it will be. at the start of. the. hall and then we go this. down but there were. several american soldiers are wounded as an afghan soldier opens fire at a military base in northern afghanistan. calls intensify for the u.k.

to battle the prime minister to resign as crowds protest outside downing street many there are criticizing to reason made for spawn's to wednesday's deadly tower block fire. there in st petersburg it is half time in the opening match of the confederations cup we can tell you there has been a goal but which one is the gong suspense join a surely for outstanding coverage of the confederations cup here on r.t. . there from in the team in the r.t.e. news center in moscow my name is col embrace and saturday night seven here let's go to our first story which is in afghanistan a development in the past couple of hours according to a spokesman for the country's military there four american soldiers have been wounded in an attack by a rogue afghan soldier at a base in the north of the country the assailants being shot dead the u.s.

is only said that several soldiers were injured in an incident as they put it dismissing earlier reports that american soldiers have been killed here's what we heard earlier from a journalist in kabul. and afghan soldier used the rocket propelled grenade during a military exercise on the way to the shooting range or the shooting range and according to this officer several u.s. soldiers were wounded this comes not long after afghan commandos killed at least three u.s. soldiers in the eastern province of mangalore are the base where the incident today took place is where at least ten attackers killed more than one hundred forty army soldiers in april in what was a massive security breach you have to remember the taliban are expanding their area of recruitment from where the afghan police in army recruits so the risk

of afghan soldiers or new recruits being turned into taliban infiltrators is really high. like now to what he has a research analyst at the center of conflicts and peace studies welcome to the program at the journalist we heard from earlier talked about how there are some traumatized afghan soldiers in the reasons what could have led to this green on blue attack or do you think it's a taliban infiltration. thank you for having me you know looking into taliban spring offensive strategy for twenty seventeen. insider attacks be it green on blue which is afghan soldiers killing the. nato forces or all green on green which is the afghan forces killing afghan forces is the key element within their new strategy for spring offensive. but no so far there is no claim of responsibility or no word from taliban claiming that this guy this

perpetrator belonged to the taliban or had linked to that. this is this is you know when we had the previous attack in that chain. posted photos and said. that perpetrator that attacker was one of them but in this case they have their side and the only prays that he was. he was a true muslim and praise the attacker but to be to tell you of the background of what these attack happened or why they were happening twenty twelve and thirteen when the record of the internet. was at its peak you know there were several motivations for afghan forces one was the infiltration where afghan afghans were sent to carry out these attack the second was co-option where serving military police were recruited by the taliban for whatever motivation sometimes because

their family were living under taliban area or they were provided some and incentives the second best personal grievances which i believe in today's attack it could be that personal grievances and i remember when i was studying into the similar cases in twenty thirteen and twelve you know there were several attackers who would got frustrated with the behavior of back in the ice our forces now and they need to receive that support mission members you know in one instance i remember clearly where the attacker was. trigger was triggered to carry out the attack after seeing the american forces eating colon burger while afghan forces were fasting in the summer in very hot weather in the south so i believe this is a personally. put it this attack is due to personal grievances against the nato

forces is there anything specific about this location though because as you said it has been a target before. you you see i mean. the nature of this of this attack is it is very different yes you know like i said taliban are trying the most to turn their messengers you know they always had their missing jer's or infiltrators that would only pass information from the afghan army or the police to the taliban but in twenty seventeen the taliban strategy is to terror and those missing to actual attackers but yet there is no sign of this attacker was had links with the taliban there's another reason they might be and that the reason as well you know when they were in the past even when there was one that attack one insider attack it would encourage other afghan national security forces well to do the same because force for money they would become heroes

and particularly in ramadan you know the afghan for the afghan national security forces believe that doors heaven would be open in we interviewed in the past those those perpetrators that were captured they would believe that in ramadan the doors are open so they need to take this how to become to go to heaven so these are like cases yes the north is one specific. case here you know afghan taliban are increasingly focusing on the north in particularly how can these are interested in the north you know i was looking into the taliban areas of pinterest and i have found out through my sources and research that the haqqani network is interested to carry out. to carry out more attacks in the north so this can be one on one example but this is to create a trust deficit among the afghan forces and with their international partners at

a time where the americans are increasing their troops really appreciate putting all this into context for it is still very early days as you said we don't know who is actually behind this as yet it's still very early on since this news. for now though as army from the center for conflict and peace studies in kabul thank you very much. the. crowds of protesters are gathering outside downing street in london as calls grow for the u.k. prime minister's resignation many see to resume a position is untenable following her party's election upset and reaction to wednesday's grenfell tower fire and which we know at least thirty people died and to see a church in a report from white hall. we're right outside downing street where if you can see hundreds of people have gathered to protest against a recent me government this was originally intended to be a protest pressing the issues following the election lots of people have been saying they're unhappy with the snap election that's recent made holes in the following coalition that was formed. and this was the original reason but since the

tragedy with the grand ole tower where as you know force thirty people confirmed dead more expected to be announced and really hundreds left homeless following what rubble there people are saying this is becoming the final straw for the unhappiness of following the decisions that this government has been making because a lot of them who have been gathered here today are saying that what happened with rumsfeld was some of it was deal with the u.s. territory measures that had been carried out for years now by the conservative party is certainly lots of calls for i am serious they're saying they want the real numbers of how many people have died there seek the death police much larger and are not telling them enough there are lots of concerns about whether or not this could have been prevented considering some of the material used in the reconstruction works that were carried out and what happened. by many here as

something that's just a symbol of the huge disparity that exists here in the u.k. and in london between the wealthier and those who are a little less well off well to reason may's plans for an alliance with northern ireland's democratic unionist party in order to form a working government all of the reasons for today's protest while he's going on the ground today takes that on with northern ireland chin fine m.p. chris. any dealings between unionism and tory governments have been bad for local people and for ireland since you know one i think a tory government has never been a good thing for the people of ireland specially the people of the north of ireland we look at our communities devastated by tourist early i myself was a government minister last year i seen the effects of tory a steady on our budgets but the real public anger and the real public anger the d.p. in the assembly election just in march the d.p. lost a number of seats up to ten seats that they lost it was real public anger so you know we see in this we now see you know shadowy backroom deals and that's why there

needs to be transparency what it was talked about here because let's be clear with this the tories and tory policy have been devastatingly bad for the people of ireland since two thousand and ten tourist areas taken a billion pound out of our block grant you know it's a public services are being punished here and the d.p.p. need to be very mindful of. in the wake of the tragedy the prime minister allocated five million pounds to help those affected by the fire however polly boyd the report's criticism of to reason may continues to mount especially as she seems to be adopting her rivals campaign calls. when your own ideas fail just borrow your parents. no one and no community is left behind doesn't that sound a lot like this no one and no community is left behind and this no community and no one is there behind this nobody and no community should ever be

left behind in fact jeremy corbyn used that throughout the labor party leadership race last summer he even used it to launch labour's election campaign for the general election perhaps treason may thought that borrowing a labor phrase would help attract some extra support given how badly she fadden has self-imposed snap general election a vote in which jeremy corbyn went from zero to hero. like a political chameleon to reason may has borrowed more than half a share from the right as well in the run up to the e.u. referendum she was a quiet remain but this was back then. people say the e.u. does not make us more secure because it does not allow us to control our border. but that is not true we would all voters but we want our country back the new role

for ourselves in the world as a strong country with control over our borders. the single market accounts for a huge volume of all trade look at the facts the potential risks to jobs for our economy if we were to leave the european union the framework of the single market i would say is a beginning but you must be optimistic about what i am proposing cannot mean membership of the single market nigel farage accused of stealing. all his policies by getting britain outside the european union controlling immigration and helping small businesses and four years old the british prime minister was running on exactly the same ticket while thrilled to ukip supporters flocked to join the conservative party when public opinion skewed the right to resume a adjusted her speech and her ideas to fit the agenda when it swung back to the

left so did her rhetoric it's textbook electioneering but as to reason may's disappointing results at the polls have demonstrated relying on it too heavily may do more harm than good poll ratings are now as low as jeremy corbin at the start of the snap election campaign that's not deterred the labor leader from borrowing some of the reason may's campaign phrases but only for a law i'm going to show you all move forward to world during the queen's speech just as soon as the coalition of chaos has been negotiated. possible the labor party stands ready to offer a stronger. politico r.t. london. well football spotlight is on russia right now as the first match of the twenty seventeen fifo confederations cup underway right now in st petersburg the

tournament team is there will catch up with them in a few minutes. chorus of the younger generation is that if they buck the trend and go against the status quo it all endangered their prospects in life and so many of them sell out basically get jobs in the city or on wall street and they don't continue in their use fall exuberance for many enough years to make it a permanent solution a permanent movement but now not to belabor the point but now with things like crypto currency this generation can bypass the entire financial infrastructure and create their own financial realities. i don't see clear out accounts throughout the do that anyway i always see that. figure is good

for today more all. you have. for one brief period of time and then you know divorce immediately i feel that's. bad historical moment to be released and it is very difficult to predict how things will be called. again the opening match of the twenty seven hundred fifty confederations cup is underway right now in some pages but we're going to go there live with neil harvey and form a in football a stan collymore we've got the latest. he's continued coverage of the confederations cup is called he mentioned the opening

game russia against new zealand is well underway there just into the second half a year that has been the opening goal of the competition alongside me i co-host thank all the most and we talked today about the need for the for the host nation to make a positive start they have done just that they lead well know that he's going to call for the goal talk us through it they have the dominance of the game from start to finish even in the second half of play you just see there just a little ball of the goalkeeper is a very good steel you can hear in the confederations cup on the world cup next year the word pressing that wings trying to steal the ball as far up the pitch as possible to get it out of the opposition that's exactly what russia did and bush because they're just showing a little bit of bravery to the ball in bricks is good we're just lifted out of the new zealand people after so it's been a bit of a hero for the all whites he's made some sensational sides those for real sure do deserve that yeah the marine division has made an awful lot of saves it could be much worse for new zealand i think at this point denise because she coughed what a season for him he's been russia's footballer of the year it is well deserved

though it may have been corner of the corn a chance of a chance for us absolutely and like i just saw a change in the fun zone or the margin that the blue church piper has been late in the fun zone kate what's the atmosphere been like since that all should go. hi guys i don't know whether or not you can hear me what we have to do is move to the very back of the fan sites so that we can get some scientists you can imagine the noise here is really quite something particularly after she said that he's good shut off school that goal in the first half and ninety's it lit the blue touch paper i think it's also like to be a cake series while there's plenty of beer flying when it is off to rule the city of culture and just before we had kick off in this very very merry and happy of environments we spoke to some of the fans and they were anticipating a very good sort of it as well. well we came to russia happy that. it's amazing what you have here and your history. of. details that there were still

there were so we wanted to know your country. and i'm very much excited. to see our. well i guess you could tell by some of the yeah the cheering fans there and i think you were just lucky enough to miss some of the fans will keep past as well you sent me a fine voice as well so when you said you happy environment for the russia for the fans is in the first match of the confederations cup and a victory would probably just kids should i say complete you can hear them a very very happy opening day of the confederations cup twenty seventeen here. yeah great stuff great atmosphere on the phone fun to see the fans and i'm gonna while they think about the action kate part is there for us in the found zone.

studio stan collymore. it's positive been some negatives especially in the media in the build up that the focusing less on the football than what's coming up i'm a more about those allegations which well the allegations there are proven cases of racism in the russian premier league and also we saw hooliganism by russian found championships last year the issue is though all these been overhyped are they being distorted the new zealand herald today published an article saying that russia should never be hosting any major football torrence because of those internet comments or they are going to fall it's not for a comment and it's going to fall in britain to brazil you cry in front of a major tournament. premier league. across the world. needs to come along to the right in a lot of the broadcast in putting. documentary's lead you know to a big tournament. we have sold out a problem in england. once the english. never it's their problem and if you go

there you can have major issues having been to all of those tournament. all the refuse of course they're all there are a few idiots everywhere and particularly. true. in spain. central europe that's the same when it's the same in germany so it's no different in russia but you just see the. most want to go to a fun zone. to enjoy themselves and will be heard confederations cup next year yet if you don't take wood for it i always say speak to the people who go to the mine she speak to the fans live from their experiences also inside the stadium today it's been a correspondent. and he's actually been chatting to some of the new zealand. would have a have to say about their experiences so far. neil just before i go to that i actually don't know why you're not asking me about the full ball and

the fans that are inside the arena well let's imagine you did actually spend the last twenty minutes of the second half there and you know what there's one thing i want to share there was that there were actually some empty seats but at the very bottom and i'm wondering why that was happening maybe some v.i.p.'s didn't make it or maybe. a bit too expensive well we'll have to see what happens but the zone where i was sitting it was actually full and of course full of russian fans they were cheering on and they are expecting a second goal and the second half of course there were no new zealand fans there but i did mean just in front of the stadium i'll tell you what those things that you were talking about that article in the harald i think if i had told them about it they wouldn't believe. me take a listen why. are the russian hooligans on a. russian plane absolutely fantastic.

and the russian people have extended their hospitality. they. found it was very. very quiet. in the center. of the stuff so you know. i think one of the most important things that will happen after this is when the fans go back and share their memories and i guess most of these batteries or maybe even all of them will be nice but there are no british teams here taking part in the confederations cup so nobody is going to be there maybe only. to go back and just say that actually it's been an awesome twenty men and you really got to come here for the world cup in any case if you really think.

a little history lesson for you when it comes to football. when did football related become a problem. but it can be traced back to. much the beautiful game. between. the pigs. pieces of football hooliganism in the modern game. that's when the so-called. talking rival fans. from the sixty's. when rival supporters are both into pulled a knife fights between large gangs of hard cold found so-called friends in the first five years of the decade it was twice as much violence as that the previous

twenty five british hooliganism spread rapidly during the seventy's and eighty's becoming known abroad as the english disease grew to its tragic peak of the european cup final in one thousand nine hundred five when the liverpool fans attacked their italian rival causing a war in the stadium to collapse killing thirty nine people after the disaster in this clubs were banned from pool in european contests the fact is a government sponsored clampdown iligan is by the one nine hundred ninety football related violence in the u.k. gradually began to wane but the reputation stuck when england failed to qualify for the one nine hundred ninety four usa world cup the committee chief was delighted that we know england fans. with three countries in the world whose presence would have created logistical problems so we're very pleased they will be coming with iraq iran and being. in the coming years many key international tournaments where

marred by badly behaved in the. now days football hooliganism is of course not only in english but international disease one that thankfully isn't as prevalent as it used to be. back on the pitch russia continues to hold on for late one over new zealand about twenty minutes or so to go join us next hour we will bring in joe highlights of her any more on the final results here that.

her. thank. god i. didn't mean all right tonight i'm talking about trump selling

off the country and i know that's no surprise you're probably like yeah that's what he does that's of course are you also surprised when a tiger claws your face. or when dennis rodman hangs out with a chubby asian dictator that because that's what they do that's their thing so let's get into it trumps very excited for his new infrastructure projects he's already bragging during speeches if speech is what we're now calling it when life or single syllable words in a row dribble out of his mouth. and on the internal hiding behind the podium in order to refill him with a finger full of liver pâté. i'm also very proud to say that the dakota access pipeline is now officially open for business it was dead. one hundred twenty days ago and now it's officially just opened for business and but open for business he

means that he's leaking oil into the water and the land. the kid has to get the league still oil rigs go in early you want to you want to show the wildlife who's boss you do well listen fellows bieber's fish what have you we're going to be pissin toxic fluid all over the place all right so i don't want to hear a peep out of yeah you just you just get the out of the way ok. but that's not the only thing trump is not telling you one of trump's key advisors is wall street titan stephen schwarzman who happens to be the c.e.o. of blackstone you may not know anything about blackstone but you can tell it sounds ominous anyway right it doesn't like the name the name feels like when i was eight years old and first heard guns n roses welcome to the jungle i didn't know who the singer was singer was or why he so desperately wanted me to. but.
