senate hearing. live from a studio central moscow this is twenty four hours a day. twenty three people have been killed in powerful blasts near the iranian embassy in lebanon's capital beirut conflicting reports suggest an iranian culture is among the victims of the bombings that injured more than one hundred forty lebanese group. has reportedly claimed responsibility for the attack on middle east correspondent paula has the latest. the blasts happened at nine thirty this morning there were two blasts that were just seconds apart and according to lebanese security officials the one was caused by a suicide bomber who was driving a rig's car and the other was caused by a person on

a motorcycle as i say they came just seconds apart leaving charred bodies strewn about on the ground there and also in flames rising from several buildings aid workers as well as residents have been carrying the wounded in the dead on blankets to nearby buildings there have been hospitals that have been inundated with people arriving now the iranian embassy building itself was only likely damaged but the iranian embassy compound has been extensively hit the area is a stronghold of the militant his blood group that has strong ties with the syrian president bashar assad and it's unclear at this stage whether or not the blasts are linked in any way to the syrian civil war but it's important to note that this area has been hit by similar such explosions in the past and at that time the blame was put on rebels who were believed to have targeted this area because of iran's support for. in syria now the lebanese government has condemned the attacks it has

called for an emergency meeting at the same time tehran's envoy to lebanon has said that he believes that israel is behind these blasts in the same comments are being made by the syrian information minister when we spoke to political analyst. who's in beirut and he told us what he believes were the reasons behind the attorney. i don't agree with the iranian ambassador who pointed his finger to the israelis it's true that the israelis are beneficial as by this explosions but who perpetrated by x. our al qaeda linked groups there. is bandar bin sultan in saudi arabia the militants or the proxies of saudi arabia are now it around the cities of homes and damascus when. syrian army decided to crush the rebellion in this area the saudis. wanted to send

a message hysterical very hysterical message to iran still ahead this hour on r t c cheese to the business spies. that scans my face it recognizes that i'm female and eight between thirty and forty five then send that information back to advertise the. health facial recognition systems are being deployed to help big companies sell their products to suspecting consumers. still to come but first talks of iran's nuclear program are set to resume tomorrow after a round of negotiations earlier this month failed to seal an agreement israel has been staunchly opposed to a deal along with france saying any lifting of sanctions against iran would happen only if the round gave up its program we will russia's president has voiced his optimism that a deal would be reaching scott reports. on monday at the initiative of russian

president vladimir putin he and his iranian counterpart hassen rouhani had a phone conversation after which the russian president was quoted as saying that he believes there is now a real chance that iran and the international community can come to an agreement over the country's nuclear program an agreement that would eventually seeing the easing of sanctions on the country now the storm just opposition to that move is coming from israel who has strong support from france france of course are in the negotiating group in fact french president francois hollande has been in israel prior to those talks in geneva on wednesday but despite the documented differences after the first round of talks. optimism is shed by russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov your residual speculations of the positive shift we now see in negotiations over iran's nuclear program has only become possible because of pressure coming from sanctions against it i suggest we leave it to historians to

decide we as diplomats simply can't afford to be dragged into these meaningless discussions we now have a real chance to sign a solid deal and if we let speculation lead us astray we could lose this chance there are many who won't be very upset if the talks collapse once again which of also went on to say that tehran has agreed to two stipulations specified specified by france at those earlier talks that is to stop enriching uranium to twenty percent all together and to limit the amount of uranium enriched to three and a half percent so it does seem that ahead of wednesday's talks there is a real sense of optimism that there could be a breakthrough which could end this decade long standoff. this take a closer look now at the terms of a possible nuclear agreement international goshi it is a demanding iran halt iranian enrichment to the twenty percent level blending down the existing stock to five percent to run is also to limit the number of centrifuges used and allow broader monitoring of its nuclear facilities world

powers with them agreed to unfreeze some iranian assets and ease the sanctions currently crippling iran's economy while the former french prime minister dominique de ville plan believes international negotiators should seize the moment to seal a deal or face far reaching consequences the question is how much are we ready to take the risk to sign the agreement and i think to assess the importance of this agreement we must understand that it is a process of course we're not going to get the final agreement from scratch on wednesday but we can go into process of an agreement with an interim area agreement and then we can progress and have a final agreement that would be better so i think it's a chance and we should take it it is the interest of the region because this will have strong consequences on the situation in syria on this situation in lebanon on

the peace process so the smith change completely the dynamic of the region for good on the contrary if we don't sign the agreement if we don't take all the chances to sign this agreement we may have the strong consequences and we may face is strike in iran coming from easy road ahead of tomorrow's talks r.t. so if you have an answer spoke to iran's deputy foreign minister about how his country's relations with the west have changed after president rouhani came to power and that full interview will be shown on friday here on r.t. . a dialogue has been established in different spheres including a bilateral dialogue with the u.s. on the sidelines of the p five plus one in regards to our nuclear program a new atmosphere has been established but we believe that some forces in the us and in the west in general are applying efforts to destroy these new relations instead of using them iran is always showing readiness to cooperate with the u.s.

and the west to embrace any of their positive approaches as long as the rounds rights and not undermined and the agreement on an equal basis could attract iran's attention we believe washington now has this chance to negotiate with iran but as to how they will use this opportunity is for the future to tell. coming away on friday that interview in full a drone strike in yemen has killed three al qaeda suspects according to local officials the american deadly drone campaign is usually shrouded in secrecy with relatively little information about who the victims of the attacks actually are but human rights watch managed to study six strikes and found the majority of those killed in them have been civilians including women and children or he says he covered all travel to a yemeni village devastated by the u.s.

war on terror. it says no faith for the one who has no trust but both are now in short supply in this part of yemen for months the class has been without its mouth teacher and this pupil without his father this is the big show about a charity i didn't know. his name is still on the staff schedule but i leave hasn't been here since signing out of class on january twenty third the last could be the final to be the father of three was killed by a u.s. drone alongside his twenty year old cousin salim a college student who drove them in a borrowed to yoda they picked up two strangers who turned out to be suspected al qaeda militants witnesses reported a whirring sound in the sky then missiles struck their car. the smell of death was everywhere some of the bodies were burned beyond recognition the rest were ripped to shreds and scattered all around. i found

a part of saleman side the car the rest was outside we only recognised him by a piece of his trousers. you couldn't tell who was who if they were even human it was sickening. one drone change the sleepy farming village for ever less than an hour's drive from yemen's capital kabul lawn is far removed from al qaeda operations but without warning it was thrust into the war on terror. for her son used to sleep she can't bear to get rid of his things although she knows she'll never return home. god help us i didn't understand until the next day that an american drone killed my son why tell me may allah deprive them of their souls like they robbed us of our son. he was the only one providing for this family all we have left now is our tears we only target al qaeda and its associated force and even then the use of drones is heavily constrained before any strike is taken there

must be near certainty that no civilians will be killed or injured the highest standard we can set. accept there was a deadly failure yemen's interior ministry confirms the cousins had no links to terrorism in a country where tribal ties surmount all the loss was felt far beyond the family the white house has never acknowledged the deaths let alone the strike but mohamed shows me the evidence this is what killed them what's thought to be a fragment of a hellfire missile launched from a drone. the u.s. believes this is its best weapon against al qaeda although not officially at war in yemen the covert drone campaign has been dramatically ramped up here under president obama. yemen's al qaeda threat is real its plotted attacks on international airliners and caused hundreds of deaths the

cia described it as the most dangerous and active branch of the terrorist network the defense is the drone strikes have seriously damaged his ability to plan attacks but critics here say it's doing the exact opposite it does not contain those. facts may have contributed to the growth and expansion of the. at some point when i get off powerful enough to be able to inflict serious damage the u.s. war on terror has no borders often waved remotely with cruise missiles and drones it's an undeclared global battlefield in which yemen is just one of the front lines of fight against groups like al qaida in which ordinary civilians also end up paying a price. i ask obama to bring my dad back to life all the kids in school have their fathers but we don't reporting in come on in yemen and lucy catherine of.
