world news this hour emergency services in the iraqi city of mosul continue the cleanup operation pulling hundreds of bodies from the rubble of the devastated city . the destruction the city in ruins already show you probably also heard about the thousands killed. suffering what you would likely have heard of is the smell. of fourteen civilians including children are reportedly killed in a saudi led coalition air strike in yemen. an american newspaper claims the country's right wing and even neo nazis are getting inspiration from

russia. in the team here the center and mosque in one is called embrace now two pm as for world news this hour a first for you months under a barrage of bombs the iraqi city of mosul has been almost leveled the u.s. led operation to liberate the city from my soul has been declared a success but the human cost is inconceivable it was once home to around two million people in mosul to witness the aftermath but a word of warning that you might find the content of the following report upsetting to watch kept this up for a needy ten months. u.s. led coalition and the iran. he's won but you can still smell the ashes

this probably won't shock you the destruction in mosul a city in ruins it's already been shown you've probably also heard about the thousands killed the civilian suffering what you will likely haven't heard of is the smell it's noisy eating repulsive and it's everywhere the sort of smell that makes us in stink these sick the smell of rotting bodies. the sickly odor permeates near the entirety of the old city under the rubble are hundreds and hundreds of corpses jihad ists as well as civilians families this is what rescuers have collected just this morning three suspected isis fighters two women and two children this is again just the first few hours of

this warning from buildings right around us and they're still not done all of them most of them are women and children they called this a victory you would never think the smell of victory would make you rich. the next five. covering the market even the collection plate of what was. it describable this is what they do day long day route did you see a bullet not that. it's hard work in more ways than one there are booby traps and exploded jet bombs rockets shells and munitions and the bodies decomposing in the. sweltering heat.

there was no precision these was cop it bombing annihilation hundreds buried under rubble hundreds blocks in basements starving choking to death it will take months to dig up all the bodies months more of trauma. what i see here makes me cry you can bring anyone here and they will break down in tears because we are all human beings. there are some things. like the fact that he and many have trouble sleeping. and no wonder. the rule. of corpses. from mosul iraq battles said to be the largest urban conflict since the second world war displaced eight hundred thousand people they now have no home to return

to meanwhile humanitarian organizations are warning of another looming catastrophe this time in the neighborhood city of tal afar the u.s. backed operation that is being compared with the mosul campaign both cities were key strongholds besieged by u.s. backed forces just like mosul thousands of civilians are trapped in tal afar under a barrage of bombs all those trying to flee being caught in the crossfire the ones who do remain have no access to food or of a basic supplies. it

took centuries and centuries to build it in what one of the sort of so-called not so smart bombs we destroy in few seconds i don't think it would be rebuild ever as it was evidence of people's memory people's culture or people's livelihood. it was the only. thing. i don't think actually the american led coalition and the iraqi government had any excuse. if we see god forbid the diverse station that had before lynn. would repeat itself and that would be really crime that would be criminal. a saudi led coalition air strike on the yemeni capital sanaa has

reportedly hit civilians medics there say that at least fourteen people including children were killed in that bombing and we should warn you that the pictures that we're about to show you are upsetting to watch. oh let's try and get up to speed on what we know so far a middle east correspondent paula slay joins us hello there paula this only came to light a couple of hours ago what we know so far. well what we do know is that there are at least fourteen people who are confirmed dead although this number is expected to climb and this follows a suspected saudi airstrike overnight thursday into the early hours of friday

morning to say that they continuing to pull bodies to residential buildings this happened in the southern neighborhoods of the capital afsana in what is distinctly and residential area there are no military installations they have whatsoever most of the people that say they are pulling are women and children now this comes amid escalating tensions in the country we managed to get some comments from some of the civilians on the scene. they targeted this house in the middle of the night why would they do that there were no soldiers or officials there only civilians. there were families in this house women children. women and children. now this comes after the united nations launched a probe into another suspected saudi led coalition bombing earlier in the week that happened on a hotel in the capital and in that incident some forty one people were killed many

of them also women and children it comes against the backdrop of a diet humanitarian situation that has really just been getting worse since the coalition began its strikes back in two thousand and fifteen there are thousands of people who have been killed there are millions of people who are starving without access to basic necessities we and the one of this has led to an outbreak of cholera we are hearing from the world health organization that they have some hoth a million suspected cases of people suffering from cholera that they are aware of we're also hearing from the red cross which says that some fifty seven percent of people don't have access to clean water and roughly the same number of people are suffering from famine so certainly a diet humanitarian situation in yemen as we witness yet again strikes almost in a multiple conditions for those people there what for now thanks for bringing us up to speed on that all middle east correspondent paula slayer. joining us now live in yemen. who's

a journalist in my country thank you for joining us on the program both of the strikes that our correspondent mentioned this latest one on the woman earlier this week both hitting residential areas why are they being conducted in those areas or told you think. i mean it's not like really clear why the saudi keep continue in civilians but it has been happening from the beginning of the war for twelve thousand civilians has been killed by the saudi dialect and they have bombed dozens of. markets funeral home within the whole of the world they have targeted for hospitals doctors without borders and they. have said that i have condemned the saudis so it's clearly that the saudi actually will bomb anything in yemen including airports . and i think their main goal from the saudi target civilians they want to make

yemeni people to to life to give up all to submit. to the saudi. into yemen and i think the main. the main target of yemen is by. today and they want. this. is one of the goal of the world for the united states and britain and that's why we see. the u.k. government keep selling this already included ban cluster bomb which mainly used only as if indians area there's anything being done from where you want to try and exert any pressure on the saudis in order to try and reduce the civilian casualties the u.n. has already shown its fury of the nations i was well humanitarian groups have been rounding on the saudis for months if not years now about the damage that's causing civilians what's being done to try to make the saudis take notice. i think all this. nation from the n.g.o.s and all the help some time to get into

yemen it will not stop the saudi as long as the saudi is getting a full support from the united states as long. as. jet fuel in the saudi fighter jet over yemen to continue their war as long as they keep selling weapons they will not do anything then they will keep targeting civilians will remember that. there was a draft engineer to conduct a full investigation into yemen for all crimes done by all parties and it was blocked by the united kingdom twice so nothing will be done unless they will stop selling one to the saudi. remember that the war have started with a statement from washington that statement was from the saudi ambassador there and it was not just a vote statement from from riyadh so this show you that there was a green light from the united states for the saudis to conduct this war on the only

thing that will stop it either from the united states or its yemeni army ensemble of the who the fight will take it will take the step of the fight into saudi if they seize cities like niger and i think they can have full pressure. on the saudis as well the u.n. role in yemen was really really bad because even by that this over the last year. it was both on a list they called it blacklist for killing children it was bought by the by the united nation but with the pressure from the saudi the u.n. secretary general at that time has withdrawn the saudi name from the that list and he said that the saudis had better on us and they threatened that they will they will cut the funding to the u.n. so this show you that all the funds this already given to the u.n. is like a bribe for them to cover up all the crime done in yemen because i will wait to see if the u.n. probe will make any difference put it on some particular political powder river for now we have to live with. yemen thank you very much for your time.

next the us media is busy trying to find out who's inspiring the divided sides in american society these days so now a new article in the washington post suggests that the far right is being guided by russian influence jaclyn because got the story russia is used to being blamed for all things sinister in this world if it's not hacking someone that it's being labeled authoritarian or just flat out criminals but few have stooped to suggest russia backs nazis until now the washington post claiming the nation that lost more than twenty seven million people fighting fascist germany with every family losing loved ones is a source of inspiration for america's neo nazis now you'd hope such offensive claims would be backed up by undeniable facts but sadly you'd be wrong the article kicks off with a couple of flashy quotes one from a former k.k.k. imperial wizard who calls moscow a key to white survival and then a white supremacist richard spencer for whom the kremlin stands as the most

powerful white power in the world which yes sounds bad but these men will use anything to promote their agenda so how is that russia's fault when white nationalists claim inspiration in america's founding fathers as they do does that suddenly make george washington a nutty sympathizer and what about through after all he's white and powerful too and were sponsored they found a way to drag our tea into it as well and his wife would welcome this geo political analysts on criminal unfunded outposts so just see and sputnik and while spencer yes did appear on our t.v. the post gives the fact that after his hail trump salute he became persona non grata here and was never invited again unlike the us media. and that's not all wait until you hear what other nazi crimes russia has committed in twenty fifteen some petersburg hosted one of the most outspoken gatherings of ideologues europe has seen in years now it seems

a shame to ruin the paper. arius but the event was not state sponsored it was organized by one party not even the russian parliament with white nationalist gathering in charlottesville just a few weeks ago does that suddenly make the state of virginia a safe haven for nazis no one but sure one right wing form in the country obviously mean russian evil knows no bounds and after all no one else's house at such an event. we love. our motivation comes from the heart. say an american black walked into this room that person or more and when to all of us and any of us is to each other well we're in the dark now so let's keep digging what else you got washington post kremlin mouthpieces of ensues yes dickie promoted the views of american neo nazis and white nationalists what is that even based on and i save the best for last the article even ties in the recent tragic events in

charlottesville none of this is to say that the carnage in charlottesville is directly attributable to moscow we have not yet learned of evidence the mystic terrorist is spelt prove true kremlin views so why stop there if actual proof is unnecessary you also don't have evidence that he likes to watch disney cartoons but he probably does and most of the heroes are white but really who needs proof when it comes to blindly attacking russia these days. r.t. washington d.c. . other media outlets go even further suggesting that russian intelligence is using hate groups to escalate the situation inside the united states however despite all the conclusions the article admits there is no evidence that russia is supporting american extreme right groups media unless lionel shared his thoughts with us. russia is the hotbed of or the preferred country of neo nazis it's absurd first neo nazis are looking to russia neo nazis

did they ever hear about this thing called world war two do they understand how historically that doesn't seem to make any sense if you ever meet a neo nazi all you have to do is ask said nazi explain not says i'm too me and they can't answer it and the reason why many of them can't answer is that the nazis that we saw in charlottesville were basically actors that were handed a swag bag here you got us lies they go you get an iron cross and you were given twenty bucks of bus fare in a box lunch or dinner you're a nazi americans number one do not understand who these people are is also a more developing world needs to come a shia mosque is under attack in the afghan capital we'll have the details on that and also hopefully talk to someone in kabul after the break.

it's called the feeling of. everyone in the world should experience. and you'll get the old the old. the old according to just. one else seemed wrong but old old just don't hold. the old that you get to shape out these days to come out ahead and in again from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. choose to look for common ground.

welcome back gunmen have stormed a shia mosque in the afghan capital kabul during fine day prayers blasts were reported and a woman has reportedly been taken hostage the standoff is ongoing right now security forces are at the scene of course they've cordoned off the area let's go to kabul now we can talk to afghanistan based journalist. program you're in the city details a bit sketchy at the moment what can you tell us about what's happened there. this is an ongoing situation afghan special forces from the crisis response unit or they're trying to board at risk you worshippers of possible

hostages specially female worshippers but also killed militants that's according to a special forces commander that i've been speaking to they're very chaotic scenes afghanistan's tolo t.v. and many other t.v. stations are live you can see. worried family members relatives you can also see the security forces in the area we're being told at least four attackers were involved in this attack at least two of them were wearing police uniforms so we're still waiting to hear more from the police unfortunately it seems there aboard casualties and fatalities according to multiple police sources at least eleven bodies including women and children were taken out of the mosque as they said this is still an ongoing situation so we'll have to wait and hear more any indication yet as to who the militants are. we don't know. in

the past the islamic stared hard at tact mosques board here in kabul in the western province of herat we saw a joint attack by the taliban in the northern province of sorry paul at least that was confirmed by the united nations here so we'll have to wait and see in the past days have attacked afghanistan's shia. communities it does have the hallmarks of but so far i can just confirmed i'm still waiting to hear more on that because you said it's an ongoing situation when we come back to you for now though bill also aryan couple in afghanistan thanks for updating us. next to the influx of migrants to europe has been blamed for the increased threat of terrorism on the continent so now we have politicians have come up with a plan to deal with it the president of the european parliament says he wants to

establish a unified across border intelligence service similar to america's f.b.i. within the block to fight against terror he emphasized that member states must cooperate much more we spoke to who work for british intelligence and she believes the rhetorics just another vanity project which won't work. so it's distrust between intelligence agencies they want to keep their sources close to their chest and there are different approaches to how intelligence agencies worked within each country about what precisely those intelligence agencies can actually do legally within their own country so trying to find common standards i think is going to be incredibly difficult across the e.u. i mean we're looking at countries going through and right across to to poland to hungary it's a sauce spreads of territory it's all spread of history and it's all spread of different legal systems i can't see how this can work it sounds like another eighty's honestly project the international criminal gangs of very effective

working across borders and we are not keeping up and it's absolutely useless for london or paris or anybody else to say we can deal with this on our own they can't we've got to go to have a european force this is the next logical step and should have been taken some years ago and the question would be who's going to be the boss who's going to run the f.b.i. for europe will it be a german or will it be a brit or will it be a frenchman or an italian will be huge argument about that what uniform will label what language will a operate in because overall of of simple work to do to hammer out the differences we've got a lot of catching up and swallow our nationalistic pride and be good federal europeans ok that is your world update for now where across those developing stories in both kabul and yemen i'll update you again in thirty five minutes all you can stay up to speed at outing dot com.

but. the ship the plane. it was suggested. and a fairly strong one there were two thousand. in the study it's a very extensive study done by a well respected scientist. do chemicals that the advertising really increase the risk of cancer known to infuse damage in the launch into

a shed skepticism. that this is is true by independent scientists so did the industry. and station for my time as well as the others why is that the meat lobby. didn't like what we've been doing and if you want to learn more you'll get a definite on. your. back. is a big business against health. as it started. greetings and salutation. well mark watchers it appears that the fossil fuel industry has

been taking a page out of the tobacco industry playbook when it comes to public health and public relations. shocking shocking according to a new peer reviewed study by researchers geoffrey soprano and mail me or the. or use big oil conglomerate exxon mobil has been making some rather explicit factual misrepresentations to the public regarding the effects of fossil fuels regarding the effects the postle fuels are having or have had on climate change in the dryly titled study assessing exxon mobil's climate change communications one nine hundred seventy seven to two thousand and fourteen the researchers used a social science analysis method to examine one hundred eighty seven documents including internal memos peer reviewed papers by acts on scientists and advertorials that ran in the new york times advertorials in case you're wondering are those cute propaganda pieces put out by corporations and political groups that

look like news articles but are in fact advertisements for their products or belief systems essentially they're the appear to me of big news but since corporations do it i guess it must be ok to all those pearl clutching fake news gatekeepers and an op ed for the new york times the researchers exclaimed that roughly eighty percent of the companies academic and internal papers again the climate change is real and human caused but eighty one percent of their climate change advertorials in one way or another expressed doubt. like i said how very big tobacco of them heard this story before well it started watching all. of. that i got.

well the watch and. i robot interrupted on top of the wall and so yes exxon mobil apparently knew for a long time that climate change was that they were helping fossil fuel industry was was helping you know cause it mitigated make it worse but not telling the public about much in fact telling the public the exact opposite of that are you shovel. x. special they're so concerned about the environment a big oil company lying to people about its product. was so obvious now i think that that's what's so surprising is that after years and years i think the brand of exxon to any of the.
