intercept him and that is when he detonated his device now if you look around it's chaos this is late on a wednesday evening rush hour a lot of people in the streets. the car here completely destroyed this building also you can see there's down manch in the upper floors this must have been an incredibly powerful blast now if we walk this way we think this this blast really did happen so recently that they haven't had a moment to clean up the blood right here we don't know if this is. a place you probably people in. britain. we're not exactly sure what's happening there some kind of a commotion right now if you can see there's kurdish authorities here trying to keep calm but again of this just took place now the background to all of this very hotly contested city so there are kurds arabs sunnis shias christians turkmen this is a very violent city that has seen many explosions many clashes over the years since

the isis the islamic state in iraq and syria militants made their push in northern iraq the iraqi army have essentially fled from these areas allowing the kurds to come in and take control of a lot of people in the city are not happy about that and we're not sure whether this is a top was retribution perhaps for the kurds reasserting their control over this territory they belong claim this as their historic and cultural palatal. oh look. it's really not safe to be here the authorities have been shooting their weapons. into the air we're not sure what's going on but we're going to get out of here before any other tension erupt there hasn't even been a chance to verify the casualties verify exactly what was the target but we do believe that it was the kurdish political office yesterday we had a chance to speak with the governor of the cuckoo province he said that this was a very very calm city that there haven't been problems with the attacks that

security was actually getting better and one of the things that is very clear here from what we've seen today is that that's far from the case you see captain of your book. and as jihad is continue their push through iraq there's no part of society unaffected you are now looking at food it's apparently showing children joining the ranks of isis young boys or sin holding automatic rifles while traveling with a convoy of rebels human rights watch claims that in syria isis fighters are already recruiting children as snipers but their role in iraq has not been confirmed. the u.s. has an official request from baghdad to launch airstrikes in iraq but isis supporters have threatened to avenge any strike with attacks on americans can get the details on that story as well as live updates on be ongoing crisis in iraq on our team.

america's top business lobbies are ready to launch an ad campaign to stop us from slapping a fresh round of sanctions on russia washington's allies in europe or aca wings of threats but while the measures are designed to damage russia's economy they're also sending shivers through american companies are reports. as the u.s. and its western allies consider a third round of economic sanctions against russia the two biggest u.s. business organizations are warning that the move would long lasting damage to america's economy the u.s. chamber of commerce and the national association of manufacturers reportedly planned to run advertisements in the new york times the washington post and the wall street journal saying the only effect of additional sanctions would be to bar u.s. companies from foreign markets and business opportunities to firms from other countries u.s. companies fear that even temporary targeted sanctions against russia would damage

their export markets and poison relations with russian customers business leaders say potential restrictions on technology transfers would also harm u.s. energy companies that do business in russia this is precisely what moscow warned back in march when foreign minister lavrov said any sanctions imposed on russia would come back to hurt the united states the white house. administration has had frequent conversations with business leaders on the issue and understands their concerns but that the u.s. can't just go on with business as usual now the obama administration is threatening to impose more sanctions on russia despite its recent steps to deescalate the crisis in ukraine at the request of president vladimir putin russian lawmakers voted tuesday to revoke legislation allowing for the use of military forces in ukraine however it seems the white house is still expecting and demanding more from moscow. washington d.c.

. american companies risk losing a chunk of imports from russia and these are the top three things they by the possibility of being cut off from russia's markets is also worrying america's business leaders u.s. energy giant x. mobile has a nine hundred billion dollars deal with russia's rusnak hanging in the balance and six hundred million already invested j.p. morgan must also be holding its breath as the u.s. threatens to target a financial sector it earned fifty six million dollars in vestments banking fees in russia last year technology firm intel is also a keen investor it has spent around one billion u.s. dollars in russia over the last twenty years the next set of sanctions could target russia's energy sector but that could also be a big blow to u.s. and european energy giants who have a lot of interest in russia some at a g. bosses were spotted at the latest petroleum congress in moscow and here is the

c.e.o. of exxon mobil rex tillerson bob dudley had of british petroleum was also present as was the boss of norwegian oil giant stadol while many there said they wanted to keep politics away from business but this is really a good. relationship it's developing. according to the culture we don't believe this kind of problems we want peace. now some in the u.s. business community fear even temporary sanctions could end up in the long lasting damage to their russian exports economic aspart from the university of massachusetts richard wolfe says american companies have good reasons to be worried . the united states has direct interest in direct investments in russia it has made play ends to get access to russian energy it has made plans to get financial benefits by banking deals between russian banking and financial

officials and americans and if russia there's a reaction against pressure from the united states then there are ways in which all kinds of companies in the united states will suffer losses we don't know how bad they'll be if we don't know how long they'll last but we haven't a global capitalist crisis right now and companies are very worried even about relatively small threats to their ability to function and that's particularly true with financial interests which is where the tensions with russia could have some effect fleets of russian tanks rolling across ukraine's border this was the picture painted by the mainstream media despite numerous russian claims that it never intended to invade this narrative was sustained for months now the speaker of ukraine's parliament has shed some light on the source of the rhetoric. he says

intelligence was hitting the panic button around ten times a month even releasing the exact time the invasion was due to start their chain of who was the interim president at the time recalled sitting in the command post at full readiness every time the alarm was raised and this revelation makes plain some of the u.s. state department stands which was admittedly largely based on ukrainian sources of information. so there's two versions to a story so what makes you if you did you that there are u.s. officials there that could confirm what the government of ukraine which has a vested interest in presenting a narrative like that and said well are you just being what they are taking what they say and repeating that i will i will say that we of course talked to a range of people on the ground i don't have an us official i'm going to present all of you the latest figures show the u.s. economy has suffered its worst performance for five years but unexpected help was quick to come in just a few minutes see how
