week shells hit apartment buildings hospitals un churches reports. there have been massive multiple attacks in neighborhoods and residential areas here in donetsk overnight saturday there was almost a continuous stream of shelling so much so that i and other colleagues here as well as local people i know would constantly missing each other to make sure that we were ok the local press here is reporting that the ukrainian army has received an order to clear the city of local militia by independence day which is today now we're also receiving reports that in the past twenty four hours the anti-government fighters have retaliated against the advancing ukrainian military and they've managed to isolate two units of the ukrainian army this comes as the ukrainian army evonne says underneath it we do know that they are trying to completely encircled the city so the situation is escalating almost by the minute neighboring lugansk

has also suffered in turn shelling on numerous casualties this week locals there say no place is safe with bombs landing on residential areas every day artie's maria from national reports from the embattled city. the devastation of we worried shelling we were here last fall days ago and we've returned to find lugansk bearing the scars of sustained attack kiev is calling this a full on assault the final stage of its military operation and the fact it's having the locals is all too clear every day residential areas of the city of like gonski being targeted fortunately when this five story apartment building was hit no word was heard by the time had happened almost all the residents have already fled minutes later we come across two of the handful of people still living here and they're clearly terrified.

that the. many of those still here high the elderly hold to seek to leave. and like elenor they're forced to take shelter in their basements when the shelling begins they don't realize the good you look out at me mohammad got a chilling look at the national media i don't know what that will eventually they're you bodily i have the whole neck across the globe then your point of going out the real fear for the obama i don't know but being yelled at don't know but i'm hanging in the boat but it really was the this is the scene in the ganske central market it was heat on monday but the smell of burning still hangs heavy in the air and steam in the line of fire this is a ghost city market and mon cher moved here because it was.

we rushed to the nearest bomb shelter and other basement. candles can still be found in the shops and they've become crucial in a city without electricity. just about to start moving our piece to have her. show just miserable from us the near constant bombardment is taking its toll on locals without. knowing the river. big story tells us she has little choice but to state what you usually only a couple. never. knew could be thousands of refugees have poured out of the ganske to escape the recent shelling and even if this turns out to be the final assault on the city as the government in kiev claims the effects of the sustained fighting will be felt by civilians here

for many years to come. r.t. iligan ski crane. after weeks deprived of food and water a russian humanitarian aid convoy finally reached desperate ukrainians who lined up to get basic essentials the aid convoy is now back in russia after unloading tons of food medicine and water in less than twenty four hours two hundred eighty trucks made their way through war torn eastern ukraine after being stalled at the border for over a week here in washington called it a violation of the nation's sovereignty and threaten russia with consequences un humanitarian chief valerie amos told r.t. aid efforts should not be politicized. what i think is important in terms of the humanitarian aspects of this is that those aspects are not politicized one of the important things about humanitarian work is that it's independent it's neutral it's

about bringing aid to people in desperate need i regret that this whole issue of the convoy became highly politicized and i hope that that does not happen again . but despite the humanitarian mission the west quickly suggested the aid column was a russian invasion hysteria was found by headlines such as the comparing the convoy to a trojan horse or artillery units we asked political analyst the voice of mileage and investigative journalist neil clark about those accusations. the hypocrisy here is really off the scale isn't it because it seems ok for the western powers to bomb sovereign states for humanitarian reasons but it's not ok for russia the same did a humanitarian aid convoy if russia did invade ukraine we know about it with the way the ukraine is we're not going to allow this convoy is pretty clear they're going to find any excuse to stop it from going through and as they were doing this people are being killed and dying in the east of ukraine and that really is

outrageous the double standards here this is the pinnacle of hypocrisy there it's clear that there is no invasion it's clear that the convoy is purely humanitarian and it's clear that the arrival of the convoy has a point to underscore to the rest of the world that there is no invasion that the only people suffering here are the peaceful people in eastern ukraine that their own government is trying to murder and that's a problem and so they need to divert attention from this to some sort of hypocritical talk of russian invasion i doubt there would be a european aid coming into that region for them people in donetsk and lugansk there's subhumans they're like the prime minister yes they're not considering these people people they're considering them rebels aggressors russians or whatever so they're not going to help them even though by their own rhetoric and by their own values they should but i don't expect that to happen at all. well it's not in ukraine's east as being left to deal with the consequences of the fighting this is

the western ukrainian city of laval where eleven soldiers were buried on she was a day early died in action in the country's east family and friends gathered to pay that last respects of the coffins were carried to the sound of the national anthem . the international red cross has joined the search for andre stan and i russian photojournalists who disappeared in ukraine almost three weeks ago despite an international outcry his whereabouts remain unknown and kiev insists there's no information the un the e.u. various rights groups and journalists around the globe are all demanding he have secure his release thirty three year old stand in his work for many international news organizations such as reuters and the associated press his mother hope to see her son's. name in. the beginning you'll sit down with a good mom will be schools or school. to get the most to do with it in your book able to look the way she is it could be. it appears

to be. simplistic. now the new several thousand people have gathered in new york to protest against police violence in the u.s. . i really i. i also joined calls for justice over the killing of unarmed teenager michael brown in the town of ferguson the demonstrators accuse the police of being criminals after a heavy handed response to peaceful protests is more important i reports on how brown's killing has caused a public uproar in america. unrest driven by anger over michael brown's death carried on for a second week demonstrators on the streets of ferguson once again met with tear gas rubber bullets and flash grenades freedom of the press was also under threat as our

own correspondent was engulfed in a cloud of tear gas right now you can see behind me if you look they're firing this is either tear gas to all our small cannons that have also been used throughout these night so i will wait let's go let's go to the. sound guys here gets right to the states affected saying oh my god i did other reporters faced death threats from police. in the seat louis city the first amendment was confined to a media pan and at least six journalist were arrested for attempting to do their job captain john said what's the reason for ordering the press out what's really bothering right about the role of race is that your president had no right to take out iran's leader take my word by word to revive the beyond that i don't want. to get i do exactly question i just asked a question to try to lay my photos was circling in

a walking with very little saw code for all the hotels photos and boats are the officer in charge decided that's going to be good enough he decided that he got handcuffed the will grow up to. roughly two hundred ten people have reportedly been . since the august tenth protest began including nineteen year old holocaust survivor hedy epstein police has and tried to incite the people in ferguson are the people that come to the demonstrations. so if they become minor more violent then the police will become even more violent that will be their excuse criticism surrounding heavy handed police tactics deepened wednesday when a few miles from ferguson another black man who allegedly shoplifted from a store was shot dead by white police officers powell was brandishing a knife but instead of using a taser or other nonfatal methods cops fired nine shots into the twenty five year

old the militarization of america's law enforcement has made front page news around the world critics say arming local cops with war weapons fuels a more aggressive type of policing that lacks accountability america has a lot of issues it has a lot of problems it goes around the world preaching morality but the ugly images of america's military police and beating people in the streets and riot. troops and soldiers in the military on its own citizens has woken the world up that america speaks with. by the end of the week police clashes and protests decreased significantly as temperatures in ferguson have around thirty seven degrees celsius meanwhile the st louis grand jury has already begun hearing evidence to determine if ferguson officer darren wilson should be charged with the death of michael brown a decision is expected in october but the makeup of the jury may give night a wave of backlash you see nine white people and only three black people were

chosen as jurors the on even representation may spark a new feeling of injustice causing the public to accuse the process of being bias. artie ferguson. well the police in ferguson have been equipped with some heavy duty military equipment have a look at exactly what they've got first of all they have gas masks and tear gas and they've also got military grade weapons they also have bulletproof vest and stun grenades and that's not including the additional handguns finally forces backed up with heavily armored vehicles fit for crowd dispersal former police captain ray lewis says it's the actions of offices that led to the violence in the town. the fact that the police chief jackson took several days to come out with any information and identifying the officer is outrageous when something like this happens that information has to be given to the

public as quickly as possible when he came out with the information about who the officer was what he did was he made michael brown look like a thief in the community saw that exactly for what it was and they were outraged now after that they bring in the military cops. dressed individuals as occupying officers their armored from head to toe and when you bring when you dress officers like an occupying army they act like an occupying army and we all know what happens in other countries that we have occupied atrocities are committed. when michael brown's death is heated the debate over the use of lethal force against minorities in america a number of young black men have died at the hands of police this year they say police officer shot down try how milton ten times during a struggle in a park in july aragon and died on the ground after an officer used

accounts to send out centrally written updates thousands of already downloaded the sample occasion released simultaneously their messages swamp social media it gives isis a far larger online reach than their own accounts would otherwise allow not only images of beheadings that militants distribute through social media but also skillfully edited promo video showing their soft side in this one jihad is are handing out ice cream to kids another video shows an islamic state militant visiting his fellow fighters in hospital with an encouraging message kids. of the best medium for them to meet all the living the usual in few years these people are able to carry arms and they will be ordered he. will remain to do with this violent pursuit of their goal isis is also working to recruit young people all over the world bragging about their advances leaflets like these are spread through

social media sometimes their call for martyrdom comes with the knowledge to popular video games like call of duty some of the images look like postcards with his story gear appeals sites in the background jihadi sympathizers or even calling for people to join the islamic state on street the. it's of london. are using. dollar tree in terms of advertisement very well islamic state finders post photos of their day to day life on social media my first time writes one british jihadi underneath a facebook photograph of his bloody tent apparently after killing someone first of many writes a friend after images with severed heads some post pictures of their cats. state is even promoting a hipster variation of a jihadi this is a law school graduate from cairo who before joining the isis was apparently preoccupied with his body having posted a series of photos in a gym their recruitment propaganda targets young people those who use modern

gadgets who play video games and watch hollywood movies and those who are perhaps going through an identity crisis of some sort in this self promotion the islamic state has gone farther than any other jihad is group in washington i'm going to check on r.t. . or the islamic state is considered too violent even by al qaeda but even these brutal killers have their achilles heel this time it seems in the form of female kurdish soldiers there on the track of the islamists looking to avenge the thousands of women captured and executed by the islamic state and for the jihad is the female finds is pose a very specific threat they believe that if you are killed by a woman there's no place in heaven for you this is video of some of the volunteers joining the only female units they train with and fight alongside male fighters. now the threat of islamic state is spreading far beyond europe and the middle east

indonesia inflates so being put on alert in the world's largest british temple after a threat made by jihadists all the details are on our website. also there on our to dot com we've got the best pictures from a color run in sweden weapons disciplines were showered with bright powder throughout the race. russia's block on importing most european food in response to western sanctions has triggered anger across the e.u. . in spain farmers tipped out crates of fruit and bernstein flags producers there are bracing for a sharp drop in prices due to the recently imposed russian embargo trade unions say this will also mean significant job losses the concern is shared by farmers not only in spain was an aid to funnel emergency cash to its fruit and vegetable producers. which i think will put some through the sanctions people are very

pessimistic know nobody explains to farmers what's happening they don't know what the future will hold right now we have no other market to send produce to apart from the russian one i really disagree with the use decision to impose these sanctions on russia it was a big mistake because we never had any problems with russia. listen we're broke we've come to a dead end nobody cares about us except called nobody cares how much money we need how are we going to survive. or they here is planning to cushion the blow with up to one hundred twenty five million euros in compensation to producers but the numbers show that this is only a drop in the ocean as the cost to the worst hit nations is expected to be nine times more than the aid that is on offer. now after spending more than two years holed up inside the ecuadorian embassy in london this week wiki leaks editor julian assange arms made a surprise announcement. but.

the. british authorities are threatening to extradited to sweden the moment he steps outside the embassy is wanted there an accusation of sexual assault in the stands denies any wrongdoing so why would he decide to leave now according to his associates to a new law that bans extradition without charges. what's happened here which hasn't been widely reported but it's certainly important is that the law is changed regarding the european arrest warrant laws changed in the sense that no one no one now in britain can be extradited against their will to a country without being charged and of course as everybody knows what's significant about julian of songes difficulty is that he's never been charged i could. leave the embassy as soon as the police presence here is called off in the u.k. authorities decide to give him a passes to ecuador. with the foreseeable plies to according to international

agreements that they have signed other world news in brief now. and israeli airstrike has leveled a twelve story apartment building in gaza no casualties have been reported and civilians were warned prior to the strike the attack comes in response to continuing rocket and mortar fire from gaza in gyptian officials are calling for a trace but israel refuses any dialogue until hamas stops firing rockets. the aviation industry has been put on red alert over an icelandic volcano part of the country's aspace has been closed as the volcano is expected to spew large amounts of ash the nation's airports are currently operating as normal back in two thousand and ten the eruption of another volcano in iceland caused huge disruptions to european flights. and it made life hard for news presenters who got their tongues in a twist trying to pronounce the volcano's name. cal. i

asked the. agent i could do a just fill out a cool article clearly wanted neat that they will look at. your good bill or whether or not we should be are bracing ourselves for another travel nightmare is still unclear but there's good news for our presenters on travelers alike because iceland has already issued for non-separation guide for the latest eruption. but. stay with us on r.t. international back in just over half an hour's time. trust me i like video games you could tell from my physique but they like all media can distort reality in the minds of kids and once we journalist it's something very

unusual to step his kids back into the real world journalist karl magnus held in sun 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 online war this strategy might sound a little extreme and all very expensive i can't afford to fly my family to israel to prove a point but sometimes we're 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 healthy family well we might have less war mongers around but that's just my opinion.

and west into. sanctions against russia and obviously russia every tally eight and base. confrontational rhetoric goes on and on one thing about sanctions that isn't a way of solving economy and business hostage to politics is structured to invade east ukraine i mean that i don't think is the way still russia would trade to get a live stream to do that he is saying this is no easy rice were wrong but it definitely is better than complete. today and signs of progress in syria peace to. many many. square strangers.

a very good morning to you from all of us here at aussie international sushi i live in moscow just after eleven am right now. an easy truce has been reached in ukraine to open eyed talks between the president and the opposition aimed at stopping the bloodshed which is staying in the country over the last few days now in total twenty eight people have been killed in the violent clashes at least ten of those were police officers both sides are now taking captives and what is beginning to look like a full on call.
