during a ruthless reshuffle look at his time on the world stage and what his defense secretary replacement might have in store. over again even she would say pm here in moscow kevin owen you with r.t. international one story dominating the breaking news that a moscow metro train derailed in the morning rush hour at least twenty one people are dead because of it those on board took pictures of the immediate aftermath that train was at its full speed of seventy kilometers or when the emergency brakes activated the first three carriages then collided setting the train off the track more than one hundred sixty people were injured over one hundred are in hospital tonight around a dozen bodies are still thought to be trapped in the wreckage. here i.

think i. could know how to get a worse time of day for there was a good time for the house but this tragedy just a few kilometers from the city center the damage line is one of the main railways into most cars financial center and some key government buildings but correspond to roman culture of. the station near victory park which is in the west of the capital of the roman what details are emerging tonight about what went so badly wrong in the morning rush hour here. you're absolutely right say that so we are a very close to the center of action just a few kilometers. out there is the government's building the parliament building

and the kremlin is just a couple of kilometers the eve. of the tragedy of this morning well a day off warning it will be observed that it was cold and say this the sea. life such as happened during the rush hour and so this is one of the busiest metro lines the are a lot of politics about eight hundred passengers per se this happening in the rush hour certainly i think it's quite a few people twelve hundred in fact were evacuated also right next to me is that report a place. both russian and for reasons serious help when the tragedy occurred to a lot of people have been rushed that's in the hospital until as i hear from obama those survivors that's been taken so you want to fourteen hospitals around the school. that ask that much in your professional retrain abruptly stopped my knee and i'm like telling someone then i realized i was suffocating but only up i never

felt more scared in my life it was a horrible one i don't know there was hardly anything left of the front carriage and just a big dent somebody didn't open the door and we got out of rome and before we come back you just want to apologize for our views is for some reason really bad sound quality that we're getting from you but we want to stay with you anyway to get the . funds to bear with us as well what do we know about the injured on their condition tonight. like i said earlier about sets one hundred people were evacuated those twelve hundred that action at least one hundred sixty were injured to a little bit less were taken to the hospital with over one hundred forty in fact at least a third value but it was forty three people they are in critical condition and they've been taken to various hospitals around the school at fourteen hospitals have been utilized in fact and of course the makeshift hospitals in from hospitals were set up here in the area as well so some people were carried cared for right at the

scene of the accident. twenty one people had died already and. here that number might say still increasing as people are being cared for in that area say you all roads that when the tragic accident occurred this morning before the rescue service has ever arrived at the scene people were actually trying to help each other out to get out from up the actual cars that just some solid open our doors here and. smashed into each other and so i don't try to help each other out said say come out from the underground and we can hear from a couple of those people right now. in to us said try and listen to some of those eyewitnesses showing. you what would you i was inside the first carriage look me over the lights went on everyone hoping to blow just enough but it was

clear the train derailed and the carriage in front of us was turned ninety degrees against the tracks a small fire broke out and we had to use two fire extinguishers to put it out a person who was standing next to me when the tragedy happened hit his head there was a lot of blood and he blacked out. now one of the people we just heard from on craig's actually heard acquaintance well i like you works in this area i live in this area as well and when i heard of this accident tried to call him couldn't get a hold of him for the longest time and you find that he called back saying that he's again ok he helped evacuate some people as he came out from the underground but he was barefoot his clothing was absolute bare ripped apart and he sustained a couple of injuries as well now another eyewitness told me that when people were coming out from down the ground they had their faces were. pale full of fear shock

and that i can also felt outside. forces are so we still think about twelve bodies may be also down the being recovered i guess even at this time investigators are trying to find out what went wrong has any more information come to light throughout the day about what could have caused this. well of the moments we believe that there are bodies said not so well but the latest in the last it's going to focus on the rescue people here they said that two people remain on the ground we can still see. from time to time a risky service is going underground that's the entrance from the right there that's where their headquarters are as well. an investigation the biggest question as soon as the incident occurred was whether this is a terrorist act because it metro's moscow's metro system had been at sargon for several victims as well but to be authorities have brushed away that version right

away and said this was not a terrorist act then another version surface saying that there was a fire. fire alarm to trigger a power outage in the metro on the railway and so it caused the train soon to go off track now authorities of brushing away that urgent now as well and so they have the three main versions right now one of the persons is the due tracks wish that was installed about five days ago there was a huge metro line being built very close to here and a grand you switch was installed and the something could be a wrong but with that now the second version is a faulty railway and it was in and even stationed there that we can see that right now as well and the third and final version of this story is a working on right now is a faulty train car so this is more of the three right now in this occasion it is

ongoing as we speak and it will be continuing for the next couple of days as well until they're hundred percent sure of what exactly to place meanwhile the mayor most specific he's about in. financial assistance to the people that perished and to the people that were injured as well as their families and those sums of buried anywhere from forty to ninety thousand dollars roman for now thank you and again sort of pull some clues if roman but i'm sure i could. i want to hear the latest as well well this is what people who are on the train have posted on twitter you can see the master the tangle of carriages want one why one eye witness has a powerful impact through the other end of the carriage another describes what he saw inside that one of the carriages lots of blood and injured people this tweet says that one train carriage was almost ripped into two pieces you can see the

scale of the devastation there in those pictures just got through another says passengers had to use their bare hands to break free from the wreckage blogger's also described the panic after the impact there how many passengers had suffered head wounds you can keep up to date with the latest developments of course run in with so awful accident on our twitter feed on our website r.t. dot com and we will continue to update you through the evening here as well. israel has resumed its military offensive against garza just several hours after unilaterally agreeing to a cease fire the deescalation plan proposed by egypt was initially supported by the israeli government but then rejected by hamas militants who continued firing rockets hairy fears in gaza for r.t. . israel halted its operation on gaza at nine am local time to see if hamas would take the opportunity and that didn't happen of a fifty rockets were fired today from gaza into israel at the same time how massa's

military wing has said that the conditions for it to stop its campaign on israel have not been met they include for example the full lifting of the siege on gaza so israel has now resumed its operation and that includes the possibility of a ground invasion we've heard reports of bombings from the north to the south of the gaza strip just a while ago near our accommodation in west gaza city we heard. near by now in the israeli context israel has in the last several several days received rocket fire not just from gaza but also from lebanon on egypt's sinai and also syria and in israel south the population that a civilian population have indeed by to been terrorized of course the civilian population in gaza at least one hundred civilians have been killed here we have been meeting with civilians stuck inside one of gaza's main hospitals. after a week of fighting over two thousand two hundred sites have been targeted in gaza

with missiles striking hundreds of homes as well as police stations civil administration buildings mosques and hospitals gaza's only rehabilitation hospital was among three took direct hits its director general explained how it became a target in the morning we were hit with the first missiles from those were the warning signs for us leave this hospital we're going to destroy a second missiles hitting within fifteen minutes of third one fifty fourth one came from the rules but we are staying here to help support and protect the patients but they are helpless among the seventeen patients here only a couple were conscious and. well to talk to us the rest comas they constitute some of the most severe medical cases inside gaza when the rockets hit was inside the clinic can you call on us quickly and. then we'll go but the lives of those less

known as i don't know is almost home ahmed. mess so we're not all modern. we're just one kilometer away from the border with israel and this is where the first news struck. one of the theory is that israel wants to clear it off so it knows there is a clear zone you know the war by the palestinians. the same day at five o'clock on the missile that hit the hospital they called me we were. larger than the first for the time. to go as a press release the hospital made an emergency appeal for support and got an unexpected response pro palestinian international activists sitting in as human shields inside the hospital is really doesn't care too much about palestinian lives to has to be somebody from the outside world somebody from the western world they believe their presence protects the hospital claiming that israel will take

measures to make certain that foreigners are not among casualties my presence here is more valuable for for the international community in the sense that this world cannot hurt me striking the hospital represents a significant low point in this most recent israel hamas escalation the third of its kind in the last several years. it's all civilian objects is a grave breach of the geneva convention. and might amount to war crimes under the national polls but those have even. a greater level of protection. for example with houses while we were filming at the hospital an airstrike took place just a couple of hundred meters from where we were standing we ran for cover it's a measure of how dangerous this place is that even vulnerable patients find themselves at risk. most of the casualties arriving in gaza hospitals are still no

incompetence on the health service is almost at breaking point with staff having to work around the clock harry fear. gaza. meantime palestinians living in israeli occupied territories in the west bank are venting their anger going head to head with israeli defense forces. vehicles dispersed crowds of palestinians they used to augusta stun grenades to quell hundreds of people who gathered in bethlehem in the west bank to protest against the israeli military operation in gaza there are reports too that several people were injured cheering the rally. so it was you can as we tell you about the mass hirings and firing is in britain's government that's coming up shortly with the province's even cold some of his closest friends and allies more on that after the break.

talking about language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports. no i will leave the state department comment on your latter point. secure a call it's all good talking no. thank you no more weasel words. when you need a direct question be prepared for a change when you when you should be ready for a. freedom of speech and a little bit on the freedom to watch. dramas that can't be ignored. stories others use in their. faces changing the world. so picture.

from around the. globe. britain's foreign secretary is quitting the job as part of the prime minister's cabinet purge that seeing a swathe of changes at the top william hague's somewhat surprised resignation after four years in the post will see him replaced by former defense secretary philip hammond eggers one of the most vocal proponents of western military operations especially when it came to intervention in syria the syrian regime's escalating use of indiscriminate and disproportionate force against the people of syria. using tanks torture artillery scud missiles or air attacks laying siege to desperate people and presiding over the creation of a humanitarian catastrophe but hague failed to convince parliament to vote for an

attack on syria which we can do is public standing in embarrassing defeat and westminster and peace told hague and the prime minister to cool it down a get you should have told david cameron to retreat on the syrian issue before the vote that said the papers so after the debate such as the guardian even claimed that hague should have resigned after failing to judge the political and public mood british. told us about hague's legacy and what the new foreign secretary could mean for the country next. there's no doubt that when a period is for a secretary and pretty disastrous for britain he was a strong supporter of the iraq war two thousand and three when he was in opposition and in two thousand and eleven he took her into war against libya now on top of that he's done all he can in the last three years to try and get military intervention against syria and so i think that william hague's times foreign secretary has been disastrous to britain i think he should have resigned last summer when he failed to get parliament to support war against syria that's the time he should have gone but the sad thing is of course is that yes he's going but

he's being replaced by a man who's probably just as hawkish philip hammond and so this isn't really about individuals it's about government policy which is hawkish it's neo conservatives it's that it's got to change really all it's take a look at the new man in the job philip hammond he was defense secretary and came into politics from the business world he's known for hard line conservative views as you've stated he zero skeptic and he has said that he would vote to leave the e.u. if there was a referendum hammond is also an outspoken opponent of same sex marriage and a supporter of big spending on the military so why in your opinion do you think he was chosen to replace a well accepted for those reasons that your skepticism is an interesting point because i think the government is very worried about the threats. very very well in the european elections as they did after hard line ready i thought it would be a good man to do this i think that's one of the main reasons he's been promoted to take all your skeptic life because of course the general election he's great he's

only just a year away now so i said so i think it's not so much to spots all syria or all the middle east generally i think it's me he's much more of a hardcore the william hague was and i think that's probably why david cameron has decided to promote it. while public attention has distracted them but david cameron is hiring them firings the pm still playing a way of stepping up state surveillance are resurrected law and data recordings about to go before parliament despite calls from human rights campaigners about it the bill comes following the european court of justice is decision to recognise data gathered by intelligence services as impinging on human rights following that ruling mobile phone companies got ready to delete the data they collected something the u.k. government didn't want to happen to a close look at this new legislation what it proposes critics fear the new law would expand surveillance powers generally the time the place the number of dogs or all the kept by mobile operators plus maybe the conversation itself too could be

recorded internet service providers would monitor and record the pages the clients visited and this information could be stored as well for up to twelve months one year that's as britain's prime minister pledges an extra eight hundred million pounds for monitoring operations opposition labor m.p. jeremy corbyn says the law will be passed despite resistance among many members of parliament here. he would is that it will probably go through the british parliament at the moment it has a sunset clause to end in two thousand and sixteen the first amendment we have today is to bring that forward too much nearer the introduction date but many of us will actually vote against the bill as a whole because we do not believe it's necessary we believe it's an intrusion into people's lives and also britain is taking for itself a global role in this that it can prosecute any company anywhere in the world if it fails to provide the data that the government requires from it this gives blanket powers to the state to interfere in everybody's mobile phone call or any other data

retention for a period of twelve months and that is a massive invasion on a par with the invasion of privacy that has happened in the united states which mr snowden did so much to try and expose to the rest of the world. and update now on the latest from ukraine and in the east again you're seeing the town. near donetsk residents say they were bombed by the ukrainian air force early on tuesday morning the block of flats collapsed as a result of an attack at least eleven people were killed including an elderly couple but it's feared more people are buried under the rubble to the neighboring lugansk regions been shelled by the ukrainian army for several days now and in the most recent attack there residential area was targeted one shell landed on the roof of a nine story building while several others had to school killing a guard there self-defense activists say eighteen people who've been killed in the last three days with an option is in the forests. the situation here on the ground

days very dramatic and tensions continue to escalate challis almost never stops we hear sounds over to read day and night and even right and now in the. tanks mortars and multiple rocket launchers known as good art or hail i use there and to government forces to say that the ground in troops are getting closer to the city center and they are now not further than ten to twenty kilometers from where we are now doctors are working twenty four seven and the city mormons are full death toll is continuing to rise from both sides although it is very hard to say so far how many people were killed because the clashes are on to go in and casualties among the civilian population are also on a constant rise because residential areas are rofft and. heat we visited many scenes shortly after the shells landed there and the images we saw on the

ground were really terrible some of them we cannot even show here and with all this escalation here in ukraine obviously people continue to leave and they do not know when or if they will be able to come back. the whole two billion dollar financial alliance is being forged of me shoulder here you're seeing live pictures from the brazilian city afford to most of us what's happening there at the moment as the world's top five emerging nations known as the brics gathering let me put it together the finishing touches to a plan to create a rival to the i.m.f. and the world bank artie's prince of capital host kitty pope with reporters. the brits will intensify their unity by finalizing the details on two lifeline institutions the first is the development bank this will rival the i.m.f. and the world bank and offer support to the emerging economies is brics member going to be ten billion dollars to begin with and eventually the bric bank will be

the one hundred billion the second is the stabilization fund which will support the five economic powers in case of global turbulence sino contribution to see one billion dollars the funds russia brazil and india will there's eighteen and south africa where the five the developing world now accounts for seventy five percent of the globe's currency and in total the brics countries hold around four point five trillion dollars in exports earnings the financial crisis struck the world of course in two thousand and eight years after shocks are still being felt in europe today their countries the thought of find a savior in the form of armor flows or no criticizing the lender for holding them captive according to the bailout terms of course or borrowing countries got to slash jobs pensions and wages and change laws as well or the lenders will spring for example forced around a million people out of work more than half of the country's young people are

unemployed still portugal still dealing with the banking crisis and shrinking g.d.p. greece after six years of recession has got the worst unemployment rate in the e.u. still china expert underlying says all this makes the brics an alternative attractive attention seeking thing. the world shifting into a from a uni polar kind of world order to a more multipolar world order more inclusive perhaps of the various. ethnic religious card regional kind of interests rather than be dictated by a one size fits all kind of formula. so i think that there is a role for the bric countries to play. probably you know let me bring you breaking news this hour the big story of the day at least twenty one people have been killed when three metro carriages derailed in the russian capital in the morning rush hour the bodies of two victims remain in the tunnel between stations in western moscow

more than one hundred sixty people have been injured in that tragedy a russian power cuts understood to cause the trains of emergency braking system to activate that led to the carriages de railing some eyewitness say this is say they waited for an hour inside the wreckage before breaking into the tunnel the mayor of moscow has declared tomorrow a day of mourning stay with the international made stop dates on the moscow metro derailment here after the break most cases along with the latest report. join me. in park and financial commentary contribute and much much. only on time past and.

governments make laws but whether they are carried out and how the police behave depends on the general in the country if large number of people are interested in freedom of speech there will be freedom of speech even if the law forbids it. he could've also added if the public didn't each and every one of them long to be one day a bank fraud and grannies with impunity the department of justice would go after banking crime if public opinion was informed by corporate w w style political economic propaganda consume twenty four seven via cable t.v. it wouldn't be so risky to bet on the middle class place max yes it's become very risky to bet on the middle class in america according to some of our headlines now george orwell was talking about freedom of speech and this is back in one thousand nine hundred five and talking about the fact that many of the people in the political space.
