months. thank you for joining r.t. this sunday with me karen tara. a southerner resort region of course now that is recovering after the worst floods in its history more than a hundred and seventy people were killed in the deluge caused by a tarantula rain thousands of houses were also destroyed dennis bolts reports. it was a noise of turf for the people of greensburg in almost an instant the small town was a good chile swept away by a torrent of rain and mud there was a giant wave of up to seven meters most of the buildings there willing to was lucky to survive the sudden burning to walk up his wife and son before rushing to help an elderly disabled neighbor from was. i presume enjoying the spirit is what arose

immediately we tried to do something to save our belongings but the water was everywhere it was high time was saved ourselves climbed up onto the roof and i said i'm spices others were not so lucky with many elderly people in particular found amongst the dead in the morning survivors desperately needed help fresh water dry clothes and food their s.o.'s message was answered with russian president vladimir putin writing to feed rescue and cleanup operations for himself besides thousands of emergency workers people from all walks of life rushed to crimps medical students assisted doctors vaccinating survivors fashion model and philanthropist but earlier with john over two gifts for children after an appeal of baseball i just left everything and came here just to just to clarify because i felt i had to and to see how how i myself can be helpful but also before doing that we kind of just got to do whatever we could in one day and we get this. tons of

half of it is sealed with a very necessary provision many locals refused to believe the official account but the flood was caused by torrential rains rumors that the deluge followed the discharge of water from a reservoir continued some spread by social media triggering a second wave of panic hundreds of people will gather here fearing that the new wave of floods is coming into town nobody says where they got this information basically people rely on rumors but false alarm however did not stop people from once again returning to their homes and continuing the massive operation these people just arrived from the i.c.c. they were volunteers they brought shovels rubber gloves everything that is needed to clean up the debris and many flood victims took matters into their own hands literally diving for their belongings greetings to come chats car i escaped an earthquake there and when i came here i got hit by a floods the russian. government and regions of georgie's are two companies see

victims with gash and help to rebuild their homes or you want to produce left with nothing and even though it may take weeks and months to get things back to normal the cyclone in southern russia is just refusing to give up even though the town has been badly hit it looks like the people of greensburg have not lost hope and against all odds they're staying and helping each other to rebuild their homes and their lives. crossing the region. a timeline of the tragedy that swept through southern russia is available on our web site and there's plenty more on the story at our t.v. dot com there you can see photos and footage from the scene of the disaster that the devastated towns and communities in southern russia. new details have emerged about bin bloodshed near the syrian city of hama which reportedly resulted in two hundred deaths they want findings suggest there had been fierce clashes between the heavily armed syrian army and rebel fighters on thursday

challenging opposition claims of a civilian massacre artist marie if a national brings us details from damascus. but your enemies are attrition hit syria has visited the village of tremseh in the syrian central province of hama hours after the news of much about the alleged massacre there and they've confirmed indeed fierce clashes between the rebels and the governmental forces took place on the ground but this concludes is that an attack apparently by the governmental forces appeared targeted at specific houses and specific groups especially on into faxes and opposition activists and this conclusion actually contradicts initial reports that we've been hearing from syrian opposition here they've been very close and they're real to believe in massacre the opposition has also claimed that at least two hundred people most of whom civilians have been killed in this incident actually what the international observers have discovered is in line with what

we've been hearing from official sources here in damascus that the army launched an assault against trouble hope but in this village in the province of hama we've been hearing accounts from official sources that the army even allowed some time for local residents of this village to evacuate and that was only off to the rebels refused to surrender that's going to intensify did this village holding this assault officials have come to me to say that they've seized many weapons from what they call word terrorists and they've killed many of them and even captured some of them and we've seen apparently some of these people on syrian t.v. here in damascus and this can fast they were involved in this incident in what happened in the village of tremseh and they've even sad that they were given weapons that buys forces from abroad and especially from turkey while problems continues to rage everywhere call syria it still remains unclear exactly who the

syrian government the syrian regime is fighting against his more important that since the uprising in syria escalated the west has been consistently calling on assad. and his government to step down you know defectively to give in to the demands of the armed opposition but it seems so far there is no clear understanding of who exactly they are. the media. these fighters of the syrian opposition they're brave determined full of pride they took the fate in their hands. but for some taken control of their destiny meant taken up arms in this amateur video posted on you tube which cannot be independently verified gunmen calling themselves members of the opposition militia from it live explain why this man was hanged and which he helped the syrian regime and was killing the rebels they say i am. on behalf of all friends let me express

my admiration by their bravery over the norm but this kind of justice only adds more anger to what has already been called a civil war. with a terrorist group of those murderers i believe is necessary for any citizen to leave these. we cannot ask the opposition to unilaterally give up their struggle for justice dignity and self-determination in any other video whose origin is hard to establish these men say they captured the syrian air force officer then they dispense even more rough justice. the united states will continue providing non-lethal assistance to help those inside syria who are carrying the fight to organize and better communicate.

i found a mark in this video of the boys behind the camera says the fight must go on it warns this will happen to anyone who corporates with the assad government. they are top criminals these people type of criminality how do they have the rape i feel sad when you find your country destroyed our country we've been building more lives the whole world wants to see a political transition from this illegitimate regime seem to actually see one that can take care of its people many how were fear that should such people force assad to leave since like these could become a familiar occurrence and have little faith in a western force democracy. where there are going to go democracy in the gulf or in other countries we are syrian people we should decide these things ourselves. this mantra that the syrian people alone should determine their country's future has been repeated by many nations and has finally been recognized by major world powers

but it was some states continue to call on assad to leave and support in his opponents fears mountie in syria that is the people that will pay the ultimate price. r.t. from damascus in syria the u.s. and its allies are pushing for a u.n. security council resolution demanding that president assad but not the rebels comply with the peace plan or face action russia and china say they won't allow military interference in syria middle east expert to recall he believes it's no coincidence that opposition claims of army atrocities and home are come during crucial foreign diplomacy over syria. i have seen evidence now from journalists in the field i cross. who insist their own cross the t.'s carried out by the syrian national council and they all when i say from supporters of creating

mayhem in some areas and they are deliberately carrying out these are crossties so that they can be blamed on to. the regime the regime does its own planes we know that but these people are by no means on the side of the angels as the as they've protected if we're going to have sanctions why not impose on them sanctions on these armed groups that are creating made him in their country it is not only our so they have been very clear over the last few weeks and one can't simply say that this is justified because of who they are fighting against you know the syrian national council which is the favored group of the western countries eat only of the word is negotiation discussion constitution constituent assembly and that it is now obvious that the west is not going to lead because they are affectively backing

the people who are opposed to any negotiate so talk and elsewhere in the region anti-government protests in bahrain are dying down despite the authorities as baron on opposition rallies there were fresh clashes between demonstrators and riot police on saturday and it's forecast that confrontations will escalate between the ruling sanaa monarchy and the majority shiite population american academic collin cabell who's spent a lot of time in the region says a crackdown on dissent in bahrain makes the country's criticism toward syria illegitimate. the khalifa or continuing to be a very scary. pro-democracy opposition is a quarter mile with three quarters of the barbie lation firing. injuring many of the protestors and killing some of the older people in the protests because this is only two. and of course the georgians continue to jail and

continue. whole areas to many observers about the so-called friends of syria being backed by the most autocratic monarchies in the world saudi arabia. bahrain regimes in the. history of democracy and all put to do this free syrian army bunch of mercenaries have no legitimacy. and along with bahrain saudi arabia has been stepping up its crackdown on anti-government rallies activists say two men were killed in the oil rich eastern province after police opened fire on protests strader it by the arrest of a prominent shiite cleric last sunday the saudi authorities have to point extra troops to the area amid worries a fresh anoraks among their shia party went long complained of discrimination by the sun i will link family. so i have for you this hour greece lurches from

recession to racism. we report on how the cutbacks are driving prejudice and violence against non greeks living in the death stricken country. plus restricting civil liberties or boosting transparency we look at the much criticized russian bill that labels campaign groups funded from abroad as foreign agents. it's been a turbulent week for spain where more than seventy people have been injured in days of anti-war protests that began on wednesday when miners supported by thousands of demonstrators converged on the trip security forces fired rubber bullets to disperse the crowds the workers protests turned violent on friday when the spanish government around the heights in exchange for a euro zone bailout to save the country struggling banks crisis and strategic gonzalo says he expects more unrest to come. the people in power or the

political leadership in the e.u. as well as the united states don't quite seem to understand what is going on and they don't quite seem to stand up. to the dangers the profits are obscene but i think that these governments are believe that now continuously it's just simply that i can actually feel now of course the people realize he is so big you are upset about it but of course the politicians do absolutely nothing to rein in that part of the day mr leask and instead what are the police to start to be very bold about it fracking and not solving the problems that we have we have on the one hand an out of control financial sector which is basically raping the public tilt and on the other hand you have necessarily cuts to the general social safety net that had been promised but simply not because it's simply too expensive. this is.

before the war unfortunately she did it we're going to see throughout the e.u. . across the mediterranean ingredients the economic woes there have fueled the rise in racial intolerance violent attacks on immigrants has surged as extreme right wing views get a bigger voice in parliament following last month's elections party pledges include ridding the country of all immigrants and origin volunteers to donate blood only to greeks chica groups reports. all round the country crumbles some parts of greece acing firm foundations take root. in that we want a nationalistic state all of them should go back to where they came from the word of an elected official as unemployment grows hand in hand with extremist sentiments looking for people to blame for their current plight the golden dawn party has proven to be the prime outlet for public anger get that if you ask me about

violence i would have to say yes we do have violence increase the not the violence you're suggesting it is the violence that thousands of greeks suffer from but those gangs of foreigners that we have allowed to govern accumulate in our land. despite spouting racism from the podium and scandals including physically assaulting politicians live on air the party still secured around seven percent of the vote in the parliamentary elections. campaigning with a promise to throw all sick immigrants out of their hospital beds and then send three pledge as having dark consequences as greece and in particular athens have seen a spike in the number of hate crimes that have seen almost they are that's the part that's by organized groups and by savary seeming that these attacks are happening at night and therefore ever doesn't integrate by people who are often for dead and armed with clubs. came to greece two years ago fleeing war torn somalia

but he's found no peace in athens i want to wish if i'd known what it was going to be like here i would never have left somalia from what happened to you when you're attacked. they beat me to the ground and ran over my leg with a bike. his case is by no means unique the mother of these children was also assaulted while pregnant the perpetrators remain at large this in neighborhoods like this in central athens where an increasing number of attacks are taking place the so-called vigilante groups in disco targeting ethnic minorities. victims say there's little point turn to police they're just not interested. greece's immigrant influx is worse than any other e.u. country is poorest border of turkey where ninety percent of all those seeking refuge and to europe and in a country that circling the drain and nationalist rhetoric flooding into mainstream

politics anything that the lads who made the here are the eventual group militant it insists it's an e.u. wide problem which hardpressed greece ends up paying for twice with a double into agreement what happens is once one illegal immigrant is been caught. in that in another place in europe he's going back to that country that here into europe and ups. that means they end up in greece. pleads for more e.u. support the refugees just keep on coming the danger for them is not the trouble they're fleeing from the extremism but entering j.q. greece athens and you can head online for all the stories we're covering there here's what else you can discover. a gas station up truck and a crash of one

this month after washington eventually apologized. campaign groups operating in russia that are funded from abroad and involved in politics are likely to face tougher scrutiny they countries a lower house of parliament has given the green light to a bill forcing such organizations to register as foreign agents such groups will have to undergo financial all of it and issue regular reports on their activities failure to do so could mean a heavy fines or even two years in jail that's caused a storm within russia society or with criticism that it restricts civil liberties but those behind the law say the measures will help boost transparency the u.s. also weighed in against the bill despite having almost identical legislation itself with more here's our washington correspondent going to. the west hurried to dump the proposed legislation is a kremlin crackdown on n.g.o.s sure the money flow where the money coming. toward

you or your organization so you get transparency you get regulation you get them on and you know. these are all things that a nation. a sovereign is allowed to do u.s. officials were quick to express concern presenting it as an exclusively russian initiative but as the russian foreign minister said the concept and even the wording of the proposed law was almost entirely borrowed from the american bill called the foreign agents registration act if you were. if you work for another country you have to register. that country. again that's that's not. represent the country. if you. are a nation veronica question in nick of us says while in the u.s. she was forced to register as

a foreign agent even though she was not involved in any political activities. to them i was a representative from st petersburg we promoted economy corporation to reason cultural ties nevertheless the u.s. justice department which more new touristic tutors and foreign agents insisted that representatives of cities also register disappointing agents version of the law doesn't even include known political actors like that the foreign agents registration act in the u.s. quote requires persons acting as agents of foreign principals in a political or quasi i political capacity to make periodic public disclosure of their relationship with the foreign principal as well as a pivotal receipts and disbursements in support of those activities end of quote the sponsors of the russian bill say their version is almost identical with the american law the us argues the difference is that their law doesn't address nonprofit organisations but many see another difference when he knew that the us doesn't have thousands of forming organizations which work to change its

constitution to change its leadership but we in russia do have a situation when scores of organizations work pre-science found that for example when some calls for people to join a protest they have the right. you know who's behind that and you know whose payroll they are members of some non-governmental organizations met with hillary clinton behind closed doors in st petersburg afterwards one of them media the russkie said the sec chris state is aware of the proposed law and quote is searching for ways to modify the support of russia's angels without subjecting them to a crackdown end of quote we say non governmental organizations many of these organizations are government funded right so they get some of their funding from from the government of the united states anyway so and if she's saying that then that they certainly do and they are certainly going to either get it over only and maybe she's hinting it covertly i don't know many of the n.g.o.s in russia which get their financing from abroad to preach openness and transparency and the sponsors of

this washington bill argue it only makes says that they themselves are subject to the same principles of transparency i'm going to check on in washington are to. stay with our tail be back to recap you on this week's top stories.
