i. in the stories that shaped the week the british foreign secretary is accused of lying over moscow's role in this kind of power poisoning. tested the nerve agent says it can't prove it came from russia meanwhile doctors say both the former russian spy and his daughter are no longer in a critical condition a close relative who was refused a visa to visit them has written to reason they. are scared that i will find out something more that he will tell me something yes they try to me please not the

kremlin but my five i will fight to the end. i will go to the u.s. . also to come twenty palestinians are killed after israeli forces used live ammunition against demonstrators in gaza. and this is really dangerous to see the largest u.s. media group comes under fire for telling its t.v. presenters to read a script of promo against you. follow that welcome the latest developments and a look back at the last seven days to you watch the weekly here on r.t. international now war of accusations has been raging this week over the poisoning of a former russian double agent and his daughter a british military laboratory admitted it could not identify the source of the

nerve agent used although the government has consistently said that it came from russia. as more. it's a right old kid on drugs on the one hand you skip the trial screamed guilty and jump to the punishment part on the other your own guys come out and say hold on there's no evidence and i was his by were living experts at the defense science and technology laborde to read at porton down made clear that this was a military grade nobby choke nerve agent produced in russia we have not verified the precise source you have not been able to establish that this was made in russia as i said it's our job to provide you know the scientific evidence that identifies for the particular nerve agent is there to be clear you're not able at porton down to say where it is from we haven't yet been able to do that well that's

embarrassing alright keep calm first google back on your word and just to be sure delete any old tweets then riposte experts who say the opposite of what you said our experts have precisely identified in their region as novacek it is not and has never been our responsibility to confirm the source of the agent now pretend that nothing happened which is hard to do in the end to that really the brits ended up having to explain themselves and conveniently scapegoated the poor fellow who transcribed the briefing one of the tweets was truncated and did not accurately report and passed as woods we removed this tweet you remember what i said about scapegoating he really did but barge johnson himself had said almost the same thing said it's on video you argue that their

source of is russia how did you manage to find it out so quickly when i look at the the evidence i mean the people from from porton dollars. they were absolutely categorical and i asked the guy myself i said are you sure and he said there's no doubt wouldn't want to be in their shoes right about now yet they did find a way around it a simple statement saying that boris johnson didn't mean it like that with the four and six he said then and what putin donna said recently is fully consistent with what we've said throughout having taken things so far so fast they can't afford to do a u. turn this investigation could end in two ways with proof of russia's guilt or with an uncomfortable silence and hope that everyone forgets until then boris keep doing what you do every day you're ready for the bigger point.

is that. russia. well there's also been a lot of criticism on twitter from britain's main opposition labor party over boris johnson's assurances that russia was behind the poisoning when asked if johnson wanted to delete his german t.v. interview of his stress the need to check the evidence while labor m.p. chris williamson called johnston downright dangerous and said the case was being used to divert attention seems to me the government were indulging in political point scoring particularly boris johnson who raced ahead of the evidence and used this terrible incident not so much as a smoking gun but more than a smoke screen really it was a very convenient wasn't it for the government to use this as a way of diverting attention from their own difficulties over. policy let's be absolutely clear before we start raising international tensions in this way this is

huge implications for more sensible to take a measured approach and be clear about the evidence all the evidence. now both the double agent and his daughter who appeared to be making a recovery back on march the fourth they were found unconscious on a park bench in the southern u.k. city of soldiers bri british officials state the pair had been poisoned with a military grade nerve agent called navi chalk developed in the soviet union at the time prime minister to resign may said those subjected to such a powerful nerve agent may never recover when it became clear that both victims were getting better a family relative victorious could attempt to get a u.k. visa to visit her family however her application was denied well in exclusive interview to artie's video agency brought police with turia added she's written a letter asking for her visa to be approved just. now the whole world is stuck in about a political scandal down the heart of the scandal are real people who put together

all documents missing from their pleas and they hope that number of credit tricks will prevent me from seeing my loved ones i ask the u.k. and you personally to reconsider their decision to diffuse my visa they are scared that i will find out something more that he will tell me something yes try to many please me not the kremlin but my five i will fight to the end if i fail here i will go to the us however mainstream british media is quick to speculate over the visa denial some suggested the application was blocked because downing street feared she was being coached by the kremlin and used as a pawn in the same exclusive interview she notes that during a phone conversation with you here it did appear that someone was prompting you what to say to talk took place the day before victoria applied for a visa. or treat us with us or you're not of one of the.

not in my list of potential users are. you for yet here we. know all really could need us to move or be opposed to more widely ordered rules many of them booked will you said the doctor told me in august of book of course all of them are going to be doing it. or meaningly other warringah to just really want to go to a yes no money and so you have to marvel at first i was happy that you were called but it was clear that she wasn't speaking her own words she was being prompted you can hear it in the recording but there's a start she was told yes you can talk which meant that she was being guided. out of the news this week at least ten palestinians were killed by israeli gunfire on the garza border on friday came after thousands of protesters staged a massive and he occupation protest.

when now maybe one hundred meters only far away from the fence you can see the crowd you can see the protesters flooded and a hundred of thousands phallus in years have been here tensions are running high right now as the israeli army started to shoot trend in your palestinians are getting injured why the ambulances are already here to british take on the injuries that we're now the injured from days really i mean that by live bullets and i mean nation and get your gas canisters this is one of the injuries that was injured just right now from the al for booklets and at the tear gas and there it's cross

ambulance and on the medics are trying to save all the injuries as you see the palestinian protesters are running away from the tear gas canisters that were thrown just right now and the protesters. so these are unexploded to gas canisters that are being targeted and suited on the palestinian protesters thousands of hundreds of palestinians have been here and we saw palestinian protesters burning view as flags and israeli flags and also saying slogans against the israelis and the americans. local journalist reporting there was a wave of rallies began at the end of march with organizers claiming they will last for weeks during the past seven days more than twenty palestinians have been killed with many more wounded during what's being called the great march of return several

journalists have also been injured in these clashes one of whom later died some are target here worked for a local t.v. production company garza health officials say that he was shot while filming close to the border and died in hospital in this video there you can see he was wearing a jacket marked with the words press the israeli military there you said it only fired those it called instigators of the violence however a spokesperson for the i.d.f. posted on twitter saying rioters did attempt to cross the security fence and set off explosive devices in the tempted terrorist attack fourteen of the fifteen members of the un security council meanwhile back to call for an independent investigation into all the deaths caused by israel's use of live ammunition during the garza protests it was brought though by only one nation the united states we discussed the issue with an expert from palestine and also with an expert from israel. no record that mentioned that there was fire from the palestinian side

there was a few who could cross the fences to hang the power thema flags on different things and the order they were only throwing stones or burning of them the border every day is razor thin. with the americans the inquiry commission to come to gaza to investigate of the killing of the twenty nine the will and the injuries have been here some of them were actually hamas fighters and some are still and most of those who were killed the last week well among them was with people who are paid by hamas. and actually work for hamas as there always so what do they want to organize terror attacks against israel. and what is the. doing the thing is the. now the largest owner of t.v. stations in the us is facing a backlash over

a promotional announcement warning against fake nice present is on dozens of its channels were made to read identical scripted messages. this sharing of biased and false moves here you can call true karma articles or you. think it is pretty recently ruled out showing extremist unfortunately the summers of review was the solicitor. general and interesting. for you and this is really dangerous for drivers to see the conservative leaning singing group owns almost two hundred stations across america reaching almost half of all u.s. households the broadcaster claims the projects have no political agenda adding that they do not understand the do not understand the criticism however the initiative has drawn anger across mainstream media with critics warning the move only strengthens fears that popular outlets are actually spreading fake news will the us

president did step in to this debate to defend the sinclair group however telling news organizations what to say and do is an accusation we have heard before is shouting booga explains russian media is a beacon of honesty truth and integrity we work hard to maintain our outstanding level of work unlike foreign outlets who lie i love putting. my mind. spicy with a lot of that's the assumption many in the west make about russian media fully controlled broadcast with angers and correspondent forced to read a pre-prepared scripts no details left to chance so much of it is state funded after all but in the us where so many it must be different right the same kind it must be different right the sinclair broadcast group which owns almost two hundred television stations and broadcast on around six hundred channels proudly proclaims its mission statement that it provides stories that make a difference the key to our success is concentrated. on the old

platforms well and its recent promos there's not much of a choice or a difference it seems. to be what is sort of our treasure valley communities deal pass a loss christmas communities eastern i was. in communities we are extremely proud of the quality balance journalism that c.b.s. news produces but. yours was very. very plaguing our country as you can see anchors from different channels reading the same script there which was by the way leaked to some media outlets and it looks like they only had to fill in their names. and i'm the greatest responsibility is to serve on northwest communities. and if you look closely you'll notice an absence of certain colors in their wardrobes that's no accident they were given specific instructions on how to dress in order to look neutral the goal is to

look apolitical neutral nonpartizan yet professional black or charcoal suits from an females should wear yellow gold magenta sign not devoid red blue purple because everyone knows that magenta is the color that gives you and your bias away apart from these promo think they're also distributes what's known as must run segments to their stations so while the propaganda finger is so often pointed at russia it looks like we actually have quite a bit to learn starting with my wardrobe can be the reporting that still to come for you this hour there are concerns over claims by a controversial syrian group about a chemical attack will have a look at the details on much just after the break. we'll try to deconstruct all of these manipulated by cut series shaun of the world that is a religion and it's a peaceful religion and it's possible to be

a practicing muslim and so believe that the koran is the word of god and at the same time a member of secular societies it is possible. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express. yourself want. to do right. this is what. three of the four people. interested in the waters in the. first. infinitely. from. the from from.

hello again now today defense ministry has strongly denied claims the syrian government was behind a chemical attack in syria's rebel occupied town of doing it says it's ready to send chemical protection experts to prove otherwise reports about the attack came from the controversial anti-government activist group the white helmets who are calling it's killed were claiming it's killed dozens following the unconfirmed reports the u.s. has already called on the syrian government and its backers including russia to be held accountable well the allegations of a chemical attack come as syrian forces obliterated ninety percent of recent guti which was occupied for years by multiple rebel and terror groups thousands of civilians who returned to their homes in the liberated parts of the enclave a move made possible under a deal between the syrian government and rebel groups but while the agreement has divisions within some of the militant groups there many backed the deal which also

provided a safe passage out for them and their families well among the fact is leading to the deal were negotiations on syria between russia and iran and at the last the latest meeting the russian president cited intelligence reports showing attempts by some groups to destabilize the peace process with possible false flag attacks involving a chemical agent. if you really are joint strategic goal is to eliminate the terrorists who keep trying to destabilize the situation on the ground and sabotage the peace process they are doing this in every way possible we have obtained undeniable evidence of planned provocation by the militants with the use of chemical agents. well the director of the cannot as think tank that does focus on middle east affairs and i were caffe says the incident could be used by western countries to justify military action against syria. well the claims are made by people who would like to see the syrian government was really having the intent of

killing as many possible civilians as far as as you can really however if you look at it from the syrian government's point of view as we understand it the people of duma as hostages in a hostage situation on the other hand we know that you should listen has chemical weapons it's actually a faction in syria that acknowledged using chemical weapons. it's not beyond reason to think of it either requesting indirectly some need to bombers to come and do something about it against syrian army positions or at least to send some investigation unit to deal either surrender or. another news or voting in parliamentary elections today with the ruling party widely tipped to clinch another majority that all bans fish pie r.t. is seeking a third consecutive term in power and polls there head of the vote do suggest that

his right wing party will retain its teeth majority in parliament turnout is expected to be at almost record rates with around seventy percent of the electorate tipped to come out and cast their ballot victor all the ban has been in power since twenty ten previously served as prime minister between one thousand nine hundred eight and two thousand and two his hardline stance on the eve and immigration has created friction there within the bloc hungry oppose the refugee resettlement scheme and built a fence along his country's southern border to stem the flow and while driving strong economic growth all bonds administration has also passed a number of controversial and populist laws and a political expert told us a win in sunday's election is likely to ease tensions with brussels. if viktor orban in the future succeeds or the election is going to probably continue the year and immigration agenda and they're going to continue their conflicts with european union of course because

a success means an empowerment by the waters so there's going to be probably more coffee to the european union but it could be also happened it's going to be a symptom for european leaders and they try to stop this order phenomenon before before other countries would follow this example. people in a district of paris kind that their lives are being ruined at the moment by gangs of young migrants by say that drugs there are some fights on the streets to make it dangerous to live there. reports. as you exit the metro in much of paris is eighteenth out of the small the first thing you go chase groups of young men. locals claim them migrants mostly africa they say they formed gangs and generally wreak havoc theft is common and it's clear even the police this area that's popular. within minutes were offered advice from an officer of the gulf of mexico

for a lot of it but he still got them to see police stopping and searching their banks. locals say they're being terrorized by a group of around sixty juveniles migrants from morocco but because their teenagers the police rarely do anything more than give them a caution before letting go again. of fighting between them live with knives you know what time of night when it gets down. on the floor late like five six o'clock the fog of you know. looks like the guard or the like the ones probably down to loving them it's. like yeah you know it's like like you know lady like you know it's. like you know that would be.

yes yeah yeah it's like you know it's your fall it's like easy to know is under all the legs for me from all polite you know this is part of the gang he was referring to they look like young children but local say they've had enough of them fifteen hundred have signed a petition for action those who know the area say residents are taking precautions . as you should be putting the first move of the she. got to. the city parents tried to deal with the problem the teacher allocated seven. year this new sentence trying these children off the streets but it seems most show no interest in the fees and support it seems they prefer to make for the streets surviving on the mystery birds charlotte. paris.
