welcome it's just turned seven pm here in moscow you're watching r.t. international our top story palestinian medics are struggling to cope with the number of injured after a month of protests along the gaza border the international committee of the red cross says that hospitals there only get around four to eight hours of power per day the demonstrations have been met by heavy response from israel notably by sniper fire palestinian health ministry garza says more than two thousand people have received leg injuries a lack of medical treatment is also forced unnecessary amputations for one palestinian athlete it meant the end of his career. with the. gotta go russia the soldiers were brutally shooting people an old man got shot in front of me he was protesting peacefully and not throwing any stones and he got shot with an explosive bullet i spent six hours in surgery and then one week in the intensive care unit and i didn't think my. it would be like this i could not feel
12:02 pm
it but i had fractured won't that my leg kept bleeding out i wasn't aware that it would be amputated it seems like my relatives told the doctors not to tell me i was an athlete i used to play multiple sports and i used to play for the palestinian union replying to request for comment the israeli defense forces told us that issued repeated warnings to palestinians approaching the border fence they also cite there to prevent threats against their country for another young palestinian he dreamt of becoming a footballer his encounter with the i.d.f. was also life changing but. during my food will career i hope to be one of the best players in gaza after this injury and my football career is over with these really response with live fire during the protest i was filming myself as posted leader we sure have the right to do it while i was filming a sniper shot me in the knee and it was dislocated when i was targeted without
12:03 pm
warning that i wasn't a threat to the soldiers and all of our god helps me i will be able to have surgery and hold the palestinian flock high in the european countries my dream is to produce a p.d. in the european league that while human rights watch has expressed particular concern over what it says is the deliberate targeting of the legs of unarmed demonstrators by the israeli military the concern was raised by the israel and palestine director of the rights group care we spoke to him earlier. we continue to see every week hundreds of people injured very serious injuries we're talking about people who as you know bones have been pulverize shattered as aid workers on the ground have described as x. rays and photos we've seen in our visits to hospitals have shown people that have you know large massive exit wounds if people are actually crossing a fence entering israeli territory every right to use non-lethal means of
12:04 pm
a variety of swords to carry out an arrest if there has been you know a criminal act including a crossing you know from border without authorization but using live ammunition right now using intentional lethal force is only permitted under international law in response to an imminent threat to life or limb and that's not what's happening here these are these this is using force to accomplish other objectives which are not sanctioned by international law you of mortars that are on their face on lawful and really responsibility for these awful killings go to the highest levels of these really government well there has been a global backlash over the israeli military's response to the demonstrations in gaza since the end of march forty three palestinians died during that period including four children.

the south korean president has reportedly said donald trump deserves a nobel peace prize for his efforts to deescalate the situation on the korean peninsula in the storage meeting between the leaders of north and south korea so the two sides pledged to rid the peninsula of nuclear weapons before the end of the year apart from the need in the states agreed tom friday to formally end the korean war which dates back more than half a century they vowed to sign a peace treaty agreeing to involve the u.s. and china in the process was quick to take credit for the easing of tensions on the peninsula and his supporters and i was saying he should get the nobel prize for his efforts in a recent tweet he suggested to you he's more deserving than barack obama who was given the prize just after he became president at
12:06 pm
a rally on saturday his fans seem to agree. i was. so what are his chances then of scooping the prize his ego. the nobel peace prize an award for human rights champions peacekeepers and presidents who would later drop at least twenty six thousand bombs on seven foreign nations in just one year the prize is clearly viewed as such a meaty addition to donald trump's track record that someone under a stolen identity actually forged his nomination for the award two years in a row supporters of the idea have named the negotiations between the koreas as trump's main qualification for real this time. what do you think.
12:07 pm
president trump had to do with it i'll tell you what like i have everything with and as we've been told the trump has the best words and those he applied to north korea directly is a sick puppy rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself obviously he's a pretty smart cookie we all saw that intricate game of diplomacy we will have no choice but to totally destroy north korea they will be met. with fire fury witnessed trump a saying that whole quid pro quo thing we are sending an armada. or a pair of we have submarines very powerful and i will say this. he is doing the wrong thing is making
12:08 pm
a big mistake let's be frank those who call trump a peacemaker more or less share the logic of those who nicknamed vish gun a persuader trump style of making peace equally applies to iran big government that gives terrorists safe harbor financial back in i am speaking of course of a rare the rogue regime a rand can sprint towards a rapid nuclear weapons break though where no matter where you go in the middle east you see the fingerprints of iran behind problems for goodness sake here pointed as national security advisor a man who just last year thought this was a good idea and that's why the word twenty nine. here is a. serious felt the full
12:09 pm
impact of trumps peacemaking if things keep going the way they are the country will be celebrating the annual tomahawked day sometime around mid spring but again maybe a nobel peace prize and trump do fit together the end of the day after all why does obama get to have all the nice things but we spoke to journalist and author my experimental who does believe that the improvement in relations on the korean peninsula actually has nothing to do with donald trump. donald trump's policy towards the koreas has been one of hostility sanctions of threats fired theory as defense minister jim mattis threatened north korea with extermination and their policy essentially failed because nuclearization in north korea succeeded because kim jong un extended an olive branch to the south and because. has been so courageous in this effort to reconcile with the north and so really cause for
12:10 pm
donald trump to receive a nobel prize really reflect how insular and parochial view of right wing is right wing supporters is donald trump has really not played a role in the then it's around north and south korea. meanwhile donald trump could be back to start a trade war because new u.s. tariffs on imports of european steel and aluminum come into force and made the first something that brussels is making last minute efforts to avoid with more here's our europe correspondent peter all of europe certainly launched the charm offensive to make sure that that exemption remains in place just last week we saw french president of money with the german chancellor angela merkel over across the atlantic in the white house talking about a number of things but in particular this exception in keeping it but the words in the loving embrace as we saw between particularly missed the mark on president trump who are
12:11 pm
a long way shy of the stronger words we heard from the french president just last month that we can talk about everything with a friendly country that respects the rules like the w.t. you know but we can talk about when it's with a gun to our heads but whether they were to opt for the not quite all quit over a vocational contact between president my current president trump i just frankly quite awkward contact between the german chancellor and president trump it does seem. that the man in the white house may have already made up his mind when it comes to these tariffs going to sound so nice to you. you know why i mean they literally did i so they formed to take advantage of the united states and i don't blame them the tariffs that are being talked about are a twenty percent want to be levied on steel exported to the united states and ten percent on minium now the fact that these could come in is the first of may
12:12 pm
that prompted an emergency phone call on sunday evening between chancellor merkel president mark on and prime minister to reason may of the united kingdom they came to the conclusion that should these tariffs come into play then there has to be retaliations or we've got to look into what they may entail when we heard from john prodi younker the european commission president. so now we will also impose import tariffs this is basically drusus the fact that we have to do this but we have to do it now motorcycles harley davidson on blue jeans even eyes on bourbon we can also do stupid we also have to be this using the word coming out of the united states is that there will be an extension to this exemption but ultimately all that does is kick the problem down the road for another day and still leaves us with the situation that either the e.u. has to cave in and say yes they'll pay these tariffs or the united states has to
12:13 pm
say don't worry about it you get let off with this one. now with the local elections looming at the moment the alleged russian meddling saga has taken another twist because the sunday times claims that russian twitter boss did try to influence the twenty seventeen parliamentary elections in favor of the labor party leader jeremy corbyn. as the story. the sunday times has provided us all with a little russian bought deja vu its groundbreaking investigation with swansea university has cracked the code on how the labor party did so well in this year's general elections and the answer is russian tweets of course research that just that was not destroyed at the time superbowl corban and down the street by bombarding the public with positive messages in support of labor using twitter columns that were mostly created after the election was just that early last year so let's break down that research sixty five hundred russian twitter accounts identified by their primary language work to bash the ruling conservatives and
12:14 pm
promote the labor party in the run up to the election and a few examples are given as to how they achieve their meddling goals such as promoting stories condemning trees that may for cuts and police numbers and funding another point made in the article was the massive attendance seen corbin's rallies but even if the scores of people who showed up were only there are things to bots retreating corbin's location does that somehow make them not true supporters other suspicious activity it was a push by the box on election day telling people to get out there and vote how dare they say the article doesn't provide a list of the accounts they monitored and said that many of them have been deleted or suspended by twitter conservative m.p.'s have vowed to dig further into the claims russian interference in the politics of the u.k. is a breach of election law and something we've got to act to stop whereas labor representatives have slammed the article as a classic sunday times smear campaign the labor party's people power do election campaign attracted huge levels of public support online we're not aware of any from
12:15 pm
to me bot categorically did not pay for any not aware of any of our supporters doing so. other labor supporters have even chosen to embrace the accusations. now the report does not comment on who specifically was behind the campaign or how many people actually saw the tweets nor does it say whether or not the attempt was successful but the point is if a vote comes up with shocking results there's clearly no other plausible explanation apart from the russians did it well we have asked for a response from twitter and also for the times provide additional information about
12:16 pm
their research we will let you know when we get some responses now in the meantime former british intelligence officer and the newspaper's claims are all just part of a clampdown on alternative views. the west does not like dissent it does not like alternative views and the internet offered people the old the chance of developing these alternative news and as soon as you have one of those alternative viewpoints in the west you must of course be working as one of putin's useful idiots or as a russian troll bottle whatever it is we saw this last week as well there was a report on sky news and they were accusing two accounts particularly on twitter saying that they are russia russia bots they were human beings and so sky news invited one of these people on the news and he came on to sky and argue that he was a human being strangely enough and it turned out he is the source seventy year old pensioner who is just angry at what's going on politically in the u.k.
12:17 pm
so it's really risible trying to stigmatize british citizens who have an alternative view be more police need to have been accused of institutional racism we'll have a look at the details on that just after the break. 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 and by the way who's 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 and the great britain get you out of 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 for the two thousand and thirteen world cup in
12:18 pm
russia. this special one. needs to just take the radio p.r.t. teams latest edition make it up as we go. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. hello again today moscow thousands of people have been taking part in a protest against the russian government's decision to block telegram one of the country's most popular messenger with more details his. thousands of demonstrators have gathered here in the downtown of moscow to protest against the
12:19 pm
state's decision to block their messaging app telegram police authorities say that around seven and a half thousand people came to the center of the capital protesters at this rally are calling for freedom of the internet and they're also calling for the government to stop but its attempts to block the app now it was banned in russia because the company refused to share user dieter with the government and that was in violation of russian antiterrorism laws there is how the police presence those the protest has been peaceful telegram is a cloud based instant messaging service which was founded by a russian top are now. the app is considered to be one of the best for our online privacy thanks to its high level of messaging corruption the rally was endorsed by the founder of the app himself and also by a number of prominent russian opposition figures. the un has expressed
12:20 pm
serious concerns over the disproportionate number of black people dying in the u.k. excessive use of force by police the deaths reinforce the experiences of structural racism over policing and criminalization of people of african descent and other minorities in the u.k. the accusation of racism came after a review of police data it did find that officers used force against twelve thousand people over three months last year and one in three was black three the proportion of black people in the population is far smaller attention to the issue was highlighted by a controversial incident in july when a black man was killed by police. you trust me. if. i have. a case.
12:21 pm
i. thank. britain's home office has to investigate the allegations we discuss the issue with experts. the police a bit like james bond they have a license to kill with impunity and i say with impunity because we're never seems to be any justice i don't know of any policeman has gone to prison for killing a civilian on the streets of london at the end the evidence doesn't go so far as beyond reasonable doubt i think is one of the most impossible things to do to prosecute an officer and the only reason is the officers are there to protect us so it's quite a natural when you see a police officer in the dock in his uniform crime isn't driven by race crime is driven by socioeconomic factors or young males in inner london get involved in
12:22 pm
street crime and socio economic factors mean that there are more your miles an hour block in areas of an island than there are of other races but it's not the same in other cities and so when you look at the people involved in street crime in those areas the disproportionality is not there. but let's just update you on what's happening in armenia at the moment where people are still calling for political changes after three weeks of protests demonstrators have marched towards the central square in the capital of get a van to demand that protest lead in a cold passion and is confirmed as prime minister by parliament on tuesday protesting the former soviet republic of already led to the resignation of the premier so it c.m. and announcement of fresh elections to russian yan who insists that the rallies will continue is the only candidate nominated for prime minister however it's unclear whether he will get enough votes from the ruling party to take up the post
12:23 pm
