hello you're watching on t.v. international with me rosano good live from moscow thank you for joining us. now on sunday a ceasefire brokered by the u.s. and russia came into force in southwest syria after six years of relentless fighting people across three provinces have finally enjoyed a relatively peaceful day. now. that maybe i will need to give it a. little time in the. bahamas plus all. the

syrian cease fire came as an unexpected breakthrough following a meeting between president putin and donald trump on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit in hamburg emily sue has the details following the first face to face meeting between president trump and president putin the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has announced that the u.s. and russia has agreed on a new cease fire in the south western of syria that would take into effect at noon damascus time on july ninth take a listen to the details of this new cease fire zone they discovered you guys up in russia the u.s. and jordan reach a cease fire agreement for syria the ceasefire will come into effect in three areas there are natural and straight or they will come into force on the ninth of july the u.s. and russia have committed to monitoring the cease fire and ensuring humanitarian access to the areas initially security of these areas will be ensured by russian military police and close cooperation with the u.s. and jordan now these three asked southern provinces that lavrov mentioned also

share a border with jordan which is also part of this new agreement however another country that these three southern provinces which i believe can show you on a map on the screen now also share a border with israel and this area includes that disputed golan heights of the stude area between syria and israel and according to the u.n. is a syrian territory occupied by israel since the sixty's and over the recent weeks there has been a so. of quasi border exchanges of fire and this new the escalation zone can potentially avoid such incidents in the future u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson he said this new agreement shows his first indication that the u.s. and russia can work together and cooperate with each other in syria the russian president vladimir putin he also expressed an optimistic tone over this take a listen. regarding whether the u.s. is changed i think it's become more pragmatic in general it doesn't seem to change but there's now an understanding that we can achieve a lot of that from now bear in mind that this is no doubt a breakthrough in terms of u.s.

russia relations showing that the two countries can work with each other in syria however it be too optimistic to see this as a breakthrough of the entire syrian conflict as a whole as you know prior to this numerous the escalation zones happened set up and countless cease fire happening agreed on and both sides have accuse each other of violating them and so stairs there's still a lot of questions regarding the syrian conflict one of the most crucial one being the political future of the assad government. we asked jamal wakim an expert in international relations about the difficulties that lie ahead for the syrian peace process this is still a first step should be tested it's a long way ahead. so i believe that we wouldn't be able to reach a fine of solution for the syrian crisis before years from now maybe one or two years at least because there are a lot of ups that can specialize from the american side that are a lot of opposition to the american president going on from the day he was able to

reach this agreement with them and put them there where the news leaked to the media in the united states of meetings between his. son in law of done on time and some of his aides with russian diplomats and this is a quote from thompson pointed. the first masing between the russian and american presidents was held behind closed doors at the g twenty summit in hamburg this week much of what was discussed was not made public but rather made putin did however share his personal impressions of the u.s. leader often with. us it's a trump and i have established a relationship it may sound strange but trump in real life is completely different to plenty on t.v. he's very businesslike and easy to talk with i think if we continue to work together in the way we did yesterday he will be able to restore relations between

the u.s. and russia and bring cooperation between our countries to a new level however it wasn't only pertinent trump drawing everyone's attention the g. twenty summit saw a lot of new faces as well as old friends getting together. was . that.

while the g twenty summit went smoothly from the aegis of the world's most powerful countries the three consecutive nights riots broke out on the streets of hamburg.

thousands of left wing militants from across europe converged on the city leaving a trail of destruction cars and palls of rubbish were torched shops were vandalized and looted and the rioters also clashed with police over two hundred officers were reportedly left injured on the first wave of riots after the first wave riots many business owners boarded up their windows some said parts of the city resembled a war zone peytral of a fall at the trouble. tensions have boiled over between demonstrators and the

police. i can see the main body of the crowd as i this but the and as they say i'm lacing every bomb seriously so you can see that that really has been is what can you please describe for me what happened where you were well as far as i could tell there were attack in the demonstration with no reason. this is part of a. civil war the violence is all full and i also don't understand the message they want to send me his violence he simply tragic. that is a call some form sportscar belief that's been told shia roaming moments of small bits of violence and the police come in to try and put it out war to come and we used pepper spray was used. to.

hear the crowd chanting away that on sci fi she's the build of on sci fi chants going on old under the watchful eye if we move the camera over here over the watchful eye of a lot of police officers i do you. think i wish to keep a bit vigilant here because we are seeing oh what a what's the us flower being thrown at the police just as you can see there we're actually right between the police and the demonstrators right now so we're going to try and get out of the way just well moment while i'm talking to you not the best place to be it. has a huge call of police officers that's marching through the city then leading the demonstrates is was i think. it's continued on decent over the last twenty four hours now as you can see just behind me it is actually more water cannon

a riving at the intersection where i am. i think they will say a quiet tense scene here just a long time ago with by a number of bottles were being thrown the police responded with water kind of. as certainly a very large police presence a helicopter flying overhead many other emergency vehicles around but there's also an awful lot of demonstrators here. this is the scene in hamburg as you can see a heavy police presence there just marching past me the older came through from police that this this intersection here this junction had to be cleared and there is a section of demonstrators just over there you may be able to see wall to cut in being used every time they try and come closer to this intersection they get sprayed back .

you can see just over here the advertising hoardings have been vandalized there behind me is a bank that was all it was locked up but it's now also been all smashed up over my right shoulder there i spoke to some of the shop owners that are based here about what their plans were some were saying they were going to board them up some load saying they were going to wait it out and stay inside the store twenty four hours a day some owners are covering windows so they don't get broken a lot of places are closed so we couldn't work productively because a total collapse of transportation was in my opinion you can't organize the g. twenty two in a left wing liberal area especially in hamburg which is famous for its demonstrators it is one of the major centers for counter culture in germany one of the major centers indeed for the fall left here just over my left shoulder is a place called the a wealthy floor it's a major hub for left wing groups here and it was from there that a lot of the organizing of these demonstrations originated from of course this area

ending up being web a lot of the violence took place. here bronson from the alternative to germany party told us that given the strength the radical left wing sentiment in the city followers was always very much a possibility. how big is well known for its left wing. sometimes extremist views so this shouldn't have been a surprise for anybody really but i believe that two groups of people who actually traveled to hamburg to take part in this one group is very peaceful they want to stage their protest they are perfectly in their right every german has the right to assemble freely without weapons it's part of the constitutional law the second

group. they didn't want to have peaceful demonstrations they were set for trouble you have these i call them demolition tourists they travel from all over europe and all all of the germany to take part in a protest that is bound to be violent that is bound to destroy shops looting of supermarkets but they had no interest whatsoever in a peaceful protest and sadly this small but very violent group is now attracting all the attention of course the peaceful protesters are upset because this is not how you should stage your prostates your protest should always always be peaceful to be heard. in the past few hours firefighters have been tackling a huge blaze at london's historic camden market which is one of the city's most popular attractions the roof and first three floors of one building have caught fire according to officials some seventy firefighters and ten fire engines have been called to the scene part of camden's main street has been blocked by emergency

services although there are currently no reports of any casualties. now in other news this hour the iraqi prime minister has traveled to the city of mosul of former islamic state strongholds to declare victory over the terror group only a small pocket of militants now remains and they're expected to be defeated soon the development has been widely celebrated in the media but it is not often on the show that we can break good. news about iraq but today is one of those days the country's prime minister arrived in mosul today to declare a great victory as he joined his troops to celebrate in the city they've lost many comrades along the way but today the iraqi security forces were firing their weapons in celebration claiming victory over their right. the iraqi military with support from the u.s. launched its campaign to liberate the city from ice a last october during the operation human rights groups raise serious concerns

about the civilian casualties being caused by coalition forces over the past nine months more than eight hundred fifty thousand people have been forced to leave the area and thousands of civilians have been killed the battle took a particularly severe toll on the city's children four year old howard was one of those who was lucky to survive. it's good to talk to them i didn't want to. name a lot of them on the beach on the other one i had. just one last trip i was opening late in the summer the tough. nut to. fit the i'm fighting. the so silly child the floodlight see above got up on them on monday gunn began a big shit on going to how the pulse of most of that

a bit cool will get tough on minutes from which on the sunny side of a car is hard. to set up. but i need it within me on unity government to come to. a yellow i'm a democrat to have to miss how the name in the in come with me should be in the new . facility to move from should be and. so the other other potential. nonnegotiable i just someone. who won a little bit in money going to come. and look i'm going to been nice to those it imbued him he changed.

human rights watch told us more about the price paid by civilians for the liberation. operation to retake mosul particularly believe it a waste of the city that's been raging february has come at an incredibly high cost we've seen much of the west of the city completely destroyed by ground fire and by airstrikes and we've seen a mass spike in civilian casualties thousands of civilians being wounded and being killed in the fighting so sold in the city has really paid a price for this operation but we were calling particularly on the u.s. led coalition to take more care in the way that it is conducting its bombing campaign and securely the types and sizes of bombs that it's choosing to drop because of these large balls that are being dropped more and more frequently we've

seen a massive increase in civilian casualties on the ground unfortunately the general feeling among the coalition and the iraqi government is that because the momentum to finish the operation has been on their side they've wanted to use all means to get it done as quickly as possible and as a result we haven't seen them willing to for example take certain types of weapons completely off the table so as to better protect civilians concerns are that with these civilian casualties we don't see accountability we don't see american commanders taking responsibility and we don't see compensation for the victims. c.n.n. found itself at the center of an internet rao this week it tracked down the crates of a clip featuring donald trump wrestling the channel's logo the video was tweeted by the president himself just a few days earlier leading c.n.n. to say it encouraged violence against reporters however the channel found itself in hot water when it decided to find the man behind the mean murder casting of picks

up a story. so this guy makes a humorous little video and then it blows up someone edited it donald trump found it and posted it on his twitter feed i ha it got millions of views hundreds of thousands of likes and many people had the love c.n.n. did not like being laughed at not one bit they launched a manhunt for the original creator of the video what they did is doc saying it is digging up private information on someone or with something and then publishing it can be used for law enforcement for business extortion coercion harassment online shaming and vigilante justice the reaction has been furious even songes way did on the matter saying that potentially what c.n.n.

did may be a crime a multi-billion dollar t.v. network blackmailing a private citizen into not making funny videos about it is not journalism c.n.n. and c.n.n. succeeded they found the original creator and he has since apologized and promised never to make another video critical of c.n.n. channel says when they finally talk to him he sounded nervous as well he might c.n.n. is threatening to publish his identity for all the loonies in the world to know if he ever stops being sorry it's right there on their website c.n.n. reserves the right to publish his identity if he stops being sorry if anything changes isn't that the definition of blackmail well in the backlash that followed the c.n.n. journalist who wrote about the identity of the man behind the clip hit back he tweeted this response to the claims of blackmail saying that the c.n.n.

line was misinterpreted and that they simply meant that c.n.n. made no agreement about handling the man's identity still the damage was done and the internet responded with yet more means bashing c.n.n. . thanks. thanks. thanks thanks thanks. thanks. thanks. thanks. we spoke exclusively to a moderate to full the reddit website from where the clip originated he also just to conceal his identity just say you're the scar on a solo oh i'm the guy who posted the original gift it would be frightening if i

were him and i received random phone calls for him e-mails from seeing mail out of nowhere i would not be super enthusiastic about c.n.n. one of the largest news communities in the world sunny not boy you can throw us about telling you to start doing what you want to do on the internet policy and has no right to do that c.n.n. has all of the internet against them right now and one organizations attacks freedom of speech and never ends up well for them and make no mistake about it this is an attack on the internet and c.n.n. has formally declared war on it in return we need to hit c.n.n. were hurt and told her every time is yours that you do not approve of by running ads on their network our site right now on the road the people who are pushing the c.n.n. blackmail hash tag on there are exposing c.n.n. for the fraud news network that they are on are doing the right thing. our

washington correspondent jacqueline looks at how the traditional media's relentless criticism of donald trump's tweets may have backfired donald trump hit back at criticisms that his tweets degrade the office of the president by posting an admission saying that his use of social media indeed isn't presidential but rather modern day presidential and while the verdict out on whether that's a good thing or not it's undeniable the man understands the power of the internet trump inspires me and creates me trump uses mediums and his twitter posts take the recent c.n.n. wrestling video he shared which was originally posted on reddit a popular viral news and discussion website that modern day presidential post caused an uproar in the traditional media president of the united states taking things way too far and as an incitement to violence he is going to get somebody killed in the media. might be successful to drum up violence against journalists this kind of behavior to lead to journalist hurt it's no wonder that sixty percent

of americans say they have little to no trust in the media and many are turning to social media to get their information a trend that trump has cottoned onto and when the mainstream media makes his every tweet breaking news they're giving trump exactly what he wants i think you guys are getting played man i think every time he does this you guys overreact and i say you guys i mean the media in general you overreact and you play right into his hand whatever trump does they jump on it in a huge scrum he has used the media the social media is used twitter. and twitter has been around for a while and he's laying everything they've got i don't like the donkey sure it's used to me and they don't understand it and they right now are actually a very critical position in their life because the american public has no faith in them whatsoever so it seems that's how trump when he is a war with traditional media. through the magic of me. are to you washington d.c.

just moments away on all t. the journalists in syria who put their lives on the line to report on the conflict and if you're watching us in the u.k. island it's a look at the democratic republic of congo's rich natural result that have actually left the people in poverty stay with us what. they see the u.s. russia will is this very important. and we need to. make it better there's no question about it we need to cooperate on so many issues on nuclear weapons i'm sure you know on iran on energy on trade. the wealthy areas of the italy going bust and we should save them because they're
