. in interviews not a single local resident confirmed the chemical attack every taken place the bodies of people killed by chemical agents have not been found. in his new show on. talks of the fee for president. shouldn't hesitate to come to the world cup and russia despite calls from some politicians and media to stay home. today welcome to this hour's global news update. doctors in salisbury have now confirmed has been discharged from hospital following last month's nerve agent attack but she's asked for the media to respect her privacy. is also on the road to recovery but at a slower pace. we have now discharged from salisbury district hospital

yulia has asked for privacy from the media and i want to reiterate her request her father has also made good progress on friday i announced that he was no longer in a critical condition although he's recovering more slowly than new year we hope that he too will be able to leave hospital in due course. let's get more now on this from polly boyko in london polly what more do we know so far. well we've just got that short statement from seoul's pre-hospital confirming that you your script file has been discharged from the hospital they've said that you asked for privacy from the media and the hospital said that it wanted to reiterate that request the hospital gave a bit of medical background as well they said the nerve agents they attach themselves to n zines and know those in juice sickness and hallucinations and their

job during the treatment of you. was to stabilize them ensuring that they breathe properly in the blood continues to circulate and they also did a lot of decontamination techniques and they said that both patients have responded remarkably well to the treatment that they perceive so you're has been discharged and notably they've said that this isn't the end of her treatment but it marks a significant milestone as you heard their father. is said to be progressing very well as well in terms of his medical treatment he is no longer in a critical condition and although he's not progressing as quickly as his daughter the hospital says they hope that he can leave to now outside of that statement by the hospital reports suggest that script file has been taken to

a safe and secure location is that she was discharged from hospital yesterday according to reports that she is now in an undisclosed location in order to be safe from all the media attention surrounding her just to remind you this comes about a month to just over a month of to were originally found slumped in the center of souls very after being poisoned by what's now known to be this nerve agent of a truck and the government here has said. it's highly likely that russia was behind the attack which is something that moscow has consistently denied. a bit of good news there from solsbury and of course i disobey should of being discharged as well in the coming days and weeks perhaps because there were the latest updates on that case. now the scruples. have been poisoned by the so-called class of nerve

agents developed in the soviet union it was never of course officially called by that name it's said though to cause permanent damage and even death it's believed to be the most deadly set of substances of its kind the prime minister has previously said the script may never recover from the attack sadly late last week doctors indicated that their condition is unlikely to change in the near future and they may never recover fully. now the british foreign secretary boris johnson claimed the government's porton down military lab has attributed the agent to russia and confirmed it was something the lab itself as the night we spoke to all of the epic from the foundation for strategic research believes that if such a nerve agent was used it would be extremely likely to kill. to be very toxic highly toxic five to eight times more toxic than the x. which is already very very toxic so a small amount should have killed. for sure but what is

still very. difficult to assess today is how did was delivered to do victim so before we know exactly how the joke was delivered to the team it's very difficult to assess the amount of the chemical agent that was in contact with the victims. fake and stage that was the verdict of russia's envoy to the un over the latest alleged chemical attack in syria reports on saturday claimed dozens are died in the city of duma after chlorine gas was dropped on the area russia's envoy though failed to convince some members of the un security council with the u.s. said to be considering a tough response to the attack. do you worry yourself justice for killing the dog because the rest of those relying on. you know we're down to the decision at this point to independently verify the allegations history will record

this as the moment when the security council either discharged its duty or demonstrated its utter and complete failure to protect the people of syria either way the united states will respond. in the speech that it's ready to my best to give this should be smart is going to damascus. that. you're going to militarily and will. be letting you know pretty soon. actually launching your first. actions on the fool's pretext against russian troops are likely to lead to consequences. to be world police. prosecutors

executioners if you look at these pictures from inside the scene of that alleged attack russian military and chemical experts searched the whole area they found no traces of substances as russia's envoy to the u.n. explained. russia said it wants an independent body set up to investigate reports of the attack the move won the backing of the u.k. as well. and has more on what was said during the session. as the fifteen member body convened and we had a meeting of the u.n. security council we heard first from the representative of the russian federation he went on to talk about the fact that anti government fighters terrorist groups like al nasr and others there has been occasions in which. has been liberated from them and it's been discovered that they are stockpiling chemical weapons and that they have in the past used chemical weapons against the positions of the syrian government. but you consciously good move them because they didn't correspond with

dr no retirements of those who sleep in the liquidation of the official government contracts from there we heard from nikki haley the representative of the united states she went on to blame the syrian government for the attack and from there she said that the united states intends to respond to this alleged chemical attack regardless of whether the u.n. security council approves of that or not she she says that the usa intends to take action now her remarks come after donald trump said the usa was in the process of making some big decisions regarding the chemical attack in duma where you are studying that situation extremely closely we are meeting with our military and everybody else. will be making some major decisions over the next twenty four to forty eight hours. or so that nothing's off the table nothing's of that is

that a benzema pointed out that when donald trump said that nothing was off the table in regards to syria and the action that he might take these words sound very dangerous the implications of possible aggressive action from the united states in syria could be very severe and that the whole world should be deeply concerned about this kind of rhetoric and this kind of language coming from the commander in chief of the united states. voight started to speak on media outlets that don't seem to be holding back and giving their advice to president strumpet micron we spoke to former u.s. presidential kind of ron paul who's the chairman of the institute of peace and prosperity. tom when a crime is committed in this country to stations when they're not sure they're careful they say this is allegedly but they never do this under these circumstances

and they have zero bits of information it's only and over again they had to the person is guilty and that is that person is you know the russians and the syrians are guilty of a crime and it goes over and over again you know did that this script and then they finally had to give up here know that nothing came panned out so they had to go on to a new one so as one runs out of steam they create another fake news program. i think the least likely because saad this whole idea saw it's over and over again i probably heard ten times today assad is gassing his own people and i've said it every time i haven't a son and you know month or two later they prove that was absolutely wrong so i cannot see any reason why assad would do this there's no reason for a russian have done this there's somebody who wants to serve trouble and the people who want to stay there. protesters have started burning barricades while police are deploying tear gas near the french city of nods. between

environmentalists and police has and that second day security forces have been trying to evict protesters from the camp let's go live now to charlotte dubious new friend covering the protests now since the beginning charlotte clouds of tear gas we saw earlier in your report what's happening there now on the ground. well that seems to be a constant feature of what we've seen in zyad over the last two days since the police came in under the government of the the oldest of the government to expel the sadness from this site they've occupied this site many of them since two thousand and eight initially to protest against an airport but the markham government decided early this year that it wouldn't build that airport and it told us that this they had to either come up with new innovative ways of farming in order to stay on the land all they have to go they refused to do that saying they

wanted to keep this as a collective and therefore the government said ok you have until the end of the winter period which is a week ago it gave them another weeks grace and now they hate in force down i just want you to know we're in a field in one of the sites in the land you see sort of a long line of the police here in the field and then behind them you get a sense of all the military vehicles all of vehicles the police vehicles and we believe there are some military vehicles here ready to possibly take away these artists that are expelled from this site we know that some were expelled yesterday amid some fear. well using just a moment to stand their ground here we have seen plenty of tear gas from the police but we have also seen the protesters throwing projectiles as well to wards the police and i've been speaking to one of the scientists whose house is currently under imminent threat of destruction this is what she told us. i think i'm pushing

away any kind of really emotional attachment to the buildings right now maybe a cry later to me where all in this together and crashing a building on the on the side is crushing a building on the sides i think i cried first on the lawn i think. for me it just means that we have less buildings for all of us together and that's the shame i don't think i want to particularly attach a sentimental attachment to these buildings i happen to live in i have a fifteen month old child who lives here as well and he's not here right now because. because this i'm horrible people there and here guys. well we've seen the police dispelling that tear gas so much so that at times some of these fields look like they have been just covered influence of smoke have also been throwing molotov cocktails they've been throwing smashed glass bottles at the place sometimes just literally scraping up the mud with their bare hands and

throwing their hats at the police as well now in the distance so we are hearing what sounds like more tear gas being fired off that is a tactic being used to disperse the jadis so that the police can hopefully move forward and therefore take control of an area before a razor ring down buildings let's take a look at some of the action and what happened on day one of this expulsion. during . the world will you be if you will at least are just about one hundred meters down in the distance ready waiting for whether they're going to charge forward. the police and are trying to push everybody away a tactic that we've seen earlier in the day whether you choice by getting rid of all of the sadness or the activists. well two and

a half thousand police have been deployed to this site the government is determined this will be the last stand of the sides to say a word and they will come back or they will regroup somewhere else they will do everything within their ability to defend this land the land that they see as being their home doesn't look like they're going anywhere for an hour certainly does all over initially they are bound to be moved on charlotte dubin ski there giving us the latest updates just outside the french city of. now the u.k. government found itself accused of paying to teach palestinian students about malta them as one of moral not for you off of this for a short break. from .

politicians to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to press. him to go on to be press this is what before three of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. things should.

welcome back to the program the poisoning and the subsequent diplomatic fallout have given rise to a number of voices telling football fans to think twice before coming to russia for the world cup this summer president though says the action on the pitch not what's happening outside should remain the focus joining frontino open up to peter schmeichel the danish football legend who's got a new show right here on r.t. it is no secret a lot of tension between the world and the world cup host nation. how a fee for how are you dealing with i mean how you sort of coming in making this a best event in the world with all that's going on at the moment by focusing on for good i think that's the key and that's the secret we have to focus on for birthing there are enough. sadly people around the world to try to just

you know divide or argue or dispute or whatever we have to try to unite. football is uniting some of the spin from western media is that it's not safe to go to russia you know security is not good enough don't go off scene you know in england they're basically saying to the fans don't go it's not safe. what what would you say to that this is safe to go to russia of course of the safe to go to russia. for this and it will be very safe but he will even say for the world to russia during the world cup because the authorities in russia very much aware of what the world cup means and they want to show as we're welcoming country and preparations in terms of security for the world beyond any other.

event or any other situation saw the conditions will be there for a very safe world cup and obviously those who want to go and enjoy football and enjoy a part of the summer they should go to russia those who want to go to have riots or whatever they better be exactly go somewhere else. first and there's been anger in the u.k. amid claims british aid money has been used to buy books for palestinian schools which could promote violence the books are said to contain questions such as how many martyrs does it take to destroy the enemy it's led to accusations the u.k.'s damaging peace prospects by promoting anti semitism is some examples of the tasks that the children in my students must find the number of martyrs who died during

the two palestinian revolts against israel got a physics task here as well featuring a picture of a boy with a sling shot targeting i.d.f. soldiers. now the u.k. government has said it's against all forms of violence and tries to have dialogue with both sides of the conflict to promote a positive portrayal of each other our colleague neil harvey put the issue up for debate. it's a huge tragedy that the hardworking british taxpayer is funding and subsidizing palestinian terrorism huge amounts of the money from the preachers taxpayer unfortunately goes in to inciting violence against innocent israelis or is outrageous is actually typical people marc rich or apologist for the israeli the zionist occupation and now he's saying he is trying to make us to believe that those who are occupied should not even defend themselves i cording

to their right on their international law it is actually a right to resist illegal occupation and indeed it is their right and is their right to teach their children if we see in a physics task a picture of a boy targeting israeli soldiers can you not see that there's a great danger that that's promoting an aggressive viewpoint in the children promoting violence in their minds you know what i mean you know look at the reality that child is being brutalized by soldiers on a day. their whole lives their family their culture and you know you look at the time you think you know she didn't just as. she was in the house she was defending her culture who was shot in the face these people are going through brutality which is unbelievable by ourselves richard would you be happy to see books of a different type in their sport promoting something more diplomatic.

yeah of course that would be fantastic but it's just not the reality because the palestinian authority hamas massud very well the state of israel to exist. they don't want any peace they're happy to see the bloodshed continue while he's living safely in london he can talk all there was he's encouraging the violence that we're seeing incited by these textbooks. in other news the leader of the lebanese political party and militant group hezbollah has revealed washington offered to remove it from the terror watch lists and even give it financial aid only if it dropped its resistance to israel. picks up the story. the u.s. terror list arguably the most dangerous list in the world and if you're on the database you just seem there's no way out of big brunton international threats

right wrong if you want your name scratched off for good harry options you could become a friend of a friend the chief of hezbollah that any share political and military may have meant with links to iran says the united states offered the group the chance to be removed from its national terror watch list but there was a catch jay ability says and because you need a message from the u.s. was president saying that the u.s. is ready and that will be a part of the lebanese government billions of dollars and be removed from the ter list but on the two conditions first one is that work for the americans and the second is that will stop resisting the israeli you're patient israel's are very firm a strong ally so basically as long as you're nice to washington's friends i'm for fair the proof that money talks look no further than the people's moshe dayan organization of iran doesn't matter that you killed american personnel of civilians hiring top notch lobbyists will do the job politicians will back you at rally if

people who are islamic or what martin and secular t.v. ads will proclaim your innocence from t.v. screens. any k. is a ranch democratic opposition working for a nuclear free iran founded on human rights unjustly listed a terrorist group and he is the victim of. their rocky allies this next option is simple just sits and waits until the tax for me if noble peace prize winner nelson mandela waited till days before his ninetieth birthday what a nice present from washington and five years later at his funeral all was forgiven and forgotten so the people said that the world thanks you for your notes to go with us. his struggle was your struggle. but the people who were the birds and those that was right and the greater of the two it is the. same mentality now

widely seen as an international hey right was branded as an international threat to decades plus even though they tend. to be. here. that. i think is just like a red line for you that you would not designate russian jewish in this land as there is no god you know on the battlefield there are groups that nest together individual fighters or groups of fighters it's not a clean situation all the time so it's a pass that being on the u.s. terror list may have three missiles to do with that big terrorist however it is using what you might call the carrot and stick approach and rob the handy way for a government to achieve its strategic goals if you look and see who has been designated as a foreign terrorist organization by the united states they are always the governments that seek to be independent from the united states or have challenge us hegemony in their area or in their country thus the label is purely

political it doesn't really say anything about terrorism or about the people who are saying under the f t o foreign terrorist organization label it's a form of bullying on a grand scale. soulful myself on the team for the solace even so if you win it's full global headlines up its. sex geysers by the actual survival guide. when customers go by you're disappointed . in elf well reducing our. bets undercutting but what's good for market is not good for the global economy.

this is says harlan kentucky. over all of this move them voices people were very funny. a co money c.g. it was almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal was said. that it was a lot of these people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in the million years i would see that and it's how it's happened.

this is boom bust broadcasting around the world from right here in washington d.c. the belly of the beast i'm part sheltered and coming up as facebook continues to be in the news we've got. so. on the data wrangler back in the house to discuss and ashley banks discusses the death of local auto dealers as consolidation seems to be the wave of the future plus trade tariff talks continue as u.s. president donald trump tweeted yet again today alex behala bitch and i will bring us up to date and discuss what it may all mean now let's get to the stories topping today's headlines. new u.s. sanctions against russian individuals and companies announced last week by the trumpet ministration are roiling markets in russia moet index familiar to russian market watchers they are focused on equities fell nearly nine percent monday morning meanwhile on the currency front the ruble fell over three percent against
