if he does. i. i killed a car rams into a crowd protesting against a white nationalist unite the rights rally held in virginia president condemns the violence on all sides. in other stories this week r.t. launches a campaign to bring home russian speaking children left by their islamic state affiliated parents after the liberation of mosul in iraq. and the trading of threats between the u.s. and north korea sparked international concerns and fears of

a genuine war. you're watching the weekly here on r.t. international. violent street brawls turned to tragedy in the u.s. state of virginia on saturday one person was killed and dozens more injured it all happened at a far right rally over the removal of confederate heritage from the small city of charlottesville a car rammed into a group of counter protesters the driver spin arrested and charged with second degree murder must warn you you may well find the upcoming video footage disturbing .

thank. you. so. far. there's room ready to go. right. intentional tears well we're right now here at the scene of the attack just behind me is where it occurred i think that the atmosphere here right now is so member a but also hopeful everyone that we've talked to has talked about the community here in charlottesville that it's very much so more like a family and that they will pull together and they have all been condemning the hate that happened yesterday most people do feel that those that were committing the violence yesterday were more out of towners than what i've been people from here they said it's a very peaceful town i have with me the headline of

a local newspaper here and there's a very intense picture you can see people were thrown up in the air during the attack as the car plowed down the street people were coming counter protesters were coming up to this alleyway when a car came down through the alleyway plowing through the crowd ripping through the crowd of protesters as you mentioned one woman did lose her life in the attack a thirty two year old heather haier of course the driver of the car fled the scene but he has been i rested and identified as twenty year old james fields of ohio he is now being charged with second degree murder for the death of heather there were also nineteen more people injured in that attack at this point there are still five people in critical condition. in this attack did occur while the city was still under a state of emergency there was a heavy police presence here but the virginia national guard also here in the town of course it's been condemned nationwide quoting from the president he did say that

all parties must be held responsible a comment that many people have attacked saying that he should have been more specific it's very clear who was responsible for the violence in the city. the main reason for saturday's unite the right march with the authorities plans to remove the confederate statue and to read to local least fifteen people were injured in the violence that ensued schools were arrested. makeshift weapons were used in brawls between the far right demonstrators and the anti far protests this in a separate incidents a police helicopter which had been monitoring the rally crashed outside the town and not incident two officers were killed the u.s. president has voiced his concern over the standoff in virginia. we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred bigotry and violence on many shots on many shirts it's been going on for

a long time in our country not donald trump not barack obama. it's been going on for a long long time if the k.k.k. our team were going down there to start a fight shame on them if they were if that was done in the guise of a charity that charity should be revoked and severely disciplined same for the anti for if there are people behind anti for who are are funding it through through charities which i suspect they may be and in provoking violence around the country even in this in a minute sort of passed between the time i was asked to come on the show i walked about a mile through places in new york where there are already protests they do not look very spontaneous to me they have printed flags printed placards you know i think people on both sides are spoiling for a fight here and we ought to think very carefully about what actually happened find out who may be guilty of what offenses best to get them and punish them accordingly

before we leap to a conclusion as to what may have happened. amidst the violence in virginia many continue to blame it on deep divisions within american society and increasingly polarized politics. by spitta by you and i do we stand divided people but i've got to try to respect the people who planted. the democratic leader. one of the reasons i won the election is very very divided nation. and this we can't he lost a campaign to help bring russian speaking children stuck in an orphanage in iraq back home they were reportedly smuggled into the country by their parents who

joined islamic state but have since been killed or fled following mosul's liberation leaving their children behind. mosul was a nightmare charnel house that orphaned generations not just iraqis take this baghdad shelter that we filmed here live the children of i still victims together with the children of i sell fighters. to turn them. off school just. like. these harrowing words touched people's hearts my heart broke watching this story will make a humble but on a slipping will gladly provide for those children should the remain displaced it's

nice country here in australia and the children would be loved. in mixed with the messages of support that we received claims from alleged relatives take little league. let me give you that. even. then there's five year old who d.j. and three year old fatima their parents joined the i.c.l. two years ago and were killed in a drone strike in june tells us their grandfather he says a seven year old girl living next door to him recognized fatima and her deja from a video and that he can't wait to see his beloved grandchildren again more than

a desert and his church. if you're a hero. to me. they're lucky a d.j. or a levy they're old enough to speak. in . foreign. countries ways. but what about the many orphaned children to young to speak much less know their names even if their relatives know them it is only from photographs as an example one woman believes she recognized her grandson in our video by his eyes. some are completely different you cannot

exclude. station national compassion picture. there are forty eight russian speaking youths in iraq orphanages that we know of and that's nowhere near all of them will continue visiting iraq often edges and documenting the children there in the hope that after all their pain and loss these young souls can be reunited with their relatives back home relatives who desperately love them more i guess the r.t. from dagestan russia. well as mentioned we did receive a letter from mark johnson an australian who has offered to adopt a child whose relatives can be found we asked him what's behind his decision. it was. soon as i read it i would cry and i mean we were promised they'll think about

. their laws would very destroy the poor children. in despair. you could still say it's of them being children but it shouldn't be but it should be happy to have them is read about friends and family. the same while the parents abuse the items and just let the bit there be a pot of an opal situation and these children should invade it one of what i hope they got the boys i would be the east all around with a pair of. clothes they're all. and the day the wife. of the little that little boy who. experienced horrors and this is the end of only a couple of years old that was one of the most harrowing beats that i remember and

his description of saying the same the person dog at the end of story all this little boy was i would describe such in the way that stuck with me and. i would never want to be shallow. become to come across things like that. early a day passed over the last week without a fresh exchange of threats between washington and pyongyang over north korea's latest minute military maneuvers. they will be met with fury. ready. to state. maybe it wasn't tough enough. the confrontation between the two nuclear powers has of course provoked a lot of international reaction russia says that the risks of war high in china

warned against quote playing with fire over north korea some u.s. allies also stressed they're not supporting the escalation germany says that a harsh exchange of words isn't the correct response the u.k. stressed that the situation should only be dealt with through the un analysts told us that trump and kim jong il should tone down the rhetoric but this can't be is an ego fight and right now what it felt like was a fight between trump on one side and kim on the other and to see who could make more outlandish statements and the fear is that if somebody flinches if somebody screws up there could be hundreds of thousands of dead people here this is a very real fight this is shockingly dangerous and the last thing we need to do is stand down and start bumping chests and talk about who is the bigger man with the president's rhetoric i think it's it's two leaders exchanging bombastic terms it would be a disaster a total disaster an arms race right on the peninsula even china does not want that

that's why we need to tone down this rhetoric corral in these folks and and try to get them to talk reasonably rather than being bombastic all the time and creating tensions over at home trying to prevent rating received a boost amid the tough talk with north korea his popularity jumped six points after he warned pyongyang would face repercussions one reason why troubles aggressive rhetoric is popular in the u.s. maybe because polls show that more than sixty percent of americans view north korea as a very serious threat but can they actually find the threat on them up on the scale of morpeth asked new yorkers. i'm not scared of of north korea i'm not scared but i'm scared of our leaders are in many countries and how they are behaving they're not asleep behaving in the interest of of the people fully is becoming more of a bird votto than any time you're dealing with an a country that's led by your irrational dictator i think you know even you to

appear for the worst yes pretty threatening and we responded in a threatening way that scary feeling north korea is a threat to the united states i don't think so my paranoid no but i definitely feel that north korea is a potential definite threat i think north korea is a serious threat to the region but not to the united states you point to north korea on this map. there no that's that's siberia ok. there that's that's still siberia. that's that's southeast asia that's you know that's like vietnam. man mark there you go yeah that that's that's north i knew that she would get it and you find north korea on this map of the world all that's australia actual oh well north korea. southeast asia that's cambodia that's. ok so it's here that's australia you're someone that's saudi arabia forget me i'm hopeless it's for

a it's. around here around there yeah you're right that's that's north rim right there you go you got it there you are like it's close somewhere furthermore it turns out there's actually a correlation between knowing where north korea is and favoring military action those who don't know where the country is are actually more likely to want to send troops right now millions of americans are convinced that north korea is out to get them and it seems like those who are the least in the know are the ones running the most scared ok with mop and r.t. new york. city in pro-government fools who celebrate the liberation of a king town in the east of the come to tell you all about it after the break.

just. to shape our. engagement. to look for common ground.

welcome back syrian pro-government forces and their allies to fully liberated the town of in the east of the country from islamic state fell into the hands of jihad is seen may of two thousand and fifteen during the same battle when captured palmira for the first time russia's defense minister says that the liberation of all six now paves the way to advance on to the critical hot spot city. so you think today that everyone is ready to fight and today there are strategic locations such as the resume which i would call a priority besiege feces have been courageously defending it for years now food medicine and weapons to the liberation of the city would be a point in the defeat of us. all ts replied video news agency filmed this exclusive

footage inside also now the last islamic state stronghold in the homes region some fifty kilometers from the border with there is or province which is still mostly under control on things they were trying to explain the significance of the advance . syrian war geography the south east as where the color coded key is least complicated government controlled red vs eisel held black divided by one long desert front line and it's just shifted to the right of a town called no. there's plenty to celebrate for these for with fruit and their commanders saving. edges them closer to their ultimate goal and this part of syria dare as zoar where

one to two hundred thousand people are completely surrounded by islamic state and a few more months the siege will have been ongoing for three years. as you monitor ballet getting the neighbors as isis terrorists raided our house my thirteen year old cousin was staying with us i hid her in a water tank so that the terror. i didn't take her as a slave it was obvious that it's not good is the situation in there is or is catastrophic terrorist from iraq execute civilians in the streets and leave bodies lying there for up to five days i secretly drove my sons out of the city otherwise isis militants would recruit them by force inject psychotropic substances and gives them suicide bombers.

civilians don't have access to regular good to commodities to services planes aren't always able to reach theirs or are actually power the equipment of the third which is needed in the many civilians in trapped inside the city and the soldiers who are fighting on the front lines in strategic terms is the last stop on the way to dare as providence taking control of this province will mean why being out i sold impromptu or production no more cash for the terrorists from. the government troops can also push to the north and if they can we night with fellow soldiers in the rock a province i saw as forces will end up kettle and the geo graphical heart of syria certainly is definitely the beginning of the absolute end of isis in syria where there are definitely two potentiality of

a subcommittee is only fifty kilometers away from that is or retaking that particular city is of vital importance to actually reopening the route on the road to their resort now the other option is to actually link up with the forces coming in from the northwest now that would create a huge pocket of remaining isis forces i think the army will potentially link up with what's left of the other forces and at the same time they will push for their daughter in the quickest to form a new way possible we've seen the syrian army gaining ground and then relinquishing some tough lessons in war geography have been learned. those trapped in there as zoar can breathe momentarily with relief but there's still a long way to go. concerns been voiced about voter fraud in the united states in the state of california it submerged several counties had more registered voters than eligible adult that's according to report done by the

conservative foundation judicial watch which aims to fight for accountability and integrity integrity i should say in law and politics a particular concern was los angeles county back in june county officials there acknowledge there were forty four percent more voters than there should be meaning that california had failed to comply with voter registration requirements you just watch has warned that california authorities could face legal action if they don't take immediate action it is urgent that california take reasonable steps to clean up its rules we will soon with state officials fail to act however california is not the only state with a problem the watchdog highlighted in two thousand and sixteen the same issue in eleven others for the topic of fraud has generated plenty of airtime for u.s. news networks the fiction that millions of illegal votes were cast in the two thousand and sixteen election it is in pure glee a stunning allegation for which the white house is providing no evidence of people

registered in two states they're registered in new york and in new jersey they vote twice you mean voter fraud california allow i believe there was not a four and a us state senator that we spoke to says there can be no denying there is a huge problem. this is a stunning number first of all your dish your watch is a highly respected organization and they have compared the voting record with the number of voting age medicines are there far more people voting then there are people who are eligible to vote and so the system is obviously corrupt it's got a combination some of them are people who have died some of them are non set aside and some of them are illegal there are some illegal immigrants who are being permitted to vote president trump has made the statement that he believes that
