in syria. headlines of the week today welcome to the week international with me. is moving towards. the ukrainian has to use full force on the city already being shelled and bombed extensively. and coming up here the footage we'll show you in just a moment we'll show you inside an apartment right there it is people were living in there at the time and you can see how badly damaged it is just two hundred meters

away from this apartment it was a hospital you can see the second floor really badly damaged with walls funicello and medical equipment destroyed as well. as. are you. and getting out of the area is very dangerous have a look at that film by a dash cam showing a rocket blowing into the highway right before the car literally just meters ahead of it so fortunately the driver survived he says he's alive only because he actually a few days from. now just outside of the city a shell hit a wooden chair turning it into a raging fireball it's right in front of a children's playground as you can clearly see luckily it was empty at the time i

don't have a vital not only for the region but the entire country let's show you why it is ukraine's fifth largest city with a population of nearly a million last year forbes named it the most attractive city for doing business in the whole country it's one of the states main economic hubs so also the center of the nation's mining industry now just two years ago don't yet drew tens of thousands of football fans from all across europe when it was a host city for the euro twenty twelve football championship. and russia along with international media and social networks calling for the release of a russian who is believed is being held by the ukrainian security service of the region obviously photo journalist went missing in the east on tuesday and has not been heard from since until a stand and was working outside on the particularly dangerous area right now it's not the first time reporters have gone missing in ukraine while covering the

conflict just two weeks ago a british man who had been occasionally working for r.t. was also detained he says he was beaten and tortured for three days before being deported so here is how much all spurred on monday more than four hundred ukrainian troops entered russia asking for sanctuary it's the largest number of ukrainian military personnel to lay down their arms and cross the border of so far. but we have witnessed so many deaths and other terrible things all of us are be very happy to be here we've been given a new clue and managed to rest and we're very grateful to which. we were encircled that we had no way out so to keep the manpower say our commanders decided to escape to russia and i think for no clear reason the ukrainian population is destroying because on both sides we and they are the same people are not in the book. and retaining the manpower necessary for the government's operation in the east has not proven easy despite launching three recruitment drive since the start of the

crackdown kiev's army is struggling to fill its rank and file military analysts say the army needs more than eleven billion dollars to replace weapons and the machinery but only a little under eight hundred million that was allocated to the military from the state's reserve fund the soldiers are running out of food and after a lie on handouts and here's a website set up by civil activists calling on people to donate money to the army and just recently had the country's parliament introduced a military tax that says ukraine's leaders appear to be struggling to pay their soldiers as of august the first will have nothing to pay the military now several times by city both already used to dismantle a camp on the kiev central square and raised protesters and the tires on their tents a huge plumes of smoke rose into the air before the firefighters arrived. the barricades up remained on my done since last november and that is when the protests against

the then government really started also the former president you know the covert you're suspended the ukrainian e.u. trade agreement so shortly after the classes of police erupted with the deaths death reported with the mind and violence the three days of february the eighteenth of the twentieth the bloodiest in three months of the standoff and more than seventy people were killed both protesters and police a deal to settle the crisis was signed by young opposition leaders the following day but the riots continued and unico which fled kiev the next day the ukrainian parliament the rada appointed an interim president and government presidential elections were set for may the twenty fifth however attend some barricades or remain on the square despite several attempts by the new wealth already used to dismantle them foreign affairs analyst derrick rose says the situation is all too familiar. actually situations quite ironic to say the least since the revolution

seemed to take an urn where these situations keep the same for the banks it was last november when the process took place so right now it seems to me that all the variety of different people who are really people dead wife's or the livelihood as far as the overall revolution is concerned are simply realizing that the government they have right now is simply replaced the other and they're simply to a point of exit right now it seems like nothing much to exchange overall plus there's a civil war in east so overall if i can sum it up the whole developments in the ukraine is would a complete disaster and there's really nothing else to show for the greek destruction am. and food producers on both sides of the atlantic of warned russia's ban on western imports could lose their billions of dollars of restrictions were imposed after the u.s. and the e.u. along with other nations slapped moscow with sanctions over what they say is

influence in the ukraine crisis peter oliver has details the market for those that back sanctions russia's ban on the import of certain food stamps from the u.s. canada australia norway and 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 culture set to bear the brunt of the import ban e.u. leaders that backed sanctions against russia look likely to face farmers in export

is 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 a 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 then learned with the first contact brussels about compensation some estimates suggest the ban could cost the finnish economy four hundred million euro mostly from dairy exports elsewhere the german trade you. that deals with wholesale foreign trade said the bomb posed a risk to the economy in his country in greece the opposition party says that accuse 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 a warning that sanctions aren't the way to find a solution free trade is a key for peace we shouldn't be in this game of tit for tat thing we sanction is we we should be negotiating on the same table but as it stands russian consumers are going to have to go without certain imports western exports is going to be locked out the russian market peter all over. and ukraine's planning to punish moscow with sanctions of its own restrictions could include stopping the transit of russian gas to europe right now the e.u. gets about a third of its gas from russia where the most about delivered via ukraine cutting that through well it could be very harmful for the industry of european countries to take slovakia or ball garia for example which are almost entirely powered by russia and many others rely on his gas as

a main source as well of course the scheme could be replaced by the south stream project a pipeline project bypassing ukraine its construction though being hindered by e.u. lawmakers and southern nations say they're ready to adjust the rules to try and allow the construction to be finished a political analyst mathias dawn felt believes ukraine's plan could change the way politicians feel about the alternative supply route. i seeing that this proposal will never gets reality since the pressure from brussels by commission and other actors from the national states but furthermore it shows that the ukrainian government is not willing to cooperate at all and sees only their own interest after hearing this is for all the states in southeast europe like austria still being hungary. and bulgaria to lobbying much more to get a very secure supply of costs and if you create is not willing to guarantee it

there will be other options. this week's or a new spot of violence in gaza after the three day truce between israel and hamas expired on friday the sides reverted to the use of force with palestinian civilians suffering the most in a crossfire that. would . be you know nuthin and. only one they did only. when you're trying to. actually much of an. a month long conflict that has claimed more than one thousand one hundred lives has

left gaza and ruin and the return of all still ities brings the region even closer to a humanitarian disaster tens of thousands of homes destroyed or damaged by israeli strikes at least two universities hundreds of schools and mosques were rendered into rubble reports say half a million people displaced that's almost a third of the population for more than a million civilians there's no fresh drinkable water and bill van as failed from the human rights watch he says it's fair to brand the israeli operation a war crime. it has been a catastrophic failure. you know whether or not we will continue to see rocket launches whether or not the israeli political and military leadership feels they are able to claim success now is of less direct concern than the fact that gaza's infrastructure is on the brink of collapse there has been such massive destruction in areas that the israeli military declared

a no go zone that covered almost half of gaza's territory many families were not able to return to the remains of their homes not their homes but what's left of them in large number of attacks we've seen where attacks were launched without any military objects in the area large numbers of civilians getting killed by very precise advanced weapons and you know despite the fact that there were no rockets being launched from their areas that there were no members of palestinian armed groups in those areas but what's most important from our perspective is that there be accountability for the crimes that have been committed here ceasefire or no ceasefire i mean we've seen cease fires in the past be held up as as justifications when western countries or the israeli military claims that hamas violated the cease fire in the past that has been held up as a justification and a claim that any future civilian deaths would be the responsibility of hamas for violating the cease fire and that is completely incorrect and quite dangerous what has to happen is that you know the laws of war need to stop being violated and that

finally for once in gaza there needs to be criminal accountability for war crimes. the campaign has brought the worst devastation and civilian losses in years and it's brought many dissenting voices within the israeli forces themselves. spoke with some of. you know there there are a lot of soldiers a come back and say to yourself you know what the hell are we doing here you know why are we using so much force why we're treating them as a way hannah is one such form israeli soldier she calls herself an anti occupation activist and was one of fifty deserve troops to sign an open letter to the washington post refusing reserve duty document showed the law only about kill and you're in the service i didn't talk about this thing and so many are there you just a part of it but more and more soldiers are choosing not to be part of an army increasingly seen as the bully in the region we are spending billions and billion a rural or. the friend through the system and there is no top of the

front of the. pool. we are not prepared for it very well with a possibility to overcome it five wars in eight years levanon two thousand and six thirty four days more than eight hundred people killed and in the end israel faced an even stronger hizbollah for devastation was with them us two thousand and six eight twelve and fourteen thousand killed international outrage and in the end israel faced a unity government between former rivals hamas and fatah foreign policy was. we had four years in the which we lost the middle east. we lost. we in a way lost egypt. very isolated in the middle east and many would argue more vulnerable the latest operation protective age has done seemingly little

to protect israel in the long term you're not going to finish by trying to physically to start hamas there isn't and there's nothing that indicates that it will work this time or indeed the next time and that's taking its toll on the reputation of what was once considered one of the world's most efficient fighting forces the hope is that the coming days will see a permanent cease fire in place but bottom line gaza is in tatters mistrust between israelis and palestinians is at an all time high policy r.t. tel aviv israeli offensive has been sparking massive protests across the globe this week people once again taking to the streets in new york several hundred marched to the u.n. headquarters to protest the killings of palestinians they called for an end to both tossed. the guise of blockade as i. see. a rally in the german capital saw more than a thousand demonstrators in

a central square waving palestinian flags and chanting anti israel. was one of the largest protests took place in march say in france condemning president for supporting israeli actions and demanding the violence. i am moving twenty thousand people gathered in london raised their voices against the hostilities they called upon their government to stop the arms shipments to israel which were then used to kill the palestinians. now the u.s. has carried out u.s. strikes on militants in iraq and much more after the break. world . science technology innovation all the list i'm elements from around

russia we've got the future covered. put it on your cultural phenomena like the bank of new knowledge face time to time peter limone team. lead. a pleasure to have you with us here on our team today i roll researcher. lead. lead it was a terrible take on a very hard to take a plunge again a little long here is

a place that never had sex with the perfect there's no let. up a little. bit of a. little little leg. play. live. talking international on the weekly thanks for joining us and american submarine has reportedly been chased away from russia's shores apparently the navy spoke at

the vessel in the north and barents sea and sent over an anti submarine strike force teams remind us the story the american submarine was detected near russia's northern border in the bering sea and was shadowed by a navy strike force and an aircraft then you clear powered virginia class submarine is capable of launching twelve tomahawk missiles among other armaments after about half an hour over radio contacts there merican were pushed away from the border by the northern fleet reconnaissance of russia continues from under the water and in the skies in july an american spy plane the rivet joint was reportedly conducting surveillance of the russian military when detected by radar it was then forced to illegally cross into swedish airspace after being chased by a russian fighter jet swedish an american authorities kept silence about the incident for nearly a month but were pushed to admit swedish airspace had been violated after reports in local media over a staunch u.s.

ally sweden is not a member of nato so they infringement cause some anger the swedish press along with their foreign called leagues made sure the violation of the country's borders was firmly made public knowledge. r.t. moscow this week the us approved launched as strikes against as you heard us militants in iraq. i've directed our military to take targeted strikes against eisel terrorist convoys should they move toward the city fighter jets and unmanned drones have already carried out about three rounds of bombing targeting the positions of the so-called islamic state militants a formally known as isis this group has managed to occupy large areas of north western and eastern iraq and declared a caliphate. guests told these jihadists were given more than a leg up by the u.s. in the first place. we really have to look at the reality and kishen of western foreign policy in the middle east has to take place because right now we have

a situation where the west is opposing isis rebels in northern iraq and rightly so but has been tacitly or of personally supporting them in syria is madness these are us weapons us weapons on all sides in this combat just as three years ago in libya and in so many wars when you are the top supplier of weapons to the world seventy nine percent of weapons transfers into the middle east or from the united states you're going to have u.s. weapons halt on all sides which is just fine for absolutely our weapons makers looking for a profit but each fuels just struction. and previously the u.s. in coaching into iraq was a very costly exercise both in terms of human life and financially let's give you some numbers here in the international the white house spent a whopping one point seven trillion dollars on the whole ordeal that's five thousand dollars per second during the occupation each american soldier costs three

hundred fifty thousand to deploy and the government will still need to give billions to its veterans and pension payments and he will activist richard becker says washington will still need to poor even more money into iraq. the cost of the war has not really been added yet in terms of the damage done in iraq the damage done to people. from the united states and the actual cost which will be. hundreds of billions if not trillions of dollars will be added to that in terms of health care in the future and i think people are quite aware of that now what a catastrophe that war was for the people in iraq and also for the people in the united states and on our website right now another leap in space exploration tests and monitoring landing system to deliver the heavy payloads to mons story and video online and. also starting with high tech we tell you about an origami inspired

robot that can assemble itself from a sheet of material. right now on our website. for now n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden has been granted a three year residency in russia snowden fled to the country more than a year ago off to telling the world about the global surveillance projects maintained by the u.s. and u.k. now he's in hiding with his whereabouts unknown he claims as a threat to his life according to his lawyer will now be allowed to move freely across the country or abroad and could even get russian citizenship after five. cuba has slammed the u.s. for trying to jump start political unrest in the country and investigation by the associated press is one failed the secret plan to allegedly infiltrate cuba's political sphere with young latin americans recruited from opposition activists the u.s. agency for international development reportedly hide people to pretend to be tourists

who would then seek out those ready to push for political change said to have used medical education programs for a couple more ations an explanation given by u.s. state department spokesman dr paul to possible over the mission's goals. the first thing that people will ask them is how do we know that you're not cia well strengthening a civil society and empowering a civil society to be more capable is something that that was the focus of this program and again i think what's been communicated with any who have is the secretary comfortable with this apparent mixing of missions we would disagree with that characterization this is undermining the very credibility that is needed in order for these programs which are run directly by us and through other contractors namely n.g.o.s who are killed ing on the goodwill extended toward the u.s. government in order to do their work effectively well i think you're jumping

a bit to a conclusion there i think there are programs around the world that are oriented towards developing more vibrant and capable civil society consistent with democracy promotion programs worldwide and obviously this contract was in line with that and he will activist yeah he believes such cases are undermining trust in america's capacity for doing good. ultimately it makes every single person even people who have entirely positive motives entirely outre stick motives it makes it much more difficult for them to do their work from the point of view of you know not only the goodwill of governments but the the attitude of people's i mean i think quite frankly people are very well informed about these sorts of things they know that since nine hundred sixty there have been any number of u.s. efforts to over the cuban government from assassinations to invasions to the promotion of terrorist base out of miami and so you know people who are trying to coming in and offering aid certainly the people of cuba are not open to this form of manipulation in any large scale way and perhaps they will also be more wary of

n.g.o.s coming and not themselves wanting to be manipulated by a foreign power so it makes it much more difficult for aid providers to provide the aid and it makes it much more difficult difficult for those who are receiving the aid to really know that what they're getting is is a true person to person contact that is for the good of the people as opposed to potentially something with their being used as pawns which i think many people in cuba and around the world for that matter are not interested. in joining us on r.t. international one hundred years on the world has been commemorating the start of the great war but it's what happened on the eastern front that so often gets overlooked in favor of the big battles in the west. and your father now evaluating russia's role in the first truly global conflict. prince ferdinand in late jean set off a chain of events that would lead to the great war within a matter of days the great powers of europe particularly had war on each other when it all started cranks cheered and welcome the fighting little did they know of the

horrors that lay ahead while the battle lines were drawn long before russia joined with britain and france forming the allied powers on one side and on the other side the central powers of austria-hungary in germany later joined by the ottoman empire and both garia while russia fielded five million men at the start almost as much as germany and austria hungary combined and war raged everywhere. and always warships delivered tons of ranks with the explosion shaking the expanse of the sea conflict filled the sky city for the first time the pilots of the first war planes were regarded as he writes the breakthrough for russia came in nine hundred sixteen russian armies managed to ram through enemy lines almost a hundred kilometers into austrian territory threaten the central powers sent thirty divisions to the eastern front easing the burden for the allies in the west

from that moment germany at last the strategic advantage bucks it was too late for russia the people exhausted by rule coupled with the weakened government so read revolution enjoying growing support the bolsheviks street to abandon that power you see let germany have whatever it wants and by nine hundred eighteen the war ended for russia but despite that the road is hard to overstate it carried on each shoulders alone the burden of the eastern front and helped and the war which would claim up to eighteen million lives. and i'm back in just a couple of minutes or an aussie international with more news on including a daring terrorist attack targeting nato military brass. i'm abby martin the stories we cover here are not going to hear any rounds of our

big story the answer that while some talk there's a reason they don't want you to know. the phrase that we. now let's break the set. well told you my language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports so i'm likely to push the no i will leave them to the state department to comment on your latter point to say to mr kerry you have a car is on the docket no. thank you no more weasel words when you they'd a direct question the prepared for a change when you punch be ready for a. printout of speech and a little bit on the freedom to question. if

you leave the. economic up downs in the find out all day long to do your shanghai and the rest of the life but doing the case will be every week. when the european union promised to net ukraine become part of it it clearly contributed to the class abrasion of tensions within ukraine and ukraine will not become part of the european union who won't tell tales ukraine absolutely doesn't have the economic level to become part of the e.u. or then. i know c.n.n. the amazon b c news have taken some slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be

accurate. that was funny but it's close and for the truth from the might think. it's because one whole attention and the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on we're going to be coming back. at our teen years we have a different approach. because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not going. to get a sense of the jokes that will handle the stuff that i've got to. thanks for joining us for the weekly here on r.t. international it was this week that a high ranking u.s.

general was shot dead during a brazen insider attack by an afghan soldier this at a military university near kabul several of the nato members including a german general were wounded the pentagon says the officer is the most senior military official to have been killed in action overseas since the war in vietnam. the assailant who served in the afghan army for three years was also killed in the shootout the taliban praised the attack but didn't claim responsibility a defense analyst. he believes the incident reflects the mood among many afghans after years of having an international occupation. this highlights a large discontent among the afghan population for the presence of international military forces for over a decade and i understand. this you know this latest incident incident of system boiling over of that frustration military presence military operations that haven't necessarily work to provide afghans with basic security and and you know the human

security needs but the population needs livelihoods education and infrastructure that provides roads and sanitation. a new children's book that teaches youngsters about openly carrying weapons cause an uproar among many across the u.s. . and how gun advocacy groups are taking the fight for their rights to the next. a new children's book has hit the bookshelves of america my parents' open carry is designed to explain to children why it is a great idea for their parents to be carrying guns with them everywhere to the thirteen year old character in the books the parents say when seconds count police are minutes away the book already has its supporters and its haters. why do you think it's because people need to know how to take care of themselves protect themselves and to protect the children in the home if they know how to use them for them are you are you

a father very much i have three boys but i don't think that that's good for example . i think that we already have a pretty violent nation as it is so i think that we have nations that are just promoted in the sense some in social media hit back at gun advocates by changing the book's cover irenaeus site the american academy of pediatrics points to grim statistics firearms are one of the top three causes of death among children in the u.s. killing twice as many as cancer injuries from fire arms send an estimated seven thousand children to casualty every year and an additional three thousand died from gunshot wounds before they get to a hospital and despite the growing number of deaths among children gun culture in america seems to be gaining momentum. the documentary film kids and guns features american families who encourage their young children to own and shoot arms . and those who regret ever having given a gun to their child he had

a little twenty two thank you twenty two and i had just purchased it for him first and i purchased from. obviously our great purchased good. and this hank was crossing the creek they said these little rubber slipped. and when he did the better they get hit the guy on. you know when. i ran into several americans is that was asking people what they thought about the children's book you have to explain your kids why your parents carry guns i can't even stretch my mind that it's so for me it's just. very culture shock american children younger than fifteen or nine times more likely to die in a gun related accident and those in the rest of the developed world gun advocates in the us seem variably see all attempts to restrict the use of guns as an

encroachment on the constitution so all meaningful efforts to bring about change have hit a dead end in washington i'm going to check out our team are to some other global headlines for you in brief here an aussie international a tour bus was plunged off a ten meter cliff in tibet killing forty four the boss careened over the edge after a crashing into a pile up involving other vehicles the road where the accident occurred had experienced a massive landside earlier in the week and roads in the mountains are known for being especially dangerous during the summer rainy season. several african countries have declared a state of emergency as the deadly ebola virus continues to spread throughout the continent and i jury of called for volunteers to come forward to help fight the outbreak officials in guinea say the nation has closed its borders with liberia and sierra leone and zambia. travelers from affected countries the un

world health organization a coordinated preventive measures to stop the spread of the virus. drug gangs may go out of their way to protect their illegal crops but it was nature that lent a helping hand this week when russian police tried to raid a site. of the story. it started as an ordinary drugs rate investigators were checking reports about wild cannabis growing on a private property in central russia the reports turned out to be true on the ground they found hundreds of marijuana plants some measuring more than six feet tall that's around two meters but the other thing they found almost ruined the entire operation hidden in the bushes were beehives and as police officers began pulling plants from the ground the bees attacked this woman was stung on her feet in an uneven battle against thousands of angry insects the authorities had to retreat they were only able to finish the operation after putting on protective gear in the end they destroyed around five hundred plants the land's all in claims

he knew it was cannabis but couldn't find the time to pull it out since he was too busy taking care of the bees now he's looking at up to eight years behind bars if it's established that weed was planted there on purpose london is seeking to get the u.k.'s space industry flying high and also scotland in the process polly borken are reporting on the prospects of british space tourism. the scottish are being promised all sorts to stay in the u.k. but now they're being sold on trips to the stars. that's because the british government wants to reach the final frontier or rather build a space port for commercial space travel by twenty eighteen and scotland has a shot at housing the launch pad the u.k. space industry is growing at an astronomical pace and already contributes i've a eleven billion pounds to the u.k. economy every year it employs a with thirty thousand people but as the focus of one british satellite building

company puts it use a space always piggybacking on someone else's rocket so ministers say that this is an industry that needs more room to grow and that means having 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 the scottish spaceport and the potential local jobs and economic growth it would create as a carrot for scots to stay in the union if you listen to the press the go to our side door this is a complete new countries i really think they would be working towards the say are they going to or perhaps we scottish national party leader alex salmond 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 would want to gift an independent scotland a spaceport that would create jobs that could be kept south of the border richard branson's virgin galactic is already advertising space tourism in the window display of its london head. courses from the end of this year anyone willing to stump up one hundred and twenty thousand pounds can take a trip into space from a spaceport in new mexico these are just the sorts of that shows that ministers here hope they can attract with their very own roof site the transport department told on t.v. that it's consultation would focus on this to tbilisi of all eight locations and questions about potential scottish independence were premature either way the shortlist is expected to be unveiled at the end of the year off to the results of

the scottish referendum to come to a party boy k.o.a.t. london. that's all for me for now i do stay with us though venture capital katie that's coming your way next on c.n.n. tonight. well. technology innovation all the least developments around russia we've got the future covered. i think that. over. did you know the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open process is critical to our democracy which albus. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of

our government and our crafts difficult we've been a hydrogen lying handful of trans national corporations that will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once it's all just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem to try and rational debate in a real discussion of critical issues facing america to find a job ready to join the movement then walk away from the big picture. put it on your cultural amarna like these made the news all the face i describe you know. it was.

a pleasure to have you with us here on t.v. today i'm researcher. hello i'm katie program and you're watching venture capital coming up russia fight back and we took food as most a response to international sanctions and we also took into the potential consequences of running european flights crossing as space to asia also russia on a wrong team all agree to an oil trade deal understanding to ease the impacts of such sanctions and some cubby joins me later.
