person is seen lying on the ground. now are to kill more police in new york he reports from close to the scene of the attack. well we're here on eighth avenue and the city is breathing a sigh of relief in the aftermath of an explosion in the subways now rush hour in new york city is quite a big deal monday morning people are pouring in crowded subway trains and there appears to have been a blast and now it's being called a terrorist attack or an attempted terrorist attack the attacker has been identified as a twenty seven year old male details are beginning to surface and at the moment the city is breathing a sigh of relief now eight avenue is now open up for traffic and the incident took place very close to the port authority building now the port authority building in the main bus terminal for manhattan people coming in from new jersey commuter buses as well as buses from around the country coming in on greyhound all come into the

port authority building and that building was shut down in the aftermath of the blast there was reports of a stampede and here people running not knowing what was happening but at the moment it appears that there are no fatalities only injuries in these injuries are non-life threatening so a lot of questions are being asked people are wondering how safe things are in the morning rush hour as you see crowds and crowds of people piled into subway trains trying to get into manhattan people are asking about safety here in new york city police department is on the scene there helicopters have been flying above there are also a fire department vehicles around we understand that the f.b.i.'s joint terrorism task force is investigating this this is being treated as a terrorist incident here in new york city but at the moment the suspect is in custody and there are no fate talladega. new york police who identified the suspect as being twenty seven year old. they say that he had bound a low tech explosive device to his body which badly injured him when it went off

and you remember just over a month ago the city's deadliest attack could since nine eleven. mr say probably been planning this for a number of we did this in the name of isis. virginia state senator richard black delays that it's inevitable countries with open borders become targets for attacks. we never had terrorist attacks in the united states for you know four hundred years and then all of a sudden we have them almost all who we made easier so it's not just in the united

states is now happening in europe. everywhere are all going to it's wooers and our wells. who. are rather have with. often with religious belief that they have to. have that no one true. it's inevitable that you're going to have the we agree radical mosque function in this country and who are in europe and they literally preach eight minutes they vote go out we know it's your duty. to to murder and they go out and they do it and sometimes it takes many years some of these people are not even religious and then they you know have a religious conversion later on and if they go to one of these bad mosques and then the next thing that you have as a suicide bomb. british newspaper the times says throwing some

accusations at this network regarding our coverage of the you case grenfell tower tragedy and it's article the times accuses r.t. of attempting to ignite a class war in britain with its coverage of the tragic event and also accuses this channel of mis reporting that ten million pounds have been spent on clothing so as to make the building less of an eyesore for the rich residents nearby on top of that the time says that we should have made clear that one of our guests lisa mckenzie as research fellow at the london school of economics is also an activist for the un a case group class war finally r.t. host action returns ian mike kaiser i've been accused of being too critical of the authorities or covering the dreadful tower tragedy as well as of indulging in conspiracy theories and crime fell tally. fire occurred in june of this year it claimed the lives of seventy one people building had been on fire sixty hours before it was extinguished tragedy sparked widespread outrage in

a society with many people angry a perceived failings of the local authorities earlier we spoke to artists putting host and former british m.p. george galloway is called the times article embarrassing. the very idea the disaster in which seventy one at least seventy one poor people men women and children were burned to death as a result of the failure of their land more which is the richest bar in england the royal bara of kensington and chelsea failing to make proper safety provision for. clouding the building in arsenic i'm not making that up the clothing was made of arsenic which poisoned those who were not actually burned to death the idea that british anger this

is the responsibility of our. of the russians is beyond of pensive it is obscene and i live work in the area around ground felt our i have to look at it every day i can still smell it every day i have a school governor in our school well there are children who have still not been really housed six months after this infernal the idea that we're all angry because the russians told us to be angry is i see beyond. it is positively obscene. the russian president is currently on a middle east tour which today saw him visit three countries syria egypt and then turkey which is where he is now is my guest he has been following putin's talks with the

turkish president. this was the meeting between. president. bush to the legions ties between the two countries are getting stronger every day they also discuss the whole hoops the issue of syria of course was right up there they said that progress is being made on the ground and of course those words are being echoed by actual events on the ground the syrian civil war is entering its final stages but there is an interesting thing here recurring it seems coincidence that keeps on happening in the middle east when one conflict appears to be dying down in this case where a ferry to syria another conflict in evidently erupts in this case where referring to the united states recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel. both russia and the u.s. administration's decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and move the

american embassy that doesn't help progress in the middle east process. in the country it destabilizes the difficult situation in the region. could ruin the peace process altogether. denouncements and condemnation have come in hot and heavy from around the world have been protests worldwide globally and the specially in palestine in israel that palestinians are going out of the streets to voice their displeasure that the feeling of hurt that they're experiencing that feeling of betrayal the president had once said that palestinians have been killed two thousand people injured by the by the israel's israeli security services and this is just the beginning stages of the un was also very harsh in what he had to say he said that israel is using the situation to crack down on gaza to crack down on hamas on palestinians who also said that this is

a crime what is happening and. cannot be ignored by the international community. the american decision to relocate these really capita led to a huge wave of criticism for protesters against this decision were killed by israeli soldiers thousand injured israel is. on the flames it sees in this wave of protests to oppress palestinians i'm not used to receiving. lectures. about morality from a leader who bombs kurdish villagers in his native turkey who dreams dreams. hopes iran go wrong international sanctions. us. so much going on timing of this visit was also rather interesting because it had been planned well in advance but you know the so many events to be taking place at

this time and for me a putin and president deadline to meet and to discuss them two central players in middle eastern affairs well that's a fortunate coincidence and that wraps up quite the top of blood to me of putin from egypt syria to turkey and then back to russia in one day. earlier today the russian president also made a stop in syria russia's base he announced russia started to pull its troops out of the country as i still had been defeated according to russia's defense ministry twenty three aircraft and two helicopters will be taken out of syria as well as military police units a day mining center and a hospital is a look back now at isis rise and fall. islamic state a group whose name has become a synonym for bombings kidnappings beheadings and tara.

was. the group emerged in the early to thousands in iraq as a solid jihadist militant group and came to prominence in two thousand and three after the american invasion however back then the organization was too weak to terrorize the world but by two thousand and fourteen eisel had grown strong enough to proclaim itself a caliphate a terrorist state with its own currency noles vast territory both in syria and in

iraq that's when the us pledge to crush and i can announce that america will lead a broad coalition to roll back this terrorist threat. our ject it is clear we will degrade and ultimately destroy. the small syrian town of kabbani was the first major loss for i saw. it. i still fought back and managed to make further territorial gains but ones not quite as significant as in the early days in september two thousand and fifteen russia joined the fight rolling out its. large scale anti terror campaign in syria . six months after the start of the russian campaign another major symbolic loss for

i saw the liberation of power myra the city where the terrorists filmed one of their most horrific executions. russian as strikes destroyed oil trucks and tankers draining the terrorists' cash cells and while i suppose money was burning the u.s. led coalition together with the iraqis and the kurds attacked isis biggest city mosul the battle for mosul turned out to be a long one waged eva nine months in victory came a tremendous cost turning a city with two million inhabitants into rubble. after the liberation of mosul the coalition shifted its focus on syria backing its

kurdish allies in their push against isis self-proclaimed capital raca in october two thousand and seventeen the city was completely liberated was. the final nail in the caliphates coffin was the liberation of dare resort the syrian city which i so besieged for three years. of the last resort there was not much of the states left so i see this of the defeat of to defeat the push from all sides and all parties u.s. and russian and strikes and iraqi forces kurdish militias and hezbollah

author and writer abdel bari atwan thinks that america should now join russia in withdrawing its forces from syria well actually it is their day of celebrations for russia and its allies in the middle east i believe it is actually a huge achievement and president bush is not only visiting syria he is going to pay another visit to egypt after that he will conclude that i have to visit. to meet the president. of turkey to say that we have to look to the state also that are actually coming after the victory against isis i mean to make a permanent peace in syria. peace on the middle east u.s. troops in syria was illegal and now a view will be more illegal i think this is a clear message to the american administration that they should actually pull our

troops from syria not only from syria but also from iraq so there is no need for them to be there unless the american actually would like them not the water in the middle east. meanwhile tensions around jerusalem are mounting israel has attacked the mass positions in the gaza strip that's after the palestinian militants reportedly fired at least one rocket targeting i.d.f. positions the latest violence in the wake of donald trump's announcement that the u.s. would recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel the move sparked a wave of anger in gaza on monday.

and yesterday hundreds of demonstrators also rallied near the u.s. embassy in beirut have any security forces reportedly fired tear gas and water cannon into the crowd. around the same time the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. reacted to the wave of criticism by doubling down insisting that america's view simply reflects the way the world is when you recognize the truth when both parties recognize reality peace comes we are living in the reality that jerusalem is the capital of israel. where this reality appears to be different to what the rest of the world sees the u.n. assembly overwhelmingly voted to disavow israeli ties to jerusalem with the organization secretary general stressing that quote there is no alternative to a two state solution political analyst come are alarmed says that trumps decision will most likely backfire. the rest of the world clearly did disagree with and america alone in its decision in thinking jerusalem is the capital of israel so yes

it's something that does not fit well not just in the region capital but all european capitals as well all the major powers are condemning the united states for this electoral decision there's a lot of pressure on the americans perhaps to reverse his decision it's unlikely that they will this is something the united states and shot themselves in the foot everything they do at the moment backfires and they're losing ground diplomacy they're no longer the effective players of the middle east so very few countries in the region take the united states seriously they don't see them as a. partner in peace but rather they see someone a president or a government that's very reckless and cannot be worked with whether it be the arab israeli peace process or in other conflicts like syria and iraq. the wave of protests by donald trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel

is now even reached belgian palestinian activists took to the streets of brussels to show discontent demonstration is really prime minister's visit to belgium. correspondent. more. comes decision on jerusalem is clearly continuing to stir up trouble especially of israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu comes now to visit europe first for talks with the french president mark hall as well as for tossed with his easy to call leagues for specifically e.u. foreign policy chief morgan really as well as european foreign ministers now he was matched by protesters in belgium and france and yet netanyahu expected it seems his european counterparts to follow in trump's footsteps he did expect some kind of support when it comes to this issue even having thrown around the word hypocrisy but we have seen that the e.u. foreign policy chief among greeny has basically indicated that netanyahu should

hold his horses when it comes to the issue of jerusalem saying that quote here he should keep his expectations for others we've seen quite a similar story unravel in paris with the french president michael ware both michael and something else we just talked about peace however it was quite clear that their vision of the path towards this peace is completely different it's always been our capital in jerusalem has never been the couple of any other people so i think the sooner the problem students come to grips with this where we do the sooner we will move towards peace and this is why i think president from samoa was stored and so important for peace and i expressed to prime minister netanyahu my disappointment of the u.s. president's declaration and explained the france sees it as a contrary to international law and as dana. as for peace because it doesn't seem to serve. the cause of security for israel and for these release them selves to be

clear netanyahu has not really received a lot of support on this issue from other leaders in europe along them of course german chancellor angela merkel here in the u.k. british prime minister to resign may has also made it quite clear that this is not an idea that is very popular here and that both merkel of course and me have made it clear that they don't think this announcement is going to be good in terms of the decades long attempts to try to come to some kind of viable solution to the israeli palestinian question now here in london we've also seen the metropolitan police as well as emergency services conduct some kind of training for the first time in a foreign embassy and this was an israeli embassy they were they were basically training and preparation for a chemical attack they were saying that this was has nothing to do with the latest developments when it comes to jerusalem but also in europe really passions have been flying when it comes to this issue and left and right there been several

instances for one we've seen in sweden a couple hundred protesters come out on the streets with anti israeli messages we've seen in another lens an attack took place at a really restaurant by a man carrying a palestinian flag really other examples as well so it's clear that this is an issue and this announcement from trump has so far really just stirred a lot of trouble. for the u.s. police brutality is making headlines again after body come footage was recently released showing an officer fatally shooting. incident last year in the state of arizona i must warn you may find this video coming up disturbing.

police were called to the hotel after is reported a man had been seen pointing a gun out of his window the weapon was actually in real life for the victim twenty six showed daniel shaver had been drinking with friends in his hotel room he was showing them is a rifle which witnesses thought may have been a lethal weapon. mark geragos who's representing the victim's family said it's the most terrific shooting he's ever seen but the jury acquitted the officer of murder a month later charges last thursday human rights activist randy short believes the officers claims that he felt threatened don't quite hold up first and foremost said officer was with the group of other people with gun there was no way that that man

even if he had a weapon was going to be able to overcome that many people with body armor with high powered automatic weaponry it is a fantasy and a a a sick joke that the officer claimed to fear for his life it was excessive force it was an execution i believe that many officers are psychologically unstable they're dangerous people and essentially they have a license to kill so for now i'll be back with the latest news headlines see you at the top of the hour. we felt like when you all know it's coming to inspect our property if somebody would've been told me that i'm going to spend my life for two plank of it as i will destroy it closer to the salt it was clear we see.
