instrument. israel announcing a complete withdrawal of troops from gaza as a new three day cease fire takes hold. here reportedly massing military hardware around east ukraine is industrial done as we look at how civilians there spend their days in basements fearing a possible all out assault. american officials slam a covert u.s. the idea operation to still going to rest in cuba under the guise of a beneficial health program.

noon in moscow i'm not going to have you with us our top story this hour israel and ours is a complete withdrawal of troops from gaza and these are live pictures from the area and you seventy two hour cease fire in place the last three day truce collapsed soon after it started policy or has more. a seventy two hour wait temporary cease fire has now been effected just moments before it in fact was implemented they will be rations of rockets fired at israel that the same time these radio military was responding with a strikes over gaza we're hearing from these radio army is that all its soldiers have now gone said this follows overnight destruction of tunnels there and according to figures that we've been given from the israeli defense forces they say that they have managed to destroy fifty two what they call underground infiltration passages they've killed nine hundred militant fighters but of course this is coming to him the price let's not forget that somewhere in the region of one thousand nine hundred gaza. i have killed the majority of them civilians there is

a palestinian authority hamas delegation that is in cairo for talks we are being told that the idea is that during this seventy two hour cease fire news really did occasion will arrive in the egyptian capital and negotiations will take place for a permanent end to hostilities you know we don't have any concrete information as to what are the terms of this proposal at the moment but what we do understand and this is information coming from an israeli spokesperson that it's much the same ceasefire proposal that was put forward three weeks ago israel is calling for a complete militarization of the gaza strip a must for its side is assisting there be a lifting of the siege that israel has imposed on gaza now there is a silent voice here in israel but it is a voice that is struggling to be heard and that is the voice of israel's lift who are taking to the streets to demand that israel in this operation in gaza.

so who's people are is really they're not jewish even america will behave like this they call themselves beautiful souls. the jewish people. israelis opposed to the military operation are finding it increasingly hard to get their voice heard about the fight when people do speak up they're shouting down and physically attacked it's extremely hard to demonstrate. when you're fighting because the people are doing the fighting are our kids or brothers or husbands people are saying things and selling things and doing things violently that they would never even dared in past years the right wing is more focused than ever now that they need to be executed executed between ass and the arabs there will be no peace they don't want peace if they had wanted peace they wouldn't shoot rockets bombs at us and with every passing week the number of people attending the antiwar protests in central tel aviv to be smaller this is

a pretty poor turnout but it's not unexpected the israeli left is a pretty quiet voice at the moment imagine what they shouting is that their racist government will not bring security and after that it's bad but godless of whether it's in israel or gaza. is one of the few he's not afraid to speak his mind of that home and just watch people dying it's due. to my brother in gaza if you know right now that tomorrow. my uncle died in lebanon thirty years ago i want the war to stop that's it and he's not. one he is not your typical peace activist an operative in israel secret services for more than twenty years the fifty seven year old is now a campaigner at combatants for peace once a new force of the occupation he now works alongside palestinians and former israeli soldiers to dismantle it this israeli left trying to bring exist yes is

trying to be left to be had because. we have a small minority a when there is a war if we can call it what's happening now war people tend to sympathize with with with the state and not to be a to talk against it's not easy to be on the one side of public opinion but for me and others my team hope that with time they will be on the point. side of the street. ten of the. the operation protective edge is the deadliest israeli offensive in years the number of palestinians killed in gaza since the start of july approaching one thousand nine hundred sixty seven israelis have also lost their lives in the fighting marina joshie spoke with alina stahl. from israel's foreign ministry she explained why israel feels the operation is the only option. this is a terror going to zation that we're fighting terrorism is a sham that's one to bring destruction disagreement here was not about him us it

was about civilians innocent civilians they're being killed here yes and unfortunately the from us uses these people as human shields you know i mean she is a war is there on a number of occasions about you know where civilian objects are located in this specifically this particular school why is it that israel has not heeded the u.i. and also said that they found missiles into one risk pools they went out and said it that's un schools that were used to hide missiles this is just another one when israel was warned about this that you know there are civilians in the school sheltering also u.n. secretary ban ki-moon called your action a war crime but you know why does this not unsettle you it unsettles us a lot we would not want to be in this situation in the first place that's why in the beginning we did not start a military operation but once you have rockets flown at you again and again we passed the three thousand rockets that were shot at us in the last month three thousand rockets holy you went out and declared that the hamas has to be militarized meaning they understand that hamas has to weave draw all their weapons

and stop being a threat to the people of israel and they said if you can look at what merkel said you can look at what obama said so actually actually we have a lot of support. over a night when this is a local activists say the ukrainian army has been bombing residential areas of the sea of girl of near the regional capital donetsk they claim forces are using heavy weaponry including rocket launchers that were deployed to the area on monday this is video purported to show some of that hardware deployment and government forces claim the army seeking to control areas surrounding don't you know it's kind of an all out assault on the city people in another suburb also a recent crackdown target say they are just. so you know you did you know they do you know look what you are going to do you get kind of these you very visual review of the business you were.

i. i i so let's take another quick look at a map of the area in order to acquaint you with the geography here they are some of the urban targets of their cherry fire around nat's they have effectively formed a triangle as you can see around the city here goal of because they're in donetsk the regional hub this map of the front line illustrating clearly the target areas to explain the scale of the looming operation we put together some facts about this city it's ukraine's fifth largest city with nearly a million inhabitants last year dennett's green gained its title as the most attractive city for business in ukraine according to forbes magazine it's a top economic hub and the center of the nation's mining industry two years ago its streets were also filled with football fans when it hosted the euro two thousand and twelve semifinal just over one hundred kilometers away east ukraine second

largest city levant continues people barred by the artillery fire almost daily a team of journalists there had a near miss working in the area. and. we went to the film site where shelling to play syrian we still some people at the bus stop and the explosion took place just a few meters from a vehicle blocked most of the blast so the civilians at the bus stop weren't killed shill fragments he vehicle and three of them injured me. just a boat to get out of the car when the last time i was injured when the doctors managed to make sure all of the fragments the area that was bombed was full of civilians and there was a show. that's actually do something every day here in. our correspondent mary if an ocean also in the besieged city says she can barely recognize it from the last time she was there. lugansk is a shadow of its former self it was once a flourishing regional center with

a population of heart and. today it is largely abandoned and dangerous destroyed schools and hospitals silent reminders of an ongoing conflict and this is the hotel in the center of lagos where we used to stay just two weeks ago there were gas here mostly journalists but also ukrainians running from violence in the towns of crime i thought against libya as they used to be a major percentage of the large scale military operation here in eastern ukraine there was also a chinese restaurant on the seventh floor but now as you can see the dow has been shut down the sign says. tahoe is quote the further we go from the center the greater the destruction all of his house was damaged when he shall explode in her garden and sort of the flowers should planted there is now a deep crater. is there i should buy you break a deal is a hoot of them i suggested they. do would you. like other locos here who haven't

already fled the fighting own god has taken shelter in a basement yet to get back you shall not. be a fool to stand much in your pocket be an actual fact to dicky i grew to love you pretty good how i got your back i know those sheltering on the ground seek. and desperate like you know where yeah you know you go up cheer for sure you're not she did very good for you but one night here. as we're speaking nearly two city trumps an act like cows are a constant problem here the lines were apparently repaid just before we arrived at downing street we were ready to go that route but i didn't get out of. it here she really is. going to go out with what they believe the reason shall turn to roll most every apartment building in the gun store and

they're rarely empty this is another basement that the has recently become home to local residents and it's not that they hide here the time of intense shelling and the bodies you can see that is really live here every family has its own place here like a possibility that underground in one of the jury's going to tell me i'm the youngest resident i've seen here so far he shares many of the feelings of deal do people here know that. there's. not just the couple of going. there's only school was at nine pm every day people in different basements we saw it the same thing you know. the ask for god to protect them and we believe in peace but there's the shelling continues around them the furthest a day to plan a had is tomorrow when they say they weren't here again with relief notion are

gone the school ukraine more than four hundred thirty ukrainian troops crossed the russian border appealing for sanctuary some of them have already returned to ukraine but to an area that's free of conflict so largest number of ukrainian personnel to lay down their arms and enter russia but smaller groups have done up. for the latest group describe their motives. fortune sitting on the moon you don't forget what we have always missed so many deaths and other terrible things so all of us are very happy to be here we've been given new clothes and managed to rest and we're very grateful for that. but. we were encircled we had no way out so to keep the manpower safe all commanders decided to escape to russia and i think for no clear reason the ukrainian population is destroying itself because on both sides they are the same people are not in the book. at r.t.

dot com to our history of reported moral issues with pickier of military and some offbeat ways the government thought up tackling the problem. right from the scene. first street. and i would think that you're. on a reporter's twitter. and instagram. be in the. still to come london morning of scotland with a trip to the stars a look at the future of space exploration in great britain. in justifying their stance they're starting all sorts of what they see as

international pass a dance in cost of what they are coming referendum in scotland but the response that they're hearing from the one thing that is illegitimate but what we've been doing is just a little like a marriage if you break into their story good luck america does is right. as a nation for other people. for sundries like russia countries like astray that. america does is right because america doesn't. make it with. the consent she. chooses to give to. choose the stories to. choose the next.

a place in britain to launch these from the government's come up with eight possible remote seaside locations for the potential space space six of them are in scotland where there's an independence referendum in just six weeks some social media responses accuse westminster of dangling a scottish spaceport and the potential local jobs and economic growth that would create as a carrot for scots to stay in the union and to the gas company they will say they want to work very closely with the rest of the commission to the press to go to our side door this would be a complete. countries and that really they would be working towards this so you are already going to or perhaps we scottish national party leader alex semin says that whatever the outcome of the referendum scotland would still be the best location for a new face but the rumble is that scotland won't want to gift an independent scotland
