between gaza and israel ahead of the u.s. embassies move to jerusalem. and mark seventy three years since victory in world war two with a record ten million people marching nationwide to honor relatives who fought for freedom. for broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our to internationalize we recap week's top stories with our weekly program and it is being reported to the suspect behind a knife attack in paris on saturday was viewed by french intelligence as a possible threat to national security the man who is thought to have been a chechen born french citizen was shot and killed after he killed a passer by in the city's opera district four others were also injured in the assault two of them seriously this photo was taken from a nearby balcony and it appears to show the. crime scene and this video

has also been circulating in the wake of the incident and shows people fleeing the area in panic and here you can see forensic experts inspecting the site now the attack took place in the center of paris just north of the louvre museum if you can see on the map here it is an area popular with tourists and is teeming with cafes bars and restaurants as it was behind the attack of though that claim remains unverified you see all the reports now from the scene. it was here that the attack took place late on saturday evening in the very busy opera district of paris people were shouting for the police and we saw a guy lying on the street right on the cross walk with blood on his shirt with i had been run over or maybe. and it took us a little while to figure out he had maybe been stabbed in the course of that attack

the police fired shots in order to kill the terrorists and actually we can see some of the bullet holes in one of the ball windows some news has emerged of the terrorists who carried out that attack he's thought to be a chechnyan who received french citizenship in two thousand and ten and interestingly he was known to police he had been put on a list of people who had known extreme views and that follows a pattern we've seen repeatedly. many instances of people who have carried out terrorist attacks they've been known to police and once they've carried out those attacks it's then emerged later on and we have seen that there have been meetings held by the interior ministry to try to establish more information about the terrorists who carried out that attack many of those who were present at the time

sought refuge in this restaurant lunch day which is a british restaurant and something which many people have seen here in paris many times before civilians fleeing for safety and ducking into restaurants and bars to get away from danger we were standing in the street looking what was happening and the attacker came down this road here with his hands covered in blood holding a knife. we had three policeman on foot here and he went towards them. they tried to taser him twice didn't work. he did manage to isolate one of them and. moved down the street attacking trying to attack him and there were two shots fired and. he was shot dead two meters in front of the restaurant but it comes on the first anniversary of the eve of the first anniversary of the rule of

a man who will not cross and that would lead presumably to the same questions that will being asked of mr webb doubts are being raised whether he could provide security for france's citizens and mr marquand will be hoping he doesn't face the same accusations well over two hundred people in france have lost their lives to terror attacks since two thousand and fifteen the one which had paris in november of that year what has been the most deadly so far there have also been many sent mauler incident across country like the latest one on saturday night many such cases of both in france and across europe and the perpetrators were actually known to police beforehand. ah ah

. we discussed this with charles shoebridge a security analyst and former counterterrorism intelligence officer he said security services can never be one hundred percent effective at preventing attacks any terror attack getting through is in one way or another a failure of the intelligence services because their primary aim is to prevent these attacks but i want to clear when i want to keep perhaps we should also see

that depending on the circumstances it isn't possible we have to accept that it is impossible to keep everybody under surveillance all of the time you know what anybody would want that situation it may be that there are more deserving suspects of surveillance at the moment but that would depend on the factors that were taken into concert consideration at the time but at the same time there always will be people who will get through especially in a case like this where it hasn't appeared to have any proper preparation or indeed any if you like coconspirators that might have reported on him to the ortho it is the latest terror attack comes just as the french president is preparing to mark his first year in office now in paris thousands have marched against manual pro-business economic reforms protesters say the changes represent an assault on workers' rights is just the latest in a series of rallies across france in recent months a number of which have been marred by violence and clashes with police.

relations between the u.s. and europe suffered a major blow this week after donald trump ended u.s. participate participation in the iran nuclear deal and according to trump's national security adviser you companies could even face sanctions if they continue doing business with iran is the u.s. going to impose sanctions on european companies that continue to do business with iran i think it would give the answer you say the answer is it's possible it depends on the conduct of other governments. donald trump announced on tuesday that he is pulling the u.s. out of the nuclear agreement with iran sparking anger among e.u. leaders. i am announcing today that the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal. and i think it is not right to you know let's really cancel a deal that was agreed upon screening and shouting insulting and bullying that diminishes confidence in the international order systematically destroying and

dismantling everything what do we want to be able to be blinded to what americans tell them if you can if we always say that if we don't like things and we can't achieve when you international order everyone will do what they feel like that's bad news for the world. the deal was signed in two thousand and fifteen after years of difficult talks as sanctioned sanctions were eased europe started doing business with iran these are some of the major firms likely to take a hit now that the u.s. is withdrawing from the agreement maybe a company air bus faces perhaps the biggest losses to sign contracts worth more than twenty billion dollars with tehran. iranian officials meanwhile have described america's move as unlawful and has said tehran is preparing to restart its nuclear program its president has said though that he will speak with the other signatories to the deal first more details now from artie's you've got to start off. another statement from trump and we are 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 would do 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 is deal is not a bilateral treaty it's a un security council resolution and it belongs to the entire words no single country alone and destroyed a deal of can undo the deal because all the others stay in did trump see this coming the rift with his own allies probably doesn't matter that much after all the america first mantra got trump elected and if you don't get it you're in for

a life lesson they've got to. understand. life because i don't think they do understand why 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 hear 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 there 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 that resulted in the world's worst manmade humanitarian crisis all courtesy of american. 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 him and this is how we run feels about trump's move. and the american flag isn't the only thing in tatters now so is the iran nuclear deal which has left europe scrambling for a response it is never good for us to break the laws that we ourselves helped to create why because how can you convince powers that occasionally use force or

violence that don't respect international law but to follow our example you don't we don't even follow that example sells one thing is clear though they won't be taking a leaf out of donald's art of the deal whole world trust the united states or and their treaty or treaty or a deal with you know that if one president a plaything another president live gate on that deal he for americans trust the american credibility on the line and here that american does not its word. clashes erupted in jerusalem earlier as israeli celebrated the anniversary of the nine hundred sixty seven an accession of the eastern part of the holy city the violence comes ahead what looks said to be a rocky week for the region with the u.s. embassy moving to jerusalem on monday and israel commemorating seventy years since his founding local journalist yale share details.

the was. ever since trump's announcement of the u.s. moving the embassy to jerusalem this past december we've seen heated protests and escalating tensions taking place at the borders palestinians say that the climactic point will take place on tuesday which is not by day on friday there was a huge protest that left two people dead and several dozens injured so we're going to take a look now at what happened. with. the with the. the. the riots have been escalating over the past couple of weeks gaza protesters have

been using kites as weapons sending kites containing grenades and flames across the border a couple of days ago about fifteen thousand palestinians burned tires and threw grenades pipe bombs and stones at i.d.f. soldiers at the gaza border and the idea for spotted with tear gas israel has said it will do whatever it can to defend itself and prevent clashes at the borders there were clashes taking place throughout the day today at the temple mount and all over jerusalem clued in physical altercations that led to several arrests police say people broke the rules of conduct and at the circumstances would be thoroughly investigated the i.d.f. has doubled the amount of troops at the borders the un has voiced concern about israel using excessive force against civilians and i'm particularly worried about today in the coming days with the u.s. embassy move through some of the woman with the planned groups in gaza and take

this opportunity again. to be very careful and calibrated the code uses force in addressing the protestors and goes but also. believes of the protests and goes to prevent friction to prevent situations in which provoke issues can happen the situation is rather heated and we'll have to see what happens in the coming weeks there have also been protests in jerusalem against the relocation of the u.s. embassy opponents of the move see it as legitimizing israel's occupation of the eastern part of the city and reducing the likelihood of a two state solution more demonstrations are expected next week. meanwhile attitudes about the state of jerusalem will be tested this time next year after israel won the euro vision song contest on saturday that means it gets to host of the next event and winning singer neta took the top spot with her song toy which was inspired by the anti harassment of me to campaign which then welcomed everyone

to jerusalem in two thousand nineteen an invite it was echoed by the israeli prime minister bond with feelings running high over the holy city as some people have been voicing their disapproval on twitter. how can you envision celebrate diversity and inclusion when steps away palestinians are getting shot in the head your vision is about to get very ugly absolute joke by the way let's not go to jerusalem until they stop murdering palestinian children israel is celebrating diversity through shooting unarmed protesters in gaza with snipers how will your vision be open for real diversity next year in jerusalem can all city residents celebrate equally unfollowing anyone who says that attend your evasion in jerusalem next year yes yes it's just a music competition i'm sure all of the palestinian children that die in the next year will see the distinction. the spanish region of catalonia failed to elect a new president on saturday came did not get enough votes in parliament because

four members of his party did not show up for the vote however many expect the pro independence candidate to win office and in the next round catalonia has been without a president since october last year after madrid decided to dissolve the regional parliament and to remind you it was then that catalogues held a referendum on whether they wanted to be independent from spain vote was dubbed illegal by madrid police used force against people and whine at the polls leaving some nine hundred injured hundreds handling of the cattle on crisis has been widely criticized.

meanwhile the spanish chapter of amnesty international has released a new report accusing madrid's prosecutors are showing a lack of interest in investigating the police actions against voters or human rights watchdog says spanish prosecutors disqualify complaints hindering authorities from looking into the facts and also says that rubber bullets allegedly used by police during the referendum clashes should be banned back in october madrid's representative apologized for the excesses of officers during the vote thomas harrington professor of hispanic studies at trinity college thinks amnesties report makes clear who was to blame for the violence. we're seeing here is the senate's judicial already has been highly politicized over several years and it is now being beginning to run up against the reality of international institutions. so

this is a going on for a number of years you know and what has happened in madrid is that there is a media reality that says that the catalans are the people that are using going to us when in fact it's just the opposite and so the spanish authorities have no interest in discovering or duty their own uses violence which in fact is the only going to that it's been used to process it's really a sort of case of self induced delusion that is now coming to our. service such as in this international in the international troops to get a better all of what was going on and what is going on. on wednesday russia marked victory day and the defeat of nazi germany in the second world war the anniversary is considered particularly important because the war claimed more than twenty six million soviet lives there is almost no family that was not affected to honor those who served a special event known as the immortal regiment march is held every year.

horrifying chapters of the war was the siege of leningrad which is modern day st petersburg the city was completely surrounded by german forces for eight hundred seventy two days because of the blockade all major supply routes were cut off with only one exception the famous road of life running across the frozen lake. you. we know that you're good it's it was june and we blocked out dutch and then my dad appeared with a changed look on his face and said it's war but i'd like to discuss it i had never had it before my dad gave me a little slap to stop my joking around there's been an accident it's me cicily and

wednesday the u.s. senate intelligence committee held hearings on jena has all who was president trumps nominee to be the new cia director questions focused on her links to the agency's controversial enhanced interrogation program which is widely seen as a torture what are the guys you have has a commentary. trump's really pushing gina haskell is the perfect candidate strong really strong smart tough and with thirty years of judy behind so why all the hate one highly respected nominee for cia director gina her support has come under because she was too tough on terrorists tough and terrorists meaning she ran

a secret cia detention said she there was under reportedly tortured prisoners by the way the videotapes which allegedly documented some of the most horrific torches were destroyed by the cia committed a crime when she destroyed these tapes that crime at the very least is obstruction of justice the crime also is to classify a crime it's actually illegal in the united states to classify something just because it's embarrassing or because it's a crime that's what she should be answering to why did she destroy the evidence now gina who apparently had no problem torturing tied up suspects is allegedly squeamish about the confirmation hearing all those tough questions in public do you believe the program in terms that 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

incriminating evidence on jena asked for secret so that the american people couldn't see on t.v. that she was indeed the torture in chief. in thailand make it go to the close session that was too much and that's why i got up and i said that i said senator wyden is entitled to a direct to an honest answer on that question fortunately those resisting the loan . protesters place all across the country they're facing charges. felony counts. and brutalized by the police certainly coming to our surgeon and he needs to be stopped one hundred nine retired generals and admirals have urged the u.s. senate to reconsider given had ties to you know torturing human beings but make no
