10:06 pm
so if it's if the rocket hits the western wall of the building it's coming from the west by doing that we were being we were able to establish where the attacks were coming from in for attacks they were coming from areas under the control of the ukrainian army so in four of these attacks in donetsk which killed sixteen civilians we believe that the ukrainian army was responsible for those attacks we are calling a human rights watch is calling on both the ukrainian government and on separatist forces to immediately stop using grad rockets these kinds of indiscriminate weapons in populated areas and the ukrainian government should also investigate these cases where there are where there is reason to believe that we create in government forces were responsible for for the killing of civilians and both sides are denying the use of granite weapons or the use of at least the use of credit weapons in populated areas. that are evidence is quite clear and the ukrainian government

10:12 pm
publishing satellite images and raider tracking data from that day let's take a look here now and muscles are deleted detected rather another aircraft flying near the malaysian plane which appeared to be a ukrainian military jet however cuban says that they're all of its planes were on the ground at the time plus satellite images show a ukrainian rocket launching system in the area just days before the crash but on the same day as the tragedy was apparently moved to an unknown location russia's defense ministry is still waiting for comment on the information it has released we haven't received any from ukraine or from greece commenting on forcible causes for the disaster is more still there are comments based on material from social media. the u.s.
10:13 pm
says the malaysian airliner which crashed killing all two hundred ninety eight people on board was brought down by a surface to air missile washington claims that was fired from territory controlled by militias group it's also criticizes russia for allegedly supporting and to care for says washington 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 space science mentalities 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 can point us to the internet or 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 for me did you say you had a lovely real world view it's not what you actually write don't give you more information just say no i think the source was actually asked you a question here by can give you the source or method would you prefer i not give you the information theory think that it would be best for all concerned here in
10:14 pm
the other question if you say you make an allegation like that you're able to back it up with something more than just because i say so within a few hours of the malaysian plane that kept us regime many western politicians as well as journalists had already made up their minds and was to blame several news outlets pointed the finger at russia by the lack of any investigation results than it as you can as been keeping track of the media frenzy. the media coverage in the west has been largely slanted against public opinion of course response to that kind of coverage look sentiment is that russia is probably involved and if involved they're probably going to cover it up that's where the public sentiment is in the c.n.n. poll the american people got it right in terms of who's to blame here folks fifty one percent said russia isn't directly involved but only the stakes are high whoever shoulders the blame for this atrocity is going to be the target of global
10:15 pm
anger and right now it looks like it's russia's fault because. it's russia's i it's currently the latest twist in this propaganda war the russians through their 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 that. the russian take passengers were already dead 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 put on hold fake fur jeans 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
10:16 pm
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 had the capability to do it contrary to what here is now say 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 images which it says are back up claims that russia has fined fired rockets into ukrainian territory the pictures that spread across social networks and the media they are region is not pm they claim to show the impact of multiple rocket launches are fired over the border from russia and ukrainian military units of the russian parliament says the material contains no actual evidence the u.s. secretary of state insisted that moscow is using heavy weapons despite russia's
10:17 pm
foreign minister denying this in this sunday flying conversation where u.s. treasury official and columnist paul craig roberts told us why he isn't convinced 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. but i have always plenty more for you on our website including three d.

10:20 pm
a un grow could manage terry and truce and it enabled aid workers to bring much needed emergency supplies into the gaza strip as you know hospitals there for example have practically run out of medicine it was also a chance for people inside gaza to return to their homes to try and salvage what little they could to bury the dead and also to recover bodies these ratings have said that they believe that the number of rockets that hamas and islamic jihad have at their disposal has decreased dramatically because of perceived lady 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 hold 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 cessation of hostilities. let's not take a look at a video our correspondents send earlier in the week from one of the words hit areas of gaza and it does contain some disturbing images. what we're doing now

10:22 pm
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 called the israeli prime minister seeking a media to hold to the military operation in gaza he also condemned hamas for firing rockets into israel earlier scott heard from us. that is also operation is merely a response to aggression from harm us. they say that all of it is should be investigated and i agree and i'll tell you what we're going to lose take an unprecedented steps in a very difficult circumstance to minimize and to avoid civilian casualties and we're going to discover that this evil machine with a killer strategy. is perpetrating war crime of the war crime of the war crime and
10:23 pm
