5:01 am
thanks for watching with r.t. international. that russia has demanding an investigation over claims of ukrainian army use force response in the eastern city residents say they were woken by what they believe were fire bombs being dropped these weapons a ban by the un and kiev denies their use is what the locals say. we all saw what happened here yesterday they used rocket launchers as well as incendiary bombs against us the ground was on fire how can the ground burn by itself it burned for about forty minutes. you know this building is starting from ten am everyone every man has such a sore throat and all the time i think this is because of the burning i think we'll feel the true consequences later there are still a lot of people here it's a lot of children we haven't managed to get out yet. well we'll spoke to a former british army intelligence officer who's recently returned from ukraine and
5:02 am
he told us the attack based signs of phosphorus weapons i've seen the video of looked at it closely it does indeed salaries what one might say. the hallmarks of white phosphorous use for example a very bright light burning and multiple burns coming down from the sky it's an episode weapon that's been used such as a mortar or perhaps an aircraft and then of course again the telltale still burning in videos i've seen in the daytime showing actually this very. white a gray smoke so white phosphorus being used it's an alarming development of course it needn't necessarily be legal but it depends on the usage concern and that's exactly why of course and indeed other people even from the west should be even if they haven't so far should be calling for a pop up in full investigation of this incident to prevent an escalating. white phosphorus is extremely dangerous and when used as
5:03 am
a weapon it can cause painful chemical burns often with lethal consequences behalves is most notorious use was the two thousand and four bombing of fallujah in iraq witnesses horrifyingly described women and children literally melting to death the fear now is whether these banned weapons have actually been used since advance a city of more than one hundred thousand people which has been under regular artillery fire for weeks the u.s. state department was asked to comment on the alleged use of fire bombs but it spokeswoman seemed a little confused. there were reports yesterday that the korean military is using phosphorus white phosphorus. slovyansk do you know anything about that did that come up in the conversation between secretary kerry and foreign minister lavrov if there was warming was there there was one yesterday and actually i did find what i wanted to say on the across so let me get to that after i get to matt's question so thank you for your patience very do you have anything to say about the force of the
5:04 am
bosphorus leaders when you listen to your old what appears to be video and photographic evidence of the scene of the usage of the by the by the russian no matter the primitives i have not seen those reports and i'm happy to check with our team and see if we have confirmation of that or more to say on that. remodelled bus plastination crane is thought to have killed at least three people injured several more local authorities say the vehicle belonging to one of the leaders of the self-proclaimed yet school public dentist push when it was not in the minibus at the time of the attack less than a week ago his assistant was killed in a drive by shooting where she was the suspected target we spoke to him earlier about the latest attempt on his life. but all this is just the latest in a series of attacks there were many people injured today i don't deny the possibility that i was the target of increased the number of security guards i have but you can't be sure of anything in a civil war the humanitarian situation in eastern ukraine is increasingly desperate
5:05 am
thousands of people have fled to russia from the bombings and artillery attacks artie's pour scott talk to some of those who've operated their families to escape the violence. well what you can see a few yards behind me is the russia ukraine border and for many people fleeing the restive aist of ukraine this is their first port of call it's a makeshift temporary holding center now the vast majority of people who are crossing the border have somewhere to go they can stay with friends or family within russia however many simply have nowhere to go no want to turn to and they're completely dependent on the rest of authorization and the last twenty four hours more than six hundred people have crossed the border seeking shelter the majority of them a women and children who are trying to escape uncertainty of life in eastern ukraine and this case speaking to a number of them that it's an emotional time that it will force them almost every
5:06 am
night we hear shootings explosions multiple rocket launchers i can't handle those noises anymore so this is. a very small my children are with me like my mother and grandmother stayed there people are hiding in basements and don't seem to realize this will never end the houses are bombed we don't have anything anymore . god says that it's scary that the government and the ukrainian media are lying about things they see there organizing humanitarian corridors but there is no sign of that they don't let people leave and keep bombing them. but the authorities in the rostov region are being helped by donations from people all over russia on thursday forty tons of supplies including food water and medicine arrived but with an average of four hundred people crossing the border every day and seeking assistance it's clear that in the coming weeks more more aid is going to be needed . the rest of region. the head of the organization for security and cooperation in

europe has visited the ukrainian refugee camp in russia to where he heard directly from civilians about the attacks in the east you had to r.t. dot com for more on the ongoing assaults in the region. iraq's crumbling under the force of a renegade al qaida splinter group sweeping the north now the us president is considering air strikes and drone attacks the so-called islamic state of iraq and syria insurgent groups have captured the whole province of nineveh in this video you can actually see some three thousand iraqi soldiers surrendering to the militants their sites around baghdad and fighting is being reported use fifty kilometers from the capital. and looks to what effect america's offer to help attacking the insurgents might have. militants with the islamic state in iraq and syria are now in control of large parts of iraq including its second largest city
5:08 am
of mosul they are now aiming at the capital baghdad the fight against assad in syria has bolstered these islamist militants and gave them new resources and the sectarian food in iraq has allowed the group to gain momentum and recruits the sectarian war in iraq broke out after the u.s. invasion in two thousand and three and has been a source of constant violence ever since now the u.s. may invade again to stop the onslaught of the islamist militants my team is working around the clock to identify how we can provide the most affected assistance to them i don't rule out everything because we do have a stake in making sure that. these jihadists are not getting a permanent foothold in either iraq or syria for that matter the u.s. says all options are on the table except it's on the ground u.s. officials don't specify what options they're looking at this could include
5:09 am
airstrikes the goal of this militant group is to create a caliphate the islamic state the process of vast area that includes syria and iraq but for many iraqis the prospect of being bombed by the u.s. again is no less daunting they're already being shelled by the iraqi government. which is striving to drive them militants out when taking over a mall so heavily armed radicals overran police stations create more than a thousand plays and i spotted a city jail and took over the international airport iraqi forces apparently ran in the face of the ocelot leaving behind weapons uniforms and armored vehicles more than half a million people have fled seeking refuge the situation for most iraq this is dire and it has been so for years they were promised democracy but all they've seen is violence with no end in sight. the jat is have also managed to seize some american army hardware that was supplied early it's who iraq to help it fight be insurgency michael o'brien who was a u.s.
5:10 am
defense department can trying to interact discuss the racks disintegrating security with a nice in our in our teens in that. you now have instead of suicide bombers and all that and people getting killed you know it's going to the next step. instead of people just being people getting murdered now you're taking actually land there they're actually they vote for all practical purposes running ambar province they're taking over the country now how much responsibility should put on the iraqi government here well you're actually government's incompetent it's inept but you know that the job is impossible you know saddam was it was a bad actor he was a bad guy but he kept a lid on everything through force the maliki you know is a shiite and the sunni's are upset because they were in charge and they want to take over again and saddam kept a lid on all of this maliki doesn't have a prayer of the iraqis the iraqi government can't and i don't know if any iraqi
5:11 am
government could do this unless it was a dictatorship like it was under saddam. struggles to defeat. terrorists at home will tell you shortly. what they're going to do it was to convince the american public that there is this large army potential terrorist that they should all be very very scared about a muslim advocacy group says that since two thousand and one u.s. security services have been in trapping and convicting innocents which washington deceives might be dangerous in the future also ahead how israel's taking a step forward in its. full speed palestinian prisoners ignoring.

you leave with these economic ups and downs in the fine at long stay the longer the deal sang i and the rest look like it's going to be a single day every week long named the lucky. dramas that come to be ignored. stories others refuse to notice and. the faces change the world writes never. so picture of today's leaves no longer from around the globe
5:14 am
to look to. the. hello again now russia has given ukraine its final deadline to sort out its gas agreement with europe nervously watching from the sidelines a third of the continent's gas comes from russia through ukraine and if it gets cut off it's likely to cause headaches for european homes and businesses so let's try and break down how these prices are in fact worked out well right now it stands at three hundred eighty five dollars per cubic meter which is one hundred dollars less than what western europe generally pays and it's roughly the same price that was agreed on by our former prime minister yulia timoshenko back in two thousand and nine was since then moscow has applied a few discounts and twenty ten the price dropped to three hundred fifteen dollars because of the agreement to station russia's black sea fleet base in crimea three
5:15 am
years later then president yannick overture agreed to enter a customs union with russia and that saw the gas price go down to two hundred and sixty eight dollars these agreements no longer exist but ukraine insists it should get gas at a bargain price which no one else gets artesian it explains. somewhat surprising given that ukraine is now looking west and plans to sign an association agreement with the e.u. so the price of three hundred eighty five dollars is at a market level reasonable plus moscow is offering to fix that price for at least a year prime minister gets nukes been there before back in two thousand and nine. president put an agreed on roughly the same price that russia is offering today yet now he is accusing moscow of using gas as a political tool if gas is a political weapon then this political weapon is in the hands of the russian government and if gas is a good as it typically is all across the world then that trade is based on
5:16 am
a contract and not based on whether russia likes the ukrainian government or not so ukraine wants to squeeze the price to the lowest rate despite the fact that it still owes a whopping four billion dollars gas from chairman is far from impressed by kiev's bargaining tactics but he couldn't because the strategy of the ukrainian side is outright blackmail from the start they took new constructive steps made new compromises and apparently want to be maximally aggravates our gas relationship and of course that leaves europe in limbo too in two thousand and six gas supplies were cut off after ukraine siphoned fuel intended for europe from the transit pipes in two thousand and nine it is again russia's already given ukraine the benefit of the doubt and shifted deadlines to help negotiations so now the ball's in kiev scored bill doors for the international action center things kiev is treading a dangerous path in these gas negotiations. the ukrainian government is being
5:17 am
intransigent putting its own population at risk and also putting the people of europe at risk i think in this particular case the russian government is not acting politically but acting on a strictly economics market basis they are offering gas to ukraine at a lower price than europe is saying you could say that russia was acting politically earlier when it gave large discounts to ukraine in a desire for stability but if the ukrainian government is behaving in a hostile way and there is no reason for russia to give ukraine political consideration. and the ukrainian crisis is also the focus of today's cross talk with peyton the. divisions within ukraine are becoming greater with each passing day the western backed regime in cave shows no interest in compromise or negotiations at the same time civilians in the east continue to die is going for broke. let's cross talk
5:18 am
a bit later on now israeli lawmakers have given men issue approval to force feed hundreds of palestinian prisoners who've been on hunger strike for over fifty days the government is trying to fast track the initiative three parliament but the country's medical community says it's inhumane and is refusing to comply the head of physicians for human rights hopes israeli doctors will stand. both feeding he's not considered as a measurable is the correct use of told but he's really government is interested in passing the law as soon as possible even if the low pass we believe that the physicians really need to use and obey to the medical ethics and not to these rare cases and physicians we do not take part in co-chair post feeding it we do not necessarily save anyone's life and it could damage is ultimately committed but
5:19 am
in. and out seventy. fifty day of the strike. when you spend trying to spice emerge that i have a dozen right dollars for almost half an hour three cabinet disappearances and experts are scratching their heads i hope you can see the back tell the full story at r.t. don't. have a life shoes could see you cashing in with the coin rewards will tell you have. a little. knowledge base which. should have you with us here on our seats and i'm over.

5:22 am
a few goods in the worst dorothy a prime minister human rights groups the charges dropped and say that turkey should focus on the lethal police used during the riots. so then the government is under fire from the united states in the three classes a to the united nations said that in recent repeatedly bombed villages the army battles red. in the region but. getting into the future it is a practice. of prostitution. the five percent of those found were provides. muslims have been around and in residence for attempting to carry out terrorist attacks this release. most of those so-called terror plots in. domestic threats of muslim extremists when exactly justice is list of three hundred ninety nine terrorism cases the study
5:23 am
found that ninety four percent of those cases involved preemptive prosecution that's a practice of targeting those who deem just. before actual. work targeted purely for their religion. individuals moring them with and coursing them terrorists. do. the want. a group and and . or sort of thing control it's control issues and to their advantage and the entire legal justification for that depends on. terror they have the right to do this so they keep this and arresting
5:24 am
them and scaring everybody because without us surveillance as the public has learned is not just limited to the was there outcry over government manufactured crime that this target remarks in new york. now it's a coming up to half past one here in the russian capital having ma'am but it's dividing us. one of the caring hearts of one of the capitals on look they've implemented a plan to finally get almost people off the streets at night. they can at least earn a few pounds and have some human dignity of course not they put the whole boats have nowhere to sleep yes that is right they're laying down spike. tanks and say bangladesh and that is their business but you just constantly cry from the ivory tower to the whole but how we all need to be hard to death to help people grow up
5:25 am
in a better live near the people they claim to want to help you know henry ford was one of those guys who said that you should never give anybody any handouts so what he did was give the disabled and the poor decent paying jobs at his factory so listen up you liberal loony bin if you want to get those evil yucky print for people off the streets just put them to work it will read your city of its homeless problem a lot faster than spikes will but that's just my opinion.
