turkey's shelling of the kurdish held african region marks the start of its military operation in syria it comes despite washington now denying claims it planned to support a large kurdish border force that claims that enraged and current. congress members of the our government more secretive. teenager has attacked a school in eastern the five bierria injuring six people including a teacher is the third such incident in less than a week. and in germany the bride leading n.a.f.t. parties proposal to verify the age of my current that is roundly condemned by all other parties.

a very warm welcome you are watching us and international with me at mccarran good to have you with us this hour the turkish defense minister has announced his country has launched a military operation in syria's kurdish controlled african region starting with cross border shelling paula syria has more on how events unfolded. hearing from the turkish defense minister that a de facto turkish military operation has begun across its border now this is been corroborated by the syrian kurds the white who say that since those day night some seventy shells have been fired by the turkish military on to their villages now it's one of the only a statement by the turkish president and the one in which he said that the united states has admitted to establishing a terrorist army on the turkish syrian border any chord on the united states to

deal with that terror at its infrastructure and these comments by the turkish president so infuriated could see living in the afan region that earlier they took to the streets also they were protesting against what we see happening slowly on the ground which is turkish tanks needing to little blue water this is what citizens of africa have to say. right now our freedom will be the ones graveyard today hundreds of thousands are protesting to tell him that the people of our friend will never leave their land. the international community should send a message to turkey telling them to stop we have bought the white b.g. and so we can do. well this comes after the statement that the coalition forces were working closely with the syrian democratic forces to establish and train a new syrian border security force but what we've seen happening is the american administration backpedaling now on plans to establish such

a border force essentially after it created such a huge and furious backlash from america's close ally turkey the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson has said that the entire issue has been misspoke trade and misdescribed the u.s. state department has this to say is he saying that when the pentagon says we're going to try to commit forces because the people that took that long or is he just just being ok i would i would have to refer you to the department of defense on that i think they. we're clear in the statement that they put out so let me just refer you to them on that. part but i'm asking the closest audience yesterday we said there's no border security force that's not what it is like i have to refer you to the turkish government about what they became so concerned about and the fact that somebody misspoke and i'm not going to name any names and neither is the secretary but somebody clearly just misstated their policy it's as simple as that the situation is extremely tense on the ground and it has the possibility of

igniting into something much bigger so i think what it does so us is that words have the potential to ignite a potential war as we discuss the latest tensions between the u.s. and turkey with international relations professor so mawa key believes we're currently seeing damage control being carried out by to lessen the trump administration is trying to limit the damage that was caused to the turkish american relations with this new american movie establishing this border me on the pretext of protecting the border the syrian border with iraq and with the turks the reason to be worried about the national security of thirty specially because of the themselves as allies of the united states or whatever the united states is doing what the. an infringement on on that national security so i believe that this is a critical issue for the turks and i don't believe that the. naacp

against such an american state. a teenager has attacked a school in eastern siberia injuring six people including a teacher. ran into the costs and inflicted injury support free school children and a teacher to the next a child risk. and a blow to the face another one was struck on the back and another girl lost something. the girl said she received a text message from the boy's tummy tag to schools that she should not go to class mornings that there will be blood. i don't know that something more scared he was

still interested to hear. all about summit a string of similar attacks throughout russia this week jacqueline verga has the details. the past five days have seen a frightening trend creeping up in russia with three different attacks occurring at schools. those cases the young perpetrators used basic weapons not an axis as that was likely all that they had at their disposal and a disturbing online trend may also link these incidents our sources believe that violent online groups that center around tragedies like the columbine high school massacre may also be a common factor just to remind you the columbine tragedy took place in the u.s. back in one thousand nine hundred ninety two students armed to the teeth killed twelve of their classmates and a teacher and that horrific massacre is apparently inspiring violence and children

who weren't even born when it happened it's so popular that the followers of such groups even have a name for themselves columbine years now russia's version of facebook called v.k. has dozens of these pages open to all we did a simple quick search and found scores of them with post that promote violent behavior things like describing the power someone feels when they have a gun in their hands one of the alleged perpetrators of monday's incident has been confirmed to be a follower of such pages and today's and wednesday's instance are being looked into see if the same is true for them as of today russian officials have announced that they will begin shutting down pages with extremist content the communications watchdog groups and social media which call for violence in schools it will be undertaken under the criteria of terrorism extremism and then. to commit suicide but the question remains if closing pages will really be enough in the long run especially given that a number of students have already taken the next stop and used violence against their classmates. the right leaning alternative for germany oas the party has

proposed verifying the age of all migrants coming to the country and i did as. been roundly condemned by all other parties in the bundestag on for more on this canal quest live to peta other valleys in berlin for peta germany's political parties have been struggling to form a coalition but the f.t. aside they seem pretty united in slamming this proposal that may. well if alternative for germany thought that getting into parliament was going to be the hard part they've certainly been brought down to earth with a bump over the last couple of days as parliament's reconvened for the twenty eight hundred session in berlin the f.d.a. put forward the changes to the law that would have seen those who are applying to have family reunification through asylum requiring to prove that children were of an age that they were deemed they were supposed to be they were claiming to be also

to they would be for this more stringent checks on who people were when they arrived in the country that they were who they said they were this was turned upon by the other parties within the bundestag every single one of them to a man saying that the alternative for germany was wrong in doing this and in fact when the proposals were put forward they were greeted by bruce in the chamber. when jets condominium act one could get the impression our position is close to that of the air but if you just look through their proposal and listen to what they're seeing here you realize that it's all about attacking migrants. and the proposal of the air he is permeated with right populism it took nor the reality getting it into law who ever seen the wording of the proposal and heard the speech of the f.t. representative will recognize instantly that it's not about the improvement of age

verification but about stirring up animosity against young migrants and the kind of rhetoric were heard from the goes against our christian values it's all about hate what's foreigners and this we cannot support. we have to remember we still don't have a government here in germany following september's election the one thing it does seem though that all of the parties can agree on they can agree to even pretend to like each other enough to form a coalition but the one thing that they can agree on is that they disagree with alternative for germany we saw this again on thursday when they put forward that. perhaps rise in the met ic attacks in germany had to do with the the increase in the number of islamic immigrants that have come to the country the rest of the party saying that no. semitism in germany had its roots in the far right and pointed those fingers right back at a day so those from the alternative to germany party the populist right wing party

here that made its way into parliament for the first time in september if they thought that getting in there was going to be the hard part they've certainly been brought down to earth with a bump on seeing how their fellow parliamentarians are going to be treating them. ok thanks that pay two thousand pieces all of it with the details. well it's not only the german parliament that the f.d.a. is having a rough ride recently the facebook accounts of one of its members was blocks following her call the people to join a women's march against rapes and killings perpetrated by migrant i organized a women's march to the chancery almost every day we read about horrific rapes and murder of women the more women come the more pressure it will put on merkel and politicians from the old parties together but it's take to the streets to fight for our right to freedom and some determination despite belonging to

a party known for its strong anti migrant rhetoric layla bilger who's a women's and children's rights activist a regularly travels to syria and iraq to help people there she live like when origen herself and was surprised at the official reason for her facebook. as going to facebook up to shorten my troubles with facebook started a few years ago facebook has a big issue with women and migrant backgrounds only you can notice that i don't have a nordic location or can see that i am originally from the south and here in germany i find a human rights which isn't always easy in islamic countries people like me are silenced by. this i have a certain popularity and quite a large following i was blocked for thirty days then my account was deleted but that wasn't the first time my accounts have now been purged four times and since i am a member of the air of d. which in germany files for women's rights i am a nuisance for facebook and the mainstream media it was banned under the new law that forces social media to delete offensive content within twenty four hours after

receiving a complaint otherwise companies would face huge fines early this month the deputy leader of the alternative for germany party saw her facebook and twitter account suspended after she criticized the country's police for saying happy new year in arabic. again says people who express their anger at migrant policies in germany are seeing their voices file a strong line. the problem is you know the policy of the german government and especially of the older parties is intended to help young men from islamic or african countries get settled in europe and to accept their religion and culture for this reason and german citizen who has lived here forever is being ignored and in the case of facebook or twitter it works like this they censor all critical statements even though they are consistent with the real situation of course it runs against the mainstream political line in germany for this reason they try to silence all critics of the german government's asylum policy. the us

ambassador to the un nikki haley claims that the trump administration's policy in afghanistan is working with pace being closer than ever however the un recently reported that almost half a million people were displaced in the country in two thousand and seventeen alone let's have a look at some of the latest pictures from afghanistan. think like you look at. the us powerfully on afghanistan is working. on the we are all were victims of the bombing is ongoing our violence a lot of houses destroyed several villages about sixty seven thousand displaced families are living in this camp. but i think. we're closer to talks with the taliban and the peace process than we've seen before

i'd like to get your money i want as we were the taliban and i said we're fighting each other with them government forces launched a military operation against our houses were destroyed our lifestyle. this is what. we do not want afghanistan to be a safe haven for terrorism any more and so we continue to go down that path twenty one international terrorist groups operating in this country dozens of suicide bombers are being sent we are under siege we do everything we can to combat terrorism. particularly has to pretend that us policy is working because she's loyal follower of donald trump she can't say that donald trump's policy is not working his policy is very similar to obama's except to do is now sending another four thousand troops so soon there will be something

like fourteen thousand u.s. troops instead of money so that's a sign that the old policy wasn't working but it's not at all clear that the new policy of sending more troops will work the trouble is that writers five or ten years ago the main opponents were the taliban and since then we've had people coming into the picture there was. we don't work there was. the third group that's come up in the last five years it's i guess i says they've been conducting some very dramatic suicide bombings in kabul itself so that kabul itself has become much less safe than it used to be we'll be back after this short break. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.

all see we have a great team we need to strengthen before the freefall world cold and you're better than a legend to keep it so it's at the back. in one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and i'm hoping to bring some of that winning spirit to the r.c.c. . recently i've had a lot of practice so i can guarantee you that peter schmeichel will be on the best form since my last world cup i was in the throws were three. thousand zero zero zero zero zero russia. nice drive. no left left left more or less ok stop that's really good.

comeback drug related crimes are becoming so bad in parts of the paris metro that train drivers are reportedly refusing to stop at certain stations as according to written by a union representing the metro and bus network in the french capital the db and ski went underground to see what those food is all based on. for most parisians the metro is a staple of life with its winding tunnels and lines that stretch across the city it's often the easiest way to get from a to b. but down in the underground the gritty underbelly of the capital is being exposed drug related crime and violence has been a long standing issue on purpose as metro but now the unions representing the train drivers say it's inspiring out of control dealers and muses including those

taking crack cocaine a new god thing what they've doing. lighting up metro drivers is so fearful of attacks at some stations many are choosing to long to stop there a survivor more for survivor more quickly is very dangerous and it's terrifying if it can range from a simple punch to people using nails knives. stations like marks and market a year are especially troubled druggy says come here for their daily fix and gangs have taken over. the problem is very dangerous for both the metro workers and for the commuters is even more dangerous they are targets of fast i've seen more than one hundred attacks take place. within minutes of arriving in mark's door metro station we witnessed what looks like

a drug deal the man with his back to the camera has just arrived with a bag in her hand he was the platform stopping and exchanging some packages with people and then he left with his bag empty this seems to be the new normal. there are lots of drug users and i think that with everything that's happening in the matter of this should be doing something most of the time the drug users are aggressive and. everyone is afraid for the security of my children. twenty twenty five. lived there we will reverse of course. been attacked just one time because. we had in the middle of the night. smart for. playing with that problem was a precipice a problem as the security robberies can happen sometimes it's maybe aggression

physical aggression sometimes do by ceasar man attack another young man. as we traveled through some of the most dangerous stations we saw metro security and police trying to crack down on the problem this exceeded in moving this bunch along but in reality all they've done is move the problem to another stop on to another day jollity you can ski r.t. paris. tensions are high between striking french prison guards and riot police after officers fired tear gas at the protesters earlier in the day as a jail on corsica to prison guards were injured in a stabbing attack by an inmate who had reportedly been radicalised inside here's what a french prison union told us about the instant our union is aware that a serious incident to police in borger bruson radical inmate brutally attacked two

of our colleagues. french prisons have suffered several similar attacks on guards in recent days a week ago three security staff were injured after an inmate attacks there with scissors and a razor blade and on monday as another jail seven guards were attacked by an inmate in that case according to the ministry of justice the perpetrator had again been radicalized in prison inmates violence disobedience and radicalization have triggered a nationwide strike of french prison guards who have in turn clashed with riot police. was.

one of the striking dancers in minding the authorities do something about the dangerous conditions in french jails r.t. france spoke to a representative of a prison guard unit and. said love. the government our representatives are to blame they don't want to discuss the problem to find a solution to our poor working conditions we demand an increase in the number of prison guards and also the creation of a special high security wing radicalize prisoners. for people have filed a lawsuit against the city of berkeley in california and this university for injuries they claim they received during riots on the campus there last year the violence erupted over a speech that was due to be given on campus by a prominent conservative. i. i.

i. i. i. i. i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i. i i i i i. i. always spoke to katrina radio shaima who's taking legal steps against to university she believes they can pass on the city's police took insufficient action during the protests but when the attack started especially after i was pepper sprayed i was completely incapacitated there was nothing i could do to defend

myself so i had no choice but to turn around and just face the barricade i was worried about what was happening to my husband it turned out he was just a few feet away from me being beaten worse than any of us he was beaten unconscious afterwards by the police both the city and the campus police were clearly inadequate given what happened then the injuries that were sustained what i saw personally it was police initially standing outside of the building that they later locked us out of i saw them there they acknowledged with a wave and by the time the attack actually started they were nowhere to be seen they had locked themselves inside the building and wouldn't give us any aid at all the university of california berkeley has declined to comment and the city of buckley previously filed court motion. seeking to dismiss a similar case the lawyer representing the victims it says they want to send a message to campus staff and police to do a better job the injuries caused to her clients two of which were beaten

unconscious and still suffer from psychological disorders post-traumatic disorders so they are seeking money damages to compensate them for that but the main goal of this case is to send the message campus police and fantasy universities that they they have to do their job you know i like him what happened here the deliberate effort to not intervene and to not do anything to fire a man watching a building on fire with their with their hoses water pouring out of them but they're too afraid to go into the building because they might get hurt it's the goal of law enforcement it's the role of law enforcement i should say to serve and protect the public and they did not do that. for those who like to live life on the edge has a story of a bridge in eastern siberia damaged by fire and with his wooden planks rotting away the five hundred meter river crossing is amazingly still brave by fifteen hundred
