and there are now are now reports from police that at least seventeen people have been killed in that shooting at a florida high school twelve of the deceased victims were found inside that school building while two were found just outside and one in the street in nearby to more died of their wounds and it was a hospital scores of injured have been hospitalized reportedly three of them are in critical condition the school is marjorie stoneman douglas high in park lane florida the area that is generally known for its low crime rate so. we also spoke to gino loaded political analyst and psychology expert who said people who

commit such crimes tend to be socially isolated. loner thing is a big one we find out almost all the time that this person is a loner that they don't have a lot of friends that they tend to isolate themselves very intentionally and you know for parents and for schools alike that's always a warning sign. you know we'll tend to find that some of these people have given some science a once in a while though we get somebody who there has been no science nobody could see anything the child was relatively social so again you can't across the board draw any real conclusions on the type of person that's going to do this but it looks like what we know with this particular student right now it also sounds like he knew the his way around the school which means additional deaths unfortunately because he knows how to get in and get out of the school obviously he knew it was a gun free zone so there weren't going to be guns protecting the students in their

make schools a rich target for a crazed killer like this. we now have video showing the swat team has evacuated students from their classroom let's take a look. here will be. ready. to do it all the way. you can see there as the police were entering the room students were told to put their hands up to make sure that there were no additional weapons in the room but you could also see that the students were visibly shaken and we discussed the issue with rick sterling investigative journalist who thinks a culture of violence in the u.s. is encouraged by policy at the highest level. well it's not hard to obtain weapons in the united states one can do it through a friend or through an online or go to a gun show or or there's all sorts of ways to obtain guns there's a. big problem here is that prevalence of weapons another problem is the prevalence

of a violent set but at the state level in we know that the new budget that that's being implemented increases the military by eighty billion dollars so already we have the united states spending more on that on the military than the next eight countries combined just the increase in the u.s. military spending is more than the entire russian military budget eighty billion dollars just imagine if that eighty billion dollars was put to positive uses promoting conflict resolution. putting using it for improving social needs and resolving conflict instead of promoting violence and military solutions we might see a dramatic decline in these kinds of incidents. this is a developing story and of course our news room is keeping across that we will keep you updated as new details become available but now let's take

a look at some other news making headlines around the world this hour the. u.s. is now joining in the chorus of growing concern coming out of europe over foreign eisel fighters returning to their home shores washington urged its allies particularly britain to pay more attention to citizens who fled to europe to join the terrorist organization earlier the u.k. defense secretary said they should not be allowed to return home. i don't think they should ever set food in this country again they turned their back on britain values average and we stand for then the wars of the wars we're working with the coalition on foreign fighter detainees and generally expect these detainees to return to their country of origin for just position when other british officials suggested extreme measures be taken to the administer for international development said that the only way to deal with returning fighters was to kill them for now

though i still terrorists of u.k. origin who come home are facing prison sentences while some other european countries have tried to reintegrate former eisel fighters back into society in denmark. have even received apartments and jobs to promote reintegration. earlier we heard opposing views from our guests on how to deal with returning. initially britain said we're going to make them stateless remove their passports not going to allow them reentry other countries then said let's take a more light approach some of the nordic nations said let's try to repatriate them have cut radicalisation programs which in part have actually been quite successful in some areas at the same time then the u.s. is now taking the lead and the u.s. defense said foreign countries need to repatriate their own citizens and deal with them using the rule of law and i think that's the sense way to go they should not come back here it's as simple as that because they've committed the crimes abroad so why should the church. foot the bill all this rehabilitation and all the.

probably the there in jail for quite a while the cost move only when these crimes have been committed of course let the authorities deal with it to the rule of law in them. you know there are lots of different stories about what happens to these people if we make them stateless stenciling they will stay out there they will keep breeding extremism terrorism and radicalization and they'll keep killing and they'll keep hating us so we have it's a problem have to deal with you can't hide from it you cannot fall back on this british passport so you know i committed atrocities abroad but all four were british passport into the mix so i get sent back oh no how do you know people have committed crimes without putting the evidence in front of them and putting them on trial just to assume people went out there so i don't want to go out of here i'm in london regularly on trial i could go on in my own regularly well these are obviously the the un is so weak. the you again is so weak just nonexistent the should have. should about the un peacekeeping forces making safe and so we

could properly categorize these people. so ok these people go into fight for whichever side these people fight. against but now because they fight for the kids to be classed here it becomes a ridiculous situation. on the u.k.'s plane exit from the european union. the british foreign secretary boris johnson has given an update on divorce negotiations with the e.u. which many have criticized for lack of progress and whose looks move as more. this is the first in a series of six speeches to be made by cabinet members in the next three weeks boris johnson has opened a series of speeches in titled road to brics it and it was an address aimed at persuading people who do think that leaving the e.u. is a very good idea that it's actually all about hope and opportunity but in the same breath saying that reversing that decision would be a very bad idea here is a fear that some people are becoming ever more determined to stop brics it to

reverse the referendum vote of june twenty third twenty sixteen and to frustrate the will of the people i believe that would be a disastrous mistake that would lead to permanent and in the radical feelings of betrayal is identifies three main fears that people who don't want to leave the they talk about security the fear that the threats it would cost the u.k. attributes to fend for itself they talk about it being a pulling up of the drawbridge that breaks it is synonymous with xenophobia and also of course economic worries that britain would be worse off outside a single market and the customs union said johnson this morning tried to address those fears in turn the consensus is a speech that as i say was long on a waffle and slightly off color jokes but very short on detail which is arguably what might make some remain as change their minds about bret's it on twitter of course opposition m.p.'s were very quick to point this out yvette cooper said that with thirteen months to go what we need is this is

a not bluster and david lammy made a similar point we've heard it all before a few bad jokes and a few long words even boris himself was sounding a little bit desperate by the end he hears under a hail of questions from journalists enough of your sweet nothings with the clarity do you think that you are the right person to be reaching out to. those remain as do you why this uncertain approach to the with feeding this country is because we have a pm who won't say she'll vote for it today some of the anger that's fueled remains has come from here in government i except that this morning i'm not going to. persuade everybody but i've got to i've got to try and i've got to make the effort but is in the end these are people's feelings and people's feelings matter to questions remain that were also asked today's media conference and that is whether boris is the man to deliver this message and of course whether it's actually too

little too late. america's top diplomat has assured his middle eastern counterparts the donald trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as the israeli capital will not affect the city's borders or holy sites rex tillerson gave those assurances on it relations building tour across the middle east important to note that when president truman made his decision regarding the drizzling he also made two very important points as well one of which was. where he was not advocating for any changes to the status quo is to oversee the holding holy sites and secondly he made clear that the positions on the final boundaries are borders of jerusalem is that is a matter that's left for the parties to negotiate and discuss well back in december president trump threw his support behind israel's claims over the city of jerusalem saying that the u.s. would move its embassy there from tel aviv now the move was condemned by world leaders and of the u.n.

and start violent protests around the globe. i. was. was. really was really. good. we spoke to palestinian politician dmitri dewani he doubts the tillerson strip will help improve relations with countries already angered by trump's move. this is doesn't go beyond a public relations effort after the the mess that was caused by trump's decision on declaration on drugs from back in december i don't think you will be successful known to be a lightweight in the u.s.

foreign policy especially pertaining to the middle east as he admitted himself the peace plan that he talks about and it's only he have seen it he have seen points of it and that these are his words so in other words the secretary of state has no idea what he's talking about. also on other side we know that how the donald trump runs his white house there was that like a corporation and he is the only one with the ideas he's on i want to take credit for everything but he will push fairly on everybody else and i believe that to listen to his involvement at this point that just in case something goes bust which things are going that way in that direction in the middle east this really comes to the peace process or the nonexistent peace process i think tillerson is here just to get the blame later on that's all. reports that the american led coalition in

syria has killed dozens of russian mercenaries have led to headlines raising the specter of direct u.s. russia confrontation moscow has now responded to those claims. russian citizens might be in syria but they don't belong to russia's armed forces. citizens once again we're calling on everyone not to move on and functional foods information and serious approach in describing such an important issue to me because also suggested all media sources to reach out to russia's defense ministry to various five facts before publishing and asked for the us side the world there has been no confirmation coming from there on the contrary the u.s. defense secretary said that he has no information that the russian army servicemen were and low of the casualties following the u.s. air strikes now a number of reports first appeared on different social media platforms last week suggesting that anywhere from several dozens to up to several hundred russian

mercenaries were killed in syria and the reports of alleged russian casualties were very quickly picked up by different international media sources including the bloomberg c.n.n. and the daily mail the new york times and many others so as it stands for now there has been no confirmation provided it's a regarding the story of. a week ago pro-government forces in syria were attacked by the u.s. led coalition near the euphrates river the coalition says it was responding to an unprovoked attack on the syrian democratic forces headquarters there who are fighting the government these are some of the survivors being treated at a local hospital. in france out of almost a two thousand non-citizens who travel to join islamic state in the middle east intelligence sources say that sixty seven came from one particular paris suburb or to travel to bensky travel there for us. a short train right from paris is trapped

on the surface there's nothing much to set it aside from the thousands of other towns in the country but you don't have to scratch very deep to see that trap is very different so you won't see any non butcher shops there were i think at the moment over fifteen hundred prayer rooms and five mosques if you look at people on the street you won't see couples holding hands you'll see the women are dressed in strict islamic dress. there's a lot of home schooling so you couldn't really consider trap the typical french town anymore it's a little bit like a state within the state for decades it's been considered a magnet for muslim fundamentalists hardline salafism and one hobby is a widely practiced and trap has become so.
