it's true that while same time there's a reason they don't want you to now you never want to reset you should be completely free now let's break the set. today's news on the week's top stories on r.t. international australian police arrive in don't yet east ukraine to investigate the crash of the malaysian airliner that killed all on board european observers say they have had full access to the. planes carrying the coffins of the remains of those who died in the mh seventeen plane crash have been arriving in the netherlands throughout the week as friends and relatives try to come to terms with their loss. and rush. to radar data from the day of the crash posing some tough questions to ukraine a washington keeps up allegations against moscow without presenting any solid evidence. and israel approves

a new twenty four hour ceasefire in gaza lasting until midnight on sunday but hamas says it will not abide by the truce all soldiers leave gaza. over the weekend of today this is international live from moscow with me thank you for joining us it's been just over a week now since a malaysian airliner crashed in east ukraine killing all two hundred ninety eight on board the investigation is ongoing a group of australian federal police has arrived in the center of resistance in eastern ukraine they'll join investigators already working at the crash site this week also saw the flight data recorders taken to the u.k. where experts are now also searching for clues about what happened to m.h.

one seven and zero s. c.e. observers who have been working at the site of the tragedy for a week now saying they have had full cooperation from the local self-proclaimed. we didn't receive any obstruction and as most of you saw we had security cordon around us most of the time and we did visit the railway station twice or passage to the affected area was incredibly fast at the biggest sites in the afternoon the dutch forensic experts assessed the body recovery work on that site is good. and we again we had pretty good access today late afternoon around sixteen fifteen we arrived at an incident scene we had not yet visited. we noticed multiple pieces of debris there and also we noticed that the scene had not been guarded prior to our arrival. flights carrying the bodies of the mh seventeen victims have been arriving in the netherlands throughout the week military cargo planes with two hundred

twenty seven coffins touched down to eindhoven air base at the king queen and prime minister joint friends and relatives at a ceremony on the first day of national mourning to take place in the country since he was time announced that hundreds of people dressed in white marched through the city in memory of those who died and forensic experts are now identifying and determining the exact number of victims held in the coffins of the first victim a dutch citizen has already been named some unrecovered bodies remain at the crash site to date and as peter wrote about now reports the disaster has very few parallels in recent history. i know for the public so. the people of iraq to pay tribute to a family is restored was part of the very fabric of security just families so within the whole community wouldn't a whole city so everybody knows someone here has been coming you know for years so

you're quite shocked restaurant owners before the engine you know died in the crash along with these laws mother homes which will only this and kevin wasn't on the plate now he's left pick up the pieces you can imagine how big a loss he's lost his parents his grandmother. works in the restaurant also. hope he can manage to. go on like you spend it outside the asian gorge restaurant floral tributes from iowa those who knew the farm concerned more with making the dead wrist than these national climate about investigating the tragedy the main thing is that which are the bodies home return sorry goodbye to them on the proper way ultimately what memorial service is like the one going on behind me show that even in its darkest hour the people of the netherlands are coming together to show that they stand as one peter all of a quality. and the first family of the victims has arrived at the crash site and

australian coupled came to pay tribute to the twenty five year old daughter who was on board the plane. the first thing then be then really hard to see said how we should survive his he said how do we survive sees it we promise al it we have promised our daughter we come here but it's actually as soon as possible does the time factor yeah he should have come here the minute it happened the next day. this week the russian defense ministry presented its information on the plane crash publishing satellite images and radar tracking data from the day of the tragedy but ukraine and washington have still not revealed anything of their own and russia's deputy defense minister questioned the basis for the allegations against moscow and the ukrainian opposition we haven't received any answer from ukraine or from

the trees it to really come into our own poor civil causes for the disaster was more still there corman's based on material from social media. the defense ministry says there was another aircraft did texted in the same flight path as the malaysian airliner crashes data suggesting the second plane was a ukrainian military fighter jet and moscow wants to know what it was doing that satellite images showed a ukrainian surface to air missile launcher system in the area just days before the crash the complex was then apparently moved to an unknown location on the very same day as the tragedy. well in the meantime the u.s. has been rolling out a barrage of accusations against russia washington claims moscow is supplying heavy weapons to the ukrainian opposition and is even firing across the border and the media has been pressing the u.s. government to reveal a solid basis for the allegations that washington has simply cited classified

intelligence social media sources and claims made by the ukrainian government while not all journalists are buying the story. i would like to know what you're basing this new evidence that the russians intend to send any heavier equipment home based on some intelligence information i can't get into sources and methods behind it but i was able to be able to tell you that is there a you tube video or something that you could point us to that i mean you know engines and i'm just wondering if you what what what it is i just said i wasn't going to give you the underlying source for it maybe you could use like you had a loved one it really wasn't it's not with us you're right i don't give you more information just saying that i think the source don't actually ask you a question you're my keiki the source or method would you prefer i not give you the information theory i think that it would be best for all concerned i hear any other question you when you make an allegation like that you're able to back it up with something more than just because i say so. well the mainstream media has been feeding off of the state department's accusations ati's guy nature can not looking

at some of the more recent reports. it took most pundits military experts and incurs in the us mainstream media less than a day to pronounce russia and specifically the russian president guilty of the downing of the mh seventeen this tuesday u.s. intelligence official said they had no evidence that would directly link russia to the tragedy they also said they did not know who exactly pulled the trigger but inertia in the media is a powerful thing and such a lack of evidence does not set back some of the journalists who seem to be absolutely sure about who's to blame maybe you haven't been following it but the u.s. is actually coming out with a lot of its own intelligence connects what happened made seventy to the acts of russian militants and perhaps of the involvement of russia in either training equipping or maybe even assisting one one in this what. exactly and so are you

talking about what what forensic evidence are you referring to. when you're very or release intelligence information about the trajectory no not twitter i do not think peter this is something to be flip about two hundred ninety people lost their lives let's not i think they want to see people i mean it's been very real human intelligence coming out there we slip and divide much of the u.s. media brushed off whatever information comes from the russian government propaganda for instance when presented evidence that ukraine had the capability to shoot down the plane without directly accusing kiev of doing it many journalists have shown clearly that they were not willing to treat all sources equally that is not to say that all journalists do that so really it's the propaganda machine spinning on both sides in an information war certainly has it seen from the russian angle carol is russia's evidence credible.

well how credible is the u.s. evidence. after a u.s. official said there is no proof of the russian president's involvement in the plane crash the us media is looking for another face to put on that tragedy the leader of the pro russian rebels a suspect now in this crime seems defensive even amused by it all rolling his eyes at the question of accountability the bodies. were given to see. if they did you know it's a fantastic story you have to the thing is that as soon as members of oh s. c.e. arrived they notified us that if we start moving the bodies then we will be responsible and have new source information tonight from u.s. government sources about this strange shadowy character who leaves pro russian rebels the jean jacket black t. shirt the role of the eyes he comes across like a sixteen year old being lectured by a parent while the real investigation is only beginning in eastern ukraine the media are hungry for quick with salt quick accusations and

a quick verdict in washington i'm going to check on our team. and they held a gun to my head that's how you case it is in an r.v. contributor graham phillips described his ordeal at the hands of ukraine security forces and he was detained earlier this week before being kicked out on bond for the country for the next three years of graham told us what else happened to him while in detention. they were sending messages from my phone that message that you go r.t. saying all these fine i didn't i didn't send that message they were going through my messages asking me about every single message who sent this to you who is this person how do you know this person was put in a room next to an artillery position that they were firing heavily from that was being fired on i was kept in a cell was detained along with another journalist for deal and he was beaten in front of me i saw soldiers you know kick him in the face and then a soldier said if you can confirm my details and he couldn't guarantee that i was going to live i was blindfolded kept in a cell without water or toilet facilities and then we were separated i was

interrogated i was interrogated all day i was called a terrorist i was told i had a russian passport i was a russian spy they were telling me all day that i had entered ukraine through ukraine and entered it through russia it's all completely completely false they were accusing me of working for terrorists all of these accusations and interrogations and then they took my computer they took my things and i've just go are just recently been released and i was on the train to warsaw coming from the polish border and i just recently discovered that the now all of my accounts have been hacked i want you to recount my e-mail account my youtube account which is obviously money in livelihood someone is deleted two thousand videos from every single account i have facebook contact the time that ukrainian forces have had my computer it was held by the s.b.u. as well they've taken out they've stripped all the passwords are now basically being cyberattacks and despite you now to try and get my life back i mean being

kicked out of the country of ukraine my car was taken by the ukrainian military my money was taken my bullet proof vest i've been deported from a country i own a flat in told i'm an enemy of the state when all i ever did there was report the news which report the truth and i've been told i've been obviously banned from for three years kicked out of the border and there have been cyber attack so basically you know my entire life has been has been taken apart i mean thankfully i'm alive and as you can see an effect of your i but i'm a little shell shocked by the whole experience of just trying to kind of get my bearings and get things back together after what was an ordeal. and kiev has admitted now to detaining and interrogating graham but listen to what the security service had to say before and the report his whereabouts were still unknown. what i know has been taken hostage there is no information as were both there is a bone to the ukrainian military don't apprehend journalists. and according to kiev

graham has been deported for quote national security and territorial integrity concern recently is something geo political analyst patrick henderson is not too sure about i think they're very nervous in the ukraine because they do not want information to escape the type of information that graham phillips is reporting about the true nature of the conflict what we have is clearly a civil war by anyone's definition except for the western media and politicians in europe in the united states are still calling it as as the government in kiev is an anti terror operation meanwhile civilians are being targeted that's the very thing that they're graham phillips is trying to relate to the world i think the policy out of kiev transparency is something they're clearly not very good at. hiding in cover ups right from the beginning of this crisis right all the way back to february to the might gone so why should we expect anything different right now. he

said ukraine has become the world's most dangerous place for journalists according to the international news safety institute they say that since the start of this year working in east ukraine has become more risky than that of iraq syria and even pakistan as well in fact seven media workers have died in the region while covering the conflict between kiev and government forces and for those people were employees of russian newspapers and broadcasters. well thank you for joining us here not international a very short break we're back with more updates from the embattled eastern ukraine . this is the media leave us so we leave the media. bush and security play your part of the physical. issues that no one is asking with to get that you deserve

answers from. our. government system is to help poor people poor women who changed their life and nobody's trying to make money out of those who want to make money out of them by. the whole thing. and yet all.

the international. hasn't been able to take control of the two biggest cities in eastern ukraine this week despite its relentless shelling of the open areas. the latest bombardment took the lives of nineteen most of the two dozen and damaged buildings were residential that also includes a school and a kindergarten coming under attack this is the autumn author of one of the bloodiest scenes where a bus stop full of people came under fire and eye witness described the horror of what they saw. for all that all. of you just heard it all from a. little closer would you favor. or. are you the story over . the floor you will run for the where you live the other people you don't know what you would use what you heard was real good as those cute. now but have not

been as many casualties and don't yet square locals using using the basements to hide in the humanitarian situation is worsening day by day but then you. knew you were in this why do you need your nose near. some buildings on the city's western outskirts have been left in ruins and that's where kiev's army has been trying to advance the fighting has brought local transport to a standstill making it even harder for the refugees to escape the besieged city. now anti government forces are claiming kiev has used banned white phosphorous bombs during its latest shelling i posted this video of the alleged attack online which so far has not been independently verified moscow says it has proof that kiev has used incendiary bombs on at least six different occasions russia's defense ministry claims there were a number of indicators which are characteristic of phosphorous bombs kiev deny all

allegations earlier here at r.t. international we've got the thoughts of former british army officer charles schubert. it shows many of the characteristics one would associate with white phosphorous use in particular it looks like it's an air device that's to say it's been delivered by mortars or artillery or props in aircraft. it's quite some substantial area as you can see by the time it reaches the ground i know so you've got this very characteristic. features of breaking into very small very bright burning particles which as indeed military spokespeople elsewhere have commented upon in their right to to say that it falls very quickly to the ground this is a fear some device white phosphorous will burn it intense heat will burn right through to the bone it's it can't be put out by using water and if civilians or any area it's all my sense of course widespread damage as well as fear and of course very serious injuries if it can be proved white phosphorus has been used against either civilian targets or in an area where it's very likely civilians will be

harmed that could well be repercussions in terms of crimes actions for example ukraine is indeed a signatory to the convention the u.n. convention which governs the use of incendiary weapons. or called for you right now one river in china that is usually clean enough to drink from well in a matter of hours mysteriously turned red. and had a lot more details on why this waterway now looks like a river of blood. clots nasa plans a new space telescope it is calling. it's hoped it will be even more powerful than the hubble to find more of the breakthrough device on our website r.t. dot com. israel has extended a humanitarian truce in garner for another twenty four hours between now and midnight on sunday local time though hamas says it won't stop firing rockets across

the border until the is ready troops have left gaza over one hundred palestinian bodies were recovered from rubble during a lull in fighting on saturday it's now bringing the gaza death toll to over one thousand. details. the israeli security cabinet has agreed to a twenty four hour extension of this united nations humanitarian cease fire that was first implemented early on saturday israeli officials are saying that they will however opposite of the cease fire if there are not any violations and that if in fact they are they reserve the right to act they're also saying that during this twenty four hour extension israeli soldiers will remain inside gaza where they will continue to locate destroy and dismantle tunnels and however we are hearing from a hamas spokesperson that they have rejected this extension of a cease fire that there was an initial twelve hour you're in brokered cease fire that was implemented on saturday that was it here too by both sides it was in

extended for a further four hours and it was during those four hours that the israelis complain that hamas broke the truce there were at least a dozen rockets in their time they were fired at south and central israel and now all of this is happening during a lull in the fighting that has allowed ordinary residents of gaza to use the opportunity to return to their homes and many did so they went back home to assess the damage to collect whatever belongings they could whether it was food or clothing or valuables it was also an opportunity for united nations aid workers to enter the strip to bring with them much needed medical and emergency supplies it was also an opportunity for body recovery and for injured people to be moved to various locations there was a funerals of will hold up the days saturday these of course had to be very quick because many people very fearful as to whether or not there's a lull in fighting would actually last. this news just in here at our international and it's already soldier has been killed by

a mortar shell never gaza border of the idea has now lost more than forty of its soldiers overall is not yet clear what this will mean for the current cease fire but we'll keep you up to date here on r.t. and so emotional. i'll correspondent a video taken from the heart of the conflict it contains some images you may find. of what we do. we're going to move. toward residential building. the man appears to be. lying on the ground. this is the space of the day all together there was. the first one but. the second one was. which caused him to fall down on the ground and the third one

i guess for them to make sure that they had got basically 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 floor and he knew that i am going to want to do is find. in his day there was supposed to be a ceasefire as well however as we said. there was bombing nearby there was shelling nearby and snipers shooting is. israel now saying it's considering a continuation of the operation in gaza despite the truce and a flurry of international diplomatic efforts to bring it about my colleague told scott talk to paul hirsh a spokesman of the israeli foreign ministry explained why it's country is not backing down. they say that all timothy's should be investigated and i agree and i'll tell you what we're going to discover we're going to discover that israel has

taken unprecedented steps in in a very difficult circumstance to minimize and to avoid civilian casualties and we're going to discover that hamas this evil machine with a killer strategy. is perpetrating war crime of the war crime of the war crime and that's what we're going to discover you say that israel is doing all it can to minimize civilian casualties are you doing enough for boys killed on a beach we're hearing about civilians being killed every single day we said repetitively we said it also quietly through diplomatic channels quiet will be all said with quiet calm will be responded to with call this message was rejected out of hand have been three cease fire proposals one by the egyptians one by the united nations one by the international committee for the red cross all three we accepted unconditionally we implemented them all three of which with the glib laws they couldn't care less attitude rejected and violated so i agree with you the this is a real tragedy the responsibility for which lies directly at the doorstep of hamas

let's go to some other international headlines in brief let's jump into the world update now here on r.t. international an american aid worker has tested positive for the deadly ebola virus in liberia it's the first case of a foreigner being infected in west africa was working in monrovia and is now being treated at a local hospital being curable diseases claimed while six hundred seventy two lives now in west africa since february. japan's hot summer has taken at least ten lives the victims died of heat stroke on the west coast where temperatures were nearing forty degrees celsius over eighteen hundred are being treated in hospital for heat exhaustion many of them elderly weather forecasters are expecting the temperatures to become even hotter. and the u.s. embassy in libya has been evacuated and made intensifying rebel clashes in tripoli the mission's stock has been transferred to tunisia under

a military escort the last time the u.s. shut the embassy was in two thousand and eleven during the uprising which toppled moammar gadhafi and the new libyan government is outgunned at the moment by various rebel factions struggling to prevent struggling to take control i should say of various fractured parts of the country. and show you some live pictures right here from genoa in italy where the costa concordia cruise ship has arrived to be scrapped concordia struck a reef and sank near the italian island over google go in two thousand and twelve thirty two people died in that accident the salvage operation took two years and the scrapping process may take another two again those are live pictures for you right now the costa concordia. i was trying bring a bit of a t.v. magic for you here without an international next we take you behind the scenes in the latest edition of fox news news to.

a friend of mine flew in from germany and he said that as he was leaving he looked in to do stand at the airport and on the front page of twelve german publications were basically titles like tunes missile destroyers airplane alluding to the crash malaysian airplane that fell into the combat zone eastern ukraine this isn't just some fluke that my friend saw all these newspapers together the entire mainstream media has made the same bold speculations i think this is interesting for two reasons one the way that the mainstream press jumped onto the story with exactly the same headlines and exactly the same angles really makes me want to start believing in conspiracy theories especially when an investigation had been conducted yet there wasn't any formal evidence yet but from fox to c.n.n. to medium sized german newspapers the speculation of who was at fault for the crash is identical and absolute and to the western media which feels justified to push

for war with anyone who doesn't adopt western values have themselves completely forgotten just what those values are i thought in the glorious west everyone gets a fair trial with due process evidence and a conviction only after their guilt has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt but when enemies of washington need to be demonized i guess all those principles just fly right out the door but that's just my opinion. today and it's signs of progress as you're a piece too. many many. see us as red square demonstrates a feast of hate seeing what you see the good news.
