i. protested showed the door to the prime minister of the crackdown by police who unleashed to gas pepper spray and battle of indians. after a short circuit and a blaze traffic in the capital for at least sixty six people injured. and think before you tweet especially if you're in britain with police of people behind bars for crossing the line with their social media post the top stories this hour.

on screen online international news and comment live from moscow this is o.t. with the twenty four us a day. fatalities been confirmed in the turkish unrest a man who received head injuries during clashes in ankara has died in hospital protesters are ramping up calls for the resignation of prime minister erdogan over a brutal police crackdown on demonstrations that's left thousands injured out of one's deputy has said sorry for the initial excessive use of force but people want a personal apology from the premier himself police more tear gas and water cannons on demonstrators. overnight a number of homes were reportedly raided by offices dozens of you arrests have been made and some activists were even taken in for inciting protests on twitter. out of the country working visit branded the demonstrators as extremists and. media has also relished public fury by turning a blind eye to the rest. of. the revolution will not be televised that is

according to graffiti spray painted all over istanbul and indeed the protests have gone largely unnoticed by the state media here in turkey however people did have the last word by destroying the satellite trucks of local state media channels if not to prove a point then at least to vent out their anger and frustration at the media that did not cover the events at home pepper spray water cannons tear gas all hell was breaking loose in taksim with police trying to evict environmentalists and their supporters from the park last weekend but when turkish audiences flipped on their t.v.'s they saw something entirely different. from c.n.n. and. you guessed the poll is the people and take c.n.n. turk there was a commentary. it's. produce

a print of the protests 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 international channels sharing this information and we have to find out about it on the internet and also 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 it cannot stand in for example my mother she lives in a little village if i don't call her she will know nothing but the growing magnitude of protests some of the privately owned channels caught on to the event and tried to make up for lost time i think there's one news channel. that paper story they made

a mistake covering. covering it. well but to the boss the state media is not. saying that it's. misguided. by some extreme. groups a far fetched stance it may be but those on taksim just as thousands of people on streets and squares all over turkey don't really seem to care anymore they don't need a t.v. broadcast to show them what's really happening where they are. r.t. istanbul. activists are using social media to spread fresh footage of police brutality like this video reportedly showing a civilian kicked to the ground and then stoned told by several offices despite pleading for mercy all these video agency ruptly has been on top of the latest developments in the turkish capital providing exclusive footage and interviews one person they spoke with a local baker says he was randomly talked to by police despite having nothing to do

with the protest. i went out to buy the cigarettes the police didn't ask me anything they just beat me. demonstrators are now demanding a ban on tear gas in the country the excessive use of force by police has also drawn sharp criticism from human rights groups and some foreign officials including the u.s. secretary of state but most of the tear gas and pepper spray being used on the streets of turkey was in fact made in america and chris imported six hundred twenty eight tons of crowd control chemicals over the past dozen years many now has fifty times more than before and u.s. firms have also been selling gas to other countries where brutal police crackdowns have made headlines like egypt and bahrain ortiz very important reports on who is cashing in on the tears. for six days the world has seen video and images of turkish police cracking down on thousands of anti-government protesters and want an

arm activists of all ages have been targeted indiscriminately with tear gas and pepper spray critics say that behind closed doors the united states has long played a major long role in the aiding vocalise brutality that is currently unfolding in turkey he according to reports turkey has bought twenty one million dollars worth of tear gas and pepper spray in the past twelve years and the united states is listed as a main provider to the us is one of the world's largest manufacturers and exporters of tear gas and whether sold or given tear gas shipments from the united states to anywhere in the world must be approved by the u.s. government the three big american tear gas manufacturers nonlethal technologies defense technology and combined systems inc have reportedly exported tear gas to dozens of nations rocked by widespread protests including egypt bahrain tunisia and

yemen and now as the uprisings in turkey grow more dangerous by the day dozens of activists have taken to the streets in new york city rallies across from the turkish consulate to condemn what they call the government's brutal and deplorable use of tear gas against its own citizens they are not zeus for protesting are and are pro cycling are humans very not no use for destroying are humans who just askin for their regions treated last speech the problem is that they're using food that expired since two thousand for their pictures of it there's evidence of that is a problem every day they're using gerson worse worse and worse chemicals american activists also know what it feels like to be targeted with so-called crowd control technology tear gas. canisters were widely used against protesters participating in the occupy wall street movement and experts say that the corporations manufacturing

those technologies are profiting at home and abroad by assisting governments around the world that aim to repress freedom of speech and democratic movements from new york marina knight r.t. . united can take in was one of those tear gassed by police in ankara but he's vowed to be back out on the streets with the demonstrators standing up for freedom and democracy by ending one of two mosques that has been exposed by did gas and water cannon it reduced my weakness and caused crying and sneezing and since i had asked a month during the event i had multiple severe assem x.x. and i can say that may improve booker is police and government your tired of schooling government what if. we don't have any. tax scheme this matter has become a matter of more than just the bunch of trees this is

a protest against ignoring can tell they get hurt its own people they cannot scare us we do not do any harm to anyone or anything. but however provokers such as government and police officer holds us and shows us that we heard everywhere without any reason thats we cannot accept that so get reaction now from middle east expert manual oxen writer. manual approach this is growing in numbers more trade unions joy and we've seen some signs of reconciliation from the government so does that perhaps mean that the protests is now being listened to. i think this new or it's already off the turkish government is not so much a threat to the demonstrated through the international community it has to do with this international community now a lot of attention on the protests especially in the stumbling but it doesn't have so much to do with the demonstrate this so we can say this because these

demonstrations we with this now are not very new with the new ones and with ration since a couple of days to take states now in the stumbling block they are going on demonstrations in turkey and months right now especially in the fall services and when it is about the turkish politics towards syria the rest of turkish politics against syria there were many many demonstrations and protests but without western media coverage and without western politicians attention so you see i think this year it's already this addressed to the european union to us through the western population but not so much to their own demonstrators just explain briefly why people on happy with the foreign policy of government towards jimmy what will surprise them. well the general problem it's about this politics that it doesn't just put danger and aggression in syria it also puts danger and aggression against its own citizens we

had our own a couple of weeks ago a horrible bump of pick on the turkish city in the province of ha so i feel with the syrian border which was committed by you slimmest mind you some of this fighting group with connections to a lot of hideout what we know now. what's going flowing evolve inviting international mercenaries terrorist jihadi soon from criminals to turkey themselves as they are and and and military training and military bases and safe heaven if you want to say it like this and send them to syria to fight their. this is a problem because these people are now in the cities and the troops of course took a citizen with them trading again but there was no media coverage about those protests so there was no nice referral rates to arts is that when citizens of the politics of the politics of what's going on like to note that there have been

widespread reports of course of excessive use of force including to gas but officials claim police are only taking action when they are provoked so does that mean already extremist elements within the ranks of the protesters something that of course the prime minister is claiming. well i think there's something very moment when somewhere which demonstration ever they are in europe in turkey in us wherever you will have also violent extremists among the demonstrators out around grass is something else you're not seeing there are extremists among the demonstrators naming the groups supporting the demonstrations the feeding extremists these things or the officials are saying yes these are national news calling in this fashion even i heard that expression so they are putting the blame on on the the protests itself they don't say that there are some this is a groups of violent groups some on it and the problem is that when we see on the reaction for example in the european union where. it's. very

much the last if you look how you want to welcome in the years and how we evolve. how it evolves invited for for negotiations of all that you membership for thirty from knowing his expression they are also saying yes we have to be very very successful and we see the civil society on the one time but also in the extremists so this is a point which can become a problem just briefly we talked about the connection with what's happening in syria but interesting enough what we saw in syria a couple of years ago with all those protests and leading to what we're seeing now . is that in effect what's happening in turkey could we see a similar scenario was talking very different in that just briefly this isn't what we read just compare but i don't think we can compare it to your start crying days after friday prayers for most radical sunni mosque after the preacher so it was

never a popular uprising or so it was presented in western media what we see now in turkey something else we see that there are very sort of civil society popular groups and it is it appears the initial is not right well you will never find pictures from syria from two thousand and eleven when the so-called right started so many people on the streets as you see today from turkey. from germany middle east expert many looks in russia thank you very much indeed for being with us here on aunty. well coming up here this indefinite detention shutdown denied the u.s. congress stories another hurdle for ships to close guantanamo bay where prisoners have been striking for the balls for months all that's in a moment plus all the stories we'll be right that.

i. believe speaks the language. programs and documentaries in arabic it's all here on. in from the world talks about six of the c.r.p. interviews intriguing story for you to. slip in trying. to find out visit.

at the peak of the morning rush hour on the moscow metro has sixty six people needing medical treatment seventeen of those had to be taken to hospital the details now from an off. movement of train says now been busy doing moscow's much although we did take several hours to fix that faulty power cable for now thousand people have been there vacuum waited in total over sixty passengers in need of medical assistance including one six year old boy most of the injuries are connected with smoke inhalation and three people are being treated in intensive care units now it all started to round eight school time the study keep going the morning rush hour when the metro is used by hundreds of thousands of people and this is exactly the time when the first main power people short circuited inside

a tunnel linking to the central metro stations this is one of the bodies had to suspend the movement of trains for the first time and started evacuating people. it didn't take them much two hours to fix that cable and shortly after we received the movement of trains then a short circuit again at the same exact spot but thankfully that time there were no passengers in the train so we were quickly able to drop all the fix-it and resume operations but needless to say the metro in moscow is of the most heavily used to rapid transportation system in the world after the ones in tokyo and even or authorities deployed additional buses and trolley buses tens of thousands of moscow whites if not more had massive problems getting to work or to school this wednesday . and extreme opinions sometimes leads to an offensive tweet which could these days land you in jail that's increasingly the situation in great britain where social

media users have to watch what they post online abusive comments from the to rest of the country and activists worry the law is becoming too zealous about hunting down tweeting trolls or investigates. we trust our officers with a baton we trust some of the c.i. sprit and yet for some reason we can't trust some of the twitter 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 felt the full force lol 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 you crossed the line looking back on their. time i think i thought i was 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 r.t. show a steadily rising number of prosecutions in person under the communications act two thousand and three including phone calls emails and social media posts within the police service and with another public sectors but it really is more about leadership than technology the technology needs to change absolutely fundamentally

one needs to change is the attitude that leaders have towards social media many see as a huge risk what they feel to recognise is the fantastic opportunities and to really display the great skills great problem solving skill. in a great leveller service 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 little fighting to catch up many in the legal profession a warning that social media eases now need to tread very carefully i mean it is very deeply concerning i think legal perspective and i guess it would be interesting to see your advice to people that actually even though it's a case of say some of the say good things when it comes to say show me that it is such a bad thing they say well i'm afraid twitter simply isn't an option for. me there is face book and your activities. that's never been before so.

the advice to be extremely tough for. sarah. london syrian peace conference has been postponed until next month top diplomats have been meeting in geneva to push the country's government and the opposition to come to the negotiation table their own going bloody war is getting more drawn out costing dozens of lives daily explains what is hindering the talks. lakhdar brahimi the u.n. special envoy to syria spoke of the terrible situation there and all around the table at this preliminary meeting agreed of the desperate need to try and find a solution however that said they failed today to manage to organize a conference for june which was earlier what had been hoped it may now be held in july possibly even later than that there is talk of another meeting later this

month just to try and get that conference on the road central to the problems for this conference divisions divisions at various different levels between the u.s. and russia russia are accusing the u.s. of two stronger support for the rebels and the u.s. and other members of the international community accusing russia of two strong support for our side in his forces there also divisions on the ground there government has outlined its intention to come to a peace conference the rebels though fighting against assad's forces many divisions within their ranks we've seen. videos purporting to show some rebels eating the internal organs of some of their competence that they've been fighting against also evidence emerging of chemical weapons use in syria sarin gas

the french foreign ministry saying it has found traces of that sarin gas the u.n. however saying it needs more evidence to try and work out exactly where and by whom those chemical weapons were used. barack obama's latest promise to close guantanamo bay has been met with tough resistance in congress normally because in the lower house of voted in favor of keeping the facility open indefinitely and that means more suffering for all the detainees held that without charge most of whom have been starving in protest for the past four months the brief really of one yemeni inmate. that some might argue there's not all that much difference between the physical torture that many prisoners undergo montana mode and the emotional toll meant their relatives are forced to deal with at home like the family of abdurahman ash baxi a yemeni terror suspects held at the controversial detention center since two thousand and two after his arrest the whole family was accused of links to

terrorists only man now we have them america's support for human rights is merely a show it only cares about its own people well it destroys the rights of all others who have been suffering for thirteen years now. and yemen president obama's recent promise to lift restrictions off get detainees specifically from the country was greeted with nothing but sneers. 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 itself as the thirty yemeni prisoners wait for the u.s. president's promises to come true the four month long hunger strike against their indefinite detention continues prisoners have been demanding for nonmilitary 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 forced but i can tell you that and they have described being for spread in such terms as having a knife run down their throat. back in yemen the relatives all say they aren't 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 dies last. page him a son in yemen time now for some other international news in brief the u.s. soldier robert bales he is in the deaths of sixteen civilians in march two thousand

and twelve has pleaded guilty to murder and means the staff sergeant will now avoid the death penalty for the massacre of what were mostly women and children relatives of the dead of express outrage that bales when escape capital punishment. building collapse in the center of the american city of philadelphia has enough at least five people injured up to ten more are still thought to be trapped under the rubble all of those rescued were taken to nearby hospitals is as yet unknown what caused the building to fall. i'll be back with a news team with more in just over half an hour from now in the meantime public private partnerships in transit and the startup act which turned out to be a nonstarter. and probably interest of the spring. all.
