the funds that have been set up the so-called fire walls they are certainly not big enough to bail out italy but the problem is not really the amount of money that is potentially there it's a political question because if they are low or if you like demand of the european central bank that it prints new money then there is an endless amount of money

available so yes there is potentially enough money to bail out everybody and his mother but the will at the moment is not there to do that simply because it delays the problem of the lack of competitiveness of some of the euro zone countries well let's leave it right b.p. to build financial writer in berlin thank you for talking to us on r t. margaret. much more lined up for you and our t.j. i'll call the way we do reveal that tops a call from america's agent orange may have spread from vietnam to japan but fears that massive caches of the heaviside buried for decades have poisoned. the. bad and prevent these settings to silicon valley titans yahoo and microsoft have been cashing in on personal use the data selling it to a political campaign as. easy

the other cheek crew members will spend around ten days in awe that this spacecraft blasted off successfully from a launch pad in the desert in northwind china the aim of the mission is to test across the ability to dock at the. if successful it could pave the way for beijing setting up its space station by twenty twenty. the managing editor of space dot com says china is going full steam ahead with its ambitions. this is their big test to show that they can do it with people on board so they can do it with a mix crew. veterans and new space flyers for them it's a major milestone what china has done in just the last decade it has taken a stepping stone approach to human spaceflight so they went with unmanned launches first and in two thousand and three the first manned launch last year was the first unmanned docking at this space module but china is the third country after russia in the united states to develop human spaceflight and it really looked at the

success of russia's program the experience that nasa had to to shape its own independent program they've also just learned from the errors and the successes of those two programs so well you see where you see a long decades long legacy of russia and the united states trying is really relatively new but they're trying to focus on what they can do. successfully and that will be. really unique and tailored to what china hopes to accomplish in space . world news in brief now a twin car bomb explosions have rocked the rockies killing of two women injuring dozens of grass targeted neighborhoods where thousands of ship programs have gathered to mark a religious festival the violence is the latest in a wave of attacks on shia muslims in recent weeks seventy people killed on wednesday alone. japan's order to restart two nuclear reactors the first to go back online since all the country's plants were closed following last year's

dramatic scenes unfolding in the u.s. a must cover vent for journalists that the idea i showed them and apparently that wasn't enough for the new york police his press pass feeling to pass the test this reporter got arrested while covering the occupy wall street protests no muss no fuss officer just puts up something. and i just. tried to tell him that i'm a journalist. people out my state department. ask whether i have your police or unfortunately that's one expired can you rights for daily russian newspaper and has worked in the us for the last three years old don't prove you have they don't really care that just you just business and you credentials can't really protect you sit through a whirlpool like legal system the seasoned journalist was treated as a protest participant under arrest twenty four hours behind bars a quickie trial six hundred dollars in fines were his punishment for doing his job covering the news of the day and then there were the two days of community service

the what you never bring right away here there's an efficient station give you brooms trash cans and child and you basically walking around sweeping the streets picking up the debris paper cigarette about whatever kid who is now on probation for six months it is an outrage and i treat that professes to have a i'm diners that for a free press to be you know throwing reporters in jail you. know but this case is not unique rather it's part of a dangerous trend in the u.s. when you let the state control who is a journey. list that's just propaganda team pool is an independent journalist who has witnessed police reject press passes on a state by state basis throughout occupy wall street protests that in new york they don't care even if you have a press pass i've watched i've watched a cop grab a journalist with his press pass on the ground i've seen supervisors call out to

grab a journalist press pass and take it from him at d.c. p.d. processes things in oakland they require a local oakland press and i in new york they've been rejecting trespassers from other jurisdictions to have a first amendment which guarantees the freedom of the press i mean there is no nothing in the law which must at least agencies to determine which press and are legitimate press and which are not requiring a press pass it's also been sending journalists through a vicious circle not of just people work with guessing games of which state might be in next to cover a story near impossibility in the past these worlds obviously you have to prove that you've covered breaking news but it's hard to cover breaking news in the police won't let you so creates this catch twenty two take several months finally if they like the news you're making they'll let you get a pass. arbitrary or unattainable press passes demanded journalists arrested for

covering the news the constitutional concept of media freedom under siege i think we're slowly coming into a state of affairs where. doing a video camera is a lot more dangerous to the stablish myth and shooting a gun choosing to view his arrest as an invaluable cultural experience he treats it with humor i got two articles out of my experience so it's pretty good outcome for me freedom of the press in america a first hand account is the situation our party new york. in a few minutes will be heading over to our washington studios for the capital account that's often update on our top stories.
