world's attention to the place that some. closed for business europe struggles to shut its doors to the flow of illegal migrants from the middle east and north africa with economically unstable nations like italy and greece taking the biggest. police brutality protests sweep the u.s. on a national day of action with activists saying simply have too much power and a too happy to use it also. it was right here at about two pm local time that a blast ripped through twenty nine six dead. and a city in mourning in just a few minutes here on r.t. we reconstruct the deadly volgograd bombing from social media terrified to the very moment the religious zealotry claimed an innocent life.

welcome to the program here on our. headlines for this hour. a shake up of europe's asylum policies struggling to deal with a heat of immigrants things have just gotten worse over the last several years as large numbers of refugees fully conflicts in the middle east and north africa some of which were fueled by it leaves more hawkish colleagues more than arrived on packed migrant ferries risking their lives for asylum many never making it italy and greece are among the most affected putting pressure on their already burdened economies let's bring up the numbers for you here and to give you a true scope of exactly what we're talking about for example the official statistics suggest that. migrants from outside the e.u.

amount to more than twenty million and to italy every twentieth man is a registered immigrant greece the number is even higher of more than seven percent of the population and the number of asylum applications in italy has increased by more than a one hundred percent compared to last year and greece is only second to germany when it comes to the highest number of pending applications let's get some more details and insight on the problem right now with r.t. correspondent you've got a piece going off. they want to buy food from f. your people to saddam then traveled to libya and finally reached sicily after what must have been the most nerve wrecking ball right of their lives these three women are hiding their faces from the camera since now they're risking being sent back when we were at sea now the boat with the refugees sank into the three hundred people died but we were lucky and in sicily we managed to void get it registered it's illegal between need to go further north there is nothing for us here under a e.u. regulation all newcomers must seek asylum in the country where they are right and

under italian law anyone of voting registration is sent home but nowadays more and more newcomers are ready to take their chances don't register to try to go to northern states where there are more opportunities with you probably when you arrive here they give you the very minimum there is no jobs no school and you sleep in the street for six months italy is one of the worst european states in this regard youth unemployment has exceeded forty percent while the economy is in the worst recession since the second world war international obligations and plain human principle scandal it only to turn away a refugee since for many is the only chance for survival but the situation is now which to a point when this duty has become too heavy for it to handle on its own the e.u. has pledged italy would receive an additional thirty million euro or just over forty million dollars to deal with the refugee crisis but how will this help to distribute the more evenly throughout the union and integrate them into the economy

is not clear they have been so on ideas so far the charity they may be some positive. and i see embodies a lot of. good hope but no concrete ideas and as governments and international organizations brainstorm the solution one thing is certain the flow of refugees is only going to continue you've got this kind of italy. the fight against police brutality has seen protesters come out across the u.s. and rallies against the heavy arm of the law held in a number of cities r.t. is and i see a truck and i went to one of them to find out exactly why the people are just so angry. in new york and dozens of other cities across the u.s. to national day of protests to stop police brutality repression and the criminalization of a generation this is a time when trying to second marks the eighteenth time these people gather for this simple message this is not a judge to be how they treat us they shoot us like animals and that's completely

unwarranted it's literally on warranted when something breaks through like trayvon martin. league re-emerged sean bell it gets treated in the media like this is a isolated incident something that rarely happens and then more often it's not reported at all organizers have been documented cases of what they call the stole lives project they say just over the last two decades thousands of killings have taken place by the hands of police officers they say the majority of these cases have been under reported or brushed aside hundreds every year were killed by the police that the majority of them were unarmed and not involved in any criminal activity when they were killed and also the majority of them were young and either black or latino in the mass media is a very good propaganda saw a lot of people under the impression that people are being stopped and frisked who are being gunned down somehow criminals one of the major concerns for these

protesters seems to be the lack of accountability when it comes to gun violence police brutality and even killings that occur under the hands of law enforcement they see the justice system continues to neglect these cases of violence thus not doing anything to improve the system and bring about real change you have to go through hell and high water just to get a conviction of the officer and what he's convicted for doesn't meet the crime to he's accused anyone so if not being found guilty even if he's convicted he gets out on good behavior after serving minimal time activists and families of victims called police brutality in the u.s. . considering the united states lectures the rest of the world on human rights it's time. thanks for joining us here today and washington on its most useful friend in the middle east going through a bit of

a rough patch arabia says it's reconsidering its partnership for the u.s. failed to strike syria and promise talks with iran over america's. saying it's all just a bunch of hype. no poetic justice in. the human rights groups condemned the fifteen year sentence for an activist who criticized the regime of the written word . for now on the program on r t a roadside service has been held in volgograd in memory of the six victims of a suicide bombing on monday more than forty others were wounded there are doctors still fighting to save the lives of those critically hurt. piece together what happened on that day from the unassuming start to the horrifying. october twenty first started just like any other monday here in boca gras people woke up with places to go and things to get done heavily using bus stations just like this but

for several people needing bus number twenty nine they could never have foreseen how quickly their lives would change when they took that ride. the route ran without incident from morning till afternoon until one person got on board thirty year old guy you see all about that is when things took a tragic turn anastasio the very on a boy was on her way home from classes at the university laughing and talking with the other students crucially it was in the middle of the bus which saved her life it was the roof. when the blast hid everything around me when flying and from that moment i don't remember anything on there recall being thrown onto her window then suddenly finding myself on the street and in a panic i realised something had happened to my hands i was covered in blood. it was right here at about two pm local time that a blast ripped through bus twenty nine filled with about forty people first responders thought it was perhaps a malfunction of the buses fuel systems but aside from the shop they felt to ask

themselves if this was a gas explosion what was the fire. in that that was right there in the car everybody in the blast was touching their faces and heads asking what happened what happened there was a lot of blood on them and a lot of flesh everywhere i was very afraid i got out of my car and i saw the head lying there i mean my friend took a young boy and his father to the hospital the remnant of an explosive device told the tale shrapnel t.n.t. and a grenade the accident site became a crime scene while a jihadist from the republic of dagestan became the central focus of the investigation and then the story took another twist the attack wasn't meant for volgograd at all as the oliver had apparently taken a detour. she had purchased a ticket to moscow and boarded an intercity boss that passed through volgograd when

the bus was almost at the city limits of our gado and went back to downtown belgrade right now investigators are trying to find out whether this move had been planned in advance or are altered the plan along the way looking for a place packed with as many people as possible also under suspicion are three men believed to have helped in the plot to attack the russian capital two from dagestan wanted for twin terror attacks there in two thousand and twelve were said to be waiting for her in moscow on his way there was an aussie all of us husband dmitri sokol of an ethnic russian convert to islam missing since two thousand and twelve some reports suggest the couple had an argument shortly before the attack which may have caused a last minute change in her deadly plans authorities will be keen to find her husband in the hope he may have the answers lindsey frantz r.t. in volgograd. it is that well known that terrorists plot their attacks hidden away

in small clusters called cells terrorism nowadays could be changing the criminals opening gaging in society and using social media to raise their money this reporter watching sports god he doesn't his numbers we don't even know what happened please help us. well this is the russian t.v. program called wait for me it's june two thousand and thirteen and a distraught mother is making an appeal for information for the return of her missing son who's been missing for around a year now it's the type of appeal that's been at hundreds of times before over the years and at first glance nothing appears to be out of the ordinary and likewise disappear when a russian social networking site doesn't appear to be out of the ordinary it's an appeal for funds so that a friend can receive medical treatment for an incurable disease while the friends turn out to be naive to assay allover the suicide bomber who carried out monday's volgograd bus bombing the son turned out to be dimitri circle of an explosives expert wanted by the authorities and living on the run having converted to islam

a married couple headed to dagestan after meeting at a moscow university author aziz believe that at the very same time these appeals were being made public plans for monday's volgograd bus bombing were being hatched and those who donated rubles to help a sick woman or phoned in information to help a distressed mother later discovered that those capable of carrying out such atrocities don't always shun mainstream society and in some cases play an active part in it. on the website right now we. can also. use to get. all right still to come on the program here on a. scale of spying in. the country's politicians in a state of shock.

another report. on the. old. will hand over the keys.

which. programs and documentaries. from the. intriguing story. visit. it's a busy day for news here on r t thanks for joining us today america and its best friend in the gulf could be in for a difficult break up saudi arabia's ruling family is upset with changes to u.s.

foreign policy the worst case scenario for washington could be a disruption to oil supplies however white house officials insist the round was no big deal but as artie's guy nature can explains they have been wrong before. saudi arabia hates the fact that he was didn't bomb syria saudi arabia did everything possible to make it happen and he didn't saudi arabia hates iran and any mentioning of a possible nuclear deal between the us and iran washington and tehran are far from any deal really but even the talk irritates saudi arabia so saudi arabia decided to go public with all that. the saudi prince bandar bin sultan said there will be quote a major shift away from the us and that it will affect arms purchases and oil sales and most recently citing a protest against the us saudi arabia. security council so could an ally be turning into a foe i spoke with professor. the u.s.

has invested a lot in the relationship with saudi arabia and now saudi arabia is threatening to the u.s. i mean talking points and all we hear is this alliance going well. by supporting saudi arabia saudi arabia and many of the gulf countries are probably the most undemocratic the most corrupt and they are really a liability and they have contributed to the sense of alienation between the. world so for saudi arabia specially mr bundy to take this position is a little bit astonishing. but i think i don't think that there will be a total disconnect but if there would be one it would be in the best interest of the us on the whole. the u.s. would not be associated with a country that is the generator of terrorism it will not be associated with

a leader like but who is. playing a major role in the bloody war going on in syria and supporting terrorists the u.s. now downplays this shift with saudi arabia possibly thinking that the saudis are not going to go too far but the u.s. has underestimated such dynamic before with saddam hussein he was an ally of one point with a majority in afghanistan and other folks so in this case it all depends on how four saudi arabia is actually willing to go with this number in virginia i'm going to strike them or not to qatar where simple rhymes can get you in jail a court has now up held a fifteen year sentence for a poet found guilty of insulting the ruler and inciting people to oust the government a decision for the activists who were sympathetic to the arab spring has been condemned by certain rights organizations nicholas mcginn from the human rights

watch he says the case was clearly politically motivated. from what we've seen of the poems that were on board it onto the internet but doesn't seem to be a saying that he's you know guilty of these offenses and of course you know these offenses are our country it's international standards of freedom of expression and we saw it it does seem to be a case that has a political slant to it yes i can see out of it the man and when she was treated pretrial he already in addition to that he wasn't crazy for many of the original trial stations invite he wasn't even present for the the final court of appeal decision which was a yesterday morning when i see a lot of pressure on both three and we're not seeing a lot of pressure on the united out of grammar of this and and can't always doesn't have the same levels of the mastic this as they the it's the same story the issue where they are getting pressures migrant workers' rights and i thought but generally speaking i think international community can be a bit silent where the goals can sound and obviously. to some extent enables them

to to as you say to get away with some serious human rights violations. or loads of goodies for you right now at r.t. dot com including a very special souvenir from iran from russia it's a copy of a cia spy drone shot down two years ago we've got more on the story at r.t. top calming including how the machine was captured reverse engineer and decoded also why you're there on the web site you can check out the story brain from all bit of european science satellite expected to fall back to earth after two and a half years of working overtime it will split into more than fifty pieces. if anyone's guess. in its latest official statement on n.s.a. spying in france the u.s. has labeled allegations that it logged millions of phone calls a lie and this hasn't stopped the newspaper le monde from publishing another report this one about how america got the diplomatic upper hand by bugging computers at

the united nations and more than a half a billion dollars was reportedly used to keep the so-called genie spy program running that's actually a sibling of the notorious prism project it allegedly stole millions of machines fire walls and all infected. who served as the country's prime as well as interior and foreign minister he says simply put the u.s. crossed the line. we knew that. some practices were existed but the search and overall system this came as a surprise for everybody in fact what we are seeing today is the incredible privileges of the us administration over the control of the world system we knew that the us were controlling the financial system through the banking dominance of some big banks through the dollar currency as a reserve currency but controlling internet controlling the formation you know

world this is a privilege in monopoly if we are going to follow up in the same direction then confrontation might be electable and a civil rights activist norman solomon he thinks the u.s. is trying to undo the damage to its image though it's not even thinking about changing its spy policies. president obama is extremely adept at dancing through this kind of a firestorm and saying that he's willing to disclose and willing to be more forthcoming and he's willing to re-evaluate frankly he said that earlier this year when there was a big speech he gave in washington about the use of drones and yet we saw almost no change in actual policy once it could be measured so i think one way to put that in context is that after secretary of state kerry arrived in paris in the last day he told a news conference that he would not discuss intelligence matters so there's

a lot of fog coming from the white house and the state department not a lot of substance why do some of the global news now for the aussie will and the greek parliament has passed a law banning government funding to parties whose members are involved in criminal activity this means the golden dawn polities funding will be frozen after its leaders were charged in connection with the killing of an anti fascist musician musician i should say it was a death which caused a violent protests in the country the party denies being a neo nazi movement despite its swastika like symbol also. in the hundreds of workers in london's chinatown of stop work make no rocket as they march through the streets in protest of police raids against illegal immigrants they wave banners and slogans laging the. labeling this is as racist and targeted more than a dozen businesses raided in recent months. also clashes between israeli soldiers

and locals have been reported in the west bank city of ramallah after troops killed the palestinians thought to be a member of a radical movement i.d.f. forces say that he played a key role in a televised bus bombing last november. and america along with ten year opinion and arab states have thrown their weight behind a. peace conference for next month to try and resolve the syrian conflict rebel groups though still not saying if they will attend the talks in geneva and whether the fragmented opposition has a valuable role to play in rebuilding syria that's a subject for debate in our he's crosstalk coming your way next hour. which they are very much themselves whether it's for a pan-islamic state or whether it's just for their own various criminal reigns we don't really know and i don't think we should be so concerned we should focus on power sharing conflict resolution and reconstruction in syria whether anybody from the opposition cons or not my question is what can. bring

his people bring to the table to persuade those who do attend the future is open it's not predestined that he is going to be. the forever president of syria and it's not enough to do is to say well we'll have a free election and let the people decide because the history of syrian elections over the last five decades has been that. if you lose elections. that's coming your way next hour for now though they are young attractive but they have a whole pall of debts so some female university students in the u.k. turning to pay for a dating websites where men can shower them in cash in expensive gifts or for the goal of their choice which is a teaser sarah furthur reports this modern approach to money making can have unwanted endings. young pretty student seeks wealthy older man welcome
