report at least six people including children have been killed in an alleged saudi led air strike near the rebel held capital sanaa. this is r.t. international coming to you live from moscow i'm kate partridge thank you for joining us. the u.s. is facing a round with the e.u. following double trump's announcement he was scrapping the iran nuclear deal the other signatories to the agreement have expressed their willingness to keep it alive e.u. commission president john claude young said america has lost some of its way. forecloses says the usa turned away from multilateral relations with a ferocity that only surprised us the longer wants to cooperate with other corners of the world there is much need for europe all across the globe at this point we

have to replace the united states which as an international actor has lost vigor because of it in the long term influence many european leaders of being openly discussing their arnie's since president trump made that decision to pull out of the uranium new clear accord france's president mr mack has been talking today about the fact that europe now must make its own way and not follow others daughter three cents the. other powers it is just a sore and as us have decided not to respect their own work. should we renounce our own choice. we must choose and seek with everybody to succeed in building our own severances. hope we each in this region will be a guarantee of stability. ah

so much so that european leaders want to selvage this deal that ministers from france the u.k. and germany do to meet with representatives from iran on monday to see if there is any way that they can keep this deal a life without the united states meanwhile we've also been hearing from the german chancellor angela merkel has talked about the fact that now the usa has decided to pull out of this accord means that europe will have to greater responsibility we will freeze more responsibility in europe and foreign policy in the area of securing peace in the area of political solutions we must find the u.s. president decided that he would withdraw from the nuclear agreement with iran france the united kingdom and germany have decided that we remain committed to this agreement but we've also been hearing that germany and russia have said that they will maintain communications as all the other signatories to the terrain in nuclear deal want to keep that deal afloat and we've also been seeing other tensions

between the relations between germany and the united states after the u.s. a new ambassador to germany sent out a tweet in which she was giving the german companies who are working in iran some advice telling them they need to wind down operations immediately well that didn't go down too well with the former german ambassador to the u.s. passing on some sage advice that you don't tell a host country what to do essentially taking the new u.s. ambassador down a peg or two. a couple of hours ago at a rally with supporters donald trump announced he wants to make a good deal with iran. i hope to be able to make a deal with them a good deal a fair deal a good deal for them better for them better for them but we cannot allow them to have nuclear weapons they're already here was one of the most embarrassing agreements the united states has ever entered into

when we won after quitting the deal and promising in a raft of new sanctions trump has also been continuing his verbal attacks against iran he's blamed terror on for causing what he calls back and death. how we deal with the red probably we want to very well with them but that's ok too. they've got to understand. life because i don't think they do understand if you look at what's happening in the middle east with syria with yemen with all of the places they're involved it's bedlam and and we can't allow that to happen another statement from trump and we're in for another treat it so juicy you can't help but savor it let's take it from the top we'll see how we do with the rare probably we want to very well with them but that's ok too of course he probably won't do very well with iran he just we may go on

a deal that let the country's economy breathe more freely for the first time in decades and by a chain reaction trump probably won't get along with a bunch of other countries either yes all those nations who decided to stay in the deal reiterating their support for it did trump see this coming the rift with his own allies probably doesn't matter that much after all the america first mantra go trump elected and if you don't get it you're in for a life lesson they. understand. life because i don't think they do understand like we keep pedia has a whole article on american exceptionalism and this tirade could very well at a section to it we get it mr trump you say understand life we here understand how america wants it and roll over and play and here's why according to trump everyone should be on board with his iran decision if you look at what's happening in the

middle east with syria with yemen with all of the places they're involved it's bedlam and and we can't allow that to happen what a set of arguments apparently it's ok to support saudi arabia and their bombings of yemen a deadly come pain there. resulted in the world's worst man made him in a terran crisis all courtesy of american weapons american logistical support and american intelligence and with syria i must have missed the moment when iran joined the u.s. in sending money and weapons to jihadist armed groups seeking regime change trump has laid out a list of demands to iran most notably he called on to iran to drop the quote quest to destroy israel an explicit indicator of who trumps trying to court here and this is how we run feels about trump's move. in the in the.

and the american flag isn't the only thing in tatters now so is the iran nuclear deal which has left europe squabbling for response one thing is clear though they won't be taking a leaf out of donald's art of the deal no one whether it's in europe with us on the korean peninsula with us in the middle east anywhere in the world can trust the united states given in to march undertaken by washington should go to iran this is a kind of swirl dispute fashion in washington by this administration which i have to see is more regular in a sections of our monthly a crane family than it is of any government soon after tarpon and the u.s. would pull out of the iran deal israel launched a major strike against iranian outposts in syria iran sixty rockets were fired from

jets and ten missiles from the ground all aimed at targets in the disputed golan heights israel's prime minister binyamin netanyahu says the country is determined to destroy iranian forces in syria. you handled stock of a bomb iran crossed a red line our response was in accordance with that the i.d.f. carried out of very extensive strike against iranian targets in syria our policy is clear we will not allow iran to establish itself militarily in syria look at the normal observe it. r.t. arabic. in damascus and television based arrive eve gave us more details on the airstrikes here in the most what we could be able to witness that action aired where. israeli missiles in the sky over them i suppose a syrian military source announced that the army's air defense zone tens of israeli

missiles some of that missiles. to hit destroy some all three an army sports leg that one bought from air defense to the only one we did but israel says this was as a retaliation to iranian rockets fired towards the northern golan heights now israelis seem to have gone into shelters while this happened there were sirens here in israel defense minister victor lieberman. has spoken today in a press conference saying that iranians should be aware because if there will be rain here in israel there will be a flood over there in syria and iranian areas nobody wants a conflict nobody wants war but everybody does seem to want to defend israel's borders. british prime minister to reason may has apologized

unreservedly to the libyan dissident and his wife the government admits state actions contributed to the couple's detention transferred to libya and tortured by colonel gadhafi forces will also receive half a million pounds in compensation. was the leader of an anti government group which had ties to al qaida he fled libya in two thousand and one and claims the british secret services helped gadhafi capture him in two thousand and four he spent six years in a libyan jail claiming he and his then pregnant wife were subjected to torture and for that the british government has now officially apologized. the prime minister has now written to them both to apologize on behalf of her majesty's government i apologize reservedly we are profoundly sorry for the ordeal that you both suffered and our role in it. there's been

a lot of reporting on the story not that much background detail on the man at the center of it. bell had she is now a prominent libyan politician but while moammar gadhafi was still in power he was a prominent anti gadhafi the opposition leader and a leading member of an anti gadhafi militia as well which is called the libyan islam mick fighting group the l i f g just a little bit more information about this group the ally f. g. it operated from one thousand nine hundred five until last year it was considered an al qaeda affiliate and the group stage three attempts to assassinate gadhafi himself so a pretty violent organization so much so that it was regarded as a terrorist group by the u.k. and the u.s. nevertheless despite his checkered past shall we say and his wife have been on a quest for an apology from the british government ever since he was released from

prison six years ago and documents discovered after the fall of gadhafi revealed that british m i six agents were involved in bell kidnapping so the kidnapping took place in two thousand and four in thailand belle hodges wife fatima was four months pregnant at the time and cia and m i six agents together kidnapped kidnapped them and handed them back over to the gadhafi government where bell hard claims he was then imprisoned and tortured for six years his wife fatima was released after four months just before she gave birth they've managed to get the british government's top lawyer jeremy right to come out in parliament today to apologize so publicly to them on behalf of the government they were handed a letter written by. the prime minister herself saying that the intelligence here

intelligence services here in the u.k. got it wrong that they apologize unreservedly and even awarding half a million pounds compensation to bell hard his wife fatima for the psychological trauma that she experienced as a result of the ordeal. broadcaster john gold believes relations between libya and the u.k. over the last two decades must be taken into account in this case. they made the mistake of tipping off good afterward was not good at the time this was just before tony blair at that big meeting in the tent will get a free good laugh it was on our soil this was before we decided to remove our free and called all the trouble that we've had since including the kind of mass migration that we haven't seen since biblical times so you know we've got to remember the history here and see in context we did call it a terrorist organization many of the people in the organization after the fall of

gadhafi went wrong track how qaeda so we are you could say funding somebody who could have been a al qaeda member the whole thing is. at least six people including two children have been killed in an alleged saudi led airstrike near the rebel held capital sanaa that's according to yemeni officials and warning you may find the following pictures to stopping this building collapsed as a result of the strike you can see rescuers trying to help the victims mostly children who were trapped under piles of rubble local medical officials say the airstrike hit a house and a nearby shop wounding a further six people yemeni journalist hussain al book describes the rescue efforts . so they have targeted. on that as the entire family was living in the entire country was leaving that out of the house of a black man. and they have killed his wife and then to all this just in what you have seen in the video of the four children under the rubble after this i'll get

a coalition fighter jet but event it is secured to come and we have seen in some of this video again which was that i was asking for some water and one of the disk you want to said just give her a little bit of water someone else in the room that is in the other all balled looking for it and he said he's dead one of the little girl was crying and you were saying who is dead who is dead and the other ones they all were. i was just looking for water they said no we will give you a little bit of water you are still injured we need to check you are no i am not injured i am not injured and you can see in the footage that she was really really badly injured by this so called saudi. largely has asked the saudi government to comment on their alleged role in the air strike and they have yet to respond the saudi led operation in yemen is and the rebels who control widescale territories in the north korea has repeatedly insisted they do

not target civilians the coalition says it investigates and strikes that result in civilian casualties human rights groups continue to call for saudi arabia to end its role in the conflict hussein algo highty claims the us supplied the bomb coalition used in the latest strike. the u.s. ambassador to the united nation she is only caring about what type of missile does the whole. blame in iran for supplying these missiles but on the other hand she is totally forgetting that this type of bombs this this bomb called blue ninety seven b. this is a cluster bomb the only company that i mean i have a blockade in yemen the only fighter jets that are that are on the sky in yemen they are so over the fighter jets that are a fuel by jet they just love money they want just to continue selling weapons to make money and this is. how democracy exists in the united states and united

kingdom is bicillin y.b. to dictatorship like saudi arabia to kill yemeni civilians or to kill any other civilians that in syria. donald trump's controversial pick for cia director has been crowed at a senate confirmation hearing trina hospital was quizzed over her alleged involvement in the torture of terror suspects the session was interrupted by protesters to not answering the nominee. well the feeling. was that was. was. i was. was going to get the right stuff resisting my many racetracks and. never stop resisting was give me the city has stopped hurting me and i don't judge . well the man in that video wrestled to the

ground by security and then scorch it out his seventy nine year old cia veteran ray mcgovern he was drunk out of the hearing off to denouncing hospital for her role in torturing terrorism suspects mcgovern was charged with resisting arrest and disrupting congress while greeting his supporters outside the courthouse he just played bruises on his hands which he said were inflicted during his arrest the government was stunned that he was taken into custody. i was in shock. you know. this may be hard to believe but i took the chairman at his word he said if you have something to say and it was so it is so that if it is about it you know if you have something to say i will say it. briefly and then leave well i said it but my god that's when you ask me what happened i remember that well you know if this happen to me. well cia's controversial and hans interrogation program was the

main focus of possible senate grilling and although she promised on to her leadership the agency wouldn't we started some key questions seem to be dogged at the hearing. do you believe the program in terms that you get interrogation program was consistent with american values we have decided to hold ourselves to a stricter moral standard are they consistent with american values senator i believe very strongly in american values i want to trust that you have the moral compass that you said you have i have conducted myself honorably and in accordance with u.s. law do you believe that the previous interrogation techniques were immoral what i believe sitting here today is that i support the higher moral standard we have decided to hold ourselves to answer the question. and i think i've answered the question if not as trumps a nominee for cia chief goes through the confirmation process it's pretty clear that she's got some secrets she'd rather hide as

a cia agent with over thirty years of experience in the organization she engineered interrogation techniques like waterboarding and she played a role in the destruction of interrogation tapes now the democrats say that they've got a lot of questions they'd like to have answered not to mention the human rights activists who asked her those questions directly but trump has said similar things himself and he has her back jeanna housefull has had practically every senior position in the cia's headquarters she's currently the acting director of the cia i knew her when she was the chief of staff in the counterterrorism center she's been in the senior intelligence service for decades but i think that she's not qualified to lead the cia because the actions that she took during the dark period of the cia's torture program disqualify her she has been doing literally everything she can think to do other than telling the truth about the cia's torture program

to get this job tina haskell had the opportunity to say the right thing that this was a dark period in u.s. history people made mistakes the program was immoral it was illegal it was unconstitutional she never said any of that. well a recent poll suggests only a third of americans believe hospital's alleged involvement in torture makes her unfit for the cia post but we went on to the streets of new york to see what people there think. no no no please so you're more immoral it's pretty cruel and wrong i don't think it's morally morally right. for was going to stop a terrorist attack it would be all right i don't like that. but i don't claim to understand why or how it sometimes sort of might be necessary if it kept americans

you know here safe from terrorism or information leading to any really terroristic activities of course. now one state in the u.s. is encouraging people to take a different approach to raising children with so-called free range parenting. has brought into laura new bill that amends the definition of the term neglect according to the new legislation kids can now be a little more independent they can go to school nearby facilities by themselves as well as play outdoors unsupervised and their parents will be prosecuted for leaving a child in a car or time unintended founder of the free range kids movement lenore skenazy says it's time things were changed. there was a very famous case about four years ago now where parents let their children ages ten and six walk home from the park somebody saw the children thought it was so unusual that they were there without a parent that they called the cops and the caps came to the home of the couple and

they were investigated for neglect that took several months and in the meantime they were investigated again for letting their kids do it again walk home from a park and they were saying this is our right we as parents think that our children are ready for this we know the neighborhood we know our kids we love our kids more than anybody knocking on the door so why are you investigating as for giving our kids some old fashioned freedom or critics say problems arise as the definition of neglect is fake under u.s. laws and there is depending on each state some rule that youngsters can't be left in a vehicle or at home alone others define neglect as the failure to provide appropriate supervision but that brings into question what appropriate means the norse canarsie launched the free range kids movement after she faced a strong backlash for letting her son ride new york's underground train system on his own she ended up being branded america's worst mum. so the whole idea of free

range kids began ten years ago when i let my nine year old ride the subway here in new york city and i'm a newspaper columnist i wrote a column about it and two days later i was on every possible talk show defending the idea that kids can do some things on their own we've really come to the point in america where seeing a child doing anything on their own without a parent or without an adult without a coach or a teacher or a knee any or a babysitter is considered somewhat unusual because we become so afraid we we really started believing that anytime a child went outside they were going to be kidnapped we just watched a lot of t.v. and see on t.v. and people really got it in their mind that that was happening and always being with our children and always hovering over them we're actually not allowing them to develop the sixth sense of how to take care of themselves and how to get out of some arguments and rotten situations or if they get lost and how to find their way and that is part of growing up part of growing up is learning to deal with

something other than sitting in the back seat being driven somewhere so we say we're keeping our kids safer but actually we're stunting them. israel has revoked a work permit for the director of human rights watch the authorities said the decision was based on a dossier compiled on his activities over the course of a decade to care reports on israel and the palestinian territories for the rights group and just held his post since april last year israel has given him fourteen days to leave the country to care told r.t. the real motive behind the decision was to muzzle criticism of the israeli government. their reality is all of the allegations in the dossier relate to human rights activities many of which took place years ago before i joined human rights watch when i was a student in university and the reality remains that even according to the interior ministry neither i nor human rights watch promote boycotts human rights watch is an

organization that covers over ninety countries across the world we've won a nobel peace prize you know for efforts we document abuses not only by israel but also by the palestinian authority and by hamas this is the first time of course human rights watch that israel has ordered human rights official out of the country who've been working here for nearly three decades i met a fifty plus year occupation characterized by systematic rights abuse and institutional discrimination so the real aim is clear it's to muzzle dissent where he writes won't says this isn't about the director himself but about shattering the organizations activities in israel it also says it supports the director and will fight for the decision to be reversed she thinks the organization will push on with his work regardless of any obstacles. barring me from operating here will not stop our reporting we'll continue to document rights abuses and be vocal about the right

situation on the ground but i think it's a very worrying signal guarding where israel is and is going we intend to challenge a decision before an israeli district court. and we intend to continue to raise pressure not only to reverse this decision but also to rescind the law that calls for ban the entry of activists with fully anticipate that that decision over your first and then i will be permitted term in the country. now with a month to go until football's world cup look at one thing from moscow has won the russian premier league title for the third time and dotty's able to. look president about his club's victory and his thoughts on the big upcoming tournament here in russia. why is it a good idea to come to this country for the world cup for us that will be coming not to the country but to the world cup to be part of the huge just. football event

in the world to be the part of world cup it's usually it's. about unity then to go to to visit russia to visit to look at the our beautiful country i believe people still worry that russian saddles are trouble makers do you think any issue like that will still come up during the world cup no i think not i think i think that we will have absolutely in no problems here in russia russian four billion and the place where they made to tremendous job to prevent it to influence the people so i personally believe that everything will be absolutely quiet and calm for us it's a dream too to hold this kind of event is a dream for every russian food lovers and i believe the most most countries of food bloggers. i'll do that with headlines in just over half an hour for more on all of

our stories com. disappointing to know that armenia is not ukraine or georgia and that our experience is unique to certain extent we're building on the success and the fielder's of past efforts to address the issues that you're talking about so in many ways we have a leg up on anything that's been tried in the past this is not just a democrat grassroots effort by the armenian people for the armenian people. don't trump claims he's the master of the deal but when it comes to iran it is the art of no deal trump claims he has made america say.
