9:05 pm
a dozen civilians with this weapon in the region last month its use in residential areas is considered a war crime the group of people to both sides in the conflict not to use such amends one of the authors of this report gave more details about the findings. neither side really seems to take enough precautions to make sure that civilians are not killed or injured and when he uses these kinds of weapons in populated areas it's a really high risk for syrians to be injured and killed and that's what we saw in the pitofsky district that civilians were being killed by these kinds of rockets we were able to buy in looking at the creators looking at the direction from where the rockets were coming from looking at the. walls that were hit by these rockets so if it's if the rocket hits the western wall of a building it's coming from the west by doing that we were being were able to
9:06 pm

9:13 pm
controlled by militia groups it's also criticized russia for allegedly supporting and to kiev forces or sent in has yet to provide evidence for these claims a fact that has not been lost on journalists. 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 the 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 underlined source story mary did you say you had a lovely reworking it's not good you're sure i don't give you more information just saying that i think the source don't actually ask you a question you're my can't give you the source or method would you prefer i not give you the information theory i think that it would be best for all concerned here in the other question you see when you make an allegation like that you're
9:14 pm
able to back it up with something more than just because i say so within a few hours of the malaysian plane catastrophe many western politicians as well as journalists had already made up their minds on who was to blame several news outlets pointed the finger at russia despite the lack of any investigation results in a church camp has been keeping track of the media frenzy. the media coverage in the west has been largely slanted against russia public opinion of course response to that kind of coverage of accent i meant is that russia is probably involved and if involved they're probably going to cover it up that's where the public sentiment is and the c.n.n. poll of the american people got it right in terms of who's to blame here folks fifty one percent said russia's and directly involved only the stakes are high whoever shoulders the blame for this atrocity is going to be the target of global anger and right now it looks like it's russia's fault because. it's russia's fault i it's currently the latest twist in this propaganda war the russians through their
9:15 pm
ambassador here in kuala lumpur presenting their version of events to the malaysian radio there's also been attempts to discredit russian sources of information c.n.n. put out a breakdown of what it called russia's propaganda the first item on the list is the russian take passengers were already did when put aboard the image seventeen but when you follow the link on this page it has an article in russian which reviews all the apparently quote unquote fake fur germans and conspiracy theories that are out there that's what the article says specifically about the theory that the bodies were dead before the crash it says literally then there is information which is simply impossible to believe c.n.n. presents it and calls it the russian take it is not the russian take in the same breakdown right after this dead bodies theory c.n.n. puts russian defense officials showing evidence that ukraine had the capability to shoot down the plane moscow is now saying ukraine did it showing evidence that it
9:16 pm
had the capability to do it contrary to what kiev is now saying that claim is brushed off as propaganda information is now politically charged on all airwaves it seems many journalists have already handed down their verdict in washington i'm going to check on or to. the u.s. state department has released a images which it says the back up claims that russia has fired rockets into ukrainian territory and the pictures have spread across social networks and the media but the origin is not pm they claim to show the impact of multiple rocket launches with the border from russia at ukrainian military units of the russian parliament the material contains no actual evidence you were secretary of state though he insisted that most kids using heavy weapons he spied to russia's foreign minister denying this in this sunday phone conversation when u.s. treasury official and columnist paul craig roberts told us why he isn't convinced
9:17 pm
by these pictures. someone needs to ask the state department did they issue or this information by e-mail early on a sunday morning this is a completely dead time in news many american cities aren't even out yet san francisco los angeles seattle it's still early hours in the morning so. if this was released by the state department which i doubt it's so unprofessional i was a assistant secretary the united states treasury i was added to the wall street journal this is not the way important news is released ever. as always plenty more for you on our website including a three d. printed student from florida universe he changed the life of a six year old boy born with an arm deficiency it cost just a few hundred dollars to build and he can't even plying thieves with it at r.t.
9:18 pm
dot com their story. love russia and navy day ships submarines jet stream's and even robots were paraded nationwide as the day come or a russian fever dream celebrated each year on the last sunday of july all the details and the footage on. the twenty four hours extension between israel and hamas which had been proposed by the united nations failed to hold on sunday first the palestinian militant group rejected the deal firing barrages of rockets from gaza into israel the group explained that it could not agree to a truce until israel pulled out of gaza this prompted israel to continue its operation and the morning later hamas relented and called for the truce should be
9:19 pm
reinstated but according to israeli officials failed to comply with its own proposal according to reports from the area the fighting subsided during the day but there is still no official news deal in place close to it reports there were barrages of rockets fired from gaza at israel in the early hours of sunday morning several were intercepted over the same two of the country and they have been sirens sounding both in the same to and in the south of israel there was also an israeli soldier that was killed by a mortar shell not far from the gaza border that the israeli military fatalities to some forty three now one of those follows a cease fire the loss of zero on saturday vibert sides that ceasefire was a u.n. brokered managed to really into. and it enabled aid workers to bring much needed emergency supplies into the gaza strip as you know hospitals there for example has practically run out of medicine it was also a chance for people inside gaza to return to their homes to try and salvage what
9:20 pm
little they could to bury the dead and also to recover bodies these radios have said that they believe that the number of rockets that hamas and islamic jihad have a beer disposal has decreased dramatically because of this israeli operation and they also believe that the israelis will be forced to remain inside the gaza strip because they say militants in gaza will try to pulled on to the remaining awesome though and extend the fighting in the gaza strip for quite some time so it certainly doesn't look as if he even on the ground is ever going to see a station of hostilities if not take a look at a video our correspondents send us earlier in the week from one of the worst hit areas of gaza it does contain some disturbing images. ok that's what we're doing now. we're going to move. on we're. a pair of samian can be seen among who is on the residential building of the video is believed to show he was being hit by israeli gunfire and the man appears to be
9:21 pm
seeking cover but is hit by a bullet or stretched out on the ground here is what an eyewitness told us. with respect to the death all together there were four shots fired the first one missed him but the remainder three were aimed for him the second one was fatal. which caused him to fall down a lot on the ground and the third one was i guess for them to make sure that they had got him basically he was as far as we are aware he was looking for his family he was frantic he was very misleading the way he was on the floor and he knew the air we wanted to do was find his army that's resulted in his death there was supposed to be a cease fire as well however as reset into the region there was bombing nearby there was shelling nearby and snipers shooting this. on sunday evening barack obama
