on the resistance is partially writing the government's military in the east with more than a thousand soldiers killed wounded or taken prisoner by government forces. from moscow to the world this is r t international my names you know neil welcome to the program ten years ago on what was supposed to be the first day of school began a terrifying ordeal for the small town of beslan in southern russia the world watched part of finest chechen militancy school number one taking a thousand people hostage mostly children on parents for survivors and families their pain has not diminished.

early morning on the first of september with a mood of excitement 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 on the second day the authorities managed to convince the attackers to release mothers with babies at around one pm on the third day some of the terrorists explosives went off several hostages tried to escape only for the gunmen to open fire on them a few minutes later russian special forces moved in the number of victims of the siege was high three hundred thirty four innocent civilians died and more than eight hundred were injured in the treasury reports 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 you know why and all morial should be because other people the architect has been commissioned to sanctify the interior remains essential unchanged from what it was ten years ago that the horrific attack happened in the place on school number one for example the floor where mourners have been laying carnations still has the damage from the attack to 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 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 great we spoke with several people who survived the tragedy here's the story of two of them they survived against all laws to lead us about of and her two daughters live through that basic law 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 immediate return for this special commemoration the memories came flooding back. to bush right. now if you will give me a good. that the by the chart of cotton you sure will move them when it gets to me i think i said it's a lot of tea and some. terrorist took the hostages to the gym

a little later her mother voluntarily entered the building to be with her daughter's complaint so that when you know excluded to vote nasty it's a way. because our muslim youth to die to not must not see him up to come he promptly told them to don't we have that. when you cover news knowledge she got . in stupid demand she. just because i do see up in my goal of some of the moment. they stayed in that gym with her father school principal tarr can sit down of through most of the fifty two hour ordeal to even the key cheat lie cheat so most of them i didn't keep them standpoint she didn't but i'm still not i knew each other it's good to do it just because soon i'm simplifying is the point if i'm suddenly snuggle up we point is that you've lost our cans about of i mean his grandfather didn't survive you see

the oh it's all black when you did this good fresh look at the new. 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. our leaders 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. more than three hundred candles lining the ground in beslan in close to perfect symmetry set up outside of the gym where so many people innocent people lost their lives 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 before impact of what went on here and we'll be bringing you more coverage of the memorial events over the next two days also our t. speaks to the only terrorists who have survived the beslan atrocity you can hear what he had to say in twenty minutes time here on r t international. this is what they. need to know. is that you. need to. go in the east and there's an issue to go to much of the concern is that yes this was a chimney that moved. most mutual. well and needed to that nature that it will.

britain's prime minister has shared his vision on how the u.k. should deal with the threat posed by islamic state the terrorist group currently run paging across iraq and syria or to river listened in to a speech in parliament it appears that it's all about given great social forties and the police more power david cameron outline his strategy and getting this law mixed state and he believes to prevent variants from going abroad to travel alongside extremists and to prevent those who already have 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 next two months 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 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 and read to be in london the beheading of american journalist vice expected british jihad this and in fact five hundred of them have already unknowns who 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 poll 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 a muslim faith school right here in the u.k. in the city of birmingham and the fears 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. earlier we heard from political and social commentator mohammad ansari who thinks the u.k. should have seen the threat coming a long time ago firstly the fact that we have the. return of control orders and 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 many failed to intercept the failed around seven seven is continued to fail seeing people who are under surveillance going overseas to fight as they see it in an ideological than an intellectual or spiritual jihad overseas so we have the military of a domestic policy which is centered around the home office which is mired in

control of c. let's bring you up to date on ukraine and what could become a road map for peace the antigovernment leaders in the donetsk and lugansk regions have said their stance on the stumbling ties with kiev and the conditions that need to be met but there are still major obstacles ahead representatives of the self-proclaimed donetsk people's republic has already refused a proposal from both sides to stop using heavy artillery and warplanes in the conflict talks were held in minsk on sunday here's paula sleep with more on what was discussed. representatives of the donates going to guns with publics 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

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 there also asking for special economic and political status for the lugansk and in its cretin's 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 kiev 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 ill advised where the ukrainian army was surrounded by anti-government fighters it was forced to surrender and lay down its weapons we traveled to the frontline was. the sound of victory after

a week of did these battles is back in the hands of the anti-government fighters illawarra ski's 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 sorts of 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 the dude the resistance stronger the result is the. command to give he 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 off 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 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. r t in a vise eastern ukraine. government forces in eastern ukraine are on the offensive becoming apparent that kiev's military operation there is flying during the area showing an orange here on the mop is reportedly under the control of local militias but the red circle is just here at least three are where hundreds of ukrainian government troops have been surrounded by encircled met near the town of yellow

visger right here as well paula reported on just a second ago is seen here and to government forces there provided a humanitarian corridor to a large orders to leave peacefully kiev though has forbidden any of its troops from surrendering nevertheless at least two hundred have chose. and to do so saying that they have been abandoned by their superiors and left to die without the help of reinforcements as for the humanitarian situation russian aid is being handed out in cities and towns across eastern ukraine special trucks organized by local forces are 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 belarus the vice premier of the so-called the nets people's republic who is one of the negotiators has spoken about conditions back home. the humanitarian situation is very difficult and the aid is this really needed. transportation and logistics

but they must be supplied preemptively so as the wood complications. a second round of talks is set for september the fifth but already some progress has been made regarding prisoner swaps we will be keeping you updated on any breakthroughs that happen in the better russian capital. and more news on the way including why the e.u. is pulling the plug on powerful vacuum cleaners. differently here in syria now many of the members of congress of both parties have gone to syria in recent months has. given a clear message. that we choose diddy's time for him to get. stability and peace to syria is going to be the step.

there 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 to fear the islamic state it would appear washington continues to attempt to shape in reshape the middle east. faces are to international welcome back pakistan's capital is in the grip of political turmoil on sunday police force back a group of protesters attempting to storm a government complex in islamabad as follows two weeks of mass opposition rallies

calling for the prime minister's resignation earlier we spoke to a pakistan affairs expert about what's behind the on rest. it's unfortunate to see that to you to repeat it military intervention or critique structure. due to corruption in the political and civil and military groups and see the doing pretty good stringent screening to develop and flourish and that has actually we couldn't do critics but this is what we see in the recent days that is actually a manifestation of people said that of the confidence in democratic practices of a new really a recently more recently elected government to as has been to do just that used to situation we would actually do when you go to the democratic situation which is this in pakistan rather made fast to military intervention so he has to resolve warning sign to diffuse lot of concern about and to own. the government to be able

to sustain that i don't know you know for years the u.s. has been spending hundreds of billions of dollars on its nuclear arsenal but with a spate of scandal surrounding the units responsible for the thousands of warheads an aging infrastructure questions are being asked over the security of the world's deadliest weapons to account explains. 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 they had leased 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 their 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 missed. 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 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 the story length 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 it. the hearing or is it that you can't connect when you make. i mean you can hear in the other person on the other end 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 of introducing a new generation of nuclear weapons there's always complaints about misconduct faulty weaponry the fact that the united states is leg game 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 weapon safe in washington i'm going to check out

our team. much more waiting for you on our website including the search for a ghost ship kurdish an oil. missing for several days is located by satellite in the u.s. coast on r.t. dot com find out why the vessel with its hundred million dollar cargo has been avoiding detection. and also on the line the north korean government goes ballistic over a british t.v. drama focusing on the reclusive nation's nuclear program pyongyang calls it a slanderous force i know why this show has caused such anger on our web site. there's a menace lurking in europe's hustles which brussels green army is determined to get rid of the high powered vacuum cleaner from yesterday europeans won't be able to buy vacuums that burn up more than sixteen hundred watts to clean their floors it's supposed to help reduce energy usage but critics claim that's nonsense because

people have to use less powerful models for longer to get the tough job done well it's not the only appliance which got their eyes on up to thirty other high sold gadgets are in the firing line in the coming year from kettles to her dryers well a new spark mixed feelings of panic buying and among consumers some rushed to the shops to snap up the remaining high powered vacuum cleaners while some others took aim at e.u. lawmakers needlessly poking around people's homes. in one way they're paying a tone meant to the crazed 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 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 not a nice state trying to run the whole of europe according to a ridiculous through old dictum of economic decay hard for will they go when it comes to the process of capitals hairdryers normal ameena teams that are seen as being perfectly reasonable facets of western society oh they knew no bones they will keep going until the point in time when the public says no. one of the world's most ambitious gas pipeline projects which will link russia with china got a festive start yesterday remind cost revels in russia's far east region as construction of the historic network was launched russia's gas pipeline network is expanding to the east now this is the first section of your brain power of siberia by applying that will carry the national resource to customers here in russia and all the way to china as well invade 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 if you're rated by president vladimir putin the pipeline is set 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. koester of. now what's also significant above the route is not include some of the world's richest gas fields for a start to china and in sky a field is in the far eastern russian region. it's estimated to have gas reserves of around one point three three million cubic metres it's fast on the new power of siberia network will link it to another rich gas field in eastern siberia.

in island where there is thought to be around one point two trillion cubic meters of gas on russia's largest field which is believed to be the world's second biggest natural reserve is located in west siberia for over ten trillion cubic meters all the sites will be linked up to start to levering gas to china in twenty nine team. let's take a quick look at some other news making headlines around the world a suicide bombing in western iraq has claimed the lives of twenty two security personnel and fifteen civilians a terrorist drove a bomb laden car into a nine story building used by the police force an army extremist network as tomic states which has been in control of most of western iraq since january is believed to be behind the attack. in yemen members of a shia minority have flooded the streets of the capital undeterred a campaign of civil disobedience tens of thousands joined the rally calling on the

government to resign the group which was excluded from the national unity government wants a stronger political voice the arrest has caused international alarm prompting the u.n. security council towards the protesters to deescalate the situation. next here in our to international we hear from the only terrorist who survived the beslan atrocities in the rooms. in dunedin florida a young boy named t.j. guerrero is learning how to become an american man the old school way by selling cool drinks at a lemonade stand we hear a lot of lame examples of american exceptionalism from blowhard politicians but the idea of kid tropper nerd ship and the iconic norman rockwell esque lemonade stand is something exceptional and has certainly been good for the nation but for all of

his hard work what does t.j. get in return one of his neighbors is trying to shut down his quote illegal business that neighbor says the lemonade stand causes traffic noise trash illegal parking which all harms his property values cry me a river we all wonder where does support for the police state come from won't come from people like this will character who need the gun. meant to deal with a twelve year old trying to earn yes earn money you know there are some guys who work on cars on the street outside my window and yeah they get loud sometimes but i'm never going to call the cops on them because i'm just happy that some gunmen are still interested in working with their hands and moscow you see a lot of lads at short shorts with chihuahuas it's up to all of us to give each other a break sometimes and not tattle to the state about every little problem but that's just my opinion.

as to who will be over the wall. this is to move this. movie before.
