a section of the border that is not well signposted they were then intercepted by the ukrainian security services can from what we understand the release talks were complicated and difficult but it is important to note that border incidents like this are not uncommon early in august there were around four hundred ukrainian service men who crossed over into russian territory now they were encircled by the anti government forces they asked the russian border patrol to give them a humanitarian corridor also that they could evacuate they wounded and they were injured they also said they had run out of food and the mission later they returned to ukraine but not off to some of their personal received medical treatment inside russia it was also another incident some three days ago when some sixty ukrainian servicemen crossed over into russia seeking shelter this comes as the n.t. government forces are on the offensive this is a military operation where they are seeking to assist trapped citizens from the notion and from the constant shelling that we're seeing from your trainee an army

here in the east of the country essentially what these anti-government commanders are saying is that they are protecting the civilians here in this part of the country now they continues to be a targeting of residential areas there has been a railway station that has been hit there is a proving as well as a car in a bus that has gone up in flames and we just drove past that site this is several hours after the attack happened and their past is still smoldering the anti government troops continue to push back the ukrainian army and they are receiving assistance from foreign fighters who volunteered to come and lend their assistance and so everybody is war and several every european war. and more and more overseas find has all signing up for joining the antic you have troops in eastern ukraine the wall is slowly advancing into jeannette's city center this used to be a hardware store but like a growing number of soft targets around the city. it has been reduced to rubble

a growing number of europeans are saying enough is enough and are backing their words up with action twenty five year old niccolo was a professional soldier with the elite french mountain troops for five years now he's pushing his skills to good use in ukraine alongside a contingent of other foreign volunteers he's training and government forces in urban guerrilla warfare. these are people's militias these are not mercenaries or professional soldiers so they need instruction they really have the motivation whereas the kiev army which is a kind of puppet of nato they don't have any motivation whatsoever and they do not really know why they are fighting and against whom they are fighting so that is our main strength. the aid is also a symbolic. for many of these people from the west it's the first time to come defend what is considered by western governments bad cards or the bad guys cards so

it's very important to show the people from the west are distinct from their governments and they are ready to come and fight and risk their lives to defend another world it's not just france volunteers from c.b.s. spain germany poland israel and the united kingdom are internet scum the front line . we believe that ukrainian army will not be able to sustain a word or even fall because it's huge the day goes by they lose money they lose motivation they lose manpower they lose. they lose so each day that goes by they grow weaker we grow stronger stronger. now finds itself in between a rock and a hard place what to do is move its young men sign up to fight against its ally. but that legally we don't see what the french government can do to us because first of all we're not paid so we're not mercenaries we're not terrorists we're not jihadi and of course it's a mission of information it's a political mission it's

a mission of soft power a mission that's growing stronger as a brigade of western volunteers is put together under the name of the united continent they're showing just how disunited europe is on the question of ukraine policy r.t. did its eastern ukraine. earlier international law expert alexander more caress joined us to the skies the release of the russian soldiers who had been held for five days in ukraine. the ukrainian government wanted to milk. all political. they're trying to argue and have been trying to argue for a long time that they're not really fighting the people of the eastern ukraine but that they're fighting the russian army so here they had ten russian actual ten actual russian soldiers and they were able to grade them and to put them on television and to show them as proof of the claim that they've been making for

a long time that it is the russian army that they're fighting rather than their own the evidence does not look which will convince you that there are any russian troops there but of course one can have unconvincing evidence if people want to believe it and these ten russian soldiers unfortunately were if you like a gift from heaven in that respect meanwhile the self-proclaimed authorities in the net save a have a large ukraine's army to take their wounded and dead right of an encircled very in eastern ukraine these are the latest pictures from the outskirts of the time of year violence where you can see troops carrying i think if i q ation several brigades from ukraine's national guard have been trapped in the area for a week have suffered serious losses in the country offensive by local militia groups. russia's deputy defense minister has said here is accusations that moscow has boots on the ground in ukraine and is supplying arms to anti-government

forces are simply incorrect he made the comments to slovak media earlier on saturday. so it's gross. ukraine was part of the soviet union and there were many arms depots across the soviet union and when russia and ukraine became separate states millions of automatic rifles mines no tillery systems were left in ukraine's territory so there were warehouses with arms on the turrets you were a kid is now conducting its punitive action against its own people and these warehouses came under the control of anti government forces people who took up arms to defend their rights so to speak about russia supplying arms to the net school lugansk is simply wrong just look at what ukraine's army is fighting with it's fighting with russian arms or soviet times to be exact meanwhile european leaders are summit in brussels and joining them ukraine's president has gone a step further in its accusations against russia and the report has claimed there

are thousands of russian troops and hundreds of tanks on ukraine's soil he say's they pose a grave threat not only to the country but to the peace and stability of europe these are images presented by nato which the alliance claim is proof that russian self-propelled artillery units are moving through east ukraine other images allegedly show activity in russia near the ukrainian border something nato sees as part of moscow's so-called destabilizing strategy moscow has rebuffed the allegations saying the pictures only damage the alliance international reputation. the e.u. says it wants to avoid confrontation but is prepared to toughen its sanctions against moscow those remarks came from the president of the european commission josee manuel barroso who spoke to the media alongside the ukrainian president but the head of russia's lower house of parliament sais that any such measures will also harm ordinary europeans. spoke exclusively to r.t.

. but. as the sanctions policy spirals out of control more and more m.p.'s and politicians in general start to question its effectiveness they see with increasing clarity that it's the people who have to pay the price for this policy basically while imposing sanctions on russia you governments make their own businesses and their own people pick up the tab make them pay for that political mistakes or i think it's becoming more and more obvious so the sentiment of the political elite and the general public is shifting moscow in brussels have agreed that ukraine will have to pay the huge debt it owes russia for natural gas supplies ensuring the safety transit all of gas pumped through ukraine's pipeline system is vital for the not the pendants on russian feel will remain at least for another decade according to the rating agency fitch has predicted that other suppliers will not be ready to meet demand europe's not ready to rework the current infrastructure or shift to

using other sources of energy like shale gas ukraine also gets its gas from russia but owes moscow more than five billion dollars the state coffers are running empty and one of the country's largest power plants has had its gas cut off after using too much of the resource people are now being encouraged to cut down on their energy usage as well as the tranquil reports. it looks like ukraine's capital is in for another sunny week although throughout the hot summer a key of was not lining up for air conditioners but rather elektra's boilers as the government saving gas for the winter people have been left with cold showers in the summer the country is preparing for december way in advance like in this school where kids will now have classes on saturdays to avoid the deep freezes of christmas with two months of holiday. but some think the public's efforts shouldn't

end there wasn't just the theater at all mostly because you know the jewel in the evening we can leave the lights off in our houses look in just light candles he will create a romantic vibe and lift your mood i think such light is much better than those bright lamps. energy efficiency campaigns are running wild but they do need to be digital to you know put it in that home but if you to buy it but then with the buddhism in there to get it because of where you said it and. while some are looking for offbeat solutions others seem to be more obsessed with politics here's a set of stickers being promoted online so leave your bedroom lights off and you're a patriot but plug in a computer or a laptop and your this ilia up a trend go r t human rights watch has again called and care for information and russian photojournalists on the stand and went missing in ukraine at the start of

this month the watchdogs deputy director for europe and central asia said the rights of media workers are being infringed in ukraine both by militias and the army she also said authorities have a truck record of detaining russian journalist kiev say's it has no information about the veteran photo reporter. the u.k. prime minister will hold talks over the weekend a new measures to tackle islamic jihad this the government is worried about the growing tide of britons traveling to the middle east to fight what they see as a holy war the country's threat levels all to raise to severe which means and i attack on british soil is quote highly likely the new plans could make it easier to revoke passports of those looking to travel abroad up to two hundred fifty jobs are thought to have returned to the u.k. already from the middle east the british government has for years given material

support to what it calls moderate rebels fighting the assad regime in syria. there will be move political progress unless the opposition is able to withstand the onslaught and put pressure on assad so he goes there is no military victory so we will also increase our efforts to support and to shape the moderate opposition what we're facing in iraq now with isis is a greater and deeper threat to our security than we have known before a new video has been circulating online showing a twenty one year old london are bragging of joining what he calls the golden era of jihad he's also calling on other young britons to follow his lead on to war activist brian bakker gave us his thoughts on the rise of extremism in the middle east. the u.k. joined with the united states in carrying out a war against muslim countries in the middle east as it's perceived in them in the middle east and amongst muslims in the u.k. is that the u.k. government is part of a war against islam and this facilitates and plays into the hands of those who are

who are promoting political islamics especially extremist elements who show yes this is a war against islam and yes we can build in recruiting organize on this basis but fundamentally it is the policy of the u.k. government in hand with the united states government that has created the conditions for this development i think behind the terror threat level is the real politics of what's going on the terror threat level is not really about perceived terror it's about preparing public opinion in the u.k. and in the united states for an escalating intervention by the united states in the u.k. in the middle east and they always have to do it on the pretext of protecting the domestic population against the threat of terrorism. they're just how this thread has put the spotlight on security plans for the nato summit in cardiff a new port next week and the u.k. is going to great lengths to ensure the safety of the high profile figures who will be attending that says hundreds of protesters are flocking to the whole city's

drafted in from across the u.k. now this operation that critics say has cost up to fifteen million pounds to secure a part of new port this city and also wells capital cardiff which has also been caught up significantly in the security preparations including towns and kilometers of security barriers being put in the center of the south wales cities the police are trying to do many things first protect the nato summit itself second to also facilitate the democratic protests of peaceful protesters and third to try and keep wales and the u.k. secure from the increased terror threat which was raised just in alaska. at least two hundred people have reportedly been injured during mass protests in pakistan police fired tear gas and thought of demonstrators led by the country's two main opposition groups tried to march towards the prime minister's official residence
