ukraine says it could cut the transit of russian gas through its territory as part of the economic sanctions against moscow potentially affecting you you say said happily depend on russian energy this winter. the army begins to surround the eastern ukraine largest cities with shells are hitting residential areas hospitals and churches moscow's already providing aid to children injured in the conflict. also the missile strikes resume in gaza after a ceasefire expires with reports suggesting israel's offensive is spurring and to sematic sentiments across the globe.

this is our team to national we're going to go straight into our breaking news this hour the pentagon says u.s. aid to have struck at tillery belonging to islamic state fighters that was being used against kurdish forces defending the northern iraqi city of irbil now the plan to strike positions of the islamic state was announced by u.s. president barack obama on thursday militant fighters are in control of other northern provinces of iraq and syria will have more on that as we get. to our top story ukraine could block the transit of russian gas to europe as part of a set of economic sanctions against moscow approved by parliament let's get the details now from our t.v.

we're going to go who's in here for you know what exactly could this mean for russia and its european gas customers. well obviously it will put forth some problems for russia but we are looking at europe suffering the most stops obviously it gets most of its gas a lot of the countries in europe get a lot of its gas from russia and when we're talking about those in eastern europe such as poland bulgaria slovakia they're the ones getting almost a hundred percent of all their gas needs from russia via ukraine and if indeed the sanctions do go through it means that these countries will be left out in the cold winter and fall of course ukraine is already feeling the brunt of it get a so-called gas war with russia already but now it looks like it wants to follow in the footsteps of european union and the united states impose sanctions on russia to punish moscow but in the way it is going to punish its european neighbors because they will be the ones who will be left out in the cold who will be suffering when the heating season begins and of course those sanctions will actually have to be

implemented first but right is already there and we cannot really call this a healthy climate in the european union and ukraine is. a tough couple of months coming through the winter is just really five months away you are going to school they are following up on those says said possibilities of sanctions against a gas transit from russia to ukraine. now the possibility of a gas blockade comes where the some countries already brace for an economic hit they fear they could lose billions of euros because of russia's ban on food imposed there's already been a warning of mass layoffs for meat producers in belgium and address a drop in income for those exports poultry from the u.s. part of a has more this no market for those that back sanctions russia's ban on the import

of certain food stamps from the u.s. canada australia norway you see the response to the economic sanctions imposed on moscow the ban will block meat fruit vegetables some dairy and fish imports for one year those watching international trade shows that russia is a different animal to other nations sanctions recently what's striking is that when the sanctions were ramped up against iran there was very little iran could do the west didn't really need much from iran that's not the case with russia and i think russia has made very clear that it will retaliate in a proportionate manner with european i agree cultures said to bear the brunt of the import ban e.u. leaders but sanctions against russia look likely to face farmers and exporters demanding compensation for their losses there's someone there know. it's going to

affect us all for us it will take two or three months to collect all remaining crops of oranges and we don't know what will happen if no one buys them if there isn't sufficient market prices will go down and we don't know if we can cover the costs of production because it is so expensive. european food exports to russia worth over twelve billion euros last year if you win year and finland were the first to contact brussels about compensation some estimates suggest the band. cos the finnish economy four hundred million euro mostly from dairy exports elsewhere but the german trade union that deals with wholesale foreign trade said the ban posed a risk to the economy in his country in greece the opposition party accused the current government's actions of being detrimental to farming and in ireland the minister for agriculture said there was real worry particularly regarding cheese exports which were valued at four point five million euro in twenty thirteen

european analysts are warning that sanctions aren't the way to find a solution we trade is a key for peace we shouldn't be in this game of tit for tat thing we sanctions we we should be negotiating the same table but as it stands russian consumers are going to have to go without certain imports western export is going to be locked out the russian market peter all over party. they go into an army is moving in on the largest cities in the country's east in an attempt to cross the antigovernment resistance they now military officials say they're ready troops to find in the streets of danielle scandal ganske are part of the next phase to take back control of the rest of regions very infamous now has more. ukraine's national security and defense council has confirmed that the army is currently preparing to regain control over the major cities in eastern ukraine it is also now confirmed by the officials of what key it calls anti terror carraige in these parts of the

country they spokes person has said that the military will take the city center towns and the villages street after street building after building without specifying which city will come first saying that it will either be dead or lugansk these are big cities of course and these promises from cave to intensify the attacks concerns are that there could be even more civilian deaths in less than four ones of the operation in ukraine more than one thousand people have already been killed ordinary civilians we just couple of days ago visited this city all the guns can we saw a very dramatic picture on the ground many have already caved to the town but many are still inside and they're hiding in their basements they're living under constant shelling and they're mostly women children whole or see and this is the situation now in ukraine. most of those receiving refugees that have

fled the combat zones of e.c. crème a number of children badly hurt in the fighting have now arrived in other washing capital but many more remain stranded under fire as artie's medina acosta reports nine severely injured children have arrived this morning to moscow from dying as you know a number of ambulances were waiting for them here at the city real we station we do know that two of those children were injury during the bombing of the city there was one four year old boy on board of this train and a young girl who was injured during the firefight all these children are in need of urgent medical help doctors who accompanied them see that they only take those who can stay in the refugee camp and clean that only in that area there are over forty children in such condition they see they need a humanitarian corridor but sure for the situation in that area remains too challenging to make that a possibility. the ukrainian capital kiev has witnessed

a turbulent twenty four hours people on the central square for us clashed with police and burned tires later then started to pull up the pavement trouble started when the city authorities tried to ted down tents and barricades that have been on my done since last november that's when now the protests they gave the then government first started following a decision by the former president viktor yanukovych to suspend a ukrainian trade agreement shortly after clashes with police erupted in the first deaths were reported in the mine done violence three days in february became the bloodiest in other three months standoff more than seventy people were killed both protesters as well as police a deal to settle the crisis was signed by. an opposition leaders the following day but why it's continued and the president then fled here the next day the ukrainian parliament appointed and into. i'm president and government presidential elections

were then called for may twenty fifth how the people on my done when not going anyway attends and barricades remained on the square despite several unsuccessful attempts by the new authorities to dismantle them foreign affairs analyst derek munro says of the current situation is all too familia actually situations quite ironic to say the least since the revolution seem to be taken three times to see the return where the situation as it transpired today keep the same point of exit as last november when the process to quakes so right now it seems to me that all the variety of different people who agree people dead lives or the livelihood as far as the overall revolution is concerned are simple realizing that a government they have right now is simply replaced the other and they're simply to a point of exit right now where it seems like nothing much has changed overall plus

there's a civil war in east so overall if i can sum it up the whole developments in ukraine is a bit of complete disaster and there's really nothing else to show for the grief destruction of mayhem. a russian resolution at the u.n. security council calling for all sides to abide by a cease fire at the site of the malaysian plane crash in eastern ukraine has been blocked ambassador vitaly shootin said it was rejected by countries including the us and. the reason was that to the document it didn't condemn antigovernment take a listen unfortunately. the members of the security council some members of the security council reacted in their typical way. being adamantly against any kind of a criticism of the ukrainian a sort of is even though we have a case of. attempted while ation of twenty one six to six.

russia has circulated the document after kim have announced the currency's fire at the site have been guns had been suspended ukrainian authorities say to change their minds and did extend the truth just as russia's resolution was being blocked . breaking news of this hour we're just going to remind you the u.s. has carried out is strikes on a tillery belonging to islamic state fighters near the iraqi city of add a real pentagon spokesperson has confirmed those media reports suggest hundreds of militants have been killed and wounded in the attack president obama had said this would be a last resort only if the jihad is attacked the mainly kurdish area where u.s. personnel are deployed let's discuss this now the latest development with political analyst a william and all author of the book girl full spectrum dominance tall tele terry and democracy in the new world order mr engel obama said strike so would only

happen if his personnel in danger do you think that this is the only reason that this has now gone through and this has happened no i certainly don't think so. i think the obama administration has been extremely critical if not utterly dishonest about policy toward iraq since the emergence of i suspect going to really. tori's military force the isis has been supplied with american weapons let's ask how that happens we're going to be almost without a drop of blood being shed there are reports that isis is nothing but a retooling of the muslim brotherhood supported all along by the obama administration. and syria. elsewhere and this is being financed by qatar the obama administration is quite happy with the isis

developments. and i think what they're good know on the one hand it's an answer to a humanitarian out crying from the roman catholic pope in rome to come to the rescue of thousands of cd christians that are being murdered by the by the cycle past the so called the islamic state this is no state at all but this is the terror operation and the roots of that go back to the cia's mujahedeen operation in afghanistan you can trace their lineage quite quite clearly so i think obama is lying to the world he's lying to the american people about what the u.s. military is doing with these surgical airstrikes let's see how limited they are i think the almost icky government is out of its mind to invite u.s. military to make airstrikes there are other militaries that could make such strikes the could be invited instead but that's another question so also listen so let me

just come back to what you've just said to just to get our viewers in into what you think is this is a lot or just saying is that there's a you think there's other motives to why the u.s. has gone in the however there's been an outcry saying we need help we cannot fly to these militants by ourselves the u.s. being there is going to stop these islamic jihad it's from moving any further into the areas we've seen them take over i don't think go washington is particularly interested in stopping the islamic state or the isis jihad as i think what they're interested in is a. plan so-called joe biden's proposal for splitting iraq into a kurdish part into a shiite part and into a sunni part of the response of obama to pleas of help from prime minister al maliki from the beginning in early june or even a year ago as ben maliki should. sign and bring in the opposition bring in isis

into the dialogue with the government this is like what what the victoria nuland did in ukraine back last november with the i can swear protest to bring in the new your nazi to the openness into a dialogue with the on a covert elected government so the obama administration has not been at all honest in its dealings with with the iraqi government in the past certainly wasn't honest with the world on the justification for the bombing and the inflation of iraq in two thousand and three the weapons of mass destruction i was i was actually going to touch a little bit on that unagi you know that war was dubbed the invasion of iraq as a dumb war why is it then that they getting bay involved again i think it very much has to do with oil but the control of oil and the control of oil is a. pentagon and cia. wall street priority

not because the united states needs the oil for its own economy there is no economy virtually left in the united states but the united states needs to control other nations independently made in bilateral agreements china and iraq russia with. various other nations in the region gas pipelines from iran through iraq into syria the united states or the people that are controlling washington policy that say. they want to prevent that and make sure they control the energy flow lines in order to control china in order to control the emergence of a calmer polled a multi-polar world if you will such as the brics laid the cornerstone for a few weeks ago last month in brazil with the establishment of the anti i.m.f. development bank among the brics nations brazil russia india china and south africa

so i think at this point the people who've run the policy in washington since bretton woods since nine hundred forty five the powerful interest behind the wall street banks behind the military industrial complex that eisenhower warned about these people are terrified that they're losing their grip on the world power and i think it's a better thing for the world if they do that was a very quickly before they destroyed everything and then what happens to the islamic states right now they are reports that they are causing havoc on long they way our long day new path that they've the new caliphate so what happens to them how does the world take control of that well i think they can dry up their financial resources very quickly they can the united states government has the ability to do. the isis author drive within seventy two hours if it so decided it doesn't want to that's my judgment it doesn't want. to do anything about isis because they're quite happy with what the isis is doing to create havoc in the

region they want chaos that's the lesson in egypt with the muslim brotherhood there that's the lesson in syria that solicit in libya samantha powers the united nations and a pastor of the united states' responsibility to protect susan rice the national security advisor obama seems to have extraordinary influence over the president's decision these people want to create chaos and death and destruction there is no other interpretation possible excuse me for being blunt but this is the reality in the world today i think. the more we talk honestly about what's going on the more we can. do something about it and not evolution so. obama has made a mistake in his judgment of the danger of the isis and so forth they know exactly because they supported that the there are reports that the u.s. ambassador in opera is let's see he figure in the isis operation so let's

investigate that mr blunt and very passionate you i thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on this story that's ongoing the watching very carefully here on our to international demand all day everybody is for an adolescent as well as author right the prospect of another round of u.s. military action is concerning many americans who remember the cost of the previous invasion of iraq let's look at the figures the white house spent a huge one point seven trillion dollars on the whole ordeal so every second of the occupation cause american taxpayers a five thousand dollars deploying just one u.s. soldier costs three hundred fifty thousand dollars and billions in pension payments are still to be paid to war veterans more news after this short break.

well not talking about language at all but i will only react to situations i have read the reports so i'm likely to put the no i will leave them to stay current to comment on your latter point save lives or carry out a car is all you're talking no player oh thank you no more weasel words. when you have a direct question be prepared for a change when you when you should be ready for a. critical speech and a little down the freedom to. choose your language. because we can without a federal constitutional such place for such treatments that the consent you. choose to give us the great. chance to storage could impact the.

chance to access to. those also with us here on r t international a ten year old palestinian boy was reportedly before as a victim of israel's a renewed strike on gaza in response to hamas missile attacks the conflict restarted just a cease fire between the two sides expired the month long conflict has claimed almost one thousand five hundred lives the majority of which a palestinian civilians are his policy has more. all of this is happening as a follow on from talks in egypt that failed what we understand is that the main sticking point was a demand put forward by hamas insisting that israel lift its a.t.'s siege on gaza the situation on the ground is extremely tense both here in israel and in the west bank over the past few fridays we've seen what amasses called days of rage with

clashes erupting both in palestinian cities and also kalandia checkpoint between israeli soldiers and protesters so the mood on the ground is extremely tense israeli police are on high alert and people in the west bank itself extremely concerned about what is happening inside gaza the breakdown of adverse humanitarian truce it does spell bad news mostly for the people of gaza where the humanitarian situation has been dying to say the least the latest figures suggest that tens of thousands of homes have been destroyed and damaged more than one hundred schools and mosques have been destroyed and damaged one point eight million gazans have been displaced and at the same time some one million gazans are without access to drinking water. has triggered of protests across the world one of the latest shows over anger came in madrid hundreds of demonstrators took to the

streets demanding israel put an end to the month long offensive now they also call for an end to the occupation of the palestinian territories. some of the protests against the israeli operation have been far from peaceful a string of incidents suggest an increase of anti semitism and attacks on jewish communities in different parts of the world it is we're in a cause over takes a look. we've seen the tragic images. and the public outrage that followed. i and now it appears that backlash has been directed at anyone who has any links to israel or judaism. in sydney australia five teenagers were arrested for allegedly screaming and systematic abuse at a group of jewish school children as young as five. in the french city of toulouse police arrested a man for throwing fire bombs at

a local jewish center in the danish capital copenhagen police had to disperse a pro israel rally fearing for the safety of those taking part in italy rome's historic jewish area has been transformed by anti semites a graffiti and flyers covering shops and walls and even in berlin german protesters were seen barren and systematic banners and chants in hate slogans thousands of brits show up at each procrustean rally calling for an end to israel's operation and demanding the british government stop selling weapons to them foreign office minister baroness also quit calling david cameron's position on gaza morally indefensible others vent their anger more destructively according to the metropolitan police and systematic crimes have doubled in london over the past year and these figures predates israel's a recent operation in gaza on officially it appears there's been an even sharper rises since the conflict began and jewish communities living here in the capital

and beyond are now warning everyone to take extra care with over three hundred and systematic incidents recorded across the u.k. in the first half of the year including twenty two filings attacks their concerns are understandable while politicians scramble to find a peaceful way out of the israeli palestinian conflict there are many other issues which will need resolving too far away from gaza marina cost of our reports in from london forty. some of the global headlines now starting with of the spreading break and it's now been declared a thread of international importers by the world health organization so far over nine hundred people have died in west africa from the largest recorded break of ebola it began in guinea in march and has spread to sierra leone and liberia with some cases in nigeria there is an early license treatment all vaccine for bala and the fatality rate has been about fifty percent. at least
