12:01 pm
for me in the tape this friday evening at seven. and this is the news from r.t. international first breaking development the russian speaking children that stranded orphanage in the iraqi capital have now returned home it's believed their parents fled to the country taking the youngsters with the to join islamic state. while the five children have now returned safe they have some are breaking stories of their time in water on iraq all the details earlier from correspondent donald they have been brought to russia to the city of grozny in the russian republic of
12:02 pm
chechnya and from what we understand they're about to meet their loved ones now this whole story really has been an emotional roller coaster for everybody involved pretty much brock's earlier this month when we just launched the campaign when we went and went and filmed to those forty eight children in iraq in shelters we could only hope that someone may recognize them on some of the accounts that we have that we recorded back then they will really soul crushing the absolutely no one is still a don't void don't need. don't. you know air of willingness. i'll go and you'll solution will in the service affected me just get what so does just the topic. and i mean the list. just.
12:03 pm
i need to. see you're still. not on i know more than we know. it all neal. only at. least out on the one only it. was still. but in a school just. hearing more described in such young voices it's just truly heartbreaking what we know about any of these children who have come back to russia well we've seen we've just seen some of them like for example the boy his name and his aunt was in fact among the first people to contact as she recognized her nephew a similar story with another kid called the soon to assault on more it but the
12:04 pm
truly remarkable story is the story of these two sisters had dejan fatima you've seen them in the clip now they look like what like about five the eldest sister looks about five maybe seven years old and their seven year old neighbor actually recognized them recognized her playmates after seeing our video and she showed that video to the grandparents and so that's basically that's how the got in touch with us and so like imagine being this five maybe seven year old tops girl who was taken to another country to a war zone in spent almost half of her life there so just recognizing your form of pass your form of peaceful past is remarkable in itself and so when they were thousands of miles apart their grandparents and the two sisters we would show some of the videos like the ones that we filmed of the sisters and the ones that were
12:05 pm
filmed of the grandparents his little compilation. of their lives. further there if you're the sort of school for sure. that graphically echo might get discouraged. right. mom approach it could mean. the school was really just so. this was a mom when you only have a mom or dad each. and then there's a. new person you. just don't do. it for all of them psychological damage must be irreparable you'd you'd imagine wouldn't you and some of them that we met were in a very bad way but it's not just psychological some of them like for example take this girl marry him she was very badly wounded in the battle of mosul in fact when
12:06 pm
she was just brought to the orphanage she was in such distress she couldn't see her name she could barely see her name really she she was really she was in a poor state but this is this is her story. this. sniper just didn't do that if. it. took it over no matter loss just to go over there to get in there to keep. the quaver. if. you will is close to killing. well she's in russia now as well but i mean still many many russian speaking children they still remain in orphanages in iraq and this ordeal is far from over for them it caused a lot of talking to me earlier meanwhile back in the city of mosul itself where
12:07 pm
those orphans we just saw managed to escape the u.s. led operation to liberate it from eisel has been declared a success despite the inconceivable human cost it was once home to around two million people more i guess they if is in mosul to witness the aftermath a word of warning though you might find some of the content in his report upsetting to watch. kept this up for a needy ten months. u.s. led coalition in the rockies. but you can still smell the ash 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
12:08 pm
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 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 morning from buildings right around us and they're still not done. most of them are. the women and children they called this a victory you would never think the smell of victory would make you rich. for. the next five. covering half of the market
12:09 pm
even a collection of what was. it describable this is what they do day long day right out i don't want to see a bullet now that. it's hard work in more ways than one there are booby traps unexploded jet bombs rockets shells and munitions and the bodies decomposing in the sweltering heat. there was no precision here these was carpet bombing annihilation hundreds buried under rubble hundreds blocked 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
12:10 pm
tears because we are all human beings. there are some things you couldn't sail camera like the fact that he and many rescuers have trouble sleeping after all the sea and no wonder it is to rule a city of corpses. from mosul iraq. a libyan m. army in switzerland is causing outrage over reports that he's preaching messages of hate against the society that's taken him in also one that's been providing him benefits including unemployment payments i spoke to gild who's the editor of a swiss primetime current affairs t.v. program which obtained audio of the m.r. allegedly calling to destroy so-called nonbelievers. we found out that the man who calls himself up would i'm not on originally from libya is preaching hate in a mosque in the city of butte had the audio recording he sings several bad things
12:11 pm
for example they are ask you to destroy them all and get back to his glory bills of found out that he's telling several times to syria or to preach in a private islam is a t.v. station and he's telling also to saudi arabia we are he is a tour guide for believers in mecca we checked the documents on several levels before publishing we had to be very very sure at the moment is interested cation and operate on not only still one of the main subject of the public discussion it is a problem of course that diversity to freedom of speech and the more critique rules or the strong this of an open society of course and hate speech ing is bringing it in danger of course according to the audio recording obtained by the swiss t.v. channel the preacher has called for all the enemies of islam to be punished including jews christians hindus shia muslims and russians and he also believes that those who befriends nonbelievers a cursed let's take
12:12 pm
a closer look at who this is who stirring up anger in switzerland is called abu ramadan he came to switzerland via multi and italy about a decade ago explaining that he was being pursued by the libyan authorities now after being given residency status he since received more than half a million euros in social benefits. again says that it's outrageous for the amount to threaten the society he's living in. never learned to truman or french so it was not possible to integrate him in the top market so it was not possible that he has got to work so he got to this social welfare of course the views are not excluding him it is from the social welfare but he got the money extracted from to society he is preaching against already before the investigation to all federal authorities who are excluding. from the start towards next steps are in discussion. and it's belgian police have launched investigations into one hundred eighty nine
12:13 pm
terror related incidents since the beginning of twenty seventeen that's according to the country's federal prosecutor that means an average of twenty three cases are opened every month with more details here's our europe correspondent peter oliver. the focus has switched away from trying to look at those that perhaps could trying come from europe to go to turkey to cross the border to become what was known as foreign fighters in syria that shifted away now following the most recent terror attacks that we've seen if we look at manchester if we look at what happened recently in all salone are these were all done in house as it were they were done in country and that's why the belgian police have switched their focus particularly if we look at abbas alone a terrorist cell that was uncovered in to the north of the catalan capital there abdel barky s.r.t. was named as the the ringleader the ringmaster the radicalized that within
12:14 pm
a community that was well pretty well integrated and that's why what the authorities are wanting to see is a register of just who comes and gives speeches now the reason for this is of course that a saturday himself had actually been in belgium but before the attacks took place the bombings at the airport and at the and the metro system in brussels what the belgian prosecutors are putting forward is that they want to see a register of just which foreign in a coming into their country and giving speeches i will ask the muslim executive to tell every mosque in belgium who the record most remote to report because. ultimately though this is well it's the belgian authorities looking at the threat that exists and how that threat is changed and looking at how they can adapt and develop their tactics to stop further possible terror attacks this is r t the saudi
12:15 pm
led coalition is suspected of carrying out an air strike on yemen's capital several people have died the full story when we come back. seems wrong but i. just don't. get to say proud to stay active. and engaged equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest street in
12:16 pm
truth to stand the news business you just need as the right questions and demand the right answer. question. hello again civilians have been killed in a suspected saudi led coalition air strike on yemen's capital medics that say at least fourteen people including children died in the bombing and so on friday morning we should warn you that the pictures we're about to show you all disturbing .
12:17 pm
a middle east correspondent paula and i was more on friday's deadly bombing in yemen this follows a suspected saudi led air strike overnight thursday into the early hours of friday morning now rescuers say that they continuing to pull bodies to residential buildings this happened in the southern neighborhoods of the yemenite capital of sana'a in what is distinctly ways eventually area there are no military installations they have whatsoever most of the people that say they are pulling a woman and children. they targeted this house in the middle of the night so why would they do that there were no soldiers or officials there only civilians. can assert there were families in this house women children why bomb women and children now this comes after the united nations launched
12:18 pm
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 our office in yemen has been gathering more information about an asteroid by coalition forces hotel in some governorate on wednesday the twenty third of august in all these cases in which civilians were killed and injured witnesses told the yemen team that had been no warnings that's an attack was imminent it comes against the backdrop of a diet humanitarian situation that is really just been getting worse since the saudi made 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 all 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
12:19 pm
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 fresh air strikes. the u.s. media right now i was busy trying to find out who is inspiring the divided sides in american society these days and now a new article in the washington post suggests that the far right is being guided by a russian influence going to go 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
12:20 pm
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 center after all he's white and powerful too and we're sponsored they found a way to drag our tea into it as well. geo political analysts. 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.
12:21 pm
and that's not all wait until you hear what other nazi crimes russia has committed in twenty fifteen some petersburg goes to one of the most gatherings of idealogues europe has seen now it seems a shame to ruin the papers theories 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 war but sure one right wing form in the country obviously mean russian evil knows no bounds and after all no one else has hosted such an event. we love our race our motivation comes from the hearts. say an american black walked into this room that person really more to all of us than any of us is to each other well we're in the dark now so let's keep digging what else
12:22 pm
you got washington post kremlin mouthpieces of infuse yes tickly promoted the views of america neo nazis and white nationalists what is that even based on what listen to the actual words spoken by the russian president on the issue of not only them if nationalism is understood as intolerance can show even ism to other people it is going to destroy our country which we developed as a multinational multi confessional country it not only leads to a dead end but down a path of self-destruction russia will do everything not to allow that sounds like a nazi leader to you 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 coma insurance bill is directly attributable to mosco we have not yet lou and of evidence the mystic terrorist is spelled prove true kremlin views so why stop there if actual proof is unnecessary you also don't have evidence that he likes to watch
12:23 pm
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. while other media outlets go even further suggesting the russian intelligence agency had to escalate the situation in america however the original article does admit there is no evidence russia is supporting extreme right groups in the united states i took two independent political analyst go but dr a couple of hours ago and he says a sub journalist exaggerated stress and russian angles and their reporting. the journalist responsible for this article was giving his editors the finger because the implication of the of the headline is that russia is justly seen as a center of white supremacy by american neo nazis the. in the middle of the article is a paragraph which undermines totally such a fabricated view of russia and of mr putin he the author went out of her
12:24 pm
way to stress that russia that moscow has the biggest mosque in europe that russia is the second most important country for migrants f. tonight states in the world and so forth and the russia of course is a multinational country with many different. ethnic and religious groups who live in peace this was unnecessary to say but it tells you what goes on in journalism even in mainstream journalism which is closely controlled by rabidly and russian editorial boards like the washington post and the new york times journalists are not necessarily in sync with the editorial opinions that they dictate what they're supposed to write and if they're clever they do the kind of subversive material that they are headed with a journalist of this article has done. that's the news for now thanks for watching money. going to be here in about thirty five minutes to tell you what's happening
