and thinks it's going to take. germany still without a government and setting up a temporary fix just to keep parliament ticking over we look at how the french president might seize the chance to become they. also ahead this hour the high security facility which holds fear in the hearts of even russia's most hardened criminals we gain unique access to see what life is like inside the nation's toughest prison. some of the country's worst. serial killers terrorists in cannibal held. to saudi officials are seen visiting a synagogue in part as in what's being seen as another sign that saudi arabia and israel wants bitter rivals might be maneuvering to secure

a regional power position. live from moscow twenty four hours a day this is our international my names you know neil welcome to the program we will get to a headline stories in just a moment but first some breaking news reports are emerging of a bomb blast and gun attack a mosque in egypt north sinai province it took place during friday prayers on local officials are reported as saying there have been dozens of casualties now it comes weeks after a major militant attack on egyptian soldiers in sinai when we get more details on this we will of course bring it to you here on the program. germany's role as the main player is looking shaky squabbling over

a coalition terms continues to leave the country without a government for a special panel is being set up just so that parliament can keep working but it's taking burleson's attention away from its power highest position of brussels top table not could mean opportunities for others us or europe correspondent breaks down. it's not often in a game of cards that a joke beats a queen but in the game of power poker a money call may be trying to do just last and use. is the use de facto leader not so long ago this would have been unthinkable as i was proclaimed foreign white as the leader of the free world.

the chancellor's attention focused firmly on her failure to form a government following the breakdown of coalition talks means that crown looks decidedly steady and the. steps forward the french president is one of the youngest leaders in the world at thirty nine and he comes with some plans on how he says the european union needs to change. i want a true european asylum office to be created we should progressively establish a european border police. a budget can only go hand in hand with strong political leadership led by a common finance minister europe must have a joint intervention force a common defense budget and a joint doctrine of action his plans are expansive and would result in more powers going to brussels germany isn't on side with all of his ideas but should that be

a shift in the power dynamic between the two countries that might not matter its all france at the helm of europe exercising its dominance certainly rings a bell if you look back through the history books lynn even once welcomed another young french leader who had big ideas on how to change europe peter all of a. another win for president mccrone is down thing a london based european banking authority will move to parra sweyn britain exits the block but it will philosopher tom brooks from durham law school sais that if mccrone threatens his hand up the e.u. breaks the talks will get a whole lot tougher with the problems that mays been having at home with a weak minority government we look across to europe with angela merkel having trouble other problems than with other european countries make wrong looking strong it's not a good time to want to negotiate new things with europe when europe has many other

things on its plate the real problem here the real headache for the british and theresa may with mccrone is that mccrone ran on a platform of being very pro european and he's very much europe filed support of greater coordination of europe europe coming closer together so i think again bad news for the prime minister. well with uncertainty hanging over cole's position of a possible snap election you can watch sophie shevardnadze later today go head to head with the deputy leader of the alternative for germany party which made on precision gains at the expense of the german chancellor she believes merkel doesn't have the country's best interests at heart or any other solution almost would be better than merkel so there's no reason to stick to her because she has damaged our country in a way no one ever did i don't want to have even germany influencing even there the european union with the visions of our chancellor we want to have someone in place

who has visions who wants to change the this system of the european union how it works how it functions and then take a more responsible role she manages power this is what she is doing but she has not the interest of the country in her mind no one no one knows what the youth what she's thinking she's not coming with a vision she has not a vision for the country she's not taking any decision she's not sticking to values she has not a program for her far country the only program she has is the program to save her political power that's all. a special report now on a unique look inside one of the most highly secured locations in the world russia's black dolphin prison ours is some of the country's most dangerous and violent

criminals. the facility is first mentioned in history books back in the eighteenth century today it holds hundreds of inmates and is known for its brutal rules. against the ev was given exclusive access to this site. in these provincial town at the edge of siberia is a prison but it's no ordinary prison this facility has spawned legends meets scandals and investigations the mere sight of the statue has broken the most so lists butches the black hole thing russia's highest security prison

it is here but some of the country's worst maniacs serial killers terrorists and even cannibals held in this cell a man who raped forty four miners and killed five children aged seven to eleven some of the people in this prison will never be allowed out so we dread for the things that they've done and then the man in a drunken killing frenzy killed six of his friends in this cell a murderer killed eleven people. seven hundred inmates sentenced to life between them they've killed almost four thousand people everything is procedural everything intended to minimize risk from sleeping schedules to how inmates are a school with that but do not forget what these people did to be here they'll do or has a description of the inmates crimes any sympathy the guards might feel disappears

immediately. you ask me if i do it again i've thought about it and it would have been better if i died with them i probably wouldn't have done it it is better to die than sacrifice others eagle was just over twenty when he and his father took on a rival gang after killing their enemies they attempted to get rid of witnesses ordinary civilians in a restaurant seven dead eight injured both he and his father incarcerated here do see each other sometimes when he fell ill they transferred me to help him for a while the most important thing is to avoid becoming him bettered it is so easy to turn into an animal here but staying human that's harder that's why we try both with each other and with the administration to stay human some say a life sentence is worse than the death penalty. i've been here for

seventeen years and i've never heard anyone say they don't regret it or they'd kill more i'm sorry but that's nonsense. i regret it everything is lost the years go by your health worsens everything passes by i think there are a few people left in here who think they did the right thing they are show you that you were wrong totally wrong you can do that. dmitri saluted his family his father his mother and his brother he was twenty now he's forty five. we watch t.v. we see people who have committed two or three murders get sentenced to seventeen or nineteen years that isn't so terrible yes we are guilty before the law yes we are guilty before the public but if they're left out after twenty years why are there fraid of letting us out who in their fifty's could be bothered to do anything all they would want is a normal life here the difference is that life sentences are mostly reserved for

crimes of such brutality that they escape reason for individuals deemed a permanent danger to society one inmate released early from the black dolphin committed a murder on the very train that was taking him home most will never see release. inmates can pick where to work in the wood shop on the suing machines they earn money with which they can buy extra food personal items make calls and pay compensation to their victims they even have visits four times a year with one last thing up to three days i think that. if you take the period when we came into solvent and compare it to know the conditions are entirely different now we have work for self-improvement access to the media.

prisoners now have special terminals where they could review their cases complain about abuse or apply for work. they have a library a small church which was built and painted by the inmates themselves and the certain wasn't even the walls have to be painted in light colors so that they lessen the psychological stress on and mates and staff so they can also take walks sort of the exercise yard isn't anything to write home about but every prisoner has the right this bend an hour and out of here every day walking around exercising or just sitting still so long as they don't mind being watched a far cry from the infamous hell hole described a decade ago but control is total god's check on everyone every fifteen

minutes in cell cameras a monitored twenty four seven and there's three doors to every cell this is a cell for those sentenced to life it's locked with a full metal door a cage door and another one for complete security we essentially have a cell within a cell it's easy to see why no one has ever escaped from the black dolphin and for most the uni sure way out is in a coffin or i guess the of. from solar let's russia yet quite an inside the israeli prime minister has opened up about the countries covert operations with a number of arab nations and said tell of even seeking to expand its work practice corporation with arab countries is usually covert i believe that this relationship will continue to develop and that they will be a fruit for the expansion of the peace orbit. however some of the corporation

doesn't seem that covert after all in a perhaps symbolic public display to saudi officials have been seen visiting a synagogue in part this with the media calling it a nod to israel when it comes to the israeli defense forces chief said his nation was ready to share intelligence on iran with saudi arabia jacqueline bouvier now looks into why tel aviv on riyadh could be willing to overlook their differences israel has been a thorn in the side of a number of middle eastern states for what feels like forever singled out and attacked it was just a fact of life. we are freezing all the forms and levels of communication between the israeli enemy and any arab countries while until israel is going ahead with its crimes against the arab people of palestine and lebanon taking advantage of the silence of countries worldwide. yes sure that i live in the woods witnessing the reality and the nature of the israeli occupation the cruelty and barbarism of this

race is regime committing war crimes and crimes against humanity just a few years ago the idea of saudi arabia and israel getting into bed together would have been shocking to say the least but now they look to be on the same page or the times they are changing and whispers of growing ties between israel and the arab world are getting louder respect the other side's wish when times are developing whether it's we saudi arabia or with other arab countries we are willing to exchange information with moderate arab countries including intelligence information there are many common interests between us. a high ranking israeli military official has even been quoted as saying that he agreed with every word his saudi counterpart said at a conference in d.c. adding he felt like they could have been his own words being read by the saudi chief now there is a clear reason for this shift remember the old adage of the enemy of my enemy is my friend i think this is a wake up call for everyone when israelis and arabs and it's all the arabs and

israelis i want to agree on one thing. people should pay attention we should stop the syrian takeover so the motivating factor for these are likely bedfellows is iran and the fear of tehran's growing influence in the region is so strong that it has even elbowed aside the question of palestine it's quite obvious that the saudis would consider today that the major threat in the area is the iranian and that's why they were looking for any allies in the area also to be against iran in this matter differently that was absolutely israel which we're launching a huge campaign since ages since years against iran so there would be a kind of a closeness between israel and saudi arabia thinking both that the major in the region is in iran and that's why we believe that you know this i would these are willing to negotiate even the arab initiative to start with the normalization with

israel even before they are addressing the palestinian question and this is absolutely is not acceptable iran has even tried to bring palestine back into focus today the issue of palestine is the primary issue with the muslim world while it seems not anymore. the archon telling navy ses that a short violent was detected near the last known location of one of its submarines in the south atlantic believed to be an explosion the sub as now been missing for over a week with numerous countries helping in the search operation russia is among those who. going to are hoping i should say to recover the forty four missing crew members on the central research ship equipped with deep sea view.

the situation is critical and we're getting a more glory to today's a seventeen day that submarine has an oxygen supply. side going and you know we know that they will return we have faith we're waiting for them so well we'll continue fighting to i think it's raining the sun begs and professionals they will come back at any moment with think we hope that there is a sign here they come back to us of them that they return where they come back to us alive and those are we think that is why we are here. today. and.

a ten year old british for muslim girl who chose to wear the hijab and know that when you look at me you instantly assume that my parents forced me to wear the hijab you could not be more wrong you are doing office that is ruining my confidence and self-esteem is the young girl in the confidence of many other you took your school inspectors see the moves about monitoring whether wearing a he job might be interpreted as the sexualization of young girls and warns that parents should speak god if they're concerned about fundamentalist groups influencing school policy a barrister understand make human rights campaigner we spoke to children's clothes are not the government's business. this is something that should be a free choice between the parents and the children and it should be something personal and it's not for the state to intervene in such an issue well it's not necessarily them being made to wear it sometimes it's many girls choice choices i have young girls in my family who chose to wear the headscarf at the age of eight

or nine i personally see this this is another reason for poor institutional islam or thirty vs where where really. the muslim community first we heard about trojan horse now we're hearing about muslim young women being targeted when is this going to stop when are we just going to be accepted as being british as being part of this society being allowed to the freedom to practice our faith as long as we're not harming the other individuals. one of the retail industries busiest days of the year is seeing employees looking to caution as well get your homes on some of the best deals block friday has to offer some employees in the us have been sewing off their uniforms to help shoppers skip the queues the checkout.
