back in july after months of fierce fighting and as strikes some forty thousand homes need to be rebuilt or repaired the cording to the u.n. the government says it needs some eighty eight billion dollars in reconstruction funds for areas devastated by war as some that it aims to raise that occurred a conference this to say underway in kuwait however the u.s. which is expected to attend says it has no plans to contribute money to u.s. government making an announcement times of usually because i'm not aware of any announcements that we will be making and i can tell you overall. over the past few years we have spent the united states government has one point seven billion dollars in humanitarian aid in iraq alone after the kong for the pakistan institute for conflict and security studies i think that there is a high risk of a new insurgency if iraq is not rebuilt quickly. the sunni population are already there are marginalized by the shia led government and they're actually in
3:31 pm
the previous some years that led to the insurgency and i.s.i. is capitalized on that now there is another group recently we have some reports that another group is emerging just like i.s.i. yes in some parts of iraq saw the emergence of another insurgency that may not be. that may have another them on their guard if the iraqi government is unable to rebuild these sunni areas visual badly destroyed during this fight. russian athletes have won their second medal at the winter olympics in south korea a silver in the figure skating with canada getting goals and the u.s. bronze the medal was secured by a fifteen year old alina ziggy to the who is making his debut at the games but a fellow athletes not actually competing was far from complimentary on her twitter account a twenty six year old american figure skater ashley wagner accused the russian
3:32 pm
silver medalist of killing time in her program and condemned the attack takes in which she was gems for the second half of the routine and the remarks have sparked a furious reaction online i personally disagree that this wasn't a program it matches the belly of relatively well maybe you're just jealous you can't compete with that stamina and those jumping passes your face looks to be green with envy it's just your envy you can jump like that in the second half and even in the first i know you're just trolling but also to we got reaction from russian coaches on martin's comments who told us it's points that win prizes. actually a good little should not do all those who couldn't get ashley wagner has done a lot of the risky she's an outstanding athlete the rules for the competitions have changed and it's like accounting we simply need to point it's not about beauty in order to win you need to do what alina is a good of
3:33 pm
a decent today but the social as well as the competitive side there's also the social aspect to the games with most nations hosting their own hospitality how this is their no russia of course isn't officially represented at the olympics but there's still a corner of plank china that feels very much russian as been finding out. as usual there are all kinds of national houses at the olympics and young chang the likes of the hall and house near the coast the countries like austria and switzerland naturally settled a bit higher in the mountains and since team russia doesn't officially exist here the traditional russian house doesn't either or isn't that a mature orsha. to make sure russian fans have a home in korea it took a few tricks after all the i.o.c.
3:34 pm
must be respected the place is called the sports house obviously you find wife blue and red in the design but never specifically and the recognizable pattern like here's white and black in between what could appear to be flag stripes no official russian symbols the mentors because i haven't become official right other than that pure i ration fun and spirit. among the attractions here are these hockey jersey from every year at the olympics that russia one goes but this one from nine hundred ninety two like here in korea
3:35 pm
you won't find the letters russia or the u.s.s.r. i will ask the guests if they know why or why did russia compete under a neutral flag at the olympics twenty six years ago and see the money was on own voice you see believe it was increased. and i don't know sorry. i don't know just i got some clues for you countries take turns with the way. i mean respect to the i.o.c. saying it was installed ok you know i know i think it's. funny i meant i getting old for that patton isn't the same reason that. told me i don't think so no i think it's. the third with russia let's just establish is a country so being unique left russia was just established as a country that's when the soviet union. suddenly had its break up
3:36 pm
so neutral flags weren't always down to the i.o.c. sanctions. have a drink go our tea young chang well even travelling to see one of the world's largest sporting events can prove to be challenging especially with similar sounding korean cities on everyone's lips.
3:37 pm
a former terrorist suspect gains access to security soft spots in london's heathrow airport we've got the story for you after this short break. that's. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. somebody wanted.
3:38 pm
to go right to be this is what the three of the more people. interested always in the logs. there should be. thanking. them back one of the world's busiest airports london's heathrow in the u.k. is being accused of luck security a former terrorist suspect with
3:39 pm
a string of criminal convictions was reportedly given access to sensitive areas like the runway with no background checks made and associates i can i picked up the story. another highly concerning incident circulating in the press here in the u.k. it's been reported that a former terrorist suspect and a criminal with seventeen a we assess was able to get a job at heathrow airport which is in fact one of the busiest airports in the country without as what's being described as proper security and background checks and being able to allegedly get as close to things like luggage area as well as airplanes it's being reported that this thirty one year old man had a criminal record lasting over a decade including for things like threats to kill robbery money laundering and assault now he has been reported to have spent five years behind bars previously and it said that he was interviewed by anti-terrorist fishelson as much as five
3:40 pm
times in the last two years now those charges against him were dropped however he must have been on some kind of watch list following all of those developments however this is exactly what is raising questions as to how this story was even able to unravel now curiously this man worked as a kitchen porter in the business and first class lounges at heathrow airport and he himself has said that the fact that he was able to do so is a disgrace and he was trying to show a loophole in the security system the security procedures are a disgrace and need to be exposed i'm not an extremist a terrorist i love and want to protect i can't believe how close they can get to the planes and luggage i can believe starts you through don't get checked it's crazy well it seems that heathrow airport officials seem to believe that there's not very much to worry about in relation to those developments. conditions of.
3:41 pm
the individual to be constantly school. was also subject to robust and. each time he gained access to certain areas we've contacted the metropolitan police who have told us that they would not discuss such matters now it has to be said that this man's temporary pass was active for just several days it's been since been revoked and he no longer has this job but however the fact that this even came out of course raises lots of questions about the state of security especially this not being the first time that something like this unravels the former head of britain's national counterterrorism security office chris phillips says at ports must make sure all employees at hit to security requirements. all apple should really be making sure that conferences are checked. and accredited with the same degree all. accuracy as those people that work full time airports have been
3:42 pm
consistently used to targeted by terrorists and will be considered terror dogs and in the future insider it is one of the most dangerous things that we can face this is not just heathrow this is a problem worldwide if we want to keep yourself safe from with flying you we need to make sure that the airports and the airlines and the providers of services within airports are really doing their job to a credit. to make sure that they're not threats which. bitcoins rarely out of the news these days given the roller coaster ride it's giving investors the cryptocurrency the underlying technology is also making waves it's called block chain and it's used to help verify a transactions and prevent them from being tampered with by linking packets of digital data in the process and so the companies behind it is proving to be a boon with one recently raising a ten million dollars investment in just a few seconds ago from his sons who are going method c.-o.
3:43 pm
and it looks change for him in singapore. the i.c.a.o. phenomenon is breaking records and funding we found three projects that claim to want to make the world a better place and are raising funds one of them faced her on the last day of the conference got ten million dollars in twenty seconds breaking all past records they simply created a facial recognition surveillance software with artificial intelligence on the block chain platform creating something that is affordable and easy to use for the masses people can use this for just about anything operations concept as we go to working centralized solution right now can do anything like for example in a gaming institution we had the casinos say listen here the people coming in they want to ban themselves because they were gambling issues and then they come back in a gambling weed and haven't recognized them then they claim their money back it causes a big problem so we did proof of concept with them and even then in the low locking they really hitting ninety eight percent and i've got corporations around the world contacting me every day saying to integrate with you when you have your free istic a when you get the i.p.o. so we can link in to services to open to that view why you've managed to raise ten
3:44 pm
million in twenty seconds or these guys from the world bit app saying they are looking to help emerging economies to engage in commerce through augmented reality allowing you to interact with any product or service created around you are better the world is an augmented reality block chain application that we use in to really help emerging economies what we want to do is we want to talk to the artisans the moms and pops of the world that are in these emerging economies that don't get a fair shot at commerce and give them a tool to actually go ahead and reach consumers a farmer in the country reaching a potential customer in the city is now a reality then there are crypto venture companies that are literally looking for that special project that will decentralise and make the world's commerce more transparent will create a venture is a company that he created to promote i coach that. do have us intention to change the life of millions of people for the better we get him. very bored and
3:45 pm
people we seem to feel technicians ex-president. politicians to really make him understand what this is all about that is here to stay that is not going to go anywhere but the leading crypto market analyst has a completely different view when i see those i try to convince people to be very careful about investing in any i c.e.o.'s because it's other people trying to convince you to give them your hard earned money as an unqualified of a third for their idea. since i would require. getting around regulation but i'm getting around regulation in a decentralized way that the government can not stop. i suppose there are not that centralized means to get around regulation which is sooner or later they're going. well he wants more we're going to need show had to help you out you can watch

3:49 pm
action or advance here we're going underground as the managing director of the i.m.f. christine lagarde convicted of corruption in a paris court visits qatar in the persian gulf coming out of the show as u.s. drone strikes on the poorest country in the middle east triple donald trump we speak to a journalist on the ground in southern about the saudi british and american bombs that are killing civilians in yemen and for yet fake news what about fake history we speak to the director of earrings and forget about the real life rambo drawing the cia to kill innocent civilians in south america and exposed u.s. government drug smuggling in southeast asia plus why a british prison is less short and more monty python and we ask a former prisoner what life is like in the u.k.
3:50 pm
jail system one which even tony blair's fall below china. charlie fork says is in crisis all the civil coming up in today's going underground but first it's exactly one week since the death of a homeless man was reported in the center of the city of bristol in the south west of england found unconscious just outside a department store emergency services including police and paramedics were called but despite their best efforts he died shortly afterwards reportedly he had suffered serious injuries and was in the doorway of the store the thing is that just over a year ago another homeless man michael angle was found dead in the same area it was again covered by the local bristol post newspaper with accompanying similar pictures front by emergency services attended to the man at the scene except things are arguably different today the favorite to be the next british prime minister to much criticism in the elite mainstream media not only questions minority government leaders resume about homelessness in announced a policy on it in the last few days we would give local authorities the power to
3:51 pm
take over deliberately kept empty properties because there's something grossly insulting about the idea you'd build some luxury block it would have the pictures all around us here of london deliberately keep it empty knowing that with the property price inflation the investor is going to make ten twelve percent a year maybe less these days well maybe a deal to maybe a bit less money you know the you know make sure going to make a fair amount out of it surely we have to have a social objective in a social priority in our society but could democratically accountable politicians really take private property in british cities the e.u. documentation on human rights is so clear that it's even produced a paper explaining so called the european convention on human rights and property rights article one states that every natural or legal person is entitled to the peaceful enjoyment of his possessions no one should be deprived of his possessions except in the public interest and subject to the conditions provided for by law and
3:52 pm
by the general principles of international law wouldn't big. use the european convention to destroy corbin's plans to recapture the railways the n.h.s. that load homes under democratic control likely for corbin and he has this politician who may well enable his plans to turn into action he or she is even while campaigning to remain in the european union arguing for britain to trash the european court of human rights easy h r combines the hands of parliament it's nothing to ask prosperity makes us less secure by preventing the deportation of dangerous foreign nationals and does nothing to change the attitudes of governments like russia when it comes to human rights so regardless of the e.u. referendum my view is this if we want to reform human rights laws in this country it isn't you we should leave but the c.h.r. on the jurisdiction of its koch well u.k. prime minister theresa may certainly appears not to be so concerned about human rights abuses when it comes to her selling arms to saudi arabia they're being used
3:53 pm
to bomb the poorest country in the middle east and the un has called yemen the world's worst humanitarian crisis thousands of children are being killed hundreds of thousands injured and millions are in need of humanitarian aid joining me now is a journalist in the yemeni capital of sanaa hussein hussein thanks so much for joining us it's been reported that a. cameraman a t.v. has been killed by a factor u.k. backed saudi bombing how dangerous is it to be a journalist in yemen actually is very very dangerous especially when the coalition use a technique called the strike they normally most of the strike they target an area either the military or as well civilians they waited five five six minutes and then they targeted again and after ten minutes they do it again and this is always actually they targeted. as who come to the safe who have fair. who
3:54 pm
haven't been killed in this strike specially as will journalists and you mentioned this a journalist is not the first one i think there are about a mine journalist who has been killed by the saudi director airstrike and i think this is the way because the saudi think that they can commit all this crime all this strike and the only thing that can hold them accountable a journalist so they try to target them again the targeted skewer to kill as many civilians as they can and not allowing journalists to come into yemen if they are really. not afraid of what they're doing in yemen then they will a journalist to come easily saudi arabia seldomly gives us a statement to this program they have denied to other sources they deliberately target journalists or indeed. there is double tap strikes i mean people know maybe a bit about saudi arabia but what about any proof the british bombs are killing
3:55 pm
people in yemen of course amnesty international has released many reports one of them is about saudi air strike in the outskirts of sanaa targeted in a seventy factory and they believe they have killed and injured some workers and it was used in british bombs have been as well like maybe six months ago with the irish a journalist to yemen demining. you are to have seen they have collection of u.s. made cluster bomb as well british made cholesterol money ask them what kind of cluster bomb you mainly find across yemen especially in the north region of. the saudi border they say they are if not the u.s. made cluster bomb they are british made cluster bomb and this clearly that i believe that the independent the newspaper or other newspaper in britain have said
3:56 pm
that you know. that kingdom sales of. two saudi arabia during the war has increased five hundred percent just imagine they are actually making profit from this war the united states making but of it france making bit of it on the other hand they do want this war to stop this symbol is kind of business for them why would they stop the war in yemen. as well the saudi try to block journalists not to cover this use of weapons and british made bombs and thanks to the united kingdom and us who are actually given the saudi. supplies including g.p.s. coordinate honorable satellite footage and drones footage and fuel in the saudi jet on the sky of yemen if the saudi didn't have any of this they cannot conduct any air strike on yemen they cannot have a blockade in yemen the british government denies exporting cluster bombs right
3:57 pm
into drone strikes which you mentioned drones one of qatari network reported a u.s. drone strike at the end of last month killing six civilians in the core leading to must protests in shop were any confirmation of this because it hasn't been confirmed by other sources of drone strikes killing men women and children civilians of course they will deny that there are civilians being killed and it's really hard to prove that civilians are killed because they can call in a civilian and yemen al qaeda member but that strike and the raid that have. been conducted i believe last year the target in that village in the region in. that area was under the saudi led coalition controlled so we show you how an area under the control of the saudi that as they say have al qaeda training camp so how come it that you have in that in that area and there were women and children killed
3:58 pm
in that strike how can be a child. that's nine year old all twelve or six or seven be a member of al qaeda. only the strike that the united states is conducting that was early on in the trump presidency really think a u.s. service where was killed was the first casualty of any war the trumpet stream which beat actually engage and have you seen drone strikes numbers go up since to jump into the white house. the number according to like you as a newspaper site have troubled dude in combat and is not only drone strike on as they say or as they call it. terrorist target saudi newspaper called as one of the main newspaper in saudi. have conducted an interview with this book person of the been talkin called rankin and he's book about hundred forty u.s. a strike supporting the saudi led coalition and their money government which is based
3:59 pm
in riyadh those strike those a drone strike or strikes not. what they have declared before over two hundred forty strikes on al qaeda members those strikes in support of the saudi that coalition and there are fourteen thousand yemeni civilians who have been killed by a direct saudi led coalition air strike it means that the united states is responsible of many death and i can say that the united states and britain is responsible hundred percent of all civilians killed in yemen because thanks to the feuding jet thanks to the drone. footage. coordinated and laser target on all the smart bomb the saudis will not be able to target areas across yemen so they are responsible hundred percent and we remember on the twenty sixth of march in two thousand and fifteen the saudi war in yemen was not declared from riyadh or united arab emirates or any other country that and that
4:00 pm
officially in this coalition it was declared from washington d.c. . by the saudi ambassador then who is the foreign minister of the saudi just imagine that first of all it's declared from another country against a third country and to show you the total involvement of the united states and britain well we're told our mainstream media in britain that yes there is a war saudis involved britain really isn't britain and saudi are giving lots of aid there are million people living affected children affected by cholera we certainly don't give in this story or giving me this how how in the west when they when they support a country in a war they will make billions of dollars in arms sales as i mentioned that the u.k. . weapon says today to saudi has increased five times to the united arab emirates it could be as will the same so they make an billions of dollars in profit on the other hand they will get maybe ten million to twenty million pounds or daughter has been yemeni either through united.
