a day before a ceasefire between ukrainian army and self-defense fighters expires our correspondent refer to as the details well we know that tenet told it cleland seventy year old cameraman of one of russia's main t.v. channels pay to be or the first died after he received a bullet to his toe mark while working in the city often ask in eastern ukraine he was nor to even at the frontline when it happened he was with his reporter and sound assistant they were driving towards one of the city's military bases they were in a cortege followed by a boss kerry the mothers of ukrainian consecrates and there were also another car there carrying journalists from russia's life news and they correspondent has been reporting from the scene that the shooting started very unexpectedly and the quarter was targeted to and the firing started at the moment when the cars were approaching the military base itself for the first time the journey style while covering the conflict to earlier had any tally in photographer and he was sister

and were caught in a crossfire in the town of slovyansk and just several days ago two russian journalists sound assistant and reporter were hit by multiple not far from where we are now several kilometers from the city of lugansk and they also died at the scene which is the very last week well that is even sadder news has been granted happens at the time when cease fire is announced in eastern ukraine. president putin along with his german and french counterpart says called on ukrainian leader petro poroshenko to extend the ceasefire that expires at seven pm g.m.t. on monday they held a phone conversation overnight despite the truce sporadic fighting continues across eastern ukraine on sunday the city of slavyansk came under fire church in the residential area were attacked and at least one civilian killed are also

a series of explosions at an arms depot in donetsk no soldiers were there at the time and the ukrainian military said on sunday that checkpoint was attacked earlier our correspondent in the region maria for national went to see just how exhausting constant conflict has been for the local population. this is a bomb shelter watch out it was built decades ago when ukraine was part of the u.s. to start at the height of the cold war and it seems these dark times are returning to these part of the war old the enemy may be different but these abandoned sides are now coming back to life seriously as they say if you want peace prepare for war the diem of the ganske resident volunteered to clean up soviet era bunkers they could provide a crucial defense against army air raids and to refine he says we speak to the dean during what is supposed to be a ceasefire the us which is why we're working here the infrastructure is destroyed

so we're taking the most important first steps to fix it and allow people to shelter here similar work is currently underway at many similar size all over the city about one hundred bomb shelters are already open. what was going to brazil and this is what realm of the you were this not only this pulled on me of the role of rather the issue credible and i just thought that there were about the last one more that your boy there's a rose to come who are not but there's a lady but i must say. the way i am that bubbly and i want her with but i feel awful for mum for me if there would be up early at this little girl more in your home office with where we're through with go with come out of there for probably a minute there was also a kitchenette with some basic food and first aid kits and you know doesn't wasn't too good for board and suddenly we hear was sounds like distant shooting daughters

organization not all mentally some of that are doing in. there are through the with the households in the us after which all but at least when you should have a keyboard. when we film vitalis daughter noster stops by. she also heard what we did. there's this guy i was leader with explosions when we were walking home through a filter then there were sirens and everyone started running away it was terrifying the same thing happened later that night this is fire expires in just a few hours time and no one can say for sure whether these long abandoned bomb shelters will be needed again. in lugansk eastern ukraine. you see the dramatic images from the ukrainian conflict for yourself by heading to our web site of the. jihadist militants

fighting in syria and iraq have declared the creation of an islamist state spanning parts of both countries the now notorious al-qaeda breakaway group known as the islamic state of iraq and syria or isis is behind that declaration as you can see on our map here the territory covers the north of syria and the eastern half of iraq which is home to rich or fields so the question arises where exactly does isis get the funding that it needs in order to seize power in the region well it's thought that the group as powerful sponsors in the gulf states which fund its activities isis is also involved in smuggling extortion and bank robberies in the course of its rapid advance on baghdad the group took control of stockpiles of u.s. made weaponry and even washington has played its role in the rise of isis as artie's marina porton our expense. he was terrorist organization known as isis is

over taking out his brain as public enemy number one sunni islamic militants are unleashing brutality and bloodshed in iraq but its next door in syria during a three year civil war where the extremist group got its start we are where we are because we armed the syrian rebels we have been fighting alongside al-qaeda fighting alongside isis isis is now emboldened in two countries but here's the. this is in syria we're on the same sort of the war so those who want to get involved to stop isis in iraq are allied with isis in syria that is the real contradiction to this whole policy according to reports the us government may have inadvertently played a direct role in strengthening extremists there also allegations that the united states may have been involved in some of the training of the insurgents at a training camp in jordan so the saudis the others are directly

involved in this regime change policy in syria and in iraq and united states has helped and created these conditions and this will cause chaos and expanding war in the region according to german magazine der spiegel americans were still in jordan in march of last year training up to twelve hundred members of the free syrian army to use anti-tank weapon mary we have spent a lot of time trying to work with a moderate opposition in syria now the white house is ready to spend a lot of money the obama administration has requested half a billion dollars to arm and train syrian rebels fighting to topple president bashar assad u.s. officials claim only appropriate that it members of the moderate syrian opposition will receive american weapons and ammo problem is it's not always easy to differentiate between the moderate and terrorist here's u.s. senator john mccain posing with members of isis the photo is now reportedly being

circulated by the group as proof of their legitimacy not to be disputed the legitimacy of isis is gruesome behavior violence so horrific some report osama bin ladin looks like a gentle soul in comparison as the newest group of terrorists is growing stronger and gaining more ground throughout the arab world their safe haven remains in syria where the why. house is promising to send more weapons with the goal of establishing marina porton i.r.t. washington d.c. . and it's not just gulf countries or the u.s. behind the rise of the militants operating in syria we spoke to dr hussein chief in the middle east technical university he says that turkey has been widely supported to harvest in its bid to undermine assad. you know that the turkish government in particularly in syria is. entertaining drunk and close listen to

this from a group three took this government until now has not used the word terrorist for this was about the rather speaking about the certain elements of the islamic groups we know that the turkish government has been friendly. groupings and groupings also abuse of course this turkish sympathy of the turkish government. well the answer is attack on iraq has opened up the already why divisions in its society there is religious strife between sunni's and she is along with the separatist sentiments among kurds in the north and then there are other minorities like christians and turkmen who are in a dark position as our correspondent catherine off reports i. am here exhausted terrified with nowhere to go these are wrong newest refugees in a single day tens of thousands of iraqi christians were forced to flee their homes

after clashes erupted between isis militants and polish forces. all of a sudden we heard shelling and explosions we didn't know who was attacking us we just knew we had to get out there wasn't any time to panic most families are going to get nothing but the clothes and their backs up food clothes medicines important papers everything we left behind i don't know how we'll get by someone donated those blankets and pillows and that's all we have they found safety on the outskirts of the kurdish capital but not much else temperatures through our past a hundred degrees fahrenheit there is power from a generator in a nearby theater but fuel is running out. it's hard to believe that just yesterday this was a completely empty parking lot overnight it's been turned into a makeshift refugee camp. the family has fled in the paddock an entire village emptied overnight the volunteers are doing their best to help however they can but

supplies are limited and more and more people keep coming most came from carrick hoshi an ancient christian community on the outskirts of the isis controlled city of mosul it was seen as one of the last safe havens for iraq's do enduring christian population not anymore families like this one are twice displeased they left baghdad at the height of the sectarian civil war. there is no safe place left in the rock in baghdad they used to slaughter you for being a christian now i'm assuming it's the same thing there is no one to protect us. this is the sound of a country torn apart sunni militants are sweeping across northwest a lot in baghdad and the south shiite militias are digging in the kurds to are on the move reclaiming long disputed territory iraq maybe one hundred but for how long that actually the sectarian. divide it's real it's becoming more violent

and that's why you need to separate the communities and have everybody take care of their own. in kirkuk province we need a leader of iraq's minority turkmen community he's taking us to meet the newly formed militia they face extermination from sunni militants he tells me but he doesn't trust the kurds to protect them either. which might be disarmed. we arrived to find a deserted village the families have all fled for safety these men stayed behind to defend the land. go up they used to be drivers teachers farmers and businessmen they took up arms two weeks ago after sunni extremists slaughtered dozens of their people in a nearby village. no one came to protect us when they attacked not the iraqi army

and not the person or god it was a wake up call now we are here to defend ourselves we have enough weapons and we'll fight until the last drop of blood as. determined but outnumbered and outgunned facing an uncertain future in an increasingly fractured iraq lucy catherine of kuku province iraq. still to come for you to sound the taste all free running palestinian teenagers struggling in the military occupation of poverty find joy in jumping the cool way. also how french can you see what happens when a man sets out to live only on fronts made products but. right close to. the first street. and i think you're.

industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our democracy albus. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across several we've been a hydrogen right hand full of transnational corporations that will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once told just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem try rational debate and real discussion critical issues facing up to find her job ready to join the movement then walk in the big picture.

welcome back you're watching r.t. international now is that anything that money called by well apparently not online where even national leaders are being put up for sale and as aunties or goldfish can all found out that's not even the strangest laws. people can buy and sell or trade almost anything on e bay from britney spears through bubble gum to supercars and even someone's life one man in south africa seems to have taken things to the next level placing a lot to auction the country's president the description of the law says jacob zuma has five years' experience as the president is in great health has eight wives and eighteen children the user nicknamed average joe has placed a lot added he wanted to trade president zuma for someone with similar skills just cheaper to run and more clever many south africans have indeed been criticizing the president for becoming a bit too costly for the budget for instance he spent twenty seven million dollars just to restore his country house which was fixed with a new tennis court of football pitch helli bad and other high life accessories

despite many in the country still not being connected to the sewer system while around thirteen million are thought to live on just two dollars a day even though trading humans is a legal this isn't the first time a living person has been put up for grabs on e bay recently a ten year old girl from england tried to sell her own grandmother describing her as annoying what could only the biggest bid reach twenty thousand dollars but was taken down shortly after a while one australian man actually sold his own life the lot included his house his motorbike and a car his business and even his friends and archer separated with his partner and decided to start afresh his old life fetched three hundred five thousand u.s. dollars and now he's reported to live on an island near panama with a new girlfriend so really almost anything can be found on even a partially eaten group cheese sandwich said to bear the image of the virgin mary fetching a biblical twenty eight thousand dollars no wonder presidents are being listed as

these boys have plenty of those. sometimes i feel stressed and i want to break free so i practice it be great thing about bark or is that you can do it whenever you want and it's all dean and his friends were present a new breed of palestinian youth modern internet savvy and connected to the global social media sphere. but there are. other things that i watched a movie called be thirteen me and a friend started doing part of course we watched movies on you tube and we practiced alone you practice in order to be professional and famous and while the seems an extreme activity in a deeply conservative society even their parents see the upside. of this from our parents did not accept it in the beginning because it is dangerous but after they saw our progress after they saw they were getting stronger in going away from smoking and problems they started to support us. for these boys park or is more

than just a sport it's a form of resistance another letter said we are the for the little courts that we do this sport in jerusalem to say here we are here police the unions were alive and doing well. but that doesn't prevent the israelis from trying to stop them over lebanon how to get the curation tried hard to prevent us from doing this there are a set of us but we can't get out and room never stop and across the border just like they jerusalem brothers gaza's adrenaline junkies get baby fix from jumping israeli hurdles filled with started doing it in our club in two thousand and eleven but it was a truck in two thousand and twelve of us all we had to train in the street even israeli strikes don't ski gardens group a free one is it takes more than a pillar of smoke to stop the slaughter policy r r t east jerusalem. it has been some of the world headlines now hundreds of people gathered for

a rally outside the b.b.c. studios in the scottish city of glasgow demonstrators voiced their anger over the news organizations coverage of the upcoming independence referendum they accuse the b.b.c. of being biased in favor of british unity. and swear suspected of fighters of attack several villages in northern nigeria reports say dozens of civilians have been killed by her on which six to overthrow the government and establish an islamic state as unleashed a bloody campaign in recent months killing hundreds and they still hold captive scores of schoolgirls abducted in april. shooting in the us city of new orleans is left nine people injured two of them critically the victims were caught in a crossfire during a shootout between two men in the tourist area around or been street police are still looking for the suspects involved in that gun battle. and heavy rains battering southern china of course flash floods and landslides over

the weekend in some parts traffic was brought to a standstill as roads were swallowed by rushing water the downpour started on thursday of last week and forecasts say that bad weather will continue in coming days. and politicians often call on people to buy domestic in order to save local jobs and industry but in the modern world is that even possible where one power a space journalist trying to survive on only french made products for ten months. went to find out how he got on. how frank skinned a person really is in this day and age the answer is ninety six point nine percent if you ask french journalist specially the put a tent and then for most of us the. rules of this experience were to get rid of everything that was not french and only use products that god most of their added value on french soil with an average salary of one thousand eight hundred euros

a month i found myself in a situation where i had to buy everything again including furniture. inspired by a government plea to stick to french products to stem the conscience decades long industrial decline the problem is that there aren't many products left these days that a purely french what really surprised me is how much food we import each time i see a foreign product i think it's crazy because it could have been made in front but it's not. but benjamin's biggest surprise was that shoppers probably don't know whether french flag goods are really from. today's rules of the european union a crazy if you take the should for example and you just so the buttons in from you have the right to put a made in france label on it it's the last operation the product undergoes that matters. even though it's not hard to find economic patriots like benjamin it is hard to support the french economy according to some experts claim the point he's european commitments are opening the door to point competition and force in french

companies out of business. we estimate that in france there is roughly one plant closing every day between two hundred forty and two hundred sixty plants a year we estimate that there are between three hundred four hundred jobs in the industrial sector that disappeared daily and that every day there are five hundred to seven hundred people who pass under the poverty threshold as calculated by the national institute of the statistics that. industrialization comes from globalization but it doesn't have. because some bad guys took the jobs of the french but because the french companies think we will make more money by going abroad purchasing with patriotism takes some effort but shoppers here are giving it a go and the hope of saving local businesses and keeping them in the country retail experts say there's room for all just so long as they play fair. absolute protectionism like north korea is absolute everybody around the world agrees on

that but we go from one extreme to another where there is no regulation at all. one solution being put forward is to level the employment standards within the european union and boost local industries so that it's not cheaper to buy farm products or get them manufactured applaud. i love life and i love to benefit from things and i think it's impossible to live completely with french products it costs too much anyway and it takes a crazy amount of time because it's hard to find needless to say benjamin is now by n.p.r. his borders again but he's paying more attention to labels and ecological recycle products no matter where they come from marine the cost of our reporting from paris for r.t. . to stay with us here on r.t. international still to come for you a firsthand account from a former british soldier turned mercenary who tried to launch a coup that sin sophie and co and if you're watching this in the u.k. you can enjoy afshin rattansi takes his underground.
