this to see it churkin a reports next then from west london. yet another terrorism related incident in the u.k. a twenty seventeen pandemic of terror with this now the fifth and every attack demands more security measures and public vigilance. following the van attack on westminster bridge they put up concrete barriers to prevent a similar salt earlier this month london's metropolitan police came up with another measure to stop the vehicles targeting large crowds steel spikes road mats to be rolled out a big events but just days after the announcement london was hit by a different kind of attack the weapon this time was concealed in a simple plastic bag and bucket and left on the tube during rush hour cordoned off behind me is the area where the fifth terror related incident to shake the u.k. in recent months took place early friday morning in a train topped with commuters or a homemade device partially detonated commuters described the scene as
3:03 am
a stampede with people running for their lives just what is lost in memory of the baby in the car with mom to men rush out and run run so we all piled off the train and just ran for our lives we were literally running for our lives and i saw for a second i'm about people jumping over what all's well like. to transition with a beautiful bump and going into the steve jumping into over another terror attack has slipped by the authorities but the location this time has left many shocked and questioning where they go from here it's kind of flying that anybody. can do anything they like that we're not taking this that way like let's take let's walk it's kind of scary as authorities investigate this latest incident to see what should and could have been done the attackers seemed to be one step ahead creating a new unnerving and unpredictable norm and marty london. the year ago should be.
3:04 am
living with the threat of terrorism is something that london is just have to accept these days. you won't succeed but you want to fight us we will be collared by terrorists. you will see over the next few days the crease number of. across london. the attempts to. make countless acts of kindness that brought people closer together. and. they continue to be visible patrols around manchester which include the deployment of armed officers .
3:05 am
will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few days no reason to be a law. both. epeat one agency. that is will see an increased number of visible police officers through. the walls it's been another we can standoff over north korea on monday the u.n. security council passed a resolution on new sanctions after pyongyang's nuclear test earlier this month although the harsh of original draft prepared by the u.s. was renegotiated to seal the deal washington had wanted a full oil and that full gas embargo against north korea but the final resolution
3:06 am
imposed only a cap on the country's exports the original draft also demanded a travel ban and an asset freeze against the north korean leader but again that didn't make it to the final draft the u.s. president was impressed by the compromise of the u.n. . we think it's just another very small step. not a big deal rex and i were just discussing. not big i don't know but has any impact but certainly it was nice to get a fifteen to nothing vote but those sanctions are nothing compared to what ultimately will have to happen well it's certainly disturbing to hear these words from donald trump in the aftermath of a vote at the u.n. security council that was widely perceived as a victory for diplomacy the words that we heard from u.s. leaders on the floor of the security council were rather diplomatic and favorable to peace and cooperation at this point we're hearing u.s.
3:07 am
leaders again talking harsh talking about the possibility of sanctions against russia and against china if they don't comply with the new u.n. resolution if china doesn't follow the sanctions we will put additional sanctions on them and prevent them from accessing the u.s. and international dollar system and that's quite meaningful so now we have these words from trump downplaying the u.n. resolution and many people whose hopes had really been raised for peace and diplomacy being victorious well those hopes are starting to dampen now they're starting to be some some fear that perhaps once again we are in the danger of a global conflict or some kind of war breaking out in the crisis in the korean peninsula could be once again intensifying despite what was seen as a step forward for diplomacy and international cooperation this is just another dip on the roller coaster and saying this exemplary week with the war record goes up very high than than maybe this in conciliatory talk some cooperation some diplomacy
3:08 am
and then more threats of military force and it's really hard to know what to make of this yes we do have a positive that the regional u.s. draft was watered down considerably it was acceptable to the russians or the chinese but then we have this fire breathing talk coming from young beginning we don't know what the next step is going to be could be the real question is. going to be when do we actually get to a diplomatic track that allows both sides to step down and to my mind that's got to be something like the double three s proposal that china has put forward the russians agree with but is absolutely oh i accept little to washington it seems in response to washington's calls for new sanctions north korea carried out a missile test then on friday according to the south korean military that projectile reached an altitude of seven hundred seventy kilometers and travel for four thousand kilometers before falling into the ocean and just like the test carried out a few weeks ago the missile flew right over japan triggering an alert on how cato
3:09 am
island but not everyone in japan it seems feels threatened by the launch pad ready to be frank i don't feel like japan is their target is their target is the u.s. that's why the missiles are just passing over japan and i don't think north korea will drop me self directly on us. saying. it's a missile destroyer of strength good because we won't have to go to school only from their home we were raised gently around never taking it seriously however south korea did react to friday's missile test with a military drill near the border with the north one over the south korean president threaten pyongyang with destruction beyond recovery as he described it over the provocations he ruled out stationing nuclear weapons former u.s. congressman ron paul in the week spoke to us and said washington should let the korean leaders resolve the crisis themselves. why couldn't we encourage and get behind saying look south korea we encourage you to talk to north korea and see if you're going to sit down maybe united states and china could both be observers or
3:10 am
something and to get it moved on but not for us to constantly stir up trouble by having our military confrontation about building up and having these war games what are these war games where are they practicing you know is so unnecessary and confrontational and it doesn't mean that if we didn't have war games that we would give up something on our defense our side has to worry about the bush doctrine which tried just to you know make it our official policy that you need to have preventive war well preemptive preventive war is aggression and that i don't lie. spades restive region of catalonia so thousands turned out on monday as the countdown continues to that big independence referendum at the start of october emotions been really really high throughout the week and leaders this say that if the vote is indeed do choose yes that independence will be declared within forty eight i was no less. but it was
3:11 am
a bit. today. to talk as a service at the moment the national government strongly opposes the push for independence despite a growth in local support hundreds of cattle and officials gathered on saturday in a show defiance against madrid days earlier more than seven hundred mayors discovered that they faced prosecution by the government for supporting the independence vote or when catalonia held its first symbolic referendum in twenty fourteen again the authorities in madrid were far from happy about it they slandered as unconstitutional at the time and even threaten to kick the legendary barcelona football club out of the national league but it didn't put off catalan leaders or dent their popularity they're the next to a star for
3:12 am
a pro independence party secured a majority in catalonia as parliament insisted the region would succeed away come march madrid up the pressure up the ante and even barred catalan officials from holding public office for organizing said referendum so why does spain fear the vote or there are a number of reasons for it let me take you through it first off if catalonia sees its own way forward spain would lose almost seven percent of its territories a big chunk and the key point here is that it's a rich chunk it's got the top g.d.p. it will also lose over seven million of the population in other words a fifth of its tax earnings coming in twenty percent of exports was also go to and as would a quarter of all spain's tourist barcelona the whole area really popular furthermore catalonia has a third of all spain's a limp medalists incidentally what to make things worse for spain's leaders it seems as many as fifty percent of catalans now are in favor of in. according to the
3:13 am
latest polls this week where we spoke to says madrid treatment of catalonia showed spanish democracy is not in good shape. i think it's very sad it's more than just indignation to see the democratic generation of the spanish state and this feels bad this is what we regret most of all but that's all we are com we have a lot of work to do in the municipalities and we'll continue working for the people that's what is important for us the majority of the members of the parliament of the catalonian parliament are in favor of the wind up and learns eighty percent of the cattle and six a ship is in favor of the referendum of several terminations to ask catalans if they want or not. the referendum by without despondence a state because that's what we want we don't do it unilaterally because we want to hide anything. they keep offering the spanish the state. never share
3:14 am
it to beaver dissipate in this democratic exercise but it's up to them. the more of our news review of the week after the break the russian navy had some number of i still targets close to the partly occupied syrian city of terry's old. politicians to do something. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to be. to the right to be press it's like that before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the water how. should.
3:15 am
the international community continues lee emphasize about one or united iraq this as a slogan maybe an approach will be politicians but in reality on the ground in iraq is not one and we recognize united and we as kurds are not the ones to be blamed school what is happening in the rest of iraq under the direct wrong directions that iraq has gone through. the syrian army has reached the euphrates river off to retaking two more districts in the south east into arizona city from i still early this week the russian navy supporting the syrian military and a number of targets close to that city to. russia's

3:17 am
the school or so to call my dad. would i mean any. seconds of before. adam. wanted dead or if it shifted a lot although. maybe maybe a show one off and not even a shot of. trying to steady well or been made out to sit in. my beckett humour's just no more. of the sort of deal with a lady she's. meanwhile the latest round of syrian peace talks in cuz it started seeing a breakthrough agreement on the deescalation zones as the term which could finally provide some peace in the war ravaged country the guarantors of the peace
3:18 am
settlement that's russia iran and turkey signed a document marking the boundaries of this final deescalation zone in the ad lib province in the north west of syria is on top of the already implemented zones elsewhere in the country and why there's still much to be done to unite all the country's forces in this ongoing struggle against terrorism russia's special envoy for syria is cautiously optimistic. we consider the establishment of the deescalation zones to be a major milestone it has served as the light at the end of the tunnel for the syrian people and made them feel more secure it gives hope for progress in the near future. there's more n.r.t. documentary teams bring to the very heart of the battle to retake another syrian city racket to hear firsthand accounts from the people fighting to repel the terror group there.
3:19 am
so you feel more. ruckus now surrounded by the u.s. backed syrian democratic forces which consist mainly of kurdish militias clashes are ongoing as the terrorists a still in control of several blocks of the city it was a tough program to make make is tell us the documentary director explained that. when we went to make this film we had no idea what we're going to come across we had literally no idea. we were attacked several times there was snipers usually so the main problems around iraq are snipers and mines and the drones the little drones that isis sons with little grenades so they drop the grenade and are exposed so there is actually one that attacked us while we were not even on a permission yet we were about to go to operation. one of.
3:20 am
the grenade exploded in midair so it dropped from it didn't calculate the height so if it fell lower it would be done. the most shocking story was one that happened when it got to be morning and when everything got to be peaceful and all of a sudden someone showed up with a huge sword. and started beating random things isis just executed it's true a few minutes or maybe an hour ago. his three kids all of a sudden maybe two minutes later we heard screaming and he just started running to the isis space just started running there without a rifle just with it with a sword i think. strikes from the emergency because they probably saw them on satellite so they were isis. you know was one of the medics
3:21 am
that we were filming. we are the only generation that will never see we want to go back to the days when real young. and it's true. it was a call to russia for the twenty eighteen winter olympics in the week came on thursday it was made by seventeen national sports doping agencies but the head of the world anti-doping agency hit back at the international olympic committee session. the comments that have been made by the. time leave the work that has been done to develop the proper system. backwards or rather looking forward to it comes after seventeen national anti doping agencies including the u.k. and the u.s. called on the international olympic committee to take action against russia in a strongly worded statement the agency's accuse the i.o.c.
3:22 am
of not doing enough to investigate allegations of russian don't ping adding that the reluctance to take action against russian athletes could even threaten the future of the olympic movement itself but this statement didn't come out of nowhere it came hot off the back of revelations from was a that the ninety five out of ninety six of the russian athletes who were mentioned in that mcclaren report the now notorious mclaren report has been found clear of any wrongdoing due to a lack of sufficient evidence however there's no clear sailing for the russian athletes just yet they're going to have to wait on a final decision on whether a blanket ban on russia taking part in the olympic games will be in place or not which is due from the i.o.c. in november the governor governor. told us he thinks this is these latest calls to russia for the winter olympics are over for. it is based on very flawed evidence based in a whisper who know that the russian authorities can't even get the american authorities
3:23 am
ask questions of what all he knows and how it was being done and so basis is open like drawn back on to russia however it seems that everybody's complicit in some way or shape or form so it's kind of a case of like how much how much is too much and when will it be enough for these kind of like group of seventeen very much boy is interested parties to just say ok russia prove you just keep proving that you're doing the right thing you kind of wonder what our deal to your motives for these people to be pushing and pushing and pushing because it really isn't fair it shows great consistency on their side that they're able to be you're pointing the finger at russia when their own houses are very very far from it being in order however we have to look at what's going right in russia. it's been almost a year since hillary clinton's shell collection defeated donald trump but still came to explain who she thinks is to blame for the old clintons on
3:24 am
a fifteen city two to promote her new book the cold war the books already told it was best seller list and see if clinton threw it because asians of people as well as organizations but she thinks her complain a washington correspondent smear akong reach through clinton's analysis. 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 to start on the truck. and it seems like she's compiled quite the list of exactly who and what to play verses that were work in two thousand and sixteen russian wiki leaks i inherit nothing from the democratic party bernie's not a democrat jim collins letter my primary opponent and a lot of his supporters the sexism and the massaging the resentment the stereotype . a lot of people didn't want to hear my plans.
3:25 am
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 songe barack obama 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 her. trump supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zz and then there was a major strategic miscalculation when she chose not to campaign in the rust belt losing the democratic firewall that obama won in two thousand and twelve the same
3:26 am
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 the swan song. on our t.v. washington d.c. . well within days of the book's publication more than nine hundred megs of reviews appeared on our business website some of the negative feedback though vanished from amazon's web site but see the web come under scrutiny over just how it checks reviews and what happens to these comments is what some others say about it. it's no role to decide view as helpful or unhelpful in making that decision we do have mechanisms in place to ensure that the voices of money to drown out the voices of a few customers are. guidelines amazon participates in the usual thing that the mainstream media do their propping up
3:27 am
clinton the propping up the democrats removing any negativity just as they did during the election campaign constantly criticizing donald trump and his supporters and constantly saying she was going to win she lost this is just the next chapter if you have mommy say in her loss well i'm surprised that that many people have actually read the book or even bother to read the book why would you want to really read a book by the loser or bet on a development so i'm one of those big stories of the week an update on friday's terrorism chub attack the metropolitan police now confirming in the last few minutes that a second man has now been arrested a twenty one year old apparently in west london on saturday an eighteen year old man was arrested in connection with that bucket bomb attack on friday which injured thirty people he was picked up down in dover in the south of england thanks for watching i'm kevin o. in this is that weekly our news review of the week. eighteen
