a compliment. participants of the protests though disapproving of the lack of coverage by the turkish media nevertheless believe news outlets have good reason for tuning out when things take a turn for the unexpected actually it's the pressure of the prime minister that is reflected on the media and we think it's unfair other channels the international journalists sharing this information and we have to find out about it on the international tournaments it's unfair to the people but many believe there is a certain responsibility that comes with being a provider of news and those in turkey have failed at it i don't know what will happen in the future but we have only one channel which shows everything in this country it's really really our company says when we cannot stand in for example my mother she lives in a little village if i don't call her she will know nothing with the growing magnitude of protests some of the privately owned channels caught on to the event and tried to make up for lost time when there's one news channel. one new zealand

such as government police officer holds us and shows us that we heard every word without any reason that's we cannot accept that. and it's not just in turkey but online activity could also get you in trouble in britain as well later on here on our report on how you can be arrested for twitter posts in the u.k. as british police turn their attention to abuse posted on social networks. for not the lower house of the u.s. congress has voted against closing guantanamo bay blocking the use of taxpayer money to house any detainees transferred from the prison hunger strike at the

greeted with nothing but sneers. weird start of these nonstop lies a bomb remembers about guantanamo only during election campaigns and on holidays he promised to shut it down several times and to forward their cases to their home countries these are all lies. meanwhile back in one town away itself as the thirty yemeni prisoners wait for the u.s. president's promises to come true the full month long hunger strike against their indefinite detention continues prisoners have been demanding fanaa military doctors to be allowed to treat them nearly forty out of more than one hundred protesters are reportedly being force fed something they claim is torture in itself they are close enough to death that the military sees a need to force feed them none of them enjoy being force fed i can tell you that and they have described being force fed in such terms of having

a knife run down their throat. back in yemen the relatives all say they are going to believe another word from president obama until they see their sons brothers and husbands finally return home that's a love that i know more than this family's case is merely one of several dozen where people can only suffer and cry helplessly inside their homes but hope to ice last. abilities al haig jim the son of yemen. truth. approaching the day. is about to join the. financial.

russia's emergencies ministry for now thousand people had to be evacuated several dozen passengers needed medical attention including one child all due from smoke inhalation rescuers deny rumors that some trains may still be stuck inside the tunnel saying that the evacuation is complete and that trains should resume normal operation in a few hours until they know their movement on this particular measure right wine is limited to three metro stations are still shut down one road in the city center is closed for traffic as well obviously all of this is creating major problems for moscow where it's for thousands of people trying to get either to work or just. happy boy to additional. transport away buses. trucks buses now this fire started at around eight am moscow time and also the morning rush hour inside the tunnel

between the two central metro. it was put out you know around an hour this was you know time for smoke to spread through the tunnels and well it's believed the fire started but what sort of you mean power people. he's got he's going to live in central thank you. british twitter users have to watch what they post social media now being scrutinized by police in a number of investigations offensive or abusive posts and comments of led to arrests across the country i could've just so why would the lower is becoming too zealous about hunting down so-called tweeting trolls. investigates. we trust our officers with a baton we trust some of the c.s. sprit and yet for some reason we can cross a little account in the wake of the recent will it murder a number of arrests were made across the country after police responded to tweets it was the latest clear sign that police are in placing seychelle media in

a way they never have before twitter might be new police territory but their actions tread a fine line already some unfamiliar with the legal ramifications of their tweets the full force of the law was one notable example came after a tweet to footballer james mcclean joining in online anger at the footballers decision not to wear a remembrance day poppy katie aiden look he tweeted he deserves to be shot dead alongside a picture of bullets two weeks later and he was arrested by manchester police do you feel like crossed the line looking back on their. time think of. the consequences they katie's cases since being dropped it's easy to see the cyber threats can cause real fear

and often is deserving of punishment but other cases have ranged from the confusing to the downright ludicrous and figures obtained by artesian steadily rising number of prosecutions in person under the communications act two thousand and three including phone calls emails and social media posts i think the fundamental problem is that there is over policing in that the police or have been recent times far too willing to take seriously or complaints and investigate them instead of using commonsense new guidelines set to be made final by the criminal prosecution service in the coming weeks but with the explosion of social media leaving british law fighting to catch. many in the legal profession a warning that say she'll mediate eases no need to tread very carefully i mean it is very deeply concerning i think the perspective and i guess it would be interesting to see your advice to people that actually even though it's

a case to say some of these things it seems that when it comes to safety media that it is thank you they say well i'm afraid twitter simply isn't the right thing for. me there is facebook and your activities. like never before so. the advice is be extremely tough for. south. london. twelve twenty pm here in the russian capital bradley manning did not hand over classified u.s. documents to wiki leaks with the goal of aiding the enemy a day two of his trial was the testimony of the convicted hacker who actually handed him in iraq see we spoke to jesselyn radack another whistleblower she thinks the government's ultimate goal is to get its hands on the wiki leaks founder julian assange. bradley manning very much is being politically used as a way to try to reach

a songe and there have been rumors of secret indictments on julian of songe here in the united states so the extent that this government has way over charged way over prosecuted and is going after manning. as if he was a devil incarnate speaks volumes to not only making an example out of manning but also the vitriol and contempt that they have against julian assange engine wiki leaks even though bradley manning has testified that he didn't know with whom he was dialoguing on me up there and it could have been a song during anybody had no reason to think that it was a songe and he was and he didn't understand it to be a sign she thought it was someone from wiki leaks i think the government very much wants him to say that he was dialoging with julian assange in order to try to go after julian assigns. bradley manning that's what

a campaign in support of a hounded whistleblower is asking with a list celebrities now offering their support. you can find out who's involved and what befalls stories on. i why you're online at all if you don't check this out as well as in america everything sells even secrets from the israeli military at the u.s. on a veiled every tiny screw of one of its allies top secret facilities on a federal business opportunities website details on that. for now legal experts say pakistan is now in a great position to try and negotiate an end to u.s. drone strikes in tribal areas that's after the high court declared the operations a blatant violation of the country's sovereignty and schumann writes. one of the lawyers representing drone victims against the u.s. he told us about some of the problems with the strikes. president obama often says

that it only kills militant and doesn't kill civilians of but he feels to give names and identities of the wars who have been killed in the use of strikes in pakistan now according to independent sources more than three thousand people have been killed in resist on in pakistan but not a single name has been given by president obama or the c.u. which is occurring or do strikes what we hear from news reports is just a few names of militant leaders who have been killed president obama urged all sure that he is killing militants and he has not killed any civilian than he used to give the names and details of all those militants who he has killed because for the pakistani i would be happy you know assumes that if you have killed all those people who are creating all those are in my cities if you kill all these people who work here let you go probably for your lucian or floor but at least i will be happy that you are making me so you would question here is that who are you killing.

you can watch the entire conversation by tuning in to r.t. at eight hundred forty five g.m.c. . wired to some international headlines now with a world update of a syrian government has regained control of the city of course i am near the lebanese border it's a crucial supply route for both sides of the conflict the area has suffered a fierce battle between rebels and presidential forces over the past two weeks meanwhile the military chief for the syrian opposition has vowed to fight hezbollah militants inside lebanon. and the deadly floods in the shipping lashing central europe are now centered on germany rain continues to cause rivers to bust their banks chancellor angela merkel there was a valid one hundred million euros in aid to the victims in the worst flooding in decades since the weekend the waters of caused at least twelve deaths thousands to flee the levels there in the czech republic have started to fall.

now last year is about to get the green light to become the eighteenth member of the eurozone now it's likely to join the single currency in january next year decade after it joined the e.u. but with europe's economic woes many believe latvia could be jumping aboard a sinking ship kitty pilgrim reports. latvia will be officially swapping their lots to euro's to adopt the single currency i love here reduced its budget deficit to below the e.u. ceiling of three percent of g.d.p. last year which is actually of achievement considering latvia underwent one of europe's toughest or surgery programs after the two thousand and eight crisis actually wiped off a fifth of its g.d.p. so now that the latin economy is back on track will enter the euro zone the rail it's recovery will this take a look at the current members that are actually at risk of exiting the euro zone

now we got slovenia they actually adopted figure in two thousand and four now this is actually the latest country in financial trouble now public debt has more than doubled from twenty two percent of g.d.p. in two thousand and eight to almost fifty five percent in twenty twelve just as a cyprus really the recent banking crisis did little to enrich their economy just sixty six percent of public debt to g.d.p. as for greece right here one hundred eighty nine percent that's actually nearly double of their actual. piece a quite phenomenal relives we actually take a look at a few countries that don't have the year i will be able to see that figure really isn't crucial to having a healthy economy as you can see just they're not bothered to read it so it's probably no wonder looking at the figure out of his urgency is actually being questioned right now. it is hard to hear their monetary policy which is suitable for germany and that means that once the direction of the interest rates changes

from the current very low to the historical averages and they will be your own they're. likely going to suffer a significant contraction term investment for example the issues of slovenia greece cyprus or to go and all the rest of the peripheral europe certainly in terms of the future instability in the euro of low valuations and in terms of the interest rates here. means for countries like korea who have to have certainty in planning in terms of the longer term investments especially infrastructural investments and believe future that will result significant problems and significant course is also another issue that latvia will need to consider now since of favorite cyprus hit the infamous banking crisis of course funds about she been flowing towards latvia actually strengthening the small baltic states position as an offshore banking center but once a country adopts the euro the european ministers were as you have far more control over the countries banking rules and as a consequence dreams of becoming
