you were trying to help. you. and tell or emotional you were trying to do. well we've found she was in the back of the plane in the main in the food a large part of it and so we. know there were four of us it was slippery and we're trying to take it to the road so to me highway. there was blood all over her face there was blood dripping from the mouth of. a king. and of course. that was because of the jet fuel. condition she was in consciousness and she spoke to us and how shocked were you by what was going on. all of us

all of the eyewitnesses there were four of us. if there was a rush of adrenalin our hands were shaking. we were in a shock condition like everyone would be and we can see the shocking photographs pictures that you managed to take of this of this this girl. how badly hurt was she to you think that she same thing at all. yes. she told us to put her down she said but my legs hurt but both of her legs were broken. and she think she she did not feel that her legs. words were not secure late and what were you trying to do where were you trying to take.

we tried to take yours on to the highway we thought there were some ambulances on the sides we wanted to hand her over to the paramedics but there were none of them crews that's why we were holding her and. i was holding the legs. of the other guys were holding her in her lap there was a police car. rides their butts we couldn't fix her inside and we see these pictures of other people around at the time do you know who those people were passers by or. you know. see these were the eyewitnesses there were four or five people with the rest were afraid to come to us because the engine was in fog. of.

a risk to put out the fire for twenty five minutes only four or five people were brave enough to approach the plane and of course there was a risk of explosion we were afraid of that but we stay there and. you talk about the plane and there was a risk as you say of explosion did you go into the plane and try and find other survivors yourself. yes i went down to see you from the highway to the field where the plane was. the first flight attendant she was only on her feet and she asked me to find her friend the other flight attendant and i saw that there was in the fire the engine was on fire and there was a risk of explosion. explode that's why it was quite horrifying puts this

despite there i climbed out of the plane and i was in the seat and that's why i decided that there was a person somewhere around and the first flight attendant christina asked me to find the second flight attendant and fearful for your own safety. of course i was fearful from own safety. first. approach me and i had to see well threw caution to the. of course it was horrifying but i did that. and did you see many other injured people around as well. yes. the first thing i saw was the first woman i saw was the woman the flight descendant of there was blood all over her face. face was mangled that was the first flight

attendant christina this is the second flight attendant then we found with the third man here. problems with his back we put him on the road put him on and put a blanket and soul over. then we saw two pilots blood. but the rest were found by others we only found four people the rest were found by the rescue crews the use special equipment to get inside the cockpit and very tragically we do believe that this girl has died trying to help you mentioned the emergency services there i mean there was so much going on but how quickly they did they arrive and what were they able to do as far as you can tell. rescue crews. with. three to five minutes and fire

rescue. teams arrived to this started to put out the fire and they focused on the for the. on the engine but they did not have any special equipment to break into the cockpit you know in. for about twenty five minutes because of the traffic jam they couldn't get through and there was no helicopter there when the fire rescue teams and have you been feeling since since you saw what he saw which was obviously very shocking scene. but first i was shocked because i couldn't believe my eyes. my senses i got back to my senses and then i just realized i have to do something of course someone. trying to get bad because they were afraid but i ran.

to the side of the of the crash i don't know why. thank you very much for joining us here in what was very traumatic experience for you i'm sure thank you. well as we mentioned the crash has now claimed the lives of five people who were on board there are three are still in a critical condition now investigators are trying to fathom why the triple offered to it for a relatively new type of aircraft which had never previously been involved in a crash overshot the runway but in a culture joins us from the crash site now but you know what's going on now are investigators saying anything about what may have caused it. well as you can see behind my back the biggest and the only part of the plane that still lies a very closer to the highway is now covered with toppling to hide it from public

view as well as so to protect it what's left of the plane for further investigation and now the cabins of the plane as well as the black boxes have already been cleared and the investigation is in full swing so far there are three main versions of why this tragedy happened and this diversions are weather conditions pilot error and possible talking in code problems with the plane as there were reports of gods of there might have been something wrong with the plane's braking system that's why it couldn't stop while being on the runway earlier at the height of rush hour be ation said that the crew on board of this plane was very experienced and he announced that right when first reports appeared dogs are the main cause of this crash might have been pilot error meanwhile this pos injured jobs crashed after a second landing in town it rolled out of the runway domination of the highways

bearer and pretty crashed on the road and of the investigation now examines the data on the black boxes trying to find a reason why this incident happened. ok we're going to call travel reporting. where the red wings to came down late saturday afternoon thank you for that update . or more pictures and eyewitness accounts from the scene on our website where you can also find out more about the plane itself that's a dot com. other news now from new year's day the adoption of a russian children by u.s. citizens will no longer be possible of the president putin signed the measure into law it's a tit for tat response to america's sanctions against russian officials which it sees as human rights violators. has more on the diplomatic spat. you have to understand that the law the so-called denton magnitsky law actually deals primarily

a with imposing travel and financial strictures on the number of american officials and persons who have committed crimes against russian citizens and only only part of the law actually bans the adoption of russian children by american citizens it has been in part inspired by the case of a russian toddler who was adopted by the american family in two thousand and nine and died in their custody several months later after his father left him in a locked in the car in the blistering heat for nine hours the russian lawmakers feel that the american law system does not provide adequate adequate protection for the russian kids and also does not punish those responsible for the deaths of russian kids for example do you activists father adoptive father walked away with a fine but you have to remember that russia is going to boost the care and the situation with orphanages and foster homes in the country as well as improve the further condition so for orphans it is seen as a sort of retaliate of measure towards this so-called magnitsky act which was

adopted in the united states just a couple of weeks ago. which entails a list of russian officials whom the united states believed to be involved in the case. and now the act itself. puts a severe restrictions on the travel and freezes financial assets of the russian officials in question now the case of the game against. involved the russian lawyer who was arrested on tax evasion charges and died while the for limiter of confinement but again these two acts are seen as the latest developments in the diplomatic row which seems to not to get any better between russia and the united states despite the whole affair with the reset button. for world news on the way including iran rolling out the big guns in the persian gulf there. and undertakes a massive maybe drills in the strategic strait of hormuz to show the world what

it's got in trouble comes calling. us all to look back at twenty twelve and how it was for the world's most famous whistleblower went from house arrest to saddam's secret more after the break. i never thought i could earn a living messmate. natale a show of oil as a lawyer should test small arms of the sort i was to machine building plant not obvious sourced count of all the weapons just fired over the past twelve years when i got so used to it sometimes my friends ask me to join them at the rifle range and i say no way i'm so tired of shooting. the clowns history goes from making firearms during world war two to ballistic missiles from nuclear submarines during the cold war the bulk of the soviet industry was moved here in the 1940's to flee the

advancing germans so if you were also became the heart of soviet military production closed off to foreigners for half a century it thrived on the massive moods of the soviet military when the u.s.s.r. collapsed the life here was shaken to the core but some adapted to better than others. this is the year old truck factory brushes number one of the truck made for gravel look at how well the workplace is organized everything's done to make sure the workers don't waste time waiting there was old production is booming the factory has largely managed to get on to civil whales these johnsons sold around the globe payables a brand new be the way to be delivered to a client for seventy trucks like this one roll up the bronx conveyor belt every day look at about this things that absolutely huge. well i'm no

formula one pilot but hopefully if i can get that. well i think the fight to try. was. to get one of these to travel to whatever in the morning let's with the cost of about forty thousand dollars i should start saving money. here watching artie's weekly news review i'm carrie johnston egypt's president mercy has made in the attempt to ease political tensions in the country calling on the opposition to engage in dialogue but it's offered was met with skepticism since it came shortly after the launch of the investigation into his three top opponents the chief prosecutor is citing allegations that opposition leaders including nobel

prize winner mohamed el baradei incited their supporters to topple mercy earlier this week it was announced the divisive new constitution was approved by over sixty percent of egyptians in a two stage referendum opposition that claims that islamist draft a document in shrines shari'a law only got a yes vote because of fraud when they were clark a world affairs contributor for britain's guardian newspaper explain to us why mercy doesn't feel secure even after winning the referendum. i think he wants to sort of deflect attention from the economy because the underlying problem create the biggest we're facing is the economic crisis one of four egyptians are without jobs poverty is on the rise and the subsidies on fuel which means that the prices of gas and electricity are going to rocket and so this is a kind of a sort of smokescreen and he i think each break in to get tied up in these are the legal challenges to the stop them from focusing on opposing him on the issues where he's he's very weak and i think also he be worried that you know

a sizable minority thirty six over thirty. percent of people voted against the constitution. to be that. is on the way. and i think that obviously you know i think we can see more protests in a year. where gun sales in the u.s. have rocketed after president obama pledged to ban certain types of automatic weapons in the wake of the sandy hook massacre what is going to chicken on the panic buying public getting armed while they still can. about two weeks ago actually on this particular wall here. we are is four rows down four rows across. with everything going on in politics right now with the possible there and everything everyone is flooding in. purchasing right away gun stores all across the u.s. are reporting record sales just two weeks after the tragic shooting at the elementary school in newtown americans are scrambling to buy the same type of

weapon that adam lanza used in the connecticut shooting plus high capacity magazines and a lot of them panic buying trigger it out of fear that the white house is out to ban the weapons but this time the words need to lead to action no a r fifteen for this customer all sold out at the store while prices on line have gone through the rules have been going for a thousand and fifteen hundred eight hundred dollars to twenty five hundred three thousand dollars even in some cases it's just the most amazing gun buying spree i've ever seen so many gun retailers now quite cynically refer to thieve ministrations ben talk as the obama gun stimulus that's how good it's been for their business so how do you go from a president with a tough gun control agenda to someone gun dealers call the greatest gun salesman in america manufacturers of semi-automatic rifles were poured that their market has grown thirty percent over the last four years states like north carolina iowa you

have seen a one hundred percent increase in gun sales over the same period in the wake of the tragedy in newtown one of the country's biggest ammunition suppliers said they sold more than three years worth of magazines in just three days although president obama himself has so far failed to act on his pledge to ban assault weapons his words have certainly provoked action just not the type you may have wanted or someone they say is against. doing a great job for us. really should be a third term in order to sell even more weapons many dealers hype up gone apocalypse an aerial for the band. the moment. the star. started. but many of them don't actually see any drastic changes happening any time soon after all and it's significant gun control measures an update in the past

ultimately clashed with the second amendment of the constitution and were subsequently scrapped. were junior tennis chicken. but for some american communities a gun violence is part of everyday life as you'll see it fifteen thirty g.m.t. it's often down to the colors being worn which decide who becomes a victim. well the end of the year in iran is being marked by massive naval drills held in the strait of hormuz one of the world's busiest oil shipping routes or ships submarines and jet fighters are taking part with the aim of proving tehran is well equipped to defend its maritime borders the maneuvers come as the west builds up pressure of iran's nuclear program putting on sanctions against the country tehran want a few months ago that it could block the strait but its naval commanders say that's not on the agenda now versus side one hundred morandi from tehran university explained why the iranians don't think there's a danger of

a military confrontation in the future. western countries are brutal and civilized enough to carry out an attack i think that that's clear to run into the fact that western countries are imposing sanctions and embargo on it on iran they are trying to prevent iran from even importing and exporting medicine and food stuff by blocking the central bank and there are shortages of some medicines right now in iran and people have died so the fact that western countries are willing to kill ordinary people and to make people suffer i think makes it clear that the idea of carrying out an attack on iran is something that they would contemplate if they could but i think on the other hand the iranians believe that western countries are much weaker today than they ever were before the defeat in iraq and afghanistan the setbacks in. that israel had in lebanon in gaza make as well the economic

crisis in europe in north america make it highly unlikely but the iranians have prepared themselves and i think that it has been a to turn to war so the i think in general the iranians feel that a military assault on iran aggression would be highly unlikely well look now at some of today's international east. government protests near the west in iraq. has left two people wounded it's thought the bodyguards of a sunni official fired the shots more than a recall rallies which have seen sunni muslims protest against what they see a second class treatment from the shia led government egypt has allowed a shipment of construction materials to enter gaza from it. as a first easing of restrictions since two thousand and seven since the militant group hamas came to power in gaza egypt had been following israel's import locate a palestinian official say israel is also promising the building materials would be allowed into gaza only seventy percent of young players commercial cordon bleu to

through israel. the launch of a ground breaking exclusive show hosted by the world's top whistleblower to the sun has become one of the key events that shaped the year for r.t. the program was recorded while the wiki leaks founder was under house arrest in britain and gave voice to some of the most prominent public figures shunned by the mainstream media. it was right on the new year's eve when i went to london to see june and to discuss the news so. i'm julian assange. it is true when she wakes exposed the world secret police documents from the very

beginning when it became the in high profile shows a strong with a lot of it as a boss or so we created this web page with the big video player and video feeds containing trailers teasers sneak peeks most shows tend to have a spike and then go down to both morgue itself online and you with your kids climbing in quite a quite a study about i think will be viewed in historical terms that this was quite an important piece here is the julian assange show gains over a one million visits and views online and believe me or an interesting news show it's kind of an achievement never before thought we had anything like that on t.v. when one person sitting around the house around would give voice to quiet by the few people around the world whose position of the world doesn't fit in the mainstream you to picture.
