population its children are entirely deprived of stability and security of both body and mind has now paralyzed live on like a mother and two sisters killed in raids on their hometown in the scars of the seven year old thought she died when she woke up with no feeling in her legs their kids they don't have any guns they don't have any they have little dream i want to say i want to go to the journey i want to have a business there are children what his if. for this country he was waiting for it now there is no i don't gaza snore no jim says the staff themselves are traumatized by the cases they've handled she says the whole population will need psychological help after a cease fire eventually comes just along the corridor or abu abdullah waits as his

son undergoes surgery having lost a hand in the attacks his pregnant wife lost their baby to top it off like hundreds of others they also lost their home totally destroyed in strikes on the pummel shares. neighborhood tens of thousands remain internally displaced having fled injury death and demolition these nine families live in a parking lot below a damaged tower building in gaza city center the eighty family members are lucky not to be sheltering in un run schools in far worse conditions. wednesday. in gaza hundreds of civilians have been killed in less than three weeks palestinians are in every way fatigued by this war it's bitterly felt during the supposed holy days now palestinians call this the age of martyrs. israel has been

dropping these leaflets on the west alleging that hamas is withholding the full number of casualties among its militants but despite the shocking and horrendous number of palestinian civilians killed and mass has an answer for why it's rejected internationally proposed indefinite ceasefire deals we see if there's a battle of freedom we're talking about. is a big one hundred forty miles with two million people being a big sea since eight years that we're talking no fear no airport no products no electricity everything is going to israeli occupation we're going to continue to defend ourselves to have our freedom especially that the wall of this silence this growing international pressure to put an end to all of this but so far both sides remain stubbornly and tragically firm in their stance is harry fear r.t. . this is r.t. international let's bring you back to these pictures right now of these are live from central gaza and fact over the past few hours even the past few days here at

r.t. we've not seen plumes of smoke as large as this one in fact you can see the flames down below obscured by a lot of the buildings suggesting though an inferno behind these buildings here and the plumes of smoke absolutely enormous as israel continues its incursion into gaza as over a thousand palestinians have been killed in that campaign so far with israel losing around fifty soldiers and three civilians but dozens of reservists are now refusing to take part they've signed a petition to denounce the offensive and here at r.t. international we had a chance to speak with one of them. we're not willing to be good israelis and to support their military adventures to support the the oppression of the native population but we have to remember that the population of this country and the majority of it are the palestinians even if whether they're in palestine itself or whether they're refugees so we can just count ourselves among israeli jews and ask

our and ask ourselves whether you know whether we're close enough to the soldiers to the government of the establishment we have to think about the people of this country and of this region and the best interests of everybody involved it's impossible to stay unmoved and yet it is possible because the society around us israeli society. is so militarized is so caught up in. this in not terroristic propaganda in education that it. almost entirely supports support for the operation even encouraging their government to go further to kill more during the course of this operation over six hundred protesters against the operation against the war have been arrested and are still under arrest for trumped up charges you know because the. police brings up against you one day

here they want to suppress the protests and they accuse you of assaulting them or illegal assembly or obstructing policemen and in the line of duty with these sorts of accusation. thanks for joining us c.e. observers working at the crash site of the malaysian airline m.h. seventeen in east ukraine they say that they are sick and tired of being interrupted by gunfire. forces claim to be closing in on the resistance hub of dawn yet and then so. they've retaken control of several towns very close to the crash site actually within the area right here which had been declared a no combat zone over these claims have been refuted by the self-proclaimed authorities in the region warning we are about to show you some very graphic footage so this is what happened to a care home for the elderly in the city of new guns after it was hit by shells fired by government troops five people were killed all of them were outside during

the attack and extensive damage was also calls to the building and residential areas have apparently come under fire again in the town of the torres clashes reportedly underway in the city but there have been no reports of casualties as yet . no reports from the russia or ukraine. is that you get a couple of days away c.e. and these are national team of forensic experts plus the international police force involving nationals and us straight nationals they can get to the site of the crash as the fighting they've been seeing is between the ends of government forces and the ukrainian military now this is all happening despite the announcement of a forty kilometer. presence that's clearly being violated meanwhile the civilians it continues its eye both in that place near the crash site of the malaysian airlines flight plus in other cities surrounding the city of

donetsk which is one of the largest cities in eastern ukraine. images that released by washington which purport to show how russia attacked eastern ukraine has led to much more speculation in the media the images were posted on twitter by a washington official. nature can cut through the spin. some journalist received the satellite pictures which the u.s. presents as evidence of russian shelling into ukraine via e-mail but much of the world found out about it from the twitter account of the u.s. ambassador to ukraine one of the images according to u.s. officials shows russian self-propelled artillery in washer and the other part of that same image u.s. intelligence determined shows craters inside ukraine indicating strikes from artillery the date on the picture is july twenty third these images have changed quite a few hands before they made their way into the embassadors tweets on all of these

pictures you see the name of the company digital globe which is a commercial provider of satellite imagery and aerial photos the office of the director of national intelligence is said to have analyzed the pictures and written all these captions with their analysis and then they handed it to the city apartment to be released twitter the spokesperson of the russian defense ministry had this to say such materials were posted on twitter coincidentally since it's impossible to establish their authenticity due to lack of exact reference to the location and the extremely low resolution. journalists now operate in an environment where both sides that is the u.s. and russia brushoff evidence put forward by the other u.s. officials attack media that they're to even question the information that they put forward so r t came under yet another attack this time on twitter here's the u.s. embassy in washington responding to our news tweets about the satellite images it says considering who pays artists bills it's not surprising that are to questions

validity of u.s. satellite evidence and then there is another tweet saying given some of the experts shown on our teeth very hard to believe anything they say one has to wonder if the underlying implication is that everybody absolutely must believe everything the u.s. government says and presents this evidence well there's not much questioning in the u.s. mainstream media c.n.n. has learned u.s. intelligence satellites and radars have monitored repeated or chilly retired from the russian side of the border for the last several days in washington i'm going to check out our team and now russia is a military industry is moving to quickly make itself in the armed forces self sufficient it comes after ukraine which had been supplying around thirty percent of all parts for russian military hardware broke off cooperation with moscow ukraine used to provide engines for the m i twenty four a helicopters the hind which had been in operation for decades the currently used by fifty eight countries also one

of russia's newish jets the state of the art yet one thirty advanced training aircraft also received some of its parts from ukraine. the guidance systems for the backbone of russia's nuclear deterrent the s.s. eighteen satan ballistic missiles they were made in ukraine as well plus the soyuz rockets which are currently the only way for manned flights to the international space station were also made with some ukrainian account of parts and components it's estimated the total cost of setting up the production of all these parts in russia will come to approximately two hundred fifty million dollars one expert says it won't take much more than a couple of years. in the upper part in the radiation levels we never bought any complete weapons from ukraine they simply supplied us with parts or sections of various hardware systems so in that sense we were never fully dependent on ukraine in the first place right now we're only talking about pars and it's much easier to

start making them here in russia instead of producing something completely new the main efforts will be focused on making engineers because that is a labor intensive process however i think that within two and a half years our military industrial complex will be able to start mass producing the engine we used to buy from ukraine. it's where you can find all the very latest developments in the ongoing ukraine crisis of course on air and online dot com still ahead for you today here on r.t. international last orders for london pubs we look at why the u.k. is watering holes are closing down only to be replaced with supermarkets and luxury housing. just for you hear of a massive jihad jihadist rally though this is not from syria or iraq that right there is in the very heart over you ever find out what the locals in the hague had to say about the sanction demonstration.

this is the media leave us so we leave that maybe. by the same motions secure. your party is in the. shoes that no one is asking with the guests that you deserve answers from. politics. if you drive people away from the dollar many people now it must be sitting there saying gosh if we have u.s. dollars and the u.s. decides they don't like us they're going to put sanctions on us so people more and more people will say maybe i should use the u.s. dollar.

dramas that's trying to be ignored. stories others refuse to notice. the food since changing the world lights now. so picture of today's events my own designs from around the globe. dropped to. fifty. right to see. first strike. and i think that your.

orders. thanks for joining us not far off from the world update but for now in qatar where migrant workers who help to build luxury offices for the organizers of the twenty twenty two world cup well they haven't been paid for a year an investigation by britain's guardian newspaper found them living in inhuman conditions and constant fear of being imprisoned after being deliberately left without paperwork or the current sponsorship system it's known as kafala it basically chains foreign workers to a single employer who can then treat stuff badly seemingly without consequence all punishment either a small rooms infested with cockroaches often house up to ten immigrants or forced

to work six to seven days a week for ten hours in the searing heat of a forty five degree celsius often leading to sunstroke and vomiting and deaths are allegedly common documents though are illegally seized and medical care is not provided all payment reportedly stops off the first few months sharon borrow from the international trade union confederation she thinks the situation in qatar isn't given enough attention by other governments. look at tower is a slave state it's a modern day slave state you are our own by one person so your contract is signed before you leave your home country but when you get to get to the employer can often simply tear it up or not pay your wages or trade you in any oppressive way they like work as above desperate for work in poor countries so most of these migrants are from nepal india the philippines parts of africa and

they don't understand because nobody tells them what they will face when they get to get our needs not given enough attention by international governments companies governments they can still like to we don't want to work with you until you change the lords until you are balazs the caviler system until you put in place fundamental labor right. she hardest militants from the so-called islamic state are pushing further into syria and iraq just sowing death and destruction all along the way the extremist groups hardline take on islam has even alienated al-qaeda and that has not stopped the dutch government allowing a pro islamic state rally in the hague demonstrators shouted bloodthirsty anti semitic slogans and called on european muslims to support jihad thousands of hate

residents now want the city's mayor sacked for sanctioning the protest and we spoke to geo political analyst f william engdahl he says the islamist group is working hard and is succeeding in destabilizing your. the demonstrators who were chanting death to the jews quite loudly streets of a european country is is really. quite shocking suits are the isis is a creation of the us intelligence in iraq and now. the global caliphate. state they are getting their marching orders their arms are weapons are weapons and it's the vehicle for destabilization destabilizing not all the arabic middle east and beyond but also europe. our frogs opens up the country getting ready to ground asylum to iraq christians thousands of

people from religious minorities in iraq have been forced to flee need you to death threats from the islamic state extremist group christians in most schools whose homes were mocked were forced to convert to islam or pay a special protection. iraq is home to one of the oldest christian communities in the world. several nigerian towns have killed at least fifteen a suicide bomber blew herself up at a gas station in the town of kano and in the state islamists burned down a police station and a military camp boko haram which seeks to establish an islamic state in nigeria has killed more than two thousand civilians just in this year. and twenty one civilians including six children have been killed by islamic terrorists in the philippines radicals from the abu sayyaf network opened fire on two vans carrying people to

a feast marking the end of ramadan some of the victims were part of a volunteer force which had been helping the army fight the militant group the military's been waging a campaign against abu sayyaf for the past two decades. because the group is being a victim by police from vienna's only squad a thousand riot police with water cannons were sent in to clear the building of fifty squatters and the anarchists who were originally invited by the building's owner to come and scare off the old tenants who were refusing to move and make way for a new real estate project however the on a slightly digs decided to stay them. so just where could hundreds of thousands of god intended for the army suddenly go missing you'd be right if you're. honest on the head you can find out more about this enormous and potentially deadly security blunder. plus why a. better than a hearty handshake

a new study confirming the more traditional greeting carries more health risks than the. traditional london pub could soon be history british watering holes are closing down to be replaced with lucrative and pop buildings so we dispatched polly for a pint to find out why. there are a few things more quintessentially british than the pub where pulling pints is a tradition dating back centuries some of the capital's oldest watering holes have been graced by the likes of byron keats charles dickens and even queen elizabeth the first but it could soon be lost orders for the u.k.'s taverns the british beer and publicize the ation says they're disappearing at a rate of fifty per week mutating into ubiquitous convenience store chains supermarkets and most often housing this house has been part of old london town

from the seventeen hundreds it looks quaint but it was recently sold by its owners first staggering twenty seven million pounds and guess what the developers want to do yes turn it into apartments calling time on centuries of ales willing socialising prices for housing in the capital are sky high which is why pub landlord cashing in to property developers is that there are intrinsically appealing buildings well built often in the victorian era with current touristic attractive to residential. it's happening across the whole of the caption at the moment the resolute pub in london's east end didn't live up to its name after the landlady knocked it down and turned it into flats drinkers at the star in north london have included paul mccartney and dustin hoffman but that's not stopped owners punch taverns from selling out to developers who want to deal the death blow

to the friendly local converting it into a luxury mansion west millions of pounds many a celebrity and regular have taken to trying to save it the castle in south london has been shut down but the local community is still putting up fortifications after the pub group that owned it sold out to developers that want to bulldoze it. or wait for it luxury flats however in a sign that local authorities could be waking up to the prospect of a pub apocalypse an application to convert the old white bear in north london into you know what was more than the council could bear so they rejected it but what is it that makes this a really british institution worth saving london pubs i suppose all british pubs are unique in the world they have been described to social level as and what that means is there are many places where barrister so i could rub shoulders alongside

a bin man apart from the bar counter that has heritage it's been going on for many years it's been here since time began london it's about you know tourism is well you know and people want to come to traditional hall to have traditional. food they've got nowhere to go we're going to go to the community you know when you see it all over the country so many clubs are closing down but it's not right and yet in the last decade alone london has lost over a thousand of its legendary watering holes and once they're gone they usually last forever which is why campaigners say or thirty's need to step up their protection of the public house the four times called on the tradition for the final time. in london. so talk to piercings and a replica of peter the great eighteenth century ocean voyager meet the captain who is taking you through the high seas just trying not to walk the plank.

death row inmate just of would rise in pain during a two hour execution this prolonged suffering was not part of the player and not constitutional but an accident and not quite the uni. 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 what 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. but useful to be moved disappointed but if it is you didn't do them by the ones you did. the. same the way from the safe. trade winds in your explorer dream discover.

i am lively. and now i first came on board stand few years ago. i think stand out gives people. people who come on board. maybe they live in the city own work.
