i was. it was. france moxley years since the deadly terror attack in east but a french magazine comes under fire for printing profit images of the atrocity. the u.s. and french presidents show signs of overcoming some of their differences alter talks in paris however french people voiced their anger at both leaders regardless of their plans. and a new video is a version reportedly showing u.s. helicopters over the city of raka icily a fact a capital in syria washington has confirmed its forces do operate inside the city but only under the pretext of a biased assist and the company. thank

you for watching our international live from moscow which. france is marking the first anniversary of the terror attack in the city of nice the city has organized a large scale tribute to the victims some of their families will be there and president mccall is set to meet them privately later he also appeared at a highly protected central square and shook hands with people in the crowd the event is set to continue throughout the evening. one year ago a radicalised to new zealand man around a truck into a crowd celebrating the national holiday of busty all day killing eighty six people the terrorist was shot dead by police islamic state later claimed responsibility for the atrocity.

it is. easy and living in france the attacker was known to police for several violent crimes. just terror tactics direction lone wolves to rent a truck and drive into a crowd. that forgot it. you won't you will see we are in

a new era and france will have to live with terrorism. well a year on from the attacks some survivors a still recovering in hospital and around three thousand others needing counseling from aid organizations or we spoke to a spokesperson of the national institute for victim support and mediation who told us how they need to help those affected and the law. on clement morial organized by the city of nice is paying tribute to the victims who were never the less worried about attending so we are welcoming them in the warmest way possible we have thirty five professionals welcome is and psychologists who are accompanying them talking to them reassuring them they have a sense of security thanks to the patrols who ensure an extremely well secured event so i have feel safe. i mean. the government has only handed over twenty

five million euros in compensation from the three hundred million that it promised the anniversary has also seen some controversy the latest edition of french magazine pavé match has come under fire over its coverage of the event it published these images pulled from security footage showing the moment the lorry plowed into the crowd the magazine said the pictures were meant to inform the public and ensure the victims were not forgotten however some of the lawyers for the victims have accused perry much of morbid sensationalism there are limits we don't need these shark beecher's to understand the horror of terrorism. when a french court has banned perry much from republic the controversial images however the ruling did not call for the magazine's latest issue that includes the photos to be pulled from the shelves editor in chief of the magazine nuclear they believe paoli match had every right to show the public what happened during the tragedy i

don't think there is reason for a moral outrage obviously people need to know that the french public is allowed to know also body much is. basis its readership the shock of photos of course they have said we believe them that they would never show a fortress right to recognize the people there will keep the dignity of victims of course interact i think it's very good because the public even the press doesn't know now. how this guy came on to call me that this all play with a struck why shouldn't i much publish these photos they day will respect the dignity of the victims for sure well meanwhile u.s. president donald trump has wrapped up his two day visit to paris on thursday he held talks with his french counterpart emmanuel michel and today he was a special guest at the best day parade in the capital and it seems the two leaders found it hard to say goodbye.

jimmy nothing will have a separate the presence today of the american president by my side mr donald trump

and his wife is a sign of our friendship which has enjoyed time. it's going to be just fine because you have a great president you have somebody that's going to run this country right and i would be willing to bet because i think this one of the great cities one of the most beautiful cities in the world however it seems the french public don't particularly care about warm relations between the two countries and charlotte has been finding out that around to two thousand people have turned out for this protest against from and against i'm not quote they say that the two presidents are creating. a society and that's because north just trump is here in town and many people aren't happy about the fact that he's been visiting paris people describing him as being a racist in this so jim is not happy about some of the comments he's made about france in the past say that province's. in some parts is no longer paris because of

the amount of immigration here in the country but also against president michael and his plans to make a big reforms of the labor code here in france but this summer basically president mcconnell said that he wants to change the labor code because he wants to make bronson who productive he wants to reduce unemployment one of the ways that he wants to do that is by changing the working conditions but the people here say by changing the reason working conditions what they do is actually a road to the rights of workers completely and they're unhappy that they so i do know flexible working they think to erosion of society and that's why people have come here to protest against my own and against trump today in paris show that even ski nazi paris. they were paris and los angeles are currently fighting for the right to host the twenty twenty four olympics and emmanuel mccaw seems determined to get france across the finish line. the very day macron officially took office he

couldn't wait to make his olympic charm offensive a priority was it right with you on your venture for the olympics paralympics in the twenty twenty four checks. both the twenty twenty four and twenty twenty eight games are up for grabs but the paris and los angeles is all about who gets what year and to macron it sames getting first place is a big deal bigger than usual for a head of state he's already made his pitch in switzerland an unusual move for a country's leader who normally only make an appearance at the host city vote which is not until september trump was absent while the poll paris man who spearheaded the french bid before macro to grab the reins was noticeably eclipsed by a president we hoped to stage and then there's the campaigning has been enthusiastic to say the least showcasing his sporting prowess and trying hard to

show just was an all rounder he is a defender olympic values are values they're under threat and questioned by many people today so it's the best moment to defend. the olympics aim appears to be very much close to macro heart he made headlines after promising to make his leadership style to the tarion channeling the french king louis the great who was himself once portrayed as jupiter the head of the roman gods and of course as the father of all gods he requires a complete pantheon and it seems he's already found his self appointed hermes him and you claim these should be to. him miss. the messenger. as for his patron emanuel just like jupiter these determined to get what he wants in this case is very open and pick masterpiece. france's police unions though have warned they might not be able to provide the necessary level of

security for an event on the scale of the olympics and they're blaming budget cuts more than five hundred million euros worth of savings are being planned next year the policy is meant to bring the country's budget deficit in line with each new limits or police unions are threatening to join mass protests planned for the autumn. now a new videos emerged reportedly showing u.s. helicopters flying over the city of raka in syria which i still considers to be its capital u.s. backed syrian rebels started an operation to retake the area back in november and last month breached the walls of the old city and now the pentagon says its military advisers are also operating inside the city to support local militants however washington has not revealed the number of u.s. troops there but a coalition spokesman has previously said there are not hundreds. who ryan dillon also said forces in iraq or are more exposed to any contacts than those cheering the battle for mosul in iraq he claims the troops are in syria on an

advisory in assisting and accompanying mission and says american troops call in airstrikes jaclyn vinegar takes a close look at the history of train and assist operations by its this train those are all the tags you always get when the pentagon tries to explain what american soldiers are doing in iraq in fear for years and assist in training aspect advise and assist in training mission. training equipping. the company and assist train equip bonds and assist in the company and our partners on the ground so let's break down those terms that often fall like a bunch of cliches actually mean very specific things train and equip that's how it usually begins but sort of like a boot camp when u.s. instructors provide local forces with arms and train them that approach was taken in theory a while back but didn't prove to be very effective can you tell us what the total number of trained fighters remains were dog and four or five let's recap it buys

and which is what troops were tasked with doing in mosul and that means more engagement is true that we're operating closer and deeper into the iraqi formations are partners are fighting the enemy and we're supporting them with our advice and assistance we are very close to it if not. already engaged in that in that fight and if you add a company to the end of advise and assist your flying to an even higher level of involvement by u.s. troops and this is the cost of cation for the u.s. soldiers involved in the rocket assault. interestingly enough those who are inspiring long range artillery are still regarded as advisors i think there's a big difference between authorization of war and sending a few hundred advisors so what the addition of a company to their mission u.s.

troops are practically escorting the local fighters to rocka well there you have it the next time you listen to the military officials you can decipher what they really mean are to you washington d.c. . well there are a number of u.s. backed forces fighting islamic state in the area among them are kurdish units which were joined by female fighters a few days ago they say their most important duty is to avenge my sil violence against women in slaved by the terrorists of two five thousand women are currently being held they have been reports of slavery right while some have also been sold among the goals are children as young as eight one form i saw a prisoner who was badly injured by a landmine while trying to escape showed her how rowing experience and a quick warning you may find her account disturbing. the village the two girls to moses and the two car mothers and the women to tell a far we don't know what happened to them after that the one who took me to iraq

and syria she was in iraq and i stayed for a month and from there i tried to escape twice but they caught the need both times and they beat me badly and they did dirty things to me after that he sold me tonight. the man. that she sold me to one more man from mosul was a bomb maker she beat me too and she was forcing me to help him in his job making suicide car and belts. the women describe a life of hell i saw wives paint a very different picture we spoke to some who shared their stories. i saw that there is no sex jihad everything is just according to the more you go to the city hall and it had already been married and your husband got killed and you just got married to another man.

and you know i'm a muse i'm from lebanon i'm twenty years old i met my husband in tripoli life was hard and so i got married early i had my first baby at fifteen and the second one a year later then my husband joined a salafi group the members of the group introduced him to the idea of jihad and explained to him that he needs to go to i so he persuaded me that there is nothing bad there and i trusted him as he's wife so it ranged all the documents and join him in syria. but then my mom told me i have to go back to tunisia as my husband was killed but women told me why don't you get married a second time her deja there's one disabled man and he's looking for a wife don't you want to get married and i read.

that many men love to use it to girls more than their wives just imagine for example a man gets himself a girl and as time passes he begins to love her more than his own wife and treats her better and if this is it it converts to islam he will be able to marry her mad . do you get this it means she will become free go wherever she wants she won't be a slave anymore in this case is this clear. a russian family has been detained by turkish security forces and the country's border with syria is thought they were trying to join iso in the conflict torn country. reports family we're talking about here is there's a father and mother jenny. and they were traveling with their two young daughters and what they did was they told everybody that all their relatives there go on vacation and anchor out to visit cousin of course that didn't happen then they went

missing about one month ago and the relatives then organize a search and eventually notify the turkish authorities who detained the family now the search was organized by ex-husband because she was traveling with their six year old daughter lisa so he hopes to take lisa back from spot line up and that's when an altercation happened at the airport. where you. know. it was. so after the altercation happened a turkish police intervened and that's when their family has been detained now what we do know about this case according to. relatives is that her behavior apparently changed quite dramatically over the past couple of years yes according to x. father in law met her new partner and the family converted to islam her behavior

started to change drastically here's how he described it i knew you. would change the religion to islam and it seems to me the most radical branch of it will be to stop. using computers to stop so you can the daughter to kindergarten and the. changed the social network profile pictures to pictures of. mostly war. scarves on daughter among muslims that live around here have never seen children wear in these black scarves and it's really interesting what he says then we've seen the cases that have come to light in the media similar kinds of behavior but at the moment do we know why exactly. they tried to enter syria or is the change in his behavior do you have signs of extremism but we don't know for sure if that's what led to their trip to syria but what we do know is a for a lot of those who tried to join us live and try to enter syria they do use

a similar route and in fact there's a recent case in russia twenty one year on moscow's student she tried to do the same using a similar enjoin as i'm saying that's been confirmed and that is wise for a story is potentially alarming but like we've said earlier there's no official confirmation on this yet we don't know exactly why as far as family travel to syria . an attacker armed with a knife has killed two foreign tourists and wounded four others in the egyptian city of her garter the russian consulate in the city uses a russian woman is among the wounded has been arrested and is being questioned by police egypt's foreign ministry says a preliminary investigation suggests the man swam from a public beach to the territory of the hotel where the assault took place. well the motives behind the attack and not yet clear however local media site eyewitnesses saying that the assailant was targeting only foreigners and shouting to egyptian is to stay away that information has not been independently verified. her daughter is

a popular beach holiday resort the incident comes despite tightened security in the country after a series of attacks this year while in january twenty sixth in two suspected i saw militants also stormed a hotel in regard to stabbing three foreign tourists. now it's feared israeli palestinian tensions may reignite after a shootout at the temple mount one of jenin jerusalem's holiest sites three palestinians armed with homemade machine guns opened fire on israeli police killing two offices journalist anna reitman has more in israel the spokesman said that the three assailants were killed after they fled to the temple mount and they have been identified as residents of which is near the port city of haifa a disturbing footage has emerged of the incident and security officials are trying to determine how the weapons managed to get into the area and how the assailants

managed to get the weapons this included a handgun two rifles and a knife it is the second attack at jerusalem's old city within the past month the temple mount has been closed to the public after the six hour will the temple mount was last closed off in twenty four but it's the first time in seventeen years that friday prayers there have been canceled the al aksa mosque which is part of the compound is law third holiest site palestinian religious officials have condemned israel's decision to counsel the prayers of the israeli president argued the move was made for security reasons adding the status quo of the mosque will be preserved . also on friday a young palestinian man was killed in clashes with the israeli army during a raid on a refugee camp near the city of bethlehem the israeli defense forces say they opened fire at suspects who were throwing rocks and using explosive devices according to the palestinian health ministry the eighteen year old died of his injuries in hospital shortly afterwards. when we watch

a palestinian child who's lost an eye off to israeli security forces opened fire earlier this week the thirteen year old was playing on the balcony of his home when police began shooting in response to clashes in east jerusalem and hit him in the head. let. me. see. below about an israeli soldiers came and started shooting in the air to the left to the right side of the houses my son said let's go inside a small safe there and as they were coming in the bullet hit my son's eye and face who loved playing football he had loads of hobbies now he's asking me all the time can i do this can i do that. i can show you video of the police response in east jerusalem jury in which the boy was injured we contacted the police to get their view on the incident and this is what they told us. as police arrived in the area there were stones and objects thrown at them the units responded by using

non-lethal weapons later in the night a local resident was taken to hospital with an injury. there are non-lethal weapons the police have been these are the non-lethal weapons the police have recently been using one teenager was shot dead by this kind of ammunition in twenty fourteen more than twelve people have lost an eye palestinian teenagers have suffered from alleged abuse of power at the hands of israeli security forces in the past. i think that it is our view about it that. the.

now moscow says it may retaliate against washington's continued refusal to return seized russian property in the u.s. or allow more russian diplomats into the country daniel hawkins has more. diplomatic scandals are as old as time itself and tit for tat expulsions of diplomatic workers are usually part and parcel of these events though this story dates back to december last year on the presidential election the outgoing obama administration allegedly to punish russia for those allegations of meddling in the u.s. election decided to expel thirty five russian diplomatic workers and learn only that also to seize their diplomatic compound that's quite a big move in the world of diplomacy now at the time quite unusually president putin decided not to retaliate at all he said he'd rather wait and see how things would develop with the new incoming administration in fact he famously handed an olive branch to washington inviting the families of u.s. diplomatic workers here in moscow to celebrate christmas the kremlin it seems now

that moscow's patience is finally running out today the foreign ministry spokesman there is a horrible made a statement describing what could happen next the problem of the border it's been half a year but we do not see any concrete steps from washington to resolve these issues however nothing impeached a new administration from showing independence and taking steps time is running out we do have ways to retaliate the personnel in the u.s. embassy in moscow greatly exceeds the number of our embassy staff in washington. thank you now both marias are of. the presidential spokesman have made very clear that this potential move is unrelated to any other differences political disagreements that the u.s. and russia may have it's linked purely to this ongoing scandal and they've also tried to very much emphasize that these measures this issue rather is flexible it's not set in stone. iraqi officials say they're investigating reports that

troops have been executing suspected islamic state fight as the allegations were brought up by human rights watch off to a series of disturbing videos emerged on social media he one of the on verified clips many in uniform are seen throwing an unidentified person off a cliff and then gunning him down human rights watch says the footage was filmed in the city of mosul which was liberated by u.s. led forces earlier this week the head of the middle east and north africa division at human rights watch says iraqi troops seem to be operating with impunity they do match in a sense that we've been documenting for many months now actually do show executions by the security forces both federal police forces as well as far fewer vocalization forces there are really many many iraqi soldiers executing suspected isis militants torturing and abusing family members of

suspected isis so sadly i have to say that these are not new or surprising but we have repeatedly raise our concern u.s. government employee command operations and little else really for example about very many of us is that we are continuing to document iraqi forces to date we have never see the iraqi government actually hold any soldiers secure level or of these abuses that have been documented. well these latest allegations come just days after another and geo amnesty international blamed the u.s. led coalition a thousand civilian deaths during the battle for mosul the u.s. state department spokeswoman was grilled on the issue by reporters on thursday the reason that i'm asking and the reason i ask you know like this is that it seems to be and this is not just something that unique to this administration but for many over the course of the last four or five thousand of those regions when amnesty or

another human rights group group comes out with a report on a country that you don't like their life north korea or syria you are and they don't consult those governments when they do that your words you guys accept it you know and you even talk about it and praise the reports from from the podium and say this is you know we can't we're like chemical weapons in syria but when they come out with a report that is. in a country that is about it i'd just say we want is all set on that report like hartmann of the families puts together a very thorough humanitarian excuse me a very thorough civilian casualty list this is not a case does not a situation where you accept reports that if you like the results but do not accept imagine i'm not going to characterize it that way at all ok i think we've been over this now if you don't have it then. coming up next on r.t. watching the hawks takes a look at the latest trump russia conspiracy theories.
