you know the four year media project a free media oh god r t v dot com. for now it's like two active camps i've walked on a mode where patients are forced into months after i'm out of the strike never turn world's attention to the place that some gulag of our minds. fighting in the dog black out in syria off to tear out songs or make a gas pipeline the latest small ship to hate a population gripped by conflict the price of ruin it's a cute kid. we have exclusive footage from the six year old yarmouk and ever is a battlefield for families who refuse to believe it's. every bit as sacred

as you'd sold on ben son as i'll see crude tools gone tanabe the mind is showing all this stay awhile corridos desire to learn to jump to inmate on a concrete floor you're seeing what there is just to see you know. our report a sense of courage to see all the u.s. military in a few moments. on the new door means no apologies from washington as the u.s. ambassador to germany was summoned to explain a report of the n.s.a. times and the mughals private. news from russia and iran the while this is all see with me here thanks for joining us. ok gas pipeline is see where has been blown up leaving much of the country

without power for several hours the government accused the rebels of samba taj with the blasts reportedly being followed by having gunfire all she's middle east correspondent paula syria has the details what we're just hearing from the russia today arabic correspondent in damascus who says that power has been restored to the country but this follows a night of panic in which need capital city damascus was plunged into darkness there were also huge parts of aleppo in the north and the west of the country that were in blackout after rebels hit a gas pipeline not far from damascus that supplies power to the south of the country by all accounts this does seem as if it was a well planned to straighten effort that had been in the making for quite some time there was also a military checkpoint in the west that came under fire there were casualties there there was also a church in the town of dumas that was bombed this is in addition to the two main squares in damascus these are the squares of my yard and other c.n.n.

and they were also hit by mortar shells not i visited the town of young which is on the front line from where i filed this report. this is young mork sold to damascus ten months ago it was home to one point two million palestinians today ten pursuit remain the price of this so it's acute here it's divided families and pitted brother against brother. lee betrayed and we cannot trust them anymore eight days ago abu movie and his wife came home for ten long months they'd lived on the streets not once giving up the hope they'd return this is what way to be and the will come we are coming to kill you bashar scribbled on the walls. whatever happens i will not leave my house. again i would like to destroy the us and we'll them again it could not be worse than this for one year syria's palestinians

managed to stay out of the conflict but the infiltration of foreign fighters with big dreams and even bigger promises of money forced the residents of young men to choose sides and take up arms against people they know their whole lives. from friends fighting on the other side they're not friends anymore the ones who displace those from our housing and destroyed our homes are not our friends. with. each day a bomb relieves to fight them but not before he struck furniture high against the windows to protect his family from snipers life inside these political little boys is as dangerous as it is outside his two sons as vulnerable as their mother every time the father walks out the door but it's always a painful farewell all movie carefully helps her husband prepare for battle she knows he needs to go but each time he leaves behind the same an onset question.

every day when he says goodbye i wonder if you will come back or not like when he got injured he didn't come back i want to find him in hospital there are a lot of men like him and women like me. but not a lot of fighters have brought their families back to yarmouk the snipers are in shooting range and three days earlier shrapnel from a bullet had blinded our buoys lift our eye but the thirty three year old doesn't have a choice he has nowhere else to move his family and while the southern part of your milk is still in the hands of the rebels his home or what remains of it has been freed by palestinians who like abu marie are fighting alongside the syrian army and . when i go to the battlefield my mind is always with my family and i hope i will come back safe to them because they care of them and i pray that if i get more.

they will find two hundred people to look after america. the frontline is near two streets away but for other movie and his comrades the battle hits closer to home each time they take an aim to secure the streets for their families often it's a neighbor friend and sometimes even a brother who is pointing a gun back at them point of c.r.t. yarmouk syria. international inspectors are in syria at the moment overseeing the destruction of the country's chemical weapons and the facilities designs to build them and some are wondering whether the nationwide power shortage could be an attempt to undermine their work. the attack in damascus today the shutdown of damascus the power outage this is a terrorist act and right now john kerry's very happy chuck hagel is very happy president obama is happy this is what their policy is is to fund and finance and coordinate through the joint special operations command in the cia this kind of

terrorist actions against the people of syria may be partly designed to carry out a disruption of the weapons inspections because other weapons inspectors have had all kinds of trouble getting into areas that are under the rebels control where a chemical weapons we nisshin seem to have been used there's been lots of near misses mortar attack showings and other kinds of military. disruptions of the weapons inspectors program and much of it and i think almost all of it is coming from the rebel side because perhaps they have something to hide the rebels are still reluctant to negate statehood the syrian government putting together a list of conditions damascus should make before they start talking the demands were made at a friends of syria gathering in london this week and moscow believes they communicate a group of eleven states who sympathize with the opposition came up with could jeopardize any chance of a dialogue a resolution from the london conference clearly says that assad should not have

a role in syria as he tries it places the blame for the conflict squarely on damascus and says it's clear who carried out become a call at a time in august mosca took issue with the wording because it claims it could provide the assad regime into backing out of the forthcoming talks in geneva a us defense analyst i haven't even told us how this overwhelming support to rebels can backfire. but the al qaeda groups are dying now dominating the opposition they're the most ruthless and oftentimes when you have a big civil war a chaotic civil war the most ruthless conning people rise to the top and i'm afraid that the west is in an illusion that these rebels are going to be some sort of a democratic force and i think obama now he's wised up to that i think that he's always been a bit reluctant to get involved in this with heavy amounts of u.s. aid and i think even the turks are now attacking some of the rebel groups they're threatened by some of them on their borders and they have been supporting the rebel

groups and probably steer are supporting someone so the situation is getting very chaotic but i think that the rebels if the rebels take over are you could have you know you could have an al qaeda dominated portion of syria. this is coming up in the program trade with the west stand on give east ukraine's attends for the best of both was a trouble. and american media gets its teeth into spying on occasions against a russian diplomat based on the glass something he has labeled as nonsense and an egghead of the cold war. another day another apology demanded for the n.s.a. spying activities they german foreign minister has summoned the was ambassador to get some answers over allegations that washington times chancellor angela merkel's

oh she's petone of a has more now from. the statement from the foreign ministry that alerted us that the german the us ambassador to germany had been summoned stress the fact that foreign minister vest developer would be meeting with him in person now usually a junior diplomat would have taken a meeting like this but the german side wanting to get to the bottom of these allegations is as quickly as possible now this follows up a phone call from angle and merkel directly to barack obama on wednesday after the news broke that perhaps the united states had been listening into the personal phone calls of the german chancellor now a spokesperson for i'm glad merkel said that if this turned out it had happened it would be completely unacceptable and said that angela merkel wanted an immediate and comprehensive response from the united states from the u.s. side where the white house issued a statement saying that the u.s. was not listening into angela merkel's phone and had no intention to do it in the

future we have seen action starting to take place over the n.s.a. spying revelations that have come out following edward snowden's leaks of course it started off as just demonstrations all across europe with some demonstrations here in berlin but we're now starting to see real developments the european parliament. has suspended the swift accord with the united states now what the swift agreement was is it shared banking data between the united states and the e.u. it was supposed to allow terror investigations to see if money was being used from accounts to help fund terrorism also the european parliament has said well they've tried to put in place some tougher laws on data sharing with the with the united states and also told member states to put in place their their own. their own precautions to try and plug holes in what seems to be a very leaky ship of data here in europe with all of that that leakage heading towards the united states now it's also starting to put a real dampener on potentially multi billion dollar trade deal between the e.u.

and the united states. and johns who is the sparks passing for data protection and n.s.a. spy the pirate party says surf on that prove their n.s.a. is good at abusing privacy but not finishing terrorism and. the conservative government was protecting the secret service cooperation between the german services and the n.s.a. over a long time so i think edward snowden is right when he says that the german secret service and the german government is in bed with u.s. authorities and if you look at the whole n.s.a. scandal have been so many leaks and so many documents i have not seen until today a single document that can prove that a terrorist attack was. came out because of the n.s.a.

spying programs so there is no success rate right now while all what that we see from the documents and from the leaks that came out. of these surveillance measures . and on our website read an independent reports and trusting the agency's exigencies we're no way near as effective as the government would like the public to. make it would i would imagine. she was because. she's. a great.

well to the. beach one. to keep it one talk amongst yourselves from st petersburg to france the trouble in search of the sun. we've got the future average. welcome bob this is aussie as the most lion drone the planet has gone tonto about capes its affairs and scandals under wraps and l.t. found out just how far they'll go to make sure nothing gets out and is this

a trick and i and our crew visiting the facility has sent us this report but only after the third it had been taken and carefulness censored by gone time stop. transparency is a word repeated by u.s. officials working at guantanamo like a mantra by those few who are comfortable speaking on camera you see the conditions under which the detainees live you get to talk to the people who are responsible for garnham we make it is transparent as possible and those preferring to remain on identifiable like the majority of officials we were permitted to speak to every week we get media like yourself international media or local media or whatever and they're welcome to come you know we tell them what we have any journalists workflow at guantanamo starts with a mandatory introduction to media rules the so-called operation security briefing or the material that you guys are gathering to make sure that it abides by our

policy here even though transparency is a word brought out by all the personnel we talk to on the ground we as journalists access to detainees aside are asked to be very careful about the shots we filmed all the backdrops and at the end of each day videos are reviewed and any shots deemed unacceptable are deleted this one will be ok because palm trees are not too controversial remind you of any frowned upon seaward like censorship it's in this series the program established to our. program accomplished within the purview of sorry all video and audio recordings and even sketches are carefully studied cell phones are banned from camps we're not supposed put anything on facebook or anything like that or you know even worry about talking about it over the you know anything over the phone this said purpose of these ground rules to protect the safety and security of getting the operations of the detainees you know make it their mission so we try to photograph them from there down we are warned violations of media ground rules may result in restricted access denial of future

visits and or remove all from guantanamo bay if people just kind of mislabeled it and they have called it a call for be just not leading. giving the true picture i mean the only people who knows what goes on get more is os and the detainees and getting the detainees side of what goes on and get most apparently just couldn't be done after an extensive explanation of how exactly we are to film the prisoners the amount of detainee face time we get a total of one minute and five seconds through a dark glass window the reason we're given out of respect for them and and not using them is as you know. you know. making them some kind of curiosity you know on film the thing like that we don't want to do that despite our requests to not even film but at least witness more real prison or life a high ranking guantanamo admiral convinces us that we actually have a lot more access than we think you're seeing what there is just to see you know.

given the amount of time that you have here to to see it we are as transparent as possible after one minute glimpse at one detainee our schedule is in fact all booked up i think i mean they they were taken to the detention camp kitchen to witness how well things were on their bill since we're not really being allowed to close to the detainees this might be the closest glimpse of their life we might be getting today we're being told that these are the meals that they're offered on a daily basis. we're also taken to the only local radio station all made up like zombies in the audience military personnel serving at the base do you do any news related to the one time detention camp. why not read that to public media because. you know there's enough journalists over there covering that music sports and talk radio pure infotainment rains here. and

so we learned there were not the only ones simply being treated to a show and party one tunnel bay cuba. so you have now seem like for journalists visiting gone time about for nor is representing inmates it's even harder and rayna who represents a number of the detainees regulations unable to even mention the alleged torture of clients. the walls and regulations that are governing the military commissions are incredibly confining for defense counsel they're subject to very strict protective orders that require them to keep classified information classified so for example the lawyers representing the men accused in the men now call the nine eleven five. they are seeking to disclose facts of their client's torture to various international tribunals and they're unable to do that right i mean there is no

doubt the u.s. government be gauged in torture it's a it's publicly known and it's right and they're on able to do that because they can't share what their clients have told them with these outside decision makers and fact finders. he's doing his best to tell you about old goes on and gone tunnel bay prison allegations of torture physical and illegal mistreatment and coverups all of our findings are online for you at dot com and also online bahrain gears up for war against its unruly citizens find out about the enormous arms tender plays lighted on a gate which is looking to buy more tear gas canisters and the country has people. believing out of this wild not quite space tourism but if you have seventy five thousand dollars a specially designed helium powered vassal can take you to the edge of the void why

bother that's when our website. is being reported in america they had over a russian cultural exchange program is being investigated by the f.b.i. the security agency is reportedly looking into his alleged spy activities going on now reports. at this point we know that there are several outlets and american news outlets which are saying that the f.b.i. is looking into the hundred thirty people roughly who have gone there to russia on a cultural exchange program over the last twelve years the head of the exchange program you results of is now being investigated as a man who have who have been viewing these young up and coming young americans as possible intelligence assets the man himself the results of had this to say on the subject matter. it's some kind of witch hunt the purse to young boys and girls that have gone to russia demanding to be told to watch the hows and whys they're trying

to instill a fear of russia in american society there is no concrete evidence of misters eyes of guilt presented by the f.b.i. but we do know at this point that they have found it suspicious that those who have gone on trips to russia again on a cultural exchange program i must remind you those who have gone on these programs have stayed in comfortable patel's have gone to various russian cities such as moscow and st petersburg and have on occasion even met with some people from the mayoral circles we do have this reaction from the russian embassy in the united states let's have a listen such horror stories a reminder of cold war days it's a blatant attempt to distort the two parties of the russian cultural center whose goal is to develop trust and cooperation between the two countries but so far all this hype is coming just from news outlets f.b.i. themselves are neither confirming nor denying these reports and as we all know really the man in question mr. hasn't been proven guilty and he should remain

innocent unless proven otherwise. in tunisia a raid by security services on a house about two hundred and fifty kilometers south of the capital has ended in a bloodbath after a gunfight broke out with islamist fighters six policemen and one gunmen were killed another officer died in a separate clash with militants north of tina's authorities are cracking down on fighters it says that taking advantage of unrest in neighboring libya to import arms and launch times ongoing process of force the government announced it will resign but talks with the opposition on when to hold new elections are the push to ban because of the violence the prime minister of tunisia told r.t. his government is doing all it can to deal with social problems before a vote. happened to lead since the beginning of the revolution in twenty eleven when we were done with the despotism of the heads of state our country started to focus its efforts on democracy after a lengthy dialogue we had successful and legitimate official elections the current

constitutional institutions will be temporary until we accept the new constitution and hold elections under it at the same time since the revolution so far we're solving social and economic problems we managed to achieve some progress in this however these problems have become more complex and require more time but north africa expert maureen skeptical the prime minister will go through with his promise to resign despite the increase of often deadly violence. the arab spring has obviously failed i mean it's been an arab nightmare really they haven't resolved anything the islamists have been strengthened by arms flowing out of libya into the region and we see molly's been sucked into this as well a lot of terrorists coming out of libya have been carrying out operations in tunisia and the prime minister has promised to step down which is probably something he doesn't intend to keep

a promise he doesn't intend to keep so that the youth have had enough they've had years of ben ali's misrule and now these people are delivering the same. it could be the last chance for ukraine and russia to avert a trade war that threatens to sink cave's exports eastward they need as of both nations meet today and valerie's ukraine is edging toward a trade pact with europe despite opposition both at home and from its neighbors. to reports now on what's at stake. the funeral of independence this is how ukraine's movement but i'd describe the him in signing over an association agreement between kiev and the european union. our government doesn't tell the truth about what will really happen with our economy health of his g.d.p. relies on export and half of it almost evenly split between russia and the european union agriculture bosses are happy believing their goods will be in demand in

europe but other vital sectors of industry like machinery are under threat so you can emit a railway. can be sold to the european union because the technology is different because the standards are different european union can be substitution for the serious market. was employed in europe probably you can close the spectrum some enterprises in ukraine export up to seventy five percent of what they produce to russia vladimir putin made it clear if key of aligns with the e.u. more school will take protective action but judging by cues political course potential economic risks are not worth the sweat after so it will be joining a unity of different values were human rights are protected you will help ukraine sort out its human rights institutions banners like these are part of a long standing national wide conveying to persuade ukrainians their future lies

within the european union in fact according to the recent opinion polls more than half of the country want to be part of the e.u. and more than forty percent say yes to the association agreement but it will not become a e.u. member. anytime soon says ukraine's only recognized euro skeptic. association backed would bring only one way benefits no. we are not a human we won't take part in decision making but will have to carry out someone else's decisions ukraine tries to sit on two cheers saying both the e.u. and the c.i.s. are regarded a strategic trade directions with moscow refuting that ukraine could enjoy trade privileges with both the e.u. and russia at once it's vague how the country would feel after it makes this leap of faith at the eastern partnership summit in vilnius on the vendor the twenty eighth. reporting from kiev in ukraine. now a special report has next.
