headline stories. children are. the fate of their parents. also in the program with well underway in general. parties are predicted to make the biggest showing a major blow to the. democrats. were switched on birth. to consequences.

around the clock across the world this is our international from the team and myself welcome to the program our top story the only two children to escape the besieged syrian district. russia established a humanitarian corridor to help civilians find safe passage of the region. a warning of. images of the moment. when they were clearly in shock or comforted after reaching the government help the children say

they left with their parents but were separated from them after militants opened fire. even their. thank you no my model little hope. no i didn't i. well i don't. have any. especially. because i. can never smile you. will have to go look on our news wall here eastern which is located just outside the syrian capital damascus it's been occupied by various rebel islamist groups for years and has been under siege since twenty thirteen and here just to the north of good is a refugee camp that civilians can be relocated to within u.n.

refugee camp is the older we are center facilities there are being prepared for those fleeing the shelter offers food supplies as well as medical assistance with many humanitarian groups boller tearing there such as the red cross and my colleagues and if you're a cheater spoke to one of those working at the camp mother. and came to do this could you do it hasn't been successful and i regret to say you. because there is a will. to keep the civilian under their custody and may be to use them as a human shield and going. out to the camp is very dangerous. people and they are. and we have witnessed this.

team was there in contact with families inside wanting to go out. and being insured by our side and of course the red crescent so they had to wait the whole day and it was impossible for those families to go out because they were sniped i'm imagining that those trapped within the city. are completely helpless and we can't imagine the kind of living conditions as well because of lack of supplies and i know that inside there is no food there is sometimes no water. and those people they want to leave because they are living in extreme conditions. i have one my phone many. request from people inside. to be helped to go out safely because

inside it's also very difficult for them can you describe how those people the messages that you're getting personal messages on your phone can you describe the kind of things that they're saying to you i am getting private messages and you know the woman i would never safe there a woman who can you expand on that why why i'm going to have sexual violence every time we have a head to deal with and you acquitted people we have found like twenty five percent of the women and the little little girls they have. they have been assault they have had sexual value unless it is very said reality. tell us who the perpetrators are of that sexual violence the people in control there are men that are in control and they can oblige

they can make pressure it looks pretty bleak doesn't it for the people trapped inside it's very bleak what is the solution i mean the solution is that the international community beginning with you and. united nations to really state and to arsk. rebels to really protect ducati dog not to shell the quarry dog and not to make pressure on people wanting to leave. to prevent them from leaving. this must be done by people decision makers. exit polls in italy suggests that the anti establishment and populous parties have made the most gains in the country's general election while a center right coalition led by former prime minister silvio berlusconi is expected

to win the most seats in the lower house of parliament three major candidates outside the current political mainstream went into the vote with high hopes on their confidence seems to have been vindicated the leader of the five star movement luigi de mayo is the young face of the party leading the vote while the anti immigration league party's leader material salvini makes up a coalition with four time prime minister berlusconi from go italy the people of freedom party the former pm himself is banned from holding the top job for a year due to a fraud conviction and with polls now closed results being. calculated the leader of the five star movement is already celebrating success. yes. yes. you. know. from rome. has been following the

vote. well it's been quite an election here in italy from the very curious and untested new election laws that was used for the first time in the selection of some of the curiosities about the candidates to of course media frenzy with journalists both italian and international trying to make sense of it all well some of the media headlines we've seen have jumped the selection chaotic unpredictable disappointing even a farce and certainly expecting it's to have been more organized i mean even throughout the night here we've seen some international journalists be quite taken aback with some of the organization that has been taking place with no good internet connections inside press centers with journalists having to go outside for some live broadcasts to be able to do their work the economy has been a huge issue here of course with italy having a huge public debt of one hundred thirty five percent of its g.d.p. unemployment being super high especially for use a stagnant economy really some people some critics have been saying that this

election should have been taken a little bit more seriously in terms of this untested election system that many have found to be quite confusing including italians we've spoken to. i'm a bit disillusioned the programs are always the same and after the first three months in power the political parties never keep the promises they made to the put the it was pretty complicated it was a bit unclear and there will be consequences for them when she found that you were trying to gain the trust of very tis creating a mess like this amounts to a real shot on taking all of these issues into account one of the bigger ones has been immigration is with passions flying high on all sides of the spectrum including protests taking place.

the movement the five star movement again the whole south this is a terrible blow for the european union you know i'm not saying it's like brecht's it but if they had. and they tell lex it right now i guess they sixty percent of their talents would work against the european union. it's sons like a plot straits i'd have a hollywood movie only it happened in a russian village a switch a maternity ward some four decades ago left two mothers raising each other's children d.n.a. tests have not confirmed the suspicions that the families had been harboring for decades and he takes up the story. it's a tell of heartache confusion and attempted met and it's taken two women almost forty years to find out they were raised by the wrong families in

his national vision conference in the world. we speak at a rally for fathers of venture capitalism and of course the new kids on the block crypto and this guy kawasaki a silicon valley guru he was the apple employee originally responsible for marketing the macintosh computer line in one thousand nine hundred four along with steve jobs so what the silicon valley think of blushing the new kid on the block let's get guy stick on crypto do you believe in it do you think it's something tangible like three in the old fashioned sense you create value and you get rewarded right so you make a good computer you get rewarded you make a good phone you get rewarded i think all my money out of silicon valley but put a cryptocurrency into a project that has a token pledges that was made on a project was like a stock you know some flooding back in the auctions apology to make the world more transparent or less centralized exult you know like telling somebody who's making

a new fall or in the car and it's all cryptic or the like out of work translate that to me i want to invest in tesla come on this. stuff. good luck cool first go. all right thanks or. however skeptical guy for the stock he's taken could so maybe even evasion is already here it's like flying cars are not the future they are available right now monica lewinsky is the first ever passengers on taxi it's powered by mach change which allows for artificial intelligence to control airspace and the inventors say this will improve air traffic control in ways that the world is not experienced are practically approaching our force field close to where the big world focused on the persian gulf in southeast. aged africa as they first see this for the. once blog airspace as part of the monologue is
