washington continues to offer excuses for kerry's actions. our view is that the iranian security forces operations have been moderate and measured they thin taking steps to maintain calm within their own country. though many say that the ukrainian military is justified in his actions the country's parliament is hardly unanimous on the issue president poroshenko is praise for the army was met with a role the chilly response early this week i mean. it should be not altogether sure was. i was a man i mean there desirable going to be people predicted national arab thousand while anti-government forces have pulled out of the cities of slavyansk and kramatorsk which were hubs of resistance and the key

targets of kiev's crackdown well they withdrew towards the regional capital done yet on the city of of goal. thousands are gathered in support of antique air forces in central square they waved banners calling for pace and appealed to kiev to stop its assault on the country's east refugees from the devastated city of slovyansk uncovered tossed into new to flow into the region's capital and here is what they told r.t. . they were ready to. do their movie theater many more of those are pretty don't want. the. media you can have you there you the theater is a. lot of the. future of human. in the meantime ukraine's national guard says it will come after fighters who are refusing to lay down their arms as well as others who help them in the newly retaken cities here's mark sloboda an international affairs lecturer at moscow

state university the reports out this morning is that they are already going door to door looking for people who might have remained behind who helped or are perceived as having helped these self-defense forces and the local say they are being executed we have seen some very grim results in the previously occupied towns most of the young middle aged men are rounded up what exactly is being done with them whether they are being executed or taken off is not entirely known we have heard the defense minister of the ukraine several weeks ago speak openly and without even any attempting to hide it that all of the citizens of eastern ukraine when these towns and cities are reconquered would be taken two or three women children and men would be taken to filtration camps not even really trying to hide the connection with concentration camps of course. there's lots more on the fast

moving developments in ukraine on our website also there find out how a leading u.s. news channel proved its geographic knowledge of the stricken region might not be its strong. point. right to see. and i think. now this week the leader of the jihadist group now known as the islamic state made a rare public appearance and iraqi officials are still working to verify the video in which the server declared head of the renegade state delivers a speech in the country's second largest city but the extremist leader was widely

mocked when it turned out he was sporting a watch that appeared to be worth thousands of dollars the extremist group has been strengthening its positions capturing key oil fields in the region one of the latest major gains was the resource rich sites on the iraqi syrian border so let's take a look at just how much land the islamic state group already has under its control just take a look at the black area substantial area on our map well bad is the self-proclaimed caliphate struggling the border between syria and iraq the success of the islamic state group has seen a number of rebel factions in syria now pledge their allegiance to it and the group is eager to show off its military might to persuade other fighters to join the course a parade of tanks and other combat vehicles some of them originally supplied by america was filmed in eastern syria iraq insists it can defeat the jihadists but as lisa catherine of explains that could prove to be a tough task. to harvest formally known as isis this week to clear the completion

of their islamic state this but up with a sham but now it's all one country there is no more or less. the iraqi army meanwhile is fighting back in televised news briefings the government takes a victorious tone. from the information that the isis leaders have started to flee but on the ground we've found little evidence to back up those claims this used to be territory controlled by the central government but the iraqi army fled this area the same day that the city of mosul was captured by isis millions of dollars of u.s. made equipment abandoned uniforms shed in haste. now this looks like a hat a breakout from the special forces the iraqi special forces this is obviously a vest that they discarded left behind they dressed in civilian clothes ran away

essentially abandoned their posts and that's how in part isis has been able to see it so much territory so quickly the fighting has displaced hundreds of thousands of iraqis that many are scarred by the two thousand and three invasion and describe a sense of deja vu with the current crisis again from two thousand and three it's coming back so it's a disaster actually things are getting worse we want to understand first hand how this war was playing out we're on our way right now to one of the front lines of the village and some abdulla up until about five days ago when isis insurgents leave the country but entire territory village that's on a strategic road from mosul the next several of the provinces that they really wanted answers to and the benchmark lost soldiers have been able to clear bits of it but they're still clashes ongoing and that's what we're getting right now. at the base commanders take us to an outcome. overlooking an area controlled by

militants this is the very first offensive position against the isis militants just two kilometers that way every single day there's been sniper fire attempts by the jihad is to enter this territory if they can push through the defensive position than they would potentially take your coop and move into the territories and that could be a massive battle just waiting to happen moments later we have to leave and we just got word that the isis just might be moving forwards all the soldiers have been told to evacuate this area we're going to get out before things get intense we know that there was clashes last night and we definitely don't want to be here is that once again it was apparent just how fluid a conflict this was the front lines change daily and no matter what military gains each day he may bring if the iraqi civilians who lose as the war rages on to see catherine oprah on t.v. cuckoo province iraq. doesn't come for you know the big guns in japan the military ambitions are growing fast in the country as it lifts the sixty about them fighting

overseas and gears up for its first export in decades more months coming up. on the trials and tribulations of buying local a french journalist tried to get by for a year only on products that were made in france we'll let you know how we got on after this short break. this is what we do kill people and break things. we can see something as simple as people playing soccer you can see individual players and you can see the ball. you could almost see is facial expression you can see he is. maybe he cursed us or maybe he. he asked. for forgiveness for.

there must be near certainty that no civilians will be killed or in. this immediate leave us so we leave that maybe. cause soon potions to cure the other party visible. questions that no one is asking with the guests bed soon deserve answers from it's all on politicking only on our t.v. . you're watching the weekly here on our t international nation coming in that an israeli air strike is its central gaza killing two palestinians this shortly after israeli police arrested suspects over the murder of

a palestinian teenager whose autopsy suggests that he was burned a life. his death sparked fierce clashes between the arab population and israeli law enforcement boys believed to be murdered over the killing of three jewish teenagers whose bodies were discovered last monday the incident sent tensions soaring in the region within days israel arrested hundreds of palestinians and raided thousands of homes while trying to find a jewish teen killers and a senior adviser for the palestinians biggest political party told us that israel's response was over the top. because this is that of military occupation of a country against. people and civilians because of sweeping koroma zation it's very clear that israel has exploited this incident to really politicize the event in a way to reveal its real intentions and its real intention is the block to block the emergence of

a palestinian state is to make sure that gaza will never come back to the west bank and palestinians would remain for fragmented and the tools to it in this world is not that of a state sponsor of the terrorism and the excessive use of force as you have just shown have you heard any word that there is a state that will simply kidnap an entire nation lisi xion communities because there are investigations and allegations so this whole collective punishment approach that israel has been using has to stop. and these pictures you can see now are limited tense situation worse they appear to show israeli police officers beating the cousins of the murdered teen who's an american citizen the recent crackdowns on palestinians followed the brutal killing of israeli teenagers which would give an emotional coverage across western channels. sense that there will be some retaliation for these deaths it's becoming increasingly apparent that his promise to make cameras pay for the three teenagers found dead on monday there is

a huge amount of grief at the discovery the grim discovery of the three bodies of those israeli teenagers late yesterday israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the three teenagers were murdered in cold blood by what he described as animals what the western mass media did not report on of the hundreds of palestinian families whose heartfelt grief for their lost children is been forgotten more than fifteen hundred palestinian children have died six thousand also injured by israeli forces since two thousand as our figures here show and now works out at one palestinian child killed every three days but local activists fear that the international media repeatedly chooses to turn a blind eye to israel's deadly record israeli army has been killing palestinians in cold blood for several years we are talking about thousands and thousands of

palestinians were killed by the israeli army and terms of thousands of people who were injured during forty seven years of military occupation there isn't really an army now is demolishing houses and the actions of collective punishments are continuing also in the form of gaza which the israeli army is using to provoke reactions from palestinians and then. be the actions as cause or as the reason for their or positive behavior in gaza strip and then i've got a. this is and palestinian territories. there are more spy strains developing between germany and the united states it turns out there was a double agent in burns midst he's accused of feeding data to the n.s.a. you get the full story but ulti dot com. also online for you this real structure hugely powerful soviet era lightning generator he's coming back online but now is powering tourism instead check it out on our web site.

now this week japan's ruling parties agreed to lift a self-imposed ban on overseas military operations for the first time since the second world war but protests spread quickly with people showing their anger in some rather extreme ways the video we're about to show you contains some graphic scenes one activist even setting himself on fire he was taken to hospital with severe burns and ten thousand people rallied in tokyo where angry mobs clashed with police and the prime minister's office the protesters criticised the government for failing to hold a referendum on whether or not to expand japan's military reach. defense unless they say the changes could affect the balance of power in the region as japan can now help its allies fighting overseas and this comes at a time when the u.s. is deploying extra troops to the area with more than eighty thousand military personnel spread across dozens of bases in the asia pacific region while some

experts don't see the shift is particularly important others say it could actually make all the difference in a potential future conflict. or one of the more. they're worried. we want your characters are all this move by the japanese is prime minister to essentially change the constitution by c.e.o. we have two very powerful countries china japan and japan is has a military alliance with the united states so if circe any kind of dust up between japan and tried then we're talking back to nuclear powers butting heads and i'm not a little surprised that people are not maybe more concerned about the situation

then they are they have to have two thirds majority from both houses and then it will become a referendum for the people what are they has done circumvented all of that and declared that his resolution can't just reinterpret the constitution and that's a very dangerous tower even if you agree with what he's doing the process by which he's doing it is simply in the. front of some more global news for you now starting with details of two trucks that are slammed into a van in southwest china killing four people and injuring five more firefighters in the sichuan province managed to get out all the surviving passengers who were then taken to hospital and investigations underway into what caused the accident. meanwhile two separate attacks on neighboring coastal districts in kenya of killed more than twenty people in the first assault gunmen stormed a police station and releasing several detainees some of them linked to previous

terror acts and the second heavily armed militants raided a training center in the village of hindi the islamist group al-shabaab as it was behind both those attacks. now to try and spur jobs and businesses were often told to buy local kind of tricky though in this globalized world but one frenchman has given it a real go read a caution i went to find out how he fared surviving soley on french made products for almost a year. how french can a person really in this day and age the answer is ninety six point nine percent if you ask french journalist special car the put a ten month ban on anything for it because it was. 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 are 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 france but it's not. but benjamin's biggest surprise was that shoppers probably don't know whether french flag goods are valid from. today's rules of the european union a crazy if you take the should for example and you just so the buttons in front you have the right to put a maid in from it it's the last operation the product undergoes that matters. even though it's not hard to find economic patriots like benjamin cart it is hard to support the french economy according to some experts who claim that when she's european commitments are opening the door to point competition and force in french companies out of business. we estimate that in friends there's roughly one plant

closing every day between two hundred forty and two hundred sixty plants a year absolute protectionism like in 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 the industrialization comes from globalization but it doesn't happen 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 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. 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 marina cost of reports in from paris artsy . i'm. news for you here and international we expose the dogs side of doctors involved in the torture and abuse of detainees. when people talk about human rights violations is it involves some pro western protesters getting beaten up in response the mainstream media is usually to bomb somebody somewhere so good thing they haven't picked up a story from detroit that the u.n. is calling a human rights violation residents of the motor city or well sadly the former motor

city who are hundred fifty dollars or more behind in their water bills are getting their water shut off completely the water and sewage department is five billion dollars in debt and that is a justification to crack down on deadbeats on the surface the seems like it open and shut case of course everyone has the right to water especially detroit which is near huge bodies of fresh water that other cities could only dream of but on the other hand if the poor don't pay for water then us taxpayers will be paying for it for them and that's not fair i think this is not so much a case of a right to water but a right to disemployment a corruption free city government back when people in detroit had good salaries and a government that wasn't flagrantly corrupt they would have any problems paying for their water bills but that's just my opinion.

with the economic ups and downs in the final. day on the deal sang i and the rest because i think me being a prickly. after seven years in prison mohammed jawad was finally released eric montell though kept his promise to be in kabul when the young man arrived and his mother couldn't even recognize him because he had physically changed so much because he was just a boy and he apparently had a certain shape to the back of his head from either a fall what have you and she. was in total disbelief until she felt the shape of his head and then at that point she knew in the collapsed on the fore.
