the foreign office during a ruthless reshuffle look at his time on the world stage and what his defense secretary replacement might now have in store. but it's with the breaking news that we start just after ten pm now here in moscow with me kevin no it and that news is that a moscow metro train derailed during the morning rush hour at least twenty one people died there those on board took pictures like this in the aftermath the train was at its full speed of seventy kilometers an hour when the emergency brakes activated then the first three trains and carriages collided sending that train off the track more than one hundred sixty people are injured over one hundred still in hospital tonight. i think i would hear. you.

but i do. feel. that if you were. you could see so graphically there what a mess that train was in at the end of the tunnel with the tragedy just a few kilometers from the city center the damage line is one of the main road ways into moscow's financial sentence of the key government buildings too but in a culture of reports mixed. on one of the world's most heavily used transit systems the morning rush hour a routine for many of the eight million people who use this network our free day than just before nine am on a train traveling at its full speed of seventy kilometers per hour the in the agency breaks activates you know what i was inside the first carriage the sudden

look me over the lights went out everyone huddled together the first three carriages salaam together forcing the train off the track no one in science was prepared for impacts. everyone was shocked we were all in panic there was simply nothing left from with first metro car just a huge dent it was horrible i've never been so afraid in my entire life. i witnesses recall being suddenly plunged into darkness and smoke appearing stunned passengers found themselves trapped eighty meters below ground in the matter as deep as section. so. i was thrown into the air there was blood on the floor heads bruised some people had broken ribs and one person's arm was injured so all in all people were hysterical we started to get out we saw a door in the tunnel wall men eventually broke that door and we saw workers

constructing a parallel tunnel they helped us to get out of this scene here right after the accident looked completely chaotic rescue helicopters flying in the air and couple dozen ambulances police but mostly people looking scared and shocks after managing to escape from the underground the victims say emergency teams were there in less than twenty minutes past people made their way to safety through the dark tunnels rescuers who worked to reach those still trapped within the wreckage just in the supermarket. everyone was helping each other i wouldn't say that at that time anybody was panicking but we tried to carry those injured really gently carrying them on our backs at that point everything was good. more than eleven hundred people were evacuated from the crash site one hundred hospitalized doesn't suck critically ill so far the authorities say a sudden failure in the alec tricity supply is what probably cost the breaks to

activates or abruptly it will take at least two days to restore services on this busy commuter line and it will take a longer to get an answer as to how a section of railway just a decade old could be the scene of such a deadly accident i don't question the r.t. moscow. i don't order. way to every day work and they're caught up and this is what people traveled on the train. with one eye witnesses as a powerful impact threw him over to the other side of the carriage another a person describes what he saw inside one of the carriages obviously lots of blood and injured people tweeting coming in say with one train carriage was almost rips into two pieces we saw a mess in those pictures earlier on another says the passengers had to use their bare hands to break free from the wreckage bloggers also describe the panic after the impact and how many passengers had suffered head will you can follow the latest developments surrounding this in the rush hour this morning on our twitter feed and

on our web site r.t. dot com and here throughout the evening with me. israel has resumed its military offensive against garza just several hours after unilaterally agreeing to ceasefire the deescalation plan proposed by egypt last night was initially supported by the israeli government but rejected by hamas militants who continued firing rockets israel sustained its first casualty to when a man died after an airstrike and he fears in gaza for r.t. . israel whole to 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 hamas is 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 on the israeli context israel has in the last several several days received rocket fire not just from gaza but also from lebanon egypt 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 live this hospital we're going to destroy a second missiles hitting within fifteen minutes of third one hundred fifty fourth one came from the rules of what we are staying here to help support and protect and shield the patients but there are helpless among the seventeen patients here only a couple were conscious and. well to talk to us the rest are in comas they constitute some of the most severe medical cases inside gaza when the rockets hit was inside the clinic. on. the lives of those less known as adamant that was almost home ahmed. yes i went out on model. with 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 live up to it knows their leaders on you know toward the palestinians. the same day five o'clock 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 there 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 but if it's civilian objects is a grave breach of the geneva convention. and might amount to war crimes on the national polls because 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's hospitals are still non competence and the health service is almost at breaking point with staff having to work around the clock carry fear r.t.

gas or. in the meantime palestinians living in israeli occupied territories in the west bank are venting their anger going head to head with israeli defense forces. the i.d.f. backed up by armored vehicles disperse crowds of palestinians there used to gas and stun grenades to call hundreds of people who gathered in bethlehem in the west bank to protest against the israeli military occupation and garza there are reports too that several people were injured during that rally. reporter we should crain shortly here on r.t. international as the news continues. as you can see the region still reeling under kiev's artillery bombardment with constant shelling turning was bustling cities into ghost towns that's ahead then also to look at whether afghanistan's security situation is spiraling out of control right

now after another deadly attack on civilians. but next 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 replaced by former defense secretary philip hammond haig was 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 air attacks laying siege to desperate people and presiding over the creation of a humanitarian catastrophe but at that time hague failed to convince parliament to vote for an attack on syria which weekend his public standing in an embarrassing defeat westminster in peace told hague and the prime minister to cool it down hague

should have told david cameron to retreat on the syrian issue before the vote that so the media so it after the debate service such as the guardian newspaper even claimed that hague should have resigned after failing to judge the political and public mood british world affairs journalists neil clark told my colleague matt treasurer about hague's legacy and what the new foreign secretary could mean for the country next. there's no doubt that william hague here is far secretary in pretty disastrous for britain he was a strong supporter of the iraq war two thousand and three when he was in opposition in two thousand and eleven he took it 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 but it happened and so this isn't really about

individuals it's about government policy which is hawkish neo conservatives a status quo to change really wants to 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's a euro 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. your skepticism is an interesting point because i think this government is right worried about the threats and you. 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 two spots on syria or the

middle east generally i think it's me he's much more of a hard core the william hague was and i think that's probably why david cameron diaz decided to promote it. while public attention is destructive them but over cameras hirings and firings the pm nonetheless is still plying away stepping up state surveillance we can report a resurrected law on data recordings to go before parliament despite calls from human rights campaigners that bill comes follow the european court of justice is decision to recognize data gathering by intelligence services as impinging on human rights following that ruling mobile phone companies got read to delete data they've already collected something the government didn't want to now take it well it's take a close look at this new legislation that seems to be quickly going through parliament critics fear the new law will expand the surveillance powers generally the time the place even the number dialed it all be kept by mobile operators plus crucially to the conversation maybe itself could be recorded internet service providers would

monitor and record the pages their clients visited this information could be stored for anything up to a year the prime minister is pledging an extra eight hundred million pounds to for monitoring operations it seems to have the financial backing artie's polly has got an update. well this floor is zipping through parliament with broadband like speed it's got cross party support which means that. i'm saying is more or less of a foregone conclusion which is probably why you can see on the pictures very few m.p.'s in support of the law even turned up to debate it the home secretary says that there is nothing to worry about that the law would simply be maintaining the status quo and if we want to pass the law well then it would make the work of the police and the intelligence services much more difficult and it would be harder for them to catch terrorists and criminals despite her assurances there's been a lot of vocal opposition from a minority that turned up to debate the law in the commons today one backbencher

said that the house shouldn't be microwaving legislation in this way under what he called a convected emergency so a lot of questions about the very rushed time frame and the lack of scrutiny towards a lot that could affect the civil liberties of each and every person in the country one more fundamental issue that's been questioned on a number of occasions today is about the european court of justice and if they ruled back in april that data retention is a breach of human rights and if it's illegal well then why is the british government rushing through this regulation that would be in breach of that ruling. a lot of questions to be answered we're following the story that after the break we had to crane there the latest consequences of the. forces.

they all told me my language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports for. the pollution and no i will leave them to stay current to comment on your latter part of the month to save the exists or k.l. a car is on the docket no god. no job no more weasel words when you fade a direct question simply prepared for a change when the bunny should be ready for a. printout of speech and a little down to freedom to costs. dramas the chance to be ignored. stories others refused to notice. the faces change the walls lights never.

sold picture of today's leaves no longer from around the globe. up to. fifty. and ukraine next this is the. residents say they were bombed by the force early on tuesday morning a block of flats collapsed as a result of at least eleven people were killed including an elderly couple too but it's feared more people buried still under the rubble. the neighboring lugansk region has been shelled by the ukrainian army for several days in the most recent the very residential area was targeted one shell one of the roof of a nine story building while several others had to school killing a guard self-defense activists say eighteen people have been killed in the last three days from. the situation here on the ground is very

dramatic and tensions continue to escalate shelling almost never stops we hear the sounds of the to read day and night and even right and now in the. tanks mortars and multiple rocket launchers known as get out or hail i used there and to government forces to say that the crane 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 more 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 civilians population are also on a constant rise because residential areas are often. heat we visited many scenes shortly after the shells landed there and the images we saw on the ground were really terrible some of that we cannot even show here and with all

this escalation here in eastern ukraine obviously people continue to leave and they do not know when or if they will be able to come back. across point on the ground there in the guns can keep of course all the developments in ukraine which were falling on i don't like about. the other stories you got one of the few as well to come in the next few minutes fun of a potential new arms race we've got more of it online as well analysts warning that japan's plan to reopen a nuclear reprocessing plant wittingly push its neighbors to boost their own atomic arsenals i'm a big story brewing. just to squash not under twenty million pounds to buy britain's most expensive house well we'll tell you if you log on to. a multi-billion dollar financial alliance is being forged in the brazilian city of four to the world's top five emerging nations known as the brics have signed an agreement to create a rival to the i.m.f. the world bank venture capital host kitty pilgrim reports the breaks will intensify

their unity by finalizing the details on two lifeline institutions the fuss is the development bank this will rival the i.m.f. and the world bank and offer support to the emerging economies these pricks member will contribute 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 so see one billion dollars. russia brazil and india will there's a team in south africa where. 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 export earnings. an explosion in afghanistan's eastern paktika province has killed over eighty people after another

deadly attack in the capital kabul to which left two presidential media stuff dead let's get up to speed on more of the deteriorating security there and what the future may hold for afghanistan and talk to political analyst chris bambery of yours live on the line from london there chris normally the taliban tends to concentrate on hitting militants it seems were gone for civilians here it says it was behind this attack. this is quite a worrying attack in a province which has been relatively peaceful up until know where the afghan security forces have going to be an upper hand and it comes at a very bad time where the americans are desperately trying to broker a deal between the two rival presidential candidates. whose claim he's been cheated from a victory by election fraud and ashraf ghani who's queen is the victor and that deal already comes unstuck so this bombing comes a time when already for instance the german government is saying it is extremely worried about the stability of afghanistan going down down the road and this will

just fuel the concerns that really come the american and nato forces withdrawn this year the afghans are not a toll on top of the security situation and indeed the country can put poor izing on ethnic winds which is what's happening with the two camps of the two rival presidential candidates so as far as the presidential election goes what's your prognosis for it doesn't bode for a stable future either way does it. no it doesn't bode for a stable future ashraf ghani represents the past in the section abdullah abdullah represents those forces which were once in a northern alliance which oppose the taliban and really there's very little compromise between them. it's under pressure to take take control in kabul by military means the americans persuaded not to but how long he can be held back i don't know and also the doesn't seem to be any stable ability and already there are agreement john kerry yes actually state forces which then seems to be in the verge of breaking down over the question of whether there's

a recurrence of the president way actions that the checking the ballots will be by international monitors or not. who is a danger at this point that iraq is going to follow the same fate sort of afghanistan's going to follow the same fate as a rock and go down that path i think there is a danger and that's what the german government were warning about and of course that would create an arc of instability straight things to syria iraq and as you say into into afghanistan and now we worry many of its neighbors china iran and so on and russia indeed who will be worried by developments in afghanistan and is really is an indictment all of over and over a decade now of nato an american occupation of afghanistan that there is no stability in this country and we're on the verge of what seems to another collapse into further violence in afghanistan. chris bambery in london the thank you for that. and thank you for being with us is well it's no account twenty six minutes past ten off the break i'll be martin say with breaking the set of conversation

tonight over civilian losses in palestine as the israeli shelling continues. this is about making the business survive. corporations don't love your parishioners told corporations have no feeling. corporations don't care about you or me corporations we cure all for. 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 movies. you know george orwell once said their relative freedom which we enjoy depends on the public opinion the law is no protection governments make laws but whether they are carried out and how the police behave depends on the general in the country they have large number of people are interested in freedom of speech there will be freedom of speech even if the law forbids it. your friend post a photo from a vacation you can't afford college you different. the boss repeats the same old joke of course you like. your ex-girlfriend still paints tear jerking poetry. norrish. we

post only what really matters i don't do your facebook u. street. was up guys i'm abby martin and this is breaking sat so last week two animal rights activists were indicted on federal charges for committing an egregious act of terrorism on u.s. soil that's right tyler lying and have an oligarch used to free in two thousand foxes a mink from a midwest for farm and that's about all their crime entails so one can hardly equate freeing animals from being murdered with terrorism the government agencies working to protect corporate interests see things a little differently on the animal enterprise terrorism act lang and all of the animal activism is an act of terrorism so last month i spoke to journalist well potter about how such an act even came into being. immediately after september

eleventh these industries started pushing for terrorism powers to be used against protesters and what they had won a prize terrorism act that so vague and so broad that according to its supporters including democrats it could be used against nonviolent civil disobedience and to me that's really how this is all expanded it's gone from we need this to go after arsonist in vandals to now we need it to go after nonviolent civil disobedience. yes unfortunately in a post nine eleven world antiterrorism measures have even been expanded for giant factory farms so as the old saying goes first they came for the muslims i didn't speak out because i was not a muslim then they came for the animal rights activists and i didn't speak out because i was not an animal rights activists and they came for me and there's no one left to speak for me let's break this up. at the lead.
