tera shell of the new humanitarian corridor in the syrian region of eastern goose are preventing civilians from relieving the war torn district. israeli soldiers arrest ten people in a raid on a palestinian village including a fifteen year old boy who severe head injury was allegedly inflicted by the i.d.f. two months ago. and a computer recycling expert in the us faces jail and a hefty fine for piloting microsoft software he says he was only trying to refurbish old p.c.'s. i think it was helping people extend the life cycle of their electronics to combat planned obsolescence and to make sure that we keep as much work the product out of landfills as possible.

this is r.t. international coming to you live from moscow i'm kate partridge thank you for joining us. under stars in syria where terrorists have shelled a new humanitarian corridor in the war ravaged district of eastern ghouta that's according to russia's defense ministry which helps set up the route before it was a time just minutes later he was meant to allow civilians to leave the area just outside the capital damascus. other pictures from the colorado checkpoint on the side of government controlled territory stooge of the terrorists shelling not a single civilian had been able to leave the area on tuesday r.t. arabic correspondent. is on the ground in damascus and has visited the checkpoint. at the had no civilians have come out of the corridor yet minutes after he was opened the area was shelled five time. times several syrian soldiers were injured

snipers have also been firing at those patrolling the corridor that could be why civilians are in using this route out. well eastern gates that has been occupied by various rebel and terror groups for years it's the area shaded in red on the map and located just outside the syrian capital violence there has recently escalated with both sides accusing each other of targeting civilians to the north is the dean districts where the humanitarian corridor was set up by russia while the humanitarian efforts to provide safe passage for those desperate to escape are being coordinated with the syrian red crescent buses and ambulances are on standby to evacuate civilians people inside the rebel enclave are being notified about the location of the card or by leaflets text alerts and loudspeakers first aid points have also been set up near the exits to help those in need of urgent medical assistance however despite these efforts it's feared civilians will be prevented by rebels from leaving the war zone i guess the it explains. civilians

dying they're dying from rebel shells from government bombs from bullets shrapnel and crossfire in damascus and in east ghouta the u.n. cease fire is dead on arrival no one stops shooting so the syrians are trying their own way humanitarian corridors backed by russia thousands of these leaflets being dropped over east ghouta by syrian helicopters there are instructions for civilians on how to get out of the war zone maps with arrows follow them if you dare women of all the jews and children reportedly continued to be forbidden by local armed groups from leaving the area for security reasons they've done it before in aleppo islam missed rebels wouldn't let anyone

out they shot at civilians trying to feed to government held areas they shelled humanitarian crossings and if you made it out that punish your relatives same story in ghouta this is being going on for years the evidence indicates that non-state armed groups in eastern guta and a bit to kill and josh islam are also responsible for inflating the price of food and other basic necessities they're arbitrarily restricting the movement of civilians wishing to leave and abducting and arbitrarily detaining people. you'd think this is important right all those pundits and activists screaming about good and not once have they asked the pertinent question i have not yet at the top we welcome the security council's decision regarding a ceasefire because of the burden on our families and he said this suffering must be lifted to the decision to stop the bloodshed caused by the regime in eastern

woman me along. when the regime is not abiding by the un resolution i cannot stand still and watch and defend myself and our families why are they still there despite their access to the spokes person of the army of islam the jihad this group that holds east ghouta they have not asked him why his group is blocking woman and kids from leaving a war zone it's good press for him to stand there and complain that innocents are dying while i'm eating that they're dying big because his own rebel fighters won't let them leave the armed groups inside east ghouta will not allow those people to leave i think human are you as you know a program that all these bloody war and in syria so it will continue i don't believe it will stop but definitely this according to human humility included or

actually could do it use that human casualties among those people the british foreign office invited the russian ambassador to the u.k. and xander yacov anchor to discuss the humanitarian situation in eastern gives her and afterwards he spoke exclusively with r.t. . of course you know we will be disappointed with the statements of the secretary johnson when he spoke yesterday at the parliament and he blamed russia for humanitarian situation and we said this is directly straight straightforward so we discuss with the british you know what the british could do in a practical terms but to support this resolution you know whom they could talk and what kind of signals they could send to the. you whether it's a neutral position or whatever to be on to people in order to save lives and i'll tell you that so that was a very pretty american conversation and i think that the minister duncan. here

received my message and he promised to send the right signals to the people with whom they are connecting on the ground in order to to have this cease fire and to fulfill the resume lucian from my point of view it was a very useful conversation we need the british and board but. of course as i said we don't accept the. the statements like the russians are guilty for the humanitarian situation where on the scene both were trying to do our best in order to release syria from the terrorists. well meanwhile the u.s. state department has also chimed in claiming russia isn't sticking to the un backed cease fire in syria and she says press briefing they also play moscow for continuing to support syrian president bashar al assad russia is certainly not

hearing to the cease fire they are not adhering to the cease fire because they continue to sponsor and back to charlotte sides government. auntie's washington correspondents american husband. russia has assured that the syrian army is following the ceasefire but militants are not even though foreign minister lavrov has called upon armed opposition groups to comply with the cease fire russia also set up a humanitarian corridor in eastern gooda tuesday morning to allow civilians to leave the district but moscow says that civilians can't leave the district because militants are shelling humanitarian corridors now are also spoke about this particular topic she thinks that all of syria should be a humanitarian so not just some corridors i find it ironic when russia calls for a humanitarian road a humanitarian zone you know what the humanitarian zone is it's the entirety of syria not just one little area but russia cutely tries to carve out it should be

the entire country because that is what russia and those fifteen other countries agreed to in the u.n. security council resolution of the cease fire was agreed upon unanimously in the security council and it applies to all parties except isis and al qaeda so maybe the u.s. should focus on peace efforts instead of criticizing russia but now it's russia bashing took another interesting turn when she mentioned chemical weapons saying that russia failed in destroying syria's chemical weapons but even though it was a russian initiative it wasn't russia's full responsibility to destroy syria's chemical weapons it was a u.n. led effort and the open sea w.b. organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons which is the organization that was trying with the mission has confirmed multiple times that all of syria's chemical weapons have been destroyed however it didn't end there now or compare the current situation in eastern gooda to what happened in aleppo but we are watching what is going on and i spoke to this on thursday the horrific attacks taking place

against civilians in eastern guta it is not too dissimilar from what happened last year in aleppo it is horrific now back in twenty sixteen the u.s. debt. the russian humanitarian corridors that were meant to save civilians they claimed it was a forced evacuation saying that people should have been able to stay in their homes but this is how foreign minister lavrov defended aleppo's humanitarian corridors there looks just as that. but then the mass evacuation of civilians took place too in order to destroy the terrorists who didn't want to leave aleppo and back then everyone said that it was a very risky operation because civilians could leave and never return you might even be considered ethnic cleansing and yesterday aleppo's governor said that two hundred thousand of those who left aleppo have come back that's a third of all buildings damaged by war have been restored and this process is continuing well it seems that the state department is ignoring the real issue at hand that civilians can't leave eastern good because militants are shelling

humanitarian corridors. well foreign policy specialist attorney jennifer breeden says russia isn't to blame for the violence united states has actually made a very specific failure in syria and gating the grounds there and we've lost a lot of the ability to speak about that and so now it's just because it's become on a whoever's whoever's in charge or whoever might have something so playing the blame on russia for the thing it was their fault because russia had the power they should have known and to tell us to put its forces out or to have militants stop doing that they're basically saying that russia is now in charge of syria rather than trying to find a solution as to why this five hour or any any hour seven hour any amount of cease fire won't work this is not up to russia this is not up to to any one nation it's up to all the nations that are in syria to agree to this ceasefire and i think it's just unfortunate is that it's continued pattern of really almost immaturity childish behavior on behalf of u.s. state department that is trying to blame russia or some other power when they

really have lost their foothold in syria and ability to do anything even if it's a humanitarian reason or to protect people. in the u.s. state of a junior at least eleven people have been taken ill after a suspicious letter was opened at the maya military base in arlington the building where the letter was opened just being evacuated base officials are coordinating with local crews specializing in hazardous materials and the f.b.i. are investigating the case and reports. well joint meyer base henderson hall that's a military installation near the city of arlington virginia very close to washington d.c. and apparently a package containing a hazardous material now we don't know what hazardous material it is but a hazardous material was delivered on the scene it was delivered this package and now eleven people are ill because of what was in this package this substance now i understand the arlington fire department is on the scene and people in hazmat suits

are also on the scene from what we understand now this point three patients have been transported to the to the hospital in there in stable condition five people displaying symptoms and at this point it's not clear what the substance is we don't know what it is but it's making people ill now this is coming on the on the back of a wave of fake attacks there was a wave of suspicious packages containing white powder that were delivered one was delivered to the trump family one was delivered to the british house of parliament another was delivered to julia songe but all three of those that the substance the white powder in the package was not dangerous it wasn't dangerous substance however this one that was delivered to this military base does appear to actually be a dangerous substance people are actually ill and actually harmed this is definitely a security concern people are thinking of the anthrax attacks that that swept the

united states almost over a decade ago a lot of fear is on people's minds as they're trying to figure out what exactly is going on here why is this envelope containing a suspicious substance that is now making people ill why was this delivered and what's going on here. israeli soldiers have arrested ten people in a raid on a palestinian village and among them was a teenage boy still recovering from a shocking head injury sustained at a west bank protest two months ago the raid was caught on video by a member of his family and. reports. well ten palestinians were arrested by the i.d.f. in a pre-dawn raid five of them were minors and among those detained was one hundred ten many who were seriously wounded after an israeli soldier fired at him with

a rubber bullet back in the same they're now he is currently waiting for surgery to help a small part of his skull after it was removed in emergency surgery following that december incident. when i was injured i climbed the wall thinking they were gone and as soon as i looked over i was shot right here and then i passed out and i don't know what happened they arrested me for throwing stones and they hit me while they were interrogating me when i went to the interrogation place i heard people shouting and getting beaten and there were little kids there the officer started shouting at them to confess and also shouting at me when they arrested me at my home at three am they put handcuffs on me and my brother then they took us to their camp when we arrived we found the other four guys and then they took us to the interrogation they started asking me why my face is like this and saying you look funny and said many things about me i told them i fell off my bicycle. what

happens if that arm arrested him at two am and the way they arrested him was harsh he was a child who suffered an injury from the israeli soldiers and it was difficult for his parents because he was injured and being arrested was a great into his health condition his health condition remained the same but he was psychological effect for a child being arrested at two am and kept in detention until two pm the next day without any food or sleep was difficult for him the israeli army has confirmed that it a race to tell me overnighted says that the service was approved by an army physician now after being away. he was interrogated and has been subsequently released during that interrogation it seems as if he was forced to say that he fell off a bike and when his head hit the handle bars that cause the injury now his family has refuted this and in fact doctors have proven that the injury to his head was in fact caused by every other bullet he is the younger brother of tommy who is

currently in detention awaiting trial after slapping any israeli soldier who arrived at her home. now that was filmed back in december when soldiers arrived at the tommy home to rest mohammed naturally i heard was extremely angry and her brother are regularly at protests and demonstrations with israeli soldiers there very often in confrontations. the bestselling book fire and fury reportedly used numerous tactics to gain revelations about the trumpet ministration also michael wolff apparently told the white house the book and its title will be much more favorable and he appeared to demonstrate tricks when confronted with an uncomfortable question about his claims. he wrote the book the president drum didn't want you to buy so you did. here we can

start the drug war now it's not go michael wolff michael wolff the author of fire and fury joins me now michael wolff welcome on a work. usage airing a t.v. interview just last month that you're absolutely sure that donald trump is currently having an affair called just last week i know you backflipped and said i quote i do not know if the president is having an affair do you are the president and the first lady an apology mr wolf. i can't hear you. do you are the president and the first lady at a public event i can hear you. joe lovano did you at least the shore that the president were having an affair i'm not getting in i'm not

getting anything. you know hearing me but i'm not getting anything. is. an american expert in recycling and trying to skirt face prison and a hefty fine over his plan to save old computers going into landfill sites microsoft has accused everything on going of creating files ins of illegal copies of its software but he argues he was only using it to extend the lifespan of all p.c.'s but he faces up to fifteen months in prison and a possible fifty thousand dollars fine margaret insists he was acting within the law. the microsoft software itself gets missing d.l.l. files and bloatware and viruses but over time will break down the software so that it doesn't operate and function as intended you might have seen that before if you ever use a computer and it just seems to slow down over time and it needs a a refresh which is what the purpose of a restore cd is so you have

a license with your computer and that follows your computer in perpetuity until your computer's no longer working and that computer can be used by hundreds of people thousands of people and the license follows the hardware so the hardware itself over time might get missing d.l.l. files or it might get viruses in bloatware and what you'll end up doing is you want to refresh your re-install your valid copy of license on your computer and to do that you need three things you need to see a way you need a license and you need to restore media restore cd the restore cd is free you can download it anywhere online but the c.e.o. and license have to come from microsoft they're the only ones that can provide you with that. well microsoft claims it missed out on sales of its license products accusing lundgren of piracy prosecutors claim he made twenty eight thousand illegal copies of microsoft's operating system well last year london was convicted of conspiracy and copyright infringement but an appeals court has allowed him to

reality his case he says his main purpose was to encourage people to use refurbished computers instead of purchasing new ones. i know that if you were to make top the use of their license or their seal ways your directly stealing from microsoft and you deserve to go to prison but if you're providing the restore cd which is the free thing that you can download for free or that's given to you with your computer if you provide that to consumers you're giving them the ability to repair their legally own property and i see no problem with that i believe in extending the life cycle of electronics and i believe that it helps us be more efficient in society if we're able to use these computers as long as they last i was very surprised when microsoft put me in that same circle with the people that are out there hacking or stealing their licenses or seal ways i mean that is

a crime crime that deserves to be punished because you're directly stealing from somebody all i was attempting to do was help consumers use what they legally own i've been a recycler for sixteen years and all i care about is the environment i want to make sure the things that work continue to work for the benefit of mankind. and it seems recycling and extending the life of products isn't desirable to some companies who prefer their consumers to keep consuming. and.

it was. an investigation into one of the worst cases of child sex abuse in the u.k. is stalling ju-ju a lack of qualified personnel the abuse scandal centers on the sexual exploitation of fourteen hundred children over three decades in the english town of rotheram eighty percent of the suspected perpetrators were of pakistani origin artie's party boyko looks at why the probe launched three years ago is still failing to make progress according to this senior officer investigating the scandal one hundred

more police officers are needed to uncover the truth so far police have managed to interview seventeen percent of a possible one and a half thousand victims due to a shortage in specially trained detectives. it's a really special listeria engaging in interviewing vulnerable victims a lot of our victims were children when they were abused but they're now adults and have associated problems as a result of that abuse including suicidal tendencies mental health issues drug and alcohol addiction the other end scandal led to a national outcry when the scale of the child abuse was first exposed back in twenty twelve two years later an independent inquiry found that for decades through systemic failures in policing and social services the sexual abuse of children went on right under the noses of the or thora ts gangs of men the majority of whom were of pakistani origin preyed on mostly white girls aged from eleven to fifteen many

of the victims thought they were in relationships with their abusers when the crimes were uncovered local authorities in yorkshire were accused of failing to tackle the problem partly through fear of being branded racist on the part of the authorities in their cases they were actually saying that these girls made a lifestyle choice it's about the fact that the authorities didn't want to be branded racist the ring leaders of the rod room grooming going last year i think yeah the distant relatives of mine but you know what it doesn't change the responsibility that people like me have on tackling this particular issue so i've been campaigning against child sexual exploitation and street gang grooming gangs who are predominantly of a pakistani origin for over ten years the investigation into rather abuses has cost ten million pounds so far four individuals have been convicted eighteen have been

charged and thirty eight have been arrested no one senior has been held to account and with just seventeen percent of the victims interviewed so far all this. may just be the tip of the iceberg. now voting is underway in the russian presidential election or at least in northwest siberia it's the first region to cast ballots due to the remoteness of its polling stations and its severe weather election officials are using all possible means of transport from helicopters to snowmobiles.

now russia's so you space capsule m.s.o. six is returning three international space station crew members to earth they are expedition flight engineers mark vander heyden and joe acaba of nasa and commander alexander miso kin of the russian space agency so you spacecraft undocked from the i s s at twenty three o eight g.m.t. and they're expected to touch down on the steps of kazakstan at around two thirty two g.m.t. was this the users safely back on earth ground and air crews will converge on the craft and extract the crew the three have spent a total of one hundred sixty eight days in space and the mission marked the start of a long term increase in the crew science on the u.s. segment of the i assess from three people to four of the crew launched last

september riding on the site if rocket. i know about that lines in just over half an hour meanwhile for more on all asked henri's and plenty of other features as well as heat up called. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted over checked. so when you want to be present. for some want to. have to go right to be first but what about for three of the more people that are

interested in the waters of our. fish soup. greetings and salutations. with the spotlight of u.s. politics and media shining down hard on gun violence and mass shootings it's important to take note of some of the stunning numbers and tragedies being ignored or missed by the news media and capitol hill outrage machine you see they build those things just sit. in that harsh spotlight it's edge sometimes catching the light of day but most often not for the right reasons six hundred fifty murders were committed in the city of chicago with two thousand seven hundred eighty five shootings all in just the year of two thousand and seventeen but did you see any

wall to wall mainstream coverage over this tragedy that's not to say chicago hasn't been covered no one is arguing that but the majority of that national coverage was not for the tragedy of losing six hundred fifty lives but rather on the gung ho political calls for getting tough on crime and locking up more young black males and where is our collective us media outrage over the epic loss of life taking place around the world most often committed in our name the non partisan monitoring group airwaves reported that twenty seventeen was by far and away the deadliest year for civilians in both iraq and syria was somewhere between thirty nine hundred over six thousand civilians. were killed in coalition air strikes in fact the intercept reports that roughly sixty five percent of all civilian deaths recorded by air wars.
