i just saw i did to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met in photo off those years who god i don't know this but we are not. two more russian speaking children rescued from islamic state held territory in iraq returned to russia to be reunited with their families party has been supporting a campaign to find the youngsters relatives. also this hour. to launch a campaign for independence from spain and are met with resistance from madrid which is threatening to prosecute hundred. internet giant. the leading hundreds of negative reviews on hillary clinton's new book called what happened in which she explains her shock defeat. in the u.s.

presidential election. but over a hundred thousand people are evacuated from public places in russia. twenty four hour news live from moscow to the world this is r.t. international my names you know me welcome to the program we begin with the story of two children who were being reunited with their relatives in russia after they were rescued from i still held territory in iraq it is believed the youngsters immediate family were killed in fighting there here we launched the campaign called bring them home to help authorities trace the orphans relations well this is. deja they were found in mosul it is proving difficult to get information about them

because they are still simply too traumatized to speak or fritz thought the boy was rescued from a basement where he had been hiding with his mother two brothers his sister he was the sole survivor artie first met. in a baghdad orphanage when they arrived there two weeks ago. because of that i need. to get one. at the door. that. is going to show you. a news night to do. it's nice to be a ballplayer mom. well as we heard the children are now

a buck in russian now will soon be reunited with their relatives. was out the airport when they arrived. both children were clearly traumatized clinging to the adults there finally bringing them home a little hug usually kept touching her leg and at one point she lifted up her pant leg and you could see bandages and scars from when she was injured during her time in mosul now we learned a little bit more of young of long story was probably around nine years old he told those that he was with apparently that he was in the basement for a long period of time in mosul surrounded by other kids in terrible conditions and that it was constantly hearing the sound of bombs falling. or. father died separately on was in a basement with his mother two brothers and his sister he was the only one who survived sadly these two are just a few among many many children for no apparent list and alone far far away from home but we have learned that at least for a producer and there is going to be

a happy ending they were shown pictures of their relatives they recognized them and will shortly be reunited. well and choose they and other two children arrived out of buying down or from a chopper they were rescued from the iraqi city of tal afar which was recently liberated from the terrorist. coming up us then the last of you built up my mom. was not. just a little. bit.

because he was going to. move into another headline stories this hour officials in the rest of spanish region of castle many are preparing to launch an independence campaign on thursday evening it comes ahead of a planned referendum which madrid has called illegal on this trying to prevent spanish authorities have already shut down the separatists official website

although it has since moved to a new to me the government has also warned that it could cut electricity to polling stations the country's main postal company has been ordered not to deliver any documents related to the votes. meanwhile more than seven hundred members in the region are facing prosecution by the national government for voicing their support for succession. but remember when a citizen has a problem with justice just one system was the problem not one seven hundred twelve have a problem with justice it's just as there has the problem is in this case a spanish justice system and not the some one hundred twelve because this has never been seen and you know at least in the democratic you are going to everybody. this is a great surprise this has never happened if there were more than seven hundred my united that's why they have called this meeting our unanimous position is to act together

that our priority is to work to guarantee as a referendum. well the spanish prosecutor's office also has announced that it will seize any printed material relating to the election along with the ballot boxes authorities were also granted permission to take action against any individuals or groups promoting the referendum. in supporting the leave campaign are now regarded as all lawful anyone thought and guilty and could face up to eight years in prison twenty euro ban from public office. well on monday there were must gatherings as people voice their desire to separate from space they say the referendum will go ahead regardless if the result is a yes cuts a lonely a will look to proclaim independence within forty eight hours one councillor spoke to says he's ready to face prosecution for his calls. there's a freedom there's about democracy is about the right to decide for follow people

and i think it's really really difficult at the well if how letting people of both democracy and supporting this act of the most closely that i find them could be could be a trick out of it as a crime i believe in in democracy and why i want. to protect to defend them about the rights of our people. and if i have to explain this to the provincial prosecutor i want to have any problem pulled out in the end everyone everyone will realize that what we need is common sense when it is. and when it is to try to calm things down. by respecting and result and by respect the. free will of the people. not if you've ever wondered is there life after losing a presidential election clinton is showing there is nearly

a year after her shock defeat to donald trump she's released the book called what happened aside from a few personal touches on the nic don't stinton set so i had to explain what destroyed her campaign through in more than a few accusations at people countries and organizations which she says cost her the chance so becoming america's first female president a washington correspondents in iraq picks up the story i looks like hillary clinton is back in the headlines promoting her memoirs and giving interviews left and right to discuss what exactly went wrong in two thousand and sixteen when she suffered an unexpected defeat to reality t.v. star donald trump. and it seems like she's compiled quite the lists of exactly who and what to blame or says that word work in two thousand and sixteen russian wiki leaks are proud. i inherit nothing from the democratic party not a democrat jim told me my primary opponent and

a lot of his supporters sexism and the massaging the resentment the stereotype. a lot of people didn't want to hear my plans. for an even more detailed explanation hillary clinton has just released a new book entitled what happened in the book clinton managed to blame everyone and everything under the sun including jill stein. and of course. mentioning him and russia about three hundred thirty three times clinton even leveled attacks at senator bernie sanders for impugning her character but here's what else happened the e-mail scandal when it turned out clinton lied about handling classified information as secretary of state there is no classified materials our investigation found that there was classified information so it was not true let's not forget the constant shaming of supporters you could put half of

supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zx and then there was a major strategic miscalculation when she chose not to campaign in the rust belt losing the democratic fire wall that obama won in two thousand and eight and two thousand and twelve the same voters bernie sanders won over during the primaries hillary clinton says she doesn't plan to run for president again but she's definitely making sure she steals the spotlight with response on. our to washington d.c. . well in the booth clinton goes on to compare herself to a character from the front to see t.v. hit game of thrones with people on able to resist picking up on. they shouted guilty guilty like the really just sounds and came up chanting shane

shane well so see landis and walked back there and. he's basically said he minds a. place to stay a troll no matter. what that he's. having said all this why are not the points i have. did you make another mistake sure so to lose the election without any of the other things. i will say tell me that. you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of for. every

loser. isn't it basically you saying that there's there's nothing you're going to do differently as a way to try to win over his supporters. and let's start from that premise for losing the people. here have the people you think. meanwhile internet giant has been accused of deleting several hundred negative reviews on the new clinton book from their website this is what to say. it's no role to this. view that's helpful or unhelpful in making that decision we do have mechanisms in place to ensure that the voices of many the new drown out the voices of a few and we move customers a. community guidelines. wave of bomb scares

across moscow on thursday saw eight schools evacuated with over one hundred thousand people affected by hoax threats in russian cities in the last week artie's nicky are in spoke to me earlier on this. wave of evacuations across russia due to these bomb scares are not just talking about a few cities in one region of russia we're talking about cities across the country is an immense scale and affecting some one hundred thirty thousand people just in the past two days as four hundred twenty buildings had to be evacuated and what has been an increasingly peculiar week or kicked off on sunday morning in the west siberian city of they received a bomb scare there that evening another bomb scare was reported in the central russian city of resigning from that it's just snowballed and now so far these bomb scares have been reported in almost thirty cities and it's still ongoing they're

targeting areas with high densities of people we're talking about schools shopping malls cinemas bus and train stations and in the subsequent searches no explosive materials or suspicious paraphernalia has been found but what they've been very successful in doing is creating mayhem panic in disorder in these areas with large numbers of people thus far it remains a mystery as to who will water is behind these hoax calls it's believed that the thirds are being made an honest anonymously through internet phone calls and the latest theory we have. coming from sources citing revulsed the russian international news agency are that these calls have been traced to numbers coming from abroad and the individuals responsible have links to i so these are unconfirmed at this point there are other theories circulating such as these phone calls a part of some kind of drew there's also the possibility or very that this is a virus that of course there's also the theory that this is just a prankster or

a group of prankster intent on creating as much panic and disruption as possible in an investigation is under way to get to the bottom of this and then maybe we'll find out what's really the case. work. people are joining our t.'s project nineteen seventeen alive which replays events around the russian revolution through twitter but the bestselling novelist cesar project is one of the most interesting experiments to appear in the social media network and he'll be playing his part in it. what if twitter existed a hundred years ago. so we set up dozens of real twitter accounts in the names of historic figures from vladimir lenin to the russian emperor then from factory workers to soldiers then we turn to actual history diaries letters and memoirs into real time tweets history because i'm a dynamic. counseling by the russian telegraph the fictional media outlet and they

form a unique twitter ecosystem under the hashtag nineteen seventy life. well paulo will tweet for a month from the twitter account of the fed. but tool is also a double agent acting for both germany and france there is just a month left before she meets her fate you can follow her and many other historical characters on twitter on the russian telegraph and you can also look for tweets with the hash tag nine hundred seventeen live. the turkish president's riling is nato buying weapons from russian about some stories.

syria. was a situation like israel and palestine is not a country where i meet a lot of people we're told though everybody. is a very serious situation people have been much more to. your

back with r.t. the russian navy house had a number of islamic state targets near the syrian city of war seven cruise missiles were launched from two submarines currently stationed in the mediterranean sea russia's defense ministry say command and communications post as well as a mission to destroy all until recently huff all of. the control the other. twenty forty one syrian. had been holding i thought of defending the city despite severe food and medicine shortages government forces broke the siege on the first of september this year with the help of the russian earth force know that most of the city has been cleared the army is pushing i saw militants from the skirts of the city. president to earn one hundred shrugged off nato as concerns

over unto his purchase of a russian missile defense system he's saying is that his country is taking care of itself and its security. good they weren't crazy because we made the s. four hundred agreement what were we supposed to do for them we've taken precautions and will continue to take precautions when it comes to our security and we'll fend for ourselves who take matters into our own hands there's no other way according to the manufacturers the s four hundred can shoot on up to eighty targets at a time has a range of around four hundred kilometers the deal is proving to be have a worrying one for nato ses the new system is not compatible with its equipment in the country and nato interoperable missile defense system remains the best option to defend turkey from the full range of threats in its region. well it's important to note too that germany a leading nate nato member i was restricted some arm seals to turkey enough

decision and may have been a factor in the country's choice unless we spoke to say i was being left with little choice but to chaperone even if it is roughly what it was. turkey and ankara have to decide on which side they're on but i think the recent government and you know erdogan. behavior has become a little bit volatile and unstable for the region and i think his idea of defining the west does generate concerns and even though he is right he has the right to decide from what country he will buy weapons he also has to understand he's part of an alliance that he has to respect and rules and also regulations that go beyond the fact that he has the right to buy weapons from any country that he chooses and russia is not the alternative to nato for us to fall what turkey is doing search for. defense needs to be and contras because of political reasons can. bring. the embargo.

it does not have from. the. government this before it's all been telling us show some restraint and some stability in order for those embargoes to be lifted it doesn't make any sense if turkey but i think now then it is their problem it is not at their once again i underline this. understand as america remains for turkey number one security partner so russia is now a possible new partner for certain defense systems yes but if that is true if the u.s. is the number one partners security it cannot you can be dealing weapons with a country that is not friendly to the u.s. . just a minute russia is our neighbor. turkey cannot make policies because some of these are not like income american not this is our neighbor. well staying with nato the u.s. is building up its presence in poland with more than

a thousand military vehicles of them four hundred are tracked including nearly two hundred tanks and an entire infantry division as part of the existing nato forces in eastern europe well the u.s. general heading up the european deployment it's in response to drills which start today between russia and bella reuss adding that a deal is needed to a lot of the free movement of troops across europe similar to the e.u. use open border shain gandee agreement now that would allow u.s. units to the ploy on nato members territories without the country's permission but only five e.u. members are said to back the idea meanwhile american troops are also taking part in sweden's biggest military drills in more than twenty years our rora seventeen is taking place on an island in the middle of the baltic sea here's miguel francis son to go on why the neutral nation feels the need for such large scale exercises not. there is a video out there on sweden that peaceful beautiful land full of green fields good

food and very generous social programs. but actually this video turns into something hard and heavy right away turns out it's promoting the largest military exercise of the past two decades. of war. he added and that you and i think some camps seventy two small let us down see the whole. economy at them not on good books that he and. i. and not just any exercise but one designed to deal with a quote

a larger sophisticated opponent that one will approach from the east nineteen thousand participants just from sweden alone as well as military forces from eight other countries have joined these drills called arora seventeen and you guessed it the united states is also there the united states with their allies and partners are doing this this is normal business for us that's going to be our posture normal business we train all the time we work soldiers work always to be at the highest level of preparation not alert but being prepared that's that's our job that's what you would expect us to be ready just like you expect the fire department to be ready at the hospital to be reading very nice business as usual but not for sweden it's getting back it's mandatory military draft which was canceled the two thousand and two. now in twenty thousand at least four thousand swedes will get the call all

in the swedish military is now going to enjoy a nice growth in military spending for the next few years even the low key swedish resort jewel of gotland with its sandy beaches and intriguing limestone has been introduced to the swedish military they've been stationed there since two thousand and sixteen and still to no avail no attacks have come from the east but wait a second there was a russian spies submarine alert a few years ago the scandinavian military went full swing into a large scale search mission in the end it all turned out to be nothing but a fishing boat seriously so now this week's military are staging these massive drills to make sure they can protect the nation from an attack which they themselves deem i quote unlikely seems like an overreaction i wonder what is that about perhaps stockholm taunting a thread that doesn't really exist as sweden's favorite album once sang that's the name of the game at least when it comes to russia media france and thiago r.t.

. alas swedish peace activists we spoke to believes the country risks becoming dangerously militarized because. with nato people are upset with me to their agreement because it's one more step towards militarization of our foreign politics and we. are very dangerous component which is nato there's no scale that is necessary according to me. it will be twenty thousand to ten thousand is not really the question i would say that military exercise of do not make so make of it make us safer i think that we are going in the wrong direction i would say that. a large group for nato in sweden i mean this is a lot of money to be made from armaments there's a lot of money to be made from getting closer to nato there's a lot of political careers that can be done from playing on that. movie about

russian tsar nicholas the second house whipped up a storm of protest before it's even hit cinema screens it's erotic scenes of people who wanted burnt but that sparked a row over free speech as kate partridge explains. a film about the love story between us on the coast the second and the battery now has unleashed a standoff in russia and it hasn't even yet been released. but you still think that it's a. good thing. the film is called matilda after matilda. the real life love the last saw before he married but protests against the film have hit the internet the streets and even

call even in playing a tiny attack on a skier says it offends orthodox believes as it exposes the personal life of azhar who's been made a saint by the russian orthodox church you can't touch saints you can show them having sex because that offends the feelings of believers this is not censorship this is about the violation of people's rights opposition has turned violent protesters set fire to cars parked near the office of the directors lawyer threats to burn cinemas that show matilda have resulted in two chains counseling it before release prompting condemnation by russia's culture minister vladimir putin ski to calm down the hysteria any attempts on the ground to ban the release of the film any attempts to pressure private or municipal cinema as a pure lawlessness and censorship that's directly against the russian constitution and with the film's russian premiere still more than a month away the director himself is stunned by the strength of feeling this.
