i know our target children are told are you ok. no collusion says the u.s. house intelligence committee as it delivers its final report into alleged russian meddling in the twenty sixteen presidential election. three protesters are reported dead and almost nine hundred injured during clashes ingalls or on friday in the latest great march of return as palestinians protest against israeli occupation. and it's revealed the key witness in the russian doping scandal going to be rotating call failed to confirm a number of his allegations during testimony at the court of arbitration for sport .

thank you for watching the news headlines here at r.t. international broadcasting live from moscow i'm kate partridge now no collusion that's the verdict of the u.s. house intelligence committee which found no evidence that donald trump's twenty sixteen presidential campaign was working with russia r.t. jacqueline berger looks into the committee's report. if you've heard it once you've heard of a thousand times but here it is once more for those of you in the cheap seats the russian active measures campaign against the united states was multifaceted he leverage cyber attacks covert platforms social media third party intermediaries in state run media the house intelligence report begins with a novel idea the american people rightly want to know what the russians did and how and well each section starts off with accusations of what the kremlin did where the evidence is meant to be there is just a bunch of blacked out text nevertheless the committee concludes that russia's goal

was to sow discord in america and cast doubt on the democratic process that's apparently with point zero zero zero two percent of u.s. election related advertising on google and with an equally huge amount of ads on facebook twenty five percent of which were never seen by anyone that's in the report still the aim was apparently achieved and is the sole reason for the expansive divide that has grown in america since the election rush's active measures campaign achieved its primary goal of inciting division and discord among americans for more than a year us politics have been consumed by busy recriminations charges and countercharges about the attacks it's wholly unclear how russia's alleged actions are responsible for the political chaos that has ensued since trump took the white house it wasn't russia reporting that term's former campaign manager has connections to ukraine spelled out collusion one of the many theories that the report shoots down the charges against the for president transform a company in manager perceived more than seventeen million dollars in secret

payments from a kremlin linked to political party in ukraine but it was the american media that hypothesize that trump jr is meeting with a russian lawyer proved moscow was supporting trump donald trump son think he was about to get help from a russian lawyer with ties to the kremlin this is looking more and more like treason all these strange behavior from the president it's all explains now a stream of lee. by the intelligence community condemned by the report as damaging national security wasn't orchestrated by the kremlin who are also learning from your sources that intelligence officials they denied n.b.c. news is learning from intelligence sources u.s. intelligence sources tell c.b.s. news or even take him back half of team trump was accused of meeting with him and that threaten their jobs but the report says there was nothing sinister there also there the controversial russian ambassador sergey look of course of the pictures of course is shameful picture where the united states press corps was kept out by the russians were allowed in there is an open question whether there was collusion

cooperation between trump associates during the campaign and russian officials all of that discord was home grown so after a year of searching that included seventy three interviews nine hearings and briefings and the review of countless documents were left with the conclusion of no collusion and as much proof as we had before the report was released meaning little to none this is so sad so pathetic so embarrassing now all of the harm that was done from the accusations all of the the talk about discord diplomatic this core embassies two superpowers and gauge didn't is our will back and forth how do we do this where do lovers of logic and justice go to to we deem ourselves from this will the house intelligence committee has a republican majority despite station this report respond to the democrats on the

committee say they will continue to probe the documents has been lauded by president trump he tweeted wow what a total witch hunt must end now while democrat congressman claimed it was floored political activists karen create caskey thinks the u.s. political environment was trouble long before any alleged russian involvement. i was surprised actually that the report seeing does confident as it was that there had been some success in a so-called active program by the russians or anybody else that campaign and everybody who's watched our campaign know the primaries and we had something like seventeen different republican candidates had horrific divisions in the democratic party during this primary that they had to me that seems very difficult to prove given the political environment united states specifically over the last several years. three people have been reported dead and almost nine hundred wounded in the

latest palestinian antiwar keep ation rallies in gaza that's according to the palestinian health ministry the protests are part of the six week great march returned demonstrations. on the current. we are in the central hospital in gaza strip where this hospital received all the injuries from the fat fans fans that area from the five locations that are protesting that the first friday of the great their great march of return and today's fighting is titled is that you propose where the youth are protesting. this

friday and now this is up another injury that's came just right now from the fans but there have been severe injuries in the had and in the legs and arms without accounting for bond in the post minutes we received at least ten people with. severe injuries to the stomach and they will die any minute the ambulances are still carrying hundreds of injured people to the hospitals there is a lack of medicine and medical equipment in the hospitals. so as you see this is another ambulance just came just right now. from a look at your defense and as you see this the ambulance has at least four palestinians that have been injured what happened right now the fences that are at least two thousand palestinian protesters and try to interfere and break that the fence and what happened is those are your forces and i reacted there violently and they started to shoot yes i know these palestinian protesters what broke the price

that according to palestinian minister brown at least there twenty palestinians are severe critical condition and they can declare their death in any any minute. now these images from the ground show journalists covering the rawest have also been injured over the past month forty palestinians have been killed more than five thousand wounded according to the u.n. well the u.n. has also denounced the use of live ammunition by the israeli defense forces against palestinians. israel's failure to consistently prosecute violations committed by members of its security forces encourages them to use deadly force against a fellow unarmed human beings even when they present no threat in the contests of an occupation such as gaza killings resulting from the uncle or for use of force

may also constitute willful killings which are a great breach of the fourth geneva convention. well the israeli army denies using excessive force against protesters it also accuses the palestinian political group hamas which controls gaza of using civilians and children in the demonstrations israel's defense minister has called on people not to approach the border l r t sophie shevardnadze i spoke with the i.d.f. sperm a chief of staff who says both sides need to compromise you are obviously a very patchy arctic man who has served and served his country are you able to take a step back and say this from a distance how unbending both sides are i think a thing to. think that both the palestinians and the israelis need. to give up in the illusionary dreams of getting rid of the other we are staying here they're staying here it's an israeli palestinian

challenge it should be in israel put this to me an issue was disappointed who decides to give this support and i really think that for the benefit to the future . the future of the palestinian kids that were born yesterday or today or will be born tomorrow and same still for my kids or other kids in israel it's most need to sit down and try to solve it with the help of the others but the others cannot solve it for us. now the former head of moscow's anti doping lab gregory wrote genk of those fail to confirm a number of his allegations against russian athletes this was revealed after the key witness in the doping scandal gave testimony via voicings to the court of arbitration for sport back in january in february the court upheld the appeals of

twenty eight russian athletes banned for doping but as every now given some of its reasons ati's it goes down of joy in my colleague andrew farmer in the studio earlier to discuss the developments. byrne first and foremost in the past few years that we've seen the scandal and revelation say it has been established that pretty much every single athlete in russia dops or it seems it was common knowledge at least that they had a special drug cocktail brewed performance that the swapped their dirty urine samples for clean ones through some hole in a lab wall so a lot of was said and was said by a man named grigori roche and of so he was the key witness he put forward the allegations but in the in the case basically during that hearing at the court of arbitration for sports he revealed that many of the stuff that he said was best circumstantial first and foremost he said that he never actually administered the

said cocktail which he claims he concocted himself he says that he never saw anyone administering these said steroid cocktail he didn't know how the cocktail was smuggled from russia abroad because well you know to be used in an international championship it would have to cross the border and also he's never been a witness to the mysterious you know you're in the swamp dirty to clean one he did say that his allegations came from basically talking to his colleagues but that was it when it comes to these allegations and in the past two years his words were taken at face value i should say no one questioned them and broaching of himself was propelled to fame even starring in an oscar winning documentary about the doping problem in russia have a look. i was hoping to facilitate what was a last elaborate employees in sports history was aware of the existence of

a russian doping system. toplevel to the. claims were the foundation of richard mclaren's report which was then used for a blanket ban on russian athletes and he was speaking to worsening in this court case what did he say well indeed sir richard mclaren a canadian law who basically pulled put the burden on his shoulders to compile a massive report on the scale of the dog problem in russia testifying in front of the same judge being cross-examined as well he said that basically while he did not shy away from mentioning athletes by name in the report in no way he said he meant to you know assume that they were guilty of something so basically being mentioned in his doping report did not mean he says that those athletes were complicit he also revealed he couldn't basically you couldn't explain justify to the court of

arbitration for sport why he trusted roger and why he never questioned his allegations also he refused to provide the names of other witnesses of you know of turn it of sources so to speak he used to put together the report so the good news for those thirty say athletes that had their appeals held but they would say well ok ok that is good news but the damage as far as we're concerned is already been done to our names well indeed because what happened back in february twenty eighth russian athletes they used to be banned for life they had been banned for life from participating in the olympics which means they were stripped of their medal as the future held nothing for them from that point no more achievements of just ruined the point of their lives so they have. revoked so they were reinstated they got their awards back and they basically the court of arbitration for sport said yeah they're good to compete and it happened literally

a few days before the kickoff of the olympic games in south korea so just guess how many of those athletes were actually invited to participate many of them still you know pursuing sporting careers none zero none of them were invited to participate many of them would love to saw there you have it you know mud sticks. well a new report by the world anti-doping agency on violations in twenty sixteen reveals italy as the worst offender russia was joint six but the only country banned from the lympics over toping allegations we gauge reaction in paris and new york to the new revelations. if i was in the say gee what country do you think was the number one duping violated in two thousand and sixteen which country would you name russia russia russia maybe between america and russia not quite sure. i would guess russia top the list russia

china no russia russia so what would you say then if i told you that russia was not the top violator in terms of anti doping in two thousand and fifteen they weren't even the second the third the fourth all the fifth but they were actually six in the report what would you say to that as fighting aids while it's surprising to me actually why for russia will be one of the top ones to be honest but i guess it's just what the reporters nowadays focus on this is easy news for them isn't that it makes me wonder if if you're going to like trust on the newspaper what priding well i just watch the news but i guess not so you hear about maybe it's just a sort of western take on things trying to tame the enemy and i think there was a long history of us blaming them for it certainly some good quarter. but everybody does the. more news after the break.

those the palestinians and israelis need. to give up. in the illusion every dreams of getting revenge on the other people staying here they're staying here and eventually we have to find ways of living side by side peacefully . like for many clubs over the years so i know the guy even so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the families it's the age of the shaper money to kill the narrowness and spend the two to twenty million one playa. it's an experience like nothing else only because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy like great

so what more chance for. peace minute. welcome back germany's chancellor angela merkel says the existing agreement with iran is not sufficient to curb its nuclear program the announcement came during the press conference following her meeting with u.s. president donald trump previously michael had stressed the importance of preserving the current u.k. deal with iran let's take a look at his statements. also by. the iranian oil it is not sufficient to see that iran's ambitions are curbed and contain that was me it is most important to recognize it is that iran through its ballistic missile program is trying to exert geopolitical influence in syria and lebanon and we have to see to it that this attempted influence is curbed what is contained and then beyond the iran deal the

reliability can be established influences of i can the isn't them and we believe it's better to have this agreement even if it's not perfect then you have no agreement and i will continue to discuss this but generally we'll watch very closely to ensure that this agreement will be honored. in all middle east expert paul en route believes the current agreement is achieving the aim of preventing iran from developing a nuclear arsenal your ideal is working right now in curbing iran's nuclear ambitions and that was the intention of the deal the right deal wasn't intended or designed to curb the other of ambitions that iran might have in the region if the german chancellor receives her focus on what the joint comprehensive plan of agreement is spending for which is just the iranian nuclear program and you should hopefully realize that it's a good deal and it's working i would hope that president trump were not trying to exert any geopolitical influence or you know any type of economic influence trying

to get others to abandon you know support for the deal because you know if you're saying it's a great deal it's working you know it was for there are ways that iran could have pursued nuclear weapons if it decided that's what it wanted to do and offshore ways curd also stuff so. america's new secretary of state mike brown peo has begun his role with a speech at may so saying the alliance will continue countering russian aggression artie's caliber weapon has more. there's only been in office for a day but now ex cia chief and recently sworn in secretary of state mike pompei o. is in brussels speaking at the nato headquarters we heard his remarks and during his comments to the nato officials he did reminisce about his time during the cold war serving as a soldier in the u.s. military stationed in germany this is my pompei o in brussels we talked a lot about that the changing nature of the threat from russia when i was

a young soldier it was seventy two tanks and sixty tanks rolling across the east german plane this is today is different and we collectively each of each nation individually and nato together must come up with solutions to address that there were lots of ideas there was an enormous consensus of the risk that it poses to the west stoltenberg seemed very receptive to mike pompei are very happy to be looking forward to working with him this is still timbered responding to my calm pale his going on bodett experience including serving us a soldier in in germany during the cold war. provides him a perfect back room for being the top to promote over the north in states that wasn't exactly clear how his military service in the us army being stationed in germany during the cold war would help prepare pompei o for working as secretary of state of the united states in nato that was exactly made clear now in his comments

he did emphasize a kind of disappointment with germany because germany has not yet received the two percent military spending target expected of nato countries at this point the germans have not yet fulfilled that expectation and increased their military spending to reach the two percent target furthermore a poll that has recently come out shows that germans are more afraid of donald trump the u.s. president as a threat they're more afraid of him than they are of. russian president vladimir putin so it's not exactly clear however the concepts of the cold war and his reminiscing about his service in germany during the cold war seem to be central in my palm pales remarks in brussels. local syrian doctors have testified they saw no patients with signs of chemical poisoning in the aftermath of the alleged attack in the town of duma witnesses explained how events unfolded on

april the seventh to the un backed chemical watched on the long side russia's representative a boy who appeared in a video the activist groups claim showed a chemical attack also spoke out that they have all right we were in the basement and then heard someone outside scream go to hospital we were scared they started to pour water on me i don't know why they did this. is. on the seventh of april i was in the emergency room treating patients injured during the fighting the same day around seven pm we started receiving patients with breathing problems and about fifteen cases this happened because people were nailing smoke and somebody from the only shows symptoms of choking and nothing more. because one missile hit a building nearby and a lot of dust got into the hospital rooms with. the screams chemical weapons chemical weapons were used to create panic this lasted for about an hour we were treating the patients and send them home so i have no fatalities or instances of

people suffering from a poisonous substance is. these testimonies were apparently not enough to change western you know stream media stars on what happened in this how low do you have to go to bring a little child all the way here and threaten them. yes my son is young and it's been difficult for him to make it here a flight here is no easy thing so little has signed his told you the truth something you do not want to hear it was a necessary measure we needed to show that there was a live in a very dangerous one. for independent research of a disability who's just returned from do condemn the western media coverage of the event. well actually i am surprised and i'm shocked at the levels to which west of me. has stooped over this alleged event in germany and the moral bankruptcy and degeneracy that was saying from western media i mean to accuse

russia are basically exploiting a child in years of playing the evidence of eleven year old has and after western media has cynically exploited children throughout the history of this conflict and if we don't have to go back to far to remember. in east aleppo it is almost whatever evidence is produced now it will be perceived as being influenced by russia or by syria i mean we've already seen the british government and western media if you like laying the ground for saying that russia had already pretty tampered with the site before the new comment so we can almost predict that p.c. w. find no evidence of chemical weapon use in that area the next line will be russia tampered with and sanitized and sprayed affirmation around the site before a.b.c. w could get there when i spoke to people in duma. as medical start

in the same hospital in the medical point that received victims on that night they all also told me exactly the same thing as people are now hearing in the hague and also when i went outside and spoke to civilians only seven hundred meters away from the alleged attack they were also all saying the same thing to me that there was no chemical weapon attack. the u.s. will expand its fight in syria according to defense secretary james mattis the move was said to be in response to the growing danger coming from myself it contradicts president trump's recent statement saying he'll soon withdraw u.s. military forces though there have always been arguments about why they should stay we are not withdrawing you'll feel. reenergized effort against the middle euphrates river valley in the days ahead and against the against the the rest of the caliphate going to stay for several reasons stabilization system in the fight on

north and northeast protection of our allies to identify those responsible for using chemical weapons in syria to pursue a diplomatic resolution be a part of what will be a widening effort across the world to achieve a political settlement to set the conditions for the united nations backed geneva process to succeed america does not seek an indefinite presence in syria under no circumstances the problem for the western belligerence is that the syrian arab army and its allies principally russia but also the lebanese resistance and the iranians have very largely crushed the force that trump is there supposedly to defeat isis and. jaish al islam have been defeated so maintaining

a pretext for being there will not be easy you specially when the bought it and as i promise you they will when the box holding the foreign soldiers begin to blow up with dismal and bloody regularity. well for more on these and plenty of other stories thing go to the web site are saying don't come otherwise i'll be back at the top of the hour with the latest headlines see you again that. could be prouder of the older guys are so nice that. they're going to write it up to be hanging on the morning of the digital journalism you know. would have made us

ridiculed when you're on drugs is no no no no no target children are told or you want to. wash or buy gold it's like finding gold mine gold is like a three little piggies right that they you know where one lives in a fiancee alistair house is blown away by the huffing and puffing of the big bad field wolf and then taking a number two you got countries like india they're like one step it was step back a second household sector has all the gold their government doesn't exactly and then the big bad bill will often fall to the people the problem is that to survive the government has blown away then you've got the countries like china and russia that have said wow stay out of twenty four carat gold bullion and the big bad theo walcott the pot and it didn't blow their house away. los angeles the city of luxury and fame but also an alarming number of people

living in the streets. the simple fact in l.a. years there's just not enough shelter even if people on the streets right now decided to come in there's no where to come in and it's been a struggle. this man found his own response to the problem and constructed dozens of tiny homes for people in need of shelter when you have nothing in order to go. you know having something like this may as well be a castle but do the authorities accept such solution tiny house on a city parking space is not a solution her off to someone monitoring the site otherwise it will be a free for all there a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. we are on the world famous copacabana beach in rio de janeiro home.
