breaking news unnamed israeli officials confirm an asse strike on syria is the second such a incidents and. while we were in opposition has accused the regime of carrying out a massacre the claims coinciding with mission to the announcement it's not openly considering arming the rebels. also this hour the u.k. independence policy makes a breakthrough in local elections and sets its sights on parliament with the conservatives already have a meeting they now have to win by voters lost to the anti you and. this is coming to you live from moscow hello and welcome to the program and we'll

stop with our breaking news story this hour i know most israeli officials have confirmed to the country house bill and syria they say israeli warplanes struck a shipment of advanced missiles heading for lebanon is the second such a strike in less than five months she's made news correspondent point to see the latest from weezer own now. the official is speaking on condition of being anonymous because he is not also wise to speak about a secret israeli military operation we had r.t. has been in touch with the israeli foreign ministry but as of yet they are not prepared to publicly consume at least not to us that such a strike indeed was carried out by the israelis what is interesting is that the strike happened late thursday into the early hours of friday morning and at that same time the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu called for a late night emergency cabinet meeting now we don't have information as to what was exactly the purpose of the goal of that meeting but it certainly does raise on val's the lebanese are complaining that israel has violated billy's is facing that

israel does do this on numerous occasions and has been doing it recently with quite a bit of consistency as well in the past has said that it will pull out all the stops to make sure that there is no transfer of weapons to his been of course the israeli concern is that hizbollah would use any kind of weapons against the jewish state the second time this year that israel has carried out a strike inside syria you remember the first was back in january when israeli fighter jets targeted a sophisticated convoy of missiles that israel believed were on their way to hizbollah israel and syria share a common border you have the disputed golan heights which israel occupied from syria back in one nine hundred sixty seven and in recent weeks we've witnessed a flare up in violence and intentions along that border. there's been no official comment from damascus on the israeli bombing run which is some have

taken place on thursday night and the syrian journalist xeni it says it's too early to make conclusions based on unconfirmed statements by an enormous israeli source. it has been more than forty five forty eight hours from. such a big attack should have been known to target should have been destroyed everybody everybody could have talked about it up to now we have no information and the government given inside according to look contact did not mention anything about it because there is no official visit is nothing happening on the ground to confirm that there is an attack or none so there are a lot of missing points there are contradictions somewhere it's a kind of propaganda to suggest that they are there to suggest that israel is attacking something up to now there's no confirmed news there's nothing in our side . and how and contributing editor for the us think tank foreign policy in focus believes it's unlikely the syrian government would have risked provoking and his

ring at. i think the idea that the syrian government would be shipping arms to has below in the midst of a civil war or to be a very dubious kind of project i don't i don't see what the logic of that is i think the israelis are intervening it just quietly us as is thinking of intervening because they don't think things are going. exactly the way that the insurgency wants them to go to israel he's can pretty much a strike as they will in syria what the effect of that is on the wider arab world i think is the key question here and the israelis may find that while they're able to basically strike it will again syria that also means that it places

a very different view so to speak of the civil war in syria and i think at this point the syrians are going to not going to do anything physically but i think they are going to say politically that the israelis are attempting to overthrow the assad government and therefore anybody who supports the overthrow of the also the government is in alignment with tel aviv and that may be a pretty hard sell for israel. while clashes between government forces and insurgents rage across syria the opposition has accused the regime of a genocidal massacre it's claimed at least fifty civilians were brutally killed during an assault on a village and there find graphic footage that's coming out now that shows mutilated victims that damascus has always been quick to place the blame for previous atrocities on the armed opposition many members are which are radical jihad it's this latest massacre claim follows the u.s. announcement that aiming their rebels on in the rebels is now being openly

considered syrian journalist ali mohamed says allegations by the opposition always coincide with fresh foreign pressure because. the opponents of the syrian regime can accuse it of many things but being stupid is not one of these things in the if you take a lot of stupidity the time be the massacre is in do coalitions with the public in graphic coalitions of human rights right before big decisions are being made each time and you put into events you go to syria was happening within the un security council or any other entity and each and every time there was there were talks about must first and then to believe that human rights in this this is beyond being by chance again i do believe that this is the size and the timing is very suspicious buying more weapons mean more messages because they were concerned the news about massacres nonsense committed by the rebels in the this does not seem to bother the need to meetings on the u. s.

so giving more weapons means more the people and more of the people does not in any we mean something good for the country russia strongly opposes arming the rebels as it continues to seek ways to mediate a diplomatic solution to the conflicts and unlike the west moscow remains committed to negotiating with all signs in syria as the russian foreign minister a to return friday. let us go off of syria we're open for talks with all syrian opposition members by think a way to stop the violence won't be found in moscow or any other foreign capital only in direct talks between the opposition and the syrian government arming non-governmental players violates international law it's not the time to pour oil on the fire of the syrian conflict for all outside players is time to push all parties syrian government and various opposition groups political and military and force them to announce a cease fire and sit down for talks arming the syrian rebels is betting on

a military solution and not a political settlement. you're watching all sea life from moscow still ahead for you this song controversial career odds doubloons a role in drone training programs being offered at hugh us universities despite huge debate of the privacy violations and no full killings by the unmanned aircraft the details just ahead.

a college near you at least three u.s. schools offer bachelor degrees in engineering and flying these dozens more offer drone one zero one courses and. the university of north dakota kicked off its four year program in two thousand and nine with just five students that number is now at one hundred twenty they've elected to bridge or unmanned aircraft systems and i believe the reason is that they see that as an opportunity for growth it's an emerging technology embry riddle aeronautical university in florida began training u.a.b. pilots and operators in two thousand and eleven and expects the number of graduates to reach the hundreds in the next several years it's becoming more and they use are becoming more prevalent in pretty much any time region you can imagine the increased interest in the drone industry is largely fueled by post-grad starting salaries that are much higher than those for pilots flying planes or helicopters were an economy that's has. recovered ok so people see opportunities for jobs

wherever there's money to be had of course but the problem is that universities are supposed to do something more than serve the military industrial complex. to widespread debate drones are notoriously used as weapons and u.s. wars abroad the one that's under heavy scrutiny right now is that i'm an aircraft in the past been used by the military there for the logical leap is that i'm an aircraft we use militaristically in the united states the federal aviation administration says that ten thousand commercial drones could be used over u.s. skies within five years for surveillance and other purposes while controversy surrounding them is that a piece how dare they even talk about drones on a domestic i think there are many many cities in the country that have already got rights to use these drones and they will be using them so without laws that protect our privacy we don't know how they're going to be used most people teaching and studying to programs insist their use is much more varied than for military

purposes abroad and surveillance at home i think. where that when need be an issue at all border security meteorological and environmental surveillance such as sending a drone into a hurricane without having to worry about the pilots are among the applications most commonly praised and you use still the most common association with drones at home is law enforcement and it's this aspect that's making americans very uncomfortable obviously there's going to be some regulations that are going to have to you know be put in place so that people don't run around or at least you know police or whoever doesn't just have the ability to run around and you know go unchecked looking at you know having a ever watchful eye over the public but i don't think that will it will be a deterrent more so it'll be a challenge to make sure that you know people are. happy with the implementation of their graft into the national airspace system officials are yet to convince americans that there are more pros than cons to drones flying over u.s.

soil it's time to say wait a minute hold up let's not move forward in this area without understanding where we're going and that's the problem here that's the danger of these association for unmanned vehicle systems international estimates the number of american jobs in the industry will grow to over twenty three thousand over the next fifteen years. and. the funerals have been held in iraq for those killed in a bomb blast at a sunni mosque north of baghdad on friday a total of seven people lost their lives and at least says here others were wounded the country's seeing some well it's was to violence in almost five years with the u.n. claiming more than seven hundred were killed last month alone many fear sectarian divisions and the instability of authorities to maintain order could send the nation back into full scale conflicts iraq as soon as complain they're being marginalized by the shi'ite led government at the since u.s. troops toppled saddam hussein. reportedly flooding the country from

a few hundred last year to about two thousand now some of the rocky leaders say if the state slides into civil rule it will be worse than syria and defense analyst i've been even to believe centralized who won't ever work for such disparate groups . we have no sectarian tensions which have been there since the. since decades but were unleashed when the us invaded in two thousand and three and of course played out in two thousand and six and two thousand and seven where you had sectarian warfare between the sunni i think there's probably going to be an escalating conflict in iraq the kurds used to side with the shia government but i am not sure that they would anymore because they have a lot of disputes with the government now that they didn't have before as you have plenty of guns that. the u.s. bribed the sudanese to quit attacking the united states troops when they were there and so that all these guns are left over so essentially the us. during attack

a patient is armed all three groups there that the government has always been used by one group to oppress the other groups and therefore a strong central government which the us left is a bad thing i think i think what should happen is decentralization what different groups run different regions with security and judiciary and maybe have a free trade area like a can fairly loose confederation and these countries wide keep it stable yes a recession i understand in greece have seen ever virus to the brain drain in the country with scores of people being chased out from the mix it is by the high cost of living and unemployment rate's don't bottle spoke to some of them to learn the glances greener in the greek countryside. the young man on the sea theodorus is in his forty's but what he used to make his living at a newspaper in greece is second city to saloniki he's now returned to his roots on

the northern greek coast this is theodorus is fresh fish shop he took it over when his uncle retired two years ago and now theodorus is making a go of it himself far away from the big city his decision is part of the trend greeks unable to make ends meet in the cities looking to areas with small recolonise costs. the company i work for cut all salaries so i decided to come here to find a better life for my children and me. it cost us also gave up a life in athens to open a guest house in the hills of northern greece the life of a city advertising manager was good he says but people should think before writing off the world outside. and that there you go there are many opportunities for you to make your life better in a small town rather than in athens. and a potential reverse brain drain from cities back to the regions could hold hidden benefits being educated and hip in the experience of keeping work in the areas

and all the experience of the money gives living in the city lives i mean these are these people be. my pill to do the countryside to develop not that everyone relishes the prospect demetrius moved away when he was eighteen and is now a freshly out of work t.v. director he finds adjusting to life back here difficult he wanted to stay in the capital. i was forced to come back here because of the high rates of unemployment in athens it was a matter of survival for me for these three greeks as for increasing multitudes of others this move choice or not is a path away from unsustainable living in cities hit by economic crisis here at least if they have little else new arrivals or old home camas have the scenery and the sea tom bottom r.t. . and in our world of days for you this hour the portuguese government has

announced plans to cut thirty thousand public sector jobs in a bid to meet the terms or an e.u. bailout are those stars the measures aimed at saving four point eight billion euros by twenty fifteen will include extending both the retirement age and working hours for schools economy has been battered by a three consecutive years of recession and record high unemployment at nearly eighteen percent. nearly three hundred people have been forced to evacuate their homes in northern belgium after a train carrying chemicals deal railed and burst into flames led to a series of explosions in the rail cause no injuries have been reported however trainings in the area have been suspended. in the libyan capital crowds of anti militia protesters have clashed with demonstrators who have been calling for. officials to be thrown out of the government last week gunmen besieged the foreign and justice ministries in tripoli demanding a little purging x.

members of the ousted regime the tension is yet another sign of the growing instability that threatens to leave its first elected of forces since the overthrow of mama khadafi in the arab spring uprising. the u.k. independence party has made a major breakthrough in local elections claiming one in every votes caused the conservatives which are part of the ruling coalition as we now have admitted all mainstream parties have major lessons to learn from the group seeking the country's troll from the e.u. point of boko has more now. it's been a momentous day for the u.k. independence party we've seen them come seconds in the south shields by election just behind labor and that's significant because we see a pattern emerging the past six months have seen you can't come second in full by elections some of the more we've had stunning council election results we've seen the ruling coalition parties the liberal democrats and the conservatives third

sustain major losses in terms of council seats it's really you can't that have come out on top now this is a party that's been seen by many as the protest vote party the people a very keen for them if they feel too frustrated with labor conservatives liberal democrats the traditional status quo political parties but i think that a lot of people are going to have to be taking them a lot more seriously now and then a lot of people didn't take them very seriously just a few days ago the a senior conservative member called them clowns say they might have to have every think about that we're going to have you keep councillors across england and wales the conservative party chairman has said that clearly the tories are failed to get their message across and they're going to have to have a rethink about how they can change that now i'm joined by the city spokesman for the u.k. independence party stephen wolf stephen chances are all well and good but they're

not m.p.'s have as ukip actually made significant gains today yes we what we have done is created a seismic shift in politics in the united kingdom we have put a message down to the three political parties that there is a fool for all to hear on the block we're knocking on the door of parliament for years they have criticised us and said that we're a small party i'm not worth voting for but you could be seen as the protest vote is that enough to make games in a general election well it's a protest vote for the political elites if you want to put it in those terms they ignored us in the past and said they'd never want. to listen to us because we were a war party want to shoot policy and then they said we're just a one person party if we've got significant second places across the country from eastlink to social is a protest that is the point so the process that i want and i want to see is expand ourselves with every political party has to put down a mountain of saying here's our policies come on come on have a go and tell us whether you like them or not that is quite right and we're ready

to do that we're going to have to work them on the list we're going to have to show that we can afford it in a time of austerity but i believe the ones we such on the policy how we're going to pay for it and we've got the right people to actually deliver it we're going to be moving forward at an even greater speed than you see today stephen will fifty spokesman for the u.k. independence party thank you very much for your comments although you have it was a seismic shift taking place in british politics david cameron's already said that he's going to have to work very hard to try and win back the support will there is that a very tit for you can't say for the past two days. i was coming your way is the world of striking d.c. and bristle composition it's blood sweat and ballet and just a couple of minutes. in
