wish to know the two camps protect our children. friends as it will join the u.s. in arming the kurds in iraq as washington and its allies get ever more deeply involved in the battle against islamic state jihad is. at least three people are killed as ukraine's army pounds the outskirts of dinny outs with shells the u.n. says more than two thousand people have already been killed in the conflict. and. that denies reports is pressuring latin america countries not to spand the area trade with russia in the wake of moscow's food embargo a european commission spokesperson tells r t what exactly that even means by not pressuring. we are basically explaining them or. i would you would be.

trying to from the current circumstances. more of that interview later in the program here in our national. fortune arteta national coming to you live from moscow with me marina josh welcome to the program more of america's allies are getting involved in iraq france says it will now join the u.s. in sending weapons to kurdish resistance forces in their fight against islamic state hardest meanwhile the british prime minister has cut short his holiday to deal with the crisis and let's now cross live to our correspondent poorly boyko who joins us now live from london well polly why is this rapid european response taking place now. well david cameron went straight into that cobra

emergency meeting as soon as he got back from holiday he'd been in portugal with this family and he came under some criticism from some members of parliament for failing to cut the trip short and come back and take charge of the government's response to the iraq crisis now at the moment british involvement has been limited to humanitarian aid drops over northern iraq where lots of refugees and been trapped on a mountain there and the ministry of defense has also sent a number of helicopters to try and get those refugees out now yesterday a number of tornado jets were sent out to cyprus and then on to iraq to help with those aid drops and the ministry of defense has reiterated that despite the type of as crossed this is still a humanitarian mission only part of the u.k.

but david cameron has come back to intense pressure to launch as strikes in iraq a growing number of politicians have been speaking for it's the threat of u.s. forces. discussed extensively in the media and if you look at the choice of those tornado jets it looks like the option has still been left open if they do decide to go ahead with those strikes because tornado jets a capable of carrying out surveillance missions which is what they're doing right now but they can very quickly be transformed and carry bombs and have a combat role so france has just announced that they are going to provide weapons to cut a stand and there's growing pressure here on the prime minister to step up britain's involvement but also at the same time voices that are wary of becoming in boils and another military conflict especially given the u.k.'s involvement in iraq in the

past. thanks so much for bringing us this update probables reporting from london. now let's get some insight and analysis from an apparent garrulous and french policy expert robert harneys well robert why paris is seeking to get what paris is seeking to gain from getting involved now. well there are a number of reasons why france is getting involved in the previous iraq intervention you will recall france was not on the military committee of nato now thanks to socrates agreement with george bush she is in washington in america the senior nato general is actually french. the french in a difficulty with their foreign policy it is very incoherent in some countries they support murderous islamic elements and neo fascists who go around killing people for no reason at all or of no apparent reason and on the other hand they preach

about human rights this is an issue where they can support america and appear to be on the side of the goodies if i can put it in childish terms that they're helping the kurds defend themselves against a bunch of people who have been killing children and burying people alive and so robert why is this happening now i mean we know that islamics had to hide in the ravaging iraq for a month now why did they take the u.s. and its allies so long to get involved well it's very easy to become very cynical with western foreign policy things are a terrible mess in ukraine the mh seventeen airplane that was shot down increasingly it looks as if it was shot down by the ukrainian government helped and encouraged by nato and the west the western powers are desperate to distract attention from this i just read a newspaper this morning in france a local newspaper there sure me that it was nothing whatever to do is use the

ukrainian government despite the fact that the internet is full of information about the fact that it is so they want to distract attention they also want to protect the oil so the kurds are there if you like is key. takers to protect the oil the kurds think they're going to hope they're going to get out of this. nation state your correspondent talk to a could his dog could just doesn't yet exist the kids hope that it will exist is this a temporary measure to control the islamic extremists and then abandon the kurds to iraq syria and turkey again or is this a genuine attempt to set up. we shall see well you know speaking of. kurdish aspiration and desire to be in a pan and i mean they have been pushing for in the pants for decades so how would how could rather a western military assistance affect the balance of power well be because of apparently had to retreat in the face of the dash is offensive i suspect this was

a tactical retreat to attract the support of the west and said oh oh my god we're retreating help help there you're going to lose control and we're going to lose control of the oil fields what is going to happen with these maniacs so the west's come along and say oh we've got to help you i mean it maybe you can never tell these days you maybe that because we're pushed back around the mosul dam which is a vital dam in iraq or maybe it's just play acting we don't really know but the kurds are protecting the oil fields sabbats what the west wants at the moment. all right so robert harris thanks so much for talking to us live from strasburg there was independent journalist robert harneys talking to us here in our teacher national thank you and on the way violence sweeps the streets. as locals raged for a third night over the fatal shooting of an armed black teenager by an american cop . a regional train has been derailed by

a landslide in a mountainous region in switzerland on the line between the cities of tour and the resort of some or its several carol. this has reportedly plunged into a ravine the news agency reports that police have classified the accident as serious however they gave no further details this is a breaking news story and that we'll be bringing you the latest as we get it here in our to international now to other stories the u.n. says more than sixty people a day are killed or wounded in east ukraine with an estimated two thousand people now having lost their lives in the conflict we know while cave says it's moving more closely and on the encircle towns of denouncing ambuhl gallants at least three people have lost their lives in renewed army attacks on the outskirts of danny and a market and several apartment blocks were pounded by shells in the main square it's thought a nineteen year old man and an elderly woman are among the victims a man who have now been left homeless as

a result of the latest barmen the conflict has led tens of thousands across eastern ukraine to flee or even often a followed some of those leaving their homes in the city of danske. but in teenagers alone in her doll compartment in the guns packing they have been nobody to city in most of the city for almost two weeks now and the shelling continues. but india has already sent her daughter and her ground there to family friends in the russia they didn't see each other for a month we'll meet her when she's getting ready to follow them kompany her all the way to the border. so when you live just stop for us we wake up stand in the bread line for two hours then get a water and they have a kook a meal to eat and the same thing happens every day at this time was said in line we can only sing to the knees on the radio but in tina's husband was due to come back

from a trip to the country house the smalling but he's still not back. the phones are down and she has no way of knowing what's delayed him. but with daily bombings she can't help but be worried when monday says any of the there is no connection so i don't even know what happened to him maybe he went to visit his brother. but internet puts in her girls winter clothes and finishes packing she leaves her home with six bags and a very heavy heart zinaida from the guns krege and has cancer her home was shelled twice but she tries to remain buoyant but even her optimism was not enough to do with what she saw that day that convinced her she can stay in the ganske bush. i was at a bus stop and then i decided to leave for some reason as soon as i left the bus stop a shell exploded right behind me five people died one man had his head blown off

and a woman lost her leg took me three days to get over it she says making the decision to leave was not an easy one but it was a very quick one. it's not about the fear of death but more of outright panic was always going on which was this for their peaceful people here zenaida leaves and just like many others hopes to come back but she fears that she would never be able to do so. well we talked as he needed but in tina reunited with her husband and trade public transportation is sporadic at best and he missed his bus with no way to call home it's less than sixty kilometers from lugansk to the border but these journey might seem endless to those forced to flee. already in russia it's a mixture of pain and despair and who is these people turning to did. so

neither valentino and her husband will spend some time in this refugee camp at the russian ukrainian border until they manage to get to their final destinations joining thousands of others who have fled eastern ukraine living their lives and homes behind them they do not know what tomorrow holds in store but at least they say their war is now behind them. in ukraine and russia. and this is the graphic video we have received from near to where up to fifteen ukrainian soldiers were reportedly killed after their bus was attacked by local resistance fighters some media suggest those on the vehicle were fighters from the radical right sector group it saw the boss mistakenly arrived at an anti-government checkpoint after being sent to the wrong location. journalists around the world have voiced their anger over the disappearance of

a russian photographer in ukraine a thirty three year old understand in has been missing for more than a week rights groups are joining the efforts to get him released. the committee to protect journalists says that if you cringe authorities are holding him they should release him immediately amnesty international is also on the alert stressing that journalists should face any restrictions while doing their work and here's a statement from reporters from the reporters committee and it says media workers must be free to cover all controversies without being penalized for doing their jobs and here's some most acclaimed work he is now is known for always holding his camera even in the most of your conditions his latest pictures were taken in the eastern ukraine where he was documenting the horrors of war stan and also worked in kenya earlier this year capturing the most dramatic moments of the february cool while we have put out an album off his work for you in our website

our team. russia's humanitarian aid is just hours away from arriving at the border with ukraine the three kilometer long convoy set off from the moscow region on a tuesday the trucks are carrying power generators hundreds of tons of products baby food water medical supplies and sleeping bags however earlier today ukraine's interior minister said the convoy won't be allowed into the country making his points with a pretty harsh post on his facebook page that's despite russia saying the mission is being fully coordinated with key of the red cross who is supervising the mission has also confirmed it's received a detailed list of the eight saying they will handle its distribution. we will take charge of this consignment once it is in ukraine and we will independent to be distributed to the people who most need it. this coming up and in such

a situation on less all parties concerned are in the green went with how things are going to be done we don't function with on the goats where we don't function with any kind of protection through weapons we function with the protection through the agreement of those who have to go on to tell us that yes we accept your mission we accept your transport and we will make sure that you're safe. i mean the tit for tat sanctions over ukraine that you use reportedly trying to talk lead america out of closer cooperation with russia we'll bring you the latest from the front lines of the trade war after the break distinctness. but you got a lot of sneering and negative press for your engagements here in russia especially for your public appearances with food and even though they weren't explicitly

political you were just supporting sports. certain people's regime has become very adept at is controlling the media for example right here c.n.n. do i think c.n.n. is you know completely telling it like it is no i think they have an agenda i think through jim is is bought and paid for. how do you have any reality radiation is still there it's weak and it is killing our children they aren't dying also hard conditions asked no leukaemia but feel floridians are still hiding the truth for most still and i don't know why don't they have children on their own because you heard so much to know that two counts protect our children to.

welcome back you're watching our future national life from moscow while there are dark days i had for finland economists say the country is heading for years of recession the tit for tat sanctions with russia are hitting the nordic country hard and it could take a decade to recover looks at how the trade war is being fought. for the past few months we've definitely been witnessing a rising tensions between russia and the west but what's happening now is already being described by many as a full blown trade war first in late july the e.u. slapped russia i would say start getting a whole sectors of its economy for major banks were hit and one airline was completely grounded but then russia announced counter measures banning the import of billions of euros worth of fruit vegetables meat dairy and other products european producers are the worst hit and brussels has to compensate the losses the problem is the size of its emergency fund is around four hundred million euros

while the estimated damage may reach five billion when you know we are going to lose one point three million euros but we're relatively small business imagine the other big firms such as like to lease which send several trucks a week is going to. it will take two or three months to collect our remaining crop and we don't know what will happen if no one buys it. now we're in a bad economic situation more than two hundred families have been destroyed we will have damage in excess of eight hundred fifty thousand your rules if nothing is changed we are in a desperate situation next to russia starts negotiations with latin america specifically ecuador brazil chile and argentina to meet the new eight percent shortfall in imports according to the financial times the e.u. may start trying to talk some of these states out of upping trade with russia perhaps promising to open its market to their products but here is the ecuadorian embassador to russia's thoughts on this i think the current situation creates great

opportunities for ecuador but it would have been unwise to pass up such a chance to diversify and expand our trading capabilities especially having received an offer to become a privileged partner with russia. some business analysts in the west have now started wondering how wise was it to start playing this game of tit for tat sanctions the. sanctions will they really work and we don't think they will and we've all been working in the russian market probably now for the last twenty years and times have always been difficult to do russia business in russia but i don't think the sanctions will really help and we just wanted to sort of voice that could well be job losses coming along we heard that j.c. big. reported that he potentially could lose. orders as a result of the sanctions and as a result of that would lose jobs over here watching this economic battle swing back and forth like a pendulum one is reminded of newton's famous law every action has an equal and

opposite reaction which just will be the last to retaliate is very hard to predict right now well i asked earlier a spokesperson of the european commission peter stana about whether the e.u. is really pressuring latin american countries not to up their trade with russia in the wake of moscow's foot in barga. or explaining the situation how the situation came let's say they were the reasons for the situation and we are basically explaining them it's our view that it's not too beneficial even for them to try to benefit from the current circumstances but in the end as i said you know looking at is that again you are pressuring them no we are not pressuring anyone b.c. is not human nature how do you with this really are saying to our partners these are all reasons what you do you see your decision but you should be very bold thinking about our values about our people and about the current situation. while hundreds of migrants try to jump to a better life over

a fence of the border between morocco and the autonomy spanish city of millions they used handmade wooden ladders and stormed the barrier in waves hurling rocks at riot police most were forced back but the dozens that god will now be assessed for asylum or deportation some were taken to hospital with severe had injuries. the surge is the largest and month spain is not the only country though were african migrants are trying to make their way into europe to see jobs and shelter this week violent clashes broke out in a frenzy as eritreans and sudanese citizens tried getting to britain through the northern port of kut they african migrants also risked their lives crossing the minister anian to reach italy southern coast and islands boats carrying refugees are often overloaded and manny capsized at least eight hundred people have drowned this year alone the un's refugee agency says the influx in europe through the

mediterranean is already sixty percent higher than last year and more than seventy five thousand try to get into italy greece spain and mull to during the first half of this year. the subjects' and sore point for manny europeans but a british thing tank says that though immigration is having a positive effect on the economy it will strain ukase infrastructure in the long run we take a closer look at that claim on our website. also at r.t. dot com the scientists create an artificial tissue similar in structure to a rat's brain that they say could eventually help treat human cognitive disorders. right to see. first rate. and i think the church. on our reporters with their. instrument.

to be in the. public fury over the killing of an unarmed black teenager by a policeman spilled into a third night of violence in the us state of missouri a woman who was one did in a drive by shooting while in a separate incident a police officer opened fire on a the alleged attacker locals are demanding justice for michael brown's killing but officials still refuse to release the name of the officer who gun them down in the street at close range. gun sales have skyrocketed in the area of the violence and some shop owners report they are now dishing out four times as many weapons as before they say people are apparently coming in to arm themselves against trigger happy police officers like the one who shot dead michael brown. but he always sell stuff guns every day but the last two days

people have never really thought about sense of urgency to go out and buy firearms see the crime happening very close to their home so they're really intent. about coming out and getting firearms to defend themselves. six people have been killed in gaza after in gaza after a missile went off during hams to dismantle it and associated press journalist and he's translator are among the dead the incident happened in the town of beit lahiya in the north of gaza comes just hours before and through to a cease fire agreement between israel and hamas expires the threat of renewed violence is looming no solution found after negotiations in cairo between the sides the war has been the bloodiest in years killing almost two thousand palestinians and sixty seven israelis. the spread of a bowl and a west africa has led the world health organization to say it's ok to use untested

drugs on victims the virus has now killed over a thousand people since march one persons died in europe a spanish priest repatriated this week after testing positive in liberia a bowler researcher dr peter walsh says a lot of cases need to be treated with experimental vaccine before it can be considered effective. the bottom line is that there's just not a market in developed countries for for drug vaccines and treatments because the disease does not occur in europe or the united states all the money that's been spent on developing vaccines and treatments has really become from the defense fund that the u.s. military in particular is worried that somebody will try to use this is a weapon and therefore they're trying to develop countermeasures to really get enough data to tell where the drugs are effective in humans you need tens of people to be treated at least just by treating two or three people you're not really going to be able to tell whether it was really affected in africa you need to just follow the bare nursery practices you know contact with somebody who shows the symptoms you wear the full suit gold goggles respirator etc there's

a lot of highs you procedures involving using soap and believe to disinfect yourself the difference between a developed country and these african countries these african countries just don't have the capacity to maintain all the protocols necessary particular the high heat they don't have air conditioning you know they don't have regular power and so the odds that this happens the spreads in the europe or russia or somewhere else are very very very low. and that our breaking news story regional train has been derailed by a landslide in a mountainous region in switzerland on the line between the city off shore and there is sort of sam or its police have classified the accident as a serious and said that many people have been injured however they gave no further details pictures of the accident have already gone viral as you can see one of the carriages is hanging over the edge of the ravine the rescue and evacuation work is underway and of course we'll be bringing you the very latest as we get it now
