the border highlights and in fact the russians invitations to international monitors to go to those checkpoints and question and see for themselves all to examine and no one has even stepped foot there. president putin invited european observers to russian border checkpoints with ukraine to observe the situation there well it's been two weeks since that invitation and u.s. british and ukrainian diplomats have taken efforts to convince the o.s.c. each not to accept their offer were hoping that such an observing mission would dispel any allegations that these checkpoints are being used to smuggle weapons across the border from russia. set a goal of reiterated russia's desire for a fourth or an objective investigation into the mh haven't seen a plane crash and reminding once again that russia made public ed state of regarding the crash and now it expects its western partners to do the same because so far the u.s. is only side saying classified intelligence data providing is zero providing zero

evidence at the same time as we know the west. more sanctions even though it's unclear what they want from russia or what they want it to do because if we're talking for example about the alleged arms transport then why not take up russia's invitation to go and mourn its or if those are checkpoints in question now in terms of the economic sanctions and the economic repercussions the foreign minister said that he's confident that pretty much russia will turn lemons into lemonade regardless and it will not indulgence an eye for a nice an aria. tit for tat will want to treat the situation with a clear our president has already said we cannot ignore this but getting hysterical and responding with the backlash is beneath a large country and we do not want any histeria we have dignity and will proceed from that the foreign minister also touched upon the so-called end for wars saying

that the western media refuse to accept or even consider for that matter russia's version of events and also said that he's concerned with the fact that regulators in the u.k. are now trying to clamp down on r.t. is a coverage of what is happening at the end of the day he said that what's really important is to show the full picture of what has happened in ukraine and russia's main goal is to ensure peace in ukraine and the only way sergey lavrov believes that this will be achieved is through an all inclusive dialogue the dutch prime minister says that the ongoing violence in eastern ukraine makes it too dangerous to send more international experts to the mh seventeen crash site government troops have stepped up their assault on the resistance forces in the region despite earlier declaring the area where the malaysian airlines jet came down a no combat zone or one culture of the russia ukraine border. we're seeing a huge escalation of fighting right now between forces and government forces in the east of ukraine the city of donetsk

a home to almost one million people is now almost encircled and the city of shots our school where it's about ten fifteen kilometers away from the crash site of malaysia airlines heavy fighting was and still goes on there and that is all despite said there now spends all fun no combat zone in a forty kilometer area international team of experts have been unable to get to the crash site on sunday when they will be able able to continue their mission for remains unknown meanwhile the netherlands a team of experts and involving their malaysian colleagues as well as they always see still currently unable to get to the crash site it was extremely difficult to get out of donetsk it took us at least two days said first day when we left we made it to more than halfway to the russian border but then and some government forces turned us around at one of the checkpoints as saying that's it it's a kilometers away from where we were ukrainian tanks were in fact have gone that still be returned was stopped at a gas station and that sound and all of

a sudden we heard explosions were heard multiple rocket launchers and that was at least a couple of hundred meters away from us the ground was trembling and one said back to the nets guys we were advised by our guides and basically spend the rest of the time sitting on our suitcases waiting for another corridor to open up when it finally did open up at five o'clock in the morning the next day we left right away with sic a very along the routes around us at least six seven hours we crossed the city of shots our square heavy fighting is going on right now as it started happening about the half an hour after we left and that route that would soak is now closed off so we will vary a lucky to leave at the time that would did and with a sigh of relief as soon as we did manage to. cross the russian ukrainian border. now the un says that at least one thousand one hundred twenty nine people have been killed in the ongoing violence in ukraine since mid august and one of the latest

targets for care is artillery the city of goal of the pictures coming from that illustrate perhaps more than anything the real victims of a war like this one the following images i must warn you are extremely graphic. gruesome or. still. to do there's no literal do. the couple and their child are among at least thirteen people who were killed in all of could during sunday's bombardment maternity home in the church were damaged in the attack is of strategic importance for kids army which claims that it has encircled the city here's

have been on the ground but found no trace of russia violating ukraine's border and former white house official paul craig roberts doubts the credibility of washington's latest allegations someone needs to ask the state department did they issue this information by email early on a sunday morning this is a complete dead time in news many american cities are you've been up yet so and cisco 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 sector the united states treasury i was added to the wall street journal this is not the way important news is released ever. moscow maintains its forces are not far into ukraine but civilian casualties on the

the picture of today's. from a good. looking. i. will come back next the israeli army says a single rocket has been launched from gaza on monday and that it responded with three airstrikes the un security council is calling for an immediate and unconditional cease fire in the area a mass that earlier announced a halt to fighting ahead of celebrations to mark the end of ramadan the twenty four hour ceasefire extension failed to hold on sunday first a palestinian militant group rejected the deal firing barrels of rockets from gaza into israel and saying it could not agree to a truce until israel pulled out of garza this prompted israel to shell the area later how much relented and called for the truce to be reinstated but according to

israeli officials failed to comply with its own proposal fighting subsided during the day but there is still no official truce in place are we fear reports now from gaza. this is meant to be a day of celebration giving the islamic context of a holy holiday about really on the ground palestinians are extremely fatigued by this conflict which has caused incredible civilian loss almost everyone you speak to quite literally knows a relative or has themselves directly been caught up in the operation which is lost of course over twenty days and killed hundreds of women and children we've seen hospitals hit directly or indirectly and of course hundreds of homes just a few days ago a taxi driver that the crew here in gaza flossy has been frequenting he was actually assassinated by a drone missile a few hours after we were using him for filming a report for r.t.

the place looks like an incredible war zone i'm joined now by siobhan he is a resident of beit lahia in the north area of the gaza strip just a couple of days ago his home was demolished by israel can you tell us what happened. in the morning as we were we were taking water. we we hear a sheltering and a scary in our in our quarters to evacuate our homes quickly directly i go home i go out of our homes i go to my own kid to evacuate also his homes because they will bomb our home but if sixty. then we evacuated the home my uncle he either didn't evacuate don't because my his his wife or not so we evacuated don't then and they've been coming and the airstrike will bomb we hear our heavy how volk it's sixteen bombs in our homes we found my cousin he's dead. and my my

cousins some of my cousins were injured in this bomb. actually. it's deliberate it's a horrible what's happened there this is unusual this is against the civilian president she'll be able to live there in the quarter we are not hamas and we are not just palestinian. this is an incredible what's happened there in. most of the. poems but actually damaged or no one is what can we do and this is an incredible horrible all for against the civil be bold here in palestinian in gaza strip actually in what's happening in the north. and on. all the borders of gaza strip. we're very sorry to hear about your story

both of the parties israel and hamas are both strong in that position wanting to gain concessions israel wants just strong hamas infrastructure the palestinians here hamas want to gain concessions with respect to the siege of gaza the fighting continues and the civilian loss continues. israeli army has now admitted it fired a mortar round into the courtyard of a u.n. shelter in gaza last week while fighting commands but it says the compound was empty at the time and denied responsibility for the deaths of at least fifteen people there and any weapons being used by israel come from the us which is a major supplier to the i.d.f. portnoy reports. while u.s. president barack obama has joined the global worse of world leaders calling for an immediate cease fire in the middle east the un fortunate hired me is that america has provided most of the weapons the israeli military is currently using to wage war on to gaza washington is the largest single supplier of military equipment to

tell of me as of two thousand nine israel receives more than ninety five percent of its weapons from the united states that's according to britain's former foreign minister david miliband israel also remains the top recipient of u.s. international aid receiving three point one billion dollars in annual foreign military funding during the most recent budget year the us provided two hundred thirty five million dollars towards the production of israel's iron dome anti rocket system and nearly three hundred million dollars of additional u.s. funding towards other missile defense programs these figures are warning to u.s. congress's own think tanks since israel launched operation protective edge three weeks ago hundreds upon hundreds of palestinians have been killed and according to the u.n. one out of every three killed in gaza is a child an additional one hundred forty thousand civilians on the strip have been displaced and while the u.s. has invested in the midst capital in building up israel's military might in turn

has much less control little influence over how television is using the american made missiles and guns it's hard to bring up or not r.t. . ramsey biru editor of the palestine chronicle online newspaper believes that the u.s. is actually feeling the pressure of backing israeli actions. it's hard to imagine a scenario in which the american government of course some of them of the people but the government is going to take any stance that is not consistent with israeli interests the situation has reached such a point that the rest of the world is looking at israel as as a state sponsor of terrorism that is putting a lot of pressure on the americans being the sort of beneath of israel internationally purchased indians in gaza have to have access to the outside world the normal or live under the mercy of sisi and his government normally live under

the mercy of israel and its military and its navy and its and its warplanes there's got to be a situation in palestinians beginner level dignity and their humanity and to be allowed access to the outside war. all lie now at all to you dot com when your children suffer racism even before the war that's the subject of the scandal in calgary after it was revealed the city's only fertility clinic patients from choosing donors read all about it all on a website. he's believed to be the first american to blow himself up in a suicide attack in syria see the full video shot by one of his al qaeda allies. hand over two hundred fifty million dollars or pack your things are still around some but the landlords to some of his low income tenants in washington he's going to teach you can investigate how rising rents are pushing whole families into

having the money to buy the building you know and they say we have first option you know the building we know about here have been. you know you just people people can get a job in the book and i'm. going to go. you know where they are syria is right by d.c. chinatown half of the tenants in this government subsidized building are chinese but as real estate here is booming the chinese community is the one thing this affects not just the chinese community and not just low income families of washington d.c. you have this trend across the u.s. in san francisco one property owner is now trying to evict a ninety eight year old woman from a home where she had lived for fifteen years and kilo i'm glad in the hundred. to alter. the bucket right here. several dozen protesters rallied today calling for an end to the

russian companies and then declared bankrupt in two thousand and six because himself spent more than a decade behind bars for tax evasion and fraud sure the european court of human rights ruled the case was in fact not politically motivated. so around some other news for you from around the globe more than one hundred fifty people have died during two weeks of militia clashes in libya the fierce fighting was for control of tripoli airport and claimed almost one hundred lives france u.k. germany and italy urged their nationals to leave the country and the u.s. and british embassies have been evacuated libya is suffering is worse violence since the two thousand and eleven civil war with the government routinely outgunned by is the miss rebels. iberia is trying to prevent the spread of the deadly ebola virus mass gatherings in the country are now prohibited and border crossings shut the fatal incurable disease has already claimed more than six hundred seventy lives

this technology we can do behavioral experiments in simulation with a degree of fidelity that wasn't possible before and know about its platform will provide interfaces to real systems in simulation we consider this a starting point for completely new develop development in the potters it's not only in robotics that they hope to break ground the program will also seek out new ways to treat brain injuries and mental health problems the project is based in switzerland but over the next ten years will involve institutions europe wide one of the sticking points though is the cost currently estimated at around one point two billion euro funding that's prompted an open letter of protest from neuroscientists who are concerned that money is not going to the right place i joined it very nice to have such large amounts of money devoted to the nearest ones

but then first of all it should indeed be devoted to nursing homes and not a computer in st and there are worries the approach could be all wrong in the end you have two problems rather than one mainly you have still the brain that you don't understand in addition you agree it is the machine that you don't understand with europe still not out of the woods economically and barking on such a project with e.u. money is risky with only one real loser. the taxpayer and they pay twice additional costs increase national debt so tax payers pay first for the initial cost then they face extra costs that come in post planning. all of which has sparked a debate in scientific circles whether it's bet is to keep your mind on your money when it comes to this project or whether the e.u. is correct in spending money on the mind peter all of r.t.

. on the vote with the very latest headlines at the top of the hour stay stay with us that after the break peter live will be weighing in on the israeli palestinian conflict and crosstalk and for the u.k. views it's the sophie shevardnadze joining. a death row inmate joseph would rise in pain during a two hour execution this prolonged suffering was not part of the plan and not constitutional but an accident and not quite a unique wanted that just this year in both oklahoma and my native ohio there have been botched executions due to complications with lethal injection one judge alex kozinski who voted to give would a stay of execution due to the questionable nature of lethal injection drugs said

that the good old firing squad would be a lot more humane and his opinion eight or ten large caliber bullets fired at close range and massive damage causing instant death every time i think lethal injection is popular not for the executed but for society as judge kozinski said shooting someone in the head with a machine gun is instant death so why don't they use the firing squad because that would be messy and raise questions quietly injecting people way from prying public eyes allows the dirty deed to be done without the hassle of ugly news footage i think that it says something odd about society that we must kill the wicked and murderous but could you do it in a bloodless way completely out of sight i don't want to lose my appetite but that's just my opinion.

her mother. is a. hello and welcome to crossfire where all things are considered. in the crosshairs as israel appears to be preparing for still a new.
