this is the lead has footage from the eastern ukrainian city of slavyansk where the truce does not seem to be holding. weren't going to they started firing from the mountain with the ukrainian troops they hit residential areas of the city it went on for forty five minutes i've seen it all a couple photos on my phone the burn scars the destroyed marketplace houses riddled with holes three people were killed and many more wounded and we haven't searched all the buildings yet. the ceasefire was breached by both sides several times throughout that week people in the city of kramatorsk claim their city was shelled on numerous occasions the village of freefall noya saw a spike of violence with one woman reported killed there and in sloviansk a woman and her twenty six year old son perished in army shelling. self defense forces took control of a military controlled checkpoint on confirm reports claim the army then launched a counterattack but lost twenty of its own soldiers while sharing close to the

russian border so a checkpoint hit by a mortar shell. hit hardest by the conflict are those who cannot fend for themselves as artie's maria phenomena find out i don't know if an age caught in the conflict so. these came home for abundant special needs children on the outskirts of lugansk aims to be an oasis of calm and to include. children here have food toys but most importantly love. there are eight to six children they scare house all younger than three years old it's been a home and cozy home you have who are all of them that once war reached its walls it's no longer safe. mines and shells lend just a couple of kilometers away. and while the youngster had no concept of the danger

for the adults it's a different story now son did it as a lordship but honest it's so hard actually more than half our kids cannot move there either too small or they have motor problems some have cerebral palsy they need special care and even if we want to evacuate them we need a very special place just like ours it's very hard to do. your job atlanta a mother herself tries to remain positive but it's no easy matter no one can say how dangerous it becomes when they start firing here an internet compelling saved in boss kids was launched to draw attention to this particular case as well as many other orphanages and care homes that have suddenly found themselves on the front line and where the sounds of shelling and firing have increasingly replaced gentle lullabies regional lugansk in eastern ukraine. while the ukrainian president might seem willing to a pole

a cease fire and bring it by piece there are groups within the kiev authorities that rely too much on aggression that's according to senior lecturer in international nations at moscow state university marks the boda the government such as it is in kiev has very limited control it depends to a large extent still on these nationalist paramilitary groups for its survival its hold on power in kiev and it has been afraid to challenge them we saw a trade union meeting in kiev attacked by an arm of the right sector mob and with complete impunity we have seen this repeatedly that they act they attack individuals groups building churches throughout the country and the government does nothing to rein them in and this holds true on the battlefield as well members of the national guard are proving out very point in kiev in a rally demanding an end to the truce and the resumption of the military operation

these are the latest pictures we've got from ukraine's capital the crowd is currently on independence square which saw a bloody government protests earlier this year nationalist flags can be seen being waved as well and we will be following this story as it develops. fleeing from the conflict in the start tens of thousands of ukrainian refugees the u.n. estimates over one hundred thousand people have crossed the border with russia since the beginning of the military operation but the u.s. has once again expressed died about those numbers saying the source is not credible . since the start of two thousand and fourteen one hundred and ten thousand ukrainians have arrived in russia we just have seen no evidence to support that we don't believe they're credible we're watching we just don't think that the hundreds of thousands number is credible we don't have anything to cooperate but this is the u.n. this isn't the russians this is the united nations and there's this is an agency

that you guys give millions and millions of dollars to and there are now long we don't have anything to back up that number matt coming out a look at the deal let's firmly realigned ukraine towards europe but i'm a cost there's still no end in sight for the conflict in the east one which washington accuses rochelle finding but as we reported later america's sanctions plans are hitting a snag at home. poland's foreign minister has been secretly taped comparing his country's relationship with the us to a sexual act according to a leaked by a polish line magazine wrote of course he believes his country is essentially pleasing america with little in return which according to him makes warsaw a subservient partner in fact he says it gets worse not only is the alliance with america worthless but it is elian needed poland's biggest in the ebers russia and germany. moscow was somewhat sympathetic to his comments though saying the cross

language was most likely a response to similar hurtful comments made by the us deputy secretary of state so that would be great i think to help blew this thing and have the u.n. help glue it and you know the e.u. but it's not just the us the polish foreign minister is less than satisfied sikorsky pulling no punches when speaking about the u.k. prime minister's dealings with euro skeptics suggesting david cameron budget pressure and went soft when he should've stayed hard. as if that wasn't enough of course he went on to remember other times he believes cameron misfired politically saying he's not likely to change needless to say the embarrassingly frank diplomatic conversation has caused quite a stir here's what some of the commentators we talked to are saying that means star and so we're just obvious far for everyone here in poland for most of the analysts as does voiced the opinion of the two. by most of the population here that's really

it raises other troubling questions about the judgment of a man who is after all his country's chief diplomatic representative who aspires to be the chief diplomatic representative of the entire european union and the governments he has been so scathing about the governments of britain and the united states the very countries which have supported him throughout his career into which he owes so much i think it shows that there is a real awareness among the circles of power in poland as to what the relationship with the united states has really brought them which is nothing. lots more news and views coming right up including. resistance is futile we look at how the heavily armed swat units are being used to reach suburban houses across the u.s. spreading fear and fatalities along the way. syrian rebels could soon benefit from some half a billion dollars the u.s. plans to splash on their equipment and training following months of pressure from washington war hawks president obama asked congress to approve of aid to the assad

fighters just a year ago washington gave the green light for non-lethal aid to reach so-called moderate rebels but later ended up in the hands of jihad as any when america was forced to suspend the aid wherever earlier this month america well they admit it's been covertly sending actual weapons to the opposition on experts warn the u.s. has not learned by its own mistakes the obama policy from the beginning has been for regime change as we saw in libya as we saw in ukraine and we've seen in other parts of the world and so now the administration is going to be providing if by the congress higher quality weapons to the rebels but the rebels are into mission with the intake can interchange and to connect with all the jihad and the jihad control large part of the territory they control large checkpoints the united states appears to have

a schizo front in foreign policy there they're saying they demand unity in iraq behind the central government which is fighting what they call islamic extremists from sis and at the same time they're funding these same armed groups in syria to take down an independent nationalist and sovereign government in syria what the u.s. is doing and has been doing this finally in money guns and more occupation tools in a region that it considers to be vital because it's resource rich that's about it. iraq has learned the hard way how us aid can be used for all the wrong reasons right now some american hardware including several humvees are being used by extremists that are the equipment was captured after jihad is to control of iraqi army where isis extremists are continuing their advance in baghdad with fierce fighting around fifty kilometers from the from the capital there's also disturbing evidence as to who is being forced to join the militants ranks as you can see in this video boys armed with automatic rifles are traveling in an isis convoy some children are also reportedly being used the snipers by to hobbyists and it all

equates to iraq being pushed to the brink reports the chaos spreading across the country and eerie calm in the kurdish capital the city is just sixty kilometers from the isis front line but a downtown air bill it was business as usual kurdistan has often felt like a separate country altogether even at the height of iraq's most violence and bloodiest moments now but the current crisis treading the country to pieces it's closer than ever to becoming one kurdish soldiers are now in control of territory that used to be disputed but no one here seems to think that harvest would dare march on them. but i have full faith in the forces we won let anything happen. for some the prospect of a divided iraq was a welcome one do you think that iraq will remain one country as we know what's after this crisis may be this it may be that iraq will have to be divided will have

area and the sunnis and shias will have there is no one in kurdistan is worried we have oil we have a strong army. they may help or oil but fuel is running scarce for days now iraqi forces battled with isis for control of the country's largest oil refinery this is one of the first things you notice here in erbil these massive gas lines some of the cars have been here for hours since the morning many people in fact camped out overnight to try to get online so they can get gas frustrated residents line up to get their share authorities have limited each individual to thirty leaders that's less than what it takes to fill two tanks the people we've spoken to said there haven't been lines like this for fuel since the outbreak of the u.s. led invasion back in two thousand and three and although there are shortages here in erbil parts of northern iraq have run out of gas even on the black market and so people are stocking up they say that they don't know what will bring the fear but

it'll get a lot worse before it gets better that's a sentiment we heard from many here and it's not just the news fleeing the violence we encountered shia refugees to october job or came here six days ago from baghdad and in baghdad the situation has gone from bad to worse and people are arming themselves in getting ready to fight one another are all they see in the future is bloodshed and violence if something doesn't change iraq will be a country of orphans and we don't like to see caffein of erbil iraq. or news coming off you ofter a short break. this is the media leave us so we leave the media. by the sea ocean security play your part of the musical. pushes that no one is asking with the guests that you

deserve answers from it's all on politicking only on our t.v. . economic pressure. for. now a. part. time .

seventeen minutes into the program welcome back ukraine finally signed a treaty agreement with the e.u. this week the failure of the country's previous leader to do so is what sparked the ukrainian crisis leading to the current civil conflict where the new leader insists this is just the first step of closer ties with europe we see that. ukraine is european under the forty nine article will have an opportunity. for the membership perspective this is a very important character for ukraine to work up. a financially challenge europe still doesn't appear to be quite ready for ukraine the use commissioner for enlargement to say kiev still needs to prove its european credentials and enact

reforms the block's energy commissioner has warned that be a light for greece is peanuts compared to the billions brussels will have to find to save kiev's eeling economy the president of the european commission sees the e.u. is not ready to integrate a country like crane op this stage and not sentiment is also echoed by the foreign minister of europe's powerhouse germany which comes as no surprise to financial expert patrick e. on ukraine which last year was in a catastrophic position how that signed a free trade association this year is going to associate with the european union out the point when it's on the brink already of economic disaster this is a cop those strong move for the ukrainian economy the only winners i do this are a few sadly deluded egos whether they are in brussels whether they are in washington who believe some horror of that they've achieved a great deal of political victory for the people of ukraine there are no jobs to be

hired here there's only going to be jobs and also. from the outset washington's been blaming russia for funding the conflict in ukraine and threatening sanctions on lest it stops but america's plans are facing staunch opposition from western businesses and here's why rush it being an emerging market with a growing income has been quite attractive for u.s. companies the possibility of being cut off from the market is making american business bosses nervous but just who is involved in russia well boeing's buys nearly a third of its titanium there the country is also one of the fastest growing markets for pepsi u.s. car manufacturers also have a huge interest in the russian market general motors ford well they sell tens of thousands of vehicles here last year alone the chamber of commerce on the national association of manufacturers have launched an ad campaign to explain just why new sanctions will backfire they say it'll leave u.s.

companies scrambling to keep up with firms from other countries and earlier we spoke to the president of the franco russian chamber of commerce and industry. it should have been because they actually. put it you could see white no. talking about it going to be called sanctions so we need two ways over but. they should not do it to the again they should use diplomacy to do so do you put me in the place he's using you know taking him to host g.'s companies with you with your pin or french company. something which is unacceptable for us what the sanctions are doing is isolating the united states' economy instead of isolating russia they were meant to isolate russia but given the trend of world trade for all of the exports that russia has and for diplomacy there isis they're actually doing in isolating the united states it's a very strange business logic it doesn't make sense logically so it has to be

political austria too doesn't seem to be all that enthusiastic about more sanctions at vienna and moscow this week struck a major gas pipeline deal with president vladimir putin in attendance on the issue of ukraine came up during a light hearted exchange i don't know internal but feel tend to put it in poutine. was the just. jealous that you have. to hold at the. tail end. and called the name. but the sight stream gas pipeline deal between austrian russia isn't sitting all that well with washington find out why on our website.
