the summit after the gyptian president called the government in damascus quote oppressive the gathering in iran that was made up of a third of the un members who don't consider themselves part of any world power block host tehran used the meeting to propose creating a three nation group comprising of themselves egypt and venezuela to try and help end the syrian conflict or the un chief by ki-moon who's at the meeting despite u.s. objections says iran can play a role in holding the war in syria that's iran's own international issues including its disputed nuclear program or also part of the ongoing discussions iran's supreme leader ayatollah khomeini's stressed his country is not seeking atomic weapons but won't under any circumstance give up its right to peaceful nuclear energy or right up on political record things tehran is actually being quite courteous. the i.a.e.a. has a twenty four hour around the clock monitoring system off the facilities and mr ban ki moon can watch it from his office at the united nations so i think that is just

agree courteous gesture on behalf of iran to invite him to the solidity mr brime ki-moon does recognize the fact and he has said so this iran is a key player in the region and nothing much really can be solved youth now as you know on its participation and i'm sure that the united states and israel good likeness to ban ki moon to come down hard on iraq and then as he's also aware of the fact there's two thirds of the countries that belong to the united nations are member countries of the nine aligned movement united states state department likes to say many things and i think it's precisely because they do tend to be very aggressive in their foreign policy towards certain countries and pretty clear although i think they have the whole goal in mind they would love to be a global vision monic power. the nonaligned movement now is one hundred percent coming together to resist this kind of aggression to resist this kind of double

standards and hypocrisy and i think that's probably really thinking of the united states to this point. all right it is just turning ten minutes past the hour here in moscow just still to come for you how a dream for a better life can just make matters worse. syria you die quickly but here we are dying you see will give a report on the fate of tens of thousands of refugees fleeing from violence in syria meeting despair on arrival and then you. are looking for traces of extremism in islamic russia the recent assassinations of two prominent muslim clerics and baffle investigators trying to identify the roots of hatred. now amid the fierce battles between government forces and rebels syria's president made his longest t.v. appearance in months stressing his confidence in victory over insurgents however bashar al assad admitted it would take some time for the country to scramble out of

the crisis but he lashed out at turkey saying it bears direct responsibility for the bloodshed in syria some of the latest fighting has taken place at the airport in the province where the rebels are reportedly destroyed ten government fighter jets a similar attack on another local airport was repelled down the military hardware saved sister agnes mariam who actually spent over a decade in syria and came to the aid of the suffering when the conflict erupted says armed gangs started causing chaos a long time ago. power of thought it is a religious it's not political it's not even civilian in the january i ask to go to do or position part where to get it were already implemented ok and so i could have an idea as an eyewitness and in the beginning we did not even know who were source people and we said said those people there were.

identified the gangs you know we said we don't know who they are but they are spreading. these or the. killings abducting and the many kind you know of metal rods for example they would keep a low if i have seen. in homes or. if luck of blood. because in the day before. people you know source and i did then defied gangs have been beheading nine i know with people just because they were i know it i have seen this with my eyes i. i. cannot i've missed out on the full version of this interview with a firsthand accounts from deep inside syria that's coming up in about twenty minutes right here on out. for now there were jordanian security forces at a massive refugee camp on the border with syria are on high alert after two hundred

refugees turned on the guards over the camp's conditions and as are his policy reports stealing with the immense influx of refugees is far beyond what jordan can handle. they're exhausted and drained there's not much for these refugees to do besides swelter under the scorching desert sun sheltering from the violence back home in syria they walked for days in the heat to get here and so they come in numbers and under the wire not one person here has gone through the official borders instead depending on the level of violence in syria as many as a thousand people each day are fleeing across into jordan they're picked up from the border by the jordanian police and brought here to the scamp. and now a man doesn't know what to do with them the country is struggling with few natural resources little water and is in need of foreign aid their growing number is putting pressure on in a way the refugee way republic we can close the border in the faces of the refugees

we have to help them syria is like a sister to jordan and king abdullah and present assad friends now our king is in a very difficult situation it goes on there has a direct impact on what has. relations between a man in damascus are already strained a number of defected soldiers and senior officers are being sheltered in the kingdom the most high profile refugee was the prime minister riyad hitch up who fled to turkey through jordan earlier this month and then that the tribes who fearing massive amounts of weapons ammunition and sniper rifles to syria from jordan saudi arabia is promising economic assistance in exchange for months cooperation but it could backfire. if there is regime change in syria and the extremists come to power. problems for jordan where we have our own extremists although they're far more flexible. and so now jordan faces the backlash of a conflict which some in the country have helped escalate meanwhile more than one

hundred fifty thousand refugees remain stuck on its borders and what's supposed to be a safe enclave but way food is hard to come by toilets case and not enough tends to go around leaving some to the mercy of harsh desert conditions. the atmosphere here is so so band you die quickly but here we are dying a slow death i wish now i never left to come here. ordinarily escaped the wave of uprisings that swept the arab world it says it's getting reforms in place. between both sides it might not be enough to stop the serious shockwave however that conflict in. camp on the jordanian syrian border. of course we have plenty more for you on our website. the news analysis available twenty seven for example a blast from the past one of germany's the largest city. that's right there

authorities perform a controlled detonation of world war two. what does it take to shoot down a passenger plane and find out how a miscommunication almost resulted in. his words we have for you this hour for example a space taken quite literally. the dreams of one. train to the. more real.

a female suicide bomber made her way into the mufti's residence unimpeded and then set off the explosives tied to her body a concern has also been fueled by an earlier double assault on muslim figures in their public of tatarstan some experts believe the roots of extremism lead all the way to the middle east others though say the threat from hatred could be even stronger. investigates. the trip to work the tragedy their stance had moved he was driving when a series of blasts threw him from his core the man who's been openly against the spread of radical ideas on the lever survived to fly in on his deputy was shot dead in another part of town investigators still don't know the exact motivation behind the attack but the spotlight is now on to other stun most people here are muslim and that gets mentioned more and more when it comes to the spread of radical islam in russia just some of the local muslim communities are financed by arab funds from

states where work is an official religion the money has to be worked off and they demand their ideology is spread here. like a business is one of the most fundamental branches of islam it strongly advocated in saudi arabia which backs it up with billions of dollars of support across the muslim world it's forwards often oppose all other religions sometimes even calling for jihad holy war against them but in your. radical movement of us lot of course not part of the official religion here but i thought the same different ideas often taught in smaller mosques hidden from the mainstream. like this one former boiler house we built into a mosque in one of gazans many apartment block you aren't it's a mom's denying radical but admit they do not support your stance official branches of islam. we don't divide brother muslims and there can be no radicalism no terrorism these are words only used by prove

a kidders who want to discredit islam we were told here believers are taught sincerely any quality and there are no longer up held in modern society with justice can only be achieved through islam and when someone says islam is the only fair way of life and social order they're called radical or extremist and what's the punishment for stealing the hand is chopped off. not the kind of punishment you'd find in russia's criminal code nevertheless such ideas are reportedly gaining more support among young muslims for some experts it could be partly to blame on how the list of banned extremist literature was thrown together. often in books by classical world famous author is a band or the sum of prophet muhammad saying how can we expect muslims to react and of course the radicals use this to gain influence. of course there are those that only as long we've rumiko mean grooved by the worst of radical islam how the street

reacts to the spread of extremism is no key in the room use could only worsen the situation you go to school move already guys i don't understand or are twenty minutes past the hour here in the russian capital two women have been stabbed to death in central russia and the words free pussy riot scrawled in blood on the wall of the murder scene the middle aged woman and her elderly mother were stabbed dozens of times in cars on police say they were left almost quote beyond recognition authorities are investigating whether the murderer was a supporter of pussy riot three members of course of the notorious russian punk band jailed for two years for hooliganism motivated by religious hatred earlier this month of course it comes out of a station and he put in his stand in the country's main cathedral. why let's go straight into the r.t. world update now or start with afghanistan's president he's remove the country's defense and interior ministers as well as the intelligence chief and this is

a part of a plan cabinet shake up on the eve of elections meanwhile in the south of the country three nato led troops have been killed by an afghan soldier the latest in a series of so-called insider attacks and in a separate incident a helicopter crash killed two international service members in the region. a gas explosion at a coal mine in southwest china has taken the lives of nineteen living more than forty people trapped inside the blast happened wednesday evening while one hundred fifty two miners were in the pit the owners of the mine have already been detained at celta mostly coal mine accidents just like this that have a killed almost two thousand people in china last year it's a place where often safety rules are neglected. a new storm has hit south korea just days after the deadly typhoon battered the korean peninsula the first killed at least eighteen in the country and drove two chinese fishing show. ships ashore crops were severely damaged and almost four thousand trees toppled in north korea

a really fun time you know looking forward to a bulletin soon. orator ever dreamed of taking a lift straight to the moon well after fifty years of space elevator dreams that reality could well be moving a bit closer but the goal is to have people traveled in vehicles attached to ribbons of super strong material to reach orbits of up to one hundred thousand kilometers sounds pretty fantastic as artie's time to explain. as strange as it sounds the idea of a space elevator has been around for decades it was a russian yuri arts' a turn of who in the one nine hundred sixty s. had some of the first modern ideas on it first you would have to send a satellite up into geostationary orbit then a line could be lowered and secured to earth and another one up into space as a counterweight all of this would keep the line tight and allow spacecraft to be loaded up and down it thousands of kilometers an hour at the fraction of the cost of spaceflight it could literally be our lift to the stars and it's not far off as

you might think most of the technology already exists the biggest problem being that cable reaching out into space to make one strong enough to stretch the thirty six thousand kilometers necessary scientists think you'd need a material over thirty mega yury strong that's the measurement named after yuri arts the turn of the strongest material available now is just three point nine but new projects are trying to solve that science problem and make the space elevator a reality they want it to reach the moon the american company live port is raising money for the project and the japanese firm corp aims to have one up and running by two thousand and fifty in the meantime russia is working with ukraine and kazakstan to try and build super size booster rockets for more traditional trips to the moon but who knows by the middle of the century we might have swapped iraq it's for a distant cousin of the humble lift. of the business or the title good to see you again russia is

a gas from has put its giant gas projects stockmen on hold any particular reason for that well absolutely stark when with it and nor less reserves in fact they were enough to meet the global demand for gas for more than a year was gazprom flagship project but now they're noblitt out of partners believe the development costs are way too high considering that gas prices are falling business artie's that output of core has often he tells. the freezing of these arctic. project wants more on discourse how rapidly the global markets are developing nowadays so what was originally intended to ship pipeline gas to europe and liquefied natural gas to the united states by jury in the year as the partners took to negotiate the world saw an influx of new alan g. for all the gulf countries them a shale gas revolution in the united states so the project naturally lost its export markets in addition the cost of these complex offshore projects read very

hard and the three partners found it impossible to even come to an investment decision this summer still some analysts say that the stuff with exit is a positive sign as it signals off more pragmatic commercial thinking by gazprom but russia is not left without its heart attack liquefied natural gas production. to project is already exporting l.n.g. to asia and another russian gas producer not attack by the way together with one of stock months partners the talk is developing a vast elin's you project in the arctic that insula. and have signed on to check out the equity markets and let's go straight to europe where we're seeing a negative picture this hour which is no surprise considering all of the sentiment there namely the german unemployment data that came out a couple of hours ago the unemployment there increased for a fifth straight month in august or though it was

a bit slower than expected and u.s. futures are pointing to a lower opening on wall street in a few hours so not a whole lot of positive drivers there european currencies managing to gain to the dollar the sour rebounding from wednesday's losses of but the russian ruble is shedding value to the currency basket and that here in moscow the equities are feeling the pinch the sour shares of private oil company lukoil. the blue chip bucking the downward trend gaining around a tenth of a percent. and that's all latest from the business desk i'll be back in about fifteen minutes see them go see that. part of the headlines here in just a moment here and then we've got some witness accounts deep from the conflict inside syria see you shortly.

after going down of the song and good morning we will remember that we will. news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images we're seeing from the streets of canada. a giant corporations are rooted a.

few. blocks for joining us here just in time for the headlines of the e.u.'s paymaster heads east germany's chancellor is in china trying to convince beijing the euro currency is still stable enough to invest in the euro zone's fourth largest economy spain desperately tries to avoid asking for yet another bailout. syrian officials are walk out of the nonaligned summit in tehran as egypt's president lashes out at assad's government calling it oppressive the gathering in the iranian capital is made up of one hundred twenty nations who don't consider themselves part of any global power alliance. and the rebel opposition in syria will be wiped out sooner

or later this according to president assad in a t.v. interview about the insurgents seem no weaker as they continue fighting the army bringing further destruction to the war torn country. but right next we have the interview with a woman who lived in syria for twelve years and witnessed what people went through when the first sparks of conflict ignited today's war this is art. well today we're joined by sister agnes mariam of the cross she's founded a christian community and i'm on a street in damascus she's been living there and working there for the last twelve years thank you very much a sister for joining us today my first question is you've been there for twelve years working in damascus in syria around different areas has there been a difference in your work throughout those years and in the recent months that we've seen uprisings and violence of course we have been facing.

reality evolving to get more and more tragic and the democratic. you know it's really in the sand poor health. so for us it was new because we were. put in sort of predation of the smallest petty since one thousand and ninety four when we really. appreciate. the security team in syria you know its security of course which is imposed somehow . by regime which is very strong good and sometimes it kind of. again but nevertheless the reality is that everybody was living in security now we're when the events begin. to raise we were very happy.

because we also wanted felt that the that is a need for a chance but very very quickly. we got bad news. from. witnesses. in our biases and in homs. and also from damascus in daraa. where what to do is the witnesses civilians without any political. positions and you know they were counting on us telling our story as it were exactly the contrary of what we were seeing on the television so we took a position for the objective truth the real information and also for sunday that it is because lonely by scholarly you had

relationships with. a religious entity and our of footy is religious it's not political. it's not even civilian you know we had mainstream reports that came to syria and for in one for a while i went with them on the scene you know but in the january. in december i asked to go to a position where the gideon you were already implemented and so i could have an idea as an eyewitness and in the beginning we did not even know who were sourced people and we said said those people there were only identified. gangs you know who said we don't know who they are but they are spreading. these or
