another setback for islamic state syrian army liberates. one of the. strongholds in the east of the country. also ahead this hour the. president. reaching. agreement to move criticism from european leaders. this is a dangerous signal. austrians prepared to head to the polls this sunday it's predicted the freedom party is set for a big gain it's.

midnight in madrid seven am in seoul on one in the morning right here in moscow this sunday october the fifteenth my names you know me well come to our international our top story syrian government troops have liberated the eastern city of maya deen from islamic state and is according to the russian defense ministry the significance. my dean is one of the last remaining isolate strongholds so the liberation of the city is likely to come as a major blow to this terrorist group fighting a military source the sun the news agency has with the soldiers and now driving the remaining jarvis out of the city for what is underway on removing land mines and booby traps left behind by the militants fighting lies in the province situated

just south of the provincial capital and this area has witnessed some of the fiercest fighting between islamic state and syrian forces as government troops battle to push the islamists out syrian army troops successfully reached the outskirts of al my earlier this month effectively trapping isis in the city and of course russian forces have been actively supporting syrian troops to with the russian naval task force launching cruise missile strikes on terrorist positions in al my again while dozens of militants have been killed in a series of russian air strikes across the province in recent weeks and all this comes just one day off the russian general staff announced that islamic state now controls less than eight percent of syria you see a major successes of the syrian troops but controlling with us that you would see less than eighty percent of syrian territory it remains under control the rear of the russian view or simply will continue its operations against. terrorists with

the principles that are completely eliminated the liberation of. that islamic states presence in syria has shrunk further leaving the group wounded and most crucially more vulnerable perhaps the perfect time for government troops to intensify its anti eisel campaign. middle east analyst a moral one how long he believes it will take to liberate the remaining eight percent of syrian territory held biodiesel. it will take some time but major city after a major city is forming and this is very significant there is room for had been divided as a city between those assyrians who did not want to. not accept basically to go under control and. so the lines in the trenches and everything are very much stiff doesn't have apparently this divide within the city the syrian army having

crossed the euphrates a little bit south of daters or is now heading north back on the other side of the euphrates the eastern bank and is in circling those forces from behind so this would also hope for the speed of the clearing of the resort itself but would it would also take some time just on another aspect to get your thoughts the city of iraq north up for looking all of them up there in eastern syria that's where the u.s. backed anti ice law peroration is ongoing that russian military has said that the coalition is using the wrong target takes hours they're trying to destroy the city's water supplies which could of course impact greatly on civilians your thoughts on that aspect well yes i mean we're hearing a lot of reports that. the bombing of the american since this operation started four months ago. hasn't been very accurate the united states policy has backfired

and they are forcing somehow to even if they don't do not necessarily wish so to hide behind civilians you know that they haven't been very clever about this. be historic nuclear agreement with iran is in jeopardy after president he won't certified to ron's compliance with the deal is this comes despite the global nuclear watchdog as well as u.s. and european officials saying iran is keeping its side of the accord. we will not continue down a path whose predictable conclusion is more violence more terror and the very real threat of iran's nuclear breakout importantly iran is not living up to the spirit of the deal the move means the u.s. congress now has sixty days to decide whether to reimpose sanctions against iran as

well as come up with new legislation to try them in the nuclear deal but if those negotiations fail trump sees the deal will be terminated which risks undermining the fragile balance of the nuclear deal. secured here's why the american president might be considering ripping up the agreement. four reasons why trump needs to pick a fight with iran. after all his policy flip flops he needs to stand firm on something iran will do just to save face threat posed by iran whose chief exports are violence bloodshed and chaos all nations of its most work together to isolate. the. washington's also getting worried by iran's growing influence in the region iran has been allowed to run wild throughout the middle east for the last eight years. but let's not forget money

iran the evil enemy helps is so a lot more weapons than the compliant partner investments in the united states in our military. communities very happy want to thank you. and the cherry on top bashing iran means pleasing it close friend israel common. do israel first from iran for decades iran has fueled the fire is threatening the region and causing so much you buy alliance with it's so. funny. i want you to know how much we appreciate. in american policy on iran which you enunciated so clearly it's very hard to say what his what his goal is his is he trying to go to iran into taking some actually really the pressure on trial is coming from is his biggest sponsor is financial sponsors and

fundraisers and they are absolutely all virtually ready for a war with iran. president responded to donald trump's claims by saying it's not up to any single leader to make this about a global agreement. this is an international multilateral deal that has been ready for it by the un security council it is a u.n. document is it possible for a president to unilaterally decide to fight this important international deal apparently he's not in the know it is not a document between iran and the us so he can't treat it the way he likes. it took nine years of tough negotiations before the deal was finally reached in twenty fifteen although the standoff over iran's nuclear activities stretch back more than a decade on was widely regarded as one of the world's most urgent crises and it

wasn't only the u.s. that painstakingly negotiated the terms it was the combined efforts of russia china britain france and germany to the u.s. secretary of state has been trying to rally european allies who are trying to the situation so far three have mostly reacted angrily. i fully expected are eligible for it in europe by the region are going to be very supportive of president of the united states as many posts not this one it is not a bilateral agreement it does not belong to any single country and it is not up to any single country to terminate it we cannot afford as international community as europe for sure to dismantle and nuclear agreement that is working and delivering especially now this is a difficult and in our view dangerous signal to the agreement with iran has shown for the first time that it's possible to prevent war through negotiations with the destruction of this agreement would mean that others around the world would no longer rely on such treaties it's therefore

a danger that goes far beyond iran we in europe germany france the u.k. and the e.u. we stand by this agreement with iran we want to preserve the agreement i think it will will further estrange our relations with our european allies it will draw them closer together and i think actually closer to the russians and the chinese just things stand now the iranians have the support of the russians the chinese and all of our european allies it's washington this isolated. ukrainian nationalists have been marking seventy five years since the creation of the ukrainian nationalists insurgent army in the capital t. it. the army was funded during the second world war in one thousand nine hundred forty two and collaborated with nazi germany during the conflict against the soviet union in one thousand forty three the insurgent ukrainian forces adopted a policy of must securing and expelling the polish population from ukraine which

poland later declared as genocide it's also believed the army was responsible for the killing of ukrainian jews. moscow is concerned the u.s. is pushing the world towards another arm. in this race we get into the story right after this.

here's what people have been saying about rejected in the senate it's pull along. the only show i go out of my way to find you know what it is that really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of r t america is doing the same we are apparently better than. the c. people you've never heard of love jack tonight. president of the world bank so take . me seriously send us an e-mail. you're back with the r t international moscow is concerned about the expansion of america's think missile systems saying it's pushing the world into a new arms race the russian defense ministry expressed its fears of a joint briefing with china at the united nations according to data compiled by

moscow there are sixty u.s. country missiles in europe on iran one hundred fifty in the asia pacific the total number though is expected to grow to one follows and in the next five years. well part of russia's concern is over the so-called prompt global strike system the russian defense ministry sais that the u.s. is closely working on the project adding it would not require nuclear weapons but would be just as destructive with more on all violent chuckling booga. if you didn't think the world was scary enough this might just push you over the edge the russian defense ministry says that washington is one step closer to developing it prompt global strike system the pentagon has no moved a step closer to the development of approach global strike system such systems are designed to achieve the same results as nuclear weapons so let's break down the jargon problem global strike or p.j.s is a system that can carry out a person guided conventional air strike anywhere in the world within an hour

conventional air strike implies dropping projectile such as barrels or steel pipes from high altitudes and high speeds and anything release from the height of over one hundred kilometers instantly turns into a deadly bomb thanks to the gained momentum and explosion equal the power of a nuclear one except no fallout they even coined a term for kinetic bombardment and here's the kicker kinetic bombardment is not prohibited by either the outer space treaty or the anti-ballistic missile treaty if that's not worrying enough wait till you see the report penned by a congress think tank earlier this year it's packed with possible drawbacks to the system saying that it could in fact prove destabilizing in a crisis for a number of reasons for example the report mentions the possibility of the us as adversaries taking the p.d.s. launch for a nuclear strike which could trigger a nuclear response and of course once one world power obtains a prompt strike system everyone will be racing to be the second pushing the world into a new arms race there are concerns by countries that. prompt global strike would

allow another country to do a strike on another country without using nuclear weapons as a way to take advantage of these new technologies and that's why that you're seeing this arms race either we need a new agreement between countries or we need to figure out a way to ban any kind of weaponization of space that would not be good for world security and again is just causing another cold war type arms race. austria's a right wing nationalist are once again looking to place in government ahead of sunday's vote poll suggests a strong showing for the anti immigration freedom party now that grouping is currently in second place as you can see here these are the latest polls i don't front the centrist people's party now its leader current foreign minister said bussy encourage says' if he becomes chancellor he will end power sharing with the

social democrats and then seek a coalition with any other party including perhaps the right wing with which he shares a strong immigration stance well the latest results in last year only being to concern over the rise of populism at the heart of europe these are some recent examples in france they staunch immigration hardliner on national marine le pen was a leading contender in this year's presidential election last month germany saw a right wing party enter parliament for the first time in nearly sixty years and no austria might be about to follow suit. that gets on the board at the. deputy district is labadee up the top it'll be up with us just trying to end the gold dust piece he pushes the ship into all the rights.

there is a history of frustration with the established political parties during the global recession and twenty nine europe in austria were hit hard until of this war this stream of migrants in twenty fifteen all that enormously increased popular discontent. following events in austria as our correspondent paula slayer. there's a lot of intrigue over whether or not the right wing freedom party will do as well as its sisters elsewhere in europe in france and in germany form a fringe parties making it big on the political scene the us skeptic anti immigrant freedom party is seriously complicates things for the leading center right people's party the v p o v p started to harsh in its agenda to attract voters i'm here to

for the people's party with its new young leader sebastian kurtz at the helm presenting himself as a bold reformist and not shying away from bowing the policies of the controversial freedom party it's slated to win sunday's parliamentary election some expose suggests curt's might even approach the freedom party to form a coalition government not least of all because of its full knowledge with its previous partner the social democrats i don't think that a big coalition the coalition between conservatives and social democrats will come again because no one wants i think there will be a change people want change people will vote change the european political landscape is shifting with parties that were on the fringes wielding even more influence. to the u.s. now where thousands of firefighters in california are trying to get a grip on seventeen wildfires spreading across the western american state at least
