have left a message and see workers being easier than ever before. cameras now going to. our . private house for. the jury. to get. through a narrow street we enter with looks like a densely populated area locals say at least six shells landed here just minutes ago that you look at the capitol hill it is the body of the movie going to that as you look back on this time it seems no one was killed after that. everyone is telling their product that said goodbye egypt that's a quote what the to look at but also to the court that we're looking at that's an optimal look at how close you would move if they would just go over to the well you know joseph ozment with the school you go you look good in all of those who do

the people do it for we do the work to do you need you really the only true religion is to do with the three who consider themselves area of new people coming north. cravats houses here. not only for a local told us they still could be unexploded mines here smoke was the new guinea is not so they really. just threw us in a blue more like a weasel so what album did much of the bomb didn't call them or what the fuck was ending up by the us called you it doesn't mean nobody should live in some way children will or thought that was in me of many people doing. this i see them as you must also see the multitude of warehouses to burn and no name is. whether anybody steer inside we find out that one man was taken by another ambulance.

to look after the telecom and it was good music i decided to leave that to the city but leave it to the. public roads at an advanced grade general hospital we find the man has suffered multiple burns and miss our rooms but doctors say he would leave the ambulance received another call this time no siree the doctor states because they could be targeted we're on our way to the area of fighting it took us less than seven minutes to arrive at the scene but it was still too late this young fighter died seconds after doctors arrived we rushed to the next address another shell another destroyed home we hear that a woman was killed here but before we learn any further detail the air raid siren makes us run to a nearby basement. most of them have been abandoned for years but recently people

have reopened them this is where we hear what happened to cincinnati we were right in whole or caught on camera who got on the scene and while the conflict continues to rage scenes like these are becoming an every day reality. nation otieno r.t. in eastern ukraine. various posting updates on the situation oligarch on her twitter feed follow her she chronicles life under siege. on sunday a russian man was killed by a shell fired from ukraine that landed in a small russian village on the border killing a father of four he reportedly bled to death in front of his family while two other women were seriously injured his visibly distraught daughter described what she saw .

he had. been used to do. this but. maintains it wasn't its forces that fired the shell though russia says such incidents could lead to ever irreversible consequences moscow also cited its obligation to defend its citizens from foreign threats. some of the day's other top stories israel's operation against gaza has now claimed the lives of more than one hundred seventy palestinians with no fatalities reported on the israeli side as operation protective age enters its seventh day people in gaza are fleeing in panic after warnings that more strikes are still to come here reports for r.t. on the night after more than one hundred rockets were fired from gaza israel targeted a home belonging to the family the target was tice. the director general of gaza's police force who himself survived and remains in critical condition he was lucky to

be among the forty two wounded and not the eighteen killed at gaza's main hospital was seventy year old name and one of the surviving injured. was said oh what has. russia lost three of her children in the targeting and i mean men and this is. what. the strikes took place at eleven pm mohammed lives just over the road from the batch family. home and abroad.

israel has used a policy of issuing warnings in some cases before making its targeting warnings either via s.m.s. cools in some cases leaflets but often roof knocking that is issuing warning drone strikes on the roof of the building before targeting it however in this case there was no warning of any kind and residents are adamant that israel must have known that over fifty people were in this area when it struck the way that was perpetrated it's a variation of basic principles of international law a traditional is very clear on this there should be principles to be preserved professional a-t. discrimination and humanity and nothing of these prisoners have been respected by the israeli army i asked a government spokesperson whether the targeting was justified given that israel's at war with hamas and is known to target the police everybody knows that the police

is a seven work and it's helping the people of service for the people he wasn't hiding actually since this conflict began last tuesday the health ministry counts eleven such incidents when family homes have been targeted with inhabitants and signed israel's november two thousand and twelve operation did not see an israeli ground invasion it ended after a day. with a ceasefire but it did not fully eradicate the masses rocket capability now israel's pm says it is a must for israel to stop all rocket fire from gaza and that they don't know how long the campaign will continue given the daily loss felt by palestinian civilians here people fear how this conflict will evolve how. egypt and jordan continue sending aid to gaza while also putting their hospitals to palestinians injured in the attacks we spoke with honey sous from the islamic university of gaza who thinks that civilian fatalities could have been avoided if

israel wanted. the images that we see on t.v. screens prove that basically it is when it is targeting palestinian civilians and i cannot really understand how israel can justify that if the israelis wanted to hit him in a thousand of those who are responsible for the launching of rockets against is why the thousand villages they are able to basically do without without endangering palestinian civilians these cries must be investigated by the international community because they are not that is when is going to thing international humanitarian law. at the same time israel claims more than eight hundred rockets have been fired by hamas into the country since the offensive began a week ago this video released by hamas military wing samberg aides shows domestically produced rockets being launched in the city of tel aviv israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu claims will use any and all means necessary to stop the rockets and amid growing international calls for

a cease fire the country is ramping up preparations for a possible ground invasion or his policy or is in tel aviv to find out how israelis knew if it. was the military strikes of a gaza seeing it as a legitimate response to defend the country's borders but at the same time people here are afraid the anti missile defense system around ninety percent of rockets it's that ten percent that remains that has seen some never misses who could accept to receive messages like this without doing the thing it's not possible i think very sad really very sad that i think that the israelis don't need this kind of lives and really care about the everything. and i just i don't know how to feel about israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has so he scored political points with this military offensive even the opposition inside his unity government supports the military strikes although they are calling for

a diplomatic solution there is of course a very. voice inside his weighty societies he now wants to see all gazans killed they will be the ones at the forefront of calling for a ground offensive i hope so that now they're going to find the final step about entering those three i thing that they should do something really radical because they deemed that it they need they giving them like too much time like they have the whole time to send more. but most israelis make the distinction between hamas that rules gaza and the ordinary civilians who live there. i think there also needs to be an opening or some kind of hope for the palestinian residents when all of this is over because if at the end we're back to square one it means we didn't do much meanwhile israel's aerial strikes continue and people here live in fear of the next rocket fire you see on t.v. television. our web team also closely following the latest israeli palestinian

conflict r.t. dot com all the latest pictures videos and eye witness was still to come on r.t. international russian president vladimir putin picking up a world cup petang from brazil the country hosting leaders of the top developing states for the brics summit bad story and more after a short break. this is about making the business survive.

corporations love. parishioners don't hate their parishioners have no feelings. corporations don't care about you or me corporations only care about often. people come to untouched forests and leave massively in the sea come on. we're not going to quit we will not stop until it is done what is more precious music more moving. quarter past the hour now a u.k. court set to hear a claim by human rights activists that british intelligence is running an illegal mass surveillance program this is britain's prime minister pledging pledging an extra eight hundred million pounds for monitoring operations parliament also debating a new law that would enable security services to keep the personal data of internet

and mobile users for up to twelve months probably boyko reports. the u.k. prime minister says britain me these emergency laws that force telecommunications companies to hold wreck or words of customers data because back in april the european court of justice scrapped an existing law that already forced companies to do just that on the grounds that it infringed human rights so the british government wants to rush through its own law david cameron says that telecoms firms are just weeks away from deleting customer information ministers say that would have serious consequences for police and counter terror operations sometimes in the dangerous world in which we live we need our security services to listen to someone read the emails to identify and disrupt a terrorist plot as prime minister examples we're doing this stopped a terrorist attack according to the law mobile phone providers will have to store

data on who contacted who under way for twelve months so that means your messages websites you visited and even the places you being with their recorded on geo location apps like facebook well or we were to take anyone who's followed to the snowden revelations even briefly we know that we already have huge cars of massive violence here in the united kingdom and we have a program called mastering the internet inside but in fact this is not protecting us people have still become rattled radicalised we know that these powers are disproportionately. targeting turns all of us from citizens into suspects the law is being rushed through parliament and could be before the trees out but perhaps one small consolation for its opponents the regulations will automatically

expire in twenty sixteen which means politicians will have to re-examine the measures. all over again in two years time. as a whistleblower edward snowden also has deep reservations about the plans and an exclusive interview with a british newspaper snowden says the u.k. government is trying to convince people that mass surveillance is for their own good and you question the lack of public debate on the matter political commentator ted are all says a lot in a washington area determined to continue surveilling citizens clearly what's going on both in the u.k. and in the us is a move by the establishment referee which represents the community in trying to mitigate the damage from the leaks they want to continue business as usual they would like to continue to read our emails and listen to our phone calls and watch our videos and they would like to continue doing this as if edward snowden had never lived lets face it neither camera nor obama have expressed any real

interest in changing the way that they're doing things they're sad that they got caught they wish that they didn't they have been now they're trying to soft pedal the what's going on and pretend to make some modest reforms through a little bit of window dressing and that's supposed to satisfy us. brazil hosting another high profile event but this time of a non-sporting nature of the brics summit gathering together leaders from the world's top six developing countries and russia in the hopes of boosting economic ties within the bloc in particular brazil let's take a look at some of the reasons why five point five billion dollars was the amount of trade between the two countries last year so they're already big economic partners but that could get bigger as because of brazil is the fifth largest world population and a fast expanding domestic market why it's i.t. sector has become the best in latin america it's got more on this from analysis from a stock market analyst dr david kuo joining us live thank you very much for joining

us here on r t international experts saying that this particular bric summit is of special importance tell us why is that well it's mainly because the be economies of many of these countries are beginning to slow i mean it was that one time when the brics countries will. be you know high growth high excitement economies but just recently we've been seeing a slowdown in growth in brazil in india not so much in china but certainly in russia we begin to see this slowdown so consequently the need to get together again and can we do collectively in order to drive the economic growth to get a consummate league as you pointed out populations of these countries are very low and they need to be able to fuel going to not only growth in order to sustain the population. now another topic of particular importance that is set to be discussed here is this development bank between the brics countries that they're trying to establish as kind of an alternative to the world bank and the i.m.f. do you think what are your expectations for that. well i think they are trying to

tie and i think it's almost inevitable that something is going to happen because ultimately when you have a look at the i.m.f. and even the world bank i mean these two organizations tend to be controlled by the leaders in the west and many of these developing countries particularly these brits country are saying that the thing to be left out of that don't believe they need to be able to have a bank at the road and say how can we have the bank will look after the needs of our people and in other words you know look at things like the structural requirements of these countries and also to try and equalize to some extent you know the kind of bubbles that are beginning to form in some of the countries now in terms of russia and china they recently signed this historic gas deal there is going to be a meeting between vladimir putin and she jinping on the sidelines of the brics summit what do you think they're going to be talking about i think they're going to be talking about driving economic growth because ultimately when you have a look at how we can how many companies it is primarily through things like

consumer spending private sector investment and also a negative force so i think these two countries will be looking very closely at how they can drive the economic growth china needs to grow russia certainly needs to grow and one of the keys really is to try and sort of drive that consumer spending which is goaltimate the you know the the secret behind driving that sort of economic growth sustainably so i think both countries will be looking at how to get the consumers to spend money to have a sustainable economic growth over the long term. and finally russia's president is set to discuss on the sidelines of the brics meeting with other non brics country leaders i remember earlier there was talk that opera haps egypt the world's most populous arab country would possibly be joining the brics bloc what other come countries do you think will be meeting with and do you see the possibility of other developing nations joining the group. well i think you know it's a case of the more the merrier and i think you know having more countries joining this this very elite club of the economies is very important yes you mentioned

egypt and i think you know egypt certainly wants to be part of this new run would be actually an interest they wanted they wanted to join also and of course you know many of the south american countries we're looking at countries like. colombia i mean these were actually said to make very interesting additions to the to the british how that money will run how to actually sort of when we have more of these i have no idea i'm going after sit down on the scrabble board in time work out what would actually be an interesting. way to remember what we have all countries what is going to be right what on earth what they call the thing all right dr david stock market analyst live for us from singapore thank you very much for your insight and you. well brazil of course has also just played host to the world cup and sunday's final sparking mayhem in the argentinian capital these are pictures from buenos aires a film by r.t.s. video agency ruptly shattered glass right cars wounded police that's how

argentinian fans reacted to their country's team losing to germany in the world cup . and some pictures of triumph in berlin that could be confused with outrage though fireworks did light up that i sky there. pardon me is germany celebrating becoming a world champion. next state bracing itself for the global football showdown in russia brazil's hands over title the world cup host to the country where the construction spree is going on for throttle toward twenty eight teams tournament argues neil harvey. twenty eight hundred fifty five both ladies and gentlemen to be organized. i can see thousand and ten it was smiles as russia defied deals to be nine toasted the twenty eight world cup. victory came last thanks to a slick promotional video which pledged to develop football among the country's new . with another big selling point was russia's ambitious plan to build several new

stadia which will keep games could be plate of food we use on how exactly is not looking good the two stadiums to be used for under construction there in killeen the drought the grass nizhny novgorod in somalia the move should be rolling soon enough with those projects to be underway by the end of the see it and meanwhile the progress at some of the other venues has given russia really cool to celebrate . while here in sochi there should be no problem whatsoever the fish stadium is tried and tested during the olympics it proved itself to be a great success that will be one at a slight alterations needed in order to turn it into a. football stadium but they're only minor in safety this one up as a success for the host nation. this is because on the arena and boy is this a versatile stadium because last year they hosted the world student games that next

year they'll put into swimming pools for the staging of the championships and after that it will be converted into a full state. in the russian capital there are two very different projects taking place with the new stadium going up just as an old one gets down first as the spawn tank stadium a high tech high cost ground that in order to protect the speech from the harsh russian winter is he's using the very latest technologies and they include food bills equivalent of a giant head drawing. through the profile. with all the soil heating all. of the sufis keeping the champ as it should be and also laying. off the pitch which will be all be. so here is the spark that stadium in all its glory the playing surface is looking absolutely spectacular while the infrastructure is just days away now from

completion it took four years of work and four hundred thirty million dollars of investment together to this point and it sees the stadium spot tacked on the brink of becoming the new kid on moscow's footballing blockbuster fifty one of those clowns who prefer if you'll stadium to be a little bit bigger about how ups have a little bit more history than there really is only one place to go. and that's here to the luzhniki which in twenty eight team will host both the opening game of the tournament and the big one the world cup final however in order to look the part for her big occasion the grand old lady of russian football.

shocking but not too crazy and shocking hey i don't have a horse in this race i actually think the opie and anthony show is pretty dismal but when i see someone getting fired for wacky shock jock stuff that is in a way kind of part of his job well just seems very hypocritical to me but that's just my opinion. i'll talk about language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports for. the new i will leave them to the state department to comment on your latter point. secure yet a car is on the docket no. thank you no more weasel. when you say a direct question see proof for a change when you're done you should be ready for a. pretty speech.
