i'm going to. give says it's ready to receive moscow's humanitarian aid but only if it's handed over to the red cross nearly three hundred trucks are heading to the russia ukraine border as part of the relief mission. brussels by the fact now that russia has banned e.u. food imports in response to sanctions european officials reportedly want to spoil moscow's plans to get alternative supplies from latin america. secure gas and rubber bullets the u.s. police response to grounds demanding justice for the killing of an armed black teenager by a missouri cop. in

a national coming to life in moscow with me marina joshie ukraine is ready to accept humanitarian aid from moscow but not on a russian trucks cave says a cargo should be handed over to the red cross and the borderless now get more from our team are due caution of on this. well it's a mission that was earlier agreed by cave in moscow so what's happening now. well of the two ukrainian top officials said the time is needed for the international red cross which is contribution to this moscow initiated mission to establish where exactly the aid should go in the ukrainian region now the authorities also clean this humanitarian convoy has not passed a needed certification but at the same time they say that the aid could be transferred across the border and reload it onto trucks that will be approved by

the international red cross now let me remind you that and the first place this humanitarian mission had been agreed by all parties concerned and that the international red cross sad before that it is ready to facilitate this operation is specially with the involvement of all parties and in response to our request the international red cross said that it is at the moment monitoring the situation it is aware that the convoy is approaching the border but it needs no more practical details than it needs clarification regarding the convoy at the same time several officials are really cautious about this mission and some of them even know voiced fears that i might be a covered military operation moscow says that it does not reach international laws and it is a very crucial humanitarian mission as it is especially for daniel skin lugansk

regions that have seriously suffered and the past three months of warfare. are to thank so much for bringing us the details and this discussion with them. and as we just heard several ukrainian and western officials slammed russian aid efforts as an attempt to illegally transfer arms into east ukraine broadcaster neil clark believes politics is getting in the way of humanitarian action. yes today we heard that there's been agreement between russia and the cable for his about this eight complet but then of course we heard from the e.u. and the u.s. they were very much against this they were warning about it being a method of russia illegally invading the country we had the usual neo conservative russia of the poissy saying this was a base by russia to get christie. and so i think that what's happened is that they have been phone calls made from the e.u. and from the u.s. to get cable or at least to change their position on this which is

a great shame because of course people are dying in this region eight hundred thousand refugees over a thousand people killed and they need this aid and people are playing politics with this people are following the russian political agenda and they putting it out before the lives of civilians in eastern ukraine he is shameful. now residential areas in the resistance strongholds of deniece going to guns are being shelled on a daily basis the ukrainian authorities say they will launch a final offensive on the cities with gave advising civilians to leave their homes and evacuate this is the latest video from lugansk that we have received the past few hours here you can see apartment buildings devastated by artillery fire locals are saying that most of the city remains without water or electricity the number of casualties it's hard to verify but one of the residents told us it's getting increasingly hard to hide from the violence. but both in that it's of. the show landed here on the garage you can see what it looks like now there were

three women one didn't manage to get to the bomb shelter and she was killed on the spot there's little left of her but the two other women were hiding in the basement but they were killed by the blast their house and two neighboring houses burned down as well. and this is the aftermath of another artillery bombardment outside the city of donetsk cars came under fire as people apparently trying to enter their resistance from the city of gori let's go which has been pounded by shelling for weeks now it's not clear who carried out the attack and there is no information about the casualties. international rights groups and journalist organizations are stepping up the pressure over the disappearance of a russian photographer in ukraine under a stand and went missing a week ago denies reports that he's being held by a security services college's colleagues rather of the thirty three year old

journalist are drawing public attention to his plight with an online campaign hash tag free andrew the un expressed its hope that the us to news agency reported will be found safe the new york based committee to protect journalists is calling for sanctions immediate release and here's the reaction from human rights watch stressing that andriy has to be freed because there have been no charges pressed against him the european security watchdog also insists he has to be released condemning the practice of arresting journalists now brussels is planning to talk let the american countries out of boosting agricultural exports to russia and that's according to the financial times citing senior officials in nations such as brazil and chile were set to meet the shortfall when russia introduced a foot of barga on a range of european products in response to e.u. sanctions and more on the story from our correspondent in berlin peter all over. well following russia's decision to ban the import of certain foodstuffs and

agricultural produce from from europe as well as other countries in retaliation to the sanctions that were opposed the economic sanctions that were imposed on russia if we understand that brussels are going to try and contact some countries in central and south america in order to dissuade them from selling the blockaded the banned foodstuffs to russia at a decent price now what we're particularly looking at is countries like brazil and chile and brazil is already seen this is an opportunity it has a long trading history with russia it's opened set to open around ninety meat processing plant it's expected that brazil will be the place that russia goes to to try and get its beef and pork also chile which is said to be the place it goes to for fish imports that it's no longer accepting from the european union now those farmers that are here in europe well they're saying that when washington and

brussels came up with the sanctions against russia they weren't thinking about them and they didn't think about the consequences it could have when making a decision to impose sanctions on russia the e.u. should have realized businesses will have problems with russia will let it go and will take responsive measures which we're paying right now we need access to the markets could help solve the deadlock situation in which for example the fruit sector is in elsewhere poland is preparing an appeal to the w t o the world trade organization against the sanctions imposed by russia they say that it infringes upon the rights of particular apples were a huge import to russia from poland what they're saying is it goes against the rules russia says not in the slightest doesn't it of friendship on anything that w t o suggests and it says that nobody was complaining to the w t o when stat sanctions were imposed on russia so what we're seeing is these things to the tats. actions starting to bite and the people that they're impacting on the most of the

farming business and the agricultural industry in europe now is discuss these developments whether robert oulds who's the head of or the bruges group think tank . well thanks so much material for joining us here in our to international talk about this first off what do you make of this move i mean is it more of a political revenge or is it actually aimed to force russia to go back to e.u. products well the sanctions are placed upon russia of course an attempt to orce them to submit to what the european union nato and the united states want to try and limit any boston influence over ukraine and try and impose their will on ukraine of course these moves by. well not really surprising poland has been very aggressive towards russia over this whole crisis in ukraine and has been really pretty much leading the efforts so who and he russia and try and

impose a new government on ukraine that will be very open to western influence and not include by russia but what about the likes of brazil and chile you know what about down what reaction well we get from them will be banned under pressure. well course they are going to be able to take advantage of the russian market is very significant russia will be able to fulfill its its orders in shops from other sources the course of their district in goods from the european union then of course they will get those goods now particularly from south america argentina brazil chile and those two countries that you earlier mentioned the beauty it will be in their economic interests to expand their trade with russia is a very good opportunity for them to forge close links with russia as well so really it will be a mistake of the west imposing the sanctions on russia in the first place with

russia was always likely to respond i don't think that these countries brazil and chile will of course and so there will argentina most certainly will not because they are in commonly in dispute with the united states over an alleged default on their debts so really these countries will not bow to pressure from other states and i would look to expand their links with russia just like china has recently done in terms of gas and oil supplies well but what about you know european and contrary do you think european leaders could have foreseen a retaliation from russia and so avoided losses for their own food producers. well willie it's time that the european union countries as well as perhaps even the united states stop dictating to other countries around the world the mess in ukraine is of course largely been created by united states and european union interference in the funding of opposition groups which led to the political crisis

really the whole situation east of ukraine is not just a recent issue it's been a little been a long running dispute about the powers of the central government people in the east wanted to have a degree of self-determination for many years now of course it was originally an independent republic going back into the. nine hundred eighty eight and of course again in the early one nine hundred twenty s. and the whole desire for these people to have self-determination is a long one an issue simply to blame russia is of course complete misunderstanding of the situation and is really the west trying to manipulate geopolitics for his own t.v. confirms the coming back to the sanctions they are going to be based upon buffett but it was always likely to sit he was sceptical having other sanctions on as we know on our cultural goods into russia and really the european union should think of its own producers should think of its own economic self-interest and not be

trying to push russia around and not be imposing sanctions on them in the first place which of course dubious legality right robert oulds the head of the version group think tanks and thanks so much for your views. applique rage in the u.s. state of missouri spilled over into a second night of clashes with police over the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a cop officers fired tear gas and rubber bullets apper testers who were furious about what they call police brutality and racial profiling. is there for us. tensions chaos and mayhem really have been unraveling here in suburban st louis in the town of ferguson we witnessed tear gas being fired at just a couple dozen people standing around on a street where of course people have been coming out onto the street in the hundreds and thousands since the killing of an unarmed eighteen year old michael

brown took place here the community is outraged because the young man had no weapon however he was fired at multiple times by a police officer and he died as a result of this people have been coming out into the streets protesting violence has been erupting and most certainly we can get in front of our eyes today to are gas was fired at least twice and one of those times when the numbers of people in the street really had died down it was only just a couple dozen people who live in this neighborhood and the police had issued several warnings that they would fire tear gas and they in fact proceeded to do this and of course we do not expect any of these tensions to die down because the locals that we've spoken to most certainly intend to continue coming out to protest in outrage of what happened and while we don't know exactly what unravelled the police have been claiming that an altercation took place between michael michael brown and this police officer but many of the details remain

a big mystery including the identity of this police a police officer who we know now is currently on grieve and this is something that the local community wants to change they want to see accountability happen to certainly police misconduct and police brutality has been a huge issue in this country throughout the last several years. is across the later developments in missouri and of course you can also follow her on twitter for updates as they happen and pictures from the scene. the the in. and i had a national islamophobia or racial profiling a british banking giants used to targeting syrian refugees and students living in the u.k. we talked to those whose accounts were closed down. on

that troy all teach spanish find out more visit eye to eye with that. welcome back this is our team of national the united nations has formed an expert panel to investigate possible war crimes by both sides during the latest conflict in gaza but while hamas hailed the move israel slammed it accusing the future inquiry of bias before it even started a policy or explains. well israel has called the united nations human rights council a kangaroo court it comes after the announcement from the council that it was appointing a three member panel to investigate allegations of possible war crimes now the decision follows an announcement that was made several weeks ago by the haid of the council navi pillay and she said at that time that there is the strong possibility that israel is violating international law and that will power was should hold

israel accountable for possible war crimes she went on to point out that the israelis had hit schools and hit homes and hospitals gaza's only power plant you and premises and that all of this was in violation of the geneva conventions the u.n. chief banking was also in the past spoken out in the harshest terms against israel accusing it of hitting particularly in schools where thousands of gazans who have been displaced by the monthlong fighting were seeking refuge now israel has responded by calling this forty seven member state for women in the words of the country's foreign minister he said it was a terrorist rights council and that its investigations and conclusions were predictable israel excuses the un of being a biased against it and what these radio argument is is that it is him us who should be investigated for what they call double war crimes number one firing rockets at israel and number two using civilians as human shields. and here's where

the recent conflict with israel has caused gaza the tiny strip of land by the sea has been left in ruins and more than nine hundred palestinians were killed tens of thousands of homes were destroyed or damaged by israeli strikes universities over one hundred schools and mosques were reduced to rubble reports say half a million people have been displaced that's almost a third of the population and over a million people are now without access to drinking water. ongoing u.s. airstrikes on jihadists in iraq have not contained a bro or broken of the momentum of the militants and that's according to the pentagon while washington has so far been reluctant to launch another ground invasion bot is now beefing up the flow of weapons to the region u.s. officials say they're seeking to further undermine the so-called islamic state by arming kurdish resistance fighters in northern iraq so far they are only sending light weapons and ammunition but the kurds also one rocket launchers and tanks

they're going to check out their reports some of the weapons used by the geodes were also made in america. thousands of iraqis are helpless in the face of terror from the islamic state the jihadi militants are ruthless and well armed there's the hottest forces in iraq are probably the strongest the hardest forces in the region in the world they are equipped with a vast american weapons and that's how they were able to ethnic cleansing minorities christian and is the the minorities from many areas in kurdistan or south of course then another attack in kurdistan u.s. officials see no alternative to sending weapons to combat the extremists who now fight with american weapons you cannot confront isis with flowers at the same time flooding an already deeply divided country with more weapons could backfire in the future. if there is no american military solution to look for a shift in iraq. only lasting will. as for iraq it's come together and form an

inclusive government president obama may want a unified iraq but the kurds have long wanted out and arming kurdish militia forces could lead to a permanent breakup of iraq any peaceful state say should the kurds but rob would like to bring the region several days and most cities as well as major world they see both kurdish and testing cared for right now it's pressing as the current defense needs are the question is whether the weapons provided the defense today you've. been watching the need to track down part. of the u.s. military began pulling out of iraq in two thousand and nine but left a deadly legacy more than nine billion dollars worth of weapons including tanks and aircraft when those lawmakers stayed militants rolled across northern iraq they captured some of these american weapons and are now putting them to use and with

u.s. arms already on both sides of the barricades washington is now sending weapons to the kurds who are fighting against the jihad is but also once independence from baghdad one political activist told us america and there were actually cultivated the iraqi insurgency by aiding the opposition in neighboring syria. on the one hand we see the. thing hundreds of millions of dollars to support fund and train opposition groups in syria at the same time the us is supporting some through the government against the opposition groups in iraq the confusing part is that. groups behind the uprising in syria and iraq are linked you know and the position in iraq is considered and i mean of the united states but once they cross the border to syria they are funded and armed by the united states definitely foreign

interventions and foreign agendas and dejan have opened the doors wide for all of these extremist groups. state is a small group with five to ten thousand soldiers mostly on pickup trucks they took out thirty five percent of iraq's territory in a week online for you on our website a fractured report on fracking the u.k. government delete some of the passages from what was supposed to be an unbiased study on the controversial shale gas extraction method. having the guts to try and copy spiderman doesn't mean you'll have the skills to tam to climb between two buildings on power cables almost went terribly wrong for this russian there are devil has rights either on the you tube just see why. british banking giant h.s.b.c. has been accused of racial profiling after closing accounts belonging to syrian

refugees and students living in the u.k. earlier it emerged out the bank had shut down the accounts of high profile u.k. based muslim organizations go met with some of his bases former clients. i've never expected that you know so that was a very shocking american from here on to put my car and just one of my car when i called the bank down by discovered that you know there was a word that my congress floated images from syria he's in the u.k. on a student visa studying at london's institute of education since the machine is owned by his bank majid took it up with h.s.b.c. they told him that is accounted been closed and it took several weeks to get an explanation why they said. you know our culture of this decision by the bank is not based on you as a customer i believe you find it hard not to think about it discrimination and he

never made any transfers to syria you know not even outside i'm not from the regime i'm just a student here so why don't why you like. targeted the u.s. the e.u. and the arab league have all imposed sanctions on syria first of all this is the look of what's of course an investigation by the independent newspaper revealed that a number of syrian citizens living in the u.k. have received letters from the bank telling them that their accounts would be shut down h.s.b.c. cited increased requirements concerning payments to and from sanctioned countries two years ago h.s.b.c. was fined nearly two billion dollars by the u.s. after it was discovered that mexican drug money was being laundered through its accounts the bank now says that it follows a five tier assessment system of its customers but critics say that in trying to

stay out of more trouble the high street bank has been overzealous and h.s.b.c. spokes person told r.t. . h.s.b.c. is committed to adopting it and forcing the most effective standards to combat financial crime across its operations globally this applies to customers with links to a country that is subject to international financial sanctions it's not just syrians living in the u.k. who have been left on able to access that cash though last month h.s.b.c. closed the accounts of three muslim organizations one of the groups has said they believe their stance on the conflict in gaza may have triggered the move h.s.b.c. didn't outline a specific reason for the account closures but said that the organizations fell outside of what they called that risk appetite now the banking giant that calls itself the world's local bank could face a formal grilling in parliament to get to the bottom of the accusations of
