this is r.t. international great to have you with us. more than a dozen palestinian protesters have been injured on the gaza border on saturday just one day after seventeen people died and over a thousand were hurt in clashes with israeli soldiers u.n. secretary general is now calling for an independent investigation into the deaths journalist who is at the scene so today's a second day of protest demonstrations and praise for the palestinians dallas' to news from all over the gaza strip are coming to march through the fence and as you see we can still see this israeli soldiers night there is trying to target all of that all of the protesters who are coming near the fence and palestinians protesters are holding palestinian flags and are trying to put them near the fence

and yesterday thousands of hundreds of palestinians were on the same field there israeli army used to. i mean nation live bullets and tear gas. and for the first time there's really i mean use the drone to throw tear gas canisters and and the protesters and to separate them. and you will march of return as a demonstration the denounces the israeli occupation thousands of palestinians have pitched tents across five locations they're expected to stay there for six weeks in response the israeli defense forces are stationed more than one hundred snipers overlooking the area we spoke exclusively to the senior political leader of the palestinian political movement hamas here's how he described the situation. all those killed were from gaza what the israelis did is

a crime against unarmed civilians who just want to return to their villages and towns and who have a right to under the nine hundred forty eight u.n. resolutions or these really is are displaying the kind of fear seen in a thief was trying to protect what he stole and this is how they treat unarmed civilians who just want to return home. last confirmed five of those killed were of its military wing israel blamed it violent response on hamas which it views as a terrorist organization yes the israeli prime minister's foreign media spokesperson david keys whether the i.d.f. response is proportionate. a large stone thrown at someone's head can kill them as has happened in the past but there is no reason for someone to be twenty meters away from the fence and if you look at the pictures you see people who were trying to infiltrate a peaceful protest this is not we know what peaceful protests look like and they don't involve people taking guns and shooting at the other side namely israelis this can start this can stop this very second all it requires is for hamas to say

don't approach the fence and don't try to storm into israel by the thousands and start shooting missiles and gunfire at israelis the moment that this all of this goes away. american diplomatic staff are leaving the u.s. consulate in st petersburg its official closure on sunday and this comes after moscow announced thursday the expulsion of sixty u.s. envoys and the shutdown of the diplomatic diplomatic compound is a reciprocal response the washy decision to expel the same number of russian diplomats and to close the country's consulate in seattle but this latest tit for tat comes amid a growing diplomatic crisis over the poisoning of double agent sergei script on u.k. soil britain so far failed to provide any evidence of russia's guilt of the last london blames moscow for the attack and over twenty countries have expelled moscow's diplomats in solidarity with the u.k.

in response to russia's taken similar moves against those states only my colleague andrew farmer discussed the consequences for moscow's relations with the u.k. there i guess the. this is part of russia's response to the tat mirror response for every russian diplomat expelled from great britain the united states and two dozen odd other countries most of them either nato states or countries that are seeking to join nato for every russian diplomat expelled russia is expelling one of those countries diplomats from russia in the case with great britain twenty three diplomats have been expelled but it doesn't end there russia's also. the u.k. to reduce its diplomatic staff in russia by an additional fifty this is the number of russian diplomats in great britain and a number of british diplomats in russia seem to establish parity this is i suppose you could say a punitive measure for great britain's role in this entire affair it was london

that launched this campaign that went to these countries and convinced them to kick out russian diplomats and russia sees this is unjust and unfair because there's been no evidence no proof of russian involvement in this attempted assassination attempt in great britain and this tension is extending elsewhere to isn't it i mean we had an incident involving an aeroflot plane in london yesterday also just tell us about that well this is this is all part of it part of this degradation in relations russian passenger jet that had arrived in london was unexpectedly without warning and without reason searched by british authorities at first there's confusion because nobody admitted the search the police said that we wanted well involved they even tweeted about it however it turned out that there was in fact the search going on and the russians say it went against all protocol the u.k.

representatives tried to speak with the crew being present which is strictly prohibited by the relevant regulations. only after the arrival of an embassy official and link to negotiations was the pilots allowed to be present during the inspection the u.k. representatives refused to provide any documents that would space it for the reason for the search its legal basis and the results of the russian foreign ministry has come out and said that this is you know outrageous and just another example of the depths that things of have sunk to the side from all the expulsions there's been a lot of rhetoric flying around and the russians say that the united kingdom is needing these anti russian rooster phobic crusades or certainly looks like we were in a spiral downward spiral and difficult to see any way out meanwhile with the investigation into the script still ongoing the russian foreign ministry is issued fourteen key

unanswered questions and called on the u.k. government to respond. russia has also sent a list of questions to friends who vasco says is also taking part in the script all investigation investigative journalist martin summers police much about the case remains a mystery and the u.k. government seems unwilling to provide answers. the things is quite interesting is when they took the blood samples from both of them while they're still unconscious they had to get legal legal permission to do that and they have to go to the court in seoul's berry and in the legal document they provided they said that novacek or

some similar agent had been used so in other words in the legal documents they didn't say that they don't know that they found out where there was no a chuckle not on his various people pointed out have real nerve agents have been used and the whole half the population soulsby would be dead and of course how would the british know it was not checking with the guts and themselves you know all of these questions obviously come to the surface and i think if we really pursue this case and don't let it go it may be that the government is in this country is going peace a bit embarrassed because they haven't really got a lot of proof in. place of fine water cannon in tear gas against protesters letting off less during a demonstration over the expulsion of environmental squatters in the friend city of nonce give you points from the protest.

the on the one who. want to write just days on was nice enough guy running we got the police running behind us the middle of this where you can see the police are trying to kind of china for justice into one particular spot trying to move them down the streets we have already seen t.v.'s being funny for justice in the prices running things out of resetting some small skirmishes and this is. not switched on to lunch undesigned you see i did make this place there this was a place of land that was a must for a possible airports the french government decided early this year that he would. not to be building the airport but it has said that it wants to expel all of these artists on a case by case basis from this land as you can see behind me now the police are

having to come back the protests just pushing them on from the streets in not they came here to protest against the expulsion of the people who are satisfied not just on the run we're going to have to move quickly now because the police we've got things are being run out and the police have been using cheap gas is well trying to get the protest is out of the way and trying to coordinate and done just certain factions but what we're seeing now he's doing the protests is coming out from the street and you can see the police are also trying to blockade other protesters were joining them splitting them up in or around us are you seeing small clashes now between the police and the protesters here all over that site that. well he might say i did not you don't glance oh you're getting some of the effects of the cheer gas that's being put up by the sea or is this your job or you were just making it a little bit difficult to breathe so we're going to just move right as you can see that the police in trying to prove gaydar street from the protesters from coming

out they had to protest against the expulsion of the people from the start site but not try don't do lunch they say they will do whatever they can within their means to protect that site because it is now their home challenge even ski or to you know . billboards so started to appear in european cities calling for a boycott of this summer's fee for world cup and russian destructive think it takes a closer look at the group that lies behind the campaign. the beautiful game takes an ugly turn to international friendlies this week in europe were hit with less than friendly billboards outside the stadiums the campaign also has an online petition against what it dubs the cup of shame and its site probably boasts that the u.k. has announced ministers won't be attending of course it fails to mention that britain's decision has nothing to do with the situation in syria whatsoever and it carefully ignores that moscow's presence has contributed when it comes to the fight

against terrorism in syria including deescalation zones and humanitarian corridors but i digress of oz and online global activism network is behind both the billboards and the petition and this is how they describe their aims of this is a global organization with a simple democratic mission closed the gap between the world we have in the world most people everywhere want their campaigns cover everything from saving elephants and bees to much more controversial topics like gun control in america and stopping the far right from taking power in europe so clearly they don't shy away from politics and when it comes to syria their position is crystal clear assad and by extension russia bad u.s. coalition and white helmets good and fact according to their site of oslo has raised over two million dollars to help the white helmets but as we've reported before the group isn't exactly what they might appear to be.

with some forty six million members worldwide and sixteen available languages on their website they make clicked of is an extremely. the easy weather causes animal rights global warming or the children in syria as an organization they're very deeply imbedded in. american establishment into the corporate world and into the political ruling elite world in america and so we've seen over far as used to weaponized as an instrument of war for example the petitions

that was put forward for example against libya they were calling for a no fly zone we've also seen them for example supporting the alleged chemical weapon attacks to demonize the syrian government and to accused russia of supporting so why don't they launch a petition that is calling for an hour fly zone or a petition that is demonizing one particular side in a conflict it is recently linked to that humanitarian aspect now involved takes pride in saying they're one hundred percent member funded meaning that their agenda is not and cannot be swayed by anyone with deep pockets or special interests but at the same time they also acknowledge that they were founded by two advocacy groups who received major funding from george soros a well known supporter of liberal political causes and to one of those companies sources open society foundation specifically funneled money to a vast so well p.r. stunts politicising sports are nothing new with this stunt in particular some are

now crying foul. almost four thousand people have now returned to their homes in serious aleppo that's according to russia's defense ministry the city was liberated by russian and syrian forces fifteen months ago says that many refugees have come back to the home town and his life in aleppo begins to go back to something close to normal hundreds of christian worshipers attended the good friday vasant procession in the city to mark the start of easter residents so that after seven years of brutal conflict they finally feel safe. policyholder actually apple became safe and there were no more clashes in mortars we came back and we're happy here it's easter happy easter. thing god finally we've been able to visit our churches and hold religious rituals we've had enough in seventy years now it is safe and peaceful we can do everything freely. but elsewhere in syria the humanitarian situation remains catastrophic so ninety five thousand civilians

return to the city of radical after it was retaken by u.s. led forces half a year ago but they still live in dire conditions or stall the infrastructure is destroyed no access to running water and other basic necessities there is a military even reported frustrated people have started the uprising against u.s. backed rebel forces there. was still a third year and we were forced to leave the huns because my son when we return we found everything which used to rubble look at all the devastation a lot of rock is a go see. by the minute when living in the midst of destruction was completely abandoned everything around has been destroyed. one life years horrible this is the lies and rubble that we have to be to remove

the debris with all money there's no running water so we have to but it's in better jobs in the u.s. coalition of course the destruction of records and has a responsibility to rebuild the city we need to help with restoring the water supply in clearing the rubble and. i found a man on the streets near my house my friend and i tried to detonate it from a distance but it didn't go off what we thought the mine didn't work and walked towards it has exploded my friend was killed i survived too so the me when he was coming away after the short break. and what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. you somehow want

to press. the to do like to be press this is like the three of them all the people . interested always in the lawyers about how. this should. yes. did not look for the perpetrators they were covering their tracks. they were free didn't find out who did it and. it was you who did. what you want russia to clash with the rest of the world.

back an independent autopsy has found us police fatally shot an unarmed black man in the back and home to the city of sacramento earlier this month the victim's family lawyer says that it contradicts the police officer he was advancing towards them although what happened wasn't exactly clear from the bundy cam video that was released. thanks. police fired at twenty two year old stefan clark twenty times saying afterwards that mistaken his phone for a gun they were responding to a call about someone breaking windows shot in his grandmother's backyard the officers involved were placed on paid administrative leave the case those outraged locals and protests happening almost every day since the occurrence of the shooting . and in a series of protests demonstrators blocked holly ways and twice disrupted

a nearby n.b.a. basketball game the day after clogged funeral monitors activists again long streets for justice and the punishment for those responsible we spoke to former georgia state representative jones she says that improperly trying police officers and not being held to account the ideas that african-americans are automatically committing crime are in the foundation of our system and fire training the right kind of training now this on how to shoot or when to shoot deescalating but then also a training inherent bias is that police officers may have in this country and it's within their systems and we need to look at both in order to try to stop these types of horrific events but we have to look at the train of events that has happened in the past where many officers are not being indicted or they are let off and that's because our law has a very huge loophole and determine allowing officers who have fear and looking at

their subjective belief of fear in determining whether they are guilty or not in their actions and the only other place to hold them accountable is it through the police departments making them lose their jobs but it's very hard to have the police police the police. cryptocurrency the hoping relief if it's important to one hundred thousand people are still without power following a major hurricane last year twenty five thousand dollars is being donated by the nurse of these new girlfriend santiago spoke to some of them. puerto rico has received an influx of watch chain innovators who pledged to transform the region after hurricane rita's devastating damage but i'm hoping happens as a lot of people come to puerto rico and take a look around our. place a little these people are amazing they're so nice and so there's so much culture that's so beautiful here why is it that that things are so difficult why are why are there such struggles maybe i can make a difference maybe i can help with this those are three consecutive conferences

detainee's last chance down and point agenda we're all working together to build a community of the future give back to the people of puerto rico say we're going to install five different solar solar set ups to bring power to homes. and water change stems from a ten year old incorporated company and is going to washington d.c. centralized water by creating a system of sensors automating water treatment and recycling process that shows puerto rico and teamed up with the restart league for its first systems implementation with a country that recycles the most water. you telling israel of course eighty percent recycling rate the next one down in the world just spain with twenty percent whereas the us. one percent. here's the worst part of it eighty percent of all water in the world is not treated it's just runs into the ocean so

a trillion dollar water history should be a five trillion dollar water industry and we anticipate that what happened with plants is that a part of that problem it's a part of the problem because the water infrastructure in the u.s. is literally falling apart it's whole and what's happening is forced decentralization with the towns musicality by telling the users you clean your own water well i see that as an opportunity because we can get those users to adopt the very best technologies and reuse there was. now long before we build that we want to get to work right away here but we're not going to wait to build all the structures we're just going to go ahead and use some of your the investment to literally put shovels in the ground and build the system right here right now this is more or less all my talks are on the operating table and you know marmie remember that you're building communities stay tuned for more of those in the future in order to address these knives max keiser mutual midsummer crystal rose
