still intriguing story for you. the. arabic for visit. the cranes to find eastern regions named their demands to kiev's government which may prevent the country breaking apart. ukraine's military has partially ranted in the east with more than a thousand soldiers killed wounded or taken prisoner by anti-government forces over the last few days also. remembering beslan russia marks ten years since the terrorist siege of a school which killed more than three hundred children and left the community forever scarred we hear from survivors of the tragedy and. decaying infrastructure and cheating stuff that america's billion dollar nuclear arsenal is

facing a security crisis. could have a company with r.t. international leaders new cranston yes and regions have announced a list of negotiating points which the. government today's talks in bettering. a report from the. they have proposals that are aimed at curbing the violence reducing the number of people that are being killed and injured here in eastern ukraine at the same time they do say that they have agreed on working to preserve ukraine's territorial sovereignty and in return they want these proposals made they include an end to the ukrainian military operation here in the east of the country

they want to amnesty for the fighters and political prisoners they want to fishel status for the russian language and they want special territorial status special economic status which would eventually mean closer ties with russia and special military status which implies recognition for these anti-government fighters all of this comes as the anti government fighters are on the offensive here in eastern ukraine at focal point of the most recent fighting has been the town of ill advised where the ukrainian military has been a surrendered and forces would urge them to surrender their arms we went to the front line from where i filed this report was. the sound of victory after a week of did the battles is back in the hands of the anti government fighters ill advised because now completely under our control there will be no mercy i will never forgive them for destroying our cities. the smell of death still hangs over

the battlefield. two bodies one is brute and the other one a sword to pieces of them on the field nobody is asking for them the spoils of victory made it out we put down their weapons but before they did the resistance stronger the result is that the suffering come on to give it is in high spirits at headquarters he congratulates his men. about four thousand eight hundred soldiers attacked us this month not more than two hundred of them survived all of their combats quitman has been destroyed who want to fight us after this. the thirty four year old commander hasn't had a day off since fighting began five months ago we won that fight we stood up for our city even when we had lost twenty percent of the city in four days we took it back and in the process squashed the morale of the ukrainian army sending thousands to the streets of kiev to demonstrate against the generals who they say abandoned

and betrayed their own men with them but at the end of a hard day of fighting this is where the soldiers come to hang up their guns to renew their energy and to warn the mothers of ukrainian soldiers what their sons are up against paulus fear r t l advice eastern ukraine. ten years ago today the first day of school became a terrifying ordeal for the small town of beslan in southern russia the world watched horrified as chechen militants seized school number one taking a thousand people hostage mostly children and parents for survivors and families there the pain has not diminished.

an early morning with a mood of excitement and anticipation young families arrive for the start of the new term but terrorists stormed the school killing eighteen people in the process they laid explosives around the building and on the second day the thora has managed to convince the attack is to release mothers with babies twenty six people in all at around one pm though the third day some of the terrorists explosives went off killing many hostages and partially destroying one of the school walls some hostages use that opportunity to try to escape only for the terrorist to open fire killing women and children well a few minutes later russian special forces moved in and by seven pm the fighting was over the number of victims was high three hundred thirty four innocents died

and more than eight hundred were injured but frazer reports now from beslan as its people remember those who were lost. while the crowds and the people may come and go from this tragic site the names will always remain of more than three hundred innocents who lost their lives during the tragic school siege in baseline those three hundred people a small fraction of more than a thousand people who were trapped inside the school gym during that three day long attack now the gym itself is she in this metal coating this area is now where the architect has been commissioned to sanctify the interior remains essential unchanged from when it was ten years ago that the horrific attack happened at baseline school number one for example the floor where mourners have been laying carnations still has the damage from the attack the walls still bare

the pockmarks from the bullet holes where the machine guns fired their rounds into the walls several things have changed here in the gym for example to cross this altar that has been set up in the center and look at many many hundreds of flowers that have been laid here by the mourners during the horrific attack on the militants said that everybody needed to undergo a fast they were denied food and water to the children many of whom stripped down to their underwear because the heat was so sweltering it was the only way to stay cool here mourners are bringing bottles of water in order to give them comfort be on the graves we spoke with several people who survived the tragedy here's the story of two of them they survived against all laws a lead us about of and her two daughters lived through the baseline school siege they were among more than a thousand children staff and parents held hostage by heavily armed chechen extremists when a leader and her daughter a meta returned for this special commemoration the memories came flooding back. to

this right. now if you will given that it was that that died. yes not that charitable cause of unusual move to eat i think i said it's a lot of tea to. terrorists took the hostages to the gym a little later her mother voluntarily entered the building to be with her daughters complain of that when you know excluded to vote with nasty to weigh up ideologically scott all muslim youth adopt was called out to not must not see him up to come he promptly told clueless don't want them to don't we have the bizarre. when you cover news knowledge she got. it. yes there you go to the moon she. just because i do see up in my goal of the moment. they stayed in that gym with her father school principal tara can sit down of through most of the fifty two hour

ordeal to read even the key cheat lie cheat so most of them i didn't keep them standpoint she didn't but i'm still not style i knew each other that's easy to do in this yes because soon i'm simplifying is the point if i'm suddenly snuggle up we point is that you've lost entire towns about of a meanest grandfather didn't survive or you see the oh it's all black you did the of this good brochure. years later the blood is gone but the pain remains while the baseline school gym has been cleaned up and turned into a memorial for the victims the school hallways remain virtually untouched since that terrible attack ten years ago the walls still bear the scars of the bullet holes that run from the floor up to the ceiling a leader even prayed for their own deaths to end their suffering but she and her daughters made it through and haven't lost their faith in the future ameena says the nightmare inspired her to help others and she's studying to become a doctor matras r.t. best. we have more coverage of today's moving memorial events to come also the only

terrorist to have survived the present atrocity is serving life behind bars r.t. spoke to him later hey what he had to say about the slaughter of say many innocents all this is called although you don't give all he. knew little or no. this is the new version is it. mr instance and. we're going to trickle in the piece and there's a lot of much of the concern is that your stance. in a dream is the most neutral. on the world and negative that in nature that it will . now for years the u.s. has been spending hundreds of billions of dollars on its nuclear arsenal but with

the spate of scandal surrounding the units responsible for the thousands of warheads and an aging infrastructure questions are being asked over the security of the world's deadliest weapons. expects. in a field where there is no room for error a series of scandals is haunting the management of land based nuclear missiles earlier this year ninety one officers were implicated in a test cheating scandal it's twenty percent of all officers who are in charge of some of america's deadliest weapons the air force removed the entire chain of command at the base where it happened while investigating those missile as personal cell phones as part of a drug investigation o.s.i. agents found test material on them investigations of drug possession by missile officers also made headlines and there was more this week the air force says the entire wing failed a safety and security inspection u.s.

led based missile facilities failed safety and security inspections several times in recent years although the air force does not reveal specifics of the failures and insists that the weapons are safe but not everyone is it iis as reports about a security breach continue to come in it was one year ago that two nuclear officers were actually breaking security rules because they left an underground command center blast door open that's where you get in actually set off the noose one of the officers actually fell asleep when c.b.s. crew traveled to one of three lead based missile sites in the u.s. they found aging infrastructure and revealed that the man a woman who oversee some of the world's deadliest weapons have trouble hearing what is being said on their phones. what is great about them is that. the hearing or is it that you can connect when you make a call or both i mean you can hear in the other person only other and line

sometimes you can't dial out which makes it very difficult if you're trying to do your job the obama administration's plans for the u.s. nuclear weapons complex including modernization of bombs and delivery systems will cost the country about. three hundred fifty five billion dollars over the next decade but there's something about this story that's important which is that every time the u.s. is about to begin a new cycle introducing a new generation of nuclear weapons there's always complaints about misconduct faulty weaponry the fact that the united states is legging behind isn't keeping up with world standards and that usually is used as a pretext to accelerate another stage of what was used what used to be called the arms race of course some of the complaints will help the government raise money to modernize its nuclear complex but the scandals also show what a challenge it is just to keep the weapons. in washington i'm going to shake out. now an embassy abandoned by the us is falling to libyan islamic militants and

they're making the most of their prize an armed gang seize the compound before brazenly organizing a. media tour we've got the details on this just ahead plus why europeans are being floored by news that they'll no longer be allowed to buy certain types of vacuum cleaners in the brussels. it more than the propaganda. that is the state sponsor of russia today programme just words might soon be enough like telling them and analyze this present time is just ridiculous not an answer to my question. john is not happy to support their safety and sometimes their lives all of them will bring people stories among the public and the challenge don't want to see and we talk to some

folks. still. dramas they're trying to be ignored. stories others refuse to notice. the faces changing the world lights never. so picture of today's events lived tons and tons from around the globe. local. t.v. . we think of why we think they're good. for us and beaches. coconut palms gently swaying in the ocean breeze. and frank. white has a deep dark little secret a secret the u.s.

government would like you can all go. to our labor. bilbo i did dearly associated take a good ol will there is a. i think. everybody you know did you know the price is the only industry specifically mention of the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our democracy but albus. role. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across the semi-colon we've been hijacked like handful of transnational corporations that will profit by destroying what our founding fathers one still just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's

actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem. rational debate and a real discussion critical issues facing america if i ever feel ready to join the movement then welcome to the big picture. again our faction in libya has seized the u.s. embassy in tripoli which has been standing vacant since the end of july once inside is missed militants immediately organized a media tour of the facility washington evacuated it stopped over a month ago is fighting escalated between rival gangs the editor of the pan-african newswire told us that the us messed up in libya by overwhelming it with weapons. the security situation in libya is becoming even more precarious the united states

anticipating that this what happened pulled out its personnel and drove them to tunisia well i think the united states is trying to figure out which road to take they have a lot at stake in their attempts to remake libya in their own image they may decide to get allies some type of military force to get in and set up a beachhead in libya but this of course will only spark more animosity and more fighting in a possible grow war about those who are opposed to the u.s. backed militias inside that country. well another radical islamic state has been snatching vital territory from the country from the control of iraqi and syrian government's people. discuss whether this could make america once again intervene in the middle east well clearly that has been a failed strategy when it comes to syria and iraq how much is the obama under

pressure to do something as they always say something must be done you look at poll numbers from you know polls taken throughout the country overwhelmingly not in favor of intervention in syria don't want to send troops back to iraq maybe air strikes because they think airstrikes are relatively antiseptic at least to the people in the airplanes not on the ground the choices are all bad you'll go away any take out the islamic state in syria you're helping assad. that's crosstalk a bit later on now there is a menace lurking in europe's households which brussels green army is determined to get rid of the high powered that cleaner from today europeans won't be able to buy back. burner more than sixteen hundred watts to clean their floors it is supposed to help reduce energy usage but critics claim that is nonsense because people will have to use less powerful models for longer to get the job done well it's not only

if that's not only the appliance but your accounts have got their eyes on up to thirty other household gadgets are in the firing line in the coming year from kettles to head riots the news did spark a mixture of feelings of panic buying and anger among consumers and some rush to the shops to snap up the remaining vacuum cleaners while others took aim at lawmakers needlessly poking around people. in one way they're paying a tone to the koreans to and indeed flawed concept of global warming and another they're obviously worried about the fact that actually europe doesn't have enough energy to sustain itself and it's currently having a large argument with russia but really what this goes down to is the belief amongst the liberal elite in brussels that they know better what the people should be doing and therefore the freedom to clean your home has not become a victim of the whole process of brussels is now at least it trying to run the whole of europe according to a ridiculous flawed dictum of economic decay quite far will they go when it comes

to the process of capitals hairdryers normal and mean it things that are seen as being perfectly reasonable facets of western society oh they know no bines they will keep going until the point in time when the public says no. bahrain's detained another human rights activist from the moment she got off the plane r.t. dot com has got the story for you and hear what key bahrain opposition leader in the job has to say about her ordeal also online it turns out that a hard day's work can kill you a new study shows that you're more likely to die on the job than in a war. being a whistleblower again shady governments and business can be dangerous enough but it can also be risky when it comes to exposing crimes against wildlife now in the same vein as wiki leaks a new global project looks to help those who want to anonymously lift the lid on

poaching and the more trafficking r.t. talked to those behind the project. wildlife crimes are serious crimes and in many countries there are organized crime networks that are orchestrating these crimes and there's key individuals involved who are very powerful and very influential have a lot of money and they're being protected by. corrupt government officials by politicians or even by corrupt law enforcement officials so for anyone who has information about these types of crimes it's incredibly dangerous to just speak out about it and that's why we've created wild leaks it's anonymous and it's safe so it's very safe and easy but some amazing is that it's anonymous so you remain completely anonymous throughout the process let's have a quick look at some other stories now first to pakistan in an attempt to storm the prime minister's residence there crowds of anti-government protesters tried to force their way into the properties around the bad they also stormed the state run

t.v. station temporarily taking it off air police took control of the transmission building shortly afterwards and made dozens of arrests but resolute demonstrators have to camp out in the capital until prime minister sharon resigns. revising erupted between syrian army forces and al-qaeda linked rebels by the demilitarized zone with israel on the golan heights explosions from mortar shells and persistent arms fire could be heard on the israeli controlled side of the frontier last week syrian rebels seized a crossing on the border and abducted un peacekeepers forty five troops from fiji is still being held captive in the area. but police in hong kong have clashed with pro-democracy supporters using pepper spray to disperse activists it was sparked by a speech from a beijing official who explained better strictures on the island's next elections the demonstrators accuse china of breaking his promise promise to let hong kong directly elect the city's next leader twenty seventeen activists page to carry out

a campaign of civil defense disobedience to demand the. the nomination of candidates. up next not say you internationalists promise cross talk on whether islamic state gangs in iraq and syria will push the u.s. into a new war but in the u.k. hear more from the families of the president tragedy as they tell the sole surviving terrorist about what they got three. technology innovation. developments. we.

covered. well one of the walls from. egypt seems that it leads to some of these little schools closely it would seem to be. from still a little distance from the most will all be informed. we think of why we think that there are no. sand beaches. coconut palms gently swaying in the ocean breeze. in fact white has

a deep dark little secret a secret the us government would like you to know about. through all a. little ball i did read the daily succeeded a keygen all will go in there is an. old. one of the new will come up in a life should be good news all the same type you know alone. a pleasure to have you with us here on our t.v. today i'm researcher.

hello and welcome to crossfire for all things considered on people of oh here we go again we're told the islamic state terrorist group is the worst of the worst and has global ambitions the public is being taught slowly but surely the fear of the islamic state it would appear washington continues to attempt to shape it in reshape the middle east. to cross-talk the islamic state i'm joined by my guest jobber haasan in london he is director of the iraqi association also in london we have joseph willits he is

from the council for arab british understanding and in washington we cross to ray locker he is the washington enterprise editor for usa today right gentlemen cross-talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want ray if i go to you in washington we have the u.s. defense secretary saying the islamic state threat beyond anything we've seen is it really of this magnitude here because we've heard this before about other groups and the march toward go ahead ray in washington. well we have a history of doing that i mean the government as we saw that pre two thousand and three with saddam hussein and iraq saying he had weapons of mass destruction he didn't we invaded anyway and now all of the rest of the world wonders about our credibility however we had an attack on nine eleven thirteen years ago that killed more than three thousand people and nobody wants to be the person in charge in the government who turns a blind eye to something like that rules out a potential threat and then comes to regret it later so certainly politically the

pressure is on to always take these things seriously and then if they turn out not to be so bad to dial it back this may not be a case where we can dial it back if we keep stepping up the military action ok that's interesting joseph if i go to you in london but i mean i suppose if you could just get the chicken or the egg here of course no politician wants to be held responsible for not being vigilant enough here but if you continue to involve yourself in the affairs of other people very far away you know it's syria you know the free syrian army give them money give them equipment oh well there are two to a religious or too radical for us so they move over to another group with our equipment our money our training and you know again the law of unintended consequences i mean of course what ray says is true but that also can justify more military intervention when less intervention is probably the best thing to do go ahead.
