noon in moscow i matras it good to have you with us on r.t. international our top story this hour a cease fire between israel and hamas has been violated by fighting only hours into the truce the pause was announced in a joint statement by the united nations and u.s. state department who negotiated a break in the fighting our middle east correspondent also has the details. well we have heard from the united nations and the united states and unconditional seventy two hour cease fire that goes into effect on friday morning now israel says it will end here to this temporary truce but at the same time it will continue to locate and destroy what it calls terror tunnels inside gaza islamic jihad and a massive also said that they will adhere to the streets but as long as israel keeps its fair share of the bargain the temporary pause in fighting a certain not the first we've witnessed in the past week but it is an opportunity for much needed urgent humanitarian relief to be brought into gaza it is

a chance for residents there to stockpile on food for them to bury their dead for them to take care of the injured and at the same time for repairs to take place on the infrastructure of water and energy this comes to a resumption of talks that is slated to take place later on friday in cairo the united states and egypt will be mediating these talks between israel and hamas the latest information we have is that the talks will be in direct no word as of yet when they likely to start now all of this comes as violence between the two sides continued right up until the last moment we are hearing from palestinian sources that fourteen members of one family was killed in an israeli strike a mass has announced friday a day of rage an israeli police are on high alert in the palestinian territories and also in jerusalem but certainly this temporary truce is urgent we have heard

from the united nations that one child is dying every hour in gaza that a quarter of gazans are displaced and have sought shelter in united nations schools and hospitals and other such places third major israeli operation in recent years in two thousand and six operation summer rains lasted five months and led to hundreds of deaths two years later. notorious cast lead an offensive claim more than a thousand palestinian lives the current operation protective edge has exceeded that the number of know the killed now stands at more than four thousand one hundred at the same time israel has lost sixty one soldiers and three civilians during almost four weeks of fighting the conflict left a few untouched it's the civilian death so that a shock to the most sixteen year old farah baker an average palestinian teenager already has seen three israeli offensive she chose to twitter to share the nightmares that have become a daily reality posting her personal photos videos and live commentary of what she and her family are going through her sincerity has brought her thousands of

followers her twitter feed went viral it was picked up by the world's media we spoke with her father a gaza surgeon. this is not a war this is a must not a war is something is the fifth between two equal almost equal forces that civilians the children the women that are injured that there would be demolished bodies this is something horrible i don't i don't imagine how that amidst the this thing to continue people come with severe injured with demolished bodies torn apart or been totally burned but these people would come with smashed or. limbs because of the homes that for on them we saw in many many cases with the with the severe injuries but what's most makes you say very sad when you see a child who has lost his mother as a brother as a brother. but is disabled he can live but will live with this the whole ticket

will with him we have. to leave this is one case she's lying still. in the department she lost a number of family and she's but allies i have a friend over the last three three. has. been totally of his family he just went. in the most and he came back and i don't swear to diminish his house totally israel says it's trying to limit civilian casualties but that hamas is making this impossible my colleague you know neal spoke with paul person from the israeli foreign ministry. we are doing everything we possibly can to limit and to. restrict the civilian casualties in very difficult circumstances we've accepted and implemented in abided by five i think it is ceasefire proposals all of which we were rejected and and violated by

hamas and they have abused the palestinian but it's an obvious. if i was really that missiles it's attacked by your country international journalists covering the conflict have said they've never seen so many children's deaths so many that is their words neither back in the previous war even in libya or syria or iran how do you react to that well first of all i will say to you that i think that the trade in blood the numbers is a little bit distasteful especially since nobody has the numbers i you know i again it's a cold and horrible reality but to to say that it's anything anywhere approaching what goes on in libya and syria of course you and i both know is is simply silly we two are talking two hundred thousand people who've been put in syria and. today it's a one and a half thousand here in tragic circumstances about forty percent of whom are armed terrorists but that leaves too many civilians who have been killed we know of tens

and tens and thousands of booby trapped houses by come us waiting for our soldiers which have caused incredible damage inside gaza but i agree with you a lot of the damage is also being caused by a fall on the on israel's side and this is precisely the reason why we didn't want to be in this conflict. the actions of israel in gaza have been supported at a rally in paris near the israeli embassy at the same time hundreds of people also took to the streets of the french capital to denounce the israeli offensive paris has been the scene of numerous pro israel and pro palestine rallies since the conflict started palestinians have also secured a some radical support uses militants announcing it's only a matter of time before their fighters join the fight against israel bad still to come. up before we get to that parts of eastern ukraine face a humanitarian crisis because of fighting between the army and anti-government forces the gonski has been without power and water for days and is running out of food dozens of civilians killed in the last few days.

and we start to see. when they were i mean we do not talk to you we know. such should we. but. this is not like yeah there's a huge there's no need to look at the people he wasn't you. know mission i need you how do you actually. do not know. this. you know what you should probably not since you are. he has military operation the east is burning a hole in the country's budget it's now having to rely increasingly on diverse ways of raising funds for the military is mineral water its label sporting a local coat of arms and falling bombs title separate is tears along with other

merchandise like hearings in badges it's being sold to help fund the operation wednesday the ukraine government allocated initial seven hundred million dollars to the army it's thought to need at least a billion more to keep the operation going until years and universal war tax has also been introduced in earlier this month science and education spending was cut in favor of the army latest round of e.u. sanctions against russia over the crisis in ukraine has come into force russia's biggest bank among the institutions hit by new regulations along with finance energy in defense sectors are also targeted by the new restrictions peter all of a report from copenhagen the full details have now come out about what the latest round of sanctions entailed what we're looking at is it's three main sectors of the russian economy now in terms of the banking sector we've seen sanctions slapped on five of russia's biggest banks including the biggest spurted bank which will stop them from being able to sell bonds to european investors with regards to the

energy sector what we're going to see is anybody who wants to provide equipment technology to old russia they going to have to get approval looking at things like the continued exploration for oil in the arctic that could be affected by this and when it comes to defense well there is a ban on imports and exports all of into russia however that isn't retroactive none of these are any deals that have gone on in the past any deals that have been agreed they will all be fine and be allowed to progress but they that's basically the brass tacks of walk them of what these latest sanctions until you expert roberdeau or robert oulds and syrup in economic interests are clashing with the blocs political goals. the european union's economy is very fragile at the moment and significant countries within the e.u. notably germany ground of sixty billion pound euros worth of annual trade with

russia. they do not want to have. they all some sanctions of being in place but of course they will not be stringent enough yet through to make sure that fully complies with all the european union forms but of course there's the greatest geopolitical issue whether going to russia should be doing what the united states and the european union say should be doing. in some troubled european economies people don't want to bear austerity policy greek social workers choose to fight we need activists who came to protest after having lost their jobs plots u.s. national security agency standing for data protection specifically the financial data of its former chief leading to suspicions he could be turning a profit the agency is trove of secrets. clean more zero casualties war this is the great fantasy of war mongering

politicians. capturing people is this what do you do if they're innocent killing them easy we were deserve the right to kill any person anywhere any time. they can do that in this region but they can be drowned it's a metal that makes these things sort of virgin politicians and the new kind of power via this technology sad is very tempting.

thirteen minutes past the hour thanks for staying with us some thirteen thousand filipinos being evacuated from libya after one of the citizens was beheaded there several states including france have pulled their nationals out of the country the u.s. evacuated its embassy staff recommending that all americans do the same many experts say the security crisis in libya shows it's turning into a failed state thursday radical militants declared an islamic emirate in benghazi this after two days of fighting that ended with extremists overrunning a special forces base in the capital tripoli weeks of fighting between rival gangs has seen a hundred dead and four hundred wounded seven western nations have already shut their embassies in the country activist who got shot in tells us why he thinks libya has descended into chaos ground was laid for the situation by nato and its allied forces on the ground throughout twenty twenty eleven and former leader of

libya moammar gadhafi made it very clear during the twenty eleven that if you want to turn libya into a country with lawlessness and no central governance like somalia or afghanistan etc the nato and its allies are doing the right thing since october twenty levin when the foreman john maria there is no national government there is no national army or national police force it's plain for all to see that the nato project failed but that's to assume that nato who attended to bring any type of stability to libya they have been made to put you in this mess i'm going to remain putting you in this mess and such as the innocents in libya that libyan oil production is not even a third of what it was in the foreseeable future it looks highly unlikely they'll be any stability let alone democracy in libya the u.s. says is planning its largest ever shipment of hellfire missiles to iraq radicals their control economically vital oil sites and declared an islamic caliphate on the bass lands they control in the country's northwest and

a stasi churkin to has more from new york a record size ship. hellfire missiles to the iraqi government from the u.s. is in the works the u.s. state department is reported to have approved and the pentagon is in the process of preparing to send over five thousand a.g.m. one fourteen type and our missiles and related parts to iraq the cost of this deal is estimated at a whopping seven hundred million dollars american aerospace giant lockheed martin is the prime contractor for the production and supply of these hellfire missiles this comes as the iraqi government continues the fight against isis the islamist militants al qaeda affiliated group who have been raging in the west and north of the country the iraq military is reported to have used up about three hundred hellfire missiles this june and a previous delivery of an additional eight hundred missiles had already been approved to be sent over by the end of this month so this latest large planned shipment is in addition to the missiles that had already been sent over by the u.s.

according to a pentagon press release on this issue the missile directly supports the government of iraq and serves the interests of the people of iraq and the united states it also says that iraq will use the hellfire missile to help improve iraq's security forces capability to support current ongoing ground operations we now know human rights groups have been critical of the use of missiles since they have reportedly been fired at residential neighborhoods and cities where isis has been present specifically human rights watch has called on the u.s. to not send weapons to iraq until baghdad acts in accordance with international law and r t. a look at exactly what the u.s. is saying to iraq the hell fire missile can be fired from the air or land primarily to be used against armored ground targets it's a guided system so it's fairly easy to use the missile covers four hundred fifty meters a second and this comes at a price a single unit can cost more than one hundred thousand dollars there is a potential downside to the iraqi army though being such a powerful tool at their disposal the group it's fighting known as isis has

declared an islamic caliphate on the territories it controls in their advance geodes or take. the advantage of the weaponry left behind by or treating government forces militants have already outmaneuvered the army seizing dozens of u.s. supplied howitzers they also added four thousand machine guns to their arsenal and fifteen hundred humvees that the iraqi army abandoned its fear that the missiles could end up in the hands of extremists as well and you are activists brian becker thinks that arms dealers are the ones who benefit most it's five thousand missiles these are important unishe and they could be have a devastating impact on the battlefield it's good for u.s. arms manufacturers and puts the us back in a position of perhaps a strategic significance in competition with iran with the central government in iraq will it change the equation in the battlefield we don't know that if we step back and look at what's really happened since two thousand and three the united states because of its military intervention in iraq fractured the country and fractured it along ethno sectarian lines and finance shiite militias that financed

sunni militias that financed the kurds the u.s. as a matter of policy for three years has funneled arms and weapons to arm the same so-called islamic extremists in syria and have now fractured syria's the us is trying to get back into iraq to have a decisive impact but it's a divide and rule in strategy that we've see it unfold in both syria and in iraq the militant group formerly known as isis has declared a caliphate in the northwest of the country and say it's only a matter of time before they reach palestine to fight the barbaric jews a group notorious for its atrocities in iraq and syria have captured key sunni cities and forced more than a million iraqis to flee and right a former u.s. army colonel says these lawmakers states' involvement won't help the palestinians. gaza is pretty well surrounded on you know on all sides so that isis fighters themselves would be getting in there i'm not particularly i don't i don't know that that would happen however the pressure that can be put from other areas onto israel

their support in lebanon and the other parts of syria to open up and another front on israel that is where i think israel would would be very concerned about we all ought to be outraged about what israel is doing isis is want to but they certainly don't help the cause of the palestinians because of what isis has done in syria and in iraq. investigating an eight year old cold case the u.k. launching a probe aiming to shed light on the death of a former russian intelligence agent that's on line for you plus we're reporting on how you can government requests for user personal data with us topping the list war on our t.v. . national security agency has another lawsuit to contend with this time over its refusal to disclose the former directors financial data and secrecy have led to suspicions that he could be selling off secrets or he's a marine important i reports. the agency that eroded the meaning of privacy and

indiscriminately peered into the lives of millions of citizens around the world is suddenly subscribing to protecting personal information but only if that person happens to be the former director of the national security agency keith alexander the n.s.a. work uses to release the financial disclosures of the four star general who according to reports is currently raking in some one million dollars a month for his cyber security consulting services this has raised ethical questions and concerns that the former spy chief may be selling high level security secrets and classified information for a lucrative paycheck misusing classified information for profit is a federal felony critics say the only thing alexander has to offer potential clients is the state secrets he knows investigative journalist jason leopold is now suing the spy agency for the release of alexander's documents arguing they're being

withheld unlawfully experts say alexander's financial disclosures can only be suppressed by the u.s. president this is just the latest in a string of lawsuits filed against the n.s.a. since former contractor edward snowden revealed the agency's global surveillance programs and while washington is still struggling to regain trust with americans and allies around the world the man who spearheaded the indiscriminate spy programs remains protected and profitable. r.t. new york. for a cia officer ray mcgovern things that selling classified data is the only possible explanation of general alexander is supposedly huge profits. just think that general alexander would have anything in the way of innovative techniques or would he work in their lead what was he we come up with new ways to do their job you know he would show his previous experience including classified information so that he

can route enrich himself you know in his defense and i'm being sarcastic here i generals like him for story generals only make two hundred and twenty thousand dollars in retirement so clearly he needs to supplement his income but in a million dollars a month sounds a little excessive. running out of some other global headlines in taiwan at least twenty five people killed two hundred seventy six wounded in a series of explosions thought to be caused by underground gas leaks in the sewage system eyewitnesses say dense fog formed over the streets early friday morning and then erupted into multiple blasts tearing up roads flipping over cars firefighters are searching for residents who might be buried under the rubble. argentina's president kirchner denying that her country is facing financial default she stressed and there are still opportunities for a dialogue with debt holders argentina's debt due to be paid at the end of july the

who claim the tax offices the ministry of finance and customs service up until september last year when the ministerial decree so hundreds of them suspended and later fired. and went to bed with a job and work without suddenly our lives were destroyed we had two options to cry over decisions that were made for us all stand up and fight these women staged protests and occasionally block the entrance of the finance ministry demanding the government stop ruining the lives that were there austerity measures recently these demonstrations turned violent with some of them ended up in the hospital accusing riot police of beating them up. the police didn't want us there and they started pushing us avant with the shields the twisted my arm and they took my friend and stuff and the police car even amnesty international accused local cops of abusing their powers and violates in human rights but little has been done to bring those

responsible to justice. this policy is part of the austerity measures agreed upon with our lenders our country can house six hundred seventy thousand public servants this will help our private sector which has been battered so many businesses have shut down and over one million private sector workers were made redundant sooner or later hundreds of thousands will have to depart from the public sector but that will create work for private business. this is where the cleaners are camped out every single day reminding the government that they're not going anywhere and informing the public of what they see as a great injustice the greek supreme court seems to agree with them at one point ordering the finance minister to rehire them only to have that will in turn but it's not over yet. these women now prepared to go back to court this september. some experts claim that even if these women manage to get their jobs back they will never enjoy the same salaries or benefits as they did before but at this point the

only thing these women care about is reclaiming their rights even if that means spending more months protesting merino call survivor points in from athens for its seat next new methods of mobile privacy protection in boom bust stay with us. sometimes i am baffled by the closed little world that a lot of people in the mainstream media must live in they seem shocked and appalled at the fact that around forty percent of the weapons supplied afghanistan have gone missing let's ignore the fact that while americans are going broke the u.s. must rebuild the afghan military and think for just a second what would happen if you sent a lot of weapons into a country in dire economic suffering i'm sure you've heard reports that say that afghan farmers could only make a living off of poppy crops because they just have no the resort so if you throw

a bunch of guns and ammo into the hands of people who have the career choices of poppies or starvation yeah that someone might be willing to sell some bullets to get by also we shouldn't forget that every government our earth has people in it working for their old self interests or others' interests it is totally naive to think that every person involved in the process of transferring weapons will be loyal to the afghan government which seems to have been put in place by a certain hyper power who remain nameless in short if you find this story shocking then you really need to get off the couch and see how the world really works but that's just my opinion.
