personally he will be watching this vote carefully and has requested our report back on those who voted against us thank you for your consideration and more more questions are being aust if the current violence that we witnessing is a response to the embassy me well then just how exactly does the american president try to think that he is going to cut as he has said the deal of the century between israelis and palestinians the palestinian envoy to the un says the security council is now set to hold an emergency session within the next twenty four hours over all this and an israeli military spokesman said the i.d.f. is trying to minimize casualties and stop the gaza border fence being breached he blamed hamas which controls gaza for inciting violence and encouraging people to attack the israeli border our message to the hamas is clear we will not tolerate this violence we will continue to defend all sovereignty our civilians and our border we will do so while trying to minimize the amount of casualties but we will not let the rioters through and to harm israeli civilians that are
6:31 pm
a running distance away the embassy move apparently mean so much to the israeli government that the u.s. president said name and face and pairing in all sorts of unlikely places want to create peace between israel and the palestinian issue. we'll have more live coming on this for the neither citizen of the news next though
6:32 pm
u.s. special forces soldiers subjected himself to waterboarding to try and show that it's not a form of torture to him kennedy posted a facebook video of being mocked drowned basically and then explained his main reason for doing it imagine me having attended it does this look like torture to you guys it doesn't look like torture to be either the reason we're doing this at a big. hero is readied for our there's been reportedly the director the cia but kennedy's stand there isn't proving convincing to everyone here's some of the online reaction over it if waterboarding wasn't torture then the be no reason to do it i was a navy pilot and went to the e.r. in one nine hundred eighty one waterboarding east orchard waterboarding is not torture it's just a process replicating the sensation of being ground to inflict physical and psychological pain in a prisoner in order to extract information so get totally different from torture.
6:33 pm
if you need a recap of this waterboarding as an interrogation technique that has been used by the cia many human rights groups around the united nations say it does amount to torture it can cause serious health consequences like brain lung damage and even death worse the newly appointed cia director mentioned in tim kennedy's video that has been widely criticized over this kind of thing after allegations of her involvement in interrogation techniques including waterboarding was more president trump who chose for the job is often said that torture works former guantanamo detainee was them begged thinks she's unlikely to be investigated over her alleged involvement in torture techniques while donald trump's in charge. all in all this was that she was a great at that for all of that torture tapes of the torture of the survey that came in the shooting were torture in the place that she ran in thailand she's a great advocate for these torture tapes to being destroyed and that happened and
6:34 pm
or violence watch because obama said that no matter who the torturous were and what they did we will no longer torture at night with any torture is that really for the prosecutor so essentially that's why you have a president today says i believe torture works and can have an advocate on behalf of a woman who is implicated in torture and she knows for a fact that she has nothing to worry about because there will be no charges brought against her for these terrible war crimes. twenty eighteen football world cup exactly one month away now britain's best selling newspapers warning firms to expect a bruising from bare knuckle fight as this and it's used a series of pictures by a serbian photographer would be working here in moscow for an article i lighting out supporters should expect a hostile welcome the photographer though says his work's been taken out of context daniel hawkins takes a closer look. as thousands of england fans pack their bags for russia this summer
6:35 pm
it seems one thing they won't be needing are travel guides forget trip advisor or lonely planet the sun has all the crucial info along with a handy photo guide it's not for the faint hearted though ultraviolence images ahead of the world cup uses some pretty hard hitting photos from a twenty fifteen project by a serbian photographer known as boogie well the images and captions certainly make an impression nationalistic pro-government messages labeled this photo of army cadets a tattooed pensioner next men drinking and smoking in broad daylight a woman with a bruised face perhaps a victim of those very russian football folks with a few references to ultras and drinking thrown in the article then finishes with a classic touch lytle makes for a pretty grim picture of the upcoming world cup although some comments under the piece certainly do seem to disagree i would invite the sun to roam around some of
6:36 pm
america's inner cities in the heartland cleveland detroit chicago baltimore and take pictures that night report back on what you find if you still are absolutely nothing connecting any of these photos with football hooliganism to men share a smoke and a beer in broad daylight oh my god satan so let's assume for just a moment these are all russian bots and trolls don't take their word for it we caught up with the photographer himself to see what he made of the sun story clearly. and that really trusted. that article would be it would be a wrong move. soon it would be anything where i don't know. how wrong he was context is everything and looking at that article those found some of football trips even more like a nightmare journey to more door. fact
6:37 pm
is the we're shooting the received things. out i think even if i shoot flowers and it's going to look dark it's not going to get the real situation is going to perfectly suit literally rolled up me and if you will see a mask don't get us wrong these tough been portrayed as are a stark reality of what you can find here in russia as in every major world city but how does that relate to football and many would agree that tabloid press pieces should be taken with a pinch of salt but this article is just one drop in the ocean of stories featuring the horrors of russia and its football thugs waiting around every corner to jump unsuspecting visitors although none of that seems to have put off the tens of thousands of foreign fans who've snapped up their tickets and will arrive here in just a few weeks from now we've put the petard refers claims to this newspaper and forward his request to have the article removed if anyone at the paper gets back to us
6:38 pm
we'll of course let you know what the outcome is a lot more comes close to eighty minutes past eight o'clock moscow time on the way the big story today what's happening in jerusalem got live comment on that just ninety seconds away. as some officials do not. fully understand or don't know fully accept the principle of football being beyond politics that's a fundamental principle of the of the world for both. it was read that some people may have opinions but it's their own opinions and doesn't influence opinions of the many other for bill fans through or buying tickets every day in large volumes.
6:39 pm
what politicians do sometimes because. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and. somehow want to. have to try to be for us this is what before three of them all can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters about how. this should. i get this starting to national back then as proxy for the break to the top story today the big news that the violence has resulted from it was said that was going to happen and it has from the united states controversial move of its israeli embassy to jerusalem there are over four o'clock local time there it's official open just a few hours ago we know with a london viewer abdel bari atwan he was born in gaza and is the guy behind the
6:40 pm
london based news website royal you pay there you're looking on with some depression i can guess today i mean it was forecast that this was going to be a rough week coming up in that whole area anger an arrest was always expected could more have been done to avoid it do you think on the israeli side me even on the good on the garza side has to be said. well i believe it is extremely provocative from the american to move their embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem in such a critical time of the whole of the middle east i believe that this kind of move actually destroyed the peace process completely and could ignite a lot of trouble not only on the occupied territories but also in the whole of the middle east we witnessed what happened in gaza about fifty two people were shot dead by the israelis was when they were armed completely and they were demonstrating peacefully on the other side of the fence the border between the two
6:41 pm
gaza strip and israel so it shows to you this kind of massacre actually is creating a lot of radical an atmosphere on both sides of those of the palestinian territories whether there was i guess what i'm going to say on the list in the inside of the arctic would be i guess what i'm trying to say is we knew this would happen a report on this kind of thing a week in week out on armed protesters on the palestinian side or being shot at with live ammunition we knew today particularly would be a hot spot should guard the palestinians have done more to try and say to their guys look we know you're really unhappy about this but if you go near there you are going to get shot and killed. here but you know dog doo american for example or the british or russian shoot at peaceful demonstration on the streets or the squares of london or paris or mosco for example you know what kind of harm those core those of this kind of peaceful the ministry to will doing
6:42 pm
today israeli who are all there are armed to their teeth you know so this is one thing second thing if those people are injured which i believe not because they are on the other side of that border and that they don't have knives in all rocks or anything what you know they could actually confront them with wrap up wallets for example with more water guns for example why there are timing to live ammunition against peaceful demonstrators and we will listen to you know the community of the center national other human rights organization who deplored that these kind of massacre with unjustified and undefendable so i think there's really honestly using the maximum of power of live ammunition against peaceful people and we have to remember that gaza is under israeli sanction there are two million actually starving no one medicine no hospital no freedom of leaving that place so it
6:43 pm
shows to you that what do you expect those people who are changed and this one hundred and fifty square miles and gaza strip. leave it there are when i turn chiefland a place these web sites are all you think of putting your point so strongly across thank you. you're the big cities before i say goodbye this hour authorities in the indonesian city of sarah buyer say a family of five was responsible for that suicide attack at the police h.q. earlier it came after three churches were also bombed there on sunday the c.c.t.v. camera footage capturing the moment of the most recent attack in which at least six civilians and four officers were reportedly wounded police say an eight year old daughter of the perpetrators survived the blast now it's believed those explosions that targeted the church goers on sunday were also the work of one single family two thirty were killed in that incident dozens more injured islamic state taken responsibility for the attacks but so far no one's claimed the latest explosion the
6:44 pm
director of the unesco child and family research center told us he's extremely alarmed by the involvement of young people known such atrocities. is a possibility that could be replicated in other countries i mean obviously it is very very disturbing and very upsetting and very disconcerting that this is happening but you're still millions and young children involved in attacks. but as you know having so not the issue of child soldier it is not something new unfortunately in civic society it's only one of the litter the one thing we do know that is a deterrent is the whole issue of conversation and we need to have conversations to understand better why it is that people feel there are so didn't put it they've been radicalized or for whatever reason they feel there are soldiers and within families you know and in some cases it may be that children are not willing members in these attacks but we need to understand more about what's going on that is extremely urgent that's the route for now just a quick reminder keep course all the latest from jerusalem tonight and all the rest
6:45 pm

6:46 pm
a nice luxury watch for max and for stacy oh beautiful jewelry how about. home luxury automobile again for a match you know what money laundering is highly illegal thank you so much guys of course. the united states can always had a tool to use in its tax on other countries. economic sanctions are often just the beginning another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries attorney talking about. and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. we have a responsibility for the home. and we need to make rules for the rest.
6:47 pm
because without us there will be chaos. for a world cup twenty eighteen coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all judges but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. you guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star among us and the huge amount of pressure you have to put me to the center of the beach hotel with you and we'll show you all the great game the greatest good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get the ball going let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join the team for the two thousand and three in the world cup in russia meet the special one it was also cliche of me to just say the radio
6:48 pm
theology team's latest edition may go up as we go so i need to just say look. this manufactured team sentenced him to the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the find. the roots to. delete.
6:49 pm
them to sophie and co i'm so sweet shaver not set this face our world cup world's biggest sporting spectacle is coming to russia teams from all over the planet will defeat out for the colored uprising stadiums from the black sea to the baltic. just one month ago how ready is the country for once in a lifetime event well i ask i. had only twenty eight hundred face i want cup russia
6:50 pm
organizing committee. as kickoff for the twenty eighteen feet for world cup i just closer russian cities are going through last minute adjustments and checkups making sure everything is up to standard to welcome the world to sports greatest tournaments from. availability to free intercity trains to scald free tickets and more and stadiums every three world cup ready to russia's chance to shine what is new and unique about this year's championship and is the country well prepared to handle the unprecedented influx of tourists for the competition. and it's really great to have you on our program today welcome thank you right so you took part in preparations for the sochi olympics obviously the world cup in terms of infrastructure in terms of scale a much bigger thing eleven cities twelve stadiums does it make the world cup more complex organizational kind of you. well we traditionally did not compare the two
6:51 pm
events they are very different one is multi-sport event and one city we have a single sport event which is scattered throughout european part of russia but. it is it is complex it is indeed multifaceted it involves a lot of fans who come to russia who want to see great football inside russia russian citizens. in general almost three million tickets are distributed for the world cup so it is a grand event you seem very calm and confident during one of the operational visits to russia fifth officials were saying while washing facilities were progressing on track but the devil is in they tell us what details do they mean and what kind of details do the general public miss oh it's hard for me to say which because they meant that the world cup is about details world cup has very specific requirements
6:52 pm
for all the venues for all stadiums. regular studios which are used for the. national league games they could not instantly host the world cup they need additional preparation for the need of the patient. and that's what we're doing right now all the stadiums are ready and that will finish adaptation work for for the world cup itself the decoration of the stadiums the fine tuning the stadiums and there will be completely ready for the world cup but so this is happening do you have a wake last minute catastrophists that you had to deal with i mean we always say not going to see this in the news like something that you can look back and laugh right now behind the scenes stuff. catastrophe would be very strong words but. usually something happens yes we do we think that we. undertook as much precautions as we could. we hope that everything will go into the plan but usually
6:53 pm
something happens yes we we've seen big football tournament where. pictures have been replaced between the matches we've seen. in the past matches that were delayed or or even removed postponed. but we have nothing is like that happens that russia will cook during the test runs the new stadiums on a show for the world cup have seen enormous queues and traffic going in and out are going to make sure that the fans are going to be watching the game from the queue and staff their seats while in every city we have a very detailed the very thought through transport plan. whom. this plan will be tested during three matches which will take place at every city before the world cup. these test matches are a good indication to us whether it be our plans work whether any of the venue works
6:54 pm
in general for a big crowds of people or then if something doesn't work would change it but usually we would come fully prepared you saw luzhniki how would some fruit over two matches. the same thing will happen with every stadium so the white house has issued a travel warning for fans going to the world which was. the american white house washington at fifa pat says and the russian officials are saying that the security situation is under control so tell me do americans know something we don't get i believe. you know security situation is indeed under control we have a very robust security concept every law enforcement agency is part of it it's part of its inclination to the implementation or we we have tested our security abilities during confederation's cup everything worked so we have no reason to believe why it shouldn't or during during the world cup and get it set up
6:55 pm
multiple international events there were no security incidents but also we have a good track record of. being able to organize security and safety for all our guests so if which is put this like the plum diplomatic spat aside and talk seriously terrorism isis has threatened attacks during the tournament what extra anti-terrorist measures are in place with all the proper and to terrorist measures will be in place for sure i cannot tell you the specifics but. that every just should be confident that. all the measures are being taken there is. as a huge effort behind. behind organizing security for everyone. i know that tourist police units will be step list and hosted in some units already
6:56 pm
patrolling moscow how different are they from regular police and what are they going to be doing and it's a new effort we we're also looking at it like anybody else. hopefully there be it's more about the system source rather than policing or taking measures it's about making sure that everybody is comfortable that there is no wishes. that everybody everybody has responses to their questions so we my idea would be that it's more about about assisting and making people comfortable about their visa situation i mean most of the fans and was in the countries they're going to be taking part and the world cup will need business to come to russia like if you go to the embassy and say i'm going to the world cup it's going to be easier to get a visa will be the situation. is very simple we fulfilled our promise to the. was football community. this world cup is visa free.
6:57 pm
people should just get an id and with an idea where they can travel because of free . will they can also present. a substitution of a family to your certificate or even electronic one and they will be let into the country without a visa. found i.d.'s are even sent by mail and it's very simple to apply for it it's free service for every ticket holder and we think it's going to be very convenient for a bill. you're kind of operating in a very on easy political situation coincidentally it just so happens but in the yeah so you get foreign secretary johnson compared the world cup in russia to the nazi olympics in one nine hundred thirty six. does that frustrate your work. for what frustrates us is that some officials do not. fully
6:58 pm
understand or do not fully accept the principle of football being beyond politics that's a fundamental principle of the world for both. of them were agreed that some people may have opinions but it's their own opinions that doesn't influence opinions of many other football fans who are buying tickets every day at large volumes we have very good ticket sales people vote for the world cup in russia with their money on their resume there is even to take a deficit for for certain games and we're certain that the stadiums are full and about take the deficit we're going to get to that but tell me our british fans still buy the tickets yes large numbers decent numbers yes. there was a moment among leaders in europe oh that's amazing but those are also a lot of talk about royal family not coming after this cripple incident and obviously british officials not coming and some of the european politicians also
6:59 pm
said there were income does that i don't know take away from the status of this tournament no it doesn't first every found as equally valuable despite of his professional occupation. it's a personal decision whether whether to come to watch and support your own team or not well we're glad that some people will miss miss out on this opportunity. but for us. it's a personal decision it has no reflection of the water on the world cup itself so one year ago i remember there were football union came up with this idea of gentle fans one russian fans were welcoming brits in rostov with warm blankets and the like that this time around. organize it in summer so no world no warm blankets ok maybe that you know we should we find something else or over or but no there is a traditional. welcome kid by fee for. a certain initiatives that we take.
7:00 pm
to. resolve your fans but. this was a club decision club initiative. of course for world cup was a bigger event for a bigger volumes of people so blankets will not will be used well i don't know russia summers get chilling the evening. most of the rest of it where you have to take a short break right now when we're back we'll continue talking to insist that working chairman and c.e.o. of the russia two thousand and eighteen world cup a local organizing committee stay with us.
