arrived the other part of this scandal that's rapidly growing is the cladding so the material used on the outside of the building which turned out to be extremely flammable the government's been checking to see whether it's been used anywhere else in buildings in the u.k. and to resume a spokesperson has just said that that cladding was used on at least six hundred of the buildings in england alone so that cheap and very combustible material which according to the chancellor here in the u.k. philip hammond is actually illegal to use take a lesson the cloud that was used to run just like a rocket is across most european countries is burned to the united states my understanding is that the clotting in question this flammable plan which is banned in europe in the u.s. is also banned here just after a week after the tragedy the first official head rolled the c.e.o.
10:03 am
of kensington and chelsea council nicholas holgate he's the highest or he was the highest on the elected official at the council he's been forced to resign by the government may said that's a good thing that he's lost his job all to reason may has already apologized for the way that the government handled the aftermath of the fire and also the failings that brought it about but a lot of people here it's been calling on to reason made to resign the support on the ground for families in the initial hours was not good enough. people were left without belongings without roofs over their heads without even basic information about what happened what they should do that was a failure of the state local and national to help people when they needed it most as prime minister i apologize for that. she comes out here and says that you know maybe. i think.
10:04 am
when they. make. thing after this massacre they could just buy people and everyone's going to shout serious say you know this is an injustice and laws need to be trying. to pass so getting away with this sort of. thing to reason. for these. people in the parliament. part to play. the deadliest in britain for more than a hundred years broke out last wednesday it was only extinguished more than twenty four hours later the death toll currently stands at least seventy nine people is expected to rise as well the reason why governments have been widely criticized for not doing enough because of the fire is still unknown we spoke with a number of analysts who believe this incident is part of a much wider issue that brought people on to the streets in protest. i think it
10:05 am
also symbolizes london which is now very very divided in terms of inequality where the vast majority of people here do not benefit from the wealth which is invested where there are not free flights which are staying. where we have people on the street in every locality but i'm afraid to reserve my has lost all credibility after the election i don't think very long most people think she is only here because the different factions in the tory party deciding where now to get rid of some of the key problems in particularly in london right across the country is an absolute shortage of social rental homes and what that does is they're not fees to talk kinds of things for example in fees through into the way that people interpret housing homeless people can't simply get social housing because norm is no that can't be counted because it's not available i mean really the crisis is so bad that it really does require much larger scale public investment in council house
10:06 am
building again. a matter of belgium's second largest city of antwerp says almost six hundred potentially radicalized people are currently being monitored by the authorities of those nearly two hundred are believed to pose a significant danger is more of what the mayor had to say. i would like to be able to have my police officers conduct more patrols and nowadays we have a policing strategy that's more manageable you basically we can carry out surveillance but we've placed restrictions and i would like to have more powers in this respect liquid in him as a mayor i would like to have more options for when hate breached in certain places little see to enable us to do better police work would be mean and shut these people down if necessary new law will lag behind events or laws and with you and it's hard to explain to the public that you had your eye on a terrorist before he did something but couldn't take action you couldn't and let's get out of that and we just six months europe has seen eleven terror attacks with
10:07 am
plots falls on average every nine days it's acts of left up to fifty people dead and more than three hundred injured there around sixty thousand potential suspects one of the latest incidents in europe occurred in paris what an attack around a car full of weapons into a police van he appeared to have a firearms permit despite being on a terror watch list the french prime minister expressed his concern at the revelation. so sort of no one could be satisfied that someone who's been officially flagged can benefit from this authorization to carry arms certainly not me so the attacker who was on a terror watch list had a permit to carry arms and the prime minister is not exactly happy that's that it seems that the terror threat is not causing so much shock nowadays becoming a rather common thing on average every nine days and twenty seventeen a terror attack was attempted across the e.u. while eighty four percent of brits now believe that the attack on british cities is a very likely that's not really surprising and after the mayor of london had this
10:08 am
to say to the public. so what else is part and parcel of living in a big city well now that everybody's ok with the thought of another terrorist attack being imminent some businesses to decided to grab the opportunity to cash in like with anti terror insurance which has the potential to be a three billion dollar industry and isn't growing demand anything from a liability for businesses reputation which has suffered after an attack so the obvious def insurance payouts then there is more like an anti terror adjudication like they say you can be too careful so perhaps taking one of these terrorism awareness courses could be of help here are just some of the things you will learn after completion recognizing unusual suspects of course identifying an explosive device and even techniques on abbey taishan during catastrophic bleeding no time to
10:09 am
take courses no problem take one of these pocket books with you while you're on a train or a bus there is a guide for grown ups and now a guide for kids not a big fan of reading no problem they've got you covered so their needs and they can help you be more. open to create is a concern that people caught up in an attack may not be clear on how to respond in the immediate. aftermath when every second counts more bile apps for the whole family some are free like the citizen aid app while others will cost sure but the bottom line here is how ethical is it to charge for this stuff or even make an industry out of it i would probably go along the line that if we continue with our training with our support. and hands meant of our resilience to these scenarios she the fear factor of a terrorist assault becomes less we all have different modeling and how we create the product and what we want to try and do with our training is to try and round
10:10 am
off that fear so lost is not completely normal we actually accept it and we deal with it in a robust manner and save lives today the number of terror suspects arrested in new you has doubled since last year rising for the third year in a row and it looks like the trend keeps gaining strength so it may be that everything terrorism related will most likely become a new business nish to invest in the gulf answers and jagow r.t. . over to syria where the u.s. led coalition is conducting a major offensive on the city of rocker its islamic states de facto capital in the country over the un secretary general antonio good as has expressed concern over the loss of civilian life during the operation you said he remains alarmed by the human suffering throughout the whole country you warn that civilians are being killed injured and displaced at a terrifying rate gutierrez added the situation in the city remains particularly grave with people trapped inside and facing threats from every direction. the
10:11 am
secretary general is particularly concerned about the perilous situation for civilians in iraq where trapped and face threats from every direction the united nations and humanitarian partners are doing all they can to stem the suffering and rucka and across syria often at great personal risk the secretary general made an urgent appeal to all those conducting military operations in syria to do everything in their power to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure as fighting continues in iraq and elsewhere. no calling to u.n. estimates since march at least three hundred civilians in iraq have been killed as a result of u.s. led airstrikes however the coalition claims it has caused less than five hundred deaths in total over three years of its military campaign it's reported the coalition employs seven full time investigators monitoring civilian casualties there an increase from just two earlier this year or more been took to the streets of new york to find out how much exactly people know about the plight of civilians
10:12 am
in iraq. if you live in america and you follow the news related to syria here's what you've probably been hearing lately you've heard that the u.s. led coalition downed a syrian government jet because it was moving into the deescalation zone of al tam why they say that this syrian jet was posing a threat russia is obviously not happy now what you probably haven't heard about is all the civilians who died as u.s. led coalition forces are moving and rocca you probably haven't even heard of rocca you heard about what's happening in iraq i know. now. you heard about civilian casualties in iraq oh. i had think i have heard something about that we have a video someone talking about it here it is at the end of the battle when the war planes come they strike multi-storied buildings where the terrorists are but they're also civilians in that house how can the plane strike then more civilians died than terrorists so civilians were either helping eisel or being used
10:13 am
as hostages or as protection against u.s. armed forces so that they wouldn't attack that house in order to get to ice so how are we supposed to take care of that and not kill innocent civilians if indeed they're innocent secretary of defense matters he says that's two billion casualties or a fact of life in this sort of situation do you agree with that oh no not at all you know all life is precious you know and nobody dies really but that's the line they use always and it's in reality there will always be some civilian casualty but it shouldn't be if that life you know for someone sitting in a desk chair in washington to say that it's very difficult. you know i think it's a very delicate political situation some of the reports that have come out say that more civilians have been killed than i still fighters but in surprise made all.
10:14 am
specially because there is no they're wearing a badge says m i six white or right and they're there we have your breasts like civilian so how can you always tell me who's who's who and it's been a big thing of the friends in the military tell me like you have no idea who it is until what they're shooting at you now that this is a prize they say that as many as three hundred civilians according to the u.n. have died since march. oh yeah i mean if a sixteen is ten and strikes a day that's a treaty expected but again because i think they're making it a fact of life so it's become normal ice age has become part of life and once again like i said all life is precious and civilian life shouldn't have to parish for whatever. the reasons we have a reason to be by is the hands of our government based on our conversations here in manhattan it seems that average americans aren't really aware of what the pentagon is up to now as u.s. coalition forces are moving in on the city of raka civilians are dying bombs are
10:15 am
10:16 am
the feeling of. every the world should experience. if you get it are the old the old. the old according to josh. that. come along for the. french president tomorrow micron says he doesn't want to see a repeat in syria of the mistakes made in libya intervention there which france was a part of is widely regarded as having fueled global terrorism on to charlotte has this report from paris. almost gave
10:17 am
a suggestion that there could be uncomfortable times ahead for the two countries the u.s. and france which have been historically very strong allies the historical conflicts that the u.s. and france have been involved in together particularly in libya where he actually said that the intervention of nato allies france and the u.s. alongside other nato allies in two thousand and eleven which eventually helped lead to the removal of colonel gadhafi was actually wrong a mistake and he said that he doesn't want to make this same mistake in syria. france did not participate in the war in iraq and this was right but it was a mistake to enter the war in libya what are the result of these two invasions destroyed states in which terrorist groups thrive i do not want this to happen again in syria president mark owen said that he now believes the removal of bashar al assad which has been called for by france in the past by his preterist sesay. is
10:18 am
now not an absolute priority he basically said that he's been given no evidence that there is a viable successor to ensure that syria doesn't become as what he described a failed state as libya and he also said that the key now is to ensure that terrorism is the top priority and he's called again for this issue to be dealt with by a coalition of countries coming together and he said dealing with terrorism because that he says is the most pressing issue in today's world a professor from the catholic university of live on drawn brick wall believes france is no longer willing to follow interventionist policies taking a more holistic and a more good disposition namely that transition have as it's called to intervene in the internal i feel for the state and over. time so i think the time of the neoconservative human the right alliance if you can call it late that which has been in favor of so-called humanitarian intervention the regime change and son i
10:19 am
think that. my core might be more on that line but it appears that he is not even and i think also you must realize that unlike the united states deep state in france by and large or poor as to these policies of change and intervention. of a french president has also lashed out at donald trump running his policy making as unpredictable it comes as the u.s. state department has made a public you turn on trump's ticket or rhetoric with a spokesperson now questioning the gulf states blockade of doha policy shift becoming something of a trend for the administration. and up. trying to hold the trumpet ministrations every move can literally leave your head spinning take for example the crisis the state department stands as of tuesday is a demand that the saudis back their claims qatar supporting terrorists now that it's been more than two weeks since the embargo started we are mystified that the
10:20 am
gulf states have not released to the public nor to the qataris the details about the claims that they are making toward qatar but late two weeks ago trump didn't seem to be mystified when he said qatar does sponsor terrorism the time it come to . good to know are spawning. and its extremist. ideology and the tweet term even credited his trip to the middle east for spring on the decision to split with qatar struggling to follow logic so my but maybe that's just how the trump team works everyone gets to do what they want for one the defense secretary can make decisions about sending more troops afghanistan without asking the president to understand it's my responsibility we're not winning in afghanistan right now the biggest non-nuclear bomb ever used in combat is dropped in afghanistan no need for presidential approval we are so proud
10:21 am
of our military and it was rather successful at that if you walk around. everybody knows exactly what happened the u.n. ambassador the secretary of state am going to show advisor can say different things about key international issues within the span of just a few days getting assad out is not the only priority and so what we're trying to do as agi of obviously defeat isis there has to be a degree of of simultaneous activity is so i think we have to learn the lessons of of the past and learn the lessons of what went wrong in libya what would you choose that pathway of regime to use for we don't see a peaceful syria with assad in their government planes in syria are being shot down without any permission from the commander in chief what i do is i authorized by military we have the greatest military in the world terms famous beautiful armada is heading not in the direction he thinks it is we said that it was heading there it was heading there it is heading there but maybe all this confusion is exactly the plan i don't want to broadcast to the enemy exactly what my plan is and let me
