i'm. remembering russian marks ten years since the terrorist siege of a school which killed more than three hundred people mostly children and left the community forever scarred we hear from survivors of the tragedy. the british prime minister david cameron i'd lines his vision on how the u.k. should deal with the international threat posed by home grown terrorists fighting the islam state for the. greens to find eastern regions present the kiev government with a list of the moms on offers for the two conflict things sides to make peace. on the resistance pushes back partially righting the government's military in the east

with more than a thousand soldiers killed wounded or taken prisoner by government forces. you're watching from in the world welcome to mosque one to twenty four seven r.t. international my name's union o'neill. ten years on. go excuse me 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 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.

early morning on the first of september with a mood of excitement and anticipation young families arrive for the start of a 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 trying to escape only for the gunmen to open fire on them a few minutes later russian special forces moved in that the number of victims was high three hundred thirty four innocent civilians died and more than eight hundred were injured in the trades or reports from beslan us it's 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 clothing this is. the shrine a memorial to the victims that a group of architects has been commissioned to sanctify the interior remains essential unchanged from when it was ten years ago that the horrific attack happened and based 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 lead us about of and her two daughters lived through that base long 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 bush right. now would you. given that it wasn't the by the charitable cause of unusual move the money gets to the guys and it's a lot of teaching to the. terrorists took the hostages to the gym

a little later her mother voluntarily entered the building to be with her daughters complain that when you go excluded to vote with nasty to where you got your logic is because our muslim youth adopt not must not come you can put all clueless don't want them to dummy have them. when you cover news knowledge she got to. eat. yes do you get them when she get just because i do see up in my goal of some of the mamas. they stayed in that gym with her father school principal tar can sit down of through most of the fifty two hour ordeal that even the key cheat lie cheat so much the margin keep them stones which would be to put them still in the style and you could have the key to do it soon i'm simplifying is the point if i am suddenly snuggle up we point is that you've lost our cans about of i mean his grandfather didn't survive i see the oh it's all black when you did the rochelle

you did the. 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. and 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 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 we will be bringing you more coverage of the memorial events over the next two days also r.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 in r t international well this is this is a little dated on but you. need to know. is the. need to. think it would be some and there's an issue to go to much of the concern is that yes this was a chimney that moved. most mutual. need to change that nature that it will.

moving to more news 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 rampaging across iraq and syria. and into his speech in parliament. it appears that it's all about given great social forty's and the police more power as david cameron outlined his strategy and getting this law mixed state and he believes to prevent it from going abroad to travel alongside extremists and to prevent those who already have common in fact he would have to give more powers to police officers at the border to confiscate 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 at all where the court's 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 years in the country over the

widespread reach that the islamic state has according to a recent poll by some sixty seven percent of brits of boards 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 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 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 mohamad or he thinks the u.k. should have seen the threat coming a long time ago. firstly the fact that we have these. 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 i mean it failed to intercept the failed around seven seven it's 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 minutes have a domestic policy which is centered around the home office which is mired in controversy

. 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 arthur stance of the style mission ties with kiev and the conditions that need to be met there is a little bit of trouble still to head representatives of the self-proclaimed annette's people's republic see kiev has already refused their proposal for both sides to stop using heavy artillery and warplanes in the conflict talks were held in minsk on sunday here's paula sleeper with more in what was discussed. representatives of the donetsk going to ganske republics 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 regions 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 he 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 the ukrainian army was surrounded by anti-government fighters it was forced to surrender and lay down its weapons we traveled to the front line. the sound of victory after

a week of did these battles is back in the hands of the anti-government fighters of our skin is 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 what. one is brute and 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 they do the resistance stronger the result is that they've suffered to come on to give 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 and 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 move all 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 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 vice eastern ukraine. now anti-government forces in eastern ukraine are on the offensive and it's becoming a part that kiev is military operation there is flying now the area shown in our in cheer on our news map is now reportedly under the control of local militias but the red circles here here and here are areas where hundreds of ukrainian government troops have been surrounded the encirclement is near the town of ill advice right here which was the time that you may have just heard all the reported on with anti

government forces there providing humanitarian corridor to a lot of soldiers to leave peacefully kiev though has forbidden any of its troops from surrendering nevertheless. at least two hundred have chosen to do so saying they've 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 tynes 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 on the east have begun in valorous the vice premier of this so called the nets people's republic who is one of the negotiators has spoken about conditions back home. that will be humanitarian situation is very difficult the aid is this greatly needed. transportation and logistics but they must be supplied preemptively so as the wood complications. the

second round of talks is set for september fifth but already some progress has been made regarding prisoner swaps we'll keep you updated on any breakthroughs that happen in the battle russian capital more news coming 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 as. a reformer mr president we choose diddy's time for him to get. stability and peace to syria is going to be the step.

along the way and ever so after world war one a bunch of european countries just show up in the middle east and draw a line all over the map and say oh these are the new countries we don't care about the history culture well last august twenty fourth and you end up with islamic state or isis. this is our team welcome back pakistan's capital is in the grip of political turmoil on sunday police force a crowd of protesters attempting to storm

a government complex in a slum about it 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 unrest. it's quite unfortunate to see that to you too repetitive military intervention bureaucratic structure and due to corruption in the political and civil and military bureaucracy. democratic institutions can develop and flourish and that has actually we couldn't do pretty practices what we see in the recent days that is actually a manifestation of people's lack of confidence in democratic practices and a new really a recently more recently elected government has has been put into such use to situation which you won't actually do any good to the democratic situation to predict that this is in pakistan rather i mean if as the stated military intervention so yes there are easily warning sign did you lose

a lot of concern about it to own all the government to be able to sustain. that for decades the u.s. has been spending hundreds some billions of dollars on its nuclear arsenal but with the spate of scandal surrounding the units responsible for the thousands of warheads and the needing infrastructure questions are being asked over they security of the world's deadliest weapons guy niche account takes up the story for us. 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 story charges 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 his personal cell phone says part of the 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 and you know 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 years. their awful. what is great about them

is that. the hearing or is it that you can connect when you make a call. i mean you can hear in the other person only other into the 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 would cost the country about. three hundred and fifty five billion dollars over the next decade but there's something about this story that's important which is that every time the us 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 leg 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 say in washington i'm going to check out our team. much more waiting for you on our web site right now including the search for a ghost ship british royal time missing for several days is located by south like near the u.s. coast on our team dot com find out why the vessel with its hundred million dollar cargo has been avoiding detection. also online the north korean government goes ballistic over a british t.v. drama focusing on the reclusive nation's nuclear program pyongyang calls it a quote slumbrous farce find out why the show is called such anger on our website. there's a menace lurking in europe's hustles which brussels green army is determined to get rid of the high powered vacuum cleaner as of monday europeans are not able to buy five teams 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 job done well it's not the only appliance which have got to rise on up to thirty other high soul gadgets or in the firing line in the coming year from kettles to her dryers the new spark mixed feelings of public buying and among consumers some rush to the shops to snap up the remaining high powered vacuum cleaners while others took aim at lawmakers needlessly poking around people's homes. in one way they're paying atonement to the koreans to under the deed 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 deep down 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 day it 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 know no bones they will keep going until the point in time when the public says no. there's been another win for the euro skeptics this time a german party has won its first parliament seats following an election in the state of saxony and has its sights in other provinces the alternative for germany group already has seven euro m.p.'s party member hugh bronson explains what his group wants to achieve in brussels. the main issues that our seven representatives in the european parliament want to address of coals over the three points one of goals 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 boston to let's say the border to ukraine. secondly they want to reduce bureaucracy and the spending the uncontrolled spending of taxpayers' money that goes to brussels last but at least they want more democracy more her end. of the world's most ambitious gas pipeline projects which will link russia with china got a festive start yesterday of wasn't russia's forty streatch in us construction of a 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 by applying that will carry the natural resource to customers here in russia and all the way to china as well in maybe moscow and beijing signs
