4:02 am
for at least three days before recovery efforts by the self-proclaimed donetsk people's republic began and they said that they did it purely out of for moral responsibility to the families of the victims of the crash because we find ourselves in a thirty degree heat so the bodies had already began to decompose plus there's also danger present from the wild animals in the surrounding area as well because the plane did crash in a rural area so far at least two hundred bodies had been recovered so they were taken to the nearby city so red stayed been placed in the three railway refrigerator cars the temperature there is said to be about zero to minus five. now they always see a mission of war and wanted to and this is the situation here they said that. still out there in the open they had not been recovered and the most recent finding is
4:03 am
the part of the cockpits including thirty seven additional bodies that they probably think belong to the cockpit crew meanwhile the investigation still cannot begin as international experts latest information suggests that they are from malaysia from the netherlands and from the united states of america which is some seven hundred kilometers away but they still cannot get here apparently saying that . they have a restricted access to the area but always see observers who are currently on side are saying that this is simply not true they also added that the international experts who are currently in kiev have been all being in contact with authorities of the self-proclaimed the polls republican saying that they have full access to the. area of the crash sites we covered a wider area we visited
4:04 am
a site that we hadn't visited before. we had fairly good perimeter security. and you know there they did seem to provide us with a kind of ring of security to allow us to to do the monitoring that we have to do and so there are also questions asked where there are black boxes sold the flight m.h. seventeen have been found so the leader of the self-proclaimed people's republic of donetsk said that technical elements resembling black boxes had been discovered added the sites and said these technical elements had now been taken to the city of donetsk and they are now on their guard and he said see and hear all that somebody tampering with this evidence so they will be kept under guard until international experts do get here and to go elements will only be be given to those international experts that is once they arrive from kiev. and the russian president has called for the safety of everyone involved in the investigation to be assured to use them or in
4:05 am
a quarter of an hour joining us live with details on exactly what else of the russian president had to say marina. rory well the russian president wants to ensure that there is a fourth or an objective investigation and to make sure that happens it's important to ensure of course the safety of all the observers x.-press and international investigators who are there about to start investigating the scene of the crash. it's important that all the people who are accountable for the situation in this region of ukraine are more responsible both for their own citizens and people of those countries who suffered as a result of the tragedy we need to do everything we can to provide security for international experts at the site of the accident lattimer putin added that the task force there right now is not enough and more experts should be brought in who would be working under the guidance of the international civil aviation organization and he also stressed that it's essential that this tragedy isn't being taken advantage of. no one has any right to
4:06 am
use this tragedy for any kind of selfish politicized interest such events should unite people not separate and. so all in all what russia is looking for is for the investigation to be done in accordance with international standards in an objective manner and with no politics involved right artie's monoculture over there in central moscow thank you for that. now let's bring up some of the damning headlines that have appeared in schools of publications all across europe following the mh seventeen tragedy in fact they've been feeling a feeling of anger all across europe germany france and britain have threatened moscow with sanctions as soon as choose day if international investigators are not given full access to the crash site peter oliver now reporting for the country that suffered the biggest loss. european reactions to the downing of the malaysian airlines flight over eastern ukraine have started to change from initial shock
4:07 am
people are now calling for immediate and real action to be taken here in the netherlands where almost two hundred people among those who died came from the foreign minister of france timmons is said that people are angry and furious at what they see is a lack of progress being made regarding an investigation he will be announcing later on in a press briefing what he gained from a recent trip to ukraine will be bringing you that of course as soon as we get it right here from the hague in the united kingdom the foreign secretary philip hammond has said that his country are willing to push ahead with more sanctions against russia even if it was to harm the british economy by restricting the flow of russian cash into the city of london the british prime minister david cameron said he's in agreement with french president francois hollande and german chancellor angela merkel that further sanctions must be discussed the german chancellor though held a phone conversation over the weekend with president vladimir putin and which both parties said that an international investigation is a must and it must get underway very soon from the hake peter all of r.t.
4:08 am
and even before international experts reached the crash site washington accused antigovernment forces in eastern ukraine of shooting down the plane of the un bera five claims or summed up in a post on the website of the us embassy in moscow and russia has been accused of supplying heavy weapons to eastern ukraine an allegation moscow strongly denies and is demanding proof of the u.s. claims it detected a missile launched from opposition held territory shortly before the plane went down but the ukrainian military was also in that area within striking distance or shinton sites communications allegedly intercepted between the ukrainian opposition again no independent confirmation they're authentic and let's have you be the judge have a listen to the recording right here which the opposition allegedly admitted to bringing down the alley. maybe somewhere you a little boy i mean you are where you like you well. now you are. actually working
4:09 am
. chipchura if you. wreck it so much and we can have. so in this recording one ukrainian opposition member allegedly confessed to shooting down the plane and the tape is being examined by a leading company which helps moscow police decide how authentic recordings are here's what one of the experts had to say but it's not really it's a text on. it's being presented as one on it it's had recorded in reality the sort of file was compiled out of several fragments in the time mark is inconsistent the part where it is being said the plane was downed by cossacks these markers reveal that one fragment was recorded at sixteen thirty three and that the second fragment which comes right afterwards was recorded at seventeen fifteen. and finally this is footage from ukrainian authorities allegedly showing a book surface to air missile launcher with one of its rockets missing kiev and
4:10 am
washington claimed the video was shot in an opposition held area of eastern ukraine however some ukrainian locals have certainly more come to their own conclusions about the location of exactly where those pictures were taken for example one twitter user pointed to the billboard right here in this video it's apparently located in the town of krasnoyarsk that area has actually been under the control of the ukrainian military since may the towns about one hundred kilometers from where the malaysian airliner crash came down a veteran o'er c.e.o. advise a load of our newest he told us there is currently zero conclusive evidence about what exactly happened. this student an opportunity to once again play the blame game on russia and on the insurgency in the east of ukraine i meant and it's too good an opportunity to miss the relatives and the victims deserve a thorough investigation by an independent sources were burned when you see evidence this is something that is produced by experts on the ground it takes weeks
4:11 am
and months before you continue on to any conclusion whatever is being said not is just speculation to a political witch. now a lot of anger has been caused by the way locals office see if they've been treating at the belongings of the victims in fact as images like this one right here caused all for a lot of worldwide criticism before i show you the real picture is what the dutch prime minister said in reaction to this because hawks i am shocked by the images of totally disrespectful behavior at this tragic site this is downright disgusting or i saw the photo has been retreated many many times in fact this is being used a publications web sites and news networks all around the world fuming outraged that anti-government fighters were holding a child's toy monkey like a trophy a lot of people saying that the rebel fighters were stealing the victim's belongings although i should tell you sometimes the image doesn't tell the whole
4:12 am
story have a look. well there still no end to the violence in areas close to the mh seventeen crash site in eastern ukraine that's where kiev's troops have been waging their offensive against anti-government forces with civilians constantly caught in the crossfire according to the o r c e two hundred fifty members of the public have been killed in the lugansk region alone since the beginning of june and the fighting continues for every inch of the land that's our correspondent found at a russian hospital near the ukraine border not everybody is taking sides. yesterday they were firing guns at each other in ukraine today they wake up in the same hospital in russia. they were the last people expected to see that which is that you are grainy and soldiers are just about it was a bit of a model what is the but people still trying to get them as kindly as possible
4:13 am
a little of what of ukrainian soldiers who brought to this small hospital last week after being wounded near the border with russia their commanding officers decided it was easier to move them across the border to a peaceful area not involved in the fighting than seek medical help to graner especially when it was critically injured the issue of their transfer back to ukraine after treatment is being worked out but some already say they are willing to go back to battle or carbonation go back of course on active military duty if your country needs you you have to go. literally next door to them is a member of the gonski self-defense troops he's also being treated for battle wounds here's what he thinks about the can you know army. they pick guys from regions that haven't risen up like donetsk or lugansk they tell them they're going on mandatory army duty but they end up in a war i feel sound for every one of. the doctors here are not only doing their usual jobs but also plain diplomats yeah. mediately said guys are you know maybe
4:14 am
you think of us as enemies but we don't think of a human the same way we live in one country not too long ago that was what i'm surprised that not a single one of those from western ukraine everyone is from your regional. and some cases diplomatic efforts aren't needed when soldiers themselves don't want to fight and then you have to talk over there who wouldn't want to really don't know who we're fighting and i have no animosity towards russians on live national it's not right six of them should be right to they have to make us fight i was mobilized i received wounds to my hands and now i have to go and fight again with cardboard equipment they reuse old ammunition to make money off us the country is falling apart but for them everything's fine here it's all so confusing who's fighting who and how are you and what for is unclear who are these separatists what do they look like we don't know the situation may seem
4:15 am
a paradox after ukraine and western officials spared no effort in trying to paint russia as a hostile aggressor but doctors in this small rural hospital believe there's is simply an exercise in humanity it in. southern russia. are now this news just in from done yet resistance forces saying the city is under attack from heavy weapons locals say at least four times tried to break through self-defense checkpoints and into the regional capital the self-proclaimed authorities have advised the public to stay indoors here on r.t. international we will keep you up to date on this as the minutes and the hours go by. all right for now here on out international after a very short break the very latest updates from war stricken gaza. on marinating in the financial world. to goldman's cannot stop and see
4:16 am
very plainly take no demand for credit not going to get any economic benefit in life. we chase profits very large very attractive and now very globally recognized source of oil for the world into the future the world's cheapest and best petroleum deposits have been mined out we have to use more energy to get this energy industries grow like a cancer each of these squares it's ten kilometers where. and this whole area is slated for the remainder of her drinking water that's our wildlife service search fishery we can't stop this is the end game when it takes two tons of sand to make one barrel of oil you know here at the bottom of the mine and that's where . we kill ourselves.
4:17 am
it's good to have you with us on this monday it's on the international the israeli offensive in gaza has now left more than five hundred palestinians dead sunday the bloodiest day of the conflict so far the shelling of the district killed over one hundred people residents and families escaped through streets strewn with bodies son rubble. well. it was good that it was. her. despite rising casualties israel is continuing to pound gaza. have killed thirty
4:18 am
five more people just this morning in southern gaza many belonging to just one family eighteen is ready soldiers have died in the fighting so if two were american citizens the prime minister binyamin netanyahu was going to continue operations quote as much as needed despite the casualties a humanitarian truce lasted less than an hour on the sunday both sides of course blaming each other for violating. a correspondent said a video from the heart of the conflict it does contain some images you may find distressing. ok so what we're doing now from we're going to move. forward we're going. to put it apparently showing the ruins of destroyed residential buildings is thought to be the target of government gunfire he appears to be hit by a bullet while lying stretched on the ground correspondent. for witness of this is
4:19 am
a group of international solidarity activists and two palestinians who are making a trip into the east. very close to the border with israel this was at a time when there was a hoax on israel's operations in the area there were two palestinians one was an activist which shot the video the images that you just saw and there was another young man we believe approximately eighteen or nineteen years old the one depicted in the imagery which shows him of course being fatally wounded and dying in front of these international solidarity activists this young gentleman wished to take these activists to this area in order to help evacuate his family which he believed was caught up and had been pinned down essentially for hours it is extremely dangerous neighborhoods i'm joined now by a human rights activist and witness. can you tell us exactly what you saw with
4:20 am
respect to the death of this young man. with respect to the death all together there were full shots fired the first one missed him but remained it to be aimed for him the second one was fatal. which caused him to fall down on the ground and the third one was i guess for them to make sure that they had got him basically do you have any reason to believe he was caught up in militant no not at all he was as far as we are aware he was looking for his family he was frantic he was he was leading the way. he was on the phone and he knew the admin really had wanted to do was find that resulted in his death there was supposed to be a ceasefire as well however as we settle into the region there was bombing nearby there was shelling nearby and snipers shooting yes indeed so that some of the detail of this incident on shows are you kidding this young gentleman this off to.
4:21 am
an israeli defense force spokesperson and told my colleague you know neal they're doing old to protect the lives of civilians and the hamas minister of the interior specifically instructed the civilian population in gaza not to leave their homes not to leave the instructions not to follow the instructions of the military provided what you knew these innocent people were in their homes and yet you still decided to strike was not your decision we provided as much warning as we could and at the end we had to attack certain targets that are resulting in the terrorise ation of our entire public and one of the latest attacks really military the use flechette shells with spray are thousands of tiny and potentially lethal metal darts we've seen that some rules of humanitarian law render their use in the gaza strip illegal as an imprecise weapon is more likely to result in civilian injuries which of course we have seen in spades why do you ignore international law in this case you can say with full confidence and with full sincerity that any weapon that
4:22 am
is being used by the i.d.f. is done so in line with international law and we're seeing hospitals schools media offices essentially sick people children and the ordinary working man and woman being hit in these places you know overwhelmingly why is this they're not being targeted and the reason the reason that they are not leaving and following the instructions that we are giving them is because hamas finds it in its assets to leave them in these areas. and sunday's bloodshed forced the u.n. security council to call for an immediate ceasefire in gaza and the u.s. secretary of state john kerry expected in egypt to support a regional efforts to reach a solution my colleague sean thomas discussed the trip with former cia officer dr charles cogan. there's not going to be peace as long as netanyahu is prime minister he doesn't want it and with all the efforts of kerry which were ideological it was netanyahu who broke the talks off after israel refused to release the finer trunk
4:23 am
of kind of standing position is back in april john kerry the u.s. secretary of state was recently caught off mike talking about the israeli tactics in gaza let's listen in to what he had to say it's a hell of a pinpoint operation it's a hell of a pinpoint operation. really. underscores first we've got to get over there. i think we have to go to night i think it's crazy to sit around can we expect that to turn into some type of a concrete action it's very difficult because these neighborhood neighborhoods are very crowded and there are launching sites within the neighborhoods there are stray actions that go wrong like the killing of the for palestinian teenager or youths on the beach last wednesday but i think the the i.d.f. does make an effort they send out warnings but it's a very very messy situation and and it's what you must stop by and maybe maybe
4:24 am
kerry can do something it's way out of hand and is kerry seems quite accurate the head of the pinpoint operation. that's going to a global snapshot here in our international some other international headlines and brief the b.b.c. protests hundreds gathering outside the b.b.c. broadcasting house in belfast accusing the corporation of pro israeli bias in covering the conflict protesters lit candles and held a minute of silence for the victims of the military campaign a petition criticizing the b.b.c.'s reporting on the issue collected forty five thousand signatures. not to be defied a ban on pro palestinian rallies and took to the streets in a paris suburb they set fire to cars. it's rated show blew off some fireworks and the police responded with their own fireworks featuring tear gas and rubber bullets thirteen people arrested the second time in two days pro palestinian demonstrators have clashed with police and. to libya where rival militias
4:25 am
a battling for control of the capital's international left five people reportedly killed in the latest attack civilians among them missiles and rockets have been used during fighting for the airport which has now been ongoing for a week the militias are made up mostly of former rebels country was thrown into anarchy and chaos since the ousting of moammar gadhafi three years ago. unidentified gunman two buses carrying ruling party supporters in nicaragua five people killed twenty injured in the attacks of the victims were returning from celebrations marking the anniversary of the sandinista revolution that brought down a u.s. back to the ship thirty five years ago. this projection only decorated the walls of the u.s. embassy i'm in for about five minutes but that was more than enough time for the online news to get about it. has all the details of right now. this story
4:26 am
a story as well bolivia now allowing kids as young as ten to be officially employed . the south american nation as a lead legalized child labor. or after the break a special report on canada's black gold rush. in florida the debate over whether illegal immigrants should be able to get driver's licenses is heating up one group called the living with angels says that they should be allowed behind the wheel to support this view the using. classic argument that comes up a lot in the media they see that not a lot of people for it are legal so if you're not legal you can't have a driver's license what's with that this is like when people say well we should legalize drugs because people use them anyway or we should legalize prostitution
4:27 am
because people will do it anyway so such i think they mean it's everyone comes here illegally anyways we may as well let them drive so if enough people do something we currently consider illegal does that make it ok maybe sometimes but in the case of illegal immigration rolling out the red carpet for people to come to a nation illegally just empowers more people to come and it certainly spits in the face of locals and legal immigrants who do obey the rules and grok recy so here i would say no driver's licenses for illegals in florida yeah there might be millions of them in the usa but that doesn't justify society bending over to make their lives comfortable if you want to drive in america be born american or become one of the legal way but that's just my opinion. and i think that afghans are invincible i mean they're two independent minded they love freedom. they don't want to see foreigners in their country and will fight to get a real a war till the end. my
