girlfriend still pens tear jerking poetry. norrish. we post only what really matters. to your face but you speak. russian sounds the alarm over claims ukrainian army used banned weapons in its crackdown on dissent as a military expert tells r.t. they bear the hallmarks of phosphorous bombs. months behind on payments ukraine will have to prepay for russian gas if it fails to sell at least part of its dead by monday and that's after negotiations collapse as a result of caves insistence and you would have to be on its terms a long. extremist militants in iraq have advanced to within fifty kilometers of the capital baghdad after securing much of the north of the country which they hope to turn into an islamic state the u.n. says there have been mass executions of civilians.

as for b.m. in moscow you're watching our t.v. national with me wearing a joshing now russia is demanding an investigation of the grain army's alleged use of prohibited weapons in the east of the country and this is what the night sky there looked like when according to locals and scenary bombs were dropped on them and kiev denies the use of such munitions which are banned by the u.n. and here's what the residents are saying. well we all saw what happened here yesterday they used rocket launchers as well as incendiary bombs against us the ground was on fire ground and by itself it burned for about forty minutes. over the starting from ten am everyone i've ever met has sent

a sore throat and all the time i think this is because of the burning i think will feel the term 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 spoke to a former british army and intelligence officer who's recently returned from ukraine and he told us the a tag bears signs of white phosphorus weapons. he looks at it closely it does indeed tyler is what one might say about the whole box of white phosphorus use for example a very bright light baton and multiple bands coming down from the sky it's an f. weapon to use such is a more terrible problem and i coughed and then of course again to tell it's still an intruder as i've stated in the daytime i'm sharing actually this very territorial rights of gripes about white phosphorus being used it's an alarming development of course it needn't necessarily be legal but it depends on your situation said and that's exactly why of course and indeed other people even from

the west should be even if i haven't served should be calling for a proper and for investigation of this incident to prevent the escalating. white phosphorus is extremely flammable and cannot be put out with water it causes severe consequences perhaps its most notorious use was the two thousand and four bombing of fallujah in iraq with this is they are described people literally melting to death the fear now is that these munitions are being used in small bands a city of over a hundred thousand people which has now been under artillery fire for weeks the u.s. state department was asked to comment on the alleged use of firearms by the spokeswoman seemed a little confused. there were reports yesterday that the premium 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 one there was one yesterday and actually i did find what i want to say on the vehicle so let me get to that after i get to matt's question so thank you for your patience do you have anything to say about the force of the thoughts for instance if. there's some you know what appears to be video and photographic evidence of this from some of the by the by the russian no matter the training 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. now the eastern ukrainian city of mariupol woke up to sounds of battles caves forces stormed the positions of the anti-government fighters their combat raged in the streets for about four hours and the city was assaulted by a national guard battalion formed by the leader of ukraine's radical party the politician says at least five anti-government activists were killed and thirty captured he claims the rest have now been driven away from their headquarters and the city is under the national guard's control

a bus blast in east ukraine is thought to have killed at least three people and injured several more local authorities say the vehicle belonged to one of the leaders of the self-proclaimed republic that is special and who 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 pushilin was the suspected target we spoke to him earlier about the latest attempt on his life. 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 now the humanitarian situation in eastern ukraine is increasingly desperate thousands of people have fled to russia from the bombings and artillery attacks are to talk to some of those who've uprooted their families to escape the violence. 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 one to turn to and they're completely dependent on the rest of story in 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 it's clear speaking to a number of them but it's an emotional time that we will lose them. almost every night we heard shootings explosions multiple rocket launchers. was. going. on my children are with me but my mother and grandmother stayed there people are hiding you basements and don't seem to realize this will never and the houses are

bombed we don't have anything anymore. but his thoughts is that it's scary that the government and the ukrainian media are lying about things they see they're organizing humanitarian corridor us but there is no sign of that they don't let people leave and keep blaming them. for 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 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 or more aid is going to be needed. the rest of region. all they had of the organization for security and cooperation in europe has visited a ukrainian refugee camp in russia where he heard directly from civilians about the attacks in the east had to call for more on the ongoing assault in the region. and jihad as militants in iraq are pushing alarmingly close to the capital baghdad

having captured two new towns in their latest to fans of fighting is taking place just fifty kilometers from the country's main city extremists from the islamic state in iraq and the eleventh organization have already gained a strong foothold in the north taking control of a whole province they are planning to transform iraq into a cradle of radicalism and here you can see some three thousand iraqi soldiers yielding to the jihadists who according to the u.n. conduct a mass executions of both civilians and soldiers are just going to check out looks at what impact america's offer of help to tackle 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 of mosul they are now aiming at the capital baghdad the fight against the saudis 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 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 these militants my team is working around the clock to identify how we can provide the most effective assistance to them i don't rule out anything 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 boots on the ground u.s. officials don't specify what options they're looking at this could include airstrikes the goal of this militant group is to create a caliphate an islamic state to cross a 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 the militants out when taking over a mall so heavily armed radicals overran police stations create more than a thousand prisoners from the city jail and took over the international airport iraqi forces apparently ran in the face of the onslaught leaving behind weapons uniforms and armored vehicles more than half a million people have fled seeking refuge the situation for most iraq these dire and it has been so for years they were promised democracy but all they've seen is violence with no end in sight. as washington is helping iraq militarily skeptics say it would just be trying to. and do the mass america created itself and there are numerous reports the extremists have seized the u.s. army hardware that was supplying earlier to iraq michael bryant who was a u.s. defense department contractor in iraq discussed iraq's disintegrating security situation with and he's now a on artie's in the now show 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 supporting the iraqi government here when we were actually governments incompetent it's inept but you know 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 government could do this unless it was a dictatorship like it was under saddam. and while iraq struggles to defeat the

jihadists in the country the u.s. is fabricating terrorists at home as well tell you very shortly. what they're trying to do was to convince the american public that there is this large army of potential terrorists that they should all be very very scared about a muslim advocacy group report says that since two thousand and one u.s. security services have been entrapping and convicting innocence which washington perceives might be dangerous in the future. also i have israeli medics stand up to lawmakers over the force feeding of palestinian prisoners on hunger strike.

russia and much of it goes through ukraine it's feared death of could start siphoning off european supplies of a gets cut off in a large part of the deadlock is over price so let's have a look at that now russia wants three hundred eighty five dollars per thousand cubic meters which is one hundred dollars less than what some european states pay and it's roughly the same price that was agreed on by former prime minister yulia timoshenko back in two thousand and nine but back then ukraine got some have to discounts for one the price was reduced significantly as part of russia's lease of military facilities in crimea now three years later than president jiang garbage agreed to and to a customs union with russia and that's all the gas prices go down to two hundred and sixty eight dollars with key of projecting a trade union with russia and crimea no longer part of ukraine those discounts are now gone but ukraine insists it should get gas at the same low rates are these are

english 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 but as moscow is offering to fix that price for at least a year but that's not enough for prime minister gets a nuke who wants to squeeze the price to its lowest and that's despite the fact that ukraine still owes a whopping four billion moment and if gas is a good use it typically is all across the world then that trade is based on a contract and not based on whether russia likes the ukrainian government or not interestingly the current energy minister gets and it was cabinet was in that same polls back in two thousand and nine when you let him go advise him of what's in agreed on roughly the same price which russia is offering today gazprom is chairman is far from being impressed by kiev's bargaining tactics or use of the strategy of the ukrainian side is outright blackmail from the start they took new constructive

steps may do 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 bipes in two thousand and nine it did it again russia has already given ukraine the benefit of the doubt and shift to deadlines to help negotiations now the ball's in kiev scored the e.u. criticised prime minister here to new demand that any deal be exclusively on experience terms to have to appeal to the latest negotiations marcus papadopoulos editor of u.k. magazine politics first was amazed by caves baldness. the city of the ukrainian government is breathtaking and this is the same the government's wants to place ukraine into the west's influence and then ukraine wants to have discounted prices from russia for russian natural gas russia has been more than accommodating

to a government which is totally under penzance this ukrainian government has never apologized for paid in the russian language law has never apologized for the destruction of russian historical and cultural monuments by ukrainian nationalists for example world war two ones but at the same time it wants to have a discounted rate from russia. ukraine crisis is the focus of today's cross talk with peter lavelle. decisions within ukraine are becoming greater with each passing day the western backed regime in camp shows no interest in compromise or negotiations at the same time civilians in the east continue to die is going for broke. the world cup kicked off and brazil with a double celebration for the host nation the opening ceremony was followed by at

us are outraged by what appears to be america's latest tactic in its war on terror entrapping people it suspects my plan terrorist acts in the future were able at night explains how most ninety five percent of convictions. for this crime slums have been arrested prosecuted and imprisoned for attempting to carry out terrorist attacks however this study just released finds that the us government has played a major role in orchestrating most of those so-called terror plots in order to exaggerate the domestic threat of muslim extremism when examining the department of justice is a list of three hundred ninety nine terrorism cases the study found that ninety four percent of those cases involved preemptive prosecution that's a practice of targeting those who officials deem predisposed to committing crimes before an actual crime is committed in some instances the study finds that defendants were targeted purely for their religious affiliations and ideological

beliefs in other instances the f.b.i. used an agent provocateur work to recruit vulnerable individuals moring them with cash and coursing them into carrying out a terrorist attack that was set up by the f.b.i. now federal informant would provide the fake explosives and instruct the defendant on what to do this is otherwise known as entrapment now the one hundred seventy five page report was released by project salaam a group providing support and legal advocacy for muslims one of the co-authors told me his findings make it difficult to believe in the integrity of the u.s. justice system and federal agencies what they're trying to do was to convince the american public that there is this large army of potential terrorists that they should all be very very scared about they are very much engaged in that world wide surveillance and this surveillance is very valuable to them they can learn an awful lot about all sorts of things and in

a sense control it's control issues and to their advantage and the entire legal justification for the depends on there being a war on terror without a war on. terror they have no right to do this so they keep this war on terror going they have to keep finding people and arresting them and locking them up and scaring everybody because without that they they cannot justify the kind of surveillance they're doing us surveillance as the public has learned is not just limited to the muslim citizens critics say unless there is public outcry over a government manufactured crime that too may eventually become common practice to target anyone very important artsy new york. state or to international next over here now these talks to war correspondent john pilger on the escalating situation in ukraine.
