i. feel. himself in the middle of the disorder. according at least the russian defense ministry. has reportedly. reportedly.

hearing. thanks for joining us this. over the last few hours police have been clashing with protesters in a french town near the city of not. using crowd control measures to break up an environmental squatter camp. no doubt. you.

know. the protesters belong to the so-called movement which comes from the french language zone to defend the stand off against the construction of when he has been ongoing for more than four decades now on his short of doing skis on the scene. oh god the. world thank you for your world will know you will be if you. will. make. her out that. this land was scheduled to be part of an airport development

many people are against that people moved into the land they took over they built a coal mine of the many years many people say that this is now the family land they farm here and they want to protect it the government said they had to be out by the end of the winter they would give them until last week to leave the being given extra weeks grace and what's happening now is this is the battle between the police the c.r.s. of the government and the protesters the saddest who say that this is their land and they will do anything they can to defend it they've been throwing bottles they've been throwing fire at the place and the police have been responding in kind with tear gas at times it felt like this so the sky was raining with tear gas here and our colleagues artie's video agency will caught up in that take us. inside. because you. already are you ready for the fury and they want you to see

well as you can see now the scientists have let fly to one of these a very case the police are just about one hundred meters down in the distance ready and waiting for whether they going to charge forward as you can see the ses throwing foil works except the police and the police do respond in kind to that to tear gas and i just want you to just look around me and you can see all of the smoke. and that is because it literally has been raining down with tear gas today in not down the land we are surrounded it is incredibly difficult to breathe we keep being moved on by that gas is actually chlorine to my skin because it hurt so much and the people here are prepared they are also firing projectiles in the direction of the c.r.s. into the police and they just understand that one of the c.r.s. offices has been injured by one of this project does this been taken to hospital and we've also seen some of the protesters here injured as they've been involved in

those clashes with the police the tear gas just all around us i mean it looks like we are covered in smoke if you look behind me there's a fire up in that in the background so just want to take you to have a look at this down this is one of the rocks that they've been throwing at the police and gendarmerie some of those have apparently hit some of the gendarmerie and i also want to take you to have a look at some of the other things going through including this one person who was attempting to throw a molotov cocktail at the police but it didn't go so well. it's expected that this could take a couple of days the government is determined that it will do everything within its power to expel the hundreds of scientists who made this land their home the saddest say they will do everything to defend the land that they say is their home.

israel was behind a missile attack on syria's largest military base says russia's defense ministry here on monday a number of rockets hit an airfield with at least a dozen deaths reported let's get more updates now from franco life in the studio with us what we know so far really are some more details coming in from this morning. well dan hi again di israeli air force regularly targets pro iranian pro assad militias in syria but usually they don't comment on that just like they did in this case but the timing of this possible strike by israel really turned things upside down for everyone what it was could we see from this well because of the build up here of things happening in syria in april for the second year in a row could really put the world on the brink of a global conflict last year after an alleged chemical attack in the province syria

donald trump a launched tomahawk missiles on the assad troops there then of course u.s. russia ties completely fell apart and the syria peace process was thrown off track there were consequences for everyone so last saturday this year we had reports of chlorine gas being used in the town of duma which is besieged by damascus last year though there was no military response from the west america specifically right away and washington has denied it had anything to do with this with this incident well there were signals that it could be in the offing first of all called president assad and once again then the amount of the leader of france joined in he said that the syrian government wouldn't get away with it and both of them again blamed iran in russia for this but on the other hand last week the russian president vladimir

putin warned that moscow house the telegin is that some of the militants there in east were prepping a chemical attack to the rail the peace efforts also following the reports of this use of cloran in do mother russian foreign ministry said that anyone who could potentially attack syria will face the most serious. sequences and then suddenly boom israel launches this apparent airstrike i mean all these incidents they come on the back of deepening tensions hostilities between russia and the west and you rounds of sanctions of the strip all case an emergency u.n. security council meeting what ramifications could we see as a result of these incidents well first of all we don't know if these specific incidents will be followed by any military action by the likes of the u.s. and france so they warned against it they said they could do it we don't know if

they will follow up with israel doing this right now as we're hearing from the russian ministry of defense but also we understand that later on monday there will be an emergency security council meeting at the united nations but i want to look at this in context for that just check out our board by board fifty of my colleagues on the allegations that were put against president assad when it comes to that use of corn gas in dubai. east ghouta is almost over ninety percent has been liberated by syria's government the army of new. affiliates mists they've lost opting to take the busses to rebel territories.

and the vast majority of rebels surrendered and negotiations are underway for the handover of the last rebel stronghold on the cusp of victory as is now tradition assad goes against all reason and logic he's won this battle and launches chemical weapons at civilians according to his enemies he can't help it united states continues to use all efforts available to hold those who use chemical weapons in syria and otherwise it cannibal the regime's history of using chemical weapons

against its own people is not in dispute. russia warned repeatedly that this may happen they had intelligence a month ago that rebels were preparing to stage these attacks why not if they can't fight if they can't win why not try to provoke an international intervention it's worked before that is not to say we're jumping to conclusions meanwhile in a besieged enclave of eastern due to rebels are continuing to leave the last group has finally agreed to be evacuated to the north of the country we spoke to some doctors who worked in duma during previous reports of chemical attacks in the area . there was one case i faced on january thirteenth at six am reports came in about the strike and the use of chemical weapons six people were hospitalized we examined them and found no problem with the airways they were just scared and i think that pointed to it and it was impossible

to talk about it even after analysis of blood. work there were also cases on january twenty second of february twenty fifth during the medical examinations nothing was found people had the symptoms of panic and fear poisoning. discuss this i'm joined live by political analyst thanks for joining us good to have you on the program the israeli airstrike or at least what the russian military saying is an israeli strike it's come at a very tense time in syria what do you make of the timing of this whole incident. i think one hour ago the syrian army spokesman that it was. for said that by a fifteen from libya in the skies and they made the launch a missile against the four bays and syrian army would shoot down

five of those five missiles i think here this is a. right is backing terrorists groups and militants who are fighting the syrian state because we. have to be for the syrian army that is there it is into the beginning to back there was militants who are actually they are allies and. they are. inside syria. how could this strike affect young going conflict i mean do you think it will spark more tension as a security council meeting tonight presumably will see some some strong rhetoric there presumably some some diplomatic consequences some military consequences how do you think it will affect the resolution here. i didn't hear a question really about if you are talking about any kind of political resolution.

yes how do you think the strike will affect the ongoing conflict obviously there's the dialogue negotiation going to take place do you think that we put on hold now as a result of this of this very controversial incident. i don't think that they really should be effective and it will not make anything it will not make any change on the ground if you if we will talk about that is usually in good or political a visit in syria and this is as i told you that it didn't so that is a very it is very keen interest in syria and israel is it going to play a certain role inside syria to see to that of national community that israel is ready and it can intervene in syria and anything but actually this is senseless and. will not make any change on the ground or on the political live in israel of course so far at least denied to declined to comment either way on

involvement will see what happens at the security council meeting political analyst . thanks for your time today on r.t. . hours the tornado of media speculation over the script continues to swirl it's now being reported that are being offered new identities by u.s. intelligence as both the former russian double agent and his daughter appear to be recovering follows the asians attacked last month in english city of salzburg however a family relative believes there would be no reason for you or to a home in moscow victoria spoke exclusively to the roughly video agency after she was denied a visa into the u.k. . is a very i ask you do you keep and you personally reconsider the decision to refuse my gleason. are scared that i will find out something more that he will tell me something yes try to me please you not the crime one but m i five 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 this is a start she was told yes you can talk which meant that she was being guided meanwhile the british foreign secretary boris johnson has branded the opposition labor party leader the kremlin the useful idiots that's jeremy called and refused to blame russia for the poisoning and he said he takes a closer look at johnson's recent statements. boris johnson's been caught out a fair few times in his role as british foreign secretary sometimes doing the wrong thing other times saying the wrong thing and this time his blunders have taken the form of the written word is after a series of unfortunate events at the u.k. foreign office having to delete the old tweets and post new ones boris johnson felt it was time to get the facts in the script straight once and for all. boris writes that britain's porton downs chemical weapons lab the tide ten to five the substance

used have been developed by moscow well we remember the porton down interview slightly differently we have no verify 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 eat you know the scientific evidence that identifies for the particular and their future is typically you will not tell you to look cool down to say where it is from we haven't yet been able to do that. within the last decade russia has investigated ways of delivering nerve agents probably force us to nation and as part of this program has produced and stockpiled small quantities of novacek hold your horses the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons has confirmed the destruction of all chemical weapons and russia actually the elimination of weapons that the last facility to hold such chemicals was in fact a knowledged by the international watchdog last year. boris writes that russia has

an obvious motive for targeting sic a script oh well that appears this obvious motive has zero value russia knows the double agent wasn't of any importance off to me having to be part of the spy swap. he was handed in to britain as a result of exchange so why russia and even. a man that is of any importance or that is of any value it's unimaginable why not take the death of one spy into another that seems to be the firm favorite for boris the fate of alexander litvinenko murdered in london in two thousand and six demonstrates the kremlin's willingness to kill someone in this country the russian duma has actually passed a law that allows the assassination of extremists overseas first of all it's never been proved moscow was behind slip an anchor's death and secondly former spies are not exactly streaming us but to follow boris is logic the kremlin is simply willing

to kill someone in person off the listing these facts boris comes to the same old conclusion that only the russian state has the means motive and the records to carry out this crime a lengthy and thorough investigation carried out by the best scotland yard detectives military and come to expect it oh wait now if by the man becoming rather notorious for his gaffes or restraint we've also spoken to james tor a chemical weapons expert who believes it's extremely easy to make nerve agents if the structure of the chemical compound. it's not possible to know where a nerve agent has been produced whether it's whether some one country or another it's not possible to to identify that to a certain country that there's many well published formulas of nerve agents and the structures are known and the toxicity profiles are known so so many people can make nerve agents they know what structures to go to go to work but the only way you could get the exact source is if the nerve agent were not very pure so if it were

not very pure and you found at a particular site the same impurities in the sample as you're finding it some other location then you could say there's a high probability it came from from that source but unless you've had samples like that it's hard and if if it's made by a nation state that knows what they're doing and the purity is there then you don't have any impurities to mark against it would be very hard to to name it to a specific location or a particular laboratory stay tuned for more news off the bike including on the latest from the election in hungary well back in just a few moments. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics. i'm showbusiness i'll see that.

for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question by the way was going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star and the huge amount of pressure you have to the center of the beach but how would you. grade the grid if you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get down there we have to go. alone. and i'm really happy to join the team for the two thousand and thirteen world cup in russia. this special one was also appreciated me to just say the review the r.t. team's latest edition to make up as we go. back

to the program hungary's prime minister viktor orban it has let a victory rally in budapest to follow sunday's general election with almost all of the ruling coalition has won one hundred thirty three seats in parliament that gives them a two thirds majority addressing supporters said the result gives him the opportunity to defend hungary. maybe name start regarding the results so i can tell you dear friends that it was a big battle and we've gained a decisive victory we've created the opportunity for ourselves to defend the country as a country hungary is still not where we would like it to be but it's already started it shows for itself we're going to move together this way. holden stronger and immigration starts as one support from and he established parties across europe but from the e.u. officials who vote short on whether to strip what oppressed of its motoring rights

political analyst. told us tackling immigration is proven a vote winner telling the truth or some majority of the people voice and standing by the campaign voice messaging and decor and message is that the immigration be stalled and it towards be not allowed for migrants to enter the hungary and territory that was the fetus messaging of course i expect further tensions between grass europe be a uni on and hungary and government because or ban has already said. leadership will do your european union on one two or implement you will measure us on immigration policy in.

their hunger the end got them and. in other news ahead of this summer's world cup in russia the asto and england legend sol campbell has been visiting one of the host cities volgograd he was the star attraction of a football festival which has been traveling around the whole country during his long career campbell played seventy three games for england he even captained the team as well he won the premier league twice and played in three world cups we managed to get an exclusive interview with him. i'm sure in the deaf in the world cup we rushed in but so far people being warm and open the park has been great it's a great set up of a second to be slightly bigger with a big screen for the close to the water's edge but from a the gauge went everyone's happy russia will put

a fantastic show on just like sochi amazin they want it to be proper i think all the journos who who reported you know the highest level and i mean you know it will break a lot of barriers down and i think probably surprise a lot of people back home in a world it's all been put together. in the first black captain to lift a cup probably the whole lot of people though that. you know is you know. kept in they've been a couple of final and it's great to soak up those steps as old wembley steps and and have a little bit history as well. and politics should never mix and. the sport is the winner that's the main thing and that's what you've got to do what everyone has to do to kind of win the day regardless of what's happening above . above sport. allow it to happen because you have to just let it happen because

that's it's a different kind of different galaxy. yes it does clash for sure it's inevitable that it's going to clash but keep it separate. headlines for the south for myself on the team me. time to get. local ball. dropping bombs brings police to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles they're going. to do sox credit tell you that they'll be gossiping probably by files before they. talk about telling me you are not cool enough

to buy their products. we have all. one. because the slowness of the blood of them so much. good us who was before. much of those who heard it's a very few other movies who see him with the north we will. move don't move. move she didn't look beautiful the militants who glitter good are. more muslim also his dulcet good you've gone for good girls. to go to shows a look look you're the same you belong to the show it's good to go. starts

to. get to me to do it with the little missed dates to look at is it's. just not just chance to just meet them ashton truck stop the president and the speech from his party to. the three of petitions to toast listening to snippets on little knew of because that is the cousin with you for your supporters to your sheep station shouldn't for you should cook door for one whose job is the request.

well. this is the paradigm where. five years ago it was all grass. like that over there now we have this. the pumper go on day and day out we didn't have any choice really we could have put it over that way or ways i mean we could have moved it a little bit. but we have to let the people that own the mineral rights get to those mineral rights and they compensated us for what they took here but the company built it and we have it now for own next forty years i'm guessing i don't know. my house up there and there we have we used to have a beautiful view. now we have this to look at brings in a little bit of money very little if it took us out of here and get back all the

money i've made off of it. but it wasn't going to happen. some day you know on oil is all pumped out of the ground they will come back here and level it out and turn it back into farmland but that's. you know like i said it's going to be out of most of our lifetimes it will be out of mind for sure. you have nothing to say about where.
