5:03 am
daily in lines right now that. well in the last few hours just in the beginning of the morning israel said that no one should leave their homes and if they leave their homes they will become a military target of the state of israel so as you can imagine by statements being issued like that by israel and of the last few days we've seen israel leaflets in northern areas of the gaza strip saying we're going to start a ground invasion soon that's happened three times now that lifting exercise that the civilian population here is totally terrorized and they're on able. to continue their normal life at all the same time obviously there's been stockpiling of food and bread and things like this as a result of that there's now a real on the supply of basic things that people rely on for their normal lives business is a totally shut down educational establishments are totally shut down and the humanitarian situation in terms of health is getting grave and grave and grave. journalist feline from. harry many thanks indeed.
5:04 am
they are increasingly indiscriminate killings are seeing any chance of a truce between israel and hamas coro slimmer talks are happening but despite that israel's warning gazans that its rocket fire doesn't stop with the now is they'll be subjected to a ground operation aussies middle east correspondent paula slater has the latest from tel aviv. israel has said that if the cease fire agreement is reached within the next twenty four hours it will go ahead with a ground offensive at a meeting late on monday night the israeli government decided to give cairo more time to try and reach a ceasefire agreement and that is worthwhile for day to day tuesday they will be mediation talks happening in cairo those talks are expected to be decisive at the same time however there are tens of thousands of israeli soldiers who are deployed throughout the make of theirs and they are both regular army soldiers as well as reservists who've been called out so the situation on the ground certainly is tense
5:05 am
the u.n. secretary general ban ki moon will today be meeting with the israeli prime minister netanyahu and the palestinian president mahmoud abbas he has said that any kind of israeli ground offensive well merely the situation most israelis by and large are in support of a ground operation in gaza having said that though there are statements that have been coming out from the israeli army that says that at least a third of the militants in gaza is short range missiles have been destroyed and that they have managed to destroy all the range rockets now this is a sign that israelis are greeting and will cause some israelis to question whether or not a ground in principle the fact is still needed having said that though there is still a lot of rhetoric that is coming from the israeli parliamentarians we've heard from a large sharon who is the son of the former israeli prime minister that gaza needs to be flattened in the same way that hiroshima was we also heard from the transport minister that gaza needs to be bombed so that people they flee to the neighboring
5:06 am
egypt in sinai i mean we've heard other comments that the people of gaza are not innocent that they elected the hamas leadership and all of them are guilty and therefore entitled all deserve all should be on the receiving end of israeli fire of course alongside this there is another battle that's ongoing and as always that is the battle in cyberspace but here the israelis have an unfair advantage it's a sphere that they know well it's a sphere that they've operated in for years have a look. while israeli politicians weigh up whether or not to send their army into gaza they've had no hesitation in morning after a p.r. machine into the social media battlefield for one israeli was killed yesterday in the attack from. my house took a direct hit israeli citizens experience indescribable suffering this video offers a sophisticated alternative to the deadly reality on the ground the growing civilian death toll in gaza at the hands of the i.d.f.
5:07 am
today is a battle that campaign online offline in the electronic media for the hearts and minds of public opinion it's very very important when israelis killed her must lead a homage to barry last week they didn't just kill him they instantly posted this video on you tube and then tweeted a warning to all his comrades that they could be next the ability of the poor longer active duty is also based on how it is being perceived internationally interesting enough this war provides less pictures that for example in the two thousand and eight million war which was taking place in gaza paradoxically it is cynical and it sounds like one of the reasons that there are less specific casualties is because israel would like to see this would have less pictures of the war israel explained its operation and rocket attacks in this way reducing the deaths of more than one hundred civilians to a simplistic and slightly idiotic p.r.
5:08 am
message israeli citizens are reporting rocket alerts on facebook and twitter long before the media and answers them it seems the more p.r. you put into promoting war the more justified it looks in eyes of ordinary people the outcome sumburgh raids militant group in gaza is happy to fight fire with fire posting videos like this one on you tube warning israelis there wherever they are they will be hunted down and killed in this group of arab students from tel aviv university. taking a break from the political science studies to discuss the politics of the media war . israel is lying to its people it is really reporters are inflaming the situation there is a huge incitement from. this israel must demolish gaza even if a rocket hits the target they don't see that. these really need is very rude they said ten people from the same family died but they see that it is legal because they will be hamas members in the future where because there are rockets under the
5:09 am
house the battle in cyberspace is well under way with a twenty four seven back and forth exchange on the likes of twitter between hamas and the israeli defense forces it seems the two sides who haven't yet met face to face on the ground have wasted no time confronting each other online policy r.t. television. paul escaping and out cease fire apparatus as well as on how their president gars is resonating in israel on twitter of course and the target of the u.s. and the sale of tel aviv for that call it from what. they will do you know. how to response to the ongoing violence in gaza an emergency meeting of the security council brought little progress and led to russia to express frustration over the dragging. on offer. first the u.n. security council rejected a draft put forward by morocco for being one sided russia proposed the draft resolution to the un security council it still hasn't made
5:10 am
a decision on that we have heard from moscow's representative to the un voiced outrage that the organization couldn't agree on a statement in fact that it should come as a cue some members of the u.s. security council for dragging their feet he didn't specify which state exactly but he did hint at the uighurs we have heard from the american representative to the e.u. one who said that washington doesn't want to spoil the negotiations clearly going on between the israelis and palestinians in cairo but frankly speaking it's difficult to understand how they could be spoiled since obviously they haven't been very effective so far meanwhile in cambodia russia's foreign minister lavrov has met with u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton and when you saw her office called on board fees release and palestinians to put their weapons down immediately and get to the negotiations deeble at the same time he outlined that moscow is in talks with all sides off this conflict and he's called on everybody else to do the same to give
5:11 am
way for all the possible diplomatic solutions to this in cairo or at the u.n. security council which pretty much reflects the main point of the draft resolution put forward by russia. we are following developments in the middle east conflict and online where we've got a dedicated section for live updates and comment on. this come this hour the formation of sea where is new opposition coalition still fails to get eyes the rebels isn't this point is in aleppo seems to recognize the plot while a growing number of western states see it as representing the syrian people.
5:12 am
on the front in that we are in whales where residents of belong to the by tests of britain's closely craft knowing the machines will assist in remote control plane abroad as a show like. texas wants to pull away from the usa in fact at least twenty states have started petitions for independence after obama won the election with well just a few voting irregularities but guess what suspicion will never happen it is a very easy thing to do decide a petition and it is another thing entirely to leave us a little civil war thing that happened back then does anyone the usa honestly think that they are gov has the ball determination to actual rebel i don't think there is a single george washington type among them well maybe just see for tour
5:13 am
a kind of but he's out of office how do what makes it seem like revolution or succession is this fun cool easy thing to do with cool slogans a texan flag flying but the reality looks a lot more like the arab spring before you put your name on the dotted line as a seed you should really understand what that means and what you're in for the founding fathers sure did but that's just my opinion.

5:15 am
i. i. i. i. i. live from moscow it's good to have you with us as europeans continue to bear the brunt of biting a seriously measures the main financial institutions seems to be splashing out the european central bank is spending a billion dollars building an ambitious double towers clay scraper for its headquarters but as aussies marry within notional reporter so already become a symbol of the ease didn't feature but at
5:16 am
a time when many europeans are unable to pay their mortgages and are kicked out of their homes and spain's forced to approve a suspension of addictions after a woman killed herself in desperation the european central bank is preparing for a house warming party the european treasury symbolic new building will be the tallest on frankford skyline when it's complete but so far it seems the projects faced sky high criticism first of all for its ten digit price tag. we think the project is to shoot you not believe we lost but you see b. to use its money more carefully changing taxpayers entrusted to them. stephen meissner from germany's party of reason doesn't see any reason to spend that much money on a piece of real estate but he says he sees a reasonable explanation of why the sky's the limit for the european union's economic monopoly they never run out of money it's just come to me and the other
5:17 am
taxpayers they go you have to pay more you have to pay more of it more or maybe because it's e.c.b. the european central bank just print the money and while some may see an upside down logic here german m.p. mr scheffler explains it's more than just a piece of architecture. the once a palace of building to demonstrate his power through a million more million less makes no difference to make a statement about its power and credibility but that's a notion that's taken a serious knock in recent times the seventeen nation euro zone's unemployment is at a record high brussels and seized on a stereo to measures which the government's cut spending and raise taxes increase in peoples and as well as euro skepticism here it is future european central bank headquarters here in germany and the building was initially supposed to be a symbol of integrity and competence efficiency and transparency of the e.u. main financial institution but many now gloat that the project that there is
5:18 am
already far behind shadow and over budget may be sending a slightly different message online cynics have compared the bank's future premises with the biblical story of the tower of babel it was meant to reach up to heaven but ended up instead of bend and left as a symbol of hubris and conceit if you look at it it's considered i guess modern architecture sort of looks like sort of like it's been flat and squeezed and turn around and it looks like a medieval sort of collapse on itself so it's kind of maybe a fitting symbol i think it's very possible that the euro itself the currency will even be around by the time. they finish the building look instruction is due for completion by twenty fourteen and it's already known that the president of the e.c.b. will have a room on the forty first floor some say he will not just see a breathtaking c.t. parama he'll also have a bird's eye view of the turbulent ops and downs of his own troubled empire the

e.u. fated eurozone. refn option r.t. germany. and he's kind of reports never misses a chance to take on shady banking and bought into. the newly formed c we're an opposition coalition which has been backed by europe has been rejected by islamist groups a clear schism between those trying to topple the regime the groups in aleppo say they are on their way to building and there isn't a state they coalition was formed this month in replacing the syrian national council which had long been criticized for its ineffectiveness it was immediately supported by gulf states and turkey basically and sons also quick to give it recognition followed by the e.u. that's despite claims that al qaeda and radical islamists have infiltrated rebel forces ali mohamed from the syria tribune says these countries don't know they're dealing with. we don't know this as they don't control anything on the ground and you know there was one of them to be the sort of course of the past which that
5:20 am
might make sense dr after our friends after the vibration as leader of the sort of the syrian people. fucking groups and their leaders. released a video saying that this provision but not because of them that they thought they were fighting until they reached their goal which is an islamic state in syria so i don't think they would be able to prove that program or with the rebels marching on the one flag it was an. important member of the coalition and of the sometimes there is the background supporter of the unity. the brigade that points you know in the same brigade of the rejected the pollution there is something of the very it's really. not clear what its purpose are for the collision at all. in rural west wales there's a noise in the sky that's driving locals crazy but that same sound the elsewhere in
5:21 am
the world is enough to strike fear into citizens. explains all. for victims in tribal regions of pakistan's yemen and afghanistan it's the last sound heard before bloodshed ensues a constant worrying that gets louder before it becomes visible but for residents of the quiet coastal town of abba porth in west wales the sound is synonymous with daily life this is the area where the r.a.f. tests its watch keep a drone from as you can see there's one taking off behind me as we speak in good weather the drones take off throughout the day and during the night and as you can hear the noise is so high pitched and dominating residents have called this area the buzz box. for local people the noise is a great disturbance because and whining noise send they fly over this area
5:22 am
quite regularly the welsh government build it as a state of the art technology park that would create four to five hundred much needed jobs for the community the reality a half deserted site where the ministry of defense employs about thirty people to help test the watch keeper there is a sense of frustration in the area a number of people who were for it in the beginning now opposed to it because they didn't realise the level of nuisance that there was going to be there is behind the development of drones say it means less soldiers come home from war zones in body bags but civilian casualties piling up we know from pakistan that somewhere around two to three thousand people have been killed in drone strikes because of these unmanned systems it's a lot easier to go to war and therefore there will be much more warfare and the world isn't safe the british government has already spent two billion pounds on
5:23 am
development but they're about to. emit another two billion on a new armed drone because it could be better spent it could be spent on hospitals and schools rather than on killing machines despite drastic government cuts on welfare spending financing for the drones isn't up for debate to the dismay of locals the daily testing along with the bloodcurdling noise drones on. our t. west wales. coming out of the gold pun isn't. a break. the legacy no one should be proud of keeps of scrap metal littering pristine arctic

landscape buildings still ting over their foundation pipes black smoke over the snow covered peaks the traces of the soviet industrial activity on the burgen archipelago don't make a pretty picture if the guiding principle here is the worse the better local like to tell the story about back in soviet times where norwegians were visiting barons were they also on the mainland. and how prosperous this settlement was well times have obviously a challenge where they saw it lags they still attracting a region tourists are barons work i would then cons watch native cash that's why when bad they're ruining our goal is common as was uncovered here a few days ago instead of throwing it away the local administration decided to paint the menu and put it at barron's work central square that in the nine hundred eighty s. there was a burgeoning mining community there the soviet union was determined to maintain its

own costs to a degree located halfway between north america and western europe this busy bergen archipelago is part of norway with a special status that allows other countries to set up industrial bases here in the middle of the cold war it served as the use of sars westernmost outpost now it's one of the soviet union's last preserved relics. it is essentially a picture of what would have happened to the soviet union if it was cut off from any financial support for two decades if you're curious western children. i think it could be even more appealing for russian travelers to keep its presence on spitsbergen russia still maintaining a coal mine here but in terms of profit is far behind local server near shops so between married bill it is a big hit the defunct are incurred and still helps keep the money flowing guys it's the russians doing your show but you can't buy the rubbles there on the ground you
