3:03 pm
who were lost. more than three hundred candles lining the ground in beslan and close to perfect symmetry set up outside of the gym where so many people innocent people lost their lives in the horrific base long school siege it's kind of eerie seeing the school building behind all the candles laid out those darkened hallways those darkened windows should normally during the school day be filled with children and with laughter but right now they are a silent somber almost eerie reminder of all of the lives that were lost and one other interesting thing to point out is as we look at the crowd you see people have brought their children young children in order to see what's going on here and i think it's interesting that these are children who in many cases are far too young to understand probably the full impact of what went on here we spoke with several people who survived the tragedy here's the story of two of them they survived against all odds

3:06 pm
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 i mean it says the nightmare inspired her to help others and she's studying to become a doctor très r.t. . we've more coverage of the more events to come over the next two days as well also the only terrorist who survived the beslan atrocity of serving life behind bars right now we speak to him we'll hear what he had to say about the slaughter of so many innocents coming up throughout the night next hour and next on our international and eleven thirty pm local time in the u.k. well this is this is the day when you. need to know. and there's a lot of concern is that your stance. sure that was
3:07 pm
natural. in nature that. next night britain's prime minister is sharing his vision on how the u.k. should deal with the threat posed by the bloodthirsty islamic state group that's operating in iraq in syria artie's recounts are listening to the speech to employees earlier tonight. it appears that it's all about given british authorities and the police more power david cameron outlined his strategy and defeating this law mix state and he believes to prevent brits from going abroad to travel alongside extremists and to prevent those who already have from common back he would have to give more powers to police officers at the border to confiscate the passports and in case the court decides to challenge him that he's considering create a new legislation to give the parliament the power to decide that over the court's
3:08 pm
next he wants british authorities to have enhanced the use of exclusion zones or relocation powers this is also something that will be debated and in general david cameron is responding to increased fears in the country over the widespread reach that the islamic state has according to a recent poll by you gov some sixty seven percent of brits support and five the u.k. government confiscate passports of those who are suspected to be members of the islamic states and of course their fears are further exacerbated over the of course the slaughter of soldier lee rigby in london the beheading of american journalist spice expected british jihad this and in fact the five hundred of them have already and known to have traveled to iraq and syria around half of them are already back so the danger and the threat is real and the brits here feel it and the pall of course shows the results of that and of course the latest revelation the fact that one of the islamic states key financier's was in fact the director of
3:09 pm
a muslim faith school right here in the u.k. in the city of birmingham and the fears here of it are shared by brits are also shared by other european citizens and the leaders of those countries as you can see now on your screen everyone is saying that the islamic state poses a direct threat to every single european country political and social commentator mohamad told me he figure you should have seen this coming a long term ago. firstly the fact that we have this. return of control orders and he claims i think but before you can we get to that stage people are wondering how when somebody is returning from syria or from the middle east are we going to assess whether they've been involved in any kind of radicalization any kind of terrorism or have in fact been fighting as to how do you think the problem has been that our policy on counter radicalization counter extremism has sensibly failed to failed to intercept the failed around seven seven it's continued to fail seeing
3:10 pm
people who are under surveillance going overseas to fight as they see it in an ideological in an intellectual or spiritual jihad overseas so we have the minutes have a domestic policy which is centered around the home office which is mired in controversy . east ukraine's road map to peace in a nut shell the antigovernment leaders in the defined donetsk and lugansk regions have given their vision of their future with kiev what exactly should they think be achieved to make it possible. the offers and demands. at present it is of the don't it's going to guns quick public's have been meeting with representatives of the king of authorities in the belorussian capital this is the first time that they has been such a concerted effort to reach some kind of negotiated settlement between the two sides but we are being told not to expect a major breakthrough and certainly not expected any time soon what this really is is an opportunity if you like for the two sides to size one another up and see in
3:11 pm
what areas they can cooperate now the team from new guns candidates put forward several demands some of these include ending the military operation that is a direct call to the kiev government they're also asking for special economic and political status for the lugansk and in its greetings and at the same time for the russian language to be granted official status of course this is the dominant language in this part of ukraine in return they are offering to begin the process of restoring ties with here they looking at the creation of a shared security area and also for economic cultural political and social cop aeration now these talks come as fighting on the ground intensifies one of the flashpoints here in the past few days has been the town of vice square that ukrainian army was surrounded by anti-government fighters it was forced to surrender and lay down its weapons we traveled to the front line.
3:12 pm
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 brewed in the other one of sort of pieces of them on the field nobody is asking for them the spoils of victory made it out we put down their weapons before they did the resistance wrong the result is that they suffer defeat come on to give ease 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 will 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
3:13 pm
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 more role 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 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 colas fear r t l advice to eastern ukraine. so let's hope some familiar picture on the ground as we know it at the moment the news will hear antigovernment forces news to crane on the offensive and it's becoming apparent that chios military operation is facing defeat the area code orange let's focus in on that area is reportedly under the control of the local militias but the three red circles here. there where hundreds and hundreds of ukrainian government troops have been surrounded the encircled turn that paul was
3:14 pm
talking about just now van schaik is seen here on the map just above those circles that's where anti government forces provided the humanitarian corridor to try to allow soldiers to leave an armed for its part the oke kiev has forbidden any of those soldiers to surrender now the less at least two hundred have chosen to do so saying they've been abandoned the field by their superiors not been left to die with reinforcements as for the other extremely important side the humanitarian situation russian aid is being handed out to cities and towns across east ukraine special trucks organized by local forces of ferrying supplies to communities hit hardest by the fighting the humanitarian crisis is also figuring in talks between kiev and the east that have begun in better routes earlier today vice premier of the so-called donetsk people's republic who's one of the negotiator is there a spoken about conditions back home. that the humanitarian situation is very difficult than the aid is desperately needed we are capable of organizing
3:15 pm
transportation and logistics but they must be supplied preemptively so as there would complications. well a second round of talks is set for september the fifth already some progress reportedly has been made regarding prisoner exchanges since we get more on that or any more details on any more breakthroughs as they have been the better russian capital will bring them to you is quite a person level even though a moscow thanks for being with us i'm kevin owen coming up security problems possibly facing america's billion dollar nuclear arsenal worries there are stories to just at. c.b.s. business are to see it more than the propaganda. it is the state sponsored brochure today programme just words might soon be enough like telling them and analyze this. is just ridiculous not an answer to my question. john is not.
3:16 pm
supporting their safety and sometimes their lives over them to bring people stories among the public and the challenge don't want to see coming tomoko some. of the. dramas that challenge be ignored. stories others refuse to notice. food since changing the world lights never. so picture of today's leaves. from around the globe. dropped to. fifty. hello again for years the u.s.
3:17 pm
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 got if you can reports. 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 this part of the drug investigation o.s.i. agents found test material on 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.
3:18 pm
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 easy 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 nukes one of the officers actually fell asleep when c.b.s. crew traveled to one of three land based missile sites in the u.s. they found aging infrastructure and revealed that the man a women who oversee some of the world's deadliest weapons have trouble hearing what is being said on their phones. yes. it is great about them is that what you hearing or is it that you can't connect when you make. i mean you
3:19 pm
can't hear in the other person the other end line sometimes you can 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 of introducing a new generation of nuclear weapons there's always complaints about misconduct faulty weaponry the fact that the united states is laying him 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.
3:20 pm
this but another win for the euro skeptics this time a german parties won its first parliament seats following the election and the state of saxony there it's no good at site so in other regions in germany to the alternative to germany group already has seventy euro m.p.'s support a party member hugh bronson explained what his group wants to achieve in brussels. the main issues that our seven representatives in the european parliament want to address of course over the three points one of course is to secure national sovereignty and to work against the united states of europe because the peoples of europe have never been asked if they want to live in a super state stretching from respond to let's say the border to ukraine. secondly they want to reduce bureaucracy going to spending the uncontrolled spending of taxpayers' money that goes to brussels last but at least they want more democracy more a friend. check in a few stories in a web site r.t. dot com tonight we put together for you monk so many bahrain is detained another
3:21 pm
human rights activist the moment she got off the plane we're talking about this last night didn't see him catch up with it but he dot com has got her story also the opinion of key opposition needed now bill rogers spoke to the interviews online if you want to check it also online it turns out that a hard day's work can kill a despite what the bosses say a new study shows that you're more likely to die on the job than in a war. so maybe a good excuse not to do the cleaning at home vacuum cleaning why am i talking about that was a menace lurking in europe's households which brussels green army knows to turn to get wood over talking about the high powered vacuum cleaner from today europeans will be able to buy vacuums that burn up more than six hundred watts of electricity to clean those floors bad news if you've got pets with hairs everywhere it's supposed to help reduce energy usage but critics claim that's nonsense because of
3:22 pm
course people have to use less powerful models for longer to get the job done and it's not only hoover's vacuum cleaner is that you're a kratz it got their eyes on up to thirty other household gadgets are in the firing line for the coming year as well everything from kettles to head drive is the new sport mixed feelings and of panic buying and anger amongst the consumers some rush to the shops to try to snap up the last remaining high power vacuum cleaners while others took aim at e.u. law makers needlessly poking around people's homes. in one way they're paying atonement to the koreans to undermine they'd 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 they know better of what the people should be doing and therefore the freedom to clean your home does not become a victim of the whole process of brussels is nanny state trying to run the whole of
3:23 pm
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 is that are seen as being perfectly reasonable facets of western society oh they knew no bounds they will keep going until the point in time when the public says no from energy problems to energy solutions next one of the world's most ambitious gas pipeline projects which will link russia and china got a festive start today with mccusker of russia's far east regions construction of this historic network was launched. russia's gas pipeline network is expanding to the east now this is the first section of the a brand new power of siberia pipeline that will carry the natural resource to customers here in russia and all the way to china as well in maybe moscow and beijing signed a record four hundred billion dollar deal that will bring russian gas to china over the next thirty years so you know you're aided by president vladimir putin the
3:24 pm
pipeline is said to be complete at the end of twenty eighteen and russia will be ready to export to china the following year now this project is one of many that's been earmarked to further develop russian chinese relations in the energy sector as the economic bonds between the two neighboring nations grows ever stronger. all significant about this route is that it includes some of the world's richest gas fields let's take a look at the news will for a start the shine didn't sky field in the russian far east region of us want to talk about its estimated to have a gas reserve about one point three trillion cubic metres is vast and this new power of siberia network set to link another rich gas field as well called victory in eastern siberia valley in turn will hook up with sakhalin island here it comes where it's thought to be about one point two trillion cubic meters of gas in storage there under the ground and russia's largest field which is believed to be
3:25 pm
the world's second biggest natural reserve is located in west siberia that's over ten trillion cubic meters to all the sites that will be linked up start delivering gas to china in twenty nineteen. big whistleblower against shady governments and businesses can be dangerous enough but it can also be risky apparently when it comes to exposing crimes against wildlife now that in the same vein as wiki leaks a new global projects looks to help those who want to enormous lee try to lift the lid on poaching and animal trafficking the founder of wild leaks told us of the total anonymity his project promises. deletes that we received our q four lee kept offline in the in a server in euro. we can see that at the best possible system that we can offer to a whistleblower right now and we never share any source or even. have beliefs we receive our computer or not we don't know who you are so this is the best
3:26 pm
protection you can likely. not even know why do we supply orders and in case they get out if you leave from a show and that and gives information movies could be instrumental to to find out to understand why we never share that information with anybody even when we share actually the leak so we think that we feel pretty safe secure anonymous environment for these people. the pakistani military has cleared the headquarters of a state run t.v. station that had earlier been overrun by protesters who also attempted to storm the official residence of the prime minister whose resignation is their chief demand retired pakistan general teller masood told us he believes the premier can see this through the and stay in power. but i don't think that it would go to the extent of destabilizing the government to a point to where he will have to resign now the situation is very different to what
3:27 pm
it was a year yesterday and it is very much possible and there would be some flexibility shown by him ron clark and mine are not god really who is there in a religious cleric because it seems that the army also has been accused of sort of helping them he says be which probably is not true the aggressiveness with and that was being shown by iran and the quantum level of confidence that he was betraying i think that it has been punted. heading into a break next after that is cross-talk an art. international cycling whether islamic state gains in iraq and syria will push the u.s. into a new war big worry if you're in the u.k. a special program for you going on the ground with option return.
