9:03 am
at night where it's very difficult if not impossible at some points to tell where exactly is the borderline we're talking here about a border that often goes through a field a forest or even a village and i have crossed the border on several occasions and i can tell you from personal experience that there are many many parts where they simply no markings to say that now you are in the russian territory now you are in ukrainian territory at the beginning of august there was just over four hundred ukrainian troops who crossed over into russia reportedly seeking sanctuary this happened in an area in eastern ukraine which has seen the fiercest fighting between the anti-government fighters and the ukrainian military there is here constant shelling and there's also a humanitarian crisis that is unfolding we traveled with a group of government fighters to one of the worst hit cities where we stand people are and a siege and these fighters risked their lives to bring much needed supplies to the residents of the term. these men have seen some of the worst fighting in this
9:04 am
conflict but there's one thing they find even worse was trying to destroy the local population their own people basically those who survived kiev's onslaught are slowly starving for four long weeks residents of yassin ovata have been without food and water the only way in or out is surrounded by heavy artillery believes there was more this will be a. continuation we're doing everything we can so the people there have enough food we're not going to let a humanitarian crisis happen. it's now for an on the anti-government fighters to make sure cities under siege get supplies our first stop is this bread factory they've been baking this bread for the last twelve hours and a half thousand blows his mind and everybody knows that this is for humanitarian purposes the hungry people look at our bread it's perfect but it's not so pretty driving into yesterday of art or twenty kilometers outside of dinette sq where some of the fiercest fighting is taking place just like half an hour ago missiles hit
9:05 am
the next street a man was killed a woman injured yesterday they hit a central gas pipe every hour there was shooting or shelling while you were here you will hear it all. would quickly spreads that helps arrived those who haven't fled the town risk the thunder of shelling to come quickly and take what they can. already aware that she was of their village he's a moloch but the most. difficult or you know what they are going to share is it was the gloom i just was wondering tonight if thirty or more of you here still were devoted to it is the idea that you're still revealing it was well. you know. it. you.
9:06 am
know this is the circle of fields that over the years know where we all heard. the last. three days ago this bridge was still standing entire buildings have been blown up neighborhoods completely destroyed this can bother them. even. as you can see by the grates as they were specifically targeting the hospital they tried to destroy the place with children injured are being treated for that they want to create panic so unbearable. that but for now with the emergency supplies still reaching the city at least there was momentary relief for the people who refused to be driven out policy r.t. yesin of art or eastern ukraine. i'm at the war of words between russia and the west over events in ukraine ever is hoping a meeting between president vladimir putin then petro poroshenko could ease the
9:07 am
crisis the thing is it may or may not happen in belarus capital means go for talks with the e.u. even a little is all watching the gathering closely for us he joins me live now here in anything never going statements that have been made so far. well we have seen the russian and ukrainian presidents shake hands so perhaps there could be even officials signed then again we do not know yet so far we have heard the preliminary statements and when it came to russian president putin has mostly talked about the economic treatment of ukraine he said that russia will be forced to stop treatment off the neighboring country because in all the accordance with the w.t. . because of the trade association with the european union that ukraine has its having said that russian president said that russia is only for is only for strengthening economic ties with ukraine however that unfortunately is impossible at the moment and that russia also mention that russia has warned of numerous
9:08 am
occasions about the fact that once ukraine signs that trade association agreement with the e.u. it will negatively affected trade and investment climate on top of that of course russian president also mentioned the fact that it is impossible to solve the crisis in ukraine and the bloodshed that's going on in the south east of the country with powerful methods with fighting he said the diplomatic a peaceful solution is needed when it comes to the peaceful solution well we also have heard from the ukrainian president who said that he has a peace plan and he proposes that the participants of the meeting here in minsk today take it into consideration and accept it of course whether or not that will be the case we have yet to see because the one on one meeting between the russian and ukrainian presidents still hasn't taken place so that is something that everybody here in minsk isn't dissipating to happen the following events aware that you're not going to who is in minsk for us will keep you how the situation on rebels. but local adam is
9:09 am
a citizen of it believes it won't be easy for putin and poroshenko to find a common ground because of the outside factors shaping ukraine's politics. neither pushing cork has a great deal of leeway in the proceedings because all food for a military solution. and he cannot backtrack on that one with ultra losing credibility with his base particularly in the west of the country but the elephant missing from the room if you will is john kerry and victoria nuland because it is the brother family that there will be european throwing in attendance from brussels where is the real policy and the agenda for fear is being drawn up in washington d.c. it is not in the interest of moscow to prolong this conflict but at the same time the hardline from kier of supported unfortunately by some of the worst elements in
9:10 am
the country such as the right sector. and the suborder party do not bode well for a political solution if there is the readiness in the west to prompt in the direction of a political solution we indeed could have it in me. to want journalists who were detained in ukraine have been released they were a correspondent and photographer for crimea based newspaper unfortunately there's still no word on the missing photo journalist andrei standen he disappeared in ukraine three weeks ago numerous campaigns where his weenies have been held across the globe backed by calls from you when russia and international human rights organizations were pacing updates on the search for under a stand in on a website r.t.e. dot com. the u.s. will deploy its unmanned drones to patrol the syrian the skies to serve the positions
9:11 am
of islamic state militants a move was approved by president obama making it a possible precursor for airstrikes however washington's decision came without any approval from the syrian government america refuses to see us as forces as an ally in fighting the jihadists but mounting speculation suggests the u.s. will eventually have to work with syrian president it wants to eliminate the extremist threat which is damaging can reports. there is no love lost between the west and the syrian president but while their enemies today they could meet each other tomorrow top former military and counterterrorism officials say the u.s. should be prepared to start working with the government of bashar assad in order to fight the islamic state you're going to make a choice if we want to eliminate this isis we're going to have to deal with people we don't like in a similar vein the former head of the british army was quoted as saying the old saying my enemy's enemy is my friend is going to have to have some resonance with
9:12 am
our relationship with assad but those are former official speaking the current ones reject the prospect of cooperation with the syrian government the regime there the assad regime by their actions has allowed this group to flourish. the claim has raised many eyebrows given that the islamic state is hell bent on destroying the assad government and has gained momentum in the syrian civil war despite his differences with the west the mask has now says it's ready to cooperate when it comes to fighting terrorism but that any efforts must be courted made with the government. with syria is ready to cooperate and coordinate on the regional and international levels to confront terrorism in the framework of respecting the sovereignty of syria all anti terror efforts inside syria should come after coordination has been made with the syrian government in advance. well after years of trying to topple bashar assad and it's time for assad to get out of the way we
9:13 am
both agree that assad needs to go it may not be easy for the u.s. to be seen cooperate with him but while the west deliberates over going after the jihadists of these on the state in syria the issue becomes even more pressing well we're going to have to say something to the syrian government if we're going to start bombing in syria and the west may have already started helping us secretly a source told the independent that western intelligence agencies have provided the syrian government with details of the location of islamic state leaders targeted air strikes the source claims the information was passed to assad's forces by the german intelligence service which acted as an intermediary even if there's a temporary act of convenience some sharing of intelligence which is unproven i believe the united states is still looking primarily to overthrow the assad government imagine the president of the united states coming out and saying i know i said assad is the enemy number one and all that but today well we may have to
9:14 am
work together that may not be easy thing to swallow for the presidential ego but a deal and cooperation could say many lives in washington i'm going to check out party. differently here in syria now many of the members of congress of both parties who have gone to syria in recent months have. had this. phrase. which is diddy's telling people you can. still be nice to syria. the final televised debate between the yes and no cameras in the scottish independence campaign turned easy to the destiny of the country's future will be decided in mid september artie's marina kosovo was watching how the deed is fared.
9:15 am
it was very loud in the very fiery debates in which both men gave it their all but it appears the victory is in alex salmond's hands in favor of independence according to a snap poll some seventy one percent of voters thought he came out on top which is a dramatic turnaround for scotland so first minister let's not forget that last time he was challenge over issues such as the future of scotland's economy and the future of the pound and this time he came prepared to give his currency options offer in reply in fact something which he kept repeating but saying that sickened to the pound would become a step in the probably the most important revolution. now the head of the better together campaign alistair darling head back saying that that would leave scotland at the mercy of a foreign country telling then how to spend its money just like eurozone countries which have to get their budget signed off in
9:16 am
a brussels. videos you see you don't have a central bank so our financial services can exist in salt and now other topics the two clashed on the war oil revenues the future of nuclear weapons as well as a health care the hour and a half the base ended up being a little bit of a slanging match as the pair repeatedly shouted over each other to be heard there was very clear that the scottish national party leader was adopting a more emotional but more confident approach some said that the fact that he was shouting over his opponent could put off some voters but as we can see but the results of the snap election that seem to work in his favor well a fifth of scotland's electorate will start receiving their ballots as early as this tuesday and many of them could be making their decision today based on the debates. coming up in r. and t. international police struggle to get on a grip on gang crime in london well the venues have been jailed and seems a new people are quick to fill those criminal shoes will tell you why.
9:17 am
also while celebrities in the west take up the ice bucket challenge the arab world is a desperate to promote awareness of the child victims all the war but using the rubble of gaza and sort of pushes watch out that story coming up after this. 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 we will continue to provide military assistance and advice to the iraqi government and kurdish forces. reason for becoming independent schools
9:18 am
a nation that nation should be self-governing feels better that allows someone else to do it for. thanks for staying with us it's been difficult to be on social networks of late and not known to thousands of people posting photos and videos of themselves getting their used in ice cold water now almost two million people have already taken part
9:19 am
in the stunt to promote awareness of a less motor neuron disease more than sixty eight million dollars have already been raised by everybody from reva's movie stars to the best for me because in the history also if facebook co-founder as well as one of the wealthiest men on earth a former american president george bush took part in the trend to some of the participants of this great exceptional creativity while others prefer a less extreme but very witty approach. well parts of the world struggling to raise awareness of their tragic situations are hoping to use their own version of the popular campaign in gaza after weeks of conflict or water is worth its weight in gold and a lack of power makes it hard to freeze so a palestinian journalist is using the one thing which is freely available the rubble created by israeli missile strikes he's asking people to show themselves in the debris of buildings in stayed nothing would have taken part in the campaign so
9:20 am
we offered him about the serious message palestinians are trying to send to the outside world. we've organized a campaign called we have hope for children in gaza in order to support child victims in the region these children are getting showed in their houses with the roofs crumbling over their heads i want to share this picture with the world because the people not only in the arab world will feel the pain of the children and people of gaza. there any campaign has been a wiping out entire families in gaza with palestinians health officials came in as many as eighty nine and anti of values including numerous women and children were buried under their own homes by israeli strikes lol horrifying details from a combat search vailable online. and there is a quake in california has raised fears over the ability of the u.
9:21 am
was states in the last operating nuclear posture to avoid sharing the same page. with tragedy head to our home to find out what. public anger in the u.s. the military stalled police response to peaceful rallies over the shooting of an unarmed black teenager refuses to subside the protests that followed michael brown's funeral have been peaceful but more nationwide rallies against police brutality a planned for to say citizens all over the world will take to the streets demanding security forces stop. using tear gas and heavy weapons showing rallies they are planning to protest near police stations and news and perceive that maybe and reza in ferguson two police officers have been suspended for their hostile rhetorics one went on and twenty to say protestors should be killed like rabid dogs while another appears to have posted a video two years ago saying that he's
9:22 am
a killer who is ready to kill anybody political columnist ted rall believes the approach of the predominantly white police force in ferguson made the rallies inevitable what we're talking about is a powder keg that was ready to explode we're talking about a predominantly black community that had been harassed and abused by a predominantly white police force for many many years and in a city that had declining economic status for most people who lived in it and so it was only a matter of time before something happened to set that off michael brown may or may not be an angel we're probably never going to really know the truth there he's dead he can't speak for himself but in a sense it doesn't really matter what matters is that the overall situation that created those riots was going to create a riot from something at some point. in london the problem of gang crime may
9:23 am
have been falling but the problem of gang culture is still very much real that's leading to fears of a ticking time bomb shelters and a farmer takes up the story. gang crime and shocking scenes like these were becoming rarer in london cheatings had fallen by half in stabbings by a third over the last two years but community leaders a nice sounding the alarm over recent upturn in violence and ironically some blame operation trident a police game relaunch to tackle gangs after the london riots in twenty eleven what tribe has done taken out many of the low low level to put soldiers that used meat on the street and in the small amount of drugs and let the boy and now people are fighting over it out for it and the people who are now stepping into that void are more violent than the one that it's a concern born out in recent crime figures in parts of north london knife crime has
9:24 am
risen by thirty percent in the last twelve months while turf wars have been sparked by the vacuum left after active gang members were jailed community project leader sheldon thomas runs anti gang schemes in the capital and says there needs to be a change in policy the government can't just say right let's increase the number of police because that's going to make a difference because the police are not respected by some communities so the answer to this is to strengthen primitives but that says the match is exactly what it's been doing it frequently visit schools and a long list of foundations aimed at diverting youth away from gangs and has reached over twenty thousand youngsters in two years we can really clear that you don't solve a problem like gang crime by police action alone it's really about understanding what are the things that causes a young person to get into a gang what are the things that would get them to leave
9:25 am
a gang and of course there are things that the police on the expert in things like addressing mental health concerns give people opportunities for employment of training those are things for the rest of london needs to join together and i think we've seen some success in that. success though that's been hamstrung by cutbacks even him dugas has worked hard to fight gang culture in london's kurdish communities. do two or three commercials from into community groups charities will . is reduced dramatically so i think government used to find the think twice for coming this is a key issue as well. there is no doubt that london's gangs have been weakened since the riots of twenty eleven but the long term wisdom of projects like operation trident and i being questioned putting offenders under lock and key may bring down crime but there is a concern that that will just be temporary and more work needs to be done in communities to stop gang culture andrey farmer.
