in the russian capital you're watching a group representing the free syrian army to washington and trying to talk americans into pushing through a no fly zone over the volatile country the so-called syrian support group says the time for the move has come as a claims there's been a sharp increase in the use of airstrikes against rebels by government forces activists have kept reporting heavy shelling and air raids by the syrian army across the country including parts of the capital damascus recent reports of mass death in the capital caused a hailstorm of foreign media criticism against the syrian government the target of the finger pointing was as usual beyond doubt about the release of chalk and related food by syrian t.v. has drawn a completely different picture you know look into yet another round of a never ending media battle. thousands of people dead and the conflict between anti assad fighters and government forces seems nowhere near close this becomes all the more obvious as horrifying images like these continue to surface this is
1:02 am
a syrian television report featuring gruesome footage from a damascus suburb slaughtered civilians men women teenagers and children. killing women and children in cold blood paid. entire families slaughtered bodies burned witnesses and the injured left in shock i didn't know who did this to me i know nothing about the whereabouts of my husband and my children my husband works for the security forces i have two boys and a girl terrorists spread among survivors seek help us get rid of these gangsters he destroyed everything we are unable to do nothing i don't know anything about my family please help us who they are those behind this massacre of yet another group of civilians in syria remains unclear now tradition in the syrian conflict both sides point fingers at each other as armed groups claim the assad regime is behind
1:03 am
the slaughter the assad army says it was on a mission to hunt down armed rebels in the affected area throughout the syrian bloodshed numerous human rights reports say civilians have been used as human shields by armed opposition groups something largely ignored by the western media waging a war of its own often eager to blame the assad government as part of their push for regime change on august thirtieth the you want security council is scheduled to hold a ministerial meeting on the crisis at a time when the whole world is puzzled about what to do about syria the incident in dariush or to play into the hands of those who are trying to increase support for the fight against assad and they say. moscow. meanwhile paris has made its latest move the political gambit over the syrian crisis french president francois hollande has called on syria's opposition to form a provisional government saying france won't hesitate to recognize it sponsors are silly reports on what this means for the conflict. the french president laundered
1:04 am
issued a statement with several points when it comes to syria first of all he had urged different rebel groups and opposition members to come together to form a representative provisional government now he said that if and when they do this france is ready to recognize this group now we know that on the ground there are still divisions and different factions of rebel groups however on the outside we also know that there are several members of different opposition groups such as the syrian national council the muslim brotherhood among others who've already been meeting for a few months now are drawing a road map for a post assad syria and they are set to release their plans and their findings in the coming weeks and again. their future support for a government formed by the rebel groups and aside from that a lot had also said that any use of chemical weapons by the assad regime would justify a direct intervention now this echoes what u.s.
1:05 am
president barack obama has said just a week ago and also along the says he's looking at to create a buffer zone within syria and this is to follow on the idea that turkey had pushed forward to manage the increasing number of refugees flowing into neighboring countries we've already seen some conflict in the neighboring lebanon on for any humanitarian buffer zone and that they're calling it would involve some sort of military operation and military involvement which they say is in order to safeguard the safety of civilians who are listening to all this rhetoric especially coming from along this does echo of his room in a sense of what his predecessor had said just a year ago with regard to syria also before that with regard to libya we see from the rhetoric and from the moves the actions of western leaders as well as their allies that it is clear that they do want to get involved in the syrian crisis one way or another in one capacity or another be that i'm. terry involvement as well.
1:06 am
washington has been has a tent in supporting the french president's call over the formation of an interim government a number of officials in the obama administration have said the syrian opposition isn't ready for such a move brian becker from the anti-war answer coalition believes it's unacceptable and dangerous to grant power to those currently representing the opposition. that's very odd and ironic in fact completely hypocritical to have the french government saying to the syrian opposition you form a government and we'll recognize you i mean that's just a script from the good old days when the colonial powers operated through proxies there was an opposition a big opposition to the assad government in syria that was against violence against civil war and particularly against foreign intervention they've been pushed to the side and in their places the free syrian army so-called the so-called syrian revolutionaries who are nothing really at this point other than the chosen proxies of the foreign powers so it will be they those who control the monopoly of violence
1:07 am
that is the nato powers themselves who will be the ultimate determiner of what the character is of this new so-called opposition government or what they will declare to be the legitimate government of the syrian people. coming up later the program missing migrants. some people may have left the country some of them may still be here i think the key tools of the agency had no idea how many it would actually still of the country and how many had left the u.k. divorce and tough measures against illegal immigrants only to realize there is no way of figuring out whether the or indeed the fact. is no found fair opening for the republican convention as a gathering down to showcase mitt romney as the party's presidential candidate is disrupted by tropical storm isaac. egypt's president mohamed morsi set to arrive on his first trip to china accompanied by seven ministers and over

billion pound government spending budget just one point nine billion is allocated to the border agency that's just a third of one percent it's an incredibly small amount and historically underfunded and still cripplingly under-resourced the u.k. border agency is now under pressure and the latest revelations that more than one hundred fifty thousand migrants the missing could just be the tip of the iceberg about one hundred fifty thousand figure came from the couch where people have applied to extend. the refuse and then go into a much bigger part. or it's harder and different people try to come up with. a million sounds about what number of people are here. which. immigration lawyer tells us this the blue agencies don't have any hope of reducing the number of missing migrants they need to radically change their approach i think you need to essentially stop promoting
1:14 am
a very tough line because the people who absorb the top flight in the media or of course the markets themselves and they don't come forward if the u.k. promote a transparent fair line and say we'll take every case individually deserves they want to go but these individual groups can stay if people would come forward this hundred fifty nine would go down instantly and then applications could be processed properly instead it seems that will be a need database that will be depended upon to track down those staying in britain illegally expected to launch next month amongst the companies bidding for the tender is g. four g. four s. the company that created a high profile control to see recently when it failed to deliver enough stuff for the olympic games this seeking the multi-million pound contract that's the place to aid the clean up of a catalogue of disasters and mismanagement in the u.k. immigration system so if. london were going to live from moscow will be changing gears very soon this hour. some of them they don't like here and there
