that there is no alternative explanation because only russia has made movie chalks fails. britain's decision to classify almost every aspect of what happened and the investigation is called the room and mill running but there are tidbits that have leaked out tidbits that have the scientists crashing their heads the interesting thing with nova chalks is that there are so many of them and they come in so many different forms they can come in a powered as solid as a crystal and even as a liquid but just to give you some reference if this was a variety of the nuvi chocks a single drop is enough to kill ten people ten people within minutes if this was in the hailed even more units whimpering that we can hail the symptoms appear and follows in minutes if it gets in the skin symptoms and birth can take

from minutes to hours. at first one might think that the script owls could only have survived because the dude's had to be very small but the reported symptoms don't match they simply missing if indeed this was a nuvi chalk a nerve agent at work the script balls were very fortunate british medics must have realized quickly what was at work here or else have a miracle cure for a new nerve agents there's no other explanation. more of the week's top stories after this short break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confront cation let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic development only.

exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. and. something happens in this case it was the chemical attack on civilians in syria and then the public in the media are waiting for the response i think it's very clear now that if president trump said that there is going to be a response then it will be i just think that our expectations in a way that this american response will be so severe that it will be a game changer i think this is not the case it will again be messages and very careful calculation by the americans not to deteriorate into a clash a direct confrontation with russia.

welcome back well this week saw another wave of clashes between police and environmental activists near the french city of non's tensions in the area have escalated since the deployment of thousands of police officers earlier in the week activists known as the scientists have protested for a decade against the construction of an air force near the city some even built makeshift houses and moved in there since plans for the airport were finally rejected in january police have been trying to forcibly evict them low correspondent paula dobriansky followed the events as clashes came to a head at the beginning of. a week. her. home. if you will you will be if you feel the. 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 commune over many years many people say that this is now their family land they they farm here and they want to protect it the government said they had to be out by the end of the winter they were given until last week to leave they've been given an extra week's grace and what's happening now is this is the battle between the police the c.r.s. all the government and the protesters the saddest who say that this is their land and they will do anything they can to defend it if in 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 the sky was raining with tear gas here and a colleague's artie's video agency will caught up in that take us on friday. because you. are reading writing off your. work well as you can see now the scientists have lit fire to one of these

a barricades the police are just about a hundred meters down in the distance ready waiting for whether they going to charge forward 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 here in not to down the line and if you look behind me there's a fire up in that in the background it is incredibly difficult to breathe we keep being moved on by that gas is actually chlorine at my skin because it hurt so much . real room. for you. no board room 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 and they just understand that one of the c.r.s. offices has been injured by one of this project as has been taken to hospital one person who is attempting to throw a moment of cocktail at the police but it didn't go so well.

but as you can see behind us the c.r.s. and the police have come into another zat is point this is a point where. a couple of dozen people were trying to hold off as you can see the police are pushing the way they steer gas in the air already they've brought dogs in his well they are absolutely determined that they will move the saddest away from this camp we saw one man with a placard saying no violence he was taken away by the police as he was trying to peacefully resist what's happening here what we can see is the police are now 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 saddest or the activists they can then bring the bulldozers in to get rid of these buildings this is sheer brute force by the state and it is working

because they are clearing this site assortments been occupied for many many years is sad could be over for the many people thought it would be the clashes also still continuing to tear gas is still being spread well here in the city of north which is about thirty kilometers south of not too dumb to land where those clashes were taking place today as the police were going in and raised the ring the scientists homes and structures and we've also seen those clashes from today come back out into the streets tonight there's been plenty of cheap gas and people are saying they are. i get really angry. when relations between the u.k. and russia must be at an all time low but that hasn't stopped british football fans from traveling to moscow for the new way for you or a police ahead of the c.e.o. mosco also game on thursday media outlets runs threatening all signals about what lay ahead for english the portas parties these are all they met up with one also

super fun to see if the headlines were true. this on my way to consider you a very prominent hostile fan going to be also knew him when he travels to mosco does he have any fear is regarding the political tension between the u.k. and russia is he worried about things like hooliganism. follow him throughout his trip how do you feel trapped in there in this context you know. there's been a lot going on between the governments we're offering between the governments i'm a person this is football we're going for football you know if you listen to people around you in the u.k. lots of people are coming up to me and say robbie don't go there you'd be mad in an oil some of you been to russia and i say well no i haven't come out are can i get advice for someone who has been there have also been concerns with regards to find safety so for example hooliganism and also racism you know you've seen

things about russia and things of happened in russia that's not going to be a problem but up in qana encouraged because of a lot received e-mails from groups over there in russia saying to me that lisa ruby is not nearly as bad as what it's made out to be. just on the plane about to head out to russia. and we're looking forward to it. it's a place i'm never before. to a thousand also supporters come over to watch the game many of them have been advised by the foreign and commonwealth office as well saying they could be an op take over anti british sentiment amongst some russians due to the heightened tension between the two countries at the moment well i mean already.

we're very worried about coming here and it's uncertain actually so it's all right there's no tension between also. sponsors or is it the politicians get on with. you know we don't want to look around moscow ceremonies will be noisy these peace game how will they know if the cities are really good if you know would you woke up so we could say we love the russia we love the russian people the friendship that we create here on the relations yes and really get the politics the politicians i like it still going to life and i was a bit skeptical when i first called because of all that what was going on and what not but when you commit yourself when you see it that has no purpose and haven't seen any. sentiment has been at moscow's been incredible it's just

incredible city and everyone is friendly enough the russians are lovely i mean to say what happens between governments a lot happens between people are totally different i think such a thing on the international we'll be back at the top of the hour with all the latest will see here that. would make this manufactured sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling plus this. checked them so. when the final larry go round. the woman. we can all middle of the room sit. in the real news room.

move the voices it was very funny. money since it was almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the pay rises showed. that it was love to see 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 often this happens.

the welcome to worlds apart delage chemical attack on a damascus suburb has once again the put the world on the brink of a major confrontation and not just one as russia and the united states have been ripped as fissioning to have big guns israel says the moment to strike what it called the reining in assets in syria or so little respect for the country's sovereignty can be israel calmed on its own interest being. accommodated they have to discuss that i'm now joined by. an israeli air force veteran and columnist for the jerusalem post karl it's great pleasure talking to you thank you very much for joining us on such a beautiful day thank you for having me now before we go into discussing israel's rationale for attacking its neighbor militarily let me ask you about your own assessment of the situation in general you know the russian television package this

week about what kind of foods you are supposed to stock up on in the event of a nuclear strike i wonder you've actually come to a point globally when dot kind of knowledge may prove practical i don't think so i think this may be a bit overdoing it this far as where the region can go but certainly the the possibility of a miscalculation and deterioration into a regional war that is possible remember that we're talking about a global power is that israel is not a global power but we do have our interests are very vital interests which we are trying to protect now there was a moment when dan merrick an attack on syria seemed not just in abbottabad but also imminent and possibly expansive and evolving knowledge just syrian targets but since then both washington and i think if the european allies have stepped back a little bit. do you take it as

a tactical move or do you think there has been some reassessment about what has actually happened and do more perhaps they were assessment of what can happen as a result of the american strikes i think there's a problem in the way we perceive this something happens in this case it was the chemical attack on civilians and syria and then the public in the media are waiting for the response of course playing into this is also this very unique american president which tells us via twitter what he plans to do and so everyone is waiting for this attack remember that the last attack by the united states was also not a game changer but more a signal. and also here again is a for waiting we're sitting back and waiting for the american response it's not going to be toppling the syrian regime so it's going to be something calculated in the middle we don't know what we don't know when but of course this is the american calculation i wouldn't make a mistake of tying israel in.
