hello and welcome says r.t. from moscow you're watching the weekly roundup of the top stories of the last seven days with me kevin i mean and first the resort region of dar in the south of russia is picking up the pieces after the worst natural disaster in its history massive flash flooding killed over one hundred seventy people and destroyed thousands of homes. skis in the region for. it was a night of terror for the people of green in almost an instant the small town was virtually swept away by a torrent of rain and mud deluge by a giant wave of up to seven meters most of the buildings there wellington was lucky to survive in a sudden burning queue woke up his wife and son before rushing to help an elderly disabled neighbor has them enjoying the experience what arose immediately tried to do something to save our belongings but the water was everywhere it was high time was saved ourselves and we climbed up onto the roof spaces others were not so lucky

with many elderly people in particular found amongst the dead in the morning to reuters desperately needed help fresh water dry clothes and food their s.o.'s message was answered thousands of emergency workers people from all walks of life rushed to chremes medical students assisted doctors selection aiding survivors fashion model and philanthropist but earlier with john over two gifts were 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 i kind of just got to do whatever we could in one day and we gathered does. tons of half of it there's still this. very necessary provision many locals who refused to believe the official account that the flood was caused by torrential rains rumors that the deluge followed a discharge of water from

a reservoir continued some spread by the 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're volunteers they. brought shovels rubber gloves everything that is needed to clean up the debris many flood victims took matters into their own hands really diving put their belongings greetings to come shots car i mean an earthquake there and when i came here i got hit by a floods the russian government and regions of georgie's are to compensate victims with cash and help to rebuild their homes or new ones but those left with nothing and even though it may take weeks and months to get things back to normal this current southern russia is just refusing to give up even though the town has been

badly hit it looks like the people of chremes have not lost hope and against all odds they're staying and helping each other to rebuild their homes and their lives does backi are to cross into our region. in time out of the tragedy that swept through southern russia is available on our website there's plenty more on the story of our t. dot com which is expect from us now that you can see photos and footage from the scene of that disaster this devastated towns and communities in southern russia. here in observers probing a mass killing in syria's hama province of confirmed the regime's claims that its military was targeting rebel fighters in the area now this contradicts oppositions reports of a civilian massacre something the u.s. and its allies rushed to report. brings us more now from the capital damascus you may find some of the images coming up in this report disturbing. but you're an observer trim mission hint 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 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 ahmed to faxes and opposition activists and this conclusion actually contradicts initial reports that we've been hearing from syrian opposition here that they've been very close and this is been a massacre the opposition has also claims 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 confessed 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 abides forces from abroad and especially from turkey while problems continues to rage everywhere cool 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 his and. government to step down you know defectively want 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. submitted to. 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 north 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 and 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 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 but united states will continue providing non-lethal assistance to help those inside syria who are carrying the fight to organize and better communicate. in this video of the voice behind the camera says the fight must go on it warns this will happen to anyone who carter race with the assad government. their top criminals these people top of criminality how do they have the right feel sad when

you find your country destroyed our country we've been building our lives the whole world wants to see a political transition from this illegitimate regime she actually see one that can take care of its people many here however 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 they target 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 why some states still continuing to call on assad to leave and support in his opponents fears mounted in syria but this is the people who pay the ultimate price . for a flush out sea from damascus in syria. a blast to see if

a security force bus in the capital damascus reportedly wounding several people it's the latest in a string of attacks on government sites which the authorities blame on terror groups middle east expert told me the unrest as modified greatly now with the government's forced to wage war against militants who have infiltrated syria. the situation has come changed completely there are still peaceful protests this but as an increasing number not only of. people but also of jihadists of islamic scientists who have the only purpose to fight. government and as far as western media are concerned well they follow the general pattern would started from the beginning the victim the rochas bashar asad and we have to all the same it's the same strategy which hillary clinton promoted right from the beginning and many nearly all the governments from nato

states they followed this pattern so they are not really interested in the vast majority of the media they stick to this fishel peten which is promoted by the western governments. still to come on the program this new scene from moscow tonight including a look at how immigrants and paying the price of greece's financial woes brace its attacks is surging in athens these days is expected right bunch of galvanized public anger and foreigners is the source of greece's trouble the stepping up or coming up. to be investigates of a serious run should the u.s. mountains allegedly harboring russian children adopted by american foster parents later abandoned. but next havoc on the streets of spain this week has penned so public rage over the government's austerity drive spilled over into clashes with police mass protests by miners began this wednesday police reaction so over seventy

people injured and she would clashes. culp's fired rubber bullets at the demonstrators many activists and a government in madrid this friday approved a new round of cuts a pre-condition of the year was a rescue deal for ailing spanish banks. and we keep believe that after all of this the prime minister should resign. the tendency is to think maybe that. protesters have become desensitized to all of the police violence because we've been dealing with it for a year but today we saw pictures of you know images of an eleven year old child shot in the head with a rubber bullet ok we've seen we've seen policemen with no with no badges of course that's become you know standard operating procedure for them basically i don't know how much further they can really push it you know if you had any sense of decency or even a fragment of the dignity that miners and the protesters the indignados have that

he would resign along with the rest of his government he's broken every campaign promise that he's made some even comical levels you know his entire party was saying that raising the sales tax was you know one thinkable and all that and now we have a twenty one percent sales tax and i think people are are wising up to this you know they see a lot of similarities between what was happening in this country forty fifty years ago and and what's happening today. now on the other side of the mediterranean in greece austerity driven rioting and protests have morphed into something much more sinister their violent attacks on immigrants are surging is extreme right wing factions revel in their newfound public support they've pledged indeed to rid the country of all immigrants and are even urging volunteers to donate blood to greeks only r.t. jacob greaves reports from athens. while all around the country crumbles some parts of greece seeing 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 but not the violence you're suggesting it is the violence that thousands of greeks suffer from by those goings of foreigners that we have allowed to govern accumulate in our ally and. despite spouting racism from the podium and scandals including physically assaulting politicians live on air the party still secured around seventy percent of the vote in the parliamentary elections. campaigning with a promise to throw all sick immigrants out of their hospital beds and incendiary 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 bad

times by organized groups by savary see me 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 not much 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 as in neighborhoods like this in central athens where an increasing number of attacks are taking place in the so-called vigilante groups and discover it's hard to ethnic minorities. victims

say there's little point turn to the police but just not interested. greece's immigrant influx is worse than any other e.u. country is poorest border with turkey where ninety percent of all those seeking refuge and to europe and in a country that circling the drain and nationalist rhetoric is flooding into mainstream politics anything that. moved to the here are the groups minute hardest insists it's an e.u. wide problem which hard pressed greece ends up paying for twice we've heard that when two agreement what happens is once one in the government is going to court. in the mother please in europe he is going back to the ground through europe. means the end up in greece well athens pleads for more support the refugees just

keep on coming but danger for them is not the trouble that fleeing from the fire of extremism entering thank you greets r.t. happens on the second day of a visit to egypt to a secular state hillary clinton met with field marshal hussein term tower he's chief of the country's armed forces that of course the day after she spoke with the country's newly elected islamist leader mohammed morsi let's get more perspective on both these meetings that and what the u.s. stands to gain dom to bars on the line is in new york is nancy war activist and journalist dawn hi there. first if we can clinton urged the armed forces to pass power to the president is that going to any time soon. it's a very mischievous suggestion by clinton the. egypt is a pivotal nation in the region the united states is taking a very forward based foreign policy you could look at libya syria and iran as

examples of that since president obama took office and egypt the egyptian people put themselves on the map last year by getting rid of mubarak who was essentially a us puppet since anwar sadat was assassinated in one thousand nine hundred one but egypt since the revolution in one nine hundred fifty two has been pivotal in the it was one of the founders of the nonaligned movement in the bond on conference was very heavily influenced by kemal nasr and. it's been a thorn in the u.s. aside in the way it exerted power or look at the suez nationalization in one nine hundred fifty six the fact that the united states was not allowed to have germany in the region in the middle east while nasser was alive also nasty that was one of the first pan-african as susu up to unite you know he worked with. and ali salafi to sort of integrate the arab and subsaharan parts of africa and

that's one of the reasons i think he died of a heart attack in one nine hundred seventy that september was a very interesting month but i'm going to say it's a lovely bit of history i can see why it's in context but we got two minutes i just wanted to say at the end of the day though a course the military is heavily relied on u.s. money did that meeting although it looked very cold deal and he was speaking no watching the pictures of them walking up the stairs look friendly enough but field-marshal a ton tali after the meeting he would never let the muslim brotherhood dominate so did it really go down at all well the meeting to go is the u.s. would have liked to look like i think the u.s. would like to see the appear. the military backing down with the military actually continuing to wield power regardless of what one thinks of the muslim brotherhood and there are segments of that aligned with the us their position in power right now rests on the backs of the people in the streets and as long as that's true

those people in the streets have power that i think the united states would like to negate. let's talk about mr morsi since he was elected as president he's gradually been upping the ante in the standoff with the military the flipside of this if there isn't a resolution soon what shape well if you take next you think was it going to go. you know in my opinion an awful lot of it is posturing i think morsi would like to have more power personally but i'm not so sure that morsi and the elected majority in the disbanded parliament or. hostile to u.s. interests in the area in that regard the proof will be in the putting with respect to whatever policy they take towards israel but i do believe that clinton would like to at least for a mop and gain some legitimacy for the military to try to make them an equal partner because i think that that leaves the united states free to do all kinds of machinations going forward and that's their intent certainly beyond this things

would have a real picture is made in the us what do you think washington really feels about dealing with an islamist regime. well they have no problem dealing with syria and libya so and again many people you know the folks who supposedly assassinated anwar sadat were connected in one way or another to the muslim brotherhood that's the official story from the united states my suspicion is it was the u.s. military but they certainly have no problem dealing with muslim countries like saudi arabia and qatar i believe as long as those countries recognize that they're subordinate to u.s. power the united states has no problem dealing with them don't focus your thoughts we can bring about progress on this as always when we got a couple of minutes down the bar antiwar activists and much. we've had come from one of the stories that now unrest in israel thousands rally to mark a year since the start of mass social protest in the country with one man in tel

aviv setting himself on fire reporting that's the last night the more pictures of what happened anyway that online also without. a successful blast off as witnessed here live earlier on r.t. japanese u.s. and russian nationals heading into orbit to carry a unique scientific experiment from baikonur to watch the full video that incredible launch team. the deal to help safeguard children adopted by families in the united states has been ratified by the russian parliament the changes come out of the heels of chilling examples of abuse against russian children by their adoptive american parents and his media culture never has more. just some eight kilometers from the canadian border stands a remote trains hidden in the mountains and forests of this northwest part of the u.s. for many adopted children from russia who have found themselves abandoned once again this remote train in the state of montana has become their last resort through so

much rejection but despite its noble goal care homes like this and there are several across the country are close to the outside world and it's almost impossible to discover the fate of these neglected children last week russia's children strides commissioner pavel try to visit the range but it was denied access to the children living there. with their assume many lies about the real conditions of two hundred directed by u.s. parents we have no idea what's really going on i know there were twenty four russian children of different ages and as i understand it there were already just days before my visit russia has long been demanding information from u.s. authorities on the fate of children after they have been taken in by adoptive families but under u.s. law once a child is legally adopted the state has no specific responsibility to monitor or

oversee how they are doing with their new families in rison years it's an issue that has caused several difficulties in relations between the two countries since russia suspended adoption of its children by americans that was prompted by widespread outrage after a tennessee mother sent her adopted eight year old son back to moscow alone with a known saying she no longer wanted him and there was no isolated case nineteen russian children have been killed or badly injured since overseas adoptions began in nine hundred ninety one including seven year old you violence kind of a god though was beaten to death by his american foster parents. it's out and this harrowing example from twenty ten when an american mother held herself punishing her adopted as little russian little boy why do you like to me. if you. like to me what what you think to me.

you want such was what you mean. jessica beagley was charged with child abuse and there is untold numbers of children who have been and are being abused but it isn't stable and so it doesn't make the headlines we have no way of knowing though there has been some progress in the political arena there were thousands of russian children fostered an adopted across the u.s. and while some may well have phone loving families nobody knows just how many a suffering the fate of little evens could have i got the lead in a question artsy reporting from los angeles california. got small coming in fifteen minutes tonight where a foreman a one star lewis hamilton takes a drive through central moscow more of that than in the rest of the day sporting headlines supastar interview coming up to all the year where the next thirty
