which of the reach of. your chewed into the weekly here in r.t. international wrap up of the top stories from the past seven days and right up to the moment developments as well my names you know neil welcome our top story the first batch of russian trucks carrying humanitarian aid has reached the border with ukraine the convoy carrying two thousand tons of supplies spent three days waiting express started but the humanitarian nature of the cargo and went to see the contents for herself. these sixteen tracks from the russian humanitarian convoy other first to reach the russian ukrainian border they are now parked here literally meters away from donetsk is right in a border checkpoint and you know today the cargo these trucks are carrying has only

been inspected by the representatives of the international red cross and now we're going to do the same i'm going to pick up the truck and mr lee is going to open it for us. a. little three to see here is the truck is on. it's about the last. reason we're simply carrying it. wasn't bomb. book wheat it's buckwheat and the bags are just in case anyone suspects it's guns and you know something else like weapons of mass destruction. denise tells me that each bag is fifty kilograms and the route one hundred sixty bags here which means a total. eight tongs and this is he tells me the maximum or

what they struck in carry well these trucks are now ready to cross the border to deliver its humanitarian cargo to those in eastern ukraine who are in desperate need the driver as we have been able to speak to here told me that there will be two more inspections at the checkpoint from the russian and from the ukrainian side and after that security will be the major challenge for these tracks as the convoy is supposed to travel through regions in eastern ukraine where clashes are still continuing resolution r.-t. russian border. as the trucks with idly on the border the situation of people in eastern ukraine becomes increasingly desperate let's listen to what the residents themselves sourcing. with them yes but generally. and i didn't buy into it today at the slot that this town moved up a false night out. i see just as many below transcona me i'm not going to pull my

eyes to meet you when you have yet to meet a steely here's a video of the just the us open the coke that gets us of both of us going to say that the new coke so far and you'll serve it to the state i know it's been in the atmosphere. not just the below economical but it's not the little problem on the list but you just read and you can look at nature and you'll get both history did he change i'm going to need to do is can i think you know full well for your critique from this newsgroup if it is good but if we don't model the goal goes usually to get the most beautiful usually the. ukraine has admitted one of it's a tough chance has been shot on by antigovernment fighters near the games while anti-government forces say they managed to bring dawn to more incessant shelling by

the ukrainian army is continuing. local self-defense forces claim even bullish that missiles have been used against the city parts of a missile were found in one district that was similar to missiles previously used internet it's suggested the military is using soviet era weapons that were left in ukraine after the union collapsed. ok let's take a look now at what they're kip above in terms of war for the missiles moxon membranes is up to one hundred twenty kilometers an hour distance it's able to hit targets with an accuracy of one hundred meters there are various types of warheads available for the system including chemical and nuclear even with a conventional payload it's able to inflict significant destruction destroying an entire heist with these honest former u.k.

army officer charles hsu bridge to list the people of eastern ukraine face many other dangers to what if this video is genuine and should be said that so far there's nothing to suggest that it isn't then indeed it does show many of the characteristics one would associate with the use of white phosphorus or very similar incendiary in particular you've got. large numbers of small particles of very brightly. material that incendiary fact is particularly severe against buildings and particularly against people. if indeed that's what's happening and being used because white phosphorus is a potent incendiary it burns through to the bone and can't be put out with water a second round of talks to resolve the ukrainian crisis is underway in berlin after two months i.e. it is the foreign ministers of germany france ukraine and russia giving direct talks another try in berlin for us is peter all over following the meeting. after

the sanctions after threats they are back at the table trying to hammer out some kind of a framework for peace in eastern ukraine now just before the negotiations got underway the german foreign minister from told to steinmeyer did give a few brief comments to journalists before going in he talked about the need for more of these talks the need for a diplomatic solution to be found that every option should be made available to avoid potential direct military clashes between ukraine and russia he also spoke about the dayak humanitarian crisis unfolding on the ground in eastern ukraine the need for humanitarian aid to reach those people but he did warn against anybody getting their hopes up too much he said this it was very unrealistic to think that the talks ongoing right now would bring about any concrete any concrete framework towards finding a peaceful solution but that these are as we heard from him in the past steps that

need to be taken the diplomatic solution has to be found so those talks are ongoing right now as it develops anything comes out of there of course we'll bring it to you here on r.t. spain has become the leave this country to join a global plea for missing russian photojournalist i understand in russia the u.n. and international human rights groups are calling for his immediate release backed up by a wave of support on social media using the hash tag group. now here you can see some of his work stand in is a famous journalist who's covered the conflicts in ukraine syria and gals the thirty three year old disappeared in eastern ukraine almost two weeks ago and since then kiev has both confirmed undenied holding him c.n.n. was working outside the nats reporting on kiev's crackdown on anti-government fighters when connection with him was last. living on the hour an hour

curfew imposed in the us town of ferguson missouri has failed to stop people demanding justice for an unarmed teenager shot by a police officer it's been rocked by protests for almost a week and to see a church in the reports from ferguson. i'm right now we're at a peaceful unity rally where hundreds of people have gathered yet again to voice their outrage about the lack of progress when it comes to more details being released about this killing a sunday morning a curfew was imposed over the town of ferguson where from midnight to five am residents were not allowed to come onto the streets dozens of military clad military gear clad police officers were prepared to take action if people broke this curfew and in fact this did occur about twenty minutes into the curfew several dozen people ran into the streets this led to clashes between protesters and police where tear gas we do know that seven people were arrested throughout the night and at least one person was shot it's not unclear whether that person was

a protester or not and this person remains in critical condition as we speak we spoke to some of the protesters last night take a listen. to you know come a little closer to the issue. where they started shooting to guess is you know the crowd going to disperse to really we don't agree with the kurds but we don't know when the power the fight. just be in the streets tomorrow of course we don't expect the tensions here on the ground to die down any time soon as this community is quite set on getting all the answers they deserve for more on the story let's now go to our report that covers the events of the last week. a community filled with rage sorrow and grief is demanding justice for august in missouri is a small town with twenty thousand residents. many of them took to the streets after a black teenager was shot dead by a police officer. it's a loss that she can the community to its core this is no reason the young man

should be right. thousands of protestors only. right now. rioting and looting has also broken out which most residents criticize but tolerate . saddam hussein is the right thing to do but at same time there was a for that would have made headline news the police have hit back and hard. to believe and leak the militarized police force has resorted to firing rubber bullets and other heavy handed tactics to quell the unrest very narrow were before we were b. it's a guess they got sort of quite a while where they were shooting them and so the catholics and we were in the streets so why you shouldn't and so the complex this key is the excessive use of force by police has riled up protesters even more and triggered strong criticism it defies everything. my fellow marines and i fought for when we were defending the constitution in iraq and afghanistan the forceful response was followed by curbs

put on civilian freedom school the other night a flight ban over ferguson was imposed by the federal aviation administration on tuesday that was followed by a state of emergency and curfew on saturday as officials struggled to figure out how to handle the situation the identity of the officer responsible for the killing a white twenty eight year old darren wilson was kept under wraps for almost a week it was made public along with footage that allegedly shows michael brown robbing a store on the day of his death the local community reacted with anger they released a name this video. michael brown at the same time a kind of deflect the fact that he was murdered but this kind of what it feels like they were trying to do the video just shoot him nine times. eat. the teen death here in ferguson has sparked broad motion but for locals it's just the most recent injustice they've suffered they say the african-american community has been targeted by the police force for years if not decades and not just here

but all across the country understand and recognize that we're dealing with apartheid in america it's not just what happened to mike brown it's happening to all of our children this is systematic racism. d.d.l. lotta loud and destroying and while these people hope for a fair punishment for the officer behind brown's death real social change is what they want in the long run it's time for us to get a good large jump start but that looks like a distant goal as people here work out how to come to terms with their anger and their grief is this it you're going to ferguson missouri. fury over the killing of the on armed teenager spread to some ninety cities across the u.s. from washington to los angeles even across the ocean in the u.k. demonstrators have gathered outside the u.s. embassy expressing solidarity with michael braun and his family protesters claim the police aggression against ferguson demonstrators is of proportion just last

night five armored vehicles were deployed images from one of the rally show an officer wearing some very serious combat gear his appointment includes a military have met and tactical goggles his weapon of choice plus possibly a grenade or a tear gas launcher with an advanced sight on his hip two knives as well some experts believe civilians are being treated like and the mes of war. you know this is a situation that repeats itself in all sorts of african-american communities across the united states that are policed as though they were occupied territory by highly militarized i would say u.s. troops but local police who are equipped as though they were occupying afghanistan or iraq a number of studies show that what you put on the gear is the police when you're training you start actually like a military unit like you're in a patrol and unfortunately what happens is the psychology changes in

a lot of these local policemen when they're approaching a house for a swat team or a it's like they're moving it all out either. approaching fifteen minutes into the hour lots more news coming up after this short break. i'm marinating in the financial world. dr who seems to go home and cannot stop because it is very lonely take no demand for credit not going to get any economic benefit in life there are and there are but. i. think.

those who want to get involved to stop isis in iraq are allied with isis in syria and we still should be doing everything we can to support the free syrian opposition who will continue to provide military assistance and advice to the iraqi government and kurdish forces as they battle these terrorists. this is a party international walking by kurdish forces supported by us or it strikes have reportedly retaken a strategic dam in iraq thing fighters of the islamic state turk rip the vital facility supplies water and the electricity to the north of the country and the joint operation comes after the e.u. greenlit the sending of weapons to the kurds are. brought us this report.

militants of the islamic state have been seizing control of vast swathes of iraq for months now but when they approached its kurdish region the u.s. took action this is a humanitarian issue of great consequence for all the world the militants threat not just the people of the kurdish region but also its oil production since the u.s. invasion in two thousand and three iraq's kurdistan has seen a boom in energy production us energy giants exxon mobil and chevron are among the many oil and gas for arms large and small now drilling there seems that the fact that ought american oil companies operating in the kurdish region in the north of iraq had some weight and it was one of the main considerations that the obama administration. took wide thinking about the engagement of turkey in

iraq this month the semi autonomy as region has shown to be friendly to the u.s. and to u.s. business but the oil rich kurdistan has long sought to break away from iraq it has now moved to sell crude independently from bogged down arguing that the central government doesn't give the region its fair share of oil revenue and move the onslaught of the islamic state in the political turmoil in baghdad many kurds see an opportunity to finally carve out a homeland by exclusively supporting the kurdish region washington may fuel their cause that the kurdish region is functional the way we would like to see it and it is tolerant of other sex and other religion in a way that we would like to see elsewhere so we do think that it's important to make sure that that space is protected the obama administration likes the way kurdistan functions but doesn't like the way iraq as a whole functions the obama administration denies that it gave up on the central

government in baghdad moving to directly part. u.s. interests with humanitarian situation so dire and the threat posed by the islamic state still imminent america's increased involvement may not have much opposition now even if the eventual outcome will be the breakup of iraq in washington i'm going to check out our team. american weapons flooded the region almost every side of the conflict including the kurds have in one way or another been armed by washington the u.s. has been openly sending legally had to syrian government fighters some of them who defected from more moderate factions to be slumming stake taking weapons with them almost nine billion dollars worth of arms were sent to iraq but some of them again were captured by the extremists as the country's army fled in an exclusive interview to r.t. former u.s. congressman and presidential candidate ron paul spoke about the prospects for america's latest moves in iraq he told us the u.s. risk sinking deeper into conflict on this it leaves the iraqis to deal with the

islamic state on the road i'm surprised that they haven't retaliate a little bit better but one of the reasons why they haven't done very well is that i says ended up getting a lot of weapons from us and if they captured weapons they've got a modest syria and i'm sure there are some they came from libya so they're well armed so we haven't done the kurds any favor whatsoever i think the policy that we should follow is one designed to allow the iraqis to solve all their problems and stay out of this let them deal with it because we've tried for a long time we've lost a lot of lives spent a lot of money and we've allowed a mess to develop and there's nothing about amassing chaos there and in a way were partially responsible for the. ron paul speaking earlier in the week now we've got more stories for you on our web site including you might use it but you'd better not trust it implicitly like the reports from

a conference held about the wiki p.d.n. earths the murky side of the world's most popular encyclopedia of website. also their creative smuggling spanish authorities are in for a shock when they find two kilos of cocaine hidden in a woman's breast implants find out how she went to buy tickets on r t dot com. the european union is threatening more measures against russia saying the crisis in ukraine is being found by moscow more than it's urging countries iran the world to respect europe's economic sanctions against russia however inside europe the unity appears to be fracturing or teeth you can offer ports 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 whole sectors of its economy four 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 i'm not so the us is going to affect the schools which it will take two or three months to collect our remaining orange and we don't know what will happen if no one buys it. now we're in a bad. situation more than two hundred families have been destroyed we will have damage in excess of eight hundred fifty thousand your rules of nothing's 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. me start trying to talk some of the 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 russian 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 a school be the last to retaliate is very hard to predict right now. statement by statement e.u. leaders are gradually turning against sanctions slovakia's prime minister criticize them as a quote meaningless gesture that would threaten economic growth in e.u. member states austria's agriculture minister confirm the industry has already lost some six million dollars as a result of russia's tit for tot food ban while the czech leader claimed their strict sins themselves are ineffective and could only lead to a spiral of worsening relations that the chief nothing. on top of those the leaders

of hungry in finland have also changed their tune motivated by a potentially huge losses the face western agriculture company farmers face billions of dollars in losses from russia's food sanctions on its europeans who do stand to lose the most the e.u. is already brittle economy is not facing recession over the trade war with russia and experts say brussels is desperate to avoid landing into yet another crisis. more headlines for run the world in brief pro muslim brotherhood demonstrators have lit fires in the streets of egypt capital cairo as the call for the president mohamed morsi to be reinstated angry residents responded with guns on fire crackers several people were reportedly wounded in the violence that ended only when security forces intervened. and you center for ebola patients has been attacked and looted by a crowd in liberia claiming the current epidemic is a hoax seventeen patients reportedly fled with the mob increasing the risk the

can distort reality in the minds of kids and one swedish journalist in something very unusual to step his kids back into the real world journalist karl magnus held grandson seemed almost addicted to the legendary military first person shooter game call of duty so since they like killing people online with guns he decided to take them to the gaza strip to show them what war is all about mr helder and brought his boys to a refugee camp where they could see injured kids just like themselves getting their wounds to stop they got to see all the blood and tears apparently this in your face method of parenting works and his children have stopped their on line war this strategy might sound a little extreme and we're all very expensive i can't afford to fly my family to israel to prove a point but sometimes we all the to be smacked in the face with reality as a man there's something attractive about roman conquests our ranks of musket fire and a pulley on a conflict those images are nice but the reality is blood and death and if more kids could have the same experience as a helper and family well we might have less war mongers around but that's just my
